Boulder dress code… hmmm, torn jeans and Crocs… got it. I still may bring the booster of my L3 and pictures. I can always leave it behind if it’s not cool. Mike, this is really good of you to put this together.
How are we going to get our tickets Mike? Should we just meet out front?
Mike, I’ll just help you carry yours. I’m going to leave my stuff behind. I’ll just buy a book tomorrow and bring it. Bret, Mike should have given our names, so just go to the door, give your name, pay for the ticket(s), then go in. At least, that’s the way I understand it.

There will be a sign-in sheet with your names on it and our table is reserved. I’ll wear my NCR cap
I got the Ok for Everyone to bring a HP rocket (about 6 ft max). Bring your coolest bird. If we end up without enough room we may put some back in the cars. or leave them by the door. I’ll need help carrying Slipstick III and it will probably stand in two pieces. Be willing to let them lean on a wall or sit on a table.
Isn’t Slipstick III over 6 feet?

It sure is.
Okay, Mike’s is 10′ 2″, give or take. Man, I SO want to have Mr. Hickam sign my booster! Though it would be the same to me if Art, Conway, James, JW, and Joe would sign it. MHM. 8)
Bruce I say take your booster.. could be the once in a lifetime chance.. Then hang that thing up!!!

Conway, my WHOLE L3 rocket with Art’s paint job is the showcase of our home. If I could get HH’s signature on the fin with the rest of you guys would be great! I’ll give her a shot. 😉
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.
