Default 10th annual Bunnell Blast - November 14 and 15, 2009

North East Florida Association of Rocketry (NEFAR)
is pleased to announce:

10th annual Bunnell Blast - November 14 and 15, 2009

Range operations begin at 10am each day.
Night Launch on Saturday (until 9pm)

Raffle!

The field is FAA waivered for high power rockets flying
up to 2,000', with call ins to 10,000 feet.

We are all very excited that the 10th Bunnell Blast is right around the corner.
Every Blast has been a hit, with each one being larger than the year before. It's very
fitting the 10th Bunnell Blast will be the biggest and best yet. There are already
a number of flights planned that would be highlights at any large launch. Add
in the night launch and you have two days of non-stop rocketry!


Vendors supporting Bunnell Blast 10 include: Bernie Lalime from Wildman
Rocketry and Jim Harris from Gorilla Motors. If you have any specific motor
or supply needs please contact them ahead of time with your requests,
and the earlier the better. Bernie can be reached at:
BENBUZZBOY3 [at] aol.com and Jim at: rocketman [at] sprynet.com.

Roger Smith of JonRocket.com will also be a vendor at Bunnell Blast 10.
Check out their website and contact them if you have a request or question.


We have received some wonderful donations for the annual raffle. The
raffle has always been a huge hit with terrific prizes, but this may be
the biggest one yet.


Don't forget for Bunnell Blast we will have a night launch Saturday!
Rockets must be clearly illuminated (visible at all times during the flight).
All flights will be limited to a maximum altitude of 2,000' AGL and the
recovery system must be flight tested and adhere as close as possible
to the recommended 15 fps or less decent rate. It's tougher to get out
of the way of a falling object in the dark, so think soft landing.


More details and further updates will be available on the web site-

Everyone,

Bunnell Blast is coming up fast. For those of you that plan on staying Saturday night so you can make the most of the weekend then you will probably need a place to stay. We are continuing our tradition of using the Super 8 as the host hotel. It offers many fine amenities such as a roof, beds, showers, and a friendly staff. All of which make an agreeable end to a long day of rocket flying. If you wish to make reservations, give them a call, and be sure to mention you are from the rocket club so you can get the lower rate ($44.99). The contact info is listed below. More updates to follow soon.

Greg
