The Rocket Festival in Summary

What an incredible event! Two days of fun and launching (three if you count the evening launch on Friday), great weather, good people and a terrific turn-out! A huge thank you to everyone who helped set up, tear down, RSO, LCO, manage pads or otherwise lent a hand. The new Wilson launch system worked flawlessly – a terrific addition to our club’s capabilities! It would be impossible to hit every single highlight, but here’s a few: Craig’s tritetrahedron (I think that’s what he called it) had an amazing low-altitude flight; Joe Shrednowski’s newest creation is bigger and badder than all those he’s made before; Gary put his big black project up and really ripped open the skies; Christian had an incredible CATO; and of course the certification flights are always heart-stoppers, especially for those trying to certify. The comments I heard most often were “Terrific Event”, “Best Launch I’ve been to in a long time” and exclamations of that nature. Did we do good? You bet we did! See you all in October!
