ain, snow, sleet, ice … are you sure your vehicle can weather the season? Prep now with some winter car care tips. Think about your car from the bottom up and from the outside in. Starting with your tires, opt for good all-season tires and be sure to monitor tire pressure. It’s normal for tire pressure to fall in cold weather, but routinely driving on underinflated tires only increases the risk of damage. While you’re at it, see if your spare tire has adequate pressure. You never know when you’ll need it or that handy-dandy jack you should keep at the ready. If you’re planning to drive through heavy snow and mountain passes, you’ll need snow chains or cables. Next, make sure your brake lights and head-

ExploreJBLM Fall 2023

lights are working, especially as the days get shorter and darker. Winter weather can also decrease visibility for drivers, so think about your windshield. Not all wiper blades are made for winter — some can freeze and become rigid, so double check yours. Keep an ice scraper/snow brush in your car, and consider window-washing solution with some antifreeze already incorporated in it. Cold temperatures can damage your engine block and cause costly repairs, so check your car’s fluids. Do you have antifreeze? Allseason oil? How are the levels of each? You should also have your battery checked and keep jumper cables in your vehicle. Last, but not least, think of the passengers in your car, including yourself! Nobody wants to get stuck in the snow, but in case you ever do, it’s best to have warm jackets, blankets,

winter hazards snacks, water and safety items such as a flashlight and first-aid kit, including any regular medications you or your loved ones need. A full gas tank never hurts, either. That all sounds like a lot, especially if you’re new to driving in winter weather. No worries! MWR Auto Skills Centers can help you prepare and even have the option of car care classes and instruction if you’d like to learn how to complete basic maintenance yourself. Additionally, some services for spouses of deployed Service Members are offered free of charge. For additional information, visit JBLMmwr.com under Auto or reach out by phone. Auto Skills Centers can be reached on Thursday–Saturday for McChord Field, 253-982-7226, or on Saturdays for Lewis Main, 253-967-3728.

Keep these essentials in your vehicle this winter • De-icing fluid • A quart of oil and transmission fluid • 50–50 mix of antifreeze • Paper towels • Windshield scraper • Jumper cables • Portable air pump • Snow chains or ropes • Personal items, including medicine, snacks and water

Layers of appreciation for veterans and military families By Angie Andrews s the grandchild, relative and sibling of veterans and current spouse of an active-duty Service Member — who has veteran and active-duty siblings too — I join you in celebrating Veterans and Military Family Appreciation Month.

10 ExploreJBLM Fall 2023

But I’m not the only one. Originally called Armistice Day, Veterans Day has been a federal holiday since 1938. Additionally, each November, the president customarily signs a proclamation calling on the nation to show appreciation for and celebrate military families. What started out as National Family Week, a tradition established in the ’90s with the help of Armed Forces YMCA, has now grown to a full month with an open invitation for all to reflect upon, celebrate and support military families.

Airman Kylee Tyus / DVIDS

Reflection … Throughout the month, focus on the word appreciation, and consider the layers of meaning built in: admiration, understanding, gratitude and an increase in value.

With admiration Often harboring patriotic pride and a hint of awe, people around the country recognize the military as inspirational. Service Members and veterans are held in high regard. Standing to support them, their family members are often thought of with an extension of that same respect. Be encouraged by those rallying around you.

With understanding

hardships which impact their day-to-day lives. Even while experiences differ from one military family to the next, you don’t have to know exactly what a situation feels like to offer a level of understanding. Empathy is quite possibly the baseline of support anyone seeks.

With gratitude Thankfulness is an almost instinctive way to wrap up all that inspiration and empathy into one heartfelt emotion. Therein lies the very nature of appreciation’s most impactful meaning: an increase in value. If you’re truly grateful for your military family — and all military families — it’s only logical to invest in them. Continued on next page.

You’ll find Family and MWR’s mission statement to be the best thanks we can give:

“provide customers with the same quality of life given to the society they have pledged to defend by offering services that reduce stress and build skills and self-confidence for Service Members and their families.” JBLM MWR is all about empowering those we appreciate most: all Soldiers, Airmen, Service Members and their families. We look forward to seeing you at the many MWR activities devoted to military families this November and throughout your time at JBLM.

Run to Remember with wear blue On Nov. 11 at 11 a.m., sport your blue attire and head to Wilson Sports & Fitness Center for the second annual wear blue Veterans Day Run. JBLM community members of all ages are invited to choose from four distances: 11-Miler, 11K, 5K or 1.1K. Participants will

receive finisher medals and T-shirts. Sprint on over to JBLMraces.com for more details including registration info, pricing and packet pickup instructions.

Other ways to get involved As individuals, there are countless ways you too can advocate for veterans and military families. Whether it’s sending a care package or letter, inviting a single Service Member to a holiday meal, volunteering for programs and events (see more throughout this issue), or simply lending a listening ear, your caring actions will certainly be appreciated.

Members of the JBLM community run in the wear blue: Veterans Day Run last November. Register at JBLMraces.com for this year’s event, which will be held Nov. 11. Greg Moulton

Presidential Proclamations Quotations sourced from FederalRegister.gov. The most important work, however, is always done in the hearts and homes of individuals. During this week, I encourage all Americans to reflect upon the many blessings of family life and to join in our national effort to promote strong, loving families across our country. — Clinton 1998

During Military Family Month, we recognize every spouse, parent, sibling, child, and loved one who stands with our Service Members, and we reaffirm our solemn vow to serve these families as well as they serve us. The selflessness of our military families tells a story of unfailing duty and devotion. — Obama 2014

During National Family Week and throughout the year, we also extend our appreciation and support to our courageous military families, who have borne the hardships of war with dignity and devotion. — George W. Bush 2006

To be a veteran or a service member is to have endured and survived challenges most Americans will never know. To be the family of one of those proud patriots is to sacrifice more for our country than most Americans will ever give. — Biden 2022

WORK

We’re hiring!

Employment events You’re looking for a job. We’re hiring. Let’s connect! Family and MWR regularly hosts two types of job fairs and FCC Provider Orientations to help you find your best-fit role. Job fairs are categorized as either CYS or all MWR. When you attend the CYS Job Fair, you’ll have a chance to learn about Child and Youth Services jobs, meet current staff, share your résumé and possibly have on-the-spot interviews. All MWR Job Fairs are similar and cover jobs within all the different departments of MWR. You can find roles in Outdoor Recreation, Human Resources, Sports and Fitness Management, Information Technology and more. Both types of job fairs are open to the public; you don’t need base access to attend. FCC Providers work from within their homes to provide child care. To learn more about this opportunity, you can attend an orientation night. Selected candidates will then complete training days. Currently an FCC Provider Orientation is

Share your talents In this season of thankfulness, appreciation and gift-giving, don’t forget the best gifts you can give — your time and talents. Volunteering is a great way to give back and make the JBLM community stronger, and it’s beneficial to you as well. You’ll have the chance to learn new things, meet awesome people, develop your skills and, in some instances, receive service credits. Many larger events such as the upcoming Labyrinth of Horrors and Winterfest or recent JBLM Warrior Expo & Airshow offer the opportunity for one-time volunteering while ongoing programs benefit from regularly scheduled volunteers. You can register to be a youth sports coach, a fitness instructor for group

fitness classes, a library aid, an adventure programs rafting guide, an auto skills assistant, or work on graphic design and writing with MWR Marketing. Ready to partner with us? Visit JBLM. ArmyMWR.com/Partner-With-Us or call the Installation Volunteer Corps at 253-967-2324.

Expanding child care options Now in its second year, the DOD’s Child Care in Your Home Fee Assistance Program offers an additional option of child care for military families living certain locations — including the Seattle/Tacoma area. Eligible families may opt to apply for fee assistance to cover full-time, in-home child care, which means between 30 and 60 hours of weekly care for your children within your own home. While it is the family’s responsibility to choose their inhome child care provider, providers are vetted through background checks and have specific requirements for training. The amount of assistance received is based on several factors and

families should note there could be additional out-of-pocket costs and tax implications to be aware of as well. To learn more about this new program, visit JBLM.ArmyMWR.com/Programs/CYSReg or chat with the knowledgeable staff at Parent Central Services by calling 253-966-2977. Additionally, Military One Source has articles, resources and representatives (including tax consultants) available 24/7.

Flexible spending accounts Lastly, as the calendar year comes to an end, it’s a good time to remember Flexible Spending Accounts can be used toward outof-pocket costs, not just for health care but also dependent care which includes child care. A Dependent Care FSA is an account you can contribute pre-tax dollars to, allowing you to save on taxes for child care costs. Be sure to review your options during your workplace benefits open enrollment each year.

Join Team MWR as a Child & Youth Program Assistant (check WorkAtJBLM.com for current listings), or as a Family Child Care Provider in your on-base home and provide much-needed childcare for military families. Another childcare option for JBLM families is the DoD Child Care in Your Home Fee Assistance Program.

Every holiday seems to have one common thing you can count on. We know what you’re thinking. Just one thing?! What about joy, celebrating, fun and togetherness? Well, yes. But the one thing that always accompanies everything else is the food, and plenty of it too! If you’re planning to host a holiday feast this year, you’ll need some serving dishes. And there’s nothing more beautiful than handcrafted items. Arts and Crafts and the libraries are joining forces for DIY Stoneware events. From 5–6 p.m., on Oct. 25 at Grandstaff Library (Lewis Main) and Nov. 1 at McChord Library (McChord Field), you’ll have the chance to create not one, but two stoneware pieces just in time for Thanksgiving. Each session is open to DoD ID card holders, ages 18 and older, and limited to 50 participants. To register, please call the library where you’d like to attend. You can reach Grandstaff Library at 253-967-5889 and the McChord Library at 253-982-3454. Understandably, hosting isn’t for everyone though. There’s a lot of prep work that goes into holiday meals. Sometimes, based on the time and energy involved, prep work morphs into stress work. Why not relax and let the pros handle it? Thanksgiving meals can be made much easier with the help of MWR chefs. Orders for ready-made or take-andbake meals are the easy-peasy fix for relaxing and delicious holiday feasts. Gobble up the

Pawsitively outrageous costumes

Gather together at Harvest Fest

During the month of October, JBLM offers plenty of chances for everyone — ahem, fur everyone — to dress up, including your pets. Fetch your four-legged friends and pounce on this opportunity to join the MWR libraries for their annual Howl-O-Ween Pet Costume Contest from Oct. 1–31. Entering is a snap! After Fido or Whiskers are dressed in their finest getups, catch them on camera in their most adorable pose. Then, upload your pet’s photo to the JBLM library Facebook page. Along with the cuteness overload, we’re bringing spectacular prizes: pet-friendly gift baskets within dog and cat categories. Pet parents can also stop by the Book Patch Children’s Library to pick up some dog treats

Hillside Youth Center is ready to help you reap all the goodies at Harvest Fest on Saturday, Oct. 14. Everyone is welcome to come by between noon and 4 p.m. for this season’s best crop: family fun! Collect prizes from the carnival games you’re sure to win, strike a pose at the selfie station, spark your creative side with crafts and get festive with temporary tattoos and face painting. And certainly, don’t let your appetite play tricks on you because there will be treats to snack on too. Hillside Youth Center is located at 6397 Garcia Blvd. on Lewis Main. Scoot on over to the MST page at JBLMcys.com for more information and a link to our Facebook page.

A labyrinth of Haunting like a BOSS Creeping onto lists of the most haunted military installations around, JBLM and its rumored apparitions are bringing you a chillingly good time with a Labyrinth of Horrors at the MWR Fest Tent. Volunteers from BOSS showcase their spooky talents as they not only realistically portray ghosts, zombies, clowns and other frights, but also build the haunted house and displays you’ll encounter this October. Thrill seekers can attend the Labyrinth of Horrors from 6–10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, Oct. 27 and 28, while those who’d like a

History of haunts

JBLMBOSSteam Lional Kam

horrors BOSS volunteers trace their Theatrical Nightmare events at JBLM back for decades. Building 3168, formerly Nelson Recreation Center, was built in 1972 and was the location of some of our installation’s first haunted houses. Even prior to the ’90s, the haunted house program was volunteer-based. In the late ’80s, the experience began to include theatrical elements — everything from setting backdrops, costume designs and makeup to lighting and sound effects. As the program continued, the attendees’ participation evolved as well. Each event, and

even specific sections of the haunted house events, had stories behind them. Interactive narratives which were sometimes patterned off of pop culture horror movies eventually included guided tour aspects. From the House of Vampires theme in 1999, the many Walk in the Dark events and even through the few years of the Haunted Crooked Road (which was a pandemic-friendly drivethru experience) to this year’s Labyrinth of Horrors, the JBLM community has been creepin’ it spooky, fun and creative every fall.
