Membership Overview:

Membership to MARS is open to all adults, families and children who are interested in the hobby and/or science of rockets.  We are a family oriented club that encourages activities in all aspects of the hobby.  Our members include people who have been flying rockets for less than a year and more than 60.  We enjoy low power to high power rockets and everything in between. MARS is the club for you if you want to: re-live your childhood and fly those classic Estes models again, go big and fly N powered monsters, learn about using the latest electronics for deployment and tracking, all while flying with a family friendly group!

  • Access to club launch weekends with no per-weekend flying fees. (excludes NYPOWER)

  • Loaner motor hardware for high power certification or other flights.
  • Opportunity to give back by helping with NYPOWER, the premier regional event in the country.
  • Membership card is a name badge to wear at every launch.  Easy to meet everyone in the club!

Membership Dues:

MARS always strives to keep membership dues as low as possible.  Your dues are used for the clubs costs to provide launches.  Our largest expenses are providing comfort facilities and our donation to the National Warplane Museum in appreciation of being allowed to use the magnificent Geneseo field.  Children always fly free at MARS launches.  If you as a parent wish to fly your own rockets or you wish to attend regularly we ask you join to help support our costs.

Single Adult Members: $30 per year – Kids are always FREE, please list their names so we can make them name badges.

Additional Adult members: (Immediate Family): $10 per year.

Memberships run for the calendar year.
