My thanks to Event Director Burl Finkelstein and all the team from SoAR, ROSCO, and ROCC Sections (and the TRA SC Prefecture) for a job well done in organizing and running a great, friendly NAR National Sport Launch 2008 over Memorial Day weekend at the Super Sod launch site in Orangeburg, SC.

Many members of the National Association of Rocketry and other rocketeers from the Southeast region benefited from their hard work and skill in putting this event on and, like me, had a great time flying rockets and socializing with new and old friends as a result. It was a fine weekend of fun, friendships, and flying on an outstanding site. Thanks to all of you who ran NSL 2008 for taking your turn in service to the NAR by stepping forward to take this on.
