Achievements

Cody Collins – Completed AFF
Matthew Bigby – Certificate A
Simon Backman- 100 Jumps

This week’s Newsletter, starting Monday 11th of September could almost be a non-event. Nothing happened today. On Tuesday 12 we put up six182 loads. Adam Parker nailed all six loads. Cheyne Kupfer and Hwan Hee Jeong were on all five others. Well done, great all day effort.

On Wednesday 13 it was similar. We put up some more loads in Charlie. Thursday got blown away. On Friday the 182 flew  another 5 loads. Danny, Geoff and Adam were on all five. I left late afternoon and headed to Mitchell Creek for a demo with Doug and Rod Benson into the Rock n Blues Festival on the Saturday.

Saturday was quiet but steady. Most of our regulars headed to the Queensland Champs at Tyagarah. Kevin White was here for his 1st Jump Course and did Stage 1. Cody Collins did Stages 7, 8 & 9 – completing his AFF, well done!

Cheyne was back for some more training.

The “Bond” Trio (Simon Backman, John Hannan & Luke Morley) were at it again for Simon’s 100th, taking it up a step to Superhero status.

Kane Challis got stuck into his B-Rel training. Well done to you too!

Doug put on a great Aussie Flag demo into the Mitchell Creek Rock n Blues Festival and Rod took some great shots. I had fun too. Rod and Doug then repeated the display when they jumped back into the drop zone late Saturday.

Sunday was similar to yesterday, quiet but steady. Our new tandem jumpers were Gudrun White and Sally Goodlet.

Kevin White did Stages 2 & 3 of his AFF Course.

Kane nailed his final B-Rel, well done and congratulations – B Certificate coming your way.

The Mitchell Creek Rock & Blues Festival was great and again, the demos on Saturday were terrific.

See ya!
Macca & Team Ramblers.
