Happy Veteran's Day

Good morning, Ashby!!

Today is Veteran's Day here in America. It's a day where we take the time to honor those veterans of our armed forces that fight to protect America's freedoms every day.

This past Sunday, JMU and Rockingham county dedicated a new memorial to our very own veterans from here in Harrisonburg. The new memorial is near Memorial Hall at the new softball stadium. Consider taking the time to walk down Cantrell Ave and check out the memorial.

Thanks to all of our veterans- we're thankful for the fight you continue to make every day for our freedoms!

Until next time...

Turkey Time Tuesday

Good morning, Ashby!!!

As Thanksgiving break quickly approaches, I want to spend some time preparing us for the first official closing of the building for the year.

Here are a few helpful hints to make sure you have a successful check-out for Thanksgiving break:

1. Make sure you sign-up for an appointment with your RA to check out. Signs will be posted outside their room next week.

2. Make sure you keep your check-out time and leave the building immediately after checking out with your RA.

3. Read all of the guidelines that will be given to you by your RA at your floor meeting this coming week. It will tell you which things need to be unplugged, what needs to be taken home with you, etc.

4. Be thankful!!! Don't forget to take some time this year to remember all that you're thankful for in your life- family, friends, JMU, Ashby Hall, health, laughter, etc.

5. Get some sleep! As always I encourage you all to keep getting sleep. I know you're working hard, but your sleep is important, too! You need it to stay healthy!

Let me know if you have any questions about Thanksgiving check-out.

Until next time...

Katie, Ashby Hall Director
