I'm getting back into this awesome hobby and was wondering if anyone in this
NG knew of any model rocket clubs in Northern, Nevada?
I know there are a few Bay Area clubs that launch in the Black Rock Desert
according to my local hobby shop, but they were unaware of any local clubs.
TIA, - Jeff
AeroPac. The number one rocketry club in the world. No question
about it. No brag, just fact. Not meaning to dis other clubs... Just my (not
so) humble opinion. 100K waiver, and 500 square miles of absolutely open
recovery area. This place is so big and open, you can see the curvature of
the Earth.
When was the last time you attended a launch where they gave you
free K700's and M1419's? Check out the AeroPac ARLISS program. Google it.
When have you attended a launch, in the middle of the desert, with a
pot-luck at the end of the day, where they serve up ice cream and margaritas
with everything else? AeroPac!

Jeff, I don't know of any local clubs in the Reno area. AeroPac has
about 10 or more active members in the Reno, Sparks, Fernley, Carson
City area. You can drop me an e-mail and I can pass it along. Or you
can come out to one of our launchs.

According to the membership form you MUST adhere to TRIPOLI rules at
their launches.
I guess that means no excommunicated members can "just fly rockets", eh?
