Good Morning Everyone on the Europa List
The Camden Youth Aviation Program has recently acquired a partially completed
mono-wheel Europa kit which it will be building with with the middle and high
school students of LEAP Academy (http://www.leapacademycharter.org/).Once built
it is our hope that the young people who helped to build the aircraft would be
able to take flight lessons in the aircraft.
We are looking for volunteers in the Camden, NJ, Greater Philadelphia and
Wilmington,
DE areas who have experience building the Europa to help lead this project
and to work with our young people. We are also hoping that builders who have
completed their aircraft would consider donating their no longer needed tools
to us.
The Camden Youth Aviation Program tries to show the young people of Camden and
Southern NJ all aspects of aviation and that there is more to life than what
they see in their neighborhoods. Also by introducing them to aviation, we are
hoping to give them something to dream about and to inspire them to rise above
the limits of their environment. The program is open to all Camden and
Southern NJ youth who are interested in aviation. Participation in the Camden
Youth Aviation Program is not limited to any one group or organization, but
welcomes all young people who are interested in aviation. Additionally, the
Camden Youth Aviation Program tries to act as a resource to schools and youth
groups to make them aware of the educational aviation resources that are
available to them. The Camden Youth Aviation Program was established under the
auspices of the former Camden Police Foundation and the Diocese of Camden's
Community Relations Advisory Board. The Camden Youth Aviation Program is
incorporated as a Non-Profit Corporation in the State of NJ and is a certified
501(c)3 non-profit charity. More information about the Camden Youth Aviation
Program can be found on the Camden Youth Aviation Program Facebook page and on
our website at www.Camdenyap.org.
Please contact me if you have any questions about the post or if you are willing
to help us in any fashion to give inner city and under-served youth the Dream
of Flight.
