Hi Folks. It's time to start marking your calendars for the 4th Annual Grumpy, Gimpy Old Farts With Attitudes Taft Boogie. As always, it will take place over Memorial Day weekend on the last Saturday in May. This year it falls on Saturday, May 26th. Lyle Cameron has Taft & Perris drop zones communicating & for the second year in a row, a Perris Super Otter will be on hand for the event.

Taft drop zone owner/operator Dave Chrouch will arrange for the usual festivities: Saturday night dinner provided by "Maria's Kitchen", a keg or two of beer, and the house band.

If anyone has an EZ-Up lawn shade, please bring it. Also, remember to bring your lawn chairs too.

If anyone wants to participate in the "mystery" gag gift exchange, wrap something small & ridiculous & add it to the cardboard box which will be provided.....

Larry Walsh will be posting a sign-up list & will update it on a regular basis. This way we can all watch the list grow & see who's planning to attend. Also, check the Air Trash website from time to time for future updates, announcements, etc.

Click Here to get your name on the list. Let us know who you are brining with you as well so we can estimate the amount of food and other amenities we need for the event.

As always..... "Old Farts.... are the BEST Farts".....

Our newest Air Trash member, Johnny Granados making his 1st jump in 20+ years.

Great way for him to end the old year and begin the new one.

Let's hear it for Johhny! HIM, HIM!

Hi everybody.

We will be getting together EARLY at Perris on Christmas Eve morning, Saturday the 24th to make some leaps. So come on out. The weather is supposed to be great. We will be manifesting as early as possible and hope to get an airplane off the ground by 8am.

Hope to see you there and a merry Christmas to all.

There will be a memorial jump for Dennis Anderson this Saturday. The dive will be held at Perris and will go off around sunset. Anyone wishing to participate should contact Paul Reasbeck at 323-864-7230.

A mic will be set up afterwards for people to say a few words about Dennis and if you have photos or video relating to Dennis please bring them and please spread the word.

Sometime between Sunday night and Monday morning, Dennis made the decision to take his own life. That is all I know at this time.

To all the USMC Brothers & Sisters out there.... Semper Fi & Happy Birthday

To all Veterans Best Wishes Friday

Blue Skies,
Caz

God grant me the serenity to accept the difficulties in Life.
A belt fed weapon….
enough ammo to resolve the situation
....and enough fuel to get back to base camp
Amen.....

Each year John Bull and I get together at Perris on Veterans Day to make a leap or two. If you would like to participate we will be manifesting at 11am Friday morning. Civilians and Veterans both are welcome to come jump with us. :)

The response to our August letter announcing plans to celebrate my birthday on November 20th by making 80 skydives at Skydive Elsinore (CA) has been exciting and encouraging.

Team 80 Document

I am looking forward to seeing all of you there for my 80 birthday jumps.

The services and ash dive have been changed to November 6th at Perris. Originally I had reported that it was to be at Elsinore. Sorry about that. More info as I receive it.

This weekend was a weekend to remember. Perris was hosting the 200 way attempts while Air Trash was out in full force to support Roger Worthington as he trancends into current status once again after a 30 year layoff.

We were also out at Perris to participate in Lyle Cameron's 1000th jump. Lyle made his 998th and 999th earlier in the day and the jump was set to go off after 4pm. Some of the participants included such celebrities as John Desantis, Pat and Alicia Moorehead and Rich Brooks.

While we waited for Lyle's jump to come along we watched as Roger Worthington climbed aboard one of the otters for his first and second currency jumps to go off. Roger looked pretty good to us in the videos but he wants to make sure so he's doing one or two more before joining the rest of us in the air. Go Roger.

Lyle's load finally took off and we did our best to make an Air Trash showing for the jump. It was a typical Air Trash Load. After the jump we Pied Lyle and John Bull awarded him with a nice Zippo lighter with the Air Trash name inscribed on it.

The big way camp finally reached their goal of 200 on the following day and missed a second point by one grip. Here's to the new state record.

We all had a good time and look forward to taking up space in the skies over Perris again next week.
