This is indoor sky diving in a wind tunnel. It was a great experience. I made a reservation so all was ready when I got there. The ages of those in my group ranged from 4 years old to 65 years old. Men and women mixed. The instructor was very knowledgeable and demonstrated how we were to "fly" when in the chamber. Each person was taken into the windowed enclosure and flew. The instructor was there also and made sure to keep one from hitting the wall and to adjust the appropriate air pressure. I wasn't sure what to expect but it was great and I can't wait to go back.

Our first trip to Carolina Horse Park was for the War Horse Eventing Series in July. It's a beautiful facility with lots of space, the event was run incredibly well. I greatly appreciated all of the measures taken by event staff to protect visitors from Covid-19, including when organizers kindly and professionally reminded us of the policy on masks. I know it can be tough to run events during these times but I was so impressed with their efforts and we can't wait to return!
