Happy November Everyone!
We made it through Halloween, so I guess it's officially the beginning of the Holiday Sea-
son! You either love or dread the Holidays (maybe it's actually both!).
November is Military Family Appreciation Month, along with Veteran's Day and Thanks-
giving. Ultimately, the way I see it, it's REALLY a month of being thankful for all of our
Military Families and all of our Service Members. We would not be the Nation that we
are without you and your loved ones.
You'll find a wide variety of information in November's Family Matters newsletter. You'll
see that the Army's Senior Leaders are serious about the important role that Families
play in the war fight, and that taking care of them is 1 of the two things they are commit-
ted to do.
A new advertisement is in this Month's newsletter, Operation Wedding Gown. If you're
about to be a new military bride, please check out page 6.
Our NCNG statewide Teen Councils are really progressing. Wreaths Across American is
their Project. Please support this wonderful effort. Not only does it teach our children
honor and respect, but it will benefit our Kids On Guard program.
In addition, there's some great information about the Y.E.S Project. This is another great
opportunity for hands-on leadership, youth development, group facilitation and project
management experience and training through NC State University.
Check out the 2015 Operation Homefront Military Child of the Year Award infor-
mation. What an amazing opportunity this would be for one of our National Children!
All the States and Territories have been provided with the opportunity to send 1 very
special, handmade ornament from a National Guard Family to the White House to be
used on the President's Christmas Tree. So, be sure to take a look for the exciting infor-
mation on the White House ornament, As well as, information on the opportunity to pro-
vide a Christmas ornament for the Military Tree at The Governor's Mansion.
We hope to receive many beautiful, handmade ornaments from our North Carolinat Na-
tional Guard children, each with a unique story of what they mean to them.
Let me be the first to say "Thank You" for being a very special Military Family! Thank
you for service to your friends, Family, State, and Nation. It does not matter if you wear
a uniform or not, if you are related to any Service member (past or present), YOU HAVE
SERVED! Please remember all those small things that you are thankful for each and
every day. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Sincerely,
Diane Coffill

Army senior leaders vow to take care of Soldiers and their families
By Mr. William P Bradner (FMWRC)
WASHINGTON (Oct. 15, 2014) -- The Army's three most senior officials par-ticipated in a virtual town hall Wednes-day, Oct. 15, as part of the Annual Meeting of the Association of the Unit-ed States Army. The Honorable John M. McHugh, Sec-retary of the Army, joined Chief of Staff of the Army Gen. Ray Odierno and the Army's senior enlisted Soldier, Sgt. Maj. of the Army Raymond F. Chandler III on stage at the third Army Family Forum to field questions from Soldiers and families around the world. The town hall, moderated by retired U.S. Air Force Maj. Gen. Elizabeth Ann Harrell, began and ended with a prom-ise to Army families. "Total Army Strong has to be more than just a bumper sticker," McHugh said in his opening comments. "I think if you look back over the past seven years or so, and see the very robust growth of our family programs and services, you'll see we've worked hard to live up to the support of the Army family. "I believe taking care of families is mis-sion essential." Odierno expanded on that theme when he admitted that the Army asks a lot of our Soldiers and their families, and we owe it to them to provide the support they need.
"Factor in the fact that we have Sol-diers in Afghanistan, in Iraq, and now in Africa to fight a virus, we ask our Soldiers to do a lot of different things, so we ask a lot of their families."
When asked by a member of the audi-ence how leadership expected to be able to continue to provide support to families in an era of budget constraints, Odierno explained that it is possible by tailoring support so that the right pro-grams are in place in the right places.
"It's now the time for us to ensure we find out which programs are the best," he said. "We want to focus to make sure we resource the programs that are absolutely the ones that we need to continue to resource, so it's im-portant to have a discussion and hear from you and hear your concerns. "What we have to do is figure out what are the most important things we need to resource moving forward to ensure our families don't just survive, they thrive." When the programs are identified and resourced, the next step, Chandler said, is to reassess how those pro-grams, and awareness of the programs, are delivered to the total Army family. "We have to reassess the emerging demographic and look at how we can tailor our programs to support them in the way they need to be supported," Chandler explained. "Many of our pro-grams are designed for people to be present, actively getting information. As a society, we're well beyond that today. We may have to address them in ways that may not be comfortable for those of us 'more seasoned.'" Whether it's a phone app or social me-dia-based crowd sourcing or online virtual classrooms, Odierno believes that the use of emerging technology not only will resonate better with Sol-diers and their families, and therefore encourage more participation. The use of technology will help us deliver pro-grams and support at a much cheaper cost. The final piece to ensuring the Army properly supports Soldiers and their families is the ability to scale and adapt programs and services around the world. "We're going to have consistent stand-ards," McHugh said, "but we expect our commanders to assess the needs
of their posts, installations and camps so they can scale, or tailor, their pro-grams to meet their needs." Odierno expanded on that concept. "The guidance I gave to Lt. Gen. Halver-son [the Assistant Chief of Staff for Installation Management and Com-manding General of the Installation Management Command] is there's a baseline that should be consistent," Odierno said. "But each installation serves a very different population. The needs are different at Anchorage, Alas-ka, than they are at Fort Lewis. We want to give commanders the capabil-ity to react to the needs of their instal-lation. I trust their judgment to arrange programs in a way that meets their populations." "This is a time for predictability, not politics," McHugh said. "We're committed to two things: en-suring the war fighter is prepared and taking care of their families."

Fun and Nutritious Foods for Kids November is Good Nutrition Month. With Thanksgiving and the Christmas holiday just around the corner, it’s a great time to remember to make good choices about the foods we eat. According to the National 4H Curriculum guide for youth, it is important to eat a variety of healthy foods daily. The following are some quick, easy and fun 4H recipes for children to make in the kitchen, with the assistance of an older family member. Marinated Vegetables `4 cups of fresh vegetables (broccoli flowerets, sliced carrots, red/green peppers, sliced radishes, diced celery, shredded red cabbage, etc.) `½ cup commercial Italian salad dressing
Choose the veggies you want in your salad. Wash and prepare by slicing, shredding, etc. Com-bine veggies in large bowl and toss gently to mix. Pour Italian dressing over the veggies and mix all ingredients together. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator overnight to enjoy the next day! Pasta Sauce `1 ¼ cup heavy cream `1 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro 2` tbsp grated parmesan cheese In a small saucepan, put cream, cilantro and parmesan cheese. Heat on low without boiling. Pour on top of freshly cooked whole wheat noodles, spreading evenly. Dried Banana Chips `Four firm ripe bananas `¼ lemon juice Peel and slice bananas. Dip slices into the lemon juice. Arrange on a greased cookie sheet in a single layer. Bake at 175 degrees for two to three hours until crisp and golden. Cool chips completely before storing in a glass jar, tin or reclose able plastic bag. Zippy Vegetable Dip `1 cup low-fat cottage cheese `1 cup plain yogurt `1 package (1 oz.) ranch style dressing mix `Assorted cut-up vegetables `(optional: add ½ tsp dried dill weed or dried onions) Put cottage cheese and yogurt in a blender and mix on medium speed until mixture is smooth, about 45 seconds. Stir in dressing mix and pulse until well-blended. Serve with raw veggies and enjoy! Fruit Kabobs `Long skewers `Banana `Berries (in season) `Sliced apples (or sliced pears) `Marshmallows `Green seedless grapes `Lemon juice In two small bowls, put a small amount of lemon juice. Peel bananas and slice. Dip banana slices into lemon juice, then dip sliced apples (or sliced pears) into the other bowl of lemon juice.

Individuals who miss the registration deadline may register in person and then vote at one-stop voting sites in the person's county of residence during the one-stop absentee voting period. In order to register during a one-stop period, the applicant must show ac-ceptable proof of name and residence in the county. Is voter ID required in North Carolina?
Beginning in 2016, North Carolina will require voters to show a photo identification (photo ID) when they present to vote in
person. This change is a result of the Voter Information Verification Act or †œ VIVA.†• (S.L. 2013-381).
Until 2016, most voters will not be required to show any form of identification when they vote. If you are not a first time voter,
or at the time of your initial voter registration, you provided your North Carolina driver license number or the last four digits of your social security number and that number was validated, you will not be required to show ID when you vote.
Also, you are not required to show your voter card. However, if you are a first-time voter and you did not provide your North Car-olina driver license or the last four digits of your social security number when you completed your voter registration application, or one or both of those numbers could not be validated, then you will need to provide ID the first time that you vote. If you are required to show ID, you must provide one the following:
A current and valid photo identification or
A copy of one of the following documents that shows your name and address: a current utility bill, bank statement, government
check, paycheck, or other government document.
