Ray Aviation Scholarship Corn Roast at AirVenture 2023

May 2023 – All EAA Ray Aviation scholars and scholarship coordinators are invited to attend a corn roast at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2023. This event will take place on Monday, July 24, 2023 at 5:00 to 6:30 PM CDT at the EAA Chapters Pavilion. This event is open to all scholars, including alumni and those currently in flight training. Each scholar may bring up to two guests of their choice. Each scholarship coordinator may bring one guest of their choice.

This is an excellent opportunity for Ray Aviation scholars to meet each other and network, and for scholarship coordinators to meet each other and learn from each chapter’s experiences. EAA staff members and the directors of the Ray Foundation will also be in attendance to thank the scholars and coordinators for their accomplishments and dedication.

This event will be held at the EAA Chapters Pavilion, located at the intersection of Schaick Ave and Deischer Lane in Camp Scholler. The corn roast will also include hamburgers, hot dogs, and other food and beverages.
