High Frontier 20 - Rocket Launch

  • Google Calendar ICS

High Frontier 20

Tulsa Rocketry and the Pawhuska Chamber of Commerce are pleased to announce High

Frontier 20, an amateur rocket launch, which will take place at the Pawhuska Municipal Airport

on Saturday and Sunday, September 21 and 22, 2024. For the twentieth year, hobby rocketry

enthusiasts from across Oklahoma and several surrounding states will converge on Pawhuska

for two days of rocket launches, competition events, and fun. The launch is expected to be the

largest of its kind in Oklahoma.

Approximately 300 rocket flights are anticipated during the event. The rockets will be models

constructed of cardboard, plastic, wood, and composites and will range in size from small

models weighing only a few ounces to larger models weighing 20 pounds or more. Some of the

larger rockets are capable of reaching altitudes of 10,000 feet or more and can carry video

cameras, radio transmitters and other instruments aloft.

Rocket flights will start at 9:00 AM and continue until 5:00 PM on Saturday and will start at 9:00

AM on Sunday and continue until 3:30 PM. Admission is free to the public. Children under 18

can launch their rockets for free when accompanied by an adult.

Launch operations are weather dependent and will stop due to rain or high wind. We may also

cease launch operations early on Sunday due to weather or no rockets left to fly.

Closest to the Buffalo Contest

Competition events will include "Closest to the Buffalo" for kids under 18. Cash prizes of

$25/$15/$10 will be awarded at 3:30 PM each day for 1st/2nd/3rd.

Drawings for Free Rockets

Tulsa Rocketry will be giving away free rocket kits again this year to kids under 18. Each child

attending the launch receives a free ticket for the drawing. Tickets are drawn every 30 minutes

all day, both days of the event. The child holding the winning ticket receives a free rocket kit.

Sponsors

Merchants or individuals interested in sponsoring the Rocket Drawings or contests can drop off

contribution checks at the Pawhuska Chamber or can contact Tulsa Rocketry at

president@tulsarocketry.org.

More Information

Tulsa Rocketry is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The organization

consists of approximately 35 members from the Tulsa area and northeastern Oklahoma. Tulsa

Rocketry promotes the safe and educational enjoyment of hobby rocketry through their
