Single Sailor Bags - Cub Scouts - Colin Football

The Squadron makes up "goodie" bags for all the single sailors returning from the ship.  They contain one microwave meal, chips, candy, water and most important 3 laundry pods and dryer sheets so they can wash the "smell of the ship" out of their clothes.
We got to help distribute them this year...great fun! There were 189 of them as I recall.  Some of the guys from the hanger came over to help some of the ladies from the FRG.  The distribution went really fast/  I guess last year there were two different squadrons in this barracks building, but this year only one.
The FRG (Family Readiness Group) folks really take care of the whole squadron family!!  Great work!!

Then Jill dropped us off and headed for Cub Scouts.  They were going to visit the TV station for their Communications Patch.  They got home and then headed to Colin's Flag Football practice.  Busy day with school and homework too.  Nice to kick back a little bit though.  This place is exhausting!!
