2021 was the year the STIHL National Championship Air Races returned after we all weathered some of the most challenging circumstances on record. Generous donations from our dedicated fans and supporters are a vital element of the Reno Air Racing Association’s success, and we want to give our most sincere thanks to everyone who made a gift to help us emerge from the Covid shutdown in 2020 and back into air racing in 2021! Your donations not only helped make the past year possible, but also gave us the resources and energy to begin an exciting journey as we launch our 2022 STIHL National Championship Air Races and our new “Racing for the Future” campaign.
Our vision is to establish the Reno Air Racing Association as the pinnacle of inspiration, education, and exhilaration for people of all ages. Our success with our STEM education programming has now led to our first flight training scholarships and we have even more programs coming to life in the near future. We hope you will join us as we accelerate into this new chapter in our evolution.
Air racing is our passion, and we are using the excitement, history, and pageantry of our beloved sport to inspire the next generation of aviators, fans, and stakeholders. Your contributions are an important factor in making this possible, and we’d like to extend our deepest heartfelt gratitude to those who gave this past year.
