Subject: Rocket launch 24 Mar, north of Pasco
All,
We have rockets and motors to lend, so this is a great opportunity to try rockets for the first time. In addition to a fire pit, there will be a port-a-potty onsite. A launch at this time of year is VERY weather dependent, so please check in Thursday evening either with me or the website Derek listed below. We recommend dressing in layers and sturdy shoes.
This launch is being sponsored by the brand-new Tri-Cities Rocketeers club, which is a "sister" organization to Blue Mountain Rocketeers in Dayton. The two clubs will be working together to offer more launching opportunities to folks in our area.
Hope to see you there!
Sherrill Fink
