WHERE OH WHERE???

Hey,



My kids and I just got bit by this model rocketry bug. Does anyone know of a location within a few hours of the Bay Area in Ca that launches the "larger" size rockets? We've "successfully" launched three rockets at a park in our town, and we QUICKLY learned that a "C" size engine will make a small 12" rocket permanently dissappear. (OOOPS) I think this is the great hobby for a dad and his kids. My boys (14 and 7) are hooked. We have a complete checklist we go through before our flights and rotate "launch" duties so everyone gets a turn.



I would LOVE to take them to view launches by some more experienced rocketeers.



Any help would be appreciated.



David


Try LUNAR -

- local NAR club launching at Robertson Park in Livermore.

Next launch is this coming weekend IIRC.

Yes, the LUNAR launch is this Saturday. We haven't launched for awhile so everyone is hoping that the weather co-operates. Be sure to check the status message on phone line. And be sure to bring rockets to launch! Everyone is welcome.

You'll see a wide range of rockets... and rocketeers...

Cheers, Craig
