Redoubt Wire
Our Mission: Help communities notice and celebrate their people.
Right now, Redoubt Wire covers only Army West Point Athletics stories.
What is it? A free email service to get updates on the awesome activities cadet-athletes do on the fields/rinks/pools/courts of friendly strife. Pick the athletes you want to hear about or whole teams. When one of them is mentioned in an Army West Point Athletics story, you get an email the next morning with a short summary and a link to the story.
Sign-up isn't open yet. To be told when it opens, email hello@redoubtwire.com.
