The annual 4th of July Fly-In Breakfast is held at the Monmouth Airport and is sponsored by the Monmouth Flying Club. The club was formed in 1966 and attempts to generate more and more interest in aviation by helping aspiring pilots attain their first licence as well as providing ongoing training for local pilots. The purpose of this event is to promote a general interest in aviation in Monmouth as well as an influx of volunteers. An average of 1,100 breakfasts are served annually and each year there have been an average of 45 visiting aircraft. With so many guests, the flying club could always use a few extra hands. The Park Department, Fire Department, and the police and auxiliary help control traffic, set up for the event, and clean the aircraft hangers. Come learn about aviation and enjoy a delicious breakfast every 4th of July at the Monmouth Airport.
