Volunteering in your community

I can't begin to say it enough...be a volunteer in your community! Not only does it give you a sense of accomplishment it also helps out the local community in so many ways!

Today I attended a luncheon given in honor of the military members and military dependents that volunteer their time to the local community. There we a lot of people there and a lot more who were unable to attend at this luncheon. What a wonderful way to recognize those that do so much for the community be it organizing sports games, scouts, volunteer their time though the local schools, library, humane society, through their squadrons and more. Colonel Alexander of the Mission Support Group was our key speaker and let me be the first to say WOW! I find Colonel Alexander to be an inspiring role model for women of all age groups. Hands down, Mission Support Group is the Heart of this base! I'm proud to be a part of the military community here at Ellsworth AFB and a part of the Mission Support Group. We (the volunteers) received a certificate of appreciation with our names on it and beautiful picture frame from Hallmark, I love it and now am looking for a 5x7 photo to put in it :-)
