By now, you’ve probably heard about — or seen — theactivity around Building 267 at Naval Base Ventura County(NBVC) Port Hueneme. I wanted to let you know a little bitabout what is going on there and ask for your help.NBVC, at the request of the Department of Health and

Human Services (HHS) and by direction of the Departmentof Defense (DoD), is coordinating the use of Building 267to temporarily house unaccompanied alien children whowere stopped by U.S. Border Patrol and are now beingcared for by HHS’Administration for Children and Fami-lies (ACF).The children will be under the supervision and care of

ACF. Within HHS, ACF is responsible for providing careand shelter to children referred by immigration authorities.Building 267, the former Navy Mobilization Process-

ing Site, can safely house approximately 575 individuals,although the number is expected to fluctuate. We expect tosupport this mission for up to 120 days. HHS will cover allof the costs associated with this mission.We have re-routed traffic to the RV park to avoid this

area; this detour is expected to remain in place for theduration of HHS’use of the facility.

This is a unique support mission, and we expect quitea lot of activity in and around the area over the next fewmonths. I’m asking everyone to avoid the area to minimizetraffic and maximize privacy for the children entrusted toACF during their stay on our installation.Do you have questions, comments, or suggestions?

I want to hear them! Reach me here by emailing [email protected], on Facebook at www.facebook.com/NavalBaseVenturaCounty or on Twitter at www.twitter.com/NBVCCalifornia. You can also go online to our homep-age at http://cnic.navy.mil/ventura/index.htm and use theCommanding Officer’s Suggestion Box. I look forward tohearing from you.

Friday, May 30, dawned with multipletraffic flow changes for residents andvisitors to Naval Base Ventura County(NBVC).Friday morning, access to the RV park

at NBVC Port Hueneme via Salsa Streetwas interrupted due to maintenance op-erations at a nearby facility. Visitors to thepark were diverted to an alternate accesspoint on Pacific Road near the Bee HiveGym.Morale,Welfare &Recreation and Pub-

lic Works staff ensured that clear signagedirected RV drivers to the new entrance,and guards were directed to make sureanyone entering with an RV was notifiedof the change, said Jim O’Rourke, MWRsite manager.The same day at NBVC Point Mugu,

24-hour access changed from Las PosasGate to North Mugu Road gate, whereconstruction was recently completed. LasPosas Gate now operates from 6 a.m. to6 p.m.Monday through Friday except forfederal holidays.The North Mugu Road gate had been

the 24-hour gate prior to its closure inFebruary 2013 due to a structural integ-rity issue with its canopy. The gate re-opened in April after a vehicle crashedthrough the Main Road Gate, renderingit inoperable.

MEMORIAL DAY

By Andrea HowryLighthouse

The Navy Lodge Program, which over-sees operations of 40 Navy Lodgesworldwide, has awarded the Navy Lodgeat Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC)Port Hueneme with a Hospitality Awardand named its general manager, CarlaVicens, the General Manager of theYear.The Hospitality Award is given to

Navy Lodges that guests rate the highestin several areas of service, including stafffriendliness and room cleanliness. With47 rooms, the Port Hueneme facility wonin the medium-size category. This wasthe first time it has won the award.“We had a great year,” said Vicens, who

oversees a staff of 15. “I’m eager for usto continue to do what we do — and doit well. I’m very excited for our group.Everyone here is very proud and hon-

ored.”Vicens has been the general manager

for nearly three years. She said she hasput a fresh emphasis on the value of pro-viding premier guest service.“Our clients will come back for the

guest experience,” she explained. “They’renot coming back for just basic amenities,and they aren’t going to come back ifthey’re treated poorly.”Vicens recently launched the Manag-

er’s Reception. Refreshments are servedfrom 5 to 6 p.m. Wednesdays so guestscan meet each other and Vicens herself— “a great way to get feedback,” shesaid.She also oversaw a beautification of

the Navy Lodge grounds that includedremoving the messy red mulch that keptblowing away and replacing it with smallred rocks and using succulents in placeof water-guzzling plants.

The last day of school is near. Summerplans are under way. Vacations, beach tripsand barbecues with friends make for won-derful ways to spend summer vacation.However, fun and sun don’t need to

mean that learning ceases.According to Johns Hopkins Univer-

sity, students suffer learning loss duringthe summer months, also known as “thesummer slide.”A typical student will loseabout one month of learning, with disad-vantaged or struggling students losingeven more.To ensure your student is prepared to

return to school, a summer reading pro-gram can act as a bridge between schoolyears. High school students in honors andAdvanced Placement (AP) classesmay nothave an option. Summer reading is typi-cally assigned, with an assignment due thefirst day of class. However, all other stu-dents will also benefit greatly by takingadvantage of the summer months, freefrom full-time school, and logging somereading hours.In addition to programs possibly offered

by your child’s schools, local libraries of-

fer summer reading programs. Encourag-ing children to log reading hours or thenumber of pages or books read, theseprograms keep children interested in learn-ing. Summer reading programparticipantscheck in regularly and earn incentives fortheir reading accomplishments. Offeringthese programs in a library gives childrenaccess to awide selection of reading choic-es.An enthusiastic approach to readingwill

encourage a life-long love of reading. Tothat end, public libraries will often have

story hours, literacy activities, arts andcrafts and special events. Participating inthese offerings will allow children to seereading not as a school assignment, butan opportunity to experience and learnabout wonderful new adventures.As important as reading can be for stu-

dents during the summer, there are otheractivities that can be added to a summerday to encourage learning. Here are justa few:• Cook with your children. Cooking

integrates math, reading and followingdirections.• Plant a garden. A garden is science in

action.• Take a “field trip” to the museum or

zoo, or go on a hike. Have your childrenkeep a journal or take pictures on theiradventures.• Learn a newword each day. Have your

children come up with as many ways thatthey can use that word.• Teach children card games. A simple

Internet search will teach you some newones.• After taking pictures on your adven-

tures, have your child put a scrapbooktogether with captions for each picture.Youmay notice advertisements for web-

sites to help lessen the effects of the sum-mer slide. While there is nothing wrongwith using those websites — or manyother free ones — finding non-tech waysto discourage the summer slide can alsobe fun and different, and can encouragefamily interactions.In the next edition, I will list a variety

of websites that can be used to discouragethe summer slide while at home or whiletraveling. For now, try thinking of funlearning opportunities that don’t requireturning on a computer, phone or televi-sion.

Worship scheduleSome of my greatest memories in life

are from my summer camp days — mytime as a camper and counselor for nu-merous summers. Like other fortunategrown-ups who are also camp alumni,we would love nothing more than to passthis unique experience to the next gen-eration of kids we love and care for.For those who have never attended

summer camp, it is hard to explain whyeating S’mores — a combination ofchocolate and marshmallows squishedbetween two graham crackers over acampfire — is one of the greatest culi-nary treats ever invented by man.Or perhaps the best experience of all

is simply for one to get away from home-work and be with his or her best matesfor a couple of weeks at a rustic cabinin the woods. Instead of mastering longdivision or the multiplication tables, theycan focus on other important skills, likehow to build a campfire, shoot a bowand arrow, or catch and clean a fish fortheir cabin’s fish fry.Looking back, maybe the most valu-

able lesson I learned at camp is how tolive with other people, in close quarters,

who are different than I am. I recall wehad campers from the inner cities as wellas those from the suburbs. Although webegan each new session warily checkingeach other out, by the end of camp wehad become good buddies by staying uplate at night, laughing at silly jokes, play-ing sports against other campers andlistening to classic campfire tales.This summer I want to offer an invita-

tion to families who have kids to join usfor this year’s Vacation Bible School.This is a wonderful day camp opportu-nity, along with the normal fun and

games, where they will also learn some-thing about the timeless values of faithand family.While this week is not an overnight

event, it will still be a tremendous timefor your youngsters to make new friendsand laugh and play for awhile beforeschool begins again in the fall.This weeklong event is open to chil-

dren between the ages of 5 and 12; eachday will be from 9 a.m. to noon July14-18. The location is the Seabee Chapel,Naval Base Ventura County, Port Hue-neme.This year’s theme plays off the Old

West and promises a “Rip-Roarin’GoodTime.”Registration is open now and contin-

ues through July 11. Call the SeabeeChapel at 805-982-4358 to sign up or toget more information.We also need volunteers to help during

the week. Anyone older than 13 mayvolunteer, and there will be a nurseryavailable to parents who want to help.Call the chapel for more information.Hope to see some of you there. Have

a great summer. God bless you!

Families that are going throughstressful situations may be eligiblefor up to 16 hours of respite care amonth under a new Navy programthat started this month at NavalBase Ventura County (NBVC).Called “Give Parents a Break,”

the program requires a referral froma commanding officer, executive of-ficer, command master chief, chap-lain, physician, Fleet & Family Sup-port Center manager or aninstallation Child and Youth Pro-grams (CYP) director.“Military families are subject to

unique stressors associated withmilitary life, including deployments,remote tours of duty and extendedworking hours,” Navy officials saidin unveiling the program. “The‘Give Parents a Break’ program isdesigned to give family members ashort break from parenting in order

to help them deal with these typesof stressful situations.”Jacob Munyon, the CYP installa-

tion program director at NBVC,said respite care is being made avail-able from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. duringthe first eight working days of eachmonth for children 6 weeks to 12years old.Location of the respite care ro-

tates between NBVC Port Huenemeand NBVC Point Mugu.Upcoming respite care dates are

June 30 and July 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9 and10 at NBVC Point Mugu.In August, respite care moves to

NBVC Port Hueneme and will beavailable the first eight businessdays of the month.The minimum amount of respite

care that can be made available istwo hours a month.Anyone who is eligible for CYP

services is also eligible for a refer-ral for this program, Munyonsaid.Referrals can be made up to three

months in advance.“A couple of hours just one day

a month can make a huge differ-ence to a family,” Munyon said. “Aparent can go to the grocery storeor just be at home enjoying thequiet. I think this is a great op-portunity to help families that needthe care and are truly in stress.”NBVC already offers the Parents

Night Out program, where parentscan drop off their children for acouple of hours one night amonth.“That’s a great opportunity for

parents to go and enjoy the night,”Munyon said. “But families thatare having daily stress can now takemore than one night a month.”

Naval Mobile ConstructionBattalion (NMCB) 3’s SafetyDepartment teamed up withNMCB 4 and Naval Base Ven-tura County (NBVC) to con-duct critical safety training for700 Sailors assigned to thecombined commands. As prep-aration for the start of 101 daysof summer — the most activeand often costliest to safetyeach year — participants in theMay 16 event rotated throughseven stations, each focused ona topic proven to pose the mostrisk to service members duringthe warm summer months.“The stand down is dedicated

to ensuring our service mem-bers stay safe while out withtheir families and friends tak-ing full advantage of the sum-mertime,” said Chief Construc-tion Electrician Chance Agnew,NMCB 3’s safety lead.During the stand down, ser-

vice members listened to med-ical, recreational and outdoorexperts teach lessons on thevalue of heat preparedness, re-sponsible drinking, food care,hydration and other topics.

Above all, avoiding personalinjury was stressed.NMCB 3’s battalion physi-

cian, Lt. Karen Ganacias, pro-vided all in attendance with athorough understanding of

symptoms and ways to avoidinjuries while playing sports orenjoying the outdoors.Ganacias specifically identi-

fied symptoms of concussions,warning signs of heat distressand how to properly care forsprains and muscle pulls.“Our battalion is pretty well

versed on how to spot and gethelp for most of the things [Ga-nacias] discussed because we doa great job at keeping this in-formation constantly in play,”said Engineering Aid 1st ClassWillie Blanding of NMCB 3.“No matter how many times wediscuss it, it never fails to pro-vide value.”With nearly all motorcycle

accidents resulting in death orlife-affecting injury, vehiclesafety was the second topicshown special attention.Seabees from NMCB 3 dis-

played two dirt bikes, a streetbike and thousands of dollarsof personal protective gear to

stress the value of preparednessand smart decision-makingwhile on the road.“I have a huge scar that’s

never going away from a slippedchain on my dirt bike,” saidNMCB 3 Construction Me-chanic 1st Class Jeremy Harris.“That scar serves as a perma-nent reminder that I could havebeen killed from not doing ba-sic maintenance and checksbefore going out and havingfun.”The team’s brief on vehicle

safety included basic checks,routine maintenance, what todo if there’s an accident andhow to best avoid costly mis-takes commonly made whileoperating a bike or driving acar.“During the entire event, we

saw great interaction betweenthe presenters and the partici-pants and could tell the infor-mation was getting through,”Agnew said.

“Redemption!”Having finished the Admiral’s Cup

sprint triathlon in second place for three years in a row, Jim Avrea was ecstatic when he won the 2014 event Saturday, May 31, at Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC) Point Mugu.

“I’m so happy to be out here,” the 54-year-old Venturan said. “It’s so kind of the base to put on this event.”

The Admiral’s Cup was canceled last year due to funding issues caused by se-questration. This year, the event was lim-ited only to those with base access, and as a result, participation plummeted from more than 100 in 2012 to 36 this year.

But like Avrea, those who took part were appreciative and happy.

“This is a nice event, really well-orga-nized,” said Jim Sayre, a retired Army lieutenant colonel from Agoura Hills who did a relay with his son, William.

“I’m thrilled it’s back,” said Katie Gage, an engineer at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division, the first-place finisher among the women.

Gage competed in her first Admiral’s Cup in 2010 and was eager to try again. But she was traveling on business during

the 2011 and 2012 events.“I really like this race because it’s small

and you don’t usually get clobbered,” she said.

That was especially true this year; she raced against only six other women.

In fact, the number of rescue personnel stationed in the ocean nearly equaled the

entire Admiral’s Cup field. There were nearly two dozen lifeguards and other people in the water, including Ventura County and City of Oxnard personnel on rescue vehicles.

No problems were reported during the race.

The quarter-mile swim took place in 57-degree water. There was no fog, and morning temperatures warmed up during the 12.4-mile bike ride and 3.1-mile run. By the time all contestants had finished around 10:30 a.m., temperatures were well into the 70s.

“It’s a perfect day,” said David Guerra of Camarillo. “It’s beautiful weather.”

Avrea was the only one to finish in less than an hour. His final time was 55 min-utes, 43 seconds. The second-place fin-isher, Adam Rossi, had a time of 1:02:10.

Gage’s time was 1:09:43. She came in ninth overall.

Admiral’s Cup returns

Katie Gage checks her time after being the first woman to finish the Admiral’s Cup sprint triathlon. The engineer at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division, competed in the 2010 event and was “thrilled” that it was back after a one-year absence due to funding issues caused by sequestration.

Team Van Zuyle celebrates its first-place finish in the relay category of the Admiral’s Cup sprint triathlon. Henry, 12, cycled, and Emma, 14, swam. Finishing up with the run was their father, Paul, an information technology specialist with the Naval Facilities Engineering and Expeditionary Warfare Center and a multiple first-place finisher in the lunchtime 5Ks on base.

The U.S. Navy men’s triathlon team re-peated its 2013 first-place finish in this year’s Armed Forces Triathlon Championship Sat-urday, May 31, at Naval Base Ventura Coun-ty (NBVC) Point Mugu.

The Navy women’s team, which won the gold medal last year, had to settle for third-place this year, falling victim to a strong re-turning Air Force team, which placed first, and a new but powerful Marine Corps team that took home the silver.

The triathlon championship pits the top triathletes in the Navy, Army, Air Force and Marine Corps against one another in a 1,500-meter (one-mile) ocean swim, 40-kilometer (24.8-mile) draft-legal bike ride and 10-kilo-meter (6.2-mile) run.

Among the men’s teams, the Air Force took silver and the Army placed third.

Army Capt. Nicholas Vandam of Fort Carson, Colorado, repeated his 2012 first-place finish with a time of 1 hour, 51 minutes, 37 seconds. He missed last year’s race because he was in Afghanistan.

Air Force 2nd Lt. Samantha Morrison of Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in North Carolina repeated her 2013 victory with a time of 2:06:25.

While the triathletes noted that the course seemed fast this year, Vandam’s winning time was actually 6 minutes off his 2012 time.

“I didn’t get to swim or train much in Af-ghanistan,” he explained, adding that waves during the ocean swim and windy conditions during the bike race also played a role.

“At times it felt like I wasn’t even moving because of the waves,” he said.

Morrison found this triathlon to be less stressful than last year’s; she had graduated from the U.S. Air Force Academy just three days prior to the 2013 triathlon.

“Compared to last year, I could just come out and relax a little,” she said. “The swim, though, was especially tough. All these girls are fast.”

She agreed with Vandam that a strong headwind made the bike race tough.

“And the run was very hot,” she said.Often cloaked in fog this time of year, Point

Mugu was clear and close to 80 degrees dur-ing the race.

Navy Lt. Kyle Hooker, who finished about 1 minute after Vandam and came in second, agreed that heat was a factor.

“I’m from Whidbey Island in Washington, so I’m not so good in warm weather,” he said.

But he noted that this is his fifth year com-peting in the triathlon championship, and

this was his best time so far, at 1:52:40.The third-place finisher was Air Force Ca-

det John Bierman of the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs. His time was 1:56:07.

The second-place finisher among the wom-en was Navy Lt. Rachel Beckman of Arling-ton, Virginia, whose time was 2:07:49, and the third-place finisher, at 2:11:31, was 1st Lt. Mollie Hebda of the Marine Corps, who had been promoted from second lieutenant the day before.

“We’re a new team — three of us had

never done this before,” said Hebda, who completed her first triathlon just over a year ago. “This race went exactly as we wanted it to.”

This is the 15th year NBVC Point Mugu has hosted the triathlon championship.

“Naval Base Ventura County is excited and proud to host the Armed Forces Triathlon Championship again this year,” said Capt. Scott Loeschke, chief staff officer of the base. “Congratulations to all the competitors.”

Lt. Cmdr. Matt Cameron, the flight sur-geon at NBVC Point Mugu, said the medical tent saw only minor cases.

“There were no major crashes,” he said. “There were some cases of exhaustion, cramps, overheating and dehydration. But there was nothing serious.”

The race drew several spectators, including competitors in the Admiral’s Cup sprint tri-athlon that took place earlier in the morning, plus some guests at the Beach Motel and RV Park.

Vandam’s mother, Liz, traveled from Min-neapolis to watch her son compete. For her, it was a homecoming of sorts; she lived on the base when she was in third grade.

The family of Coast Guardsman Mike Kelly, who’s stationed in Oregon, turned the triathlon into a family reunion. Kelly, who competed on the Navy team, was able to see his sister, Jenny Martin, who lives in San Di-

ego, and his mom and dad, Penny Martin and Tony Rivas, who live in Bakersfield.

Other spectators didn’t know until that morning that a triathlon would be taking place.

“Now that we know, we’re going to try and come back next year,” said Vicky Utt, who was staying in the RV Park with her husband, Vietnam veteran Dennis Utt. The couple lives in Bakersfield.

During the ocean swim, another perfor-mance competed for spectators’ attention. A large harbor seal had caught a fish and was feeding just a few feet away from the swim-mers. Seagulls flocked to the commotion, which was witnessed at close range by a pro-fessional surfer who had volunteered to serve as a spotter.

by 5 feet by 7 feet. The boxes werelashed together to form causeways andferries that carried tanks, other vehicles,personnel and supplies from the Land-ing Ship, Tank (LST) to Normandy.A pontoon and other D-Day artifacts

are on display in one gallery, as are themassive bow doors of an LST, wherevisitors can stand and look out onto amural of Omaha Beach.“Out of 10,000 photos of Seabees at

Normandy that the museum has in itscollection, none was taken from thedirection of ship to shore,” Godbillesaid. “This mural — this is the viewSeabees would have seen.”The newly opened area of the mu-

seum is behind the theater, where aWorld War II-era recruiting film hasreplaced an Oliver North-narrateddocumentary. The new film is about theBureau of Yards and Docks and is nar-rated by Adm. Ben Moreell, known asthe father of the Seabees.The first gallery visitors enter is

“From Civilian to Seabee: Seabee Train-

ing During World War II,” where theysee how the Navy set up training campson the East and West coasts to traintens of thousands of men to create con-struction battalions.The largest of those camps was at

Port Hueneme, which would ship outalmost 4 million long tons of suppliesduring World War II.In contrast, Davisville, Rhode Island,

considered the birthplace of the Sea-bees, shipped out 1.5 million longtons.Exhibits in this gallery include a

barber’s chair that is nearly identicalto one shown in a photo behind it — aphoto taken at Port Hueneme duringthe war — and a display of the variousbees that came to represent the con-struction battalions, or “CBs.”“The museum has so many bees that

this exhibit will rotate every six months,”Godbille said.There’s also a breakdown of a seabag

— what each Seabee took with him ondeployment, foot powder included.A small display is an ode to the home-

front. It includes a cutaway of a Quon-

set hut, which was installed by volun-teering Seabees.Also on display is the bell that was

used at Camp Parks, a San FranciscoBay-area recuperation center for Sea-bees returning home from the war, andsmall arms that Seabees were trainedto shoot.This gallery leads seamlessly into

“Seabees in the Atlantic Theater inWorld War II.” Past the pontoon dis-play is a preserved 37 mm German an-titank gun and Nazi artifacts capturedby various members of the Naval Con-struction Force.

One display features artifacts fromMorocco, the first time they have everbeen shown to the public.“How do you display a fez in context

in an American military museum?”Godbille asked. “We found a way.”A favorite from the old museum has

found a niche: a deep sea diving rig usedduring World War II. The suit weighs200 pounds — the helmet alone weighs54.“Although the Atlantic Theater might

not receive as much attention as theexploits of the Seabees in the Pacific,”Godbille states, “the invasions of NorthAfrica, the Mediterranean and Francewould have been impossible had Sea-bees and CEC officers not perfected theuse of pontoon causeways and con-struction of an artificial harbor vitalto keeping the fighting men ashore sup-plied with ammunition, medical sup-plies, food, vehicles and tools ofwar.”The exhibit ends with a mural of

Pearl Harbor. It blocks the entrance toanother gallery about the Pacific The-ater, scheduled to open late next year.
