If you have ever wondered what your neighborhood would look like from the sky or have been curious about airplanes or being a pilot, you may want to check out the Young Eagles Rally at Meriden-Markham Airport on Saturday, June 12th from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Participants will take a FREE flight and see what real pilots do. You must be accompanied by a parent or guardian and you can register at the event. If you would like to see a flyer with more details, please stop by the Career Center and look on the bulletin board marked “Programs and Events”.
