S.CO/N.NM-June Events at the Pueblo Weisbrod Aircraft Museum (PWAM)

From the S. CO Yahoo Group:

There are some interesting things going on at the
Pueblo Weisbrod Aircraft Museum for the month of June.
A special event is the "Paper Airplane Contest"
sponsored by the Pueblo Chieftain and Pueblo
Historical Aircraft Society (PHAS). This event is for
contestants of various ages to build a paper airplane
and have it fly the longest distance possible. There
will also be a competition for landing a paper
airplane closest to a target on the ground. There will
be cash prizes for winners.

We will also have model rocket flying on the
THIRD and FOURTH Saturdays of the month. Read the news
releases for additional information. Children under
the age of 18 will receive a certificate marking the
50th Anniversary of the creation of the National
Association of Rocketry (NAR)when they fly a model
rocket at any of the model rocket flying days. Contact
the NAR Section if you would like additional
information.

I hope to see you at one of our events.
