For the 10th consecutive year BASE jumpers are organizing events to raise money for Grand County Search and Rescue and the city of Moab. The search and rescue team plays an enormous role in supporting all outdoor enthusiasts that frequent this area. This Thanksgiving let's make sure that "SAR," BLM, and the city of Moab we appreciate their support and offer it in return.
Previously every penny raised was given to Grand County Search and Rescue. At the request of Search and Rescue we are, "spreading the money a bit further around the community." We have donated tens of thousands of dollars to BLM, SAR, NPS, non-profits, children in need, and community members that have suffered awful circumstances. Moab has been amazing to BASE, it is up to us to return that favor.
In the past 10 years, we have raised over $150,000. The money raised is made possible by nearly every BASE manufacturer, community sponsors, volunteers, and the support of the BASE community.
How do we raise money?
*The majority of the money raised has come from selling raffle tickets. We will be holding a raffle the night before Thanksgiving, Wednesday, November 23th. Raffle tickets are $10. Prizes have included brand new wingsuits and containers, many massive discounts on containers, canopies, and wingsuits. Free body armor, pilot chutes, cameras, helmets, clothing, tracksuits, and so much more. The prizes have been pretty outrageous the past few years and that is largely because just about every BASE manufacturer has been incredibly generous. The success of this event is almost entirely because of their support.
*Apparel Sales- Shirts and hoodies of the event are sold in our store.
