The Des Moines Skydivers will be calling Knoxville home beginning April 1. This past Saturday members dropped from the sky at the Knoxville airport to see what Knoxville has to offer. 

President Emeritus Randy Roth tells KNIA/KRLS News fifteen flights carried 26 people for a total of 59 jumps. The club has leased land adjacent to the airport and plans to build a clubhouse and private campsite in the future.
