Camp Elmore EFMP Newsletter My Hero: Military Kids Write About May 2019 Camp Elmore EFMP Newsletter Vol. 10 No. 5 Naval Medical Center Portsmouth · Bldg 3, Floor 4, Rm 4.2-131 · 620 John Paul Jones Circle · Portsmouth, VA · FAX (757) 953-2420 My Hero: Military Kids Write About Their Moms and Dads By Allen Appel Working through the Armed Services YMCA, Alan Appel and Mike Rothmiller have collected more than 100 essays from children whose parents are serving or have served in the military. The children’s heartfelt, moving, sometimes funny, and completely honest observations about their moms and dads truly capture the emotional connection between parent and child. It is a connection that cannot be severed even when a parent is thousands of miles away, gone for long stretches of time, and in danger. Inspiring, heartbreaking, and genuine, this book provides a fascinating look inside the hearts and minds of kids who love and honor their moms and dads as heroes - at home or on the battlefield.

Semper Fi, Karina Phillips EFMP Manager/MCCS Hampton Roads Deputy Director 757-445-6876 or 757-358-0885 Page 1 Did you know, the third week of May is Food Allergy Awareness Week? There are about 15 million people in the U.S. with food allergies. Eight major food allergens—milk, egg, peanut, tree nuts, wheat, soy, fish, and crustacean shellfish— are responsible for most of the serious food allergy reactions in the United States. In addition, each year, the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America declares May to be National Asthma and Allergy Awareness Month since it's a peak season for asthma and allergy sufferers. Did you know a diagnosis of allergies meets EFMP enrollment criteria? Call the EFMP team in Hampton Roads for more information! Welcome to Virginia… Have you met our dear friend “Pollen” yet? If you are new to Virginia then you may be experiencing a new side effect….SEASONAL ALLERGIES! We may not have had a winter snow storm this year but we will always definitely have a spring pollen storm, where EVERYTHING is covered in a blanket of yellow….and it is not pretty! Spring allergies affect everyone from young to old and in various forms. Some of the most common types of allergy symptoms are: Itchy Eyes Sneezing Itchy Throat Eye Irritation Runny Nose Nasal Congestion (Which tends to build up as symptoms persist) The period from late February to summer tends to be the worst for many allergy sufferers. Tree pollens such as oak, maple, and river birch are blooming during this time. The dry wind we see in early spring will spread allergens and raise the pollen count. Spring rains often flush everything down to the ocean and drop pollen counts. However, this warm wet weather can cause mold count to rise -- meaning trouble for those with mold allergies. While it's difficult to entirely eliminate the effects of allergens on your body, there are steps you can take to make the symptoms less severe. Over-the-counter medications and antihistamines can treat allergies for a few weeks without a problem, and nasal steroid sprays work well for chronic symptoms. Other solutions include: If you have seasonal allergies and work outside, change out of your daytime clothes once you're home. This will reduce your exposure to any allergens collected during the day. Wash your sheets weekly to reduce allergen buildup. Keep your windows closed. Stay inside from 10am to 4pm if possible. Saline sinus rinses (Neti-pot) help flush out allergens and limit the allergic reaction. If you're allergic to your pets, keep them out of your bedroom. (They carry pollen on their coat) Plan ahead for next month’s allergy. If you know oak tree pollen will be high in March and April, start taking medication in February. Page 2 My activechild.com is a website resource that compiles and lists various upcoming and ongoing events and activities for ALL children in the Hampton Roads/Yorktown area. This includes children with special needs. https://hamptonroads.myactivechild.com/blog/Special-Events-For-Children-With-Special-Needs/ “When you have a special needs child you aren’t always able to plan family activities in the same carefree way that others do. Many local businesses and museums have begun to recognize that there is a need to allocate time for families who may need extra time, or less stress about noise and/or behaviors, to enjoy all that they have to offer.” Also, be sure to check out other sections of the webpage for program listings ACTIVITIES and ATHLETIC PROGRAMS for children with special needs.

Moss, Principal Investigator Date Dovetail Cultural Resource Group This page intentionally left blank ABSTRACT Dovetail Cultural Resource Group (Dovetail) conducted a background review and windshield study associated with the preparation of a multi-phased work plan to update architectural documentation within the City of Norfolk, Virginia; the study was done between December 2019 and January 2020. The project was completed at the request of the City of Norfolk’s (the City) Department of City Planning in partnership with the Virginia Department of Historic Resources (DHR) Cost Share Survey and Planning Program (Cost Share Program). The study comprised a desktop review of past survey records, reports, and associated materials in DHR’s archives and a citywide windshield survey to identify potential areas in need of resurvey or new survey, including opportunities for thematic or resource-specific survey efforts. Particular attention was paid to resources that have reached 50 years of age since the last citywide survey conducted in 1997 by Hanbury Evans Newill Vlattas & Company (HENV), as well as resources in areas targeted for redevelopment as denoted by the Norfolk Department of Economic Development or susceptible to storm surge and sea level rise flooding as outlined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) maps (HENV 1997).

  • City Manager Weekly Update May 10, 2019
    City Manager Weekly Update May 10, 2019 Senior Executive Team gets Agile: The Senior Executive Team gathered at the Jordan-Newby Library at Broad Creek this week to learn the philosophy and tools of the Agile Team Norfolk initiative. The workshop, conducted by ODU faculty members Dr. Carlee and Dr. Daniels, was focused on providing leadership the knowledge to help their employees who have attended Agile during its first year to improve processes in their workplace. Many of the processes identified for improvement have also been identified by employees who attended Agile Training. This pointed out the opportunities to use Agile to make Norfolk even better. City Manager Doug Smith wrapped up the day by observing that Agile Team Norfolk will succeed only if the leadership embraces it and supports it in their departments. The participants left already planning which employees to send to the next Agile training and on which processes to focus improvement first. Resilience Roundtable Discussion: On Thursday, the City Manager along with the City Manager of Hampton, Special Assistant to the Governor, Ann Phillips, representatives from Virginia Beach and from Congresswoman Luria’s office participated in a Resilience Roundtable at U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Norfolk District. The roundtable was held to educate the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works, R.D. “Rick” James, about the region’s efforts to deal with sea level rise and the flooding associated with it. The discussion focused on the region’s efforts to address the issue, the challenges faced by coastal communities and how the USACE can assist Hampton Roads and the Commonwealth.
