Currahee Military Weekend Highlights

Congratulations to everyone for your support and participation in this year’s Currahee Military Weekend.

The Friday night Hangar Dance was well attended and prizes were given to the winner of the 40’s costume – won by Tucker Joe Loudermilk and the dance contest - won by his parents Robbie and Michelle Loudermilk.

On Saturday we had a record of 428 participants at the Currahee Challenge. The 3mile up and 3mile down event was won by local Clint Sanders with at time of 41:55.

After that the Opening Ceremonies were delivered to a packed crowd and included the Purple Heart Ceremony for US Army Sergeant Jonathan Merck.

The Civil Air Patrol had 60 volunteers and logged 559 man hours to coordinate the airport events. 140 people got a ride on the Huey helicopter.

All this and more - would not be possible without the support of our sponsors and volunteers. For a complete list of sponsors please visit the Chamber’s website at toccoagachamber.com.
