Rockets AWAY!!!!!!

We were able to launch our rockets and learn about the science of Rockets. We launched our 14 rockets into what we thought was a light breeze. We recovered almost all of rockets. Who knew that the winds at altitude were so different from ground level. Discuss with your Cub what they learned from the rocket launch and how they feel about making something that wasd able to fly so high. We estimate the rockets went 800 - 1500 feet in the sky. Thank you to the parents and leaders who helped prep the rockets and help look for our rockets.

Launch Date set for Monday - April 21

We are launching our rockets on Monday! April 21, 2008

Please bring your rocket ready to launch to the meeting. We will not be doing any rocket building at the launch pad. We will only be loading engines and installing igniters. We will need parents to help for the launch and recovery.

If you need help for contruction please contact a fellow scouting parent or leave a comment below. We will try to get you help but there are no guarantees.

The Weather forcast calls for breezy conditions during the weekend but bright, Suny and calm on Monday. Keep your fingers crossed!
