  1. Hey everyone! I apologize for not getting online but I am trying to get to Rantoul. Man I am tired!! Who made my schedule this year? But I wanted to take this time to say a few things. THANK YOU!!!! It was awesome. I am so proud of the way this went off for everyone. Everyone of you stepped up and made it happen! There were some MAJOR accomplishments over the weekend. I think someone needs to start a thread with a list of all the SCR's Bigways, and records. I know that 9 out of 11 people that got their water training went on and got their B license!! Guys and Gals, I cant put into words what is in my heart right now. You all ROCKED! The giving, sharing, teaching, and learning this weekend really left a warm and fuzzy feeling. I can tell you that Jerry is very proud of everyone. How do I know? Just look at all the pictures and video!! We had our closing meeting with Steve Boyd so the planning has begun for SF 07! We realize that we had some challenges this year, but we know what they are and we will fix them. We had 315 register making 2957 skydives!!! Great job everyone! Oh we had an Apachie helicopter show up on Monday and give us a show!! WOW He will be back for next year, with a couple of F-16 as well!! Woo Hoo! Again, I apologize, there are a ton of follow up things that need to be done, but it is difficult to do with our schedule. We will get them done, just not as fast as we like. Its people like yourselves that keep the drive alive for this event. I am honored to be a part of your lives. I cant say it enough but here it is again, THANK YOU!

  10. You cant drive from the camping area across the runway to the hangar, but you can drive out of the camping area down the main drive that runs into the dz (about a 2 stones throw). then into the DZ parking lot in front of the main hangar. Does that make sense? Bottom line is that you cannot drive across or around the runway. hope that helps. see yall soon
  11. BTW.....I have a card in my gear bag at Aggieland from some folks that do balloons. If it's okay, I'll look up your phone number from manifest and give you a call with their name and number Saturday morning. Hopefully, it's not the same people that had to cancel on us. Yes please do!!!!! swim on

  13. Hey folks, We need help, here is a repost for a request for help. we are still in need of a balloon this is our first time to have this challenge. He has to visit a 90 year old grandmother, so we wish him the best. yet this leaves us with a problem. But we do have this confirmed: Super Otter Caravan Helicopter Pitts PAC 750 Mullins King Air Powered Parachutes oh yes the Casa! We have done the best we can in regards to a balloon, but with no luck. See yall soon

  19. Game ON! Confirmed, Twister will be at SF 06.!! So do you think it can fly?? out of a casa? see ya
  20. Ok Game on! Twister will be at SF 06! Jaime and I will pick it up on our way down Sunday the 9th. We will return it on Monday the 17th They were nice enough to let us pick up and return it on our schedule. One problem is that I only rented it for 4 days.. So I told them we would only use it Thurs, Fri., Sat, and Sunday. She said wow, skydiving and twister what a combo! I also promised that we would not throw it out of the airplane and proceeded to explain a raft dive. So go here to help with ideas on how to give a major prize away and raise money to recover the cost.
