The Exchange Supports The Battle Against Veteran Suicide Paragon and The Greg Stube Foundation recently partnered with The Fort Sam Houston Exchange to bring the foundation’s message of hope & perseverance to critically wounded soldiers recovering on base. On this day, our Foundation’s battle against veteran suicide was made possible by Madeline Salazar, GM of the Fort Sam Houston Exchange. Madeline &?her team set up multiple book signings at the Main PX where excited customers were able to meet Greg Stube, Special Forces Green Beret (Ret.), purchase autographed copies of his book, & support the Greg Stube Foundation by purchasing “Hug a Turd” merchandise. Paragon matched all earnings generated by the Exchange’s sales before donating 100% of the proceeds to The Greg Stube Foundation. Thanks to the hard work of Madeline & her team, Greg was able to spend several hours with a group of MEDCoE students & a group of wounded soldiers who are facing extraordinary challenges.?As a fellow critically wounded soldier who spent nearly 2 years recovering in military hospitals, Greg related directly to their struggles & shared, with them, his personal journey of overcoming adversity. He spoke candidly about the emotional & mental challenges soldiers face, emphasizing the importance of resilience, seeking help, & supporting one another. Greg also took the opportunity to discuss the critical topic of suicide prevention & mental health, urging those present to reach out for support & to stand together in helping each other through difficult times. At the end of his talk, Greg received a standing ovation from those that were physically able to stand. He, and the Paragon support team, then spent time hugging wounded soldiers and speaking to them one on one until everyone had been heard. A heartfelt thank you to everyone at The Exchange for their exceptional effort in organizing & executing this event. Madeline Salazar (General Manager), Antonio Porter (Vice President), Tim Gerrish (Store Manager) and Kathleen Phelps (Retail Business Manager) all played key roles in bringing the event together. Your commitment made a lasting impact, ensuring an unforgettable experience for all those who had the opportunity to connect with Greg. The Exchange is not just a place for our troops to shop, it’s also a place where military families can find connection, offering a vital sense of community & support. Working in conjunction with organizations like the Greg Stube Foundation, Military Exchanges play a pivotal role in raising awareness for veteran suicide prevention while also providing ongoing service & support to our veterans and their families. Through events like this, The Exchange fosters meaningful connections & ensure our troops feel supported & valued. Paragon & The Greg Stube Foundation are proud to support The Exchange, & their leadership, as they continue their mission of supporting our veteran community. #HugATurd #ParagonCares #GregStubeFoundation #AAFES

?? What an amazing weekend with the “Shoot Like a Girl” event at Fort Cavazos! Paragon was proud to support The Exchange’s recent “Shoot Like a Girl” firearms event at Fort Cavazos. The turnout was fantastic, with hundreds of attendees eagerly lining up to visit the “Shoot Like a Girl” trailer and enjoy delicious food cooked on Paragon’s Traeger grills. It’s no surprise that Fort Cavazos management reported a significant boost in customer traffic at the Main Exchange during both days of the event. The highlight of the event was the “Shoot Like a Girl” trailer, which provided an exciting, hands-on experience where participants could safely test-fire firearms—without live ammunition, just pure excitement! Paragon’s vendors generously contributed thousands of dollars in free product giveaways, creating a buzz among our customers. A special thanks to our Paragon representative, Dennis Zimmerman, for his dedication and hard work throughout the event. We also extend our gratitude to The Exchange team at Fort Cavazos for their outstanding partnership and for hosting such a successful event! As The Exchange continues to build bridges to the future, Paragon will be there to support their efforts. #ParagonCares #ParagonSupport #ShootLikeAGirl #FtCavazos #MilitaryCommunity #EmpoweringEvents #TheExchange

MAY I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE! I can't tell you if sharing a post, adding a link, or putting this out during the early morning, late evening, weekday, or weekend will catch the algorithmic wave. I know retail. I know marketing. I know customers. Or I am a student of retail, marketing, and consumer behavior and having the chance to learn from and be inspired by those like Ron Thurston fuels me! And getting to do this podcast with Paula Gean and Gautham Vadakkepatt to share with everyone, including my students is extremely rewarding. So - if you caught this wave? I'd love for you to take a listen, follow us on LinkedIn, send me feedback, and maybe rate the show on one of the platforms? I'd really appreciate it! THAT IS ALL!

A Heartwarming Moment at the Patriot Day Event at Ramstein – Thanks to Sandpiper of California ? At our Patriot Day event at Ramstein on September 11th, several of us were lucky to witness a truly special moment. Dino, the Operations Director for Sandpiper of California, met Lily, a beautiful young lady, on the autism spectrum, who usually feels shy about taking photos. However, she felt so comfortable around Dino, and was so impressed with his giant size Bugout bag he brought to the event, that she volunteered for a photo with the bag, smiling from ear to ear—something her family was delighted to see.? ? In addition to creating this beautiful memory, Sandpiper of California generously donated one of their high-quality Loadout bags to the family. Lily was so delighted with the gift that she climbed right into the bag as soon as she got home—definitely not its intended use, but Paragon thinks it just might be the best one yet! ?? ? This moment truly captured the spirit of the Patriot Day event at Ramstein and reflects Paragon's mission to touch the lives of both our military service members and our valued customers. Thank you, Dino and Sandpiper, for your generosity and for making such a meaningful connection with Lily and her family. ?? ? The Exchange continues building bridges to the future, and Paragon is honored to support their mission. #PatriotDay #ParagonCares #HeartwarmingMoments #SandpiperOfCalifornia #MilitaryCommunity #ConnectingWithFamilies #DinoAndLily #SpecialMemories #InclusionMatters #BuildingBridges #LoadoutBagJoy #SupportOurTroops #ThankYouDino #MakingMemories #CommunitySupport
