Forgotten Soldiers of Boynton Beach, a nonprofit organization that sends care packages to soldiers overseas, is having a “Helicopter Career Day” to raise funds for its operations.
Palm Beach Helicopters, 2615 Lantana Road, will have the first “Helicopter Career Day” at the Palm Beach County Park Airport from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sept. 20.
The theme of the event is how the helicopter industry directly impacts infrastructure, said Lynelle Zelnar, FSO executive director.
Several segments represented include law enforcement, military, emergency medical
services, electronic news gathering, agriculture, tourism and flight training.
Zelnar said people could talk to the pilots, flight crews and take a helicopter ride.
Admission is free but donations are encouraged, Zelnar said.
