One of the greatest ways we, as a publication, contribute to supporting vintage aviation is by inspiring the next generation.  And the opportunities available to inspire kids in the summer are plentiful.  Through the diligence of aviation museums and organizations, summer camps related to various aviation and STEM-centered themes exist across the country. We have put together a list of as many of those camps as we were able to find.  This is not a comprehensive list, but we hope that you might take advantage of sending the youth in your life to one of these camps.  It not only supports these museums and organizations but also ensures they remain a beacon for aviation history.  It also helps support the next generation that will maintain and preserve vintage aviation for years to come.
