Saturday, July4th
On Saturday, July 4th, we will be opening our doors at 9am to start the explosive holiday. We do have a couple of demo jumps lined up so the plane will be leaving at 4pm in the afternoon to head off to Ft. Leavenworth. The plane will be returning around 7:30pm to squeeze in a couple of jumps before the plane leaves to head to St. Mary's, around 8:15pm, to make another demo jump. Then... the moment all B-Licensed skydivers and above have been waiting for: NIGHT JUMPS! The moon should be nice and full, as long as the weather cooperates. If you are B-licensed or above come on out and make some nighttime skydives. We won't be jumping until it is completly dark, but you should show up around 9pm or so for the training before the jumps. Saturday is full of busy, fun events. Please come out and support us at our demo jumps in Ft. Leavenworth and St. Mary's, Kansas.
Sunday, July 5th
We will be opening at 9am for some fun, relaxing skydives. Sundays are great because usually we are fairly slow, so if you want to make a lot of jumps Sunday is your day. We will be keeping you posted on any plans being changed. Keep your eyes on the website! Have a great week and we hope to see everybody on Friday afternoon! Blue skies!
Weekend Plans: June 27th and 28th
Well, just incase we didn't confuse you with openings last weekend, we are going to throw something new in the mix! On Saturday, June 27th, we will be opening the dropzone at 2 in the afternoon. But, this is because our airplane will be in Marysville, KS for a demo. If anyone would like to come and support the club you are more then welcomed. Only C-licensed jumpers and above can jump, but anyone can watch! We are setting up some carpooling and would love to have anyone join. Just contact me, Erika Purcell, at erika.purcell@gmail.com. We are going to be having a lot of fun! Our plane will be returning to Wamego around 2pm to start some regular jumping for the remainder of Saturday.
On Sunday, June 28th, we will be opening at 9am, just like normal. Remember, Sundays can sometimes be great days for jumping, but produce small amounts of jumpers, so if you want more jumps come out on Sundays! We hope to see many faces, here at home, and supporting us at the demo in Marysville. Have a great Friday and remember to always keep your eyes on the website for updates and new information.
Weekend Wrap-Up: June 20th and 21st
Overall, it was a pretty good weekend. Even though there was no jumping on Saturday, Sunday we opened up and got some great loads in the air. Hope that everyone had fun at the Hillbilly Boogie in Mount Vernon. We missed you here, but we will see you next weekend! Congratulations to Ian K. on getting his A license. What an accomplishment! Hopefully, we will have two full days of jumping next weekend and maybe even some weekday jumping this week! Have a wonderful week everybody and keep your eyes on the website for up-dates.
