The Young Eagles is a program created by the Experimental Aircraft Association that provides children between the ages for eight and 17 with an opportunity to experience flight in a general aviation airplace while learning about aviation. The program is offered free of charge with costs covered by the volunteers. Since the program began in 1992, over two million Young Eagles have enjoyed a flight.

•June 22 beginning at 10 a.m.
•August 10 beginning at 5 p.m.
•September 14 beginning at 4 p.m.
