Ten-hut! Teams line up for roll call and sound off to complete fun, military themed challenges. Each challenge rewards teams with vouchers they can cash in at the P/X for care package goodies. Completed packages, including personal notes of support, are sent to our military stateside or overseas!
Our “4-Star General” welcomes guests to the event by musical fanfare. Participants are divided and presented with their ultimate challenge – travel around their camp to complete a series of interactive drills and earn items to include in their care package. Each drill encourages the military to work together as a team.
Once squads have completed their mission, they have the opportunity to decorate paper and boxes for their items and design a card with a personalized note to send with their package. Pending availability, a USO of Illinois Representative or service member may also be on hand to give thanks to the squads and accept the packages. Imagine how appreciative our soldiers will be!
