LAS VEGAS, Nevada USA -- The Gates Bros. are pleased to announce they recently purchased the rights to the Rocketsilo name and website. "We perceived that Rocketsilo was a well respected consumer rocket business and we were just as shocked as everyone else when Steven Moore posted his going out of business sale" stated Erik Gates.
While not buying the old Rocketsilo business in total, the Gates Bros. intend to continue the spirit of the business by naming the new enterprise Rocketsilo 2.0. "This portrays a new beginning with new ownership and management" said Erik Gates. We intend to make Rocketsilo even better than before. It will carry more product and have an even better web presence. Special relationships are being formed with a number of rocket industry manufacturers and suppliers to bring the customer new and exciting products. The RocketSilo motto is "for rocket lovers by rocket lovers" stated Erik Gates.
Secondly, the Gates Bros. are pleased to announce they have teamed up with the Pretto Bros., another rocket brother team that brought the public the first live internet web broadcast from inside a rocket. The Prettos will be active participants in Rocketsilo 2.0. "We found out that while we were pursuing the Rocketsilo brand, the Prettos were also intending to start a new entity involved with rocketry" stated Erik Gates. "It only took one phone call to realize that we should combine forces under the new Rocketsilo 2.0 name."
Rocketsilo intends on carrying a full line of rocket kits and motor systems from the best companies available today including AeroTech, Public Missiles, Rocketman, Dr. Rocket, Aeropack, Top Flight, BSD, Blacksky Research, and many more. Our intention is to be the customer's one stop rocket shop!
Look for Rocketsilo 2.0 to attend a number of upcoming launches like Rocstock in Lucerne, CA and Turkey Shoot outside of Las Vegas, NV. "We are going to make every attempt to be at those launches" stated Chuck Pretto. "We are working diligently to get all of our ducks in order to be at those launches." Look for the RocketSilo 2.0 webstore and official launch and grand opening to be January 1, 2002. |
