YOUNG EAGLES DAY TO OFFER FREE AIRPLANE RIDES FOR AREA YOUTH

Young people interested in aviation will have an opportunity to take to the skies this weekend during Young Eagles Day at the Lawrenceville-Vincennes Airport.

The event will be held Saturday, June 13, from 8:00 a.m. until noon at the EAA Chapter 114 Club Hangar and is open to youth ages 8 through 17.

Organized by the Lawrenceville-Vincennes chapter of the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA), the annual event provides free airplane rides designed to introduce young people to the world of aviation and inspire future pilots, mechanics, engineers, and aviation professionals.

According to organizers, this year's event marks the 34th Annual International Young Eagles Day. The Young Eagles program was launched by the EAA in 1992 and has provided flight experiences to nearly 2.5 million young people around the world.

Participating youth will have the opportunity to fly with volunteer pilots and experience aviation firsthand from the cockpit of a general aviation aircraft.

The event is free of charge for eligible participants and is intended to give young people a unique introduction to flight while encouraging interest in aviation and aerospace careers.

The Lawrenceville-Vincennes Airport is located just east of Lawrenceville and serves as the home base for EAA Chapter 114.

Organizers encourage families with children between the ages of 8 and 17 to attend and take advantage of this opportunity to experience the excitement of flight at no cost.

Hot rods, coffee, and a good Saturday morning.

Cruise in, hang out, and enjoy hot rods and classics with fellow car people. No need to stress about parking perfectly or polishing every inch, this one’s all about enjoying the cars and the community. This is not an open house or car show, this is just a gathering of enthusiasts and their cars for an hour or two of caffeine and car lingo, then head to Sumner Illinois for the car show!

See you at Cars & Caffeine. Rain or shine, because we drive our cars!

June 13, 9am-11am CST
