April - Almost Ready and In The News


There is still a lot of work to do and we leave in a week and a half.  What do we have left to do?

  • Build our back up rockets - Done!
  • Test those rockets - Done!
  • Ship motors (must go ground due to materials) - Done!
  • Ship rockets and other stuff we will need while there - Done!
  • Get our t-shirts printed - Peter designed a fun logo for the shirts we will wear while there. Done!

What else is going on?  We got our presentation ready for the Presentation Competition while at nationals.  We send that in today and then they will pick the top 15 submissions.  If we are chosen we will get to do our presentation at the fly-offs.  There is prize money for the best presentation.  There is also a best dressed and a rocket building competition.

Update:  We were selected for the presentation competition!  We are practicing for that before we leave too. 

The news report that Emily Younger came out to film us for aired on Saturday night. Here is a link to that:
