Thursday, January 15th: Build your Model Rocket with Engineers
Discover the dynamics of rocketry with engineers from UCI! This exciting build will happen on the UCI campus! Engineers will show girls how to build their rockets, talk about the rocket launch process, and discuss the science behind rocket flight.
Saturday, January 17th: Blast Off! Model Rocket Launch
Join us for a rocket launch at the Wild Rivers Parking Lot in Irvine! Girl Scouts and their families will cheer each other on during this exciting launch.
Please note: The rocket launch is wind and weather permitting and will not be rescheduled in the event of cancellation. This is not a drop-off event, and adults will need to stay with their Girl Scout at all times. Families are permitted to attend the Launch, but we ask that only one adult accompany the Girl Scout to UCI for the build.
