The Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum recently completed an exciting and critical capital project that allows us to better tell the story of our heroic service men and women. We created a permanent museum facility and a motor pool style vehicle display building. These facilities provide special exhibit, collections and conservation space as well as safely secure and display the museum’s three vintage military vehicles plus our one-half scale Higgins Boat. We continue to work to make the museum a leading resource on the history, values, and lasting significance of World War II. We are prepared to educate audiences for generations to come.

Inaugural Camp Gordon Johnston Benefit Golf Tournament Honors Pearl Harbor Day
Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum and St. James Bay Golf Club will be hosting an Inaugural Camp Gordon Johnston Benefit Golf Tournament on the anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. This tournament is being held on Pearl Harbor Day to honor the brave men and women who responded to our country’s need and served in the armed forces at home and abroad. The tournament is scheduled for Saturday, December 7 at St. James Bay Golf Club in Carrabelle, FL beginning at 9:00 am. The Camp Gordon Johnston Museum will display vehicles and artifacts on site during the tournament. Following the tournament there will be a buffet at the Crooked River Grill in the St. James Bay Clubhouse.
All proceeds will help fund a new building to house Camp Gordon Johnston’s three historical military vehicles, including the famous WWII DUKW. These historical military vehicles are still operable and because of the lack of space onsite at the museum, currently they must be kept at a separate location.
There are many sponsorship options available to support the Museum. A variety of volunteer opportunities are also available for positions like greeters and judges for the putting contest. Help preserve the memories of those who served our country while having a great time in the process.
