Upcoming Launch Schedule

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.

Discussion > Very sad news regarding Semroc and Carl McLawhorn

Folks
Didn't know if everyone had heard about Carl, owner of Semroc up here in Wendel NC. Carl had to go in to the hospital last Monday night (August 12) for emergency surgery (aneurysm in his aorta) and died on the table. He helped out with the Cub and Boy Scouts in this area for many years. Plus played a important role in the hobby, NAR and TARC for many years. He will be missed by many!
Please keep his wife Sheryl and son Bruce in your thoughts.

I hated to hear this news, I spoke to him in late July. Very nice guy, and did a lot of great things for the hobby.
