    May 23, 2011 /

    Why are some businesses successful at reaching out to the military community? Fantastic Sams shows their colors!We just attended a special event for military spouses at Ft Knox, called a Field Exercise that was a wonderful time! It brought together 300 Army spouses (most had seen their soldier deploy multiple times – some up to six times) and provided them an opportunity to learn coping skills and laugh together about military life and its challenges! AWN Hosted by Tara Crooks and Star Henderson of Army Wife Network, the Field Exercise also gave away some wonderful gifts! Super Military SupportersMilitaryAvenue.com was there as a sponsor and coordinated with three local businesses…

    The REAL “Priceless Packages” at Ft Riley

    May 25, 2010 /

    It is a tough time to be a military family! Period! No ifs; ands or buts! The military members’ multiple deployments to combat zones and the inherent dangers are too frequent with not enough time in between! The Guard and Reserve forces are being over tasked beyond their traditional roles and the active duty forces are seeing multiple deployments while continuing to PCS; do continuation and upgrade training; and respond to contingencies such as Haiti humanitarian relief! So seeing smiles and hearing young Army spouses laughing and giggling during last weeks Army Wife Network’s Field Exercise and their “Priceless Packages” was great! Star Henderson and Tara Crooks led a “seminar”…

    March 5, 2010 /

    Army Proud. Army of One… not for their spouses! We just closed up shop on another ArmyWiveNetwork.com Priceless Package Field Exercise. Say that twice.Starlett Henderson and Tara Crooks put on a show! WOW! Young spouses who are away from home for the first time… with hubs away from them learned how to reach out, talk, react, connect, communicate, laugh, encourage and be encourage and they learned from experienced spouses who have been there done that and bought the tee shirt… but know that deployments NO WAY get easier.

    Exercise Cobra Gold – DoD Roundtable

    February 2, 2010 /

    As the world watches the humanitarian effort in Haiti we have come to appreciate the capability of the U.S. and allied military resources to respond with such effectiveness to a natural disaster of such magnitude. Despite the claims of some the US military was the only force capable of providing relief supplies and medical care on that scale in those conditions. Meanwhile, 12 time zones away the U.S. military continues its efforts to build international support and cooperation with a large scale exercise in Thailand, the site of another catastrophic disaster several years ago when the tsunami struck. The Department of Defense Live (DoDLive) Bloggers Roundtable spoke with Lt. Gen.…

    Planning a “Road Trip”

    April 2, 2009 /

    We are in the process of planning a military road trip! You know one of those multipurpose trips where you see the relatives, attend a military function and end up at another installation! Ours is going to be long one but we learned a few things during a 30 year military family career! We are going to first attend a welcome home for our soldier son in law, Paul, from Iraq near Wright Patterson AFB in Ohio; then visit family in Kentucky (a much loved aunt and uncle with cousins nearby); and then head to Ft Sill in Oklahoma to attend Tara Crooks and Star Henderson’s Field Exercise .
