We are thinking of setting up an ARSOF recruiting booth at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb this year and we're wondering if a good amount of Soldiers attend. Do a lot show up?

Damn. When I was stationed at Ft Carson 72-74 it was mandatory to climb it yearly.

Have you thought of Territory Days in Old Colorado City; or believe it or not, COSCOM? At the hill climb space is limited unless you're thinking Downtown during the Tech inspection and show prior to the race. On the hill, good Fest. If you work with Recruiting Command at these events together you might pull some applicants to enlist in USA with a proviso for OPS.
