Apogee's Rocket Contest Program

Win $300 in Apogee Components' merchandise for your educational program!

The purpose of the Apogee Rocket Constest is to support organizations and groups that use rocketry to educate and motivate students by providing contest money that can be used to purchase rocket kits and building supplies from Apogee Components.


This is a yearly constest program, so if you don't win the rocketry contest this time, you are still eligible to win it next year. We encourage you to enter every year!

The NEW Rules:

1. Entrants must submit a YouTube.com video explaining why they love Apogee Components and why they buy our products. Please keep the videos short, under 2 minutes long. Our favorite video will be chosen as the winner!

2. The deadline for entry is November 30th of each year. That means your video must be posted on YouTube.com by midnight of November 30. After you post your video, send us an email to let us know where to find your new video.

3. The contest winner will be announced on January 1st of each year.

4. The $300 constest winnings will be awarded to one recipient and can be used only to purchase merchandise from Apogee Components.

5. To be eligible, your group must be a registered non-profit organization such as a school, scout group, or rocketry club. (A tax ID number will be required to prove you are registered).

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Last year, this was a "grant" program. Why did you change it to a "contest" this year?

A. It always was a contest, since there was only one winner of the money. I suppose it is just a matter of semantics.


Q. This seems very self-serving of Apogee. You should turn it back into a grant program.

A. Basically, the rules haven't changed much from previous contests. Only the format of the submission has changed. In the past, one of the criteria we used to pick the winner was the answer to the question "how will this help Apogee spread the news about our company?" To be honest, that was the main criteria we were looking at when evaluating the entries. We felt that we should be more open with you about our motives.
