Coastal Georgia Honor Flight Return Celebration

On Saturday, May 13, Coastal Georgia Honor Flight will honor local veterans with a private, chartered flight to Washington D.C. where they can visit the national monuments dedicated to the conflicts and branches of the military in which they served. Volunteers may still be needed for assistance with that flight. Community members of all ages are invited to come out to the Brunswick-Golden Isles Airport the evening of the flight’s return on May 13 to welcome home our veterans with patriotic signs and fanfare. This is our way of giving them the warm and ceremonious welcome they may never have received during their time of service. Flight expected to return at 9:30pm. Please arrive early. Tipsy McFly’s will be open and serving food & beverages.

Monetary donations are also needed for these flights because every veteran who wants to participate is given the opportunity free of charge. Please visit coastalgeorgiahonorflight.org for more detailed information, volunteer and giving opportunities. Watch their Facebook page and the Brunswick-Golden Isles Airport page for additional information about the timing of Coastal Georgia Honor Flight’s return the evening of May 13.
