EAA
President Tom Poberezny describes Compass Hill as "a striking symbol of
EAA values." Located adjacent to Memorial Wall and Fergus Chapel
overlooking Pioneer Airport, Compass Hill symbolizes the love of flight passed
between generations. Its prominent feature at the summit is Larry Anderson's
sculpture, "Directions," which depicts a family of four on an
aviation outing.
Personally inscribed bricks honor those who have
been touched by aviation's legacy. Each year a dedication ceremony is held at
EAA AirVenture Oshkosh to acknowledge newly installed bricks. To participate in
this year's ceremony, brick orders must be made by May 15, 2008. Two placement
options are available: the plaza level at the Compass Hill entrance area; and
the summit level within the Compass Rose design. Participants also receive a
beautifully framed mini-brick replica.
