"Air Camp gave my daughter the experience of a lifetime! She is just beaming with confidence from her time there. I am so thankful for the knowledge she gained, the thrill of that flight and the friends she made. She will never forget this experience. Thank you all so much!"

Welcome to Air Camp!

Air Camp is a week-long summer camp adventure in aviation and aeronautics for middle school students, which takes place at the birthplace of flight – Dayton, Ohio. At Air Camp, students will experience the rich and exciting aviation and educational resources in the Dayton region, from the place where the Wright Brothers invented flight to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Home base for the week will be on the campus of the University of Dayton.

The purpose of Air Camp is to inspire students to new heights of scholarship, leadership and citizenship, as they experience the wonders of flight and study the science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) of aviation and aeronautics. It’s a week packed with fun, adventure, learning, and challenge.

  • Learn the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) of aviation and aeronautics
