“We had approximately 1, 200 attend last year,” said Chuckie Hospers, event director for the hangar dance. “Period attire is not mandatory, but it adds to the fun and we always award prizes for the best dressed. We see everything from 1940’s suits and dresses to period military uniforms.”
Each year the museum pays tribute to a specific group or historic event. This year it is the 60th Anniversary of the Air Force. All Air Force and Air National Guard members, veterans, active duty, or reserve will be recognized.
