I know this is a Job Network post, but it's worth a try. Does anybody know of a contact within the Academy Sports Coporate Office?

I'm really trying to define my passion in a career and I keep coming back to what I love most and that's being in the outdoors. Any help is appreciative. Thanks in advance.

a guy I know is a forest ranger, not that that has anything to do with academy.

I can contact him and see what it takes to become a ranger if you want.

I know the CFO pretty well. I can send him your resume. (texangler@gmail.com) Keep in mind that its a tough market right now and they can be extremely picky, especially since they have been experiencing significant growth during a shrinking trend across similar industries, including Wal-Mart.

I'm not trying to dissuade you, just don't get your hopes up beause there are 1000's of guys like you looking for a job with Academy. Good luck.

On a local level, Vero might be able to help you out, as he has a relative that manages a store in the Tine area (I think).

I'm confused...

Academy Corporate Offices =/= Being outdoors

If it's being outdoors you like contact land surveyors or lanscape companies.

He is now with another company, Tex.

I know the director of loss prevention pretty well. He's my neighbor. What are you wanting to do, other than being outside of course. Is there a job posting on their website that you're interested in?

night shift for the warehouse is hiring.
