Great news!

Due to the overwhelming popularity of our 2026 Future Aviators Summer Camp, both our July and August camps filled up very quickly. We are excited to announce that New Garden Flying Field will be expanding capacity by an additional 30 campers in July and 30 campers in August!

Those currently on the waiting list will be contacted first and given priority registration. Once those families have been notified, our online registration portal will reopen for any remaining available spots.

We are thrilled by the incredible interest in aviation from so many young people and look forward to another exciting summer of learning, flying, and fun at New Garden Flying Field.

Thank you for your continued support of the Future Aviators Program—we can't wait to welcome our newest future pilots this summer at N57!

The closures are expected to be each day, weather permitting, from 6:00AM to 6:00PM on Monday, June 15th through Thursday, June 18th. There are two different pipes that we will be replacing and while we hope to get each done in a day, we have allowed for two to be on the safe side.

Please seek alternate routes of travel during the closure and allow extra time to get to your destination.
