Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group OT: Free Rockets to Fly and Flying Day in Pueblo, CO



     I know generally pilots don't like to fly around rockets but there is an aerospace related event gong on in Pueblo, Colorado in early August. It is called NARAM 52 (National Association of Rocketry Annual Meet) and will host over two hundred "rocketeers" from all over the nation. On July 31 and 1 August there will be a free "Take It and Fly It" event for the first 175 children who have never flown a model rocket before. Please spread the word with any family members, Civil Air Patrol, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, 4-H, Boys and Girls Club, and any other youth organization you may know of or be in contact with.

     You are always welcome to come down to pueblo and watch the events. Visit www.peakcity.org and click on the schedule to see what competition events are being flown. This will be the first NARAM to involve High Power Rocket (HPR) contests and should be very interesting.

     I look forward to seeing you there.
