Any Air Force vets here that were stationed at Grand Forks?

I was stationed there from '82 to '94 and the base used to have these open house events during the summer that were called Friends and Neighbors Day. These events usually took place over an entire weekend and they allowed the general public to walk around the flight line to view aircraft and watch the air shows. I'm wondering if the base still has these events. I realize any event like this would have been canceled for this year due to the virus, but I'm planning on taking a trip back to the base next summer and would like to plan my trip so I can be there during this event, if they still have it. Do any of you know if they do?

This didn't sound like the same event I was talking about. This sounded like it was just a one day thing...Friends and Neighbors Day used to go on over an entire weekend...

It may have been cancelled after 9/11.

Yep.
