Queens Birthday Long Weekend

Saturday and Sunday was filled with great weather and some great skydiving, before the rain and clouds hit us on the Monday. There was time to have some achievements however with a big congratulations to Nicole Fleet and Dave Telfer for reaching 100 skydives. Also a big happy birthday to Bianca Hillier our ASM Winner who celebrated her 18th birthday on the weekend with a formated plane load, see pictures opposite. Bianca is the daughter of Andy Hillier who was the original skydiver in the family, Andy was on the jump and commented on what a way to celebrate your daughter's 18th birthday. Everyone that was on the skydive had a great time and was very appreciative that it was Andy's shout also!!!

Also a big congratulations to those that completed their first solo skydives on the weekend, and great to see Kyle, Jarrad and Daniel back for their stage 4's with a great attitude and patience to match - nice weather dodging boys!

Wow, wow, wow - What an evening, 18 skydivers into Aami Stadium with the one and only Mark Ricciuto landing last via tandem skydive, Ali from Triple M breakfast team landing just before the Roo! Thanks to all the SA Skydiving demo crew for an awesome demo, the crowd went wild, the atmosphere was great, and a big thank you to Charlton Draught who are our sponsors for the event, without sponsorship demos such as these would not happen!
