Join us at CSC

## **End Of An Era**

**Paradise Skydives - Vinton, Iowa**

Sadly, operations at Paradise Skydives ceased in March 2015

Our owner began his skydiving career in Vinton, Iowa - home to Paradise Skydives run by Jay Speckeen. After a great run, Jay  decided to shut down Paradise Skydives and move to the next chapter in his life. Most Paradise Skydivers are now choosing to call CSC home because of our friendly vibe and high level of customer service. We are located just 2.5 hours from Iowa City.

We hope you consider CSC and remember that not all skydiving operations offer the same experience.

Find out why Chicagoland Skydiving Center continues to be awarded the best skydiving center in the United States.
