The First Two People You'll Meet

When our Jump Club member festival heads to Boston this September 7th and 8th, it’ll mark our third Jump Club (following NYC last year and SF in 2016). Which is crazy to say out loud and even crazier to plan for, since every new Jump Club has new everything: new food vendors, live performers, keynotes—the whole programming lineup turns over and a new cast of jumpers are celebrated.

But what hasn’t changed in three years of Jump Clubs is the type of people who join. I’ve bucketed the types of attendees into 4 groups, and will share a couple of them now, and a couple next week (to keep the suspense HIGH!). Without further ado, the first two people you’ll meet:

1. The Legend: the person who has done exactly what you want to go do - who has jumped and lived to tell the tale on the other side. The legend could look like you, or not, but The Legend inspires you because The Legend has done it. The Legend has risked things and found success—not just in normal terms but in happy, fulfilling, the-stuff-jumps-are-made-of terms. And here’s The Legend, up close and in real life, encouraging and supporting you to jump, too.  
   
   
2. The Kindred Spirit: the person who is looking to jump, too—but shares the same concerns, fears, hopes, dreams, and roadblocks as you do. You haven’t met the Kindred Spirit until Jump Club (except perhaps spiritually, but that discussion is for another day…) and yet you and KS (you’re on first/last name initial basis, duh) are like childhood buddies, like co-pilots preparing on the same flight ahead…and now, simply knowing each other exists, promises to make the journey to come just a touch easier.

Jump Club hits Boston Sept 7-8th—meet The Legend and The Kindred Spirit by grabbing passes before we sell out (for the third year!) now—and tune in next week for the final two people you’ll meet over the weekend.
