?Kenosha On The Go,? the annual film extravaganza of historic, vintage
Kenosha images begins at 7:00 PM.  This event features ?Kenosha, the Gateway
City,? a 1942 color film set to music.  This depicts Kenosha in the early
days of World War II with images that include downtown and uptown Kenosha,
war-effort manufacturing, recreation, sports, entertainment and local
businesses.  Many of the images are buildings / places that have vanished
over the decades.

Also, to commemorate the 70th Anniversary of the Kenosha CYO Band, there
will be a repeat showing of the 1989 film ?We Marched in Kelly Green,?
produced for the band?s 50th Anniversary event 20-years ago.  The ?KYF In
Action? shows the KYF, now the YMCA, in a rare color film for 1942, that
includes a visit from Father Flannigan of Boy Town.  The films have never
been shown at the same time anywhere.  Surprise events will be included.

The Kenosha Streetcar Society is a non-profit organization celebrating its
9th year.  Admission is free, however, donations toward our 10th Anniversary
celebration featuring many public events will be welcome.

Everyone is welcome to come for an enjoyable evening of relaxation and
reminiscing.
