As the sun sets on another AirFest…
We love AirFest. We pour our hearts and souls into this event every year, and when it comes to an end, it’s always bittersweet. We’re tired,very tired, but incredibly grateful after another weekend spent welcoming thousands of people through our gates and sharing this special place with all of you.
AirFest truly takes a village.
To our amazing staff and volunteers who put in countless hours before, during, and after the event, thank you.
To the pilots, aircraft owners, crews, and flying organizations who travel from near and far to support us, including the Aero Club of Pennsylvania, EAA Chapter 216, and the many private aircraft owners who fly in just to be part of AirFest, thank you.
To our reenactors, historic fire truck and military vehicle owners, vendors, exhibitors, local public safety agencies, the National Guard, 621st Contingency Response Wing, and all of the organizations and individuals who bring displays, equipment, history, and experiences to our grounds, thank you.
A very special thank you to our sponsors, especially Kindle Auto Plaza, whose generosity and continued support help make an event of this size possible and allow AirFest to grow each year.
And most importantly, to every person who came through the gates this weekend, thank you for choosing to spend part of your Labor Day weekend with us. Seeing the crowds enjoying the aircraft, meeting crews, exploring displays, talking with volunteers, and making memories is what makes all the work worthwhile.
Every ticket purchased, volunteer hour, sponsorship, aircraft, vehicle, display, and visitor helps us continue our mission and makes AirFest a little bigger and better each year.
From all of us at the Naval Air Station Wildwood Aviation Museum, thank you for another unforgettable AirFest. Until next year!
