Skydiving at TAM8 - The Official Thread

Changed it to just the 7th because after looking at the schedule, there's no time for me on the 8th due to workshops I want to attend, plus I'm scheduled to volunteer for the show that night.

My reasoning for prefering the 7th is similar. I got an All Workshop pass. But, I think I can afford to skip the first few.

You might still be able to visit Hoover Dam, if they offer afternoon tours on the 7th or very early ones on the 8th.

Won't be in town on the 7th. Won't be in any condition for an all-day drive on the 6th because of events scheduled for the 5th.
 
Workshops :blush: Dutifully as I am I only checked my volunteering schedule, but completely forgot about why I am in Las Vegas on Thursday...

I am putting together packets the morning of the 7th, but I can give up my morning workshop on the 8th to go skydiving with the rest of you.

Please don't keep the table inside the quote tags. It makes it more difficult for the next person to change it.

I took Scrut off, because the joke got stale.

OK, name and dates for you, Mitch. Tressa and I are doing Hoover Dam tour, but I'm not sure which day- 7th I think. I'm flexible....
 
Actually not THAT flexible. Checked my flight info and note that I don't get in until dinner hour on the 7th. So if you go the 8th fine. If you go the 7th then I can wander the desert on the 8th looking for anyone blown off target.
 
Skydive Reservation Update

Well, based on the chart, I decided to reserve 3 spots for the 7th, and 4 spots for the 8th.

The reservation can be changed if needed.

If anyone else wants to join us, I am sure it would be possible.

I am, in fact, renting a car for this TAM. So, I should be able to provide transportation for the day I go. (Most likely the 7th)

For the other day, you might have to share a taxi. But, I might be able to drive you, perhaps, if I am not doing anything better at the time.

The place is about 10 minutes from the hotel. We should probably leave the hotel at 9:45 AM just to be "safe". We should try to be there by 10 AM.

(There is an official shuttle, but it only leaves from the Tropicana hotel, which is in the opposite direction from where we are going.)

We'll work out how to do the payment later.

I took the table out of the quote marks, to make it easier for the next person to edit.
 
I will still have a rental car on Thursday, so getting from the hotel to the site shouldn't be a problem.

Now I just need to start planning how I'll manage to be at the hotel at 9:45...
 
Na, it will take some re-planning, but I should be able to male the 10 AM jump.
 
Wow, Wowbagger, sounds great. Looking forward to do the jump with you and Tamazon on the 7th then. I gladly take the offer of the car ride. What a way to start my very first time in Vegas and at TAM... #-)
