Activities in addition to Young Eagles Over Westerly include a Summer Pancake Breakfast, monthly meetings, aviation safety seminars, educational programs for children and an established Aviation Scholarship Program.
We have awarded Scholarships to students for the past 25 years, who are continuing their education in Aviation related fields of study, as well as Aeronautical Engineering.
Regular meetings of the Westerly Airport Association are held on the third Tuesday of each month, usually at the Westerly Airport terminal building conference room. Changes in location or time will be announced to active members and posted here on our website. Please feel free to attend. Our meetings are open to the public.
