Hello everyone,
To celebrate the 122nd Anniversary of the First Flight, which the Wright Brothers achieved on December 17th, 1903, we are planning a week-long activity to visit various sites along the Aviation Trail. The list of sites we plan to attend is below, as well as in the attached file, which contains additional information about the Aviation Trail and locations. One of the achievements of visiting each of our planned sites is a Wilbear Wright stuffed bear. This bear is part of the Aviation Trail's Wilbear Wright Program, where an individual must collect at least eight stamps from the 17 Aviation sites. While we plan to obtain all eight stamps during our event, you are free to join on any day you can or are interested in. You can then get however many remaining stamps you need at your own pace after this event. If you know which days you would like to attend, please email aiaa.daycin.stem@gmail.com so we have an idea of the number of people to expect on each day. If you have any issues with the times we plan to go, you can also send that, and if another time works for the majority of the people, we can change it. I hope to see you there!

Saturday (12/13): Carillon Historical Park 11:00 am - 1:00 pm
