March 16-21, 2016 Still a U.S. territory, but closer to Cuba than Miami, Key West, Florida is a dynamic collage of culture, food, nature and people. Without a doubt, one of the most “laid back” cities on the planet,
Key West is known for its easy-going lifestyle, great weather and nearly 24/7 party atmosphere. Travel with us in March to experience four days and five nights of this quirky, unique and
sometime eccentric piece of real estate. The $450 per person cost based on double occupancy covers transportation, five nights
lodging and some meals. This is a super St. Patrick’s Day party destination. Space is limited and advanced reservations are
required because this trip always fills up fast.

Coming or going?Know before you go
The Airman and Family Readiness Center provides pre-deployment and reintegrationbriefings every Tuesday and Thursday. The pre-deployment briefing assists military families in advance with planning and preparation fordeployments and extended separations. Members receive information, referral services, materials and resources available to them in the absence of
the military member. The reintegration briefing is designed to educate families on reintegration and reunion concerns, while also providing resources available to help ensure a smooth family reunion. Spouses are highly encouraged to attend both of these briefings to become knowledgeable of all resources available to them during extended separation and reintegration periods.
