I was considering holding "The Art of Model Rocketry 2018" again and I am interested in suggestions as to what events to hold, who would be judges and what prizes to have.
So far, I thought of just having Sport Scale and Classic Model as the 2 events. We need judges and the judging takes about half of the day. We could also start judging at the library the week before so as to save time and have an art show there.
Joe at Godlewsky Farms has suggested providing some prizes and allowed us to get sponsors for more prizes. Perhaps some hobby shops or rocket companies could donate?
Since the NRC contests were started, there would be no NAR points and we could add to the rules to make the contest even better. I was thinking of adding a motor power in the HPR range, perhaps level 1 motors to the events for Senior Division.
I need input from interested people. If I do not hear of some interest, this meet may not happen at all.
