NMCB 5 Family Readiness Group

NMCB 5 Family Readiness Group NMCB 5 Family Readiness Group You are probably wondering, what is an FRG? Childcare is provided and we have fun activities planned for older kids as well.

The Family Readiness Group is made up of the family and friends of the Seabees stationed with NMCB 5. We are an all volunteer, non-profit organization who relies on donations and fundraising so that we may provide support to all of the families of NMCB 5. Our goal is to enhance family readiness through planning, coordinating, and conducting social, informational, care-taking and morale building ac

tivities; allowing us to meet mission and military lifestyle challenges as a Navy Family Community. During deployments we hold monthly meetings which include information from the NMCB 5 Command, topics and information from around Naval Base Ventura County, and most importantly, a chance to meet other Families of Five! Some of the Fun Celebrations that we have planned are:
Holiday Parties
Family Socials – Day at the Beach, Potluck in the Park, Cosmic Bowling…
Pre-deployment Fair
Seabee Days
Over-the-Hump Party &
Our FAVORITE, Homecoming!!! In an attempt to keep in touch with NMCB 5 family members who are abroad, whether they are in uniform or out, we have this page. Our page will have information about upcoming events, socials, fundraisers, announcements, pictures and anything else that will support us in achieving our goal. The NMCB 5 FRG is a team committed to bringing out the best of this challenging lifestyle. Lasting friendships, the satisfaction of helping others and a sense of pride are all positive results of belonging to a strong FRG. The NMCB 5 FRG is made up of people just like you, people who are facing the challenges and are experiencing the highs of a Seabee family life. We hope you will choose to join our Family of Five and we can’t wait to meet you at one of our events!

📣 Hey families!! We regret to inform you that due to some unforeseen delays with our donors, we will have to postpone our holiday party until next Wednesday, December 21st. We are saddened that we were not able to fulfill our commitments to you all as planned, but please understand that we moved our meeting because we want to ensure we get together with everyone for a holiday celebration before we embark on deployment.

We also understand that families are using this time to take leave. If you have RSVPed and this rescheduling has caused you to miss out on receiving gifts for your kids, PLEASE MESSAGE US! We will absolutely hold them for you and deliver them to you when you return.

Hey again all!👋🏻✨ we’re posting a great reminder for everyone who wants to join us in our Junior SCWs program. Let’s see our littles get those pins!

✨Friends!✨

We have the wonderful opportunity to host a Junior SCW program for the rest of our homeport and want to gauge your interest.☺️ consider what our spouses do for their pins, but make it kid sized!

Each meeting consists of a few topics that your service member would accompany their littles in completing, and will be awarded their very own SCW pin at the end of their journey!

We’d like to keep the minimum age at 5, so that we can ensure a good learning focus, and they can see what mommy or daddy do for work.😊 this will be a fun, educative way to teach them a bit about Seabee life, as well as slowly prepare them for our upcoming deployment.

💛 please send us a message if you’d like to enroll your little/littles in the program! Our first meeting is scheduled for the end of September!

✨Hey spouses!✨ We’d love to include you in our design selection for this deployment’s RED Friday shirts. Let’s see what those creative minds have in store! Drop your submissions below or in a message to us by Friday, September 9th and we’ll post a poll the following Monday.☺️

Speaking personally as a navy spouse, I had no idea what “community” meant until these last two deployments and the tribe I’ve accumulated over my time being here. And I gotta tell y’all, holy. cow. The support we provide each other as we go through the motions of homeport and deployment, it’s absolutely beautiful.✨

We want to honor you spouses, and your littles, next Friday at the Bard Park with a get together and celebrate you.🎉
