May 27 Launch Snafu
The park district forgot to unlock the gate at our Davis Road launch site. Due to the holiday weekend, we were unable to contact anyone at the park district to get the gate open. So we unfortunately had to cancel the May 17 launch.
Join us for our next launch, Saturday, June 10, 9-1, at Davis Road.
