Minnesota
First Lego League State Championship
Benilde-St. Margaret's High School, St. Louis Park
 MASA
has come on board as a technical advisor and sponsor for the new Minnesota
Rocket League competition. Sponsored by the same group as
the Lego robotics competitions, this new activity is being
spearheaded by MASA member Ted Cochran. MRL will be open to
kids in grades 4 through 9, organized in teams with an adult
coach. They will have a specific mission to accomplish by
designing, building, and flying a model rocket.
 To
help kick-off the Minnesota Rocket League and promote model
rocketry, MASA set up a display at the Lego robotics state
championships on January 26. A number of MASA members came by
to help, exhibit their creations, hand out MRL fliers, and talk to
kids and parents.
The MASA members who brought items for display and helped staff
the exhibit were:
- Ted Cochran
- Alan Estenson
- Rick Vatsaas
- Steve Hum
- Dave Fergus
- Ellison & Stuart Lenz
- Jeff Hove
- Glen Overby
Thanks to everybody who helped! In the coming months, we'll
be asking for more assistance from MASA members as we help the
Minnesota Rocket League.
