Members and Friends,
NO GO for Oktoberfest. NCR’s Oktoberfest has been “officially” cancelled. This decision should come as no surprise. Common sense should strongly support cancellation as the prudent and responsible action to take. As stewards of our “permitted” parcel of prairie, given the “tinder dry” circumstances, the decision has been made to cancel NCR’s Oktoberfest for 2015. Better safe than sorry.
The opportunity to fly rockets remains. There are still launch events planned to occur in October. SCORE will be hosting an opportunity to fly at the Hudson Ranch on Saturday, October 3rd and 17th. CRASH launches are held on the first Sunday at Noon and the third Saturday of every month at 10:00 AM at Bear Creek Lake Park in Lakewood.
Tripoli Colorado’s last launch of the season in Hartsel is tentatively scheduled for Sunday, October 18th, dependent upon weather and Fire Bans. Or take a road trip to Jean, NV. to fly with Tripoli Las Vegas Friday, Saturday and Sunday, October 16th-18th. http://www.tripolivegas.com/
We are Good to Go with our scheduled and approved launch on Saturday April 5th and Sunday April 6th, from the North Site, subject to change – Mostly cloudy and High Winds predicted. Range and waiver should be active by 9AM on Saturday. The Pawnee National Grassland remains fragile and dry, so extra precautions are in order. Please stay on the authorized roads and please don’t park more than 100’ off the road at the flight line.
