Rocketry: Build and Launch Your Own Rocket


Youth / Classes / Science + Technology -
Summer 2025

Celebrate 34 years of Rocketry with Paul Christianson by building your own rocket and launching it into the sky! The rocket you build will be reusable and is yours to keep.

Students do not need to bring anything the first day, instructions for purchasing a rocket will be given during the first class.

Cost of rocket not included in registration cost. Specific instructions on rocket choices, where to purchase rockets locally, and Friday launch details will be shared during the first class.

The instructor will have rocket kits for purchase, or you may purchase on your own through a hobby store. Cost of rockets and materials can range from $12–$40, (depending on size and style).

The planned location for the Friday Rocket Launch is the soccer park next to Rosa Parks Elementary, beginning at about 8:00 am. Friends and families are invited to bring a lawn chair and watch. Factors such as wind or rain may cancel the launch event or postpone the launch to the following week.
