We could not be more grateful for the engagement and support from club members, families, and alumni at our end-of-year showcase! While revealing our Pacific Impulse Rocket, subteam leaders had the opportunity to highlight achievements from the current academic year while also diving in-depth into the future of SARP as an organization. With our mission statement being space by 2025, we hope to lay the foundation for current and future club members to achieve that goal. Having the opportunity to not only celebrate the accomplishments made by the club but also set out goals for the future is what truly made this showcase special. Thank you to all who have supported us through the academic year!
