VILLAS – Naval Air Station Wildwood (NASW) Aviation Museum will hold a 1940s Style Big Band Concert and Dance for the second year running. The dance will take place Sept. 27 from 7 p.m. – 10 p.m. at historic Hangar #1. The night will feature live music by the 14 piece Big Band, Walt Wagner and the Serenaders as well as dance instruction by Tom Cupp. According to Chief Operating Officer Bruce Fournier, “Last year’s dance was a huge hit. The atmosphere in the hangar is really something special. Advanced ticket sales have been strong and we expect to sell out!”
As an improvement to the event for 2014, dinner will be fully catered by Shore Side Catering. In addition to the live music, guests will enjoy dance instruction on a real wooden dance floor in a setting unlike any other, an all wooden Navy aircraft hangar constructed during WWII. 1940s style dress is encouraged. Included with ticket purchase, all attendees will receive a professional individual or group photograph. Tickets are already selling fast. Individual tickets and full table sales are still available. Tickets are required, advanced purchase is encouraged. Tickets are available at the museum office, online (usnasw.org) or by phone (609-886-8787).
This program is made possible in part by funds from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a Partner Agency of the National Endowment for the Arts. The funds were administered by the Cape May County Culture and Heritage Commission, under the authority of the Department of Tourism, for the Board of Chosen Freeholders.
Naval Air Station Wildwood Aviation Museum is located in Historic Hangar #1 at the Cape May Airport, New Jersey. Cape May Airport was formerly Naval Air Station Wildwood, which served as a World War II dive-bomber training center. The museum is dedicated to the 42 airmen who perished while training at Naval Air Station Wildwood between 1943 and 1945.
