Classic Rotors Museum is located 40 miles northeast of San Diego at the Ramona Municipal Airport in Ramona, California. The museum collection has over 40 of some of the rarest rotorcraft in the world that you will not find anywhere else. The non-profit and all-volunteer organization staff are very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about their collection and rotor craft history. 
The Museum is dedicated to the preservation of rare and vintage rotorcraft. Our mission is to preserve these rotorcraft as a tribute to the pioneers who risked so much to develop vertical flight technology. A Key objective is to provide education about, and demonstrate various designs in rotor technology including., tandem, co-axial, conventional (single), sync (intermeshing) and tip powered.

Zoo & Animal Rehabilitation at Big Bear Lake , CA

Big Bear Alpine Zoo Website:  https://bigbearzoo.org The Big Bear Alpine Zoo (formally Moonridge Animal Park) opened its doors in 1959 after a devastating wildfire roared through the San Bernardino National Forest. Originally, it was not a zoo, but a safe place for injured animals to rehabilitate and get a second chance back in the wild. For some, returning to the wild was not an option as they had been imprinted by their human caretakers or were too injured to take care of themselves. The first animals in the zoo’s care were a black bear and two bobcats. In 1960, a 50 year lease was obtained and allowed the zoo to grow to be the zoological facility that it is today. The zoo is currently home to animals and birds representing over 85 species and is located in San Bernardino County, the largest County in the contiguous United States. Our primary objective is to rescue, rehabilitate and release wild animals. The Big Bear Alpine Zoo is the “go to” facility for injured and imprinted animal
