Fox Stephens Field Airport

Gilmer Municipal Airport

Fox Stephens Field / Gilmer Municipal Airport, was first dedicated on October 23, 1969. This was a day in which many contributed much of their time, efforts, inspiration and encouragement so that this addition to the industrial growth of our county could be made possible. The facility has served as a tool in bringing industry to this area and we have continued to encourage its use by local industry.
