The Team!

Hello there! Welcome to the Team Steele Model Rocketry Website. I hope you enjoy your stay and get to know our awesome team of competitors.
Katie
Katie is the middle sister. She enjoys kicking both her sisters' butts (as often as she can.)
Cassi
Cassi is the youngest sister. She also enjoys kicking her sisters' butts. We believe in family rivalry here.
Matt
Matt is The Dad. He's the one who's been doing rocketry the longest, and the whole reason anyone in the family does rocketry. He's won a few awards. ;)
Robyn
Robyn is the Team Mom, or Range Queen. She doesn't fly, but she keeps everyone fed, watered, shaded, entertained, and most importantly, sane. Her value cannot be underestimated.
Caroline (Carrie)
That's me. I won't be competing at the World Championships, but I have a few National Championships under my belt and I fly a pretty good glider. I have appointed myself Team Publicist.

Here's the whole family (minus older brother Cody and his fabulous wife Rachelle) at NARAM-51 (National Association of Rocketry Annual Meet, AKA National Championships) in 2009. Our club won the Section Championship for the 5th year in a row!

And here's some more photos from NARAM-51.

Please Donate

Katie, Cassi, and Matt have qualified to compete in Serbia for the FAI World Championships in August. But we can't make it there alone! Please donate to help us cover the costs of travel and competition.
