NOTE:
If anyone knows of a field that could be used for rocket club
launches, please contact me directly at rocket877@aol.com
with the location and owner's name and contact info. Even a
field that is available only once a year or during a particular
season can be useful. I'll do a primarily evaluation, contact
the owner about access and pass on the info to the appropriate Texas
rocket club officers.
