Currahee Military Weekend
October 5 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm
In July 1942, 5,000 men arrived at the remote training camp 5 miles outside of Toccoa, Georgia at Currahee Mountain for training as a new type of soldier – a paratrooper. Over the next few years 17,000 soldiers from 501st, 506th, 511th, and 517th Parachute Infantry Division (PID) trained at Camp Toccoa in preparation to defend the free world from the German offensive that was World War II.
Plan your trip now for the Currahee Military Weekend Experience! You will not regret it!
Allied/Axis Encampments will be set up on the lawn of the Stephens County Courthouse as well as the Welcome Center Parking Lot on Friday and Saturday. Toccoa Army-Navy Store will be open all weekend!
