Free helicopter rides for eligible girls & women! – no words can truly explain the joy and excitement inspired by getting airborne for the first time. This key moment is often the catalyst that is needed to awaken aeronautic vocations. The helicopter rides are sponsored by Trinity Helicopters and other local businesses in order for all girls and women to have an opportunity for first flight without financial barriers.
