Hey everyone. The end if the year is almost upon us. I hope everyone’s finals are going well. If you all need a break, and want to come celebrate we’ll be going to Papa Del’s on Thursday at 9:30pm for pizza. It should be a good time. Please email me if you plan to come so I can get a general idea of the table we’ll need. Thanks.

 As always we’ll be jumping this weekend. However this weekend is a little different because Archway will have a CASA. The CASA is a huge plane with a rear ramp door. It’s gonna be really sweet! So if you want to jump send me your name, number, what day you want to go, what jump you’ll be doing, and if you can drive. It will be a great weekend to get out and enjoy the weather and the end of the semester!

A quick reminder that this will be the last weekend for the April Showers competition.

Blue skies!

Hey jumpers, it’s time to get jumping again.  Archway has a Super Otter there this weekend and it looks really nice so if you want to get skydiving send me an email with your name, what jump you want to do, what day you want to go, your phone number, and if you can drive.  Saturday is full for tandems, and we need more drivers.  Hope to see you up there.

Another announcements: If you want a barcrawl shirt you need to order them now!

 Falling Illini Barcrawl is Thursday April 17th.  The shirt will cost $15 and the design can be seen on the website.  I need the orders in to me by April 9th so that I can place the order. (the ordering link is in the attachment to this email)

Hey all,

So it’s time to start collecting your money. Daniel sent out an email earlier containing the designs and you can view them again on the club website. The price of the shirts is $15. Even if you can’t make it out with us, everyone needs another tshirt, especially one with skydiving pigs on it. This semester we will be taking orders and money through paypal. This way you’ll be able to make the purchase without even leaving the comfort of your rooms and the computer will keep a nice log of names and sizes for me.

PLEASE PLACE YOUR ORDERS BY WEDNESDAY APRIL 9 (4/9) so I can place the final order. Along with placing your order you can vote for the location of the last bar. The link to purchase shirts is in the attached file. REMEMBER: Barcrawl is THURSDAY APRIL 17TH.

See you all soon Laura

Blue skies! - Daniel

Hey all you skydivers! Hope you had a good Spring Break but now it is time to get back to the normal grind.  And if you want to enjoy this spring semester, why not go skydiving with the Falling Illini? The weather is warming up and we are getting some great jumps in.

This Thursday the 27th at 6:30pm in 124 Burrill Hall we will we having an informational meeting to show you all about skydiving and how you can get in on the action.  Stop by if you want to learn more, sign up, buy a t-shirt, or watch some sweet videos. We’ll be talking about the different options you have, and some cool upcoming event. Also if we have time, we will show the End of the Year Video from 2007.

Hope to see you there, Blue skies!

Hey skydivers! Thanks to all of you who showed your support at the Aviation Career Night. The Falling Illini had a booth there and we spread information, flyers, and stickers for the club. We even got a few excited people and soon to be students to sign up for the mailing list. It was great! 

Hey everyone! Welcome all of you new skydivers who signed up during Activity Day. We had a great turnout. I thought we were going to have a meeting this Thursday, but unfortunately we are going to have to postpone it. However, you don’t need to go to it to go skydiving!

This is how it works: if you want to go skydiving any weekend simply email me your name, what day you want to go, your phone number, what type of jump you want to make, and if you can drive.  If you have friends coming with you just send me their information, or email. If you don’t know what type of jump you want to do check out fallingillini.org under “My First Jump” or “Types of Jumps.” Or you can email me and I can give you suggestions. It’s that easy!

 It’s looking a little cloudy this weekend but if you want to go we will take you down! Blue skies! 

Welcome back! I know for most of you this time of year means back to school. But hopefully it will help that this also means we will be getting back to skydiving. I hope you all had a great break and for those of you who went skydiving despite the weather I salute you!

We have some Upcoming Events that you should be aware of.
