The Drive to 1.25!
There is another major milestone on the horizon for the Young Eagles program -- Young Eagle 1.25 million!  That's right, one and a quarter million Young Eagles!  With your help, we will reach that milestone BEFORE EAA AirVenture 2006 giving us a chance to join together in a celebration at Oshkosh. Reaching that mark before AirVenture is possible, but will require a little extra effort from all of us. To help motivate you and your fellow volunteers to fly a few extra Young Eagles this spring, we will have an opportunity for participating pilots and ground crews to be recognized in the next few months. Those who participate in the program will have a chance to win some valuable prizes. In addition, the pilot who flies Young Eagle 1.25 million will receive a VIP trip to AirVenture— including hotel accommodations --- a flight in the B-17 and more. 

IYED June 10
June 10 is International Young Eagles Day.  Make sure your event is listed on the Web site by filing the Rally Notice Form.  Also check the main Volunteer page for resources to help make your event a success.  There's a flight rally planner,  certificate printing programs, a sample news release and event checklist, weather links and more.  Make sure you share your IYED stories, too!
