Rainbow Valley Rocket Launch Estrella Park Campout
November 2004
 Now, this is a group that's ready to shoot some rockets! The Webelos 2 Patrol from Pack 676 joined us in Rainbow Valley for a day of rocket launches and an overnight campout at Estrella Park. Thanks to Bob Moreash and the Superstition Rocket Club for their help! Despite a few rocket crashes, a great time was had by all.
|
First we go over the safety rules and put the finishing touches on our rockets.
 |  |
 |
Hey John and Ian, it's not rocket science! Oh, yes, it is!

| And launching the rocket - unfortunately Bob forgot to tell everyone to watch and see where it lands...
|
...but after an hour of searching through the desert --- Mark is the hero of the day!
|  |
After the rocket launch we set up camp at Estrella Park
|
| I'll just relax here until my tent is set up and dinner is ready.. can someone fetch my slippers please?
|
Too many cooks?? What are you talking about? We're all food tasters.

It's the Pillsbury Boy Scout Biscuit Bake-Off! Gentlemen, start your dutch ovens..

 And after dinner we all enjoyed a camp fire with a flag retirement ceremony and skits and cobbler!
