Defender's Own launches!

[Cheeze_IZ_G00d]

I just wanted to let everyone know that my business partner and I recently launched the beta version of our military exclusive social network. I know I had mentioned this to some of you guys a couple of months ago, well know we have something tangible. Currently, we are running the site as an invite-only beta test. Right now we are searching for test members, and I was hoping that some of you active duty, veteran, recruit, or military family members would check it out. If you are interested visit www.defendersown.com, PM me, or send me an email at betatest@defendersown.com. If you guys would be willing to sign up, use it, and provide us with some feedback, we would really appreciate it.

Thanks,
Shane

Today we unlocked the site for everyone. If everyone who visited the first time would do us a solid and go back to http://www.defendersown.com/community and really check the site out, we would really appreciate it.

Thanks,
Shane

Oh, and if anyone knows anyone who is stationed at the National Guard Armory at 52nd and McDowell, I would really appreciate a PM.

Thanks Mike!

Please note that your input is very much encouraged and appreciated, we want to make this the best military site going. Again, just note that it is a very early version of the site, we plan on adding many, many more features which will make it even better!

As for the rest of you, if you could just take a look at it and give us some feedback about how it looks, we would really appreciate it. Obviously, it would be awesome if you would join, but anything you can do to help is great.

Thanks again,
Shane

Attention everyone!

I just wanted to make you all aware of an event that we are hosting in conjunction with Operation: Military Kids and AZ on the Rocks indoor rock climbing gym. On Friday, August 29, from 3pm-10pm, members of the military community (active duty soldiers, reservists, veterans, military family members, and recruits) will be offered free climbing gear rental, and will be treated to a potluck dinner at the inaugural Military Appreciation Day at AZ on the Rocks. So, if you are interested in getting a great workout, spending time with other military affiliated folks, and supporting our initiative, please head over to http://www.defendersown.com to register and get the full scoop. Our founding team will be out there to answer any questions that you might have about the site as well. Hurry, the registration deadline is Thursday, August 28!

Also, I wanted to make you all aware that Defender's Own will be at the American Legion national convention exhibit hall from August 22-26! We will be in booth #508, so if you are going to be there, drop by and say hello!

Thanks,
Shane

Hi guys,

I just wanted to remind everyone about our Military Appreciation Day at AZ on the Rocks indoor climbing gym in Scottsdale. We are looking forward to a great event, but we need people to show up. If you are interested, please visit the website for full details and to register.

Also, please remember that we will be at the American Legion's national convention from August 22-26. If you any of you are going to this event, please stop by and say hello.

Finally, if you have not already, please drop by the site and take a look around. As a preliminary BETA test site, we are looking for new members and new ideas about how we should make this the best site we can.

Thanks again,
Shane
