MCHS "Rockin Rockets" Competition
Moffat County High School student Kylee Gorringe, right-center, prepares to launch her rocket Friday during the MCHS science department’s “Rockin Rockets” competition. The event got off to a slow start, but once students and teachers worked out the kinks, rockets were flying in rapid succession.

In Harvey’s hands is not an extra long roll of gift wrap, but her rocket for the competition. Standing at more than five feet tall it was the largest rocket launched on Friday.
Dozens of MCHS students watch the “Rockin Rockets” competition from the north hill. Many students turned out for the seventh period competition and stayed through its entirety despite the fact that the last rocket did not launch until long after the final bell.
