Back In The Day, Part 18 - A Little Colorado Rocketry History

Because my build series on the Steampunk Protostar is creeping along appallingly slowly, and I haven't had any recent launch sessions to write about, I deem it necessary to come up with some filler material with which to continue posting at regular intervals in my humble little corner of the Interweb.

Thus, I have settled upon the notion of regaling all of you with a series recalling the short history of the Skywachers / Rocky Mountain Association of Rocketry club to which I belonged back in the old fleet days.

Skywatchers/ROMAR existed in Colorado Springs during the time spanning the demise of the famous Peak City Section through a point prior to the formation of COSROCS, the present area club. At one time ROMAR was the only game in town - the sole representative of organized model rocketry in existence along the Colorado Front Range.

So, it's time to dial up the BlastFromThePast "Waayyyy-back" machine.

Next stop: 1973......
