Rocket Day 2022

Due to high winds, Rocket Day on October 2nd has been postponed to Sunday, November 6th, 10:00AM-12:15PM. Click HERE for the updated SignUp Genius.

Don't miss one of our most exciting days of the year, as scouts launch their homemade model rockets into the Needham skies!

DETAILS: Sunday, October 2nd, 1:00-3:30PM at Claxton Field. Click HERE to sign up for a time slot.

Parking is in the Claxton Field lot. If full, please park in the Horsford Pond parking area. There is NO parking along Central Ave.

Scouts should wear their Class A uniforms or Pack t-shirt.

ROCKETS: Rocket Kits will be distributed at our 1st Pack Meeting in September. Scouts should assemble their rocket prior to Rocket Day - rockets can take a bit of time to assemble, and be sure to leave enough time for the glue to dry!

Please do not attempt to modify the rocket by adding additional materials. The rockets go very fast and only work if built according to the instructions. It is unlikely that your rocket will fly if modified and, at worst, modified rockets can be a safety hazard.

The Pack will provide engines, igniters and launch pads.
