SD Aggieland S. Padre Springbreak Boogie!!

Recommended Posts

Yup, you heard it right, Skydive Aggieland is moving the DZ to South Padre Island for Spring Break (March 8-16)! This will be our 1-year anniversary for the DZ and we're going to do it right with a crazy week on South Padre Island. This is THE week to be in S. Padre, Spring Breakers will be on the island partying hard and we'll be there jumping and partying with them.

We will have landings on the beach and LOTS of fun!

Stay tuned for more details.

From Houston its about 4 hours (I think), S. Padre is down by Brownsville (sortof). We will be flying ALL week. As for planes, we've got some stuff in the works to get some other aircraft, as of right now, we're taking our 2 C-182s down there, there's a chance of a DC-3 and/or a S. Otter. That'll be finalized sometime this week.

As for electrical hookups, I'll have to get back to you on that, I will find out, though.

UPDATE:

Apparently there are a few hotels with slots open, although I don't have direct links, a quick google search will bring them up.

We're making plans for aircraft, we have a number of aircraft availabe to us for our Spring Break adventure. So, we're trying to get a semi-reasonable estimate of the number of jumpers that may be attending so we can make the appropiate plans for planes.

any word on the runway? (er, road i mean)



Well, the law inforcement as well as some other organizations on the Island are strongly for it. Mainly since this is supposed to give the Spring Break'ers something to do besides drink and screw on the beach...

Last I heard, our written proposal is being reviewed by the city and Texas DOT, we should know for sure by mid-week or so. A little birdy told us that we have about a 95% chance of that actually happening though.B|

What's wrong with screwing on the beach damn it?

I'm sure the cops LOVE that .. when else do they get to walk up on fine college girls going "wild" during their beat?

"Oh please officer! please!! don't lock me up *sniffle sniffle, wink, wink* i'll show you a boobie or two" I can just hear it now


:D

We've got Condos! If you're going to be down there and would like to join us in our Beach Condos for a place to crash, nice showers, nice bathrooms, etc let me know, PM me or drop me an e-mail so we can get you on the list (there's not a whole lot of room, so its first come first serve).
