Our first club launch in Amesbury for 2018 will be on 21 April. There are plenty of volunteer opportunities still available to help things move along smoothly.

We'll start set up around 9:30 and start flying about 10:30 or sooner (depending on how many help set up).

Fliskits will be on site with all of his great products. AMWProX will be on the field, too. Contact either of them if you need anything in particular.

The wind will be trending out of the northwest so we'll have a fairly good recovery area if you point your rocket away from the crowd and downfield. Lower flights and dual deploy/chute releases are always a good idea.

We want all of the flights to land back on the field. Remember, some of the neighbors don't like us and those who do like us still want us to keep off of their property (ADVICE YOU SHOULDN'T NEED: if you do have to go onto someone's private property to retrieve a rocket, please go to their house first to let them know what is happening). Even our friends with the llamas need to know if we have to go into the pen; they now have some 300 lb rams that could do you some damage if they decide you would be fun to butt.

We're there to have fun, so let's do that.

Let us know what you'll be flying.
 
We're looking for volunteers to help out with safety check and launch control. You must be a NAR member for either of these jobs.

We're also looking for someone to loan us their vehicle for shuttle service as well as volunteers to take a shift as shuttle driver for an hour or so.
Go to the club's homepage and click on the launch duty link in the status box at the top of the page to sign up.

Thanks to all who help make our launches go smoothly.
