President's Weekend- any dz's in Virginia/Carolinas?

[NoRules 0]

A couple of us are looking to take a mini-roadtrip during the long weekend (Feb 19-22) and get some jumps in. We're coming from New York so is there a dz that's a semi-reasonable drive away (Virginia, North Carolina?) that is having a boogie or warm enough to have planes turning?

Thanks

Are you specifically looking to jump on the weekend? The dates you gave were mid-week dates. If you're looking to jump President's Day Weekend, Carolina Sky Sports has a Cabin Fever Boogie & Chili Cookoff on Saturday and Sunday, February 17th & 18th. Our January weather has been very mild (with many 70+ degree days). I doubt February will be that nice to us, but jumping is still good!!

Carolina Sky Sports, located in Louisburg NC (30 miles NE of Raleigh), is on a private airfield with over 150 acres of open land, offers indoor packing, and has free camping available (with a bath house) with RV hookups. The fleet of aircraft is great too!

Check it out at Carolina Sky Sports

I believe that is when Carolina Sky Sports is having their Cabin Fever Boogie & Chili Cookoff.

What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy
ones? -- Monday.

Ha- yeah i was looking at the weekend... no idea where I pulled those dates from!

And awesome, the cabin fever boogie sounds EXACTLY like what we were looking for

I had a blast last time I was down there so I'm sure this will be the same. See you guys there!

Beware... That first load on sunday after the cookoff on saturday night can be noxious!

Does anyone know if there is camping on-site or places to stay nearby? I might sleep in my van, but I dont think there's room for all 4 of us...
