200 Jumps in One Day - Parkinson's Research

I've asked for permission from Sangiro and the moderators to post this also.

My teammate is doing 200 jumps in one day on Wednesday (16 June 2010). 199+ Hop 'n Pops, and one planefull for a formation jump.

We've raised over $60,000 so far this year (in addition to over $45,000 two years ago with the 100 jumps in one day). The DZ.com community gave great support 2 years ago for the 100 Perfect Jumps event as well.

What a great cause and results!! People can donate, volunteer (Skydive Twin Cities), buy a t-shirt, or give well wishes and support as good vibes and messages.

One deal sweetener this year is we are doing a 100 ticket raffle to win a PD canopy. 100 tickets only $100 each.

I've added an attachment explaining what to do if you are local -
if someone wants to buy a raffle ticket off site, buy them here: https://www.charitybox.com/pam/default.asp?www.charitybox.com

Note in the special instructions box that it’s for a chance ticket for Perfect Jumps.

Cool stuff! Looks like they've really put forth a solid organizing effort into it. So, do on-line purchased raffle tickets reduce the number of chances people get to buy at manifest? Or just dilute the pool?

Either way, good stuff. Post pics of the final formation when it's all done!

So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

100 tickets total - that's all. I believe they gave a certain number of the outstanding tickets to the online place. But I'm not really affiliated other than as a volunteer. One could send a note to Perfect jumps and ask directly.

Wow, I wish that this had been posted earlier, so that many others might have been able to donate. I cannot donate $100 at the moment, but this is truly a cause that is close to my heart.

You never posted your team mate's name, and I don't remember it at the moment. I have met him at a P3 bigway camp, and I think that what he is doing is awesome. I hope that it went well, and that a lot of donations were raised for Parkinson's Research. Let us know, if he plans to do this again next year, and thanks for sharing this.
