California Guard - Family Support Group Training

We've been busy for the last few weekends!

Karen is the Family Support Group Leader for Jeff's California Guard Company. November 18-19, we went to Sacramento so she could get some formal training and ideas for running the group. All military branches have Family Support Groups or Family Readiness Groups, or a family group with a similar name. These were all set up during the last Gulf War as a way of getting family support and communication. The group is an important part of each military group as its the way the family members can communicate with command. Its also a great way to make friends!

We met people from units from all over state. Karen was invited to be part of the state Family Support Group Council.

Sorry, no pictures from this weekend. It was just classroom stuff...
