Default Centuri Akela Boy Scout Rocket Kit Experiences

I wanted to conduct a quick survey to see how many folks here had their early rocketry experiences through the Centuri kit made specifically for the Scouts in the early 1970s, the Akela.

I recall an earlier discussion about this kit by someone who I think was trying to clone it, but I wanted to see how widespread the exposure to this kit might have been.

So.....if you had your first exposure to rocketry by way of this kit or were influenced to get into rocketry because of it, please provide a brief response here to that effect (just a sentence or two is sufficient).
