2014 WWII Weekend at Graeme Park


Even though spring seems far away and it feels like we may never see the grass again, our committee has been hard at work planning the 2014 WWII Weekend at Graeme Park, which will take place on Saturday, May 3 and Sunday, May 4. Once again, we have a ton of great entertainment, interesting period displays, and of course the battle reenactment in store for you.



Reenactors representing troops from America, Germany, Great Britain and Poland are all on board again this year so you can see the differences in camp set-ups, equipment, vehicles, and battle tactics. WWII veterans will be on hand so we can honor them during a special ceremony and many have stories, books, photos, and displays to share. We're also adding the Ultimate Abbott and Costello Tribute Show this year and bringing back the Society Music Makers for a swing band concert. Please review the schedule for an action packed weekend and plan to spend the day (or the whole weekend) with us.
