ROCC 2024-2025 Launch Schedule:
NO launch in May due to the wheat. We hope to fly in June.
All launches are at the Midland, NC site unless otherwise stated.*
Here are some other launch opportunities in our area:
ICBM & ROSCO, better known as Rocketry South Carolina, flies near Dalzelle, SC., Just NE of Shaw AFB. More information can be gotten at their site HERE
The Saturn Rocketry Club in Hendersonville is currently switching their launch field. As soon as we know where they land we will post it. Their FB site is HERE
NC Rocketry flies at Bayboro, NC in the northeast part of the state, information is HERE
Set-up starts at about 9:30, launches commence about 10:30. Field closes about 60 min. before local dusk so we can clean up. Watch the site front page for specifics. Also visit us on FaceBook. You can also check for the FAA NOTAM at https://notams.aim.faa.gov/notamSearch/nsapp.html#/ and using KCLT (Charlotte) as the location. This will give you the starting and ending times for HP flights.
* If field is available due to crops, etc.
Hello Don, glad you had a good time! I took those pictures of your Ravenling, and you are more than welcome to use those or any others posted to this site. Send me an email and I will send you those pictures. johnbergsmith@me.com

Hello ROCC,
I wanted to thank everyone for the warm welcome to my first ROCC launch. I had a great time, joined the club, and will definitely be back. I posted a few photos I took at Sunday's launch. I want to send special thanks to Sandy for running the NAR contest, Roy and Doc for running the range, Ralph for the bratwurst and especially to Jason and his son for helping me search the woods and far fields for my lost boost glider. The slippery log across the "creek" was an adventure.
I really liked the two pictures in the gallery of my Ravenling in flight and was wondering if the owner of those pics would mind my using them for personal purposes. If yes, I would be interested in knowing if you have higher resolution versions I could have.
In a similar vein, I am writing a short article about the launch and contest for the NARHAMS club newsletter and would like to have permission to use a few of the pics to supplement the ones I took. I have put a comment on the pics I would like to use.
If the owner(s) of those pics would let me know I would be most appreciative.
Thanks again,
Don Carson
