Dear Military Vehicle Enthusiasts: August 20, 2020
We are going to display at the Richmond Gun Show Saturday 9-5 and Sunday 10-5 August 29&30. This will be at their new location at Eastgate Mall – Laburnum and Nine Mile Road. I know this is the same date as the Nokesville War Museum, so we may have to divide our forces. Dabney is bringing his 2-1/2 truck, Fritz is bringing a mule, and I am bringing my jeep with a 50 cal. All members who come will be able to get into the show for free.
I recently received notice that Field Day for 2020 originally scheduled to be the last event at that location has been cancelled. We have been an enthusiastic supporter of that event for over 20 years. This event has brought the biggest crowds and the most donations to our organization. It will be missed...
As far as I know, Graves Mountain Military Event is still on. See details in the calendar below. Rob White, Dabney, Fritz and I are going.
This Covid-19 has put a real damper on our displays and even this year. Hopefully next year will be better!
