> said that he could use a hand.  So let's help out! Here's how:
> 
> Since this is an VAST run launch, here are the various "Range Duty" jobs, and 
> an email link to hit up Bob and Chuck to volunteer:
> 	http://www.valleyaerospace.com/files/Range-Duty-Job-Descriptions.pdf
> 	mailto:rso at nrvr.org/?SUBJECT:Volunteering_for_Range_Duty
> 
> be sure to include the position you would like to help with and approximate 
> time of day and Chuck and Bob will pencil you in.
> 
> If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to respond here or to 
> the RSO@ address listed above.  
> 
> 
> NOTE: This will be the last Kentland Farms launch for at least several months 
> due to crops so we hope to see you at the site!
