WatchYourStep 0 #14 August 9, 2006 I can't get there to early as I'm starting a new job the week of. I'll head out Friday after work and will come back on Sunday night or early Monday morning. Two days will put enough strain on the old pocketbook. "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience.

FlyinMom 0 #15 August 9, 2006 I'm trying to decide where I should go for the holiday. Can you highlight for me what makes this boogie better than any other, why should I chose this event over the many others happening on Labor Day Weekend? Has anyone out there been to this event before? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WatchYourStep 0 #17 August 9, 2006 FlyinMom- Although Jimmy The Midwest Freefly Legend is omnipresent he is going to focus his physical form only to this boogie that weekend. This alone should make you want to do this boogie over all others. If you aren't sure who I speak of please refer to this thread Clicky start around post 8 and go from there for more information about The Man, The Myth, The Legend, The Jimmy.

kansasskydiver 0 #18 August 9, 2006 QuoteHas anyone out there been to this event before? Last year wasn't registration up to or above 500 and weren't close to 400 of those the first night alone?!? It's an awesome time, it's THE midwest boogie. I've been to it every year since 2001 when I started jumping. It's the highlight of my summer. I start school back up the week before and then take off. So in other words I'm a good student for a week and a half, then it pretty much takes till spring break to recover then spring break does it in for me again haha. It's really a good time, anyone who has been will tell you the same. Look how many of us know to the second when couch freaks starts... My home dz even has a countdown on our main page!<--- See look, pink dolphins DO exist! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kansasskydiver 0 #19 August 9, 2006 QuoteI'll be there with friggin bells on Wednesday night/Thursday morning. Dude... I don't even wanna know where those bells are gonna be hanging from... Oh and what's this I hear about some big red headed guy hogging a balloon... I think he was just passed the f* out, not hogging it haha<--- See look, pink dolphins DO exist!

shellybellyfly 0 #20 August 10, 2006 I think we hit close to 600 attendees last year... Flyinmama- This boogie is all about the vibe, the love, and of course some kick ass skydiving! I'm pretty sure we have the best aircraft than anyone else that weekend too! And you know what they say, you aren't a REAL skydiver until you do couch freaks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites BASE864 0 #21 August 10, 2006 I guess I can find some bells and ride up with you. Since I can't jump now, my DDZ should be real cheap. Maybe I'll just pack the entire time and make the boogie even cheaper! Can't wait to see all the ol' faces. And maybe I'll even have to find some Tigger wear.

I didn't have enough money or time to go to both, but after relentless nagging from this particular friend I took the pilgrimage to Fort Dodge one year... I've never gone back to WFFC.Come join us in Iowa this year and see why birds sing... or at least why chickens poop! "Ignorance is bliss" and "Patience is a virtue"...
