President’s Corner
Dear Spouses,
Another month come and gone! October is a great month. The Navy Birthday Ball is this month! I wish I could see you all dressed up, but as you are reading this, I am in Minnesota and will be until the 13th. Take lots of pictures, I would love to see them!
Also this month, Mr. Day has offered his time to give us a little question and answer session/TACAMO 101! This is a great opportunity (for ALL spouses… even if you have been to one before) to find out a little more about what our spouses do. It is on October 14th at 6:00 PM in the Ready Room at the squadron. Let me know if you are planning on attending so I can get a list together so we can get through security at the turnstiles!
Attached to the newsletter you will find the most updated copy of the spouse’s roster. Please check it and send me any changes/updates. I hope you all have a great month! I look forward to see you all soon!
Take care,
Erika Jepperson

Happy Fall Ladies! The cooler weather is approaching and I am glad to be out of the 100ยบ days. Next weekend, the Oklahoma Navy League will be hosting the 2010 Navy Ball. It is quite an event (the largest in the country!) and the ballroom at the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum is really lovely. I'm looking forward to seeing all of you there all dressed up. Not all duty stations have a Navy Ball like this one, so enjoy it while you can.
The other big event this month is the Spouse's Brief, on October 14th, 6:00 p.m. at the squadron's ready room. This is really a great opportunity to get some time with the Skipper, and ask anything you'd like about TACAMO, concerns, ideas, questions or even get some insight on what might be next. He'll answer anything and everything he can and has been really looking forward to talking with you! Please do what you can to take advantage of this opportunity, and remember, what is talked about in the ready room, stays in the ready room!
I'm here if you need anything. Supporting our VQ-4 spouses is our number one priority. You're not alone.
Wishing all of you the best,
Eva Day
