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.

June Launch set to 4th Weekend - June 25th-26th

DateThursday, June 16, 2005 at 7:07AM

****Revised****
The launch has been moved back to the 4th weekend, the June 25th-26th weekend. I spoke to Kip Thursday night and he has not taken the Winter Wheat out of the field yet. He expects to get it by middle of week next week.

He did let me know that Velvet (Kip's sister) has actually planted Soy Beans in on the North field so that is good news. There is a bit of bad news, his corn he planted in the south field from the road up to the creek is already up to knee to waist high. That is only a 1/4 of that front area and the way the prevailing winds are should not cause much problem. I just wanted to let you know we will have some corn to deal with.

I plan on being there this weekend to pick up some stuff from the silo for a demo.

I will try to talk a vendor in to coming next weekend, it will depend on the prior commentments.

I would also like to have our Spring-Summer Campout launch this time to, so plan on camping if you can.

One other note, due to the shourt turn-around time from Wheat and Barley to Soy-Beans we may try to have the July launch Early, maybe the 9th-10th weekend, we will decide by the next launch.

Thanks,
Ralph Roberts

Note:
If anyone is interested in renting the Farm House there at 16620 Hopewell Church Rd, it is just about ready. Mrs. Williams has been working hard on the inside to get it ready to rent. Email me and I will get you in contact with her.
