Any interest by hams with cars, HT’s and hopefully APRS to help with 
recovery, should the balloon land on land.

Everyone
Our plan is to launch another monkey balloon this Saturday 
morning Nov 23 from the Discovery Museum.
(dependent upon weather of course).  This launch is open 
to the public, and the media has been invited!
 
We are in need of hams with cars, HT’s and hopefully APRS to 
help with recovery, should the balloon land on land.  
If it splashes down, the recovery will hopefully be handled 
by the Coast Guard.
 
If you would like to volunteer for land recovery, then please 
show up at the museum that morning.
We will begin at 8 am and our checklists, etc take about 1 to 
1.5 hours to launch.
If you show up anytime before launch, you can watch the 
testing and liftoff too!
 
So that we can plan, please RSVP if you can show and assist 
with recovery.
 
Thank you
