Welcome to the College of Charleston Cougar Skydivers web pages. The club advisor and webmaster is Jeff Wragg. Don't hesitate to contact me.

While we have had 100+ students come out every year and make a tandem skydive, we don't have a sufficiently large nucleus of active skydivers to qualify as an official club any more. I will maintain the web pages in hopes of sometime resurrecting the club officially, or as a means of providing a little information to those interested.

Since our home dropzone (DZ) closed down, the closest dropzones (DZs) are Skydive Walterboro and Skydive Carolina. Walterboro is a smaller DZ, and is about an hour from Charleston. Skydive Carolina is between Columbia and Charlotte, about 2 1/2 hours away, but is a much bigger and more active operation with bigger aircraft. There are DZs all over the country though, in nearly every state. The United States Parachute Association (USPA) has a database of DZs if you want to find something close to home. Be very leary of searching the internet, as there are some internet-based operations with questionable practices.

Skydive Carolina will host a Special College Skydiving Weekend 5-6 April. Get out for it and meet college students from all over. More details here.

To get a little more info about skydiving, just tell me so on this email form or email me directly.
