Hi, we will be having a lot of meetings/events as we're starting out to get everything organised and everybody going. This will be the thread to check for any meetings taking place or took place if you missed it for any reason because obviously we can't always make a time for everybody.

Ok - seven boards - 8 including this one, it's gettin a bit much. So here's what we propose, Kirk and Lonestar are the two that met with the paper and there's another 2 or 3 of us that have been in this from the start so we want to do it right, it's not about leaders and crews (unless you really want that) it's about gettin organised.
I've chatted with Kirk so I know he's cool with this and I'm pretty sure Lonestar'll be down too. There's a lot of interest from some younger guys (and girls) out there as well as the older set. So... we split up into two main groups, one under 16's and another 16+ the main reason for this is to train and run with people our own age and abiity so we can all benefit! We can arrange jams when we all get together, which will be cool no doubt, but keep some order for daily, weekly stuff.
If we all co-operate with this it can start well and go from there - I'll start by making a under 16's and a + board - we'll all take it from there. Peace!

Hey all, Today was great fun, 5 of us met up at the Auboretumn, J(ay), Dan, Dom, Brendan and me, for the first official Lincoln Jam for the Lincoln Parkour crew.
We started off by jumping down some walls for a bit of a practice, then we moved on to jumping over and onto a few ledges. Soon after, we started jumping up walls and just doing our own little thing, followed by a quick session on the childrens play area =D
Then we moved on to jump over a small water feature and balancing on the railings on the side of a bridge, never a good idea by water, but luckily it wasn't a good day for swimming. The statue of the lion caught our attention and we got a photo of 4 of us on there, not a good sight when kneeling behind the lion...
After conquering the Auboretumn and a bit of a rest we headed off towards the Odeon car park, pointless, but the stairs are always good exercise..
Ventured to a few different spots, not much happened there, a few climbs but nothing interesting. Then we dispresed in our own different directions.
And so the day ended.. Hopefully there will be many more similar days - it is a great experience, jumping with friends and a couple of new people.
Chaz!

Righteo then, those of you who were there on Sunday 16th, you will know how much fun it was jamming up thee Arbo. But, unfortunately, those of you who weren't won't.
Well, here's an opportunity for all of you, who went, or who didn't, for whatever reason, to go!
Saturday - There will be a short Jam on the 22nd around town, there aren't many good spots, due to traffic, of human and cars but there a few good warm up spots for what is to come on Sunday
Sunday - *Drum Roll...* The Auboretum was soo good, i've decided it will be there again, with a few friends, but if anybody has any objections or a better suggestion, oh please do tell =)
Chaz!

Hey all,
I think it's about time, if not, passed the time, that we should have an Meeting of everybody that is 'In' so far.
We have a lot to sort out seeing as we are starting out and it will definately help us to get organised and everything which is essential is this is going to work.
Saturday looks good so far, looking at the Days post but if anybody had any objections please do say something, we really do need 90-100% turn out.
It might be slightly difficult to organise something for everybody, have any objections to Saturday, DO POST, don't leave it, and post the times that you are available too so that we can make sure to make it a time everybody can make too.
Thanks, Chaz!

The 16+ and Below 16 groups are a good idea because of school.
It looks like we'll have to make different arrangements then. I'll leave those arrangements to someone else because it has nothing to do with me... But this Saturday and Sunday is still on if anyone still wants in.
Chaz!

Hi there guys, i'm new but i represent about 10ish if not more people from William Farr school Welton. Personally I live in Lincoln but for the last two sundays we've been out around all over Lincoln and would really like to hook up with all you guys.
We spent about 4-5 hours touring the uni, town hall, city center, cathedral, bishops palace among other places getting video footage and exploring.
I'd be interested in getting out alot more with any local people (I live right near the arboretum/minster school) if anyone is near there message me and you can have my number.
This coming saturday 22nd I read your all meeting up can anyone tell me where/what time?
