Re-enlistment

We look forward to the great things he will contribute to the U.S. Army in the future.

Spooky Woods

Sgt. 1st Class Luevano and five Soldiers, attended and participated in the Spooky Woods event in High Point, N.C. Friday, Sept. 28 and Staff Sgt. George and five Soldiers did the same on Saturday, the 29th.
The purpose was to increase its phase line for graduate and senior enlistments and interest and awareness of Army Programs while strengthening a strong working relationships with a large business within the community.                                                                                            

Recruiter Comments: We were able to make this event successful, regardless of weather. The Kersey Valley Employees and Owner (Tony Wohlgemuth) allowed us to use the whole property to our advantage. We were able to ride the tram to each location with the people who were going through the course. This allowed us to have more visibility and a chance to get more interaction with all personnel going through Spooky Woods. An Army Reserve Banner was hung in the center of the Spooky Woods trail and it will hang there throughout the month of October for more Army Visibility. While at the event we were also able to conduct a free raffle both nights giving away a total of four free laser tag gift cards and eight free Dark Circus passes.
The event allowed us to obtain a total of 69 leads for the whole company. Out of those leads 33 were in the High Point area, 26 for the company (Greensboro and Winston Center's) and 10 within the BN Area. This event will cover three more weekends witch should produce over 200 leads.
