Call Field Aviation Museum
Call Field was one of only 5 airbases in the state of Texas during World War I. The airbase was located on either side of present day Call Field Road in southwest Wichita Falls. Its dirt runways were located in what is now the University Park Subdivision. Call Field was closed and dismantled in the early 1920s. It laid the groundwork, however, for establishing Wichita Falls as America’s premier city for training of its military pilots and support personnel. The museum maintains a restored Curtiss JN4 "Jenny" aircraft, used to train pilots in World War I. It flies the first Saturday of the month, weather permitting.

We have also always loved great coffee and knew Wichita Falls had a need for another drive-thru, sit-down coffee shop. Our goal was to offer the freshest coffee in a local, warm and welcoming setting and do great things to support our city. So we decided to make our passion and dream a reality and open Frank & Joe’s Coffee House. After researching the history of the local area, Carol and Jessica quickly learned about the Kemps and the Kells. After much consideration of various possible coffee house names, they chose the name Frank & Joe’s Coffee House in honor of Franklin M. Kell and Joseph A. Kemp, two of the original entrepreneurs of the Wichita Falls area.
