Crestview WWII Commemoration

Let's pause for a moment and remember all those who made today's Victory in Europe observances possible. And bless these young people who honored them in their re-enactor portrayals and by sharing materials from their personal collections to further our visitors to Race to the Rhein's understanding of World War II.

Hey folks. We're on-site and getting ready for the Race to the Rhein living history weekend! We just found out the parking lot next to the Senior Activity Center will be closed off Friday and Saturday, 24 and 25 April. If you're a vendor or exhibitor or re-enactor bringing your gear or displays to the Senior Center, you will enter the grounds NOT from the parking lot, but at the bend in the road, then drive the track down to the Senior Center parallel to the closed-off road. Got all that? We're going to try to put up signage. But we're getting ready for this weekend's Race to the Rhein! See you there!

Our annual World War II living history weekend will again feature the Door Table, a dignified and respectful opportunity to recognize your elders and ancestors who served in World War II, either on the front or on the Homefront. Bring your FRAMED photo of your loved one to the Bush House/Crestview History Museum, 198 South Wilson St., by Wednesday, April 22. After that date, take your framed photo directly to the Senior Activity Center in Spanish Trail Park. Your photo will be treated with all honor and respect as it is placed on the Honor Table.
