CLUB TRIP SCHEDULED FOR MAY 5, CANCELLED

We've got some bad news. Our dropzone (Skydive Delmarva in Laurel, Delaware) recently transferred ownership. As a result of this, the new owner has decreed that there are to be no jumps at Delmarva until further notice. Therefore we have to cancel the trip scheduled for May 5th. If you are still interested in jumping we would advise you to contact Skydive Orange in Virginia or Chambersburg Skydiving Center located in South-Central Pennsylvania. Unfortunately as of right now they cannot offer discounted club rates. If you have any questions or concerns just go ahead and send Tristan Gilford a facebook message, email him at tgilford@mail.umd.edu, or call his cell at 301-801-5470. Once again we're real sorry about this cancellation and are looking to solve the problem as soon as possible. Once the situation with Delmarva is taken care of, you guys will be notified immediately. Thanks and blue skies....
