Thanks everyone for a great Summerfest 2009.  We had over 800 jumpers show up for the boogie and it was certainly the best to date!

Skydive Chicago's Summerfest is the summer boogie to be at!  This coming year will mark the 9th annual Summerfest, an event that continues to grow with each passing year.  As always there will be plenty of aircraft to choose from, world class organizers for all levels, vendors, and events to keep you moving all day and night!  Come see for yourself what all the talk is about.

Plans are still in the works so check back for updated information!
