Aviation Day

(Aviation Day – CANCELLED)

Update 10/4:

Due to the projected weather with Hurricane Matthew, Aviation Day is cancelled.  We were unable to find a new day/time that worked for the majority of event partners, therefore there is not a rescheduled date at this time.  We thank everyone that helped to plan, organize, and spread the word about Aviation Day and look forward to a successful event in 2017!
