So...how is this going to work?

At 6:30 p.m. we will post to our wall the first message welcoming everyone to the

town hall. COL Kennedy will then invite you to ask a question, post a concern or

compliment by hitting 'comment'. Please DO NOT POST QUESTIONS TO THE

WALL. Only post your question, concern or compliment by hitting 'comment' on

COL Kennedy's original post.

Remember...

Fort Gordon's Leadership cares deeply about providing our Military Members

and Families with the best quality of life possible. However, when we have

problems or challenges along the way…… We want to use this forum as a way

to turn those challenges into positives. Please let us know if something is

frustrating you, but please try to do it in a constructive way.

Conversation screening....

Remember that this is our first time using Facebook for a forum like this. There is

a good chance that we may get a lot of folks joining in on the conversation. So

we may have to remove comments or posts that are not relevant or are

redundant or germane to the discussion. This does not mean we will censor; it

means we will screen the conversations to maximize the value of the discussion.

Need more privacy?

You can send us an issue sheet using the template at www.gordon.army.mil,

under “NOTICES”; “Town Hall.” Email the form to

[email protected]. We need to receive your email by 3 p.m.

EST in order to get it addressed at the Town Hall. (We will not be able to monitor

email during the discussion.) Any emails we receive after 3 p.m. EST will be sent

to the appropriate agency for action after 15 March 2011

So...what are the other rules?

“KEEP IT REAL”

• We appreciate and invite your honest comments. Tell us what’s working, what

needs improvement, and what services are exceptional.

"KEEP IT CLEAN”

• We want you to be honest, but we need the conversations to be constructive.

Let’s use these conversations to solve problems, not create more. We will

remove any posts that are abusive or use profanity.

“KEEP IT TO AN HOUR”

• The subject matter experts that we’ll have answering questions or providing

information will only have an hour to spend with us.

“KEEP IT IN MIND”

• This is a new effort, so we may experience some growing pains along the way.

Please be patient with us. Some questions we can answer on the spot, some

we’ll have to look into and get you the answers.
