Woosh launch at Bong 4-25-15

Greetings All,

It's time for the April Woosh rocketry launch at Richard Bong State Park- AKA- Bong. The date is 4-25-15. We will have numerous pads to allow you to fly anything from LPR,MPR, and HPR. We welcome rockets of all sizes and shapes as well as rocketeers in any size or shape 😀.

Can't decide if your rocket should fly on an I,J,K, or L motor, stop in at Tim the Wildmans mobile rocketry shop. After talking with Tim you probably realize you need 1 of each.

So let's hear it-- are you coming and what are you flying?

Not sure about coming - what if I told you a 7.5 inch diameter, 9 foot tall rocket, called the Aaron Rodgers Rocket was flying on not 1, not 2' not 3, not 4, but 5 motors. A central L1520 will start this beauty out then (4) I212 Smokey SAMs will come on line. If that doesn't get you out at Bong this weekend you must be out of earths orbit. Woosh looks forward to seeing Bills flight.

Rumor has it there will also be a Jay Cutler rocket flying this weekend. I'm assuming it will hurt itself being put on the launch pad and then not be able to fly. Sorry - to my friends in Illinois- couldn't pass it up and last year neither could Jay. OK I'll stop now.

As of now the weather looks promising but it is April and we live in Wisconsin so please Look for more information including weather related updates at www.Wooshrocketry.org

Thanks and I hope to see you there,

Russell Westergaard
Woosh -Secretary

I will be there, and hopefully doing my L1 if a NAR member will graciously sign off on my flight. The plan is a Madcow Cowabunga on a CTI H-143 Smokey Sam.

I'll be there with my Wildman Darkstar 4" DD. Hopefully the rain stays away.

Make sure you bring your NAR card and the L1 cert form from the NAR website. Fill in what you can and be prepared to answer a few questions regarding your build, recovery, motor Cp and CG.

Ask for Russ and if I can't witness your cert flight personally, I will get someone who can.

I may just make it. I have had a couple of rockets ready for 2 months now. Would like to get them in the air.
