Stress Management Workshop
A Stress Management Workshop will be held on Saturday August 2nd, 10:00am at the Dundalk Armory.

Are you feeling stressed from a recent deployment? With the return of school in August for kids, are you dreading all the activities that come along with it? Do you feel like there is never enough time to just relax? If the answer to these questions is a yes, sign up for the Stress Management Workshop! This workshop will be about 2 hours in length, and will contain information and techniques on how to balance stress in your life as well as some helpful hints for de-stressing, for those times when stress creeps in, despite our best efforts to keep it away. If you would like more information, or are interested in attending this workshop, please contact either of the following:
