Military Appreciation and Celebration Recognition Day - May 15, 2010

Crestview Florida is hosting the 3rd Annual Military Appreciation and Recognition Celebration (MARC) on May 15, 2010 at the Spanish Trail Fairgrounds. This year's MARC is beginning to be one of the largest local Military Appreciation Celebration in the area. This year's theme is the welcoming of the Army's 7th Special Forces Group to the area. The festivities will be opened with the 7th Special Forces Group Parachute Demonstation Team jumping and landing at the Fairground for the opening ceremony. The Coast Guard is planning a Fly-By and hoover over the fairgrounds, as well. The 7th Special Forces Group from Fort Bragg is busing a number of families from Fort Bragg for the event to accept the City's hospitality. The fairgrounds will have a number of events and entertainment throughout the day, free lunch to Veterans, and a variety of sponsors giving thanks to Veterans. If you want to see the impact the growth of the military is having on our area, you need to put this date on your calendar.
