EAA Chapter 36 is composed of approximately 40 aviation enthusiasts of all ages; and we're happy to bring on new members. The members of the chapter are dedicated to three main goals:

1) Promotion of aircraft homebuilding and support of builders. We provide builders access to the vast knowledge of our technical counselors and experienced homebuilders.

2) Aeronautical education through participation in EAA's Young Eagles program. We have a handful of pilots that volunteer their time and aircraft to offer free airplane rides to kids ages 8-17. Each ride includes a "ground school" lesson on how airplanes work and some basics on aerodynamics. We seek to use aviation to spark kids' interest in STEM education.

3) Promotion of recreational aviation in general. Membership is for anyone who wants to learn more about the fun of flying and is open to pilots and non-pilots alike.
