When a military family receives orders to move to a new location, accurate information can be hard to find. Most of what's available is often outdated, irrelevant, or validates poor perceptions about the local community around the military installation.

Our aim is to provide information on areas surrounding military installations to build a more positive outlook and experience for military members and their families. Our goal is to replace the dread and anxiety often associated with military moves with the anticipatory savoring associated with a new adventure.

We provide information on the community using written products, still and video imagery, and interviews to share stories of local citizens and military members.

But what's up with that name? The military community uses the Military Grid Reference System to navigate. We use squares as a reference, and a 'grid' is how we find our location. When we get orders to move, the first thing we do is recon the area. Hence, Grid Square Recon.
