Aviation camp at Fernbank Science Center for rising 4th-6th graders
Fernbank Science Center in Decatur is now accepting applications for its 2013 sessions of Aviation Camp, a one-week summer day camp for students who will be in 4th, 5th or 6th grade next fall. Two sessions will be held, June 17-21, and June 24-28, 2013.
First-time campers learn about the principles of flight. Advanced campers with more experience will try out flight simulators and fly remote-control helicopters.
Cost of the camp is $285 per week. Full or partial scholarships, made possible by program sponsor Lockheed Martin, may be available for students who receive free or reduced-price lunch at their school.
Fernbank Science Center is owned and operated by the DeKalb County School District, but Aviation Camp is open to students from anywhere.
Deadline to apply is May 6.
