The exciting week of parachuting events from canopy formations in the sky to high speed landings over the pond will take place as follows:

Weather does effect skydiving activities, especially Parachuting events. We’re keeping our eye while Hurricane Irma makes landfall over the weekend. You too can keep your eye on the forecast HERE. Links to follow scores, updates, and more will be posted on our Facebook page.
