Jump From 10,000 Feet!
Tue 23rd May 2017
Imagine the adrenalin as you look down from a plane 10,000 feet up and prepare to jump! Imagine free falling at 120mph through the air with your instructor before opening your chute and drifting down over the beautiful Perthshire countryside!
The Rangers Charity Foundation has a new tandem skydive challenge for 2017 on Saturday 16 September and it’s truly an experience not to be missed! Plus, you also the chance to raise funds for worthwhile causes and receive a True Blue Hero’s medal from a Rangers first team player!
The skydive will take place at Strathallan Airfield near Auchterarder in Perthshire. For the tandem skydive you will be connected via a harness to a fully qualified tandem instructor. The instructor will guide you through the whole jump from exit through freefall, piloting the canopy and landing and you will receive all the instruction you need on the day of the skydive. No prior experience is necessary.
The tandem skydive usually costs £280 per person however the Foundation has secured a special price for our participants of £250. There are 2 ways to take part in this amazing skydive:
• You can raise sponsorship of £500 from family and friends and take part in the Rangers Charity Foundation skydive for free OR
• You can pay for the cost of the Rangers Charity Foundation tandem skydive yourself (£250) and raise a suggested £250 in sponsorship for the Foundation.
