freefalle 0 #11 December 29, 2017 okay, I'm sorry What does the 350.00 boogie fee include? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melissa126 0 #12 December 29, 2017 Organizers, discounted meal plan (if you are not registered you cannot use the resort meal plan), all transportation to/from your commercial flights and to/from dz/resort/landing area, goodie bag, t-shirt, super bowl party on the beach, and additional beach party. This is not a “cheap” boogie, we are creating a dropzone from scratch at a luxurious resort on the west end of the island which we are making exclusive to skydivers.
