Title: USO Memories Show
Post by: pod962 on January 10, 2008, 09:58:13 AM
In an effort to make the 1941 Historical Aircraft Group more visible,  the group started having a USO Memories Show and our first USO show was held at the Geneseo Armory in 1994.  Since then the show has become a favorite event for members and guests from all over the United States as well as Canada.  The  Annual Memories USO Show is now held at the 1941 Aircraft Group Airfield at the Geneseo Airport and is enjoyed by all who attend. 

This year?s USO Memories Show will be held on the Saturday evening of the Geneseo Air Show, July 12, 2008 from 7-11 pm.  We are proud to announce that performing for us once again will be ?78 RPM? with their authentic repertoire of 1940?s music. So, come on over to just listen or kick off your shoes and dance the night away. It is a great picture taking opportunity.

Ticket prices up until 4:30 pm on July 12th are only $10.00.  Ticket prices at the door are $12.00.  Seating for this event goes fast so reservations for tab les (8-10) people or individual seats are highly encouraged.  1940s civilian and military attire is encouraged.  For additional information or ticket sale/reservations visit the www.1941hag.org website and click on the USO Memories link.

We are planning on a fashion show for the event.  I am looking for civilian or military 1940's attire.  Please let me know if you are interested in showing off your outfit or uniform.  Entrance to the USO Memories show is free for individuals who participate for 2 minutes of the fashion show.


Please let me know if these events are something your group may be interested in attending.
