August 16, 2007: **Contest- Support Our Troops!!!**
I am sure that you know the close ties that Amware has with our military. Whether it be by personally serving, or having family members currently abroad, our team has been personally affected by the fight oversees. Our troops need all of our support. The website, www.anysoldier.com is a great resource to do just that. There you can find contact information and the personal requests of soldiers who are currently deployed. Above anything else, soldiers love to receive letters.
The contest is two fold:
1) The facility with the most letters sent to troops by their employees wins lunch.
2) The individual who sends the most letters gets a jacket.
The website will allow each person to request 2 addresses a day.
The contest will start today and end October 31st.
*Before you send your letters, email Tavon a copy at TavonB@amwarelogistics.com with your facility name in the subject line. This will count as your entry for the contest.
(Attached is a flier for printing with details on contest)
The Amware Executive Team is very excited about this effort to support our troops. Rob Doyle is happy to present the winner with the jacket and the winning facility with lunch. You are not obligated to participate, but are only encouraged to.
