Sears 572

The 10 September 2022 SEARS launch has been cancelled due to weather.

We are tentatively rescheduling for 17 September 2022.

The next SEARS launch is scheduled for September 10, 2021! If you or anyone in your party or home are sick or have experienced COVID like symptoms in the last 5 days, please stay home this weekend and join us for the next launch instead! Our main goal is to keep everyone me safe while enjoying a day of rockets!

Observers, beginners, youth, scouts, and families are all invited to attend. Bring the rockets, and the club will supply the launch equipment. Setup will begin at 8:30 am CST and the launch will kick off at 9:00 am CST and will wrap up at 5:00 pm CST. There is a range fee of $10 per carload of flyers. Be sure to bring a sack lunch, sunscreen, and water. Feel free to bring chairs and a tent/umbrella.

You will come to a short paved section and at 4/10 miles onto this road turn left at the SEARS rocket sign. Continue on one lane dirt road past the sod farm offices into the middle of the field.

The next SEARS launch is scheduled for June 5 & 6, 2021! This will be a two day launch, Saturday and Sunday. We will be following social distancing guidelines and encourage each group of flyers to stick with together. While we should be able to maintain social distancing, we still ask that all attendees bring a mask. We will have some disposable masks if you forget, but it really helps the club if you can bring your own. We will have a hand sanitation station and we will be cleaning and sanitizing common surfaces throughout the day. If you or anyone in your party or home are sick or have experienced COVID like symptoms in the last 14 days, please stay home this weekend and join us for the next launch instead!

To all, due to a terrible weather forecast and lots of sever weather in the Samson area we are having to cancel this weekend’s launch. The weekend of 17/18 April doesn’t look any better, this will push us back to our planned 1/2 May weekend launch.

See you in May.

The weather forecast is calling for rain Friday, Saturday and maybe into Sunday. We are going to push back to the 13th. There will be NO ONSITE VENDOR on February 13th. Hope the weather is in our favor and hope to see everyone there!
