You can do your part by volunteering your time, hands, or equipment (trucks and drivers especially needed), donating (money, food/water, or services), or ordering lots of mulch for your landscape and garden.

Raise the Rocket Campaign
For many years, Richard Montgomery High School proudly exhibited our ROCKET mascot in front of the old school. To make room for the new school, our rocket (an actual 1950's era Nike Ajax missile) was deinstalled and stored. Three years later, the RM Boosters (with help from the kind folks at the Gaithersburg High School auto shop) had our rocket cleaned and repainted.
Due to the generosity of our donors, RM's Rocket was unveiled on November 6 at the RM homecoming game.
Thank you for helping us to restore this important symbol to our community!
Major funding for the installation of the RM Rocket was provided by generous donations from
the following individuals and organizations.
The Kitzinger Family
RM Athletic Booster Club
Dr. Ignacio and Joan Rodriguez
Richard Montgomery High School
RMHS Cluster Educational Foundation
RMHS Class of 1973
(who offer a challenge to the other alumni classes
to support RMHS and keep school spirit high) |
The RM Athletic Booster Club would also like to give a special thank-you to the following:
- Standard Supply Company of Gaithersburg for providing the fabrication and steel for the
Rocket.
- RM parent Gary Strand, P.E. for providing structural drawings and invaluable assistance in
the installation process.
- The DIGITS! (Rockville's Rock Band) and Austin Grill in Town Center for hosting the Raise the
Rocket fundraiser on September 26, 2009. Thanks to all who contributed.
- Former RM PTSA President Linda Stern-Siegel and her family for storing the Rocket in their
garage.
- RM parent Tim Jones for providing his flatbed trailer and volunteering to help transport the
Rocket.
- Gaithersburg High School's auto shop, at the direction of Mike Horton for cleaning and
painting the Rocket.
