AER – There when you need it most If you’re lucky, you will never need the services of Army Emergency Relief and the money you pledge this month will never come back to you personally. Thousands of Soldiers feel the same way. Until …. Several years ago, there was an accident in a Camp Humphreys hangar where a young soldier suffered a disfiguring injury. Young, alone, scared and from an improvised Family, she needed someone by her side. AER to the rescue -- flying her mother from Philadelphia, putting Mom up at the Dragon Hill and having her at her daughter’s side for the surgery. Camp Humphreys Soldiers received thousands of dollars in the form of grants or no-interest loans from AER last year for emergency leaves or other financial crises. You probably know some of them. So when you’re asked if you want to make an AER pledge, say ‘Yes.’ Who knows? You could be the next one who needs a hand, and AER will be there.

Open Recreation starts May 5 for CYSS youngsters Open Recreation for children in the first through fifth grades will be held in the School Age Center (SAC) building from 1100-1500 on the first and third Saturday of each month starting May 5. All children in that age group are welcome, but they must be registered with CYSS in order to participate.

Contact SAC Director Tiffany Harris at 753-8507 (031-690-85-7) for more information.
