Campers gain behind-the-scenes access to aviation history and interact with real-world role models and industry professionals within a dynamic museum setting.
AeroQuest Summer Camp at the Sullenberger Aviation Museum offers an immersive, hands-on STEM experience designed to ignite a passion for aviation and exploration. Campers engage in experiments, creative projects, and gain behind-the-scenes access to aviation history. Activities are tailored by age group, allowing participants to explore the fundamentals of flight, learn aviation vocabulary, and discover the trailblazers who made flight possible. Older campers design, build, and test aircraft prototypes, experimenting with aerodynamics and problem-solving like aerospace engineers. The camp also highlights various career opportunities within the aviation industry, encouraging students to imagine their futures in the sky. Through teamwork and experimentation, campers develop problem-solving, communication skills, and confidence in a dynamic museum environment.
A typical day involves hands-on activities, interactive games, creative projects, and time exploring the museum's galleries, with a daily lunch included.
This camp is best for rising 2nd to 8th graders who are curious about flight, science, and innovation, and eager to explore the world of aviation and STEM.
