In Partnership with Ohio History Connection
Aircraft and Artifacts: A Scavenger Hunt Experience of 1940's America

Join us at the Champaign Aviation Museum for a family-friendly and self-guided scavenger hunt to locate 10 key aircraft and artifacts that defined the American home front and war front experiences during World War II. Beginning in the Museum lobby, visitors can pick-up their aircraft map, scavenger hunt worksheet, and pen at the front desk before heading into the Museum for the hunt. Spanning three buildings that are wheelchair accessible, participants will find the required items with provided visual clues and then write the item name on their worksheet. After finishing the scavenger hunt, participants can turn-in their completed worksheets at the lobby front desk to receive a free sticker, patch, or magnet! Volunteers will be on-site to answer any questions, and disposable earplugs will be available as a portion of the experience includes the B-17 Champaign Lady restoration area. A complete listing of Ohio Open Doors participating sites and events can be found at www.ohiohistory.org/opendoors

Thursday, October 1st  at 2:00pm - 3:30pm | FREE LECTURE
Flight Paths: From WWII Stories to Restoring Sight

Experience an inspiring, multigenerational journey as told by D. James Schumer. MD, AME.  Beginning with the compelling story of his father's service as a World War II pilot, this presentation traces Dr. Schumer's own path—from growing up inspired by aviation to earning his pilot's wings and ultimately pursuing a career in ophthalmology. Along the way, discover how the values of courage, precision, perseverance, and service unite the battlefield, the cockpit, and the operating room, where restoring vision through LASIK and cataract surgery changes lives every day. This event will be held in the CAM Library.
