The
EAA Young Eagles program was started in 1992 to give interested
young people ages 8-17 an opportunity to fly in a general aviation
airplane. The flights, which are free of charge, are made possible
through the generosity of EAA member volunteers. On Saturday from
10 a.m. to noon, children ages 8-17 are invited to come out (weather
permitting) and experience the joy of flight firsthand. Children
must be accompanied to the airport, 1351 Airport Road, by a
consenting parent or guardian, who will be required to sign up their
child in person for the flight.
