Construction of the new school facilities on Vogelweh is slated to
begin this summer and will bring changes to the way base is accessed.
An update to the construction project on Vogelweh is just one of the topics to be discussed at the 21st Theater Sustainment Command and U.S. Army Garrison Kaiserslautern town hall meeting at 6 p.m. Monday at Armstrong’s Club on Vogelweh.
As a combined Army leadership event, this is the seventh town hall meeting for the KMC.
Town halls, which provide the community a one-stop shop for information, are held quarterly. Town halls were originally established to allow the senior mission commander and garrison leadership to talk with families and hear their concerns. They continue to be a forum to hear the voice of the community and an opportunity to bring about change.
Organized by the garrison’s Customer Management Services, these town hall meetings follow a format similar to the monthly garrison Community Information Forum in that subject matter experts will give a 10-minute brief followed by an open forum, giving the community a chance to ask questions and share their concerns.
Subject matter experts, including Defense Commissary Agency, Army and Air Force Exchange Service, Department of Defense Dependents Schools, Kaiserslautern Housing Management Office, and many others, will be in attendance to address any issues attendees may have.
Although the town halls are a combined Army leadership event, members of all branches of service and their family members are invited to attend. The information provided is not unique to Army families and can be useful for all military members in the KMC.
In addition to the construction update, there will be a Kaiserslautern Senior Working Group update, presentations on the Army Emergency Relief Campaign, and updates on the garrison’s Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation upcoming events.
Briefs should last about an hour and then the floor will be open for questions from the community.
