After some strange winds and cloudy skies in the morning it turned out to be another great day of flying. 117 rockets took to the sky and a good time was had by all.
Thanks to all that helped with setup and tear down. All the help made things easy.
We are the Jackson Michigan Rocket Club and the Huron Valley Rocket Society
