MAY

May started off great! Hard runway..Opening weekend, melt in your mouth steak BBQ! It's almost warm enough for camping and then tent city will be open! Come for the weekend.

APRIL

Last month of the $99 special!

MARCH

Lots of snow, quite a few students. Hurry up spring!

FEBRUARY

It snowed and snowed...Have I told you it snowed?

JANUARY

Well, I guess it's no secret, but over the holidays, there was ALOT of snow! We're hoping the weather and runway is ready for the 13th and the first loads of the new millenium!

Last part of 2000

 

November 2000 is turning out to be quite a remarkable month.

November has always been the beginning of our half price rates because typically no one gets to jump the same day due to shorter days and winter weather. However, because of the nice weather, we have had record number of people in the classes and some even got to jump.

OCTOBER

Well, it turns out the last 2 weekends in October weren't so bad...In fact it was so nice on one of them that we did 32 loads both days!

October...hmmm what can we say about October? How about foggy and overcast? So far, there hasn't been a whole lot of jumping going on. We hope that the last two weekends prove to be better!

SEPTEMBER

Rowdy Students of the Month!

CENTURY JUMPS

An excellent shot of Gary's 100th jump "bucketing" taken by Karl. This was a couple of years back.
Each DropZone has their own way of making their "100 jump wonders" feel special. Did you know, less than half of 1% of all people who take the 1st jump course ever decide to make it to freefall, let alone 100 jumps. That's what makes them such a wonder! We let them land and take off their gear, then everyone joins in to "bucket" them. The next century jumps aren't so wet and messy. Mostly just hugs and handshakes...
