Event Type: Special Atlanta Area Navy For Moms & Dads Dinner with RADM Michael Yurina
Organized by: Diane R

Event Description:
As part of the Atlanta Navy Week (Oct. 11-17, 2010) celebrations, we are excited to schedule a dinner for the Navy for Moms, Dads, new Recruits and their Parents with RADM Michael Yurina, and other Navy officers representing the Navy Recruting Office, a USS Georgia sailor, and a Navy Diver. This will be your opportunity to have your questions answered by a diverse panel of Navy Officers.

The dinner is set for Scalini’s Italian Restaurant and you can order off their Early Dinner Specials ($9.95 plus drinks, tax and tip) or their regular menu. The restaurant will provide individual/family checks for us.

If you plan on attending the dinner, please RSVP directly to me via email including your name and number of people attending. We are limited to 70 attendees. Also, to show how proud we are of our sons and daughters in the Navy - or soon joining the Navy - I will be putting together a slideshow of pictures of our sailors. If you’d like to have your sailor included, please attach your favorite digital (“JPG” version) picture of your sailor in uniform in the email. Also include: his/her full name and rank, current location (base or ship name) and ONE sentence describing what s/he is doing. Please make sure you provide parents’ first and last names and town/state so I can list you as “Proud Parents are...”.

I look forward to seeing you there!

Judyann....so glad that you talked to him and that he is okay. YES, I can imagine that being 2500 miles from him isnt easy. Wonder how a scaffold would catch on fire...maybe they were welding ? I have no clue. I know you must feel SO MUCH better hearing from him :))

Judyann.....im so so sorry to hear that your son was hurt. How did you find out this info on him ? He emailed you ? Yes, I can imagine how upsetting that is to know just little details and having to wait !! Keep us posted ok ? Hugs

Maureen - ours was just in June and it was really impressive and also a very happy time. Have fun! Our son did not want to do too much and we just basically did whatever he wanted to do. Are you going to the meet n greet for your PIR group? We did and met a few people that we then saw a couple times over the weekend. That was nice.

Hello Everyone !!

I vote we all take a trip up to the pacific northwest where its A LOT COOLER !! lol
ROAD TRIP !! lol
Hope everyones weekend is going well. We are having a relaxing day at home. Thought about going to a Civil War Re-enactment today but again, too hot.
Going to play games and watch movies.
Kids were hot on their bus ride home but thankfully its a short ride. Love the idea of handing out water to the ones on a longer bus ride.
My son has had marching band practice as much as they can but now they are behind. Next week, going to have night rehersals.
Take care all and sending hugs.
