Collegiate Boogie Jan. 12-15, 2007
Popeye2000 replied to falling.gator's topic in Events & Places to Jump
Just to make it official. The boogie fee will be $30. You still get all the free stuff as mentioned earlier in this forum (T-shirt, meals for 2 days, packing course, canopy course, coaching, raffle, goodies...etc) We will also be having a poker tournament fundraiser. $5 entry free, no limit texas hold-em. The winner gets a free jump. Also we will have a few Tony Suit wingsuits there for people to demo for free as well. -

I dont know if I mentioned it before, but we are also having our tandem special the same weekend. $139 tandems so bring your whuffo friends to enjoy a reduced rate jump! -
Santa skipped my house this year. Apparently he knew I wanted to owe beer for my first reindeer powered sleigh jump. He must be chincy on giving free rides to altitude!

So I figured I would say, the shirt design is complete. I am saving the front as a special treat. Its pretty freakin sweet! Youll have to show up to find out. IF you can spread the word about the boogie. It would be a shame for Mirage and PD to shell out so much and have a low attendance. Nothing else new. -
You had the whole Cab? Wow, I hope they didnt make you pay the fare.

I will try to show up...it all depends on how good Santa is to me this year. Has everyone here heard about the collegiate boogie in Palatka mid Jan. I hate to whore out this forum, but hey..... chek it out at www.skydiveuf.com or our forum!...or just ask missg8trdivr or jumpchikk. jumpchikk wasnt to organize a bodypainting 8 way, but I cannot be for certain she was talking about skydiving....

Well if you pay more attention, there is the Clemson Tiger in the photo. Now as far as him taking a bite, if I did that to every mascot who's team got beat by another, Smokey wouldn't even be appearing in the raft! -

Ok as requested I have some new and EXCITING updates. PD and Mirage have agreed to be major contributors to the event. PD will be providing FREE reserve test jumps (even paying for the hop and pop), free assortment of goodies, free demo jumps. PD and Team FastTrax will be holding a free packing seminar, and a free canopy control seminar to attendees. There is word of free canopy coaching as well by both PD and Team FastTrax, but I still need to confirm. Combined with what PD and team FastTrax are providing has >$500 value per person (remember boogie registration is only $25 maybe $30... we havent added up the costs yet)....so anyone who does not attend would be a fool. Mirage will be updating me shortly about what they are providing, but if it is anything like what PD is giving us, this will be an awesome event. Team Dirty Sanchez has offered to provide beer, and Jeff Guy, representing Team Dirty Sanchez, will be organizing some collegiate big ways. Make sure if you do a jump with Jeff Guy to get your Team Dirty Sanchez membership. It is free to join, contingent that you do a big way with a Dirty Sanchez officer. I have placed the order for the T-Shirt, and the design is pretty awesome. I expect the art work back in the next few days, and I will post it on the Falling Gators Website when I do. Unfortunately it does not look like we are going to get the balloon, but it looks like we may get the skyvan and helicopter. Art will provide updates as such. The Falling Gators are also holding their biannual UF tandem special on the same weekend, with tandem jumps being $139. So if anyone is undecided, let me summarize. For $25-$30, you get a free T-shirt, Free Breakfast and Lunch on 2 days, Free canopy control and packing training, Free canopy coaching, Free reserve test hop and pops, free demo gear, free goodies (pullup cords, closing loops, coupons, manufacturer T-Shirts), and you have a free raffle for helmets, Neptune gift certificates, jump suit gift certificates. I havent been to many boogies, but I have yet to hear of one that provides this! -

Sure we will accept your donation. The chili should make the ride's to altitude pretty interesting! -

Yeah the website is a work in progress....there is alot under construction....Im just swamped with studying for finals, so I havent had much time as of yet. Yeah I got your PM. I cant think of anything we need from DeLand at this point, although we have been contemplating in asking the DeLand guys back again to help cook....unless you know someone who wouldnt mind helping. Apparently Jared's parents wont be available to cook again this year. Know anyone else? -

It doesnt matter in your case Leslie. We intend that people would WANT to wear the shirt, and putting Tennessee on there would certainly discourage that!! -

We will generally be adding details to this forum listing as things progress. We have contacted several gear vendors who have agreed to donate anything from gift certificates to gear. Everyone paying the boogie fee will receive a raffle ticket for these items. Additionally we will also be providing goodie bags which will include brochures, stickers, and coupons that gear vendors have asked us to distribute as consideration for their donations. Except for those who have already stated, please let us know which colleges will be present so that we can make sure to include your school on the T-shirt!! -
Hey Jeth, Let me know how Clewiston is. I will be in West Palm over the summer, and am curious about that DZ too.... If you want we are having a boogie in Palatka (about 3 1/2 hours North) from Jan. 13-16.
