The Pasadena Police Department’s Air Operations Team will touch down for a free Open House event June 2 to give residents a close-up look at the helicopters and to learn more about how Air Operations protects and serves the public.
The public is invited to this special Open House from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Saturday, June 2, at Benedict Heliport, 2175 Yucca Lane in Altadena. The Benedict Heliport is just off the 210 freeway, at the Arroyo/Windsor exit.
