It was a long fun day for all who could make the launch. We had some great flights and some spectactular landings. Only a few models were damaged but all could be repaired. No rockets were lost.
After tearing down the launch site, the last of us left the launch area around 4:45 pm with a day filled with rocket memories, tired rocketeers, and the smell of AP and BP.
Jeff, it was great seeing you and talking about your projects.
Our next launch is the big one the Blues Grass Blast scheduled for October 2 & 3, 2010 at ADC Park between 10 - 5. Food will be available on site both days. Competition and Sport Launch will occur both days. Come and help us meet the reagional requirement. Come and have fun. Hope to see ya all then.
Stay tuned to the Bluegrass Rocketry Society web site for launch schedule updates.
See you there.
Joe Magginnis

C.J., it was good seeing you again. Thanks for bringing Matt and letting him launch the Blue Ninja. I am looking forward to publishing the pictures on the site. Hope you and Matt make it to the next launch.
Dennis, you always are a hit with the big and small kids. Glad you could make the launch and thanks for helping with the launch.
Darryl, Thanks for all your support and help. I am still trying to figure out what you wrote in the sky but it sure was cool. Too bad about the nozzle blow. The green flames were impressive.
