Youth Overnights
Youth Overnights are for youth groups of any kind . . . scouts, schools, church groups, JROTC, youth organizations, homeschool coops, families, or just a bunch of friends that want to have a great time!
Learn more about our aircraft, conduct a preflight inspection, test pilot skills in our flight simulators, and have fun with hands-on STEM activities. Set up camp and sleep under the wings of our rare and historic planes! Pizza dinner, snack, and a light breakfast are included.
An exclusive Youth Overnight buy-out requires a minimum of 45 people and can accommodate a maximum of 100 people.
