Palm Springs Pacific Union Agents Visit The Palm Springs Air Museum

Pacific Union Real Estate in Palm Springs recently announced plans for community awareness and interaction projects including workshops, seminars and tours of area attractions. As part of that series, agents toured The Palm Springs Air Museum last Tuesday afternoon. After a lunch provided by The Freedom Fighters Cafe located in the museum, several docents took smaller groups of agents through the exhibits.

The Palm Springs Air Museum houses one of the nation's largest collection of World War II flying aircraft displayed in modern, well lighted, air-conditioned and clean hangars. The Buddy Rodgers Theater shows daily documentaries about aviation in the military with an emphasis on World War II. In addition to planes and historic artifacts, the museum is host to a library of 6300 volumes primarily related to aviation and American military history.

Complimenting the extensive displays, the museum sponsors Saturday commemorative educational programs for visitors and members which often include exhibition flights. On those days, members and visitors can participate in the sights and sounds that made history.

Many of the Pacific Union agents had not been to the museum before but all attendees were impressed with the volunteer staff, their knowledge and their personal stories and input.
