OFFICIAL LDRS 42- urrg.us

[supertaco]

LDRS quiver pretty much ready to get scuffed up, full of farm dirt, lost, or crashed. L-to-R: J/K (20-ish flights), L (30-ish flights), M (0-ish flights) rockets. All EX.

 

[dr wogz]

don't forget to stop in Tops in Penn Yan.. mega grocery store.. beer munchies, sandwiches, etc..

and on the night that isn't the pig roast, get some chicken!

 

[MarsLander]

Anyone know how late on Thursday we can get a spot and put up canopy?

 

[EXPjawa]

No decayed onion smell? That's part of the ambiance of Torrey Farm!

They're really just at or below ground level, so I'm sure there will be some aroma to it. We'd hate to disappoint you!

 

[EXPjawa]

Anyone know how late on Thursday we can get a spot and put up canopy?

I would expect that the field will be operating until about 5PM. There may be people about for a while after that, however many of us will be back the campground to clean up and eat before long.

 

[MarsLander]

Do you need to be a NAR member to launch at LDRS? I have another adult coming and will bring his G motor rocket?

I believe it's required to be either a Tripoli or NAR member to fly at LDRS.

Thanks. Likely too late to get him signed up, I'll fly it...

NAR signup is almost instant. Getting the card takes a while (I won’t have mine in time for LDRS) but the have an online verification that I assume will be good enough to show at the launch (it had better be good enough).

Actually I shouldn’t say “instant”.., you get your number the following day, so you have to sign up at least one day before you need your number.

I'd suggest a printout or a copy of the NAR page showing registration. Mobile phone service can be dicey at the farm, so don't expect internet to lookup the registration. Come prepared.

Teddy, I am curious as to how the tickets / prizes will be pulled over the 4 days..

• Do we stuff the boxes on day one, then wait patiently for our number to be call over the 4 days?
• Are only "some" prizes put out per day? So each day is a specific set of prizes?

I wonder how many 'strips' will be put into one particular box?!

Paul,
There's a separate jug for you to put raffle tickets in for each raffle donor..
LOC Precision, Rocketarium, Eggtimer, everyone has a jug..
You've seen the list of prizes, you put your tickets in whichever jug you like..
The LCO will call winning ticket #'s as they're pulled..

Teddy, I'm familiar with how URRF runs, and am assuming the same rules / methods apply.

Just wondering out loud for other who also may be wondering.. If they come for a day or two: do they miss out when their ticket is pulled on the day(s) they aren't there?

Is it a daily thing? Or you stuff a box / jug, and hope your ticket is pulled the day you are there?

I'm not certain I understand your question Paul..
You purchased raffle tickets at URRG for years..
Nothing has changed..
You get your registration package / and or buy more tickets there at the registration table in person..
You tear the tickets in half and put half in the ticket bucket for the prize you'd like to win.
The other half of the tickets goes in your pocket..
How could a ticket # be called without you being there ????
You're the one to put the tickets in the bin...

[dr wogz]

@Onebadhawk I'm likely overthinking it. See you in a couple of weeks!!

edit: D'Uh, just went over the list again. You explain it perfectly. My brain is too full of "work" to fully comprehend what you wrote. My mistake! D'uh!!!


(I sooo need this "vacation" !!!!)

Good chuckle..

NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO..

I have no idea what you're talkin about Paul..

Mann, is that just perfect Ken,, lol....

But if it were only that innocent..

Teddy

 

[Onebadhawk]

Please everyone.
Paul is a wonderful, nice man..
His medication is a bit off..
He's been a bit delusional as of late..
Pay no attention to what he says at that place he was referring to, I think Country hat or something..
Nothing at all to see there..
Moving right along..

Teddy
