Memorial Day Jumps! 05/28/2008
 "We jump for sand wheelbarrows!" - Aaron and Tim CommentsWell, for Tim it was a bit easier cause he was holding my legs. And for me, what you see there is a look of utter elation and exhaustion. It ain't easy to do, but we trained for it on the sidewalks of the Fan as Tim and I competed in many wheelbarrow races around the city and gathered groceries for old ladies who had difficulty getting out of their homes. sWong 05/28/2008 7:23pm

we counted to 3. when that didn't work, we just said go. Kim 05/28/2008 9:03pm
Aaron, your face resembles that of a crazed British futbol fan. Tim, you look like an Olympic gymnast getting ready to land a 10-point vault. Jolly good jump, lads. Cheers! Lisa Cox 05/29/2008 8:45am
If only the retired couple knew that only feet away from them, a feat mankind has never seen before was taking place, maybe they would have glanced your way. Amber 05/29/2008 7:16pm
This is one of my prouder moments in my history of being Aaron's sister. Way to go, brother. (And crew). Leave a Reply | Welcome to Jump Because!

 In November of 2011, we asked jumpers to submit a photo that kept the spirit of Thanksgiving and this quote in mind:
"We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures." -Thornton Wilder This photo above, sent in by Rick from Utah, was chosen as the winner of this JB Challenge + Contest! His submission features his family, who was celebrating their first Christmas together in 5 years. As Rick put it, "That was a moment worth jumping." The complete story behind the jump and the original post can be viewed here. Current Favorite Jump:
A wonderful JumpBecause story: Jump Because... For a Cause!
In June 2010, JumpBecause hosted a Potluck-for-a-Cause fundraiser to raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. People brought amazing food, made fun crafts, participated in a raffle, and listened to great local music... and of course JUMPED! Check out the highlights of our fundraiser on the "Causes" page.

Jump Because was interviewed for the Michigan State University Alumni Magazine (Winter 2010 issue, p. 15).
