DJL 235 #1 October 9, 2002 Hey anyone know of any graduates of the Virginia Military Institute who jump? I'm a grad and am thinking about putting together a skydiving club for them to include student loans for Tandem and AFF, gear, etc. Looking for someone to do brainstorming with. -Doug"I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #2 October 9, 2002 That's a pretty cool idea. I was in the Corps of Cadets at Texas A&M (looking up at my Senior Boots in my room and smiling) and was wanting to get something like that together and trying to get an A&M military team together a while back, but it was shot down. Oh-well, it was a cool idea. Good Luck!--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DJL 235 #3 October 9, 2002 Yeah, one thing that I'm sure I'll run into is that everyone at VMI loves it that they have the authority to say no. Hopefully, I can keep it financially out of VMI's realm of authority and make the conditions of the funding that the cadet has to have a 3.0 and decent disciplinary record, neither of which I had while I was there. Actually, if I remember correctly, I was on confinement more time than I wasn't. We won't even talk about grades. Hopefully, the combination of VMI and the skydiver tight knit mentality will make this a self supporting group. -Doug"I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
