Warbirds and Wish Lists: October 2026 in Georgetown County
In this month's episode of First Friday with Georgetown County, Airport Manager Jim Taylor discusses an ongoing visit by World War II aircraft to the Georgetown County Airport. He explains what visitors can expect from the display, how to tour the planes up close, and why these historic aircraft still draw crowds decades later.
Then Vanessa Funnie of the Bureau of Aging Services talks about this year's collection of small gifts for seniors, part of a Christmas distribution that helps make the holidays brighter for older residents across the county. She explains what items are needed, where to drop them off, and how the community can help. She also gives an overview of the Bureau's year-round programming for seniors and how residents and their families can get involved.

This month, we sit down with Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Bill Wisneski, grandson of the late Lee Parsons, ahead of his trip from California to Andrews for the August 18 premiere of a documentary pulled from the county's 1976 time capsule.
