Looking for a fun event to attend in June? Check out the CAF Minnesota Wing's Spring Swing Big Band Hangar Dance! The Commemorative Air Force Minnesota Wing has been hosting the USO-style swing dances since the mid-1980s, and while the formal hasn't changed, it's an evening of fun. Music is provided by the Roseville Big Band, which transports everyone right back to the 1940s. The backdrop is the museum's aircraft and a beautiful hangar, made during WWII in preparation for the war. While I love all the airplanes they have, the B-25 "Miss Mitchell" is a personal favorite. If music and WWII airplanes weren't enough, there is also a free dance lesson at 7 pm from the amazing TC Swing! Terry and Cindy, the group's owners, have also been hosting the dance lesson for years, and the event wouldn't be complete without them. During the evening, get ready for an exciting Vintage Clothing contest. If vintage fashion is your passion, this is your chance to shine and bring your A-Game! There's no need to worry about food before the event! Two amazing local food trucks will keep you fueled as you dance the night away. Enjoy K-TOWN STREET FOODS and Crystals Concessions until 11 p.m. Plus, they have a variety of drinks available, including beer, wine, cider, pop, and water. If you still need to tour the CAF Museum, you're in for a treat. As I write this, new museum cases are being constructed, which you can see during the event. The CAF also has a great PX (gift shop) to get a souvenir, and as I mentioned earlier, you can see and take photos with most of their aircraft. If you do make it, be sure to stop me and stay hello!
