I have not posted here in a really long time so I guess I should do a little quick re-intro.
DH is Army, at Ft. Bragg. We have a 6 month old son who was born while he was deployed to Iraq, he is home now though. I am currently finishing my bachelor degree in Criminal Justice/Homeland security. I have been a key caller for a little over a year now and really enjoy it.
I was recently asked if I would like to take over as FRG leader but I'm still not sure on what all it involves. Also, I wonder if it would be too much with being a full time student and taking care of our son. Any advice would be wonderful, thank you!
Re: Any FRG Leaders here?
^^^Yup, this. The job is much easier when the troop is home. It's a little more involved when they are overseas or in training.
Our FRG is pretty laid back. Once a month I have to go to a meeting with all the other company FRG leaders and the battalion commander. As well as organize and plan a meeting for all the spouses in our particular company.
On the paperwork side, there's the rosters, and the emails. I would say I spend about 6-7 hours a month on being the FRG leader. Oh, and our Soldiers are home.
