President’s Message ‘Tis the season! What a wonderful time of the year. I absolutely love the holidays. The baking, the decorating, celebrating with friends and family and I even enjoy the hustle and bustle of shopping for the perfect gift for each of my loved ones. There are many things that the holidays symbolize, but no matter your beliefs or how you celebrate, it is definitely the season of giving. There is the obvious giving of material gifts, evidenced by the crowds at the malls and the crazies that line up TWO WEEKS before black Friday sales begin. Most everyone enjoys receiving gifts. Little fingers tear through wrapping paper at warp speed and as adults we feel the same anticipation, yet we are more reserved and delicately open our packages. Yes, getting gifts is exciting, but the most meaningful and lasting gifts cannot be packaged with a bow. Instead, I find that the most rewarding treasure is when we give or receive a measure of true kindness. Someone helping you in a moment of need, receiving a handwritten note, kind words on a bad day…it’s that little, but perfect thing that comes when you need it most. Usually it costs nothing but TIME. The Junior League of Norfolk-Virginia Beach, provides these priceless gifts not just during the holidays, but year round. Yes, we have given through grants and other monetary ways, but we also give with our hearts and our time. This is what I see our League volunteers doing every day. Whether it is you participating with “Little Hands, Big Difference,” volunteering to prepare meals for families at the Ronald McDonald House, tutoring at risk homeless children, getting involved with Edmarc, a children’s hospice, helping to organize events for the residents of Park Place, or simply attending League meetings, you are directly impacting your community with your heart and your time. I am inspired by the selfless gifts you so graciously offer as you share a very special part of yourself with others. If I could give a gift to each of you, it would be my sincere appreciation and admiration for all that you do. Regardless of your tenure or involvement in our League, I hope that you will take great pride in the “gifts” we give our community by touching countless lives and making Hampton Roads a better place to live. What greater gift is there? Wishing you all a very happy holiday season,

Best Wishes,

Melissa Steadman 2012-2013 President Junior League of Norfolk-Virginia Beach, Inc.

Best of the Season This month, we wanted to remind our readers of the reasons why they consider this time of year, the best of the season. In addition to sharing our community updates and cookbook recipes, we asked members to share their best memories from the League year to date. We asked them to draw upon their experiences from community hours, trainings, social gatherings, fundraisers and even GMMs and to share them with us. The response was overwhelming; not only by the sheer number of memories that were shared but by the richness and the heartfelt moments that our League members were able to appreciate and take part in because they are members of the Junior League of NorfolkVirginia Beach. We are excited to share these moments with you.

COMMUNITY Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia Helping those less fortunate seemed to be the mindset of those that volunteered to pack boxes full of food in support of the Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia in November. The overwhelming support of local citizens shows the depth of this especially during the holidays. Our four hour shift started off at 6:00pm and we worked endlessly until 10:00pm. Immediately when we got there we had to unload a small passenger bus that was completely full of food donations. Donations ranged from frozen turkeys and all the fixings, to baby food and paper products. Once the bus was emptied we continued to unload donations as local citizens drove through the drop off line with their donations. Most donations were a few bags of dry and canned goods but there were several vehicles that pulled through that were overflowing with groceries to be donated. Many vehicles that pulled through also made monetary donations to also assist the Foodbank. Tamara Vugrin shared, “At times throughout the evening it was difficult to hold back the tears as I thought of those people who do not have all of the comforts that my family and I share. We are fortunate to not worry about where our next meal is going to come from or where we will spend a cold night. But more importantly, we are very fortunate to be able to support others whether it is donating food, money, clothing or just our time. My bucket was undoubtedly filled that evening and my only hope this holiday season is that we all strive to fill the buckets of those around us that are less fortunate.�

Little Hands, Big Difference Teaching an old dog new tricks can be hard, so we decided to start early. Partnering with the Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia, our second annual Little Hands, Big Difference event helped show our children that community service can make a huge impact on those that are in need. The kids started out playing bean bag toss, making crafts and bowling in Pembroke Mall while waiting for Santa to arrive. Shortly after St. Nick made his grand appearance, the children turned their focus to sorting the “kid-friendly” foods that JLNVB purchased and collected through donations. After they sorted the food, the children loaded the food bins onto carts and walked it over to the 16th Annual Mayflower Marathon, a 57-hour long food and fund drive that helps stock the Foodbank shelves for the winter. President-Elect Laura Bangor said, “The children loved it because they were cheered and high-fived as they brought the food and delivered it. They were so excited and I think that it really made an impact on them, especially when they saw all the food that was being collected. Our goal was for the children to have fun and to share with them the joys of philanthropy and helping others. We do a lot where we reach out to children in need, but we also wanted to reach out to teach our children the importance of helping others.” Over 70,000 people in Hampton Roads are struggling to find food on a daily basis. Of those, 1 in 4 is a child. The Foodbank feeds seniors who have to choose between paying for food or medication, children who may only get one meal a day or none at all, and working families who just can’t make ends meet. Knowing the League made an impact on these lives is why we do what we do and passing the gift of philanthropy on to our children can be our greatest gift to them this holiday season.

Junior Achievement The JLNVB supported Junior Achievement by teaching Business Ethics to high school students to help them develop ethical decision-making skills as they prepare to enter the workforce. League members taught seven different lessons during the four-hour program on Saturday, November 17. It was a very fulfilling day for members as we went through different scenarios with the students ranging from being stranded on an island to serving on the Board of Directors for a multi-national corporation. The students expressed why they would make certain decisions in a variety of situations and what process led them to their choices. League members were able to share personal experiences with ethical dilemmas they have faced in their personal and professional lives. We look forward to continuing to support these children as they develop the skills that will help them move into theworkforce with confidence.

ForKids In November, seven Junior League members volunteered to assist ForKids staff with assembling Thanksgiving gift baskets at the Good Mojo Thrift Store location in Norfolk. After learning about the ForKids mission, their various charity partners and the people they seek to help, members set out to sort incoming food donations and check previously-assembled baskets for completeness. Dozens of additional gift baskets were then put together and an inventory of remaining pantry items was created so ForKids could make an updated request for donations on their website. Members also set up racks of donated children’s coats and jackets for the upcoming Holiday Shop, and helped the Good Mojo staff organize current stock. The staff of ForKids recognized the Junior League of NorfolkVirginia Beach, Inc. for its contributions to their wonderful organization at the October GMM. A note from ForKids: “Hello! I just wanted to thank you and the Junior League for coming out last week and helping us in our Thanksgiving Shop and Good Mojo thrift store. It’s always great to have you here with us and we look forward to having you volunteer in our Holiday Shop!” Rebecca Myers, Volunteer Coordinator A note from Park Place: “Thanks so much for your support. The Junior League has been so helpful this semester, we’re looking forward to continuing to build this relationship!” Annie Blakey, Volunteer Coordinator

GATHERINGS & FRIENDS “I loved meeting several great active members while volunteering to prepare dinner at the Ronald McDonald House. We were able to chat with a few of the residents and they were very appreciative of the meal.” Susan Sobel “I love the first meetings of the year! It’s a chance to see everyone you haven’t seen in awhile, an opportunity to meet the new Provisionals and everyone is excited for the new League year.” Lori Collins “At the September GMM training on social media, we were asked to turn towards our neighbor, snap their shot and post it. I was sitting next to Phelecia and I had to take several shots before she had one she liked. I remember telling her the training would be over by the time she “approved” of her picture. It was a great JLNVB memory.” Stephanie Peebles » “The Provisional Challenge Course was a great experience, the Ropes Course took a long time but we really had to work as a team and it was a great way to get to know the other Provisionals.” Erikka Massie “After swinging over the ‘lava pit’ to escape from the ‘cave,’ our groups of girls sang the fastest version of ‘Row, Row, Row Your Boat’ you’ve ever heard while holding on to each other balanced on a small block of wood during the Provisional Ropes Course at the Triple R Ranch.” Cynthia McCormick » “When the League first announced the Food Tidings for the new moms, I thought what a wonderful way to support our new moms and their families. It has been a fun way for me to meet other League members but to also support other moms. Having had two little ones of my own I know that any gesture of support or kindness regardless of the size means so much. The little things like a delivered meal makes the day significantly less overwhelming, even as we become comfortable in our new “mommy” role. Best wishes to all of the new moms.” Tamara Vugrin “One of the best times of Junior League so far this year has been meeting some Provisionals at the November Cluster meeting. Erikka and Kristal are two Provisionals who are going to help set up the Blood Drive on January 12th. We are going to work together to make it the best Blood Drive the Junior League has seen!” « Anna Wood

On the Scene with the League About 20 members of the 2012-13 Provisional Class and three Board members were able to participate in the low elements Challenge Course at Triple-R-Ranch on Saturday, October 20. The low course elements are characterized by group participation, problem solving, and activities, which build group unity, cooperation, and communication while also challenging balance and physical coordination. The groups were presented with a series of challenges in which members must be decisive and collective in their efforts to accomplish the goal. The course effectively helped the group: • Develop abilities which contribute to decision making and leadership • Develop relationships of honesty and healthy communication • Focus on the importance of being a trustworthy, reliable individual We were thrilled to be able to make this a part of the Provisional year and look forward to continuing with the activity for years to come. Check out some of the favorite memories made during this activity in the “Best of the Season: Gatherings” section of TIDEings.

Kudos to... Our Members of the Month: The common denominator with all of our Members of the Month this time around is stepping up! Thank you to all of the following ladies for getting the job done - sometimes without even being asked:

« Tamara Vugrin, a transfer from the Junior League of Denver, signed up for food tidings and brought food to every one of our new mommas who she didn’t even know! Tamara also has over 20 community hours to date!

» Susie Wentworth, Assistant Community VP, secured Pembroke Mall for Little Hands, Big Difference, the Blood Drive and Kids in the Kitchen - all free of charge!

« Lisa Raines, the Contracts Chair (and she’s dou-

ble placed as an Advisor), has obtained contracts for all of the events mentioned above and many more - all with an incredibly fast turnaround time!

» Anna Wood stepped up to the Kids in the

Kitchen Chair-Elect position when it recently became available and has coordinated several volunteer opportunities such as Kid’s Cafe and the Blood Drive.

« Cynthia McCormick, a Provisional, has been

helping plan membership/recruitment happy hours, post events to FaceBook and has coordinated activities for two affinity groups.

» Hope Keys, the Donor Relations Chair,

coordinated and executed a very successful Thank a Thon! The number one reason people do not donate again to an organization is because they were not thanked. Hope’s diligent work ensures that won’t be happening with the JLNVB. Call yourself, Hope, to say thank you!

Our Provisional Members of the Month: Amanda Lloyd and Michelle Putnam were chosen as the December Provisionals of the Month because they headed up the Provisional Tailgate on November 10, 2012. Amanda and Michelle planned the brunch menu and coordinated the signups for the event and were there bright and early Saturday morning assisting with setup of the spot. They stuck with the “Black Out” theme for the game and the tailgate site reflected that with the décor. They even planned plenty of activities for the kiddos that included chalk, coloring, bubbles and corn hole! Needless to say, everyone had a great time. Both Amanda and Michelle are placed on the Donor Relations Committee for the 2012-13 League year. Amanda hails from Suffolk, but currently resides in Norfolk with her husband Matt. She earned a BA from Longwood University in 2004 and MA from Old Dominion University in 2007. Her full time position is with the City of Norfolk and she is also an online adjunct instructor at Tidewater Community College and Strayer University. When Amanda isn’t busy, she enjoys traveling, learning, and teaching others about various cultures. In addition to the Junior League, during this holiday season she volunteers her time as the Bleacher Coordinator for the Grand Illumination Parade in downtown Norfolk. As Amanda says, ”If I’m not busy, I’m not happy”. Michelle is currently living in Virginia Beach with her husband, Tim, and two daughters. She works in Newport News as a nail technician.
