Semroc Astronautics Corporation: New product announcement March 1, 2008
The original Scout, designed by Vern in 1960, has been reproduced and was released as the Golden Scout by SEMROC. To participate in the “Sky of Gold” event, build your Golden Scout, paint it gold, apply the Flight Number decal, and fly it sometime during the month of July 2008 to join modelers all over the world in this celebration. The cost of the Golden Scout is $10.00 per kit and it is Catalog No. KV-4. It includes all parts, instructions, and a unique Flight Number decal. After you have flown your Golden Scout in July, go online at www.semroc.com/skyofgold/ and register your flight. You can also register your flight by email or mail. To commemorate your participation in the Sky of Gold, Vern and Gleda have graciously agreed to mail signed certificates from their home in Colorado. Vern and Gleda live in nearby Canon City and will personally take them to Penrose to receive the Penrose Postmark. The Golden Scouts will be available with Flight Numbers until July 1. Some of the lower numbers have been reserved for event planners, media, and volunteers. The Flight Numbers will be issued on a first come, first serve basis, as they are received. Ken Montanye, the "Rocket Doctor", having provided the original concept and many additional inspirations, will be working with us to help coordinate and promote this Historic event. The original proposal to have a mass launching during NARAM-50 has been set aside to allow many more individuals, sections, and clubs to participate. The web address is Http://semroc.com/skyofgold/ and additional information will be available there. Join us and be part of the "Sky Of Gold" this July to honor Vern and Gleda.
