joni 0 #1 July 22, 2006 Couch Freaks is almost here. It is one of the largest boogies of the year, 2 Otters, a king Air and yes, a tailgate - Skyvan. There is no Scaryperry this year but I will be there with demos, organizing, and offering 1st jump courses, and I am not so scary. So there is no reason to stay away. Last year we had some nice 7 and 8 ways. As we have at least double the birds in NE alone, we should be able to double that. No excuses this boogie is right in the middle of the US, close to everyone. Come join the fun and the flock!!

dqpacker 7 #5 July 22, 2006 ScaryPerry isn't that bad. Beside's his music drowning out our music, and wakeing up every morning to a naked SP in your chair. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joni 0 #6 July 23, 2006 I tried to get Perry to come to this again but he had other commitments for that weekend. Thus, you will have to savor you memories. I am sure he would be pleased to see us continue to spread the love and expand the wingsuit presence this year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Waldo "Tigger" Morales passed away on November 2, 2005. In honor of Tigger, we are requesting that you all bring your best Tigger outfit for Tigger Day on Sunday, September 3. Tigger jumpsuits, Tigger hats, Tigger party-wear, Tigger stripes (we will have body paints available), and Tigger birthday suits will be the dress code for the day. Bring your love, big hugs, and huge laughs. This is all about remembering Tigger for how he lived and how we can all share his sprit with everyone we meet. Throughout the boogie we will be selling Tigger-inspired tye-dye shirts with all proceeds going to RAM volunteer corps, an organization that Tigger was actively involved in.
