ARMY'S ARMY HAPPENINGS
Show your support - hit a local drive-through!
Stop by Sonic, at 1208 N. Bragg Blvd, in Spring Lake on Monday September 3rd or 17th, and support our brave servicemen and women. Sonic will donate a portion of its proceeds from both days to the Army's Army to help further our mission of supporting our soldiers, veterans and their families.
Soldiers Say 'Thanks Again' For Dining At Fazoli's!
We would like to thank everyone who came out on Friday, August 31st to eat at Fazoli's and show their support for the military. A portion of the proceeds from that day was donated to the Army's Army. We would especially like to thank Fazoli's for their continued support of soldiers, veterans and their families.
Fazoli's and the Army's Army will be teaming up once a month, so if you missed this one, stay tuned for the next one in September.
