Welcome Home “Marge” @ Poplar WI

Sunday, July 26 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

  Poplar
Six people in safety vests stand on an airport tarmac in front of an airplane wing and a large piece of twisted debris on a cart, with hills and a blue sky in the background.
“Marge” is coming home! Join the Bong Museum in Poplar on July 26th from 2pm-4pm to be the first to see the “Marge” wingtip in person!! We will meet on Hwy 2 next to the historical markers in Poplar, Wisconsin.
As Richard Bong’s hometown, we want Poplar to be the first to see this iconic and important piece of history!!
Also in attendance will be Pacific Wrecks, a representative of the National Museum and Art Gallery in Papua New Guinea and a representative of Madang Province in Papua New Guinea.
