When the day was done there were a lot of tired rocketeers and 3 new L1 Certified fliers.
Joe Simon, Thanks for coming and spending the day with us. We really enjoyed the saucers. A special thanks for sticking around and helping me tear down the low and mid power launch areas. You and Darrel saved me a lot of time.
Ed Seward, Welcome to the club and thanks for your help on Saturday. We usually do not work first timers that hard but you helped us a bunch and we really appreciate it even though you only got in one flight. Bring more next time. Paint optional.
Darryl Hankes, Thanks for supplying motors so we could fly the big uns, calling in the waiver and sharing you knowledge of rockets and motors to us. Your help in setting up and tearing down are greatly appreciated. Thanks for all the effort and hard work you put into making our club top notch.
Our next Sport launch is March 20, 2010 with a TRA Research launch on March 21, 2010. Both launches are at Sims Farm between 9 - 5 if weather permits.
Stay tuned to the Bluegrass Rocketry Society web site for launch schedule updates.
See you there.
Joe Magginnis
Congratulations for achieving certification level 1 goes to:
Patrick Peterson, Thanks for entertaining us with the R/C gliders. Sorry for the lost reload casing.
All but 3 of the pictures were shot by Ed Seward which also made him work for his keep. Hope to see you as a member of bluesrocks real soon.
Thanks for all your input and help at the launch.
