MASA holds a club meeting each month. Currently, the meetings are being held on the first Thursday of the month from 7:00pm until about 8:45pm.
Meetings are typically held at various metro area public libraries. All MASA members are encouraged to attend the meetings whenever possible. Visitors and prospective members are always welcome, too!
Each meeting typically starts with a brief discussion of club business, then rocket news & gossip, a technical or informational presentation or a group building session, and member show-and-tell. We are always looking for ideas and topics to make the meetings fun and interesting. If you have an idea, please let us know!
In July, we hold a club picnic instead of having a meeting.
In December, we hold a club holiday party instead of a meeting.
Occasionally, a meeting may be held in a special location for a tour or unique event. In the past, MASA meetings have included such events as:
MASA strives to hold one official club launch per month, year-round, typically on the 4th Saturday. Additional launches may be held during the summer months. (No launch is held in December.) The official launch schedule is published on the web site. Launch reminders are sent to MASA members via email and posted in the club's Facebook group. Launch dates are subject to change due to weather and other factors, so it's always a good idea to check the web site for the latest updates.
MASA launches may be held at any one of several different locations: currently a park in White Bear Lake, a park in St. Paul, or an athletic field near Elk River. We're always looking for additional launch sites. If you know of a possible site, please let us know about it! We're especially looking for a new high-power-capable launch site.
The locations of the various MASA launch sites may be viewed on Google maps.
