This extraordinary museum is one of the finest of its type in North America today.
It was the vision of Delford Smith’s son, Capt. Michael King Smith, who wanted
to create a place that inspired to be the best they could be. Capt. Smith became a
fighter pilot and flew lead in his F15 Fighter plan for the 123rd fighter squadron,
“the Red Hawks” with the Oregon National Guard. The museum is a gift from
the Evergreen International Aviation family of companies. And indeed, it is an
extraordinary gift. Its mission is to inspire, educate, promote, and preserve the
aviation and space history and honor the patriotic service of our veterans. This
wonderful museum is not only a repository of historic aviation and space artifacts
but also is a center of learning and a continual work in progress. It includes such
treasures as Howard Hughes renowned “Spruce Goose” and features an education
center that attracts, promotes, and educates young individuals interested in aviation
and space. This is truly a special museum and worth making it a destination for your
vacation. The museums together with their amphitheater create an opportunity for
a multi-day experience and one that you will not soon forget. For more details on
this extraordinary museum, please visit www.evergreenmuseum.org
