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 is GO for this Weekend, the fields are clear!!

Here is the latest, the Winter Wheat is cut, I spoke to Kip tonight (June 22nd).
We will setup just beyond the ditch in the middle, at 12:00 Noon Saturday
There is some waist high corn along the southern fields tree line. With southerly breezes it should not present a problem.
There is still some 6" of Barley stalks that are dry and lying on the ground, we will have watch for fires if a rocket comes in under power.

Juluis Burris has agreed to run the Grill for us Saturday. We need a head count if you are planning on eating either Hog Dogs or Hamburgers. Please RSVP to RoccPrez@prodigy.net by Friday Noon so we can get enough goodies.

Also let me know if you will be camping if you can.

Ken Allen, with Performance hobbies will be at the Whitiker�s Launch this weekend, they are have there sport launch. I am still waiting on a response from Larry Smith at Rocket Science. I' keep you posted.

I am trying to get a Porta-John in there, will let you know by tomorrow.

More to come stay tuned.
