SoAR Dawsonville Launch Today

Published on February 23, 2021

Join us today at Dawsonville for this month’s SoAR Launch, from 11 AM to 4 PM.

This is our mid-power field, where rockets up to G power can be flown. It is very hilly, and cow-patties abound, hidden in the tall grass in the recovery area, so pick your shoes accordingly. Spectators are always welcome. If you’ve got a rocket, come fly it with us.

The latest weather forecast is showing cloudy with a 30 percent chance of scattered showers, though it may be mostly mist. The cloud ceiling will be VERY LOW, staying well under 1000′ all day but there may be small breaks in the clouds as we get later in the day. Wind will be from the south southeast at 5 mph, and we’ll have a high of around 66°F. It may be muddy depending on whether they got rain on Friday.

Just in case, please check your email (if you’re a SoAR member) and/or the SoAR website before coming out for the launch.

We will, of course, be continuing with social distancing and wearing masks is strongly encouraged (please wear a mask when at prep table and at safety check/launch control, and when interacting with others). Remember, you’re protecting them, and they’re protecting you. With infection counts going down and more people being vaccinated, hopefully we can get back to normal in a few months.
