A spokesperson said: “The excitement mounted as everyone went into the park for the launching of each rocket and the height it reached was carefully recorded. The winning rocket (height 188’) belonged to Sam Wallhead.”

Jim Stavely of Greener Spaces Limited provided expert tuition and all the materials for the exciting venture.

Greenlands TARA was formed in 2004 and works hard to improve the area in and around Greenlands Park.
