Summer Skydiving

On Sunday I graduated from the U of I, and so I’m retiring as President of the Falling Illini. The past year has been great, all you guys are awesome, and thanks for all the jumps. I’m leaving the club in good hands, though, as Daniel Bedford is going to be fearlessly leading many trips into the sky next year. I will be around for most of the summer, before I move to Colorado (strangely, Brad Schlesinger, the FI President before me, also moved to Colorado after he graduated), and we’ll be jumping as much as possible. We won’t be sending out weekly emails until the fall, but if you’d like to come and jump with us during the summer, send an email to Daniel (bedford2@uiuc.edu), and he’ll get you off the ground.
As my final act as President, I’d like to congratulate some new jumpers that came out and jumped on Mother’s Day this past Sunday. Tomoaki Hayamizu, Tomoki Yamaguchi, and So Nagaoka made tandem jumps, and Ho-Sung Chung went through the static-line first jump course. Way to go, guys!
