Would love to be there, but same time as AHS graduation. How much does it cost to send up the helicopter to take a picture?
I see where you're going with this. Why not just donate the money to whatever fund is going to the victim's families. Not a terrible question since I'm sure they'd prefer that over a picture.
Exactly Adam, thoughts prayers and pictures don't pay the bills. I am pretty sure people have hospital bills, funeral expenses etc. A local blood drive would help more in my opinion. Blood donations always drop off in the summer time.
Also as a county tax payer, I don't think this is an appropriate use of the helicopter.
