a new education and tourism initiative called the ‘Wright Route,’ a virtual and in-person experience launching this summer. The ‘Wright Route’ looks to provide a fuller picture of the brothers’ lives and work, promote collaboration and dispel myths about the rivalry between the two aviation parks.
“Our parks and organizations have been friends for many years and enjoy working together to tell the inspiring stories of how aviation changed our world. This initiative invites visitors to explore both parks and experience the Wright brothers’ journey to the Outer Banks in a new way,” says Jessica Barnes Green, Director of Outer Banks Forever, the official nonprofit partner of Wright Brothers National Memorial.
