  1. I feel really bad about this, but I was probably that child to many people in my life. Having grown up on DZ's I would never expect facilities for children at the skydiving center, but I can say that there are some DZ's that are much more kid friendly than others. For example, I can say that taking a child to Palatka, FL would not be a big deal. Anyone who has seen Art with a child knows that it is okay to take a child out there. I can also say that I have driven 1.5 hours to a skydiving center only to find that the place was basically a hot box of marijuana and had to then turn right around with my 3 month old. I am more looking for places that are well known for having kids/parents around the skydiving center that parents would be welcome to bring their well behaved children, very much so like the dogs. I even thought about adding a second option for dogs. I personally have both. My mom owns a skydiving center and my daughter is allowed out at the DZ, but my dog is not because he misbehaved.
  2. I am interested in creating a network for parents in skydiving to promote people continuing to jump after having children. I grew up in the sport and understand that it is very dangerous, but some DZ's are super kid friendly. Basically, my first step is creating a list of skydiving centers across the US and internationally that are known for being kid friendly. Please post below skydiving centers that are vs. are explicitly not kid friendly.
