If anyone knows of a jumper from the Atlanta area named Glenn, please let me know. His girlfriend took pictures during a balloon jump we did a couple weeks ago. but I forgot to get his contact information so that I could get a copy.

And good to see you: Spence, and Julie. And Hans, Jack, Dennis. And Sears on the way to your event.
Given the high turn-over in skydiving it is amazing to encounter those friends again. And it doesn't matter whether it's been a year, three years, or ten years.

POP’s record and 10 way Competition recap.
First a big thanks to Chris, (The REAL CCH) Jack Donovan, John Walrond,(POPs record) Bruce Crawford (10 way competition) for cat herding, Jaclyn Donovan (video) and “Papa Ski” (video) and Walt (video) – especially Walt as he was a last second fill in. I wouldn’t cat herd without folks like that.
The new Georgia POP’s record stands at 29. The jump held for 22 seconds! It was made on the second attempt – which seems to be the magic number for us at the St. Paddies boogie below are the record holders:
Andy Whitlock Bill Leseman Bob Seaman Bruce Meinert Dan Eaton Debbie Brock Dennis Stevenson Doug Lewis Doug Mullinax Fortson Rumble Frankie Davis Glenn Crews Hal Spence Harry Collins Jack Donovan Jimmy Ashmore John Walrond Keith Barwick Keith Brock Kerry Bentley Larry Moore Laurel Nichols Lawrence Evans Robert Lowe Steve Chalfant Steve Isabelle Terry Curtis Thomas Hayes Todd Pitman
“Team Donovan” won the 10 competition, with all three teams being within a total of two points of each other. Bruce Crawford’s team came in second and yours truly in third.
All together our group did well over 289 skydives, we had one cut away with all gear recovered (Good job Kerry), and no injuries. For the most part the herd of cats did an outstanding job of being herded with a minimum of hissing and scratching.
Be safe all and see you in the sky!
CCH Fortson Rumble

Thank-you, Chris and Julie. You put on a wonderful boogie as usual! We missed a lot of old faces but also met a lot of new ones. I hope the newbies will continue to come back and bring their friends so we can continue to come back every year. This is by far our favorite boogie of the year!
Thanks to Hans for helping us give my future son-in-law a tandem and thanks to Jimmy for the photos. Thanks to the Muff Brothers for going with me on my 600th jump and being such kick-ass belly fliers so that our hybrid was perfect! Thanks to Normiss to getting me there and back safely and dealing with all the icky camper issues. And, thanks for sharing all of my jumps with me! And thanks to all of the dz.commers who made the time to give me a hug or a kiss. You all make all the Moderator stuff that I do worthwhile.
My funniest memory: I was sitting next to a mouthy Brit on one jump. He asked me my name, I told him my real name. He told me his name is Andy. "Copeland", I asked? "Yeah!" he says. I said, "I'm Skymama". His reply? "Oh, crap!"

I was camped pretty much right across from you, we exchanged hellos a few times . We may have spoken at some point while I was impaired! Great Boogie! Now all I need to do is figure out what options I want on the discounted Vector that I won!!
