Hello,

My daughter and I would like to join in on the Jan 10 launch event at Snow Ranch. Coming from Watsonville, I want to make sure I know what I'm heading into.

Our rockets are less than 12" tall and take A-C engines, regular Estes models.

Is there a signup sheet where people arrive and are scheduled a launch time? How does it generally work to get in on the event?

Should/can I bring my own launchpad?

Are there likely to be extra engines available for sale?

I don't need a lot of detail, but like I said.. it's a long drive and there are very few opportunities for a legal launch around us, so I want to make sure I'm prepared and my daughter knows what to expect.

Thank you! Looking forward to meeting many of you.

-Jesse

  • Our rockets are less than 12" tall and take A-C engines, regular Estes models.
  • Excellent. We cater to kids!
  • Is there a signup sheet where people arrive and are scheduled a launch time?
  • No, make your rocket ready and you get assigned a pad. 
  • How does it generally work to get in on the event?
  • Arrive and bring expendables. Motors, wadding, igniters, drinks, food, sunscreen. Checkin at the membership table. http://lunar.org/membership.shtml warning. Rates are doubling in February. Might want to consider joining at the launch.
  • Should/can I bring my own launchpad?
  • No. We control the launch and have all the launch equipment.
  • Are there likely to be extra engines available for sale?
Thanks for contacting us. We're glad you want to fly with us.
