There will be Young Eagle Flights from 9:30 a.m.-1:00 p.m. at Jabara airport. Make sure to get there early to reserve your child’s spot. This is a great opportunity to let your budding pilot go on a flight for free and learn more about what it takes to fly. Young Eagle Flights are available for kids ages 8-17 on a first come, first serve basis.

There will also be Young Builders activities available for the kids throughout the Breakfast with Santa event involving gliders and helicopters.

In case there are any changes to the event due to inclement weather or other factors, visit the EAA Chapter 88 Young Eagles Facebook page for any updates prior to attending the event.
