skyjumpsteve 0 #1 November 23, 2007 There is a great article in the Journal today on the front page of the "Weekend Journal" section called "Skydiving's Great Leap Forward". The headline is "the original 'extreme' sport is reaching out to kids to help restore its falling popularity". It lists 5 tunnels (Perris, Union City, Raeford, Ogden, and Nashua) in a box with the title "Into the Air, Junior Birdmen". Very cool. The front page of the Journal itself has a pic and box in the header (i.e. Right above "The Wall Street Journal") that says "Skydiving puts its hopes in kids". http://online.wsj.com/article/SB119577059712701370.html?mod=todays_us_nonsub_weekendjournal Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kbordson 8 #2 November 23, 2007 I would LOVE to turn my niece into a tunnel rat when she gets old enough (and I get enough money to support my habit and hers!!!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
