Boston Platoon

Event overview

Come join the Boston 1st Service Platoon at Boston's only COMBAT ARCHERY arena for a few hours of team-building fun! Combat archery allows two teams to battle it out with bows and foam tipped arrows in the Archery Games arena. The game-play is similar to dodge-ball and the ultimate objective of the game is to tag all of the opposing players with arrows in order to eliminate them from the game. Finally, obstacles in the arena change every round, so be sure to stay on your toes! This game itself is CHILD-FRIENDLY as long as they are age 10+. The arrows don't leave bruises thanks to their foam tips, but it can be shocking to get hit with one! Protective masks are provided by the facility. Because space is limited, we will start with (2) slots per family. Event Date/Time: Saturday, August 24th 2019 12:00 - 3:00PM Address: 121 Webster Avenue, #3 Chelsea, MA 02150

Who We Are

The Mission Continues is a national non-profit that empowers veterans to continue serving in our nation’s under-resourced communities, giving veterans the opportunity to keep serving even after the uniform comes off, right here at home. Our programs deploy veterans and volunteers to work alongside nonprofit partners and community leaders to improve educational resources, tackle food insecurity, foster neighborhood identity, and more.  

Who should volunteer?

Our service projects are for all veterans with a desire to continue their service and for all non-veterans that want to be part of a nationwide movement to transform communities. Please note, age and accessibility accommodations can be made at any project. There is room for everyone to make an impact.

What is a Service Platoon? 

Service Platoons are your opportunity to engage and connect with veterans and community members while generating community impact in a real and tangible way. Led by veteran volunteer platoon leaders, each platoon works with dedicated community partners and volunteers to provide the manpower and support that they need to help them do their work more effectively. 

We currently have service platoons in more than 40+ cities across the country that are having events at least once a month. Everyone is invited to serve, regardless of veteran status: a service platoon is for you if you have a passion for service.
