ARMY'S ARMY HAPPENINGS

On March 3, Stacy Strauss, director of sales, and Janine West, executive director of operations for the Army’s Army presented to the Cumberland County Veteran’s demonstrating how the Army’s Army supports our troops. Many were excited to join and new relationships were built with other organizations such as the Rolling Thunder, Inc. Chapter 1 NC and the American Legion.

Rolling Thunder is also a non-profit organization-their mission is to publicize POW-MIA issues to educate the public that many American prisoners of war were left behind after all previous wars, and to help correct the past to protect future veterans from being left behind should they become prisoners of war or missing in action.

The Army’s Army is looking forward to teaming up with the Cumberland County Veteran’s, as well as Rolling Thunder in their efforts to support the military and their families.

    WHAT YOU CAN DO TO BE MORE INVOLVED

Be a buddy! Be a friend! It's all happening the weekend of April 23-25, 2010, when the Dogwood Festival is in full bloom.

Fayetteville/Cumberland County will be hosting an Orientation Weekend inviting to town all civilian DOD families considering relocating to Fayetteville/Cumberland County.

All weekend long activities will take place to help families learn about the area and give them the tools to decide if we are the right community for them.

The Army's Army could really use you. We currently have 20 volunteers who have signed up. We still need 40 more friendly, outgoing volunteers to serve as a "buddies" to these families. By giving them a perspective of someone that actually lives here and sharing the parts of the community they otherwise wouldn't find, you're helping ease the strain of a difficult moving decision. You will help answer their questions, build a potential friendship, and share your opinions about what makes Fayettevillle/Cumberland County a great place.
