MASA Rocketry

Launch Day Procedures for COVID Safety

1. At the launch card table will be a clipboard for LCO shifts of one hour each. The LCO will be responsible for assigning pads, trying to ensure folks stay spread out when loading up the racks. Those members that are qualified (have at least their L1 certification), please sign up when you arrive to help share the load.

2. As we have been doing since the beginning of the outbreak, there will be plenty of hand sanitizer at the launch card table for folks to use. We would also encourage social distancing of at least six feet, and would not discourage the use of masks so as to keep one another safe from spreading COVID per the MN Department of Health guidelines.
