ASH GROVE LAUNCH FIELD

Tripoli Indiana would like to express our deep and sincere appreciation to Mrs. Lorrain Garrott for allowing us to use her property for a launch field. We are also indebted to the Faye Fields and Millard Plumlee families for the use of their adjoining properties for rocket recovery. The field is located in extreme northern Tippecanoe County, 3 ¾ miles South-South East of Brookston, East of Indiana State Road 43. The launch field is about 3 ½ miles North of Battle Ground.

FROM INTERSTATE-65 and INDIANA STATE ROAD 43

Go North on Indiana State Road 43 -- 3.5 miles. Turn right (East) on Tippecanoe County Road 900 NORTH – go 1.1 miles (East) into Ash Grove. Cross the railroad tracks, turn left (North) onto Harrison Road. Go 1.0 mile on Harrison Road.  Turn right (East) on Tippecanoe County Line Road North (or White County Road 1300 South) and go 3,000 feet East to the launch site.
