Best Bets: World War II Remembered

Re-enactors keep the spirit of the Greatest Generation alive during World War II Remembered, an annual salute to veterans from World War II, Korea, Vietnam and other U.S. military conflicts. Artifacts and vehicles will be on display, and visitors can speak with veterans on-site. Kids' activities run throughout both days, and all ages can see the weapons demonstrations or skirmishes at 3 p.m. Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday. Admission is free, but donations are encouraged, with half the proceeds going to the Honor Flight program.
