Cub Scouts Rocket Launch


On August 22, the B7 Cub Scouts had a rocking good time when they gathered for their monthly Pack Meeting and rocket launch.  Rockets made by the boys and their leaders – Roma Goldhardt, Susan Foley, Lauri Hafen and Linda Felder, who has now moved from the ward but deserves HUGE credit for working to help Scott Stokes organize this event to earn his Webelos badge.  Also worthy of a big pat on the back is Aaron Larson who acted as a fearless and determined leader of the recovery crew.  The rockets were created from empty 2-liter soda bottles, decorated then partially filled with water and air, pumped in to a certain pressure.  When the owner pulled the rip cord in the church parking lot, his rocket whooshed, whizzed and zoomed into the stratosphere.  The purpose of the event was to help a Cub Scout earn his Webelos badge but the result of the activity was pure, memorable fun for everyone who participated!!!
