Just a reminder for everyone, we have our monthly build session tomorrow in Rosamond. The session will be held at 6843 Elder Ave in the large shop on the right of the property. Bring your own kit to build or just come hang out. Session starts at noon and ends at 3pm! I have water available but if you need any other drinks please bring them. I also have plenty of tools and stuff if anyone needs anything or forgets something!

Branch Elementary’s 5th Annual Edwards Intermediate Space Challenge!
Hey everyone!
It’s that time of year again, when Branch Elementary holds their annual Edwards Intermediate Space Challenge! SKAR has volunteered to help the kids build rockets, and to help run their launch for the last two years, and I am hoping we can get enough volunteers together to help out again this year. Unfortunately I will be out of town for the first week and will not be able to personally support this as much as I have in the past. If anyone is interested in helping out, I have below the email from Kim Cantrell who runs the program, please get in contact with her and let her know you are from SKAR and are willing to help. Having base access is easiest, but even if you don’t I beleive the school can sponsor you on for the day(s) you wish to help. See info below!
Good morning everyone!
Branch Elementary is hosting our 5th Annual Edwards Intermediate Space Challenge on May 23, 2017 from 10 a.m.- noon. Community volunteers are needed to make this event a success! The Branch “Rocket Lab” will open May 9 through May 18, from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. Rocket building mentors are needed to guide students through the process of assembling a “Big Daddy” model rocket kit. Mentors are free to set their own schedule during our “open” hours. Launch crew members and recovery personnel are needed on May 23, from 9:30 – 12:30, to ensure a safe and exciting event for all. We are looking for rocket integration and banner design judges also. Judging of team rockets and banners will be May 19, throughout the day. Rocket experience is not necessary, so please, come spend a few fun hours with us! Please contact Kim Cantrell, Branch Elementary, 760-285-0058 or kcantrell@muroc.k12.ca.us to sign up and help Branch students.
Please feel free to forward this email to other wonderful volunteers! Thank you for giving your time and talents to challenge a new generation of creative thinkers.
With kind regards,
