Valentine's meet

18th-20th February 2005

Hinton Dropzone

BCPA meets are always lots of fun, there are fancy dress parties in the evenings (theme this time is politically incorrect) and jumping during the day. If we get any bad weather then they organise things like scavenger hunts or whatever. I urge you all to come along, it's good to experience a new dropzone and you'll have a great time. Also, the more people that go the more points we get in the league!
