Volunteers Needed. As our chapter grows and conducts more public events, our need for volunteers is growing. Here is just a small list of areas we could use your help. If anything below interests you, email us at ChapterEAA509@gmail.com with the specific roles you want to fill.- Young Eagle Pilots - We're looking for pilots to commit to ~ 3 hours of flying per rally. We schedule 45 min time block per youth, which means you'll fly at least 4 youths in that 3 hour block. For every youth flown, our chapter gets $5 of Young Eagles "Credits" from EAA for use on a variety of items. Our chapter flew just over 96 youths last year.
- Young Eagle Rally Volunteer - We're seeking excited and energetic members to help check in youth and their families, assign youth to pilots, and then help ensure all post-flight paperwork is prepared following the Young Eagle Flight. This job doesn't need a commitment for the entire duration of a Rally, however we appreciate those that can.
