We have over 25 vendors and exhibitors that will be at the event all day. Most vendors take credit cards but cash is always accepted. If you forget to bring cash you can visit the Flight Deck Diner across the parking lot. They have an ATM inside.
If you are a member or interested in becoming a member please visit the membership tent near the museum’s entrance. If you are looking to just visit the museum for the day you can make your way into the museum for standard admission.
Don’t forget your comfortable walking shoes, hat, and sunscreen! Looking forward to seeing everyone and thanks for supporting us!
