Registration opens on 8/8/25 at 6:00 a.m.
We start setting up around 8:30 for flights to begin at 9:00, conditions permitting.
Second or third flights may be available after everyone has had their turn.
Youth might ride 1 to 3 in a plane, with first-timers getting priority for front seat.
Our goal is to give each youth a front-seat flight.

here, and on the chapter's Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/EAAKRUT/) by 8:00 p.m. the night before.
