Just to let everybody know I scheduled an NRC contest for this Sunday's launch. All NRC events can be flown. I will probably have a few eggs available. Are there any NAR members coming?

Due to schedule conflicts, we need to move the next model rocket launch from Sunday September 2 to Sunday September 9.
Our current plan is to keep the following launch on its regularly scheduled date of Saturday September 29.
Our next model rocket launch is scheduled for this coming Saturday, July 28th at Buder Park. The current forecast is for mostly cloudy skies, light winds, and a high temperature of 81 - much better than last month! The rain that was previously forecast for Saturday afternoon appears to have been pushed to Sunday, but we'll still keep an eye on it.
We'll still start setup at 8:00 am and should have the range open by 8:30 if not earlier.
If you have any questions, please email admin@stlouisrocketry.com.

Carmelo Turdo of The Aero Experience joined us at our last Buder Park launch and took a lot of photos of our rockets in flight! Check out his story here:

Our next model rocket launch is scheduled for this coming Saturday, June 30th at Buder Park. Please note that this is a change from the originally announced date of July 1.
The weather forecast calls for light winds and a high temperature of 97. Right now, it shows the heat index exceeding 90 degrees before 9:00 am. As we have done in the past, we will be moving our setup time to 8:00 am to try to beat the heat a little bit. Also - we will likely be packing things up by 11:00 or thereabouts, so please plan accordingly. We do not (as far as I know) have any student groups joining us this month. Please come prepared with sunscreen and a way to stay hydrated.
As previously announced by John Buckley, this launch will be sanctioned as a NAR NRC (National Rocketry Competition) launch. Link to official NRC launch information. If you have any questions about the competition aspect of the launch, please contact John at jbuckley1996@gmail.com. Please note - if you are a competitor and would like to continue competition launches after the sport range closes (we know how great those thermals are when it's a thousand degrees out!) please make sure you bring your own launch equipment.
If you have any other questions, please email me at admin@stlouisrocketry.com.

I will be out at Buder park on Saturday, starting at 9AM flying NRC events. If any NAR members in the club want to join in I'll be there starting at 9AM. Based on the expected wind direction, I'll likely set up at the WEST end of the park. If you can't find me my cell phone is 636-734-0762.
