High-power launch cancelled due to high winds

Due to the forecast of high winds for Saturday, we have elected to cancel our attempt for a high-power launch this Saturday. We're disappointed that we could not get a launch this spring, but unfortunately the good weather we did have did not align with our opportunities to use the field.

There is a small chance that we could still hold a model rocket launch at Buder Park on Saturday. We will probably make that call Friday evening. If that does happen, we will most likely move the setup time to 8:00 am, as the current forecast is for 9 mph winds at 8 increasing to above 15 mph by noon.

If you would attend a "windy" Buder Park model rocket launch, given that the time would probably be something like 8:00 am to 10:30 am, please email me at admin@stlouisrocketry.com so I can gauge interest.

Thanks,
Dan Crank
Secretary, SLRA
