Get Involved     

The BOSS goal is to keep everyone informed of current BOSS events, trips, volunteering and soldier issues on Fort Carson.
This web page is for all Soldiers at all levels of rank. It is every Soldier's responsibility to look out for the welfare of other Soldiers. Even if you are married, chances are you'll be in a leadership position at some point in your military career. In a leadership position you should know what your Soldiers are interested in, the programs that are available to them, and encourage and guide them to get involved.
If you have any ideas, concerns, suggestions, questions or just want to get involved, contact your BOSS representative, or the BOSS Office at (719)524-2677

Who May Participate?
All events are targeted at single Soldiers to include Single Parents, Single Officers and Geographical Bachelors Soldiers. If you live in the Barracks or are a Single Soldiers then you’re in! BOSS is not a Membership it’s the right of all Single Soldiers to have the Opportunity to participate in the BOSS program. But it is up to the individual Soldier to decide if they want to participate.  

What is the Soldiers' Role in BOSS?
BOSS councils are comprised of single Soldiers from All units on the installation, from Brigades to Companies. Single Soldiers have an opportunity to become unit representatives, volunteer to assist in planning an event or attend BOSS activities. The Department of the Army BOSS circular defines the roles of the chain of command and MWR personnel at all levels. BOSS Representatives Should be Volunteers wanting to serve their Single Soldier Population. The BOSS Presidents goal is to win over “Hey You” Representatives. If a rep is unwilling to perform his duties as the Unit BOSS rep the BOSS President will inform the Chain of Command to replace said Rep. Single Soldiers Need the information as early as possible and a Rep that is willing to perform their Duties to the best of their abilities!
