June – Scouts of America

Scout Aviation Day - June 7

Chesapeake Sport Pilot is a proud participant in Scouts of America and Girl Scout aviation badge/patch program. We hold this event once each spring alternating years between Scouts of America and Girl Scouts. 2025 is a Scouts of America year.

In the morning, our volunteers set up teaching stations which teach the scouts various aspects of aviation ranging from airplane aerodynamics to aviation careers. The information taught at these stations is designed to meet the requirements of the badge/patch. The program officially ends at lunch.

After lunch, the teenagers are invited to participate in Young Aviator flights. The Young Aviator pilots, most of whom are also customers at Chesapeake Sport Pilot, volunteer their time and aircraft to give the kids free flights and the experience of a lifetime. These flight are not only fun, but help reinforce knowledge learned earlier in the day at the scout program.

These programs are very labor intensive and we are always looking for dependable volunteers to pull them off. To volunteer please contact info@chesapeakesportpilot.com Scout leaders interested in participating should also contact Chesapeake Sport Pilot.
