It’s just been announced that the Highlight Pro Women’s Skydiving Team will return to the New York State Fair Wednesday evening. The all-female daredevils bring a message of empowerment and achievement to Women’s Day on the grounds as they leap from a plane to soar across the sky before landing on the New York Experience grounds near the pond and the Chevy Park stage. The first parachutist will jump at about 7 p.m.
It’s a thrilling show to watch and a great photo opportunity, but have your camera ready as the athletes cut across the sky above the grounds quickly, often several divers in the air at one time. After landing, they pose for pictures and talk to audience members.
One thing’s for sure–Women’s Day has arrived in the 21st century.
