I am a local business owner and would like to know how I would get to be able to set up a table to give away great deals on tanning, classes and gym memberships?
Rei said on May. 17, 2010 at 9:02pm
Are children allowed to come with since there is no child care or is it preferred to be a none child event?
RangerKen said on May. 18, 2010 at 10:15am
Kids would need to be heavily monitored and not allowed to take any of the gifts for themselves. One gift per family.

To register as a business, contact Christy Loe at our office - (253) 584-1212.

Hi Ken! I'd be happy to do a glam makeover for the winners! That way they will be really pampered and look great for the photo shoot! Call me!

Wondered if you will contact us personally if we win or do we have to keep our eyes peeled in the paper and on here?
Tina said on May. 20, 2010 at 6:21pm
Wondering what kind of classes will be there. Thanks!

I am happy to see supportive events for spouses!! So many guys away right now, and I appreciate things that help us be ready for our hubbies for when they finally come home, especially on the topic of "Romancing our Soldiers"!!! ~Thanks!!

RangerKen said on May. 26, 2010 at 4:22pm
Yes, teenagers are welcome. Yes, a lot like Valentine's Day ... but no food. Please tell your friends.

I take it this is only for the spouses that have someone that is currently deployed?
Krystal said on May. 29, 2010 at 12:01pm
I am in nursing school and have clinicals that day until 3, so I would be there by 330. Am I going to be missing a lot of the drawings and give-aways? Wish there was a way I could be there all day, but just can't. :(
RangerKen said on May. 29, 2010 at 2:28pm
Lots of prizes throughout the day...come at 3:30 and enjoy.
RangerKen said on May. 29, 2010 at 2:29pm
The event is open to ALL spouses - deployed or not. Please come and enjoy. Army, Air Force, Guard, all.

I have never been to anything like this before, but it sounds fun!
Shelby said on Jun. 01, 2010 at 12:55pm
Ken,
I am a confirmed vendor and we are very exciting about sharing out opportunities and prizes with the soldiers and their families. Both myself, and my boss however are both currently disabled and not physically able to carry in our table, chairs, ect. Do you know who I can get in contact with in order to hopefully make arrangements for assistance?
Krystal said on Jun. 01, 2010 at 7:45pm
Is there any way to sign up for things before the event in case I am not there in time for all of the drawings, or do you have to be present to enter the drawings?
Abby said on Jun. 01, 2010 at 8:05pm
Is there a schedule for the day some where? I didnt know if this was a come and go event...Thanks!
RangerKen said on Jun. 02, 2010 at 6:25am
You may come and go. A schedule will be handed out at the entrance, thought the class schedule is available on the sign-up page.
RangerKen said on Jun. 02, 2010 at 6:26am
No sign-up for prizes. We are offering prizes throughout the day at our two Ranger newspaper tables, plus prizes are available at each class.
RangerKen said on Jun. 02, 2010 at 6:26am
We will have staff to help vendors set up....no problem.
