GROTON, Conn. - Barbara Ross, director of the Naval Submarine Base New London (SUBASE) Fleet
and Family Support Center (FFSC), but more widely known as host of the local cable-television show
Military Neighbors, right, speaks with shows new host, April Holtmeyer, left, Dec. 12 at the Groton
Public Library studio where the program is taped. Ross final episode as host airs today, Jan. 15, on
channel 2 of both the Comcast and Thames Valley cable networks. Ross hosted the show through
125 episodes since its debut in 1997. Military Neighbors, is aimed at helping military members,
their families, and their neighbors keep abreast of issues impacting the local military and community.
ed Military Neighbors to
reflect that, Ross said.
April Holtmeyer, who
will be taking the reins
from Ross, is also a military spouse with children.
Holtmeyer will juggle
hosting duties with her
role as the SUBASE FFSC
educational services facilitator. She also serves
as the FFSC liaison and
coordinator with Navy
New London ombudsmen and Fleet Readiness
Group (FRG) leaders.
Holtmeyer feels her
background and her many
roles as well as her experience with social media
make her the right candidate to host the show.
When Barbara was
looking for someone new
to take over the show,
she asked for volunteers
to prepare an audition
for a Military Neighbors
episode, Holtmeyer said.
My idea was to stage
an interview with a FFSC
social media subject matter expert and to discuss
how families can use
Facebook as a healthy
resource.

GROTON, Conn. - Above, a Morale, Welfare, and Recreation Department worker shovels snow from the
pathway of Naval Submarine Base New Londons Dealey Center following a small winter storm, Jan.
9. On SUBASE, building managers are responsible for clearing the sidewalks 50 ft. from the buildings.
Left, an iconic midget submarine, located at Naval Submarine Base New Londons (SUBASE) Dealey Plaza,
is blanketed by snow, Jan. 9. Last year, winter was terrible and we got hit hard, said SUBASE Safety
Specialist, Andrew Mozingo. This year hasnt been too bad so far, and hopefully itll stay that way.
GROTON, Conn. - Snow plows of Naval Submarine Base New Londons (SUBASE) Public Works Department stand ready for roadwork, Jan. 10. The SUBASE Safety Department advises that even with roads cleared by
snow plows, drivers should still take extra caution during the winter months. The biggest thing about driving snow is to slow down, or wait it out if possible, said SUBASE Safety Specialist, Andrew Mozingo.
GROTON, Conn. - Above, the bay doors of the Naval Submarine Base New Londons (SUBASE) Auto Hobby Shop remain closed to allow
Sailors to work on their cars, regardless of outside weather conditions.We provide a facility where you can work on your car out of
the rain and cold, said Machinists Mate 2nd Class Steven Collier, assigned to the Auto Hobby Shop. We provide tools, equipment,
and car lifts for people to use. From screw drivers to tire balancers, we should be able to help. The Auto Hobby Shop charges $3 per
hour for use of a bay with a lift, and $2 per hour for a bay without a car lift. Below, several Sailors assigned to Naval Submarine Base
New London (SUBASE) work on their vehicles at the bases Auto Hobby Shop following a winter storm, Jan. 10. Its a do-it-yourself
kind of deal, said Machinists Mate 2nd Class Steven Collier, assigned to the Auto Hobby Shop. Ive seen people replace their entire
brake systems or even take engines and transmissions out of their cars. But in the winter time, you really have to be careful to watch
out for basic things which affect you on local roads. The Auto Hobby Shop is located at Building 460, near the Racquetball Center and
Gate 5, and is open from 10 a.m.to 8 p.m. Wednesday through Friday, and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday and Sunday.
GROTON, Conn. - Above, alongside some shovels and bags of rock salt, a snow blower awaits purchase,
at the Naval Submarine Base New Londons (SUBASE) Navy Exchange (NEX).When shoveling snow,
the SUBASE Safety Department advises knowing ones physical limitations and perhaps performing
some warm-up exercises. Taking rest breaks, pushing rather than lifting when possible, and avoiding
twisting and bending are also all recommended.When using snow blowers, the Safety Department
cautions to watch out for loose clothing, be aware of projectiles, and never clear the exhaust chute
when the blower is running. Right, winter car products, including ice scrapers, windshield covers,
winter windshield fluid, and antifreeze, line the shelves at the Naval Submarine Base New Londons
(SUBASE) Navy Exchange (NEX). These are some of the items recommended for people to have in their
cars during the winter season. Its also a good idea to have blankets and extra clothes, as well as
food and water, said Andrew Mozingo, Safety Specialist from the SUBASE Safety Department.
Keeping
the
vehicle hydrated is just as
important,
highlights
Edgar Martinez, SUBASE
Safety Manager.
Its important to check
all of your car fluids, said
Martinez. People dont
seem to realize that when
they keep using the windshield fluid to clear the ice,
their tank will be empty.
Some fluids contain more
water than anything else,
which can freeze in the
cold temperatures, so its
important to keep your
vehicles fluid levels higher. Dont wait until you
have a quarter tank of
gasoline to fill up. When
it gets to half, just fill it up
again, especially now that
gas is really cheap.
While drivers can visit
local dealers or service
centers for vehicle inspections and maintenance, the
SUBASE Auto Hobby Shop
is a less expensive alternative for Sailors who are
more self-reliant when it
comes to auto maintenance.
Located at Building
460, near the Racquetball
Center and Gate 5, the
Auto Hobby Shop is
open from 10 a.m. to 8
p.m. Wednesday through
Friday, and 9 a.m. to 4
p.m. on weekends.
We provide a facility where you can work
on your car out of the
rain, snow and cold, said
Machinist Mate 2nd Class
Steven Collier, assigned to
the Auto Hobby Shop. We
provide tools, equipment,
and car lifts for people to
use, from screw drivers to
tire balancers, we should
be able to help.
Sailors can perform a
wide range of work on
their vehicles at the Auto
Hobby Shop. Patrons
sometimes replace their
entire brake systems,
said Collier. Ive also
seen
people
replace
engines and transmissions
for their cars.
