On June 20th, the day before Southern Thunder, an excellent group of HARA members and volunteers showed up to help these kiddos at United Cerebral Palsy (UCP) Huntsville’s summer space camp launch their paper stop rockets and their imaginations. These kiddos and their family’s cope with a variety of challenges daily, and none can be easy, but\u00a0these kiddos\u00a0have amazing attitudes.\u00a0 We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to share rocketry with them.<\/p>\n

Laura Schertz, HARA member and UCP Occupational Therapist, arranged the activity and designed the paper stomp rockets that are now available for download on the HARA website. After HARA got involved for the activity, HARA president Daniel Cavender built a pneumatic launcher that could launch three paper rockets either\u00a0one at a time or all simultaneously. The launcher is also adapted for activation by\u00a0kiddos who require the use of an assistive technology (AT) device like the jelly beamer\u00a0button.<\/p>\n
