ANNUAL EVENTS

Traveler’s TipFind a detailed list of all

area events and everything that’s cool to do at

visitingmontgomery.com

#mymgm


Heritage Hotspots

Walk in the footsteps of world-changing events. Montgomery was the cradle of the Confederacy and, a century later, the impetus of the Civil Rights Movement.

Warm Welcomes

The friendly smiles of Montgomery people under-score the fact that manners matter here.

Nightlife

Pick up the pace with the excitement of The Alley, hub of the city’s entertainment district, right across from the Montgomery Convention Center.

River Rides

Roll on down the Alabama River aboard the city’s very own riverboat, The Harriott II.

Fabulous Firsts

Montgomery was the site of the Wright Brothers’ first civilian flying school and boasted the first electric streetcar system in the country.

Hot Dog!

Take a bite of history at Chris’ Hot Dogs, a local favorite that’s been serving tasty dogs in a signature sauce since 1917.

Crooner’s Caddy

See the car in which country music superstar Hank Williams took his final ride at The Hank Williams Museum, home of the largest collection of Hank memorabilia found anywhere.

Cheesy Chow

Do your taste buds a favor and fill up on a good-n-greasy cheeseburger from Hamburger King downtown.

Park Places

Take a walk, fly a kite or just relax with a book at one of Montgomery’s multiple green spaces like Blount Cultural Park or Vaughn Road Park.

Plain Nuts

Enjoy Montgomery’s Tucker Pecans. They taste great right out of the shell but even better smothered in chocolate.

Shakespeare, Y’all

Take in a play at one of the country’s most celebrated theatres, The Alabama Shakespeare Festival.

Pass the Biscuits

Catch a Montgomery Biscuits baseball game and a flying biscuit too at historic Riverwalk Stadium.

Sweet Treats

Get a mouthful of sugary goodness at Louisa’s Bakery tucked away in Old Cloverdale and indulge in a peanut butter cupcake.

Otter Nonsense

Go wild at The Montgomery Zoo, with hundreds of animal species. Don’t miss the tigers, the elephants or the playful otters.

World-Class Entertainment

The capital city continually draws big-name performers and shows with major star appeal, including musicians like Elton John.

THINGS WE LOVE


Taste

OF MONTGOMERY

CentralA sophisticated yet laid-back feeling permeates this downtown restaurant that’s in an old 1890’s grocery warehouse. Central’s menu is focused on fresh, regional products like produce, meats and Gulf seafood. Order the eatery’s signature dish, the Braised Duck Wontons. Tender, flavorful duck is tucked into crispy wontons and accented with a barbecue sauce made with Alabama peaches and Back Forty Beer Company’s Truckstop Honey Ale. These little pockets of heaven are served over fresh, crunchy slaw. D

SPOTLIGHT

Garrett’sJust minutes from The Shoppes at EastChase, Garrett’s restaurant delights diners with a menu that’s a mix of French, Creole and Asian flavors, and every dish is prepared with the best ingredients. Savor the delicious dishes offered by this fine dining establishment in an elegant environment with stellar service. But the real magic happens in the kitchen. Chef and owner Gary Garner showcases his culinary artistry with Garrett’s signature dish, Grilled Prawns with Yukon Gold Potatoes and Bordelaise Sauce. 334-396-9950 • garrettsartoffood.com

River Ridge SteakhouseRiver Ridge Steakhouse is one of the only locally owned casual dining steakhouses in the River Region and features hand-cut premium Black Angus beef with locally sourced seafood and vegetables as well as house-made sides, sauces, dressings and desserts in a family friendly atmosphere. Great steaks are the stars of this restaurant, but entrees like Watermelon Ribs and Sweet Tea Fried Chicken separate it from your average steak house. The signature dish, Blackened Catfish on fried Gouda grit cake with spicy tomato gravy and collards, has become a favorite among locals. 334-567-8402


Montgomery CaféConveniently located inside Embassy Suites, right next to the Visitor Center downtown, Montgomery Café specializes in American and Southern cuisine all served with a nice dollop of Southern hospitality. Its signature dish, Wild Apple Planked Salmon, is a good example of the delicious mix of flavors on the menu. Fresh salmon is rubbed with extra virgin olive oil, “Old Bay” seasoning, cilantro and tart lemon and then grilled on an apple wood plank from Maine. D

334-269-5055 • embassysuitesmontgomery.com

TRUEIn Old Cloverdale, TRUE is where two-time James Beard Award semi-finalist chef Wesley True shines. At TRUE, you’ll find exceptional service and adventurous dining in an inviting neighborhood setting. The menu is focused on locally sourced ingredients and full flavors, as exemplified in the signature dish, the Crawfish Beignets. Lunch is offered Tuesday through Friday, while a seasonal dinner menu mixes classic favorites with nightly specials. Sunday brunch is a relaxed three course meal. 334-356-3814 • truemontgomery.com

The ExchangeWith world-class wines, beer and cocktails all served up in a swanky atmosphere that includes a covered patio complete with live entertainment nightly, The Exchange at the Renaissance Montgomery Hotel & Spa could stop right there and still be a great place to kick back and hang out. But wait… there’s more. They also offer a tasty menu to complement the bar with items like house-breaded Pecan Chicken Fingers with honey mustard, and the signature dish, Maryland Crab Cake Sliders, which are mini crab cakes served on snowflake rolls with Old Bay tartar sauce. D

334-481-5165 • houserestaurantmontgomery.com

The HouseTucked inside the The Renaissance Hotel downtown, The House is a sophisticated fine-dining experience with a diverse menu of creative dishes like the signature dish, Scallops and Oxtails. The House’s take on “surf and turf” pairs rich beef oxtails that have been slow braised in reduced veal stock until tender and fresh, buttery pan-seared scallops. The oxtails are served in a hardy veal glaze with carrots and leeks, while the caramelized scallops sitting on top of the oxtail provide a salty sweetness that makes this dish a must-try. D

334-481-5166 • houserestaurantmontgomery.com

Sa Za Serious Italian FoodSa Za is a feast for the senses. Taste authentic Italian masterpieces like Eggs in Purgatory, Stuffed Anaheim Hot Peppers as well as both traditional and specialty pizzas. Join the crowd and try Sa Za’s angel hair pasta with Maine lobster meat, chopped shrimp and spinach in a chardonnay, exploded garlic and olive oil sauce. Or opt for their signature dish, Grandma’s Eggplant, which features thin slices of eggplant layered with San Marzano tomatoes, fresh mint and grated Pecorino cheese. D

334-495-7292 • sazapizza.com

WasabiDowntown in the Alley, Wasabi offers exceptional Japanese cuisine, including sushi that looks as good as it tastes. The signature dish is the 007 Roll, a deep-fried roll filled with spicy tuna and cool avocado. Try it with the Sushi & Sashimi combo, which includes the chef’s choice of four pieces of sushi, nine piece of sashimi and one California roll. You can also enjoy private dining or take advantage of catering services at Wasabi D

334-517-1555 • wasabimontgomery.com


KabukiThis Japanese Steakhouse features the popular hibachi grill tableside where Far Eastern favorites like fried rice and chicken teriyaki are expertly and entertainingly prepared. It also offers a full-service sushi bar, and its signature dish is the Donkinkon Roll, a tasty combo of crispy fried soft shell crab and avocado inside with tuna, eel and more avocado on top. The Chef’s Special Sauce is the finishing touch. You can also enjoy private dining or take advantage of catering services at Kabuki. 334-273-8885 • kabukimontgomery.com

Sinclair’sThis neighborhood favorite’s moderately priced menu offers soups, crisp salads, heaping helpings of pasta, juicy steaks and more, but the signature dish at Sinclair’s is the Bleu Cajun Filet, a tender, juicy filet mignon, cooked to order and seared with Cajun seasonings and finished in the oven to melt the bleu cheese crumbles on top. It comes with a choice of two sides. Enjoy this delight at one of two Sinclair’s locations in the city: in the heart of Old Cloverdale or in East Montgomery on Vaughn Road.334-271-7654 • sinclairsrestaurants.com


DreamlandEnd your quest for the perfect ‘cue at Dreamland BBQ downtown, famous for its succulent ribs and delicious sauce. Feel free to ”pig out” on some pork, but save a little room for dessert since Dreamland’s signature dish is its Banana Pudding, made fresh daily with all the right stuff—vanilla wafers, ripe bananas, fluffy whipped cream and creamy pudding—plus a secret ingredient that puts it over the top. Dreamland also offers the largest draft beer selection in central Alabama and has outside dining. D

334-273-7427 • dreamlandbbq.com

The Tipping PointLocated in Hampstead in East Montgomery, The Tipping Point has something for everyone. This casual restaurant, coffee shop and bar has a playful and affordable menu inspired by some of America’s coolest cities. It also offers Intelligentsia coffee and teas and a great selection of specialty beers and wines-by-the-glass, plus weekly live music and events. Order The Tipping Point’s signature dish, the Chicago Dog, an all-beef dog loaded with American cheese, kraut, peppers and mustard.334-260-9110 • tippingpointhampstead.com

Martha’s PlaceGet a plate full of Southern comfort food classics at Martha’s Place, a meat-and-three eatery that specializes in home cooking. Try the signature dish, Martha’s fried chicken. Its light, flaky crust is seasoned only with salt and pepper, making it simple and simply perfect. Try some of her famous collards and black-eyed peas on the side. And don’t forget the hot cornbread. 334-356-7165 • marthasplacebuffet.com

Irish Bred PubYou too can experience the “the luck of the Irish” no matter your family origins at the Irish Bred Pub downtown. In a cozy, old-world atmosphere reminiscent of the Emerald Isle’s classic pubs, enjoy the signature dish Shrimp n Grits featuring a dozen succulent gulf shrimp sautéed in a pancetta and garlic beurre blanc sauce and piled atop creamy stone-ground grits. At lunch, Irish Bred Pub offers a Southern-style “meat-n-three,” but the full menu has traditional Irish favorites like crab boxty, fish and chips and shepherd’s pie. D

Wintzell’sThis seafood restaurant has been serving up fresh Gulf Seafood for over 75 years. Its Montgomery location is keeping the legacy alive with a menu offering oysters prepared just about any way you can imagine.

Chris’ Hot DogsFor a bite of Montgom ery and a mouthful of history, grab a few napkins and get your hands around a hot dog from Chris’ Hot Dogs on Dex ter Avenue. This legendary diner marked by the green-and-white-striped awning opened on May 1, 1917. It’s now being run by the second and third generations of its founding family. You can get a ham burger here, but the signature dish is a Hot Dog “All the Way,” a dog drenched in Chris’ secret sauce, sautéed onions and kraut. D

334-265-6850 • chrishotdogs.com

Chick-Fil-AAll white meat chicken coated in a crispy crust, a buttered bun and two tangy pickle slices equal the famous Chick-Fil-A chicken sandwich, the restaurant’s signature dish. The ingredient list is basic, but the taste is not; that’s why it’s been a favorite for decades. Add a side of waffle fries and some ice-cold sweet-tart lemonade, and you’ve got a pretty perfect meal. Milkshakes (in seasonal flavors), wraps, salads, amazing chicken soup and the new spicy chicken sandwich mean there’s plenty more to choose from too, but the No. 1 seller is still the original chicken sandwich. D

334-293-4773 • chick-fil-a.com


CucosMexican favorites served in a festive atmosphere are the hallmarks of a meal at Cuco’s. You can’t go wrong with the restaurant’s famous chimichangas or its signature dish, sizzling fajitas. Tender grilled chicken, steak, pork or shrimp is served with colorful bell peppers and onions all on a hot skillet. Refried beans, crisp lettuce and tomatoes, as well as cheese, sour cream and guacamole come with the dish. Wrap the meat, veggies and accompaniments in a warm flour tortilla and enjoy!334-271-3528 • cucosmexicancafe.com

MugshotsIf you’re craving a burger so good it’s won multiple awards, then head over to the Mugshots Grill & Bar. Start things off with an order of tangy fried pickles. Then get ready for the main attraction, Mugshots’ signature dish: The Come-Back Burger, has seasoned beef patty rocked with A-1 Steak Sauce, bacon, cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato and the joint’s tangy homemade “come-back” sauce, served on a toasted bun with beer-battered fries.334-277-1682 • mugshotsgrillandbar.com

SPOTLIGHT


International flavor, meet your Southern cousin. Montgomery’s food scene is diverse and delicious with distinctly

Southern highlights. Some restaurants even use ingredients sourced from local farms and gardens. Hard core foodies, comfort food connoisseurs and everyone in between will celebrate with a spectacular array of choices. Montgomery is a place where everyone brings something to the table, from trusted old favorites to exciting new ventures. May we take your order?

Executive Chef, Leonardo Maurelli III

Chef Leo Maurelli, named the Alabama Chef of the Year in 2011, is at the helm in the kitchen at Central in downtown Montgomery, and he routinely whips up dishes full of fresh ingredients procured from local producers, including Gulf seafood and just-picked veggies and herbs from the E.A.T. South. His Duck Wontons got him to the finals in a national food competition, and his steak frites with local herb chimichurri is a must-try. Maurelli’s menu changes seasonally, in keeping with his farm-to-fork philosophy, so you’re always guaranteed a great meal.

Enjoy Montgomery’s mild climate by exploring the city’s varied nightlife on foot. Two walk-able districts make it easy and fun to pop in and out of several spots without putting down your drink.

Downtown

The Downtown Entertainment District stretches from the Riverfront to Irish Bred Pub at the corner of Dexter Avenue and Perry Street.

Cloverdale

Cloverdale offers two exciting Entertainment Districts. One encompasses several blocks on Fairview Ave from 1048 Jazz & Blues to El Rey and everything in between. The other, on Cloverdale Road, includes TRUE, Derks Filet & Vine, Pine Bar and Chophouse.

WE THINK MONTGOMERY IS A GREAT PLACE TO VISIT, BUT DON’T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT.

“A visit to the The Civil Rights Memorial in Montgom-ery is a stirring experience.” -Southeastern Group Tour magazine

“[In Montgomery] Tourists can stand and look out from the pulpit where Dr. King once preached, and they can visit the basement ...

where movement leaders hatched plans for the year-long Montgomery Bus Boycott.” -The Wall Street Journal

“With the addition of restaurants and nightlife near the Riverwalk Stadium, Montgomery is livelier than ever.” -Southern Living magazine

“The city [Montgomery] is the civil rights movement’s ground zero.” -USA Today

“Montgomery doesn’t try to hide its past. Memori-

als, tourist sites and a narrated trolley ride tell the stories.”-Atlanta Journal Constitution

Don’t Forget FidoThe capital city isn’t just cool for people, it’s cool with canines too. Check out these pet-friendly places that are happy to accommodate your four-legged friend.

EAT: TRUE and Midtown Pizza Kitchen have outdoor seating where dogs are welcome. The Tipping Point in Hampstead neighborhood takes it a step farther, offering dog bones and water bowls for pets on its expansive deck and even Frisbees for playing in the nearby park.

STAY: Look for the “pets allowed” designation on the Accommodations chart to find pet-friendly hotels.

PLAY: The Hannah Daye Ridling Bark Park is a 5-acre area just for pooch playtime with special designated areas for both large and small dogs. There are also two pavilions, benches, a wash pad for each side and a walking trail. Located at the Blount Cultural Park, it’s a great spot to relax while your dog burns off some energy.

TREAT: Stop in Louisa’s Bakery in Old Cloverdale and grab some fresh-baked, homemade doggie cookies made with only the best ingredients.

Montgomery is one of the safest cities in the state, and it’s getting safer all the time.

Safety is Montgomery’s top priority, with the capital city registering its lowest crime rates in more than 20 years last year. In 2012,

overall crime and violent crime were both down in Montgomery, following record-breaking reductions in crime during 2011, 2010

and 2009.

Thanks to Montgomery Fire/Rescue’s exceptional fire services, the capital city boasts an Insurance Services rating of “2.” Of Alabama’s four largest cities, Montgomery is the only

city to earn a rating this high.

Questions about Montgomery’s Public Safety Services? Dial the city’s call center at 311 or 334-240-INFO.

In case of emergency, always dial 911.


IN THE MIDDLE OF ALABAMA, THIS DIVERSE AREA IS A DYNAMIC CENTERPIECE OF THE STATE.

As its name implies, the Montgomery River Region is an area full of rivers. Some are lazy, others fast flowing, but this confluence of water in Central Alabama has formed a section of the state that is known for many things. Encompassing everything from the natural beauty and rustic feel of rural landscapes and agricultural industries to high-tech manufacturing facilities, the seat of state government and a major Air Force base, the River Region is composed of several distinct communities, all boasting rich histories and exciting futures on the horizon.

The River Region’s communities include: Montgomery, Prattville, Millbrook, the Town of Pike Road, Wetumpka, Tuskegee and Tallassee. The region is growing quickly and is currently home to over 366,000 people. Discover the abundant opportunities that make them great places to live, work or visit.

The River Region got its name thanks to two major rivers, The Coosa and The Tallapoosa, joining to form The Alabama River just north of the capital city. The Alabama River runs alongside downtown Montgomery and continues south where it forms the Mobile and Tenasaw rivers, which finally empty into Mobile Bay.

Connected & Community-Focused

Starting where Montgomery’s eastern side ends, the Town of Pike Road is a perfect snapshot of small-town life, offering pastoral scenery and a more leisurely pace that feels a whole world away, yet is only minutes from all that the capital city offers. This combination gives the town a personality all its own, and residents invite everyone to come see what makes it special.

The Town of Pike Road is somewhat new; it was incorporated as a municipality in 1997. But a thriving community has flourished in the area for over 175 years. The old and the new are inextricably intertwined in the Town of Pike Road. Today, the area is growing again, drawing new families, those looking for both the peaceful appeal of days gone by and the excitement of a reinvigorated town with fresh ideas.

Our motto is ‘Welcome Home,’ these words exemplify the spirit of this town and the feeling we try to convey to everyone who comes here to visit or stay.

Gordon Stone, Mayon, The Town of Pike Road

The Town’s sprawling meadows and woodland glens are dotted with over 35 unique neighborhoods, each with its own personality and including some of the region’s oldest settlements. The population of approximately 5,400 residents is diverse, with citizens across the demographic spectrum calling the Town of Pike Road home.

A Proud Heritage

In 1815, the arrival of three families — the Marks, Mathews and the Meriwethers —marked the beginning of the Pike Road community. They took to the area’s fertile land and began farming and were joined by other families who did the same. Soon, a small but booming town sprouted up at the intersection of the highly traveled Pike and Meriwether Roads.

A Prosperous Present

Its ability to attract such a variety of people is proof of its appeal, and perhaps the town’s biggest asset is its commitment to preserving the past while planning wisely for the future. Small family farms and equestrian facilities maintain the town’s ties to its agricultural roots, as new businesses and new neighborhoods come to the area, creating a harmonious mix of yesterday and today.

THE TOWN OF PIKE ROAD GOOD NEIGHBORS A QUINTESSENTIAL ALABAMA “HOMETOWN,” THE TOWN OF PIKE ROAD WELCOMES ALL TO EXPERIENCE ITS WELL-BLENDED MIX OF OLD AND NEW.

COMMUNITY


A PROMISING FUTURE

Since its incorporation, the Town of Pike Road has come full circle and is at a new crossroads — near the intersection of Pike Road and Vaughn Road, which is the location of the new Town Hall facility. To ensure continued prosperity, the Town of Pike Road allows citizen input to determine its direction and drive it there. One major priority is now being realized. In December 2010, the town established a public school system, with the first school set to open in 2015. The town recently completed the first phase of its Natural Trail System that highlights the beauty of its rural landscape and connects neighbors, family and friends. Phase I is a four-mile stretch of multi-use trails for walking, running and biking. When complete, the system will have over 30 miles of trails and form a loop around the town.

The original Pike Road community, and then the Town of Pike Road, took its name from one of two major thoroughfares in the area, Pike Road. The road got its name from the toll or “pike” that travelers had to pay to use it.

Civil War

As a major manufacturer of military resources and munitions for the Confederate cause, Selma was at the center of some of the Civil War’s most contested struggles. Evidence of the role the city played in the Civil War can still be seen and felt today at several historic sites.

The Old Depot Museum offers visitors a tour through the colorful past of Selma, with a particular focus on Selma’s place in the Civil War. A cameo of Elodie Todd Dawson, Abraham Lincoln’s sister-in-law and a rabid confederate, offers a poignant reminder that the Civil War split many families asunder. Confederate bills, many printed in Selma, recall “the lost cause” in all its frailty. Selma’s crucial role as one of the South’s largest munitions producers is highlighted with exhibits of shells and cannon balls that visitors can both see and touch.

As a sister museum to Selma’s National Voting Rights Museum, the Slavery and Civil War Museum’s permanent and temporary

exhibits invite you to explore and reflect upon one of the most controversial and compelling periods of our country’s history. This museum offers, by appointment only, an educational perspective of the Civil War and slavery with provocative, yet balanced, displays, many of which are interactive.

Serving as a Confederate Hospital, the Vaughan-Smitherman Museum was spared by Federal General J.H. Wilson when his troops ravished Selma in early April 1865. It is now home to the Art Lewis Collection of Documents and includes a pardon signed by President Abraham Lincoln just four days before his assassination.

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Old Live Oak Cemetery tells multiple stories through its headstones and monuments, many of which mark the final resting place of Civil War soldiers. The Confederate Monument is in the cemetery’s Memorial Circle and honors fallen Confederate soldiers, including the 155 who were moved from other cemeteries to Old Live Oak. Many other prominent Selmians are interred at this beautiful spot as well.

Civil Rights

After decades of oppression, it took years of peaceful protest in the face of violent opposition to finally achieve voting rights for African Americans. Much of the Civil Rights struggle took place in and around Selma, including one of its seminal moments, the Selma to Montgomery March. In 1965, hundreds of voting rights advocates, both black and white, set off on foot to Montgomery and the Capitol Building to take their grievances to Governor George Wallace’s doorstep.

On March 7, 1965, 600 people marched toward Montgomery. After just six blocks, when they crossed the now infamous Edmund Pettus Bridge over the Alabama River, mounted deputies and state troopers dispatched by Governor Wallace attacked the group with nightsticks and tear gas, injuring dozens. The event came to be known as “Bloody Sunday.”

The violence stopped the marchers’ first attempt, but they would not be stopped for good. Two weeks later, under the protection of Alabama National Guardsmen and Army troops, a court-ordered limit of 300 marchers led by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. set off again from Selma and marched along U.S. Hwy. 80 to the steps of the State Capitol. Soon after, President Lyndon Johnson signed the 1965 Voting Rights Act on August 6.

In Selma, walk in the footsteps of the brave men and women who fought for equal rights by visiting historic sites including the Selma-to-Montgomery National Historic Trail, the Selma Interpretive Center, the Edmund Pettus Bridge and the National Voting Rights Museum.

Architecture

Much can be learned about the character and heritage of a place simply by looking at its architecture. This is certainly true in Selma; it is one of the few towns in the United States with so much impressive architectural variety in such a small area. Many of the over 1,200 historic structures you can observe boast architectural significance that go far beyond the stories of the families who lived in them. Indeed, the city’s homes, buildings, churches and other structures reveal its rich past in every arch, window, column and deep porch.

Take the city’s Walking Tour to discover its multi-layered history as seen in its wide array of architectural styles.

Arts

“Art for All” could be the motto of the Selma Art Guild, a local group that runs the city’s only permanent art gallery showcasing the talents of area artists. The Guild welcomes you to see and enjoy

paintings, sculptures, drawings, photography, fiber arts and more for free, as the gallery never charges admission.

Art is also the focus of a dedicated group of volunteers using art to re-invigorate and revitalize the city and surrounding areas. Founded in 2003, ArtsRevive’s mission is to: “enhance community development in the greater historic Selma region through the development of arts, urban design and tourism while preserving the diverse cultural heritage of the region.” One of ArtsRevive’s major projects is the transformation of the old Carneal Auto building downtown into the ArtsRevive Center, a space for offices, art shows, art workshops and other community events.

Selma boasts over 1,200 historic homes and structures representing a variety of architectural styles including Italianate, Victorian, Gothic and Greek Revival, including several churches and a synagogue that played prominent roles in both the Civil War and the Civil Rights movement.

SELMA 2014 ANNUAL


A little over a century ago, man conquered the laws of gravity. In 1903, Orville and Wilbur Wright made the dream of flight a reality when their bi-plane soared above the sands in Kittyhawk, North Carolina, for 12 seconds, covering 120 feet. After many more flights going longer and farther, on March 26, 1910, the brothers established the nation’s first civilian flying school in Montgomery at Wright Field, and the first powered flight in Alabama took place. Though the Wright’s school lasted only a short time, it set the stage for exciting things to come in Montgomery, most notably the establishment of Maxwell Air Force Base at the very same place that witnessed the state’s first flight.In the early 1930s, the Army Air Corps Tactical School moved to Maxwell Field, and Montgomery became the country’s intellectual center for airpower education. Now, Air University at Maxwell-Gunter Air Force Base continues to educate tomorrow’s planners and leaders in air, space and cyberspace power for the Air Force, as well as other branches of the U.S. armed forces, federal government civilians and international organizations. Ever since Maxwell-Gunter AFB located to the capital city, a beneficial relationship has flourished, a true partnership that benefits those stationed at the base as well as Montgomery and River Region residents.Base personnel contribute to the local economy simply by being here — Maxwell-Gunter AFB has an estimated annual economic impact of approximately $1.5 billion on the River Region, and that number is growing. Most of them go a step further though,

donating their time and talents to give back to the community. Airmen stationed at the base routinely volunteer to staff local events, assist local charities, plant trees, tutor area students, hold and participate in blood drives, food drives, park and public school clean-up efforts and more. Also thanks to the presence of the base, Montgomery has grown to become a hub of military aviation advancements and information technology.Montgomery is happy to have the base and everyone associated with it here and shows its appreciation in various ways including the work of The Wright Flyers, an organization of The Montgomery Area Chamber of Commerce dedicated to furthering the spirit of cooperation and support.Today, the relationship between Montgomery and Maxwell-Gunter AFB continues to grow and strengthen, benefitting both.
