Due to field conditions and Sunday’s forecast, we are cancelling the March 12 Fox Valley Rocketeers Launch.
Fox Valley Rocketeers 2022 Flying Season Finale
The Fox Valley Rocketeers closed out our 2022 flying season with 53 flights at the Hughes Farm. Mike Moran led all flyers with 11, followed closely by Jeff Kajtsa with 10.
For the season, Mike again led all flyers with 62 flights, followed by Pete Kazawski with 50 and John Ager with 47.
Congrats are also due for Julian Wisniewski and John Agar for successful NAR Level 1 HPR certification flights.
Finally, thanks to Ed Chess, Bob Zurek, Kurt Gunther, Bob Kaplow and Phil Nubel for range support.
We look forward to more fun rocket flying in 2023! On to the winter building season!
Sunday, October 9 Launch Postponed
I don’t have any confirmation that the harvest is complete at the Hughes Farm, so we’re going to have to postpone the weekend’s launch.
Once I have confirmation that harvest is done, we’ll reschedule the launch.
Apologies for any inconvenience.
April 11 Launch Postponed
Due to wet field conditions and the forecasted rains this weekend, our April 11 launch will be postponed until April 18.
June 2018 Fox Valley Rocketeer Launch
The next Fox Valley Rocketeers launch is Saturday, June 10, 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, at our Kishwaukee Park launch site.
