sdctlc 0 #1 August 17, 2005 I looked and did not notice anything that mentioned the Leap For Lupus orhter then tha few "Great Time" posts.... It went off well and was successful in that the new NW Womens Regional Record is 25. Congrats to all that participated and gave their time! Some additional information and pictures can be seen at http://www.blueskies-skydiving.com/LeapForLupus.htm Scott C. Forgot to Add that they made the jump out of the Kapowsin Otter and a Turbin Converted C-207 named "Gonzo""He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"

EvilLurker 2 #2 August 17, 2005 Congratulations, ladies, and nice picture pages. And for a good cause, to boot. It does look like a great time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnMitchell 16 #3 August 18, 2005 A great time was had by all, and a lot of money was raised for Lupus research from both private and corporate donors, also hat and T-shirt sales, food sales, etc. It was rreally fun to have a lot of people from all the area DZ's together. It's been so long since we've had a proper boogie in the NW. Next year we'll make it a Saturday and do dinner and DJ, and beer afterwards. I think everyone is looking forward to doing it all again next year. I know I am. And a huge thanks to all that participated, helped and donated. You are all the best.

NWFlyer 2 #4 August 18, 2005 It really did have a boogie vibe to it. Lots of fun. Maybe next time they go for the record I'll actually have the skillz to participate. This year, I had to settle for being the only woman on most of my rides to altitude since most of the other chicks there were always on the record loads. Okay, that didn't suck.

slug 1 #5 August 18, 2005 Hi John We had a great time visiting with you the wife and most of the kids. It's nice to see two DZ's located so close to each other get along so well. Kudo's to the DZO's and the skychicks on the new recordWe got a XXL shirt for the wife She says it'll be her nightshirt. R.I.P. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnMitchell 16 #6 August 18, 2005 At Kapowsin we have a lot of great women skydivers. It was weird seeing the Kapowsin guys jumping without any women on the load. I think they were a little sad. I spent all day with people strapped on the front of me. S'cool.

I got to meet some new faces from some other DZ's and Keri put together a well coordinated set of jumps with women of a large range of jumps and abilities. In the end.. it worked and we all had fun..
