At each Launch, we will hold a brief flyers' meeting prior to the first rocket.  There, we will inform flyers of the basic rules of flying at our launch site and give important updates for the day.  If you miss that meeting, please ask a Board member for that information prior to launching and/or recovering rockets.  In addition to the safety code, below are some requests for our flyers:
