Join us on Tuesday, May 5th as we gather inside the Museum & Aircraft Hangar to honor the men and women who have served our nation. This annual lunch is a time for fellowship, gratitude, and community, where Veterans, Servicemembers, and grateful Americans come together to share a meal and celebrate service.

Breaking bread with local heroes is one of the most meaningful ways to say, “thank you,” and we invite you to be part of this special afternoon.

Veterans’& Servicemembers meals are complimentary, and all guests, including Veterans, must reserve their spot so we can prepare enough food for everyone.

Online reservations close April 30th, and seating is limited. 

Every attendee will also enjoy a spin on our Red, White & Blue Prize Wheel, adding a little fun to this heartfelt day.

Lunch includes a full tour of our Museum, featuring over 110 exhibits and expanded educational displays throughout.

To‑Go options are available.
