i went down there a couple of weeks ago. i searched all over the place and the word was that it went out of business just months ago. we checked the place they had listed on the beach as their office. we even had a travel agency make some calls for us but they couldn´t find them. i´m pretty sure it doesn´t exist anymore. their phone number is also out of service. the one thing i didn´t try was emailing them so give that a shot but i doubt they´re open anymore. woa....that was cool....

I just wanted to give a big thanks to all the people who helped me along the way. I'm almost to jump number 100 now and I have had plenty of help along the way. Thanks to everyone in Lodi where i did my training, my home DZ in san diego, Byron, Hollister, and of course to the people who put on Bridge the Gap in Elsinore, jumping with you experienced jumpers gets me out of ruts when i get stuck and can't figure out what i'm doin wrong and makes the whole dropzone experience even more enjoyable. thanks again. woa....that was cool....

fallman replied to skydivingdutch's topic in The Bonfire
cliffhanger has a horrible base jumping scene. two guys jump off a cliff (horribly obvious they only jump three feet on to matresses), then it cuts to a skydiving scene, and to top it off, they talk to each other in freefall. wow woa....that was cool.... -

First off, I do not have any formal education on the subject of private/public/parochial schools. The following are just my experiences. I went to private parochial schools throughout my education until i went to college. I am now at a public university and don't think i could go back to a religious setting, it just didn't fit me. That's not to say it's wrong for everyone. Schools really have to be judged at your local level. The only reason i was put in a parochial school was that it was the only way for me to get an education with adequated resources. The increased tuition provides much more disposable income for a school. The public schools in my area recently had to choose one period to 'eliminate' because they can't afford to have seven periods anymore. There are obvious problems with the public schools in my area including violence, horrible attendance, and the students test low(poor overall education). If a college sees an applicant with the same gpa from my private school and the local public school who do u think they will accept? Certainly not the kid from the high school well known for a poor quality of education. Another thing that could be viewed as good or bad is the increased level of competition at private schools. Children are encouraged to get better grades to the point of a stress overload. For someone already in a difficult time in their life(high school students), should the main focus in their life really be their school curriculum. Some kids spent so much time studying that they may have permanently socially handicapped themselves. Children need free time to grow and learn through doing the stupid childish things we all did/do. In my area, the only way to get a top quality education was to go the catholic school route. However, the theory that religion provides a moral backbone of some sort didn't hold water there. Drug usage was high, people were just as mean to each other if not crueler than at a public school, i have heard accounts of people buying grades as well as their way out of trouble. The latter could be simply applied to schools in wealthy areas. The whole experience has cast a negative light on religion for me. Everything at private schools seems to be money related and you have to be careful with what message that sends to youngsters. I learned at a very young age that with enough money I could get away with anything. Can't make grades, no problem, just have ur parents make a sizable donation. No matter where u send ur kids, as was pointed out above parental attention is a HUGE factor. Many of my friends went to a public school. How my friends viewed education was usually nearly identical to how their parents viewed it. I knew i was going to college before i finished 5th grade because my parents told me it was simply part of the process. It wasn't if i was going to go to college but what college i would attend. woa....that was cool....
