I love Skydive Midwest. The owner is a really nice guy and the people are great. Small dz, but sometimes that is a really good thing! I flew some video there a couple years ago and had a great time.

Northern Virginia Pizza and Boobs Party
weegegirl replied to weegegirl's topic in Events & Places to Jump
Skydive Orange has a 2008 Washington, DC 3-Day team called Free the Puppies. We are hosting a pizza party in Alexandria, VA, home of normal NoVa skydiver happy hours. Come meet skydivers from your area and help support a good cause. Who: Hungry pizza eaters of all ages!! Where: Generous George’s Positive Pizza & Pasta Place 3006 Duke St., Alexandria, VA 22314 When: Thursday, May 29th, 5 PM – 10 PM Save the Tatas! All YOU have to do is eat and drink. 20% of all sales for the evening go to Team Free the Puppies in sponsorship of the 2008 Washington, DC Breast Cancer 3-Day. All participants of the fundraising event will receive a Pink Ribbon Sticker for their contribution to the fight against cancer. Those who make additional donations of $10 or more will receive a Pink Breast Cancer Bracelet. Donation forms will be available at the event for tax purposes and cash donations are always welcome! What is the 3-Day? Participants will walk 60 miles during three days with net proceeds going to breast cancer research, education, screening and treatment through Susan G. Komen for the Cure and the National Philanthropic Trust Breast Cancer Fund. Can’t Make the Event? Show your support by sponsoring one of the walkers or crew members from Team Free the Puppies online at: http://08.the3day.org/goto/freethepuppies Breast Cancer Facts • This year more than 200,000 women and men will be diagnosed with breast cancer and more than 40,000 will lose their life to the disease. • Breast cancer is the leading cancer among American women and is second only to lung cancer in cancer deaths. • One woman is diagnosed with breast cancer every three minutes and one woman will die of breast cancer every 13 minutes in the United States. • An estimated 40,460 women and 450 men will die from breast cancer in 2008. • Only 5 to 10 percent of breast cancers are due to heredity. The majority of women with breast cancer have no known significant family history or other known risk factors. • African Americans have the highest death rate from breast cancer of any racial/ethnic group in the United States. • Without a cure, 1 in 8 women in the U.S. will continue to be diagnosed with breast cancer — a devastating disease with physical, emotional, psychological and financial pain that can last a lifetime. • Without a cure, an estimated 5 million Americans will be diagnosed with breast cancer — and more than 1 million could die — over the next 25 years. -
Happy birthday chick!

TOO COOL!!!! Just do it! You won't regret it. I promise!!! It's an awesome event for many reasons. First off, you are raising money for an incredibly important cause! And second, you are going to get in great shape training to walk 60 miles!! And third, you meet some really cool people when you get involved with an event like this. Congratulations for making that first step!

I have just registered the domain name: http://www.skydiversagainstcancer.com/ I guess I need to get designing. If you have a team participating in an event, please contact me to be included on the site! Thanks.

If you do, please let us know. Peregrinerose and I are trying to coordinate so that we have one general presence in both the Philly and DC walks. Skydivers Against Cancer Thanks everyone who is helping to raise awareness. If you are participating in ANY fundraising event for the fight against cancer please let us know and we will coordinate. I plan on making a website soon and having a place to promote all of the teams. THANK YOU!

(THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR DONATIONS, SO PLEASE KEEP READING. THIS IS SIMPLY FOR YOUR INFORMATION. THANK YOU!) Hi! A few skydivers have formed a team, Free the Puppies, to walk in the 2008 Washington, DC Breast Cancer 3-Day event. (see here: Free the Puppies) The Breast Cancer 3-Day is a 60-mile walk over the course of three days. Net proceeds benefit Susan G. Komen for the Cure and National Philanthropic Trust, funding important breast cancer research, education, screening, and treatment. I have created a Myspace page for our team if you are intrested in learning more (http://www.myspace.com/freethepuppies_3day). This is not an advertisement or a request for donations, I just thought you all might want to be aware that this group exists. We'd love to have more members, whether it be for this event or any event that raises awareness and funds in the fight against any kind of cancer. I know I have read some pretty heartbreaking stories over the years on dropzone.com from skydivers who have lost family members and friends to cancer. Personally, I lost my father two years ago to lung cancer and many of you provided support for me. Skydivers Against Cancer and Team Free the Puppies is a great way for you to get involved in something healthy that can really make a difference. Feel free to send me a PM if you are interested and want more information on how to get involved or how you can donate money or time to the 3day event. Thanks for reading!

Damn Jenn! 17?? Teeeheee. You were SHELTERED! I was 11 I think. I was terrified. They put me in their bed, with dinner, and full tv privlages. They told me to call the neighbor if anything was wrong. I did not move an inch until they got home. Every little noise had me shaking.
