Another Congratulations!🎉 Dan and Peter did B-Rels, and the regular fun jumpers all got a jump in.
Thursday – A not so good weather day. Low clouds and winds kept most jumpers away. Only 2 loads took to the skies.
Friday – Today the weather was bad, not one load took to the skies. Much needed rain fell. The kangaroos were happy.
Saturday – Same again today. Low clouds and rain kept everyone away. The indoor fire place was the place to be. Brad Markwell returned after a 14 year break for a refresher course.

That was the most exciting adrenalin rush I have ever had. It was made so easy by the staff and those who jumped at the same time as I did. Not only did I feel included, but the genuine friendly nature of the people in that plane dissolved any nerves I had. What was so invigorating to see, was the eagerness of all to get out of the plane with no hesitation. Now: to the guy who took me as a Tandem, Tye, I know this man personally and wanted to jump with him. That never distracted from the professionalism shown and practiced by this Tandem Master. You made it easy and fun and beyond that safe. You are one top notch flier and I will jump again with you should I ever decide to do it again. Thank you so much everyone.
