Lauren Dalzell Settles introduced girls to the wonders of the sky last year for the first aviation and aerospace day camp; over 100 young ladies showed up. Settles is getting ready for the second day camp next month. 

The Owensboro-Daviess County Regional Airport will host the day camp again on Saturday, September 8th from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. The event consists of education, tours, and resources for girls interested in an aviation license or career.

The Bluegrass Chapter of the Ninety-Nines will assist with the event. The registration fee is $15 and if the registration is received by Thursday, August 23rd, the participant will receive a t-shirt. A goodie bag, crafts at the event, and pizza will be available for everyone. Registration will continue through the Friday before the event (9/7).

Volunteers are also needed. For more information, you can contact Settles at:
