Aviation & STEM Adventures Camp Details

Explore Special Aviation & STEM Adventures at the Hiller Aviation Museum!

Every Aviation Adventures session is a unique day of aviation and STEM exploration! Campers enjoy realistic flight simulator experiences, build and fly model aircraft, and participate in a variety of hands-on activities that may include engineering challenges, creative projects, experiments, games, and aircraft exploration. With different activities offered throughout the year, students can return again and again for new adventures, discoveries, and opportunities to learn through play.

School Year – Mixed Age Grouping

Please note that, while we always strive to group campers by age, school year camps & programs tend to see more mixed age groupings. We divide all enrolled K-5 enrolled students by age evenly across the number of groups we have based on enrollment and staffing. Typically, school year camps have between one and two groups. School year sessions tend to skew towards majority lower elementary enrollment. Students remain with their same teammates and instructional staff for the entirety of the session.
