At both the local level, and as a partner in the national network of Canadian Armed Forces’ MFRCs, volunteers are “working hard to make sure we’re working for the bene-fi t of our military families,” said GMFRC board president Kathryn Dalton, opening the GMFRC’s annual meeting June 19.

~ Obituary ~CARR, David George,

CARR, David George – Age 76 of Greenwood, NS passed away peacefully on Friday, June 15, 2018 at home surrounded by his family. Born in Saint John, NB he was a son of the late Raymond and Wilma (Spear) Carr. David served 28 and half years in the Royal Canadian Air Force, having been stationed in Shearwater, Greenwood, Ottawa, and Borden, ON where he retired. After retirement he found a second career as an accountant. Later David and Marsha returned “home” to Greenwood.

fall retreat and the Atlantic MFRC conference a few weeks ago. And, from last year, with-in Military Family Services, we’ve been anticipating the results of a governance re-view: governance has been by a board of directors for 25 years, since the beginning of MFRCs – but maybe it’s not the best model.”

Dalton said MFRC repre-sentatives offered their in-sights last fall on three options for governance – including the status quo, and Chief of De-fence Staff General Jonathan Vance is expected to make the fi nal decision in coming months.

The board and MFRC work has also shifted in the past year with the expansion of funding and programs for veterans and their families. Greenwood launched its new Veterans Family Program June 1.

Margaret Reid, the MFRC’s executive director, was un-able to present any staff long service awards at this year’s annual meeting, as she would normally: the MFRC hired for eight positions in the past year, and six of nine program

coordinators are relatively new in their roles.

“We’ve had a lot of new faces through our doors, and the people remaining while we’ve had vacancies have kept programs going,” she said.

The widening of programs for veterans and their families has also been accompanied by more programs for different audiences, Reid said: adults only, single parents, “fun” ac-tivities for children and more.

Through it all, Reid credited wing leadership, the MFRC staff and board, partnering business and community organizations, and volunteers for combined support.

“You all make it possible for us to ‘live the dream,’ and serve the military commu-nity,” she said. “I wish our families could see what we get to see behind the scenes, and what we feel. You all need to realize you are supported.”

14 Wing Greenwood Com-mander Colonel Mike Ad-amson said the reach and success of the Greenwood MFRC really hits home as he travels across Canada and meets other wings’ leadership teams.

“We’re lucky. Coming back to Greenwood for me and

many others is returning to a ‘family.’ We ‘Operate as One’ at the wing level, and we are all in this together – and nothing embodies this better than our MFRC. We have a good organization, and we do a great job here creating a family environment and culture people want to remain a part of.”

Elected for two-year terms on the board of directors were Laura Fox and Kate Archibald, both of whom joined the board in recent months fi lling vacant seats and now taking on more formal appointments.

Financially, the GMFRC finished 2017/ 2018 “in a very good position, said board treasurer Justin Kubis. Mili-tary Family Services provid-ed $865,884 of the MFRC’s total $1.3 million revenue. Program income generated $270,115, and fundraising an-other $8,148. The MFRC spent $159,067 on programs, and had $1,088,157 in expenses, including $642,520 on sala-ries and benefi ts, $292,639 on child care and early ed-ucation salary and benefi ts, $18,232 on professional fees and $18,938 on the board. The MFRC fi nished $64,416 in the black.

A year’s worth of babiesLe 31 mai, le Centre de Ressources pour les Familles Militaires de Greenwood a organisé une fête a fin de célébrer les naissances 2017 et 2018. Une quinzaine de papas et de mamans accompagné de leurs enfants ont profité d’un moment convivial entre parents vivants la même réalité. Surprises, jeux et goûter ont agrémenté de belle façon cette sympathique fête. May 31, the Greenwood Military Family Resource Cen-tre organized a community baby shower to celebrate the newborns of 2017 and 2018. Fifteen dads and moms, along with their babies and their other children, enjoyed a pleasant morning with other parents living the same reality. Surprises, games and snacks were a nice addition to the celebrations. Submitted

The Annapolis Valley Re-gional Library has received a grant in the amount of $24,571 from the federal New Horizons for Seniors Program to provide tools and training to enable se-niors with a print disabil-ity to participate in social programs offered in their community. This project

also aims to help seniors feel comfortable using the technology, and to be safe in that environment.

The p ro j ec t w i l l b e multi-layered, providing not only devices such as DAISY players and tablets, but also the skills to use this technol-ogy. Needs - such as access to reading materials for book

clubs, confidence to use online banking and training - have been identifi ed by AVRL and community groups that work with seniors, and this project will involve groups such as the VON, church groups and senior’s facilities.

Numbers from Statistics Canada suggest about 10 per cent of Canadians may

have a print disability, which limits people’s ability to read in traditional print format. Many people who do not currently have a print disabil-ity will have one in the future. This would mean more than 10,000 individuals have the potential to use service in the area served by the Annapolis Valley Regional Library.

The hub of services for military members and their families that is the Military Family Resource Centre has now grown.

June 1, the Greenwood MFRC launched the start of its Veteran Family Program service, ready to support Veterans Affairs Canada’s April announcement to in-clude medically-releasing and -released veterans and their families in MFRC pro-gramming. This includes new transition programs, referral services and intervention support as members and vet-erans transition from military to civilian life.

Newly-hired Veteran Fam-ily Program coordinator Sar-ah Osborne was on hand, with a room full of displays featuring community part-

ners offering services that will enhance the Veteran Family Program.

“We want to develop strong relationships with our partners – you all provide opportunities for our veterans to re-identify with a commu-nity,” she said. “This will be a safe, supportive and healthy environment for veterans, with a trusted and empathetic listener in the MFRC to sup-port your needs.”

West Nova MP Colin Fraser serves on the national Veter-ans Affairs Committee, and said he is particularly pleased to see this new program launch here in his own riding, but also at 32 MFRCs across the country.

“The MFRCs are absolutely critical in that transition, and we’re opening up MFRCs to veterans and their families,” Fraser said. “Some of the challenges include psycho-

logical issues, fi nances and the stress of leaving the ‘family’ you’ve known in the military. We will be able to spot some of these ahead of time, and put those puzzle pieces of support together. Having families involved in the transition helps veterans’ well-being: they are instru-mental as partners.”

Partners launch veterans’ services, program

At the event were, from left Vet-eran Family Program co-ordinator Sarah Osborne, MFRC executive director Margaret Reid, 14 Wing Greenwood Commander Colonel Mike Adamson and West Nova MP Colin Fraser.

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20Opportunity is knocking, Aries. You must tune in and listen to it this week. Stay passionate in your endeavors, but exercise a little caution as well.TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Taurus, honesty may be the best policy, but you may have to temper how much information you reveal at one time. Be a little stingy around sensitive people.GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, this week may be off to a bumpy start, but you are perfectly capable of turning things around in a hurry. Just don’t race too far ahead without a plan.CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Cancer, you are heading in the right direction, but you may have to fi ne-tune the destination this week. Your intended romantic target may not be the perfect fi t.LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Planning and project management seemingly takes over your life, Leo. Just when you think there is no time for fun, an exciting opportunity falls in your lap.VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22Virgo, your creative muse has come calling and you can’t resist her siren’s song. Dabble in any artistic or crafty project you can get your hands on in the next few days.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23People often see you as even-keeled, Libra. But tempers may fl are this week if you don’t get your way. Others should watch when you’re fi red up.SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Scorpio, cater your plan and speech to the audience receiving it. You can gain more support if your message is well-received. Figure out new ways to communicate.SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21You do not have an argumentative nature, Sagittarius. So when you’re bothered, it is probably for a good reason. Don’t come out ready for a fi ght; instead, focus on mediating.CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Capricorn, your energy is all over the map, so it may be best to schedule any major meetings or presentations for another time when you are more up to the task.AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, it may seem like you’re feeling extreme highs or lows. Soon things will settle down. Enjoy some well-deserved escapism for the time being.PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20This week you will have the ideal blend of patience and passion, which has people lining up to be on your team, Pisces.
