March 14, 2020 – Launch Scrubbed
Important Update Regarding our scheduled March 14th launch. After deep consideration and discussion with the Board and other interested parties, we are now opting to scrub the March 14th launch.
We will be monitoring the public health situation presented by COVID-19. We are certainly eager to fly, but must do so in consideration of everyone’s health and safety. We will be back on the field as soon as the situation allows. Stay tuned for future updates and stay well. There is good season of flying ahead for us all once we weather this storm.
GO for Launch – Saturday February 15, 2020!
We are GO for launch, Saturday February 15, 2020! Please read the following important details:
1. It will be very cold tomorrow, so we expect to wrap up early. Let’s try to get our flights in by midday. Of course, be sure to dress warmly!
2. With the cold weather and freezing conditions we may need to adjust parking. Please follow any special parking directions you may receive upon arrival. If that involves parking along the access road instead of on the field, pull to the side of the road so as not to impede any traffic which needs to get by.
The launch kicks off at 9 am! We hope you’ll come out and enjoy a few hours of winter flying on the farm.
LAUNCH FOR FEBRUARY 8th IS SCRUBBED DUE TO FIELD CONDITIONS – STAY TUNED FOR ALTERNATIVE DATE
GO for first launch of 2020 – Saturday January 11th!
Our first launch of 2020 will be tomorrow January 11th. The fun kicks off at 9 am! Our team may need to wrap up a little early tomorrow so please try to arrive in the morning for the best shot at flying.
Weather-wise we are expecting unseasonably mild temperatures likely accompanied by a moderate southwest breeze. While we will have lots of clouds, the shower chances have been drying up in the forecast. It should be a fun time! ?
Saturday December 14th launch – Canceled due to rain
Due to impending rain and poor field conditions, our Saturday December 14th launch is cancelled. We’ll need to review schedules with our launch team to see if rescheduling to another December date is feasible. Stay tuned!
The Christmas season is one of the farm’s peak business periods. We encourage that if you are in the area, swing by and check out all they have for sale this season. From Christmas trees to wreaths and other holiday items, there is sure to be something to help you deck your halls. Remember, shopping at the farm is a great way to show your appreciation for all they provide us throughout the year!
Here’s hoping you are on Santa’s rocketry nice list. Enjoy the holidays!
GO for Launch – Saturday November 16th – 10am start!
We are GO for our Saturday November 16th launch. Please note the adjusted start time and special notes below.
Our launch will start at 10 am. This is one hour later than usual to allow time for frost on the field to dissipate. Please park on the field upon arrival unless directed otherwise.
It will be cold tomorrow and a bit breezy with winds expected from the northeast. This will carry flights out away from the flight line and off to the right into the fields. Please plan your flights accordingly.
Also since it will be cold tomorrow, we encourage all who plan to fly tomorrow to arrive so that you can fly by midday or early afternoon. When its cold it can become a bit of an endurance event for our launch team, so we’ll likely wrap up once everyone present is done flying.
Winter is on its way. Come on out and enjoy some flying before the true harshness of the season sets in.
November launch rescheduled
Due to some scheduling conflicts, our November launch has been moved to Saturday November 16, 2019. Hope to see you then!
