From Coldwell Banker Coast Real Estate 5101 Colter Street PHOTOS BY MARK BRENNAN/SIUSLAW NEWS O regon Coast Military Museum (OCMM) hosted a “Jeep Show and Shine” on June 17 at Johnston’s Motors on Highway 101. OCMM Executive Director Cal Applebee said the important place the Jeep holds in military history was the reason for the show. Dozens of Jeeps from several eras were on display at the event. “It was a mission-specific event for OCMM: to celebrate the birth of the Jeep in World War II, and the iconic vehicle it has become today,” Applebee said. “I got a lot of positive com- ments that day, and Johnston Motors was very pleased with the event. We are already committed to holding it again.” Visit OCMM at 2145 Kingwood St. in Florence or go online to www.oregoncoastmilitarymuseum.com.

Rather than having to travel with a group as was required under the decades-long embar- go against Cuba, individuals could travel to the Communist country as long as the purpose of the visit fell within a certain $9 | $8 Senior/Student/Military | $7.50 Matinees Before 2 | $7 Child | $6.50 Members | Performing Arts: $19/$15/$10 JUNE 23 - 29 FRI 23 SAT 24 SUN 25 MON 26 R 113 MIN - “A thrilling and original cinematic joyride that pays homage to heist masterpieces while creating a legacy of its own.” Screen Crush Owen Wilson & Friends are back. “The best film in the Cars series and the first to feel worthy of the Pixar label.” IGN WED 28 7:45 PM 12:40 PM 3:20 PM 6:30 PM 9:35 PM BABY DRIVER – Kevin Spacey, Jamie Foxx CARS 3 - G 109 MIN - FINAL WEEK TUE 27 12:30 PM 3:35 PM 6:10 PM 9:25 PM 12:30 PM 3:35 PM 6:10 PM 9:25 PM 12:30 PM 3:35 PM 6:10 PM 8:35 PM 12:30 PM 3:35 PM 6:10 PM 9:25 PM 12:30 PM 3:35 PM 6:10 PM 9:25 PM THU 29 12:40 PM 3:20 PM 6:00 PM 9:25 PM photos, as well as talk about their unique experi- ences in Cuba — including the funeral of former dictator Fidel Castro, who passed away while they were on the island.
