Let your child’s curiosity take flight and explore the amazing world of airplanes! Join us on the third Saturday of the month for a plane spotting adventure. Participants will learn about the different parts of an airplane and how airports work. Then it’s off to the tarmac to spot real planes in action – watch them take off, land and soar through the skies at Centennial Airport!
