Duanesburg Skydiving club held its Safety Day on March 14th aligning with the USPA National Safety day. Safety day was led by Mark Wilson, the S&TA for the dropzone with sectionalized support by several speakers who launched into refreshers from gearing up to landing, and everything in-between. In-depth coverage was given following the USPA guidelines. The Judy H. Chelsea Safety Award was given to Tricia Small for all of her hard work with  bringing the student static line progression program into a more structured and focused program.   WINTER CARNIVAL FUN!  As Duanesburg Skydiving has done for many years, and in partnership with Duffy's Tavern, we operated our skydiving operation in Lake George each weekend during the February Winter Carnival. In a special event we were glad to help a young couple in love! At 5000 feet above Lake George we had the pleasure of helping Sam propose to Amber while riding to altitude for their tandem skydives. We had him turn around and get on his knees to show Amber a magic trick. It got very quiet and he just wispered it into her ear, tears started flowing and a quiet "Yes" and a kiss and hug ensued. The ring was a big chunk of amber. Then, it was time to hook up and jump! She jumped first, and did a great job! Congratulations to you both and we will be glad to jump you guys into the wedding!   Winter is on the way, but the fun never stops! We are the only area Drop Zone operating 365 days a year (weather permitting of course). Just like any other winter activity, if you dress for it you will enjoy it. Call to reserve your Tandem slot today!   Please remember we are totally dependant on the weather. Clouds and wind can stop the skydving, and sadly we cannot control those things. We are here for your fun and safety and we will not jump in bad weather. We cannot promise that you will jump the day of your training or schedule, but we will do everything we can to make it happen. We do not give refunds for weather related delays, but you may return to jump when the weather is better at no additional cost. No matter when your scheduled time to jump is we adjust loads keep the plane flying. We will make every effort to have you jump at your scheduled time, but many things are out of our control.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING: I can't say enough about my experience. Did my first tandem jump with "Toggle Tom". It was awesome and I can't wait to jump again. Everyone was very accomodating. We had a group of 5 tandems and everyone was so patient, friendly and professional. Had to wait for weather to pass so we spent a lot of time with the crew. Some of the greatest people I have ever met. I would recommend DBurg to anyone at any level.- Reese I highly recommend this place to anyone just starting out or even to experienced divers. When you arrive at the location you quickly see that everyone is VERY friendly and willing to answer any questions. It was great because bad weather delayed us for a couple of hours and they were talking and watching the weather channel with us. I felt very safe with these guys and would go again. - Sara http://www.dropzone.com/dropzone/Detailed/495.shtml Skydiving Albany NY - Schenectady NY - Troy NY
