Mountain Post Historical Association, Inc., Artifact Exhibit at Colorado Springs Airport
Monday, May 03, 2010
The Mountain Post Historical Association, Inc (MPHA) is a community based 501©(3) established to raise funds to build the Mountain Post Historical Center (MPHC).
The MPHA is committed to bringing a unique landmark to Fort Carson and surrounding communities. The Mountain Post Historical Center (MPHC) will be located just outside Fort Carson’s main gate on Colorado Highway 115 across the street from the Cheyenne Mountain State Park. It will preserve the history from 1942 – when the Mountain Post was founded in response to World War II – to the present day and beyond. The MPHC will be an educational venue for newly assigned Soldiers, family members, other veteran and civilian visitors, a focal point for reunions, a location to promote educational programs, and a gathering place for the Post, veterans’ organization, youth and civic groups. It will be a place of Honor and the legacy for all those who have and will serve.
