On September 26th, Greg Nelson, a city councillor from Milton Ontario successfully
completed 12 jumps in 1 day from the Verzasca Dam in Switzerland. He was the first customer to ever complete 8 jumps and with 12 jumps, more than anyone in the world - a new Goldeneye record. This event's purpose was to raise funds and awareness for The Halton Learning Foundation, The Deck Youth Centre and Halton Womens Place.
The goal of Verzasca has been reached, but we still have the main goal of Gravity Gives and
THANK YOU TO ALL WHO DONATED!!
