LUNAR,

Ames July 7/16 Launch:
Ames Educational Directorate and LUNAR are planning to holding a
Make-Fly-Take for ~50 Students from 0830 to 1030 at the Ames Visitor Center.
We need people to staff the Build session at the Visitor Center and the
Launch! We will be short people to work both events since they overlap. We
need the 6 to 7 people to run the launch and about 7-10 people to work the
Build session. Please contact me if you can help with the build session or
launch.  Thank you for volunteering.


LUNAR Club Meeting 7/14:
Everyone is welcome to come to the LUNAR meeting on Thursday, July 14th at
7:30 PM.  Since this is our only meeting during summer vacation time, we are
again doing a session focused on teaching skills and having fun with our
younger members.  I've been untangling and sorting out the lost and found,
and I want to encourage everyone to bring their kids and their kid's friends
to the LUNAR meeting!  We will have rockets for everyone, every kid will get
a couple rockets or stages, every adult will get a rocket or kit of parts
for a longer job back home.  We will be making booster stages, adding
clusters, and modifying rockets, and showing techniques that will give you a
new creative look at your own collection of parts.  These are not just small
rockets, either...there are some larger tubes and parts great for rockets
with C, D, and E motors to fly under 1000 feet at Ames.  Bring your own
crashed or damaged rocket and we will fix it up.  Bring extra parts to
donate to the mix.  Bring your own ideas and techniques to teach the kids.

Take advantage of the long summer evening and no school, bring the kids,
build some rockets and then a launch on Saturday...what could be better?

Agenda: Creative Rocket Repair and Rebuild Session
Paul Pittenger will lead a build session using the LUNAR lost-and-found box.
You can bring your own crashed rocket or parts also to rebuild or make a new
rocket.  Bring your kids and let them have fun building a rocket and take it
home with them.  This can be fun for kids of all ages.  Experienced
rocketeers will help kids to build their own rocket.  If you have extra
parts laying around then bring them and donate them for the build session.

Time:        7:30 pm to 9:30 pm Thursday, July 14, 2011

Place: Livermore Library Meeting Room B,
