If you lost anything, and I do mean anything, please contact Mike Dutch or I. You can reach us by sending us a Private message here, posting in this thread, or via the PYRO site as many of you have done already.

Things returned:

Whole, rockets ranging from several feet and dual-deploy to sharipe size on a 1/4A.
Partial rockets
Parachutes
Fins
Boosters
Transponders
Altimeters
Glasses (sun and perscription)
and a whole slew of other parts.

I have photos available of our current Lost and Found. To ease the proces give us the best decription you can and we'll send you a picture of the closest match if there is one. :-) If there isn't we'll log your missing 'whatever' and keep an eye out for it in the future. As Dutch stated elsewhere, the local farmers and residents are always bringing stuff to return to us.

Thanks for the return of the Goblin.

We still have a 75/5120 case that is still MIA.

I now have a photo of some rockets that were given to me by the farmer and a couple Menonite boys posted onto our PYRO website under the community forums link in the LDRS "lost and Found" header. Please go to our website at www.pyro.ws and follow the directions with the photo to get your rocket back if one of them is yours.

Thanks for the opportunity to look at photo of lost stuff. However, is there any other way to see it without signing up for another forum I won't need again???

What you are signing up for is the right to completely view our website, not for a forum mailing list. The only way you would receive anything from this website is as a reply from something you posted on our forum.

I will not be posting these photos anywhere but on our site so it would be worth it to sign up and prove to us that you are not a spamming robot, that is all the signing up is really for.

You may also want to sign up on our website as we may be thinking about another LDRS in the future, maybe.

Glad to hear that you guys are thinking about hosting LDRS again. Having it on the east coast was still a long drive, but nowhere as far as the western launch sites would be. You guys did a great job of making everyone feel welcome and we had a great time. I hope to make the trek again sometime.

The only thing I could ask is to do without the rain next time!

This is a picture of the front that moved in on July 1st at 3:33pm. I managed to snap it driving home in the van. This was the day before LDRS 28 opened. It was the third wave of rain that day.

I have a few more rockets that were found by the farmer during the harvest. One is in perfect condition and ready to fly (~5.5' and green). A second needs a payload section (Stars and stripes ~1'). A couple nose cones were found, a small parachute, and one complete silver rocket that seems to have an Aerotech SU motor, but was driven over by a tractor so only the chute and cone survived. If anyone is missing a rocket fitting any of those descriptions, please contact me. I can be PM'd here or through via the webmaster at www.pyro.ws.
