This upcoming Memorial Day Weekend there will be a party at Woody's which will be a tribute to all the BASE Jumpers that have died while living THE DREAM and to those who are still living theirs. The party will also be a charity event to raise money for some local entities within Twin Falls County that have unconditionally supported BASE jumpers over the years. These charities will be announced at a later time.
Where: Woody's Sports Bar & Grill - located in Old Town, Twin Falls.
When: Saturday, May 27th 9:00pm-1:00am (Memorial Day Weekend)
How: The party will be for BASE Jumpers and the Twin Falls community (we're pushing heavy on the community). There will be a five dollar cover charge at the door. After paying the band, 50% of the earnings will go to Woody's and the other 50% will go to our charity. There will be two bands playing w/PA system set up. One band that will be playing is PISS PUMP. These cats are crazy! The drink specials for the night will be 1/2 off all liquors and dollar drafts ( 9 good selections - no urine samples!). Also, dollar Pabst bottles. There will be two big video screens for continuous play of your favorite BASE videos. Including, of course, any memorial BASE videos. As part of the charity event we will be selling pricey Memorial Weekend t-shirts (just got done w/ design and order) with all proceeds going to the local charity of choice. At the end of the night there will be a transportation system (bus,taxi,etc.) set up to take any of those ROCK STARS who have partied too much back to their hotel rooms. Also, Tom A. will inform everyone of other ideas that we currently have on the burner for the weekend once we iron out the details. It should be a stellar weekend!

It's official: The two bands that will be playing at Woody's Saturday night over Memorial Day Weekend are Heads Like This and PISS PUMP. At www.headslikethis.com and www.PISSPUMP.net you can check out these two bands. Also, thanks to everybody who offered bands for this get together, however, I felt it was important to support the local community so I kept the bands local. These two bands have been great. They've tweaked their schedule so they can play over the Memorial Day Weekend and are super jacked about being part of a BASE jumper/community event.

Hey everybody, I thought I would post an update before I take off for the next 5 days. For Memorial weekend the local jumpers are having a fund raiser for the Magic Valley Paramedics. I spoke with the president of the " Hospital Foundation" yesterday and confirmed the fund raiser. The way we are raising money is by selling BASE Memorial Day t-shirts, 50% of the cover at woody's on Saturday night, 50% of the 50/50 raffle which we'll have at Woody's on Saturday night, and individual donations, etc. This fund raiser is intended to be an acknowledgement of the great service that the Magic Valley Paramedics have given us over the years. These guys have saved a lot of BUTTS! Currently Abbie and I have foot the bill for the shirts, so we'll be selling them. So come out and support the community that has supported us!

Or should we say WE HAVE THE BITCH BACK!

i am looking forward to seeing everybody there , it should be a fun time for sure for sure . muff muff muff

SOOOOOOOOO What's a good hotel to stay at? Low price most important, clean definately a plus. Discounts, thoughts........... Getting there on Thursday

The Super 8 is a good place to stay. (208-734-5801) They have biscuits and gravy for breakfast. If you mention that you are a BASE jumper, they will give you a discount. How cool is that?

Also, I have heard the Holiday Inn is reasonable.

Kewel, I'll give 'em a holla

See attached.

Arkansas Crew looks forward to seeing everybody. We will definitely be at the bridge and the party!
