Family-friendly attractions include picnic areas and hot rod displays at Henderson Park, and servicemen will also have a chance to see the U.S. Navy's West Coast Super Hornet Demo Team take to the skies in F/A-18s for aerial demonstrations.

Hotels like the Fairfield Inn are 12 miles away from the airport in nearby West Canton and also offer deals for servicemen, with pre-discount rates of no more than $99 per night including amenities like family rooms for those traveling with loved ones.
