dixieskydiver 0 #1 December 10, 2003 I haven't seen anything posted about this year's U of FL Collegiate Boogie down in Williston, FL so I thought I'd post this. I've seen alot of college students roaming this boards and I wanted to know how many of you are going to make it down this year. Our club has gone for the last several years, and myself personally last year and it has always been a blast. Christina from U of FL does a great job of organizing it. It is pretty soon after Collegiate Nationals but you should still make the trip and come and party with us. There are usually kids from Clemson, Maryland, Gtech and the Florida schools. I'd like to see other college kids come out even if you aren't with a "club" per se but just jump. Also DZ.commers are welcome, it's open to everyone, and I'd like to meet you guys in person. edit to add link: Collegiate Boogie Martin Luther King Jr. Weekend Dixie HISPA #56 Facil Rodriguez "Scientific research has shown that 60% of the time, it works every time."

Paige 0 #7 December 10, 2003 I think this is different than Nationals at Lake Whales during the holiday. This is Martin Luther King day weekend instead of Dec. I'm you'll be over seas and I'll be the only OU kid there again! Maybe some of the tandems will come out and play a little too!

alanab 0 #8 December 10, 2003 d'oh, i just saw the word collegiate and went to town! you're right girl! but you'll still be there both times, so have a blast! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pilotdave 0 #9 December 10, 2003 Just so you get at least one positive response, I'll be there. And this year, I plan to NOT come in last place in the 4 way scrambles! If I have to bring a couple golden knights with me and pay some people off, so be it. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dixieskydiver 0 #10 December 10, 2003 Hahahaha. I had just gotten my A license when I got pulled into those scrambles. I plan to perform much better this year. Yea and just so y'all know I'm not talking about Nationals this is something different that U of FL Falling Gators organizes on MLK Jr. Weekend. So it doesn't conflict with the Eloy boogie I don't think. Dixie HISPA #56 Facil Rodriguez "Scientific research has shown that 60% of the time, it works every time."

I may actually go to that boogie ... it's going to be during my birthday, good party Trailer 11/12 was the best. Thanks for the memories ... you guys rocked!

Kennedy 0 #14 December 10, 2003 I'd be there to help represent the terps, but I'll be an ocean and a few countries away. Who knows, maybe I can get out of the concert and make my ticket earlier.

Plaedouh 0 #15 December 11, 2003 Maybe I'll make it there, maybe I can't.. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

Paige 0 #16 December 11, 2003 I could barely get out school to allow us to have the club. We have to pay for the vans ourself :( No one in the club will do fundraising either so I'm stuck in a hard place.

Paige 0 #17 December 11, 2003 I was a little confused at first so I thought I was the crazy one not you guys! If you come to the boogie, maybe we'll hook up and party for your b-day! No one parties like Ohio University kids! We have 70,000 people in a town fit for 20,000 for our Halloween Bash...aka the Midwest Mardi Gras!
