THANK YOU to everyone who participated in Southern Thunder 2006. This includes the flyers, the vendors, and especially the volunteers. The launch was definitely the biggest and best it's ever been. It was a very successful event and much fun was had by all. The weather was just about perfect. The field was wide open and green, as usual. Many big and small rockets were flown.

We had a tremendous number of participants this year. We also had a large number of on site vendors and we appreciate their coming to ST06 and I'm sure they appreciate your business.

If you have any comments about what worked for ST06 or what didn't, please drop us a line. We'll always take complements but constructive criticism can make for an even better event in the future.
