The holidays are officially here and we are gearing up for Friday night's CSC Holiday Party. We hope everyone can make it to the event. The party is free and open to anyone who wants to join us. Again, there will be music, dancing, awards, food, and more. Don't forget that the party is BYOB and be sure to bring a gift for the gift exchange. Eric will be cooking for donations to the Nick Sclafani Fund.
Please help us get the word out about CSC Gift Certificates for great holiday gift ideas. The featured gift this month is FREE video with the purchase of a full-price tandem skydive - a $90.00 value! Customers can download their gift certificates from the website and receive them via email instantly. A perfect gift for those last minutes shoppers!
We've had some very strong feedback from people about the new "Frequent Faller Program" that was unveiled last week. Other than a noticeable increase in jump prices due to the cost of fuel, this program is designed to keep your jump costs as low as possible - specifically for those who jump a lot.

We are seeing quite a few equipment orders coming in as people gear up for the 2008 season. Many of the equipment manufacturers have 2 - 4 month turn-around times, so we need to get your orders in right away. All orders for complete systems placed between 1/1/2008 & 2/29/2008 will receive an extra 10% off our normal price!
The Annual CSC Beach Boogie in Puerto Escondido, Mexico is less than 2 weeks away. We are all very excited about beach jumps, perfect weather, great people, great food, etc. We'll be sure to give you a detailed report with great photos when we return.
The holidays are here, keep in mind that we are selling reloadable gift cards in Manifest and the CSC PROshop. Also, gift certificates can be purchased online. Certificates are emailed immediately upon purchase - perfect for you last minute shoppers!
Last Sunday was the Nick Sclafani Fundraiser at Joey B's in Crystal Lake. It was a huge success! The place was standing room only in the bar along with a packed tent outside. There were hundreds of people opening their wallets to help Nick and Amy financially. There was a live auction, raffles, free food, live music. Overall, a great event for the Sclafanis and everyone had a great time. As a bonus, I was able to talk to Nick on the phone last Sunday morning! He has made strides over the past week and things are looking really good. Todd and I headed over to the hospital after the fundraiser. Naturally, we brought Nick a magazine that we thought he would enjoy!
By last count, the fundaiser brought in over $16,000! Special thanks to everyone who donated. Let's not forget that Nick has a long road ahead of him and they will need as much help as we can give. Keep the donations coming! www.helpnicksclafani.com
CSC is donating a laptop to Nick and setting them up with CSC email addresses. Nick and Amy have never had a computer, so it will take some getting used to, but it will be a great chance for everyone to communicate with them. They can be contacted at nick@skydivecsc.com and amy@skydivecsc.com.
We would like to welcome Grayson Cooper Smith to the CSC family. Grayson was born December 6th at 7:19pm weighing 7lbs 12oz and 20.5" long. Carolyn did great and everyone is at home doing well.
