JohnMitchell 14 #1 August 28, 2012 Our son Brett, who's been a packer since he was 11 or 12, took the weekend off from instructing at iFlySeattle to come pack at the Leap for Lupus boogie. He just donated all the money he made to his mom's charity. $1000.00 How did we ever get a kid like that?He sure loves his mom.

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites vskydiver 0 #7 August 28, 2012 I asked him how many packs he did this weekend and he said that not all of that money was from just packing. He wouldn't say anything more than that. I suspect he waited until we got a total and rounded it up to help us make it to 20K. This is from a kid that works for minimum wage. He's not got a great paying job. $1,000 is a lot of money for anyone but especially him.
