Here are some online resources that they may find
helpful:

www.info-central.org lots of general rocketry
information, tends to focus on the higher power side
of things.

www.estesrockets.com/Rocket_Library1046.html has a
collection of introductory documents and technical
information about rockets

www.apogeerockets.com great rocketry vendor, sells
RockSim software, parts, kits.  Laso has free
information and a rocketry newsletter on teh site.

www.balsamachining.com company that sells rocket
building materials.  Will custuom turn nose cones and
transitions, make centering rings, fins and other
parts.  Very good vendor with great service.

www.rocketryforum.com a posting board for all sorts of
rocktry information.  Searching the archives and
posting questions will yeild lots of information.

groups.yahoo.com/group/NARTARC a yahoo group set up by
the TARC to provide a place for competitors to ask
questions.  Has an archive of questions asked for the
last 2 contests.

www.wrasp.com site for a free rocket simulation
program.  Not quite as powerful as RockSim, but will
give enough information to allow the kids to do the
math to find descent rates and calculate time aloft.

myweb.cableone.net/cjcrowell/VCPMAIN.htm Virtual
Center of Pressure software.  Another free simulation
software.

Hope this helps.
