Helicopter flights will take place on the corner of Main Street and Park Avenue next to Prescott Valley’s Entertainment District. The Rotors To Remember fund raising goal is $10,000.
A $50 (minimum) donation to the Prescott Firefighter’s Charities will earn individuals a 10 minute helicopter ride around the Yavapai Fair and the Prescott Valley area. This is a great opportunity to see the world from a different point of view while also supporting our Firefighters. 100% of ALL funds go directly to the Prescott Firefighter’s Charities (www.prescottffcharities.org). Guidance Aviation is donating all aircraft time, fuel, pilots, and ground crew for this fund raising event.
“We could not have done this without our partner, Tim’s Toyota Center. They have graciously provided us an operations area and all the support necessary to conduct these flights,” remarked Dave Roy, Director of Flight Operations, Guidance Aviation.
