Thank you notes from 4th graders for helping them build and launch rockets

The Wright Stuff Rocketeers helped four classes of 4th graders at Brantwood Elementary in Dayton, OH build and launch rockets in early May. I missed the build on Monday, but helped with the launch on Tuesday. We helped between 50 and 60 kids launch rockets. This is just one of the many outreach events that our club and eRockets does every year, but the response from the children was really cute. Here are just a few of the thank you notes we received.

Carter, congratulation to WSR on a fine effort! Keep up the good work.

Excellent outreach!

Wright Stuff Rocketeers definitely has found the groove when it comes to programs like this. Great group of fliers!

I scratched it and it had a faint root beer smell.

That's really neat that your group does that. Those cards are really special.

The outreach efforts of WSR was one of the reasons I joined the club about a year ago as part of getting back into rocketry in my retirement.

The notes are so cute! Overwhelming and inspiring! The kids really know how to appreciate things from little to big.

Those are great. Sounds like.a fun time.

I think 4th grade is about the max I would consider "smelling the brown" as directed on a card from a random school kid. Definitely not if it was a middle schooler...

that really does make it all worth it, doesn't it!!
