Special THANK YOU to our friends...

... for coming to the 2nd Annual All Kansas Cessna Boogie www.kansasskydivingboogie.com and helping make the event a success despite not ideal weather.  L to R Art Sherry from the Skydive Store, Jen Sharp, our DZO, Jay Schrimscher from SunPath, and Mark Klingelhoefer from Relative Workshop.  (This photo was taken in Jen's bathroom, wallpapered in Skydiving Magazine covers.)

Topeka Boat Show: Who won the FREE skydive?
Mid-February, Skydive Kansas had a booth at the Boat & Outdoor Show at the Topeka Expo center.  We held a drawing for a FREE tandem skydive.  Chuck Smrha of Topeka won the jump.  DZO kids Janelle & John picked the winning name out of a box at 4pm that Sunday, and we made the call: where was Chuck when he got the message?  In his truck in the parking lot!  He hadn't left the show yet!  Congratulations and we're excited to jump with you, Chuck!
