Good Morning – But What’s That Sound?

August 7, 2009Leave a Comment

It’s a bird… It’s a plane… It’s Superman…

Neither!

It’s a helicopter!

The campers today were treated to a special ride around camp; from above that is. Camp Simcha’s Aviation School is one of the top aviation schools in the country, ranking higher than Harvard, Yale and even Touro College’s flying programs. The kids watched as bunks looked like mere lego pieces from hundreds of feet above the ground, the staff members appeared as simple ants while the trees turned into tiny bushes.

Just ask Nathan from Alaska***

“That was so cool! Let’s do it again!” -Nathan from Alaska

*** = First Name and Place of Origin were altered to protect the identity of Joe from Monroe**.

** = Joe from Monroe is really someone else.

Here is an actual picture of a real helicopter:
