SARA's 2nd annual winter launch titled "Desert Heat 2006"

Join SARA for it's 2nd annual winter rocket launch on January 21st and 22nd. A 2 day affair with a waiver to 4500 feet. Currently we are attempting to get windows for higher altitudes. Motors limited to L (possibly M after a GPS analysis of the site). More details to follow.

SARA is now a Tripoli Rocket Association (TRA) prefecture

Thanks to the work of SARA VP Eric Burch, SARA has been designated as prefecture #93 of TRA and joins the ranks of very few clubs who have both NAR and TRA affiliations.
