WASHINGTON, DC

Sponsored by Thomas Haas

On September 23-25, 2022, LightHawk volunteer pilots, conservation partners, staff and guests met at the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum, Udvar-Hazy Center for a weekend of friendship, learning and fun. After a 3-year hiatus due to Covid-19 concerns, we were able to come together and share stories of memorable flights, important projects and exciting developments on the horizon.

We would like to extend our thanks to Volunteer Pilot Thomas Haas for sponsoring this year’s Annual Meeting & Fly-In. We would also like to thank all of our speakers – especially keynote speakers Dan Ashe from the Association of Zoos & Aquariums and Zara Rutherford, the youngest woman to fly solo around the world. We learned so much from each of you and we look forward to new opportunities to collaborate in the future.

Take a moment to view some of the photos captured over the weekend and keep checking back as we’ll be adding videos from the event soon. If you were not able to attend the 2022 Annual Meeting & Fly-In, we hope you’ll join us in 2023! Look for an announcement of the location coming soon!
