Guest Launches

SRA welcomes singles or families with Low Power/Mid Power rockets to launch their rockets with us. We do ask that non-SRA members contribute a $5 flying fee (payable at the Launch Control Officer table).  If the guest/family decides to launch with us on a regular basis we request that they join SRA. Also joining NAR or TRA (gives you better insurance).

For High Power Rockets it is a manditory fee of $20/day/person or you can join SRA for $20/calendar year for a single person, or $30/calender year for a Family.
