For
thirteen years FlisKits has worked hard to bring you
unmatched creativity, fun and excitement in your
rocketry activities. We are proud on this and, as
has become tradition around here, we're going to
celebrate it! But we can not celebrate without
your help and involvement!
Unfortunately, we are
less one VIR (Very Important Rocketeer) from the cheerleading
squad. Namely Bill Spadafora, close friend
and, frankly, part of the family. We lost Bill in
this past summer and rocketry will never be the same as a
result. The personal loss is also simply too great
to discuss. He will be missed. We salute
you, Bill and hope you take a moment to join us on the
field in September as we celebrate our newest
anniversary while also celebrating your contributions to
us all.
For the entire month of
September, FlisKits invites you save money and earn
chances at winning some wonderful prizes! To get
us started, here is the list of events and activities
that will make the month of September special for us
and, we hope, for you as well:
- Free domestic shipping on all
orders over $20 (See note 1 below)
- Drawing for a free kit
every Friday! (No purchase necessary, see details
below)
- Drawing for a
$75 gift certificate at the end of the month! (No purchase

FlisKits Free
Anniversary Raffle!
Every year we look for
different and fun things to do for our anniversary
celebration and tend to lean towards those events that
seem to work well. The idea of a raffle is one
of them, so we are continuing this fun and exciting
tradition. Here are the rules:
- First, you have to
earn/get chances to win. This is very easy:
- Send a Happy
Birthday greeting to FlisKits for one
free chance! (limit one per person)
- Make a purchase
and receive one chance for every $10 spent!
(Not including shipping)
- Invite a
new customer (Note 2 below) to make their
first purchase at FlisKits and you and the new
customer will BOTH get the chances that order
earns!
- Next (this is the
easy part), you wait to see if you win! Here
is how the winners will be selected and what the
prizes are:
- Each Friday, at
or near midnight, a random ticket (chance)
will be selected as the winner for that
drawing.
- PRIZE:
Friday winners will win their choice of
ANY kit on our web site with a (get this) MINIMUM
of $20 value (see Note 3).
- At the end of
the month (September 30th) at midnight, a
final drawing will be randomly selected.
- PRIZE:
$75 gift certificate!
- Last (this may be
the hard part), you have to select the kit you want
and let us know. Don't forget to read the
notes below as they contain some important
information. Good stuff though!
NOTE 2: A
"new customer" is one who has never placed
an order with FlisKits. If you have purchase
FlisKits products at shows or hobby shops or from
other rocketeers, you are still eligible. Be
sure to have a sponsor (existing FlisKits customer) to
help them earn chances too!
NOTE 3: When you
select your kit prize, if you select a kit that has a
value of less than $20 you are free to select
additional kits until the total price exceeds
$20.00. For example, you could select a Flea
($9.95) and a Long OverDue ($15.95) as your prize.

ANNIVERSARY LAUNCH!
Our annual anniversary
launch has become the stuff of legends! You
really have to find a way to make it out. Our
customers and fellow CMASS members go out of
their way to help make this a celebration to
remember, year after wonderful year. We also
have the addition of celebrating the life of Bill
Spadafora and all that
this means to the rocketry community. If ever
you were to travel to attend a sport launch, THIS is
the launch to attend!
FlisKits will be
announcing a new kit, will have prizes and
awards. Fly your FlisKits models and maybe win a
prize for the most flown!
Enjoy our Anniversary
cake, a tradition that the folks at CMASS await each
and every year. Come on down and find out why!
Bottom line is, come on
out for the fun, the excitement and the enjoyment of
flying rockets (up to K impulse) with some of the best
rocketeers on the planet!
