Museum plans fun for flier’s birthday

Celebrate Amelia Earhart’s 116th birthday at Pacific Aviation Museum Pearl Harbor on Wednesday.

Families with at least one member dressed like Earhart will get free admission from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., while the first 40 in costume under age 18 will get goodie bags and be entered in a look-alike contest at 1 p.m. Cake and refreshments will be served throughout the day.

Visitors can enjoy the museum’s "Amelia Earhart in Hawaii" photo exhibit and meet members of the local chapter of the Ninety-Nines International Organization of Women Pilots, of which Earhart was the first president.

A shuttle to the museum will be available from the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center. Visit PacificAviationMuseum.org or call 441-1004.
