Anyone know of anywhere within 8 hours of Pittsburgh doing balloon (or helicopter) jumps this summer? I'm talking anywhere from Chicago to NYC to Toronto to DC, as I'm willing to travel a fairly good distance. (The place in Manitoba advertised in Parachutist for the 6-8 June is a BIT too far.)

I *believe* Chambersburg PA (AFF East) will be holding a "Chamber-Fest" cele- bration in conjunction with the township. They did last year and had balloon jumps. It is in early June I think. You can call them at (717)264-1111. Chambersburg is located on Interstate 81 just north of the Pennsylvania - Maryland state line. I think that is about 3 hours east of you.

We were planning to do a balloon jump down in Pigeon Forge, TN this spring when we went down there to do some tunnel flying, but it didn't gell for some reason which I can't remember. $60 was the deal if I recall, but they needed to be guaranteed a certian number of jumpers. Pigeon Forge is right near Knoxville, probably just inside of 8 hrs from Pittsburgh. -Olaf A-12241

Mike, Are you calling all the way from NJ to Texas to post this? There is at least one bbs in the NY/NJ area carrying the SKYDIVE echo. And *any* Fido bbs *may* carry the echo if you ask the sysop nicely. Have your local sysop contact Hector Mandel at 1:233/13 for getting a link. --- XRS!% 4.10 --- eecp 1.45 LM2 * Origin: The Drop Zone, Dave Appel, 1:231/30.30 (Quick 1:231/30.30) -- SKYDIVE - via FidoNet node 1:233/13 (ehsnet.fidonet.org)
