| Speaking From Experience: Mitch Durfee '14
Date:Thursday, November 3rd
Time: 7:00pm
Location: Perry Hall Presentation Space
After being part of many missions in Afghanistan, Mitch had another mission in mind - to help his fellow veterans successfully find their way back to civilian life. His solution - Grunts Move Junk - a business which would hire veterans, give them their first job stateside and help them on their way. Yes, they will move your junk, but they do so much more, and they do it with a crispness of execution that reflects military pride and tradition and results in great service and happy customers. Please encourage your student to join us to hear Mitch's story and learn more about his business, Grunts Move Junk.
