    Our next launch is at Sims Farm May 09, 2009 9-5 EST.
    22K wavier.

    I'm going to try and get us in the farm on the last weekend in April if the weather lets me.

    The golf Ball Loft was postponed this month, so both the Golf Ball Loft and Baseball Loft will both be held at the May launch.

    The June launch will be our 1st of 2 regional launches we hold this year, so if you can plan to participate.
    Stay tuned to BRS site for launch schedule.
