Save Rocketry Now! Have YOU donated?

I noticed the ticker on the web site has increased by at least $3,000 in the last 4 hours or so. I bought my raffle ticket this evening and I think our club is gonna donate $100 plus promote it at our launch Saturday.

Giant waste of money.

Bigger is better :)

The TV station will spend the loot frivelously :)

..and what are YOU doing to at least try to save the hobby? If you don't like it, at least buying a raffle ticket for great odds in winning from a $30,000 prize pool of rocket debris should be worth it.

Same here. We (NEPRA) are going to promote it at tomorrows launch, and buy several raffle tickets tomorrow night.

I have a moderately long list :)

Actually the raffle ratio of ticket to prizes is too good for a fundraiser and thus is a good deal just as a commercial purchase.

Yes, I contributed.

"October Sky" triggered my interest in the hobby. More importantly, if I hadn't seen copies "High Power Rocketry" at a local newsstand, I wouldn't have known the hobby existed. See the movie sparked a "You can do this too" response.

I went back to the newsstand, bought a copy of "High Power Rocketry" and hit almost every web site advertised in it. Having a source of information, was definitely beneficial.

What would have been just watching a good movie, turned into a rewarding hobby.
