Activity Locations

Camp activities take place within classrooms, simulator labs, exhibit spaces and outside areas at and around the Hiller Aviation Museum. Please ensure that children are ready for both indoor and outdoor activities each day.

Grouping by Age

Within each camp topic, Campers will be divided by age into teams of 15-20 children each working with two adult staff members. Hands-on projects and flight simulation scenarios may vary by grade level. Please indicate any grouping requests on the registration form.

Instruction

Each Aviation Camp team is supervised by two adult staff members per group. Aviation Camp staff are aviation education professionals who complete pre-camp training sessions, LiveScan fingerprint checks, and California mandatory reporter training. Additional museum staff members and volunteers work with campers as necessary to ensure an exceptional camp experience.

Food

All campers should bring a lunch and snacks for morning and afternoon breaks. Snack and lunch breaks are supervised time, with opportunities for outdoor play and a variety of short, structured activities provided during break periods.

Extended Care – Afternoon

The camp day ends at 3:45. Campers should be picked up by 4:15 PM. Optional PM extended care may be added to the camp registration for an additional fee. PM care end time and prices vary by week.

At 4:15 PM, any campers that are not enrolled in PM care but have not been picked up will join extended care and the parent will be billed $15 for the daily PM care drop in rate.

1-Day Camps do not offer PM Care.

Late Pickup Fee

All campers must be picked up by the end of PM care. The late pickup fee for campers onsite after PM care is over is $15 for every 15 minutes or fraction of until they are picked up.
