Atsushi Kadokawa Hometown: Fussa, Tokyo FSS Employee Spotlight What is your job and how long have you worked with Yokota FSS? I started my career at the Yujo Community Center in 1994. I have worked at Marketing for about eight years now. Describe your typical day on the job. I work as a graphic artist, designing various artwork including this Horizons magazine. Our department processes a lot of work orders every day, and those have never stopped since I started working here. Since joining FSS, what has been your most rewarding experience? Fortunately, I’ve experienced winning LeMay Awards both as part of the Community Center and Marketing teams. Such a fantastic feeling to be recognized after those hard working days! What was your first or most interesting job experience? An official trip to Keystone Colorado for attending the LeMay Award ceremony in 2009 was one of the greatest memories in my career. Since some of other FSS facilities also won, we traveled together to the States as a happy FSS group. Even though it was a trip with the tightest schedule in my life, it remains the most fun and exciting one for me. The Best Serving the Best—FSS! What is something you’ve always wanted to try? Since I had spent some years in Tennessee for school, I’d like to go back and live there at least for a while, if I could. Also visiting the States, to see those great friends I have met in FSS, is something I would love to do. SrA Mitchell Adkins Hometown: Hartford City, IN What is your job and how long have you worked with Yokota FSS? I work in the Fitness Assessment Cell and I have been at Yokota AB for 18 months. Describe your typical day on the job. I am part of a team that oversees and administers all Official Fitness Assessments to Air Force members. In addition to our FAC responsibilities, we support the rest of the Fitness Center Staff in our daily duties to include Sports and Special Events programs. Since joining FSS, what has been your most rewarding experience? The most rewarding experience for me is to assist people who struggle with meeting any of the fitness assessment standards by utilizing the knowledge I gained from courses such as Fitness Fundamentals, Personal training and current periodicals on fitness and health. What was your first or most interesting job experience? My first and most interesting experience is and will always be the Central Japan Bodybuilding Championships. I have always had an interest in bodybuilding and weightlifting in general. It was amazing to be able to assist with and witness everything that goes into putting on a successful event. Join Us!

What are your hobbies? Training and competing in Powerlifting and Strongman, competitive online gaming, eating and traveling any chance I get. What is your favorite thing to do or eat at FSS activities? My favorite place to eat is most definitely the Make-Your-Own-Pizza night at the Enlisted Club. What is your hidden talent? I would have to say it’s my ability to cook; a lot of people seemed to be surprised by it. 225-7713 No Federal endorsement of sponsor intended.

Why not turn it into a family fun day with a quick day trip to Odaiba? Odaiba is an artificially made island located in Tokyo Bay. It is one of only two areas in the Greater Tokyo Metropolis that has seashore accessible to Tokyoites. It was originally built as a defensive measure and one of the original battery islands can still be seen. However, Odaiba has now become a center for amusement and entertainment and takes approximately 90 minutes to get there by car from Fussa. For mom, Odaiba is a shopping mecca. Venus Fort, Aqua City, and Decks are a few of the main shopping malls located in the area. Whether it’s an outlet or a tiny boutique, there is a store for everyone. Don’t forget to head over to Diver City to see the giant Gundam statue in front. Kids don’t want to shop? Bring them to Hello Kitty Kawaii Paradise at Venus Fort. There, children can satisfy their love for the cute Japanese cartoon character by browsing through the hundreds of products dedicated to the Kawaii Kitty and even indulge in some Hello Kitty pancakes. If your child is a building block fanatic, head on over to Legoland where they can enjoy Lego themed rides and get inspired by a Tokyo cityscape built entirely of the tiny bricks. Or head on over to the Daikanransha, a 115 meters tall Ferris wheel, where the whole family can enjoy a spectacular view of Tokyo from the top. Dads and older kids can get their gaming fix at Sega Joypolis, an indoor amusement park. Joypolis offers virtual racecar games, space missions, roller coaster rides, arcade games and even a tank inspired bumper car ride. Is dad a car enthusiast? Stop by Toyota Megaweb, Toyota’s car theme park where dad can see current and future Toyota products and even test-drive a vehicle on their 2-lap course. Finally, relax along the Odaiba seaside park. Swimming is not allowed, however, families can enjoy wading in the water, having a picnic and watching the lights illuminate Rainbow Bridge across the water. These are just a few of the vast array of entertainment that Odaiba has to offer and one day is never enough time to enjoy it all. YUJO COMMUNITY CENTER 225-7713 • Bldg. 327 Planning to visit Odaiba? Then head down to the Yujo Community Center’s front desk for road maps and advice on what to see and do. VEHICLE OPERATIONS 225-7720 • Bldg. 1290 Want to drive to Odaiba?
