<p style="margin:0;padding:0;margin: 0; padding: 0; font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">You all want to tell us a little but about yourselves? What brought you to NRV Rocketry? What you would like to fly, learn or do?</p>

<p style="margin:0;padding:0;margin: 0; padding: 0; font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">This is a great place to ask whatever you like!</p>

<p style="margin:0;padding:0;margin: 0; padding: 0; font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">For anyone who wants to get INTO high power or look at getting certified.. Here's a nice little resource we put together on how to move from model (low power) rocketry into high power (and save some money in the process!!):</p>

<p style="margin:0;padding:0;margin: 0; padding: 0; font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">Although model rocketry is fine too. Many of our high power members still have and continue to fly some really nice model rockets too. Some even like to take some of their favorite Estes rockets and "upscale" them: :)</p>

<p style="margin:0;padding:0;margin: 0; padding: 0; font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">Also.. just to give you a heads up, once every couple of months or so you'll see someone put out a call for a "group motor order". Member Steven Florig often does this, but anyone might. We often order from one of the vendors listed on our <a href="http://nrvr.org/">front web page</a> (one of our current favorite HP motor vendors is <a href="https://csrocketry.com/rocket-motors.html">Chris Rocketry Supply</a>) . The reason for doing group orders is bc rocket motors, while nor explosive, are still treated as such by the Dept of Transportation, and so incur a $25 (or so) HAZMAT shipping fee. Pretty steep if you're just ordering $50-60 worth of motors.. So we'll often pool our purchases into a "group order" and save quite a bit of $$ in the process. So if you need to order some HP (or even medium pr model rocket motors).. feel free to put out a call to the mail list with a, "Hey! Anyone want to go in with me on a motor order?" At least 2-3 weeks before the next big launch.. and you'll often get a taker or two.</p>
