Hi supporters, 

This past Sunday's NY Post had an excellent article about the problem of nonessential helicopters ruining the experience for theater-goers in "Shakespeare in the Park," and Central Park more generally. Sunday's NY1 "In the News" segment with host Rocco Vertuccio featured the story as well.

There is a video plus the print article explaining the terrible situation. For the article and video, click the link:  https://nypost.com/2021/07/17/helicopters-ruining-shakespeare-in-the-park-patrons-pols/

Please share on social media & retweet the article from our Twitter page: https://twitter.com/stopthechopnynj/status/1416492145192718342?s=21

(Here is our original tweet that received the Post's attention regarding opening night being ruined by the tourist choppers: https://twitter.com/stopthechopnynj/status/1412997496939352069?s=21 )

Also, call the local FAA office at (631) 454-2400 and/or tag them on social media to complain about the nonessential helicopters in our area.  According to this article, they don't think there is a problem!!! (We find that very difficult to believe after all the years of New Yorkers complaining, and federal bills being introduced to resolve the problem).

We need a large grassroots movement to end this problem. Please help us by volunteering, donating, and spreading awareness. Ask 10 of your friends & neighbors to sign our petition! Thanks in advance!
