In 2023, Bravo Zulu Adventure Group had a goal of giving 12 heroes the thrill of flight through skydiving. We are happy to announce that with the help of Lincoln Sport Parachute Club we exceeded that goal and donated a total of 14 tandem skydives to our local heroes. The thrill of skydiving is truly an adventure that is full of adrenaline, excitement, peace, and many other emotions. As skydivers, this sport is near and dear to our heart, so the ability to share this experience with our local heroes is amazing.
