This weekend is going to be a GREAT weekend to skydive! Saturday we are going to travel to a dropzone in Hinckley Illinois! This is a farther drive than our usual dropzone we jump at, but it is a bigger facility and a great place to skydive! We would like your information as soon as you know you would like to make a jump - but please commit - because some might not be able to come if we get too full (transportation has lately become an issue, so people with cars.. we would love for you to help us drive - we do provide gas money!). Since this is farther away, plan on it taking all day - we might not be getting back until late so bring things to do (or a camera to take sweet pics!). Sunday we will be going to our regular dz, but again, plan for it to be an all day event.

Static liners will be on the regular schedule and jumping at the same place as always.

Everyone - Please e-mail me your information:

AND - CONGRATULATIONS TO DEREK RUNGE FOR GETTING HIS A LICENSE!

Hey Skydivers!

The weather last weekend stopped us from jumping, but this weekend is supposed to be beautiful! - Lets take advantage of it!

We also have a special plane coming in town to jump us called a beach  18 - They’re awesome, and not something people get to jump out of everyday.

Let us know if you would like to make a jump with us this weekend. We need your:

Hello Skydivers!

Wednesday’s meeting was a great turnout - thanks to everyone who came! If you couldn’t make the meeting don’t worry, all of your questions can be answered on our website fallingillini.org.

JUMPING THIS WEEKEND!

- We are jumping! However, this weekend we are not having a first jump course for new static line students. (So those of you who have done a static line before, you can still jump -it just applies to first timers).  If you would like to come with us this weekend please e-mail me with the following:

The Falling Illini will be hosting an informational meeting this coming Wednesday (tomorrow - September 3, 2008).  This is a time for you to learn more information about the type of jumps offered and prices -especially for those of you that are brand new to the sport and don’t know anything about it!

There will be a short presentation followed by time for you to ask us your questions.  The meeting will be held from 7pm to 9pm in 151 Everitt Lab (located on the corner of Wright and Green on the Engineering Quad).  The meeting will probably not take over an hour and feel free to leave early if you need to.

See you there!!
