Ready, set, go! With this rousing shout, skydivers from students to large groups have leaped into the air and in some way realized their fascination with human flight. Now it's ready, set, go for the National Skydiving Museum (NSM). The land has been secured and the initial designs and conceptual work on the exhibits are under review. It may take a few years, but when built, the NSM will not only capture our fascination with skydiving but it will carry on the legacy of the sport for future generations. Click here for the case for support for the Museum.

It's a perfect site on the most traveled highway corridor along the East Coast. Easy to see and easy to get to, the museum will catch the attention of thousands of tourists and drivers along Interstate 95 in Fredericksburg, Virginia.

The expansive 20,000 square foot space will feature a theater, exhibits of significant skydiving milestones, skydiving pioneers and champions, equipment from every era and a memorial wall. Click here to see the conceptual design drawings.

This history—our history—of skydiving is slowly slipping away. We must act now, while pioneers are still with us, memories are fresh and the equipment is intact. We need to record events, equipment, historical moments . . . anything and everything that has happened in the sport of skydiving since pioneers like Lew Sanborn, D-1, made their first skydive.

Not only do we need to preserve our start but also preserve our living and growing heritage as well—a simple baton pass in 1958 by Steve Snyder and Charlie Hillard has evolved to complex geometric formations of four hundred skydivers.
