Dear Camp Gordon Johnston Association Members and Supporters:  You are cordially invited to attend   Smithsonian’s Museum Day Live! Co-Sponsored by Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum, Carrabelle History Museum, and Crooked River Lighthouse   Saturday, September 23 10 am - 5 pm Free Admission For the first time all three of Carrabelle’s fascinating museums are participating in Smithsonian’s Museum Day Live! with extended hours, free admission, and special activities and exhibits. For this special promotion, see Camp Gordon Johnston’s WWII military vehicles, an exhibit about historic trains and steamboats at the Carrabelle History Museum and 103’ tower climbs at the Crooked River Lighthouse.   World War II and antique military vehicles will be on display including Camp Gordon Johnston’s DUKW and military veterans will be on hand. We will be showing authentic Army training films taken throughout Franklin County during WWII. These provide a wonderful illustration of what the area was like back in the 1940s.

Refreshments will be served.
