Wave to Smokey!!!

Wave to Smokey Bear as he flies along the Jersey Shore aboard a New Jersey Forest Fire Service helicopter on Sunday, Aug. 9, to celebrate his 82nd birthday.

Flying low over the ocean in one of the Forest Fire Service's Bell UH-1 Iroquois "Huey" helicopters, Smokey Bear will wave to beachgoers from Wildwood Crest to Asbury Park. A banner plane displaying a "Happy Birthday, Smokey Bear" message will lead the flight.

The flight is scheduled to start over Wildwood Crest at approximately 1:45 p.m. and travel north along the coast.

The birthday flight is made possible through a grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service. In the event of inclement weather, the flight will be rescheduled for Sunday, Aug. 16.

For nearly a century, Smokey Bear has inspired generations of Americans to help prevent wildfires with his timeless message: “Only you can prevent wildfires.”
