When National Guard members and reservists shop the Camp Gruber Exchange, they are making life better for all who wear the uniform. 100% of Exchange earnings support military communities.
“It’s important to provide the Camp Gruber community with better resources and more food options while on the installation,” Eaves said. “The Exchange is dedicated to bringing safe, secure and sanitized shopping, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
