101 Aging But Dangerous Women Over 50 Will Check Skydiving Off Their Bucket Lists August 28 and Set World Record

Proceeds will benefit CornerSTONE, an agency advocating for abused women (www.cornerstonemn.org). The event runs from 8:45 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. at Skydive Twin Cities in Baldwin, Wisconsin - just 30 minutes from the Twin Cities. DIRECTIONS/Map: http://www.skydivetwincities.com/directio.htm

"When I decided to skydive, (for the second time), to celebrate a major birthday, (70 this time), my ABD cofounder, C. Suzanne Bates, and I had no idea that so many other women would want to join me," says ABD's Jean Ketcham. "What makes this event special is that members of the AGING BUT DANGEROUS community are jumping with me. Women can do ANYTHING they put their minds to-especially at this age—including jumping out of an airplane!"

For the past year-and-a-half since launching the ABD online and offline community, this zany organization with followers worldwide, has provided tools, a website, a blog, and special events, etc., to help women expand their boundaries. Overcoming their fears to pursue new or life-long goals brings tremendous joy and strength - and benefits women financially, emotionally, and spiritually.

"We are changing the way the world perceives women over 50, by changing the way we perceive ourselves," notes Bates. "We'll prove that again when women over 50 will stretch their existing limits and take the plunge to self-pride and self-appreciation at the first-ever Martini Jump."
