ROARING 20's PARTY - Fun for the Whole Family
Join in the Roaring 20’s Celebration of Hamilton Field’s 94th birthday on February 18, 2023, Saturday, from noon-2 pm-ish. Enjoy swing / big band sounds, games, birthday cake and lemon-lime soda to honor this exciting day. This iconic moment is the reason we have our Hamilton homes and the Hamilton Theater in this amazing neighborhood!

THE BACK STORY
On February 20, 1929, Lt.Col. Brant, Commander of Crissy Air Field in San Francisco, made a survey of three possible sites for a new airfield in Marin County. (Crissy Field suffered from poor weather conditions.) One week later, a squadron of five planes from Crissy Field landed at Marin Meadows (now our Hamilton Field).
