Chapter Camping Now Available for AirVenture 2017

January 2017 - Returning for AirVenture 2017, chapters have an affordable opportunity to establish a “beachhead” at which to base their activities. Rather than paying by the day, a campsite is staked out until the convention ends. Chapters are able to purchase up to six campsites in advance at a flat rate in order to establish a chapter base of operations. Since the campsites will be staked out in advance, each chapter can direct its members to camp in the vicinity of this area.

The following guidelines apply to this special opportunity:

1. Chapters can secure up to six campsites for a special flat rate of $243 per site. Additional sites may be acquired under the usual camping rules and pricing.
2. At least one camper per individual camping site credential must be a current chapter member and a current EAA member through the end of AirVenture Oshkosh. A list of EAA members to attend with the chapter (who must be current through the end of AirVenture Oshkosh) will be provided in writing to the camper registration staff with the chapter camping request form.
3. Offer excludes improved sites (water and electric) and sites in Paul’s Woods, 101 Woods, handicap, and generator areas.
4. EAA staff will stake out these campsites for the chapter.
5. Chapter campsites will be staked out in the order requests are received, beginning July 14, 2017.
6. No refunds due to early departure are allowed for these campsites.

8. If requested and available, EAA will provide two picnic tables for the site.
