September ROCC launch SCRUBBED

Ralph hates to say this, but....
OK, We knew it was a strong posibility, but due to the current weather
conditions, the planed Sunday launch out at the school on Popular Tent road is scrubbed.
It's been a bummer of a summer launch season, storms, excessive wet
conditions, ect, ect..
Ralph is working on coordinating a possable alternate launch.
His contact with Mr Williams out at the Farm indicates that the corn cannot
be harvisted unless it is dried, but has'nt had a chance to dry out yet. With
weather as it has been, he maynot be able to harvest untill late October.
Ralph is going to see if we can get a launch in at the school field
before then, or if the crops are still unharvested, plan a small "C" and below/
low level launch out at the school location for the October launch.
Ralph will keep me in formed so I can keep you informed, and Doc Russel
is getting a new rocket web site up and running so we can keep us all
informed.

Keep your powder dry and your exhaust nozzles clear.
