Rocket Shoot POSTPONED until Sunday, July 11
Posted by admin on Jul 9, 2010 in Past Events
Rocket Launch
Sunday, July 11
6:30pm-8:30pm, Meadowpark Athletic Complex
Due to the unpleasant weather forecast for tomorrow, we are moving the rocket shoot to Sunday.
We will start at 6:30 on Sunday July 11 at Meadowpark Athletic Complex in Bedford. Click on the post below for the link to the location.
The good news is that if you haven’t already built a rocket you still have time to hit the hobby store and pick one up to launch with the Pack. Just pick one that is at “Skill Level 1″, either Estes or Quest brand. You should be able to put it together in less than an hour. Be sure to buy a pack of engines if you haven’t already requested them from me.
Read the Launch instructions that came with your rocket so you have some idea of what to do on Sunday. We’ll have seasoned veterans on hand, but it helps if you are a little familiar with the procedure.
Also – Insider Rocketeer Tip: Dust your parachute with a little talcum powder before putting it in your rocket. This will help it retain its shape when it deploys.

Rocket Launch
Saturday, July 10
9am-11am, Meadowpark Athletic Complex
We’re set to have our annual rocket shootout this Saturday at the Meadowpark Athletic Complex in Bedford (3200 Meadowpark Dr.) from 9-11 am.
Here’s a link to the location.
Bring plenty of water and wear your Class-B (t-shirt) uniform!
If you were unable to attend the rocket build last month, you can still come out and enjoy the fun. If you wish to build your own rocket [most Hobby Lobby type stores carry them], the Pack will supply some A6-4 engines – so either purchase a rocket that uses that engine size or purchase a package of engines for your rocket [relatively inexpensive]. If you participated in the Rocket Build [or using the rocket supplied by the Pack] – do not worry about the engines, we have them covered.

Sunday, June 27
National Scouting Museum, Irving, TX
2:30pm
Meet us at the National Scouting Museum, admission is FREE!
For those of you who are new to Scouting, the museum offers a sneak peek at the fun to be had as a Scout. In addition to the many interactive exhibits, the National Scouting Museum boasts the largest collection of Norman Rockwell paintings in the world.
This activity will count as progress towards the “Summertime Activity Award” pin. For those families who were unable to attend Day Camp or the Rocket build, this is a last chance opportunity to participate in a June activity.
Also, there is a fully inventoried Scout Shop at the museum. For new families, if you so choose, this could be an opportunity to purchase a uniform with the assistance of an experienced Scout parent and/or leader.
