Pekin, IL — Lincolnland Model Air Show Team (summer camp)

Brandy Gaul's eyes glistened as her tiny hand shaded her eyes while she watched a model airplane overhead making loops in the sky. Brandy, 8, of Pekin, Illinois, was one of 174 youngsters to watch a radio-controlled demonstration in Dirksen Park, courtesy of the Lincolnland Model Air Show Team.

The 11-week summer camp is for 5- to 13-year-olds. For aviation week the campers made kites, parachutes, and model airplanes, and listened to a presentation about the Apollo 13 mission.

Pekin Mayor Dave Tebben, a member of the Lincolnland Model Air Show Team, started flying when he was 11 years old. He says flying relaxes him, and he really enjoys the time at the field.
