Aviation in Real Time
Paige has a passion for flying and photography. She wanted to combine her passions and share her excitement of aviation, photography, and STEM related opportunities with other young girls. The National Aviation Heritage Area (NAHA), which is based in Dayton, contacted her to photograph young girls at each of their 10 sites. Unfortunately, COVID restrictions prevented her from doing this. Paige had to wait until some of the sites opened back up so she could get photographs for NAHA. She then decided to focus on an aviation presentation for school children. She gave two presentations to 3rd grade gifted classes at Trebein Elementary School in Beavercreek. The children were very attentive and asked a lot of questions. In the end, Paige was able to submit aviation photos to NAHA and educate local youths on STEM opportunities in aviation.
