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.

Build session Meeting 8/26 @ 12:00 Noon

Everyone:

Our August meeting and building session will be at Doc Russells' office/warehouse located at 645 Pressley Road, suite G. This is off South Tryon st. just north of the Woodlawn Rd./Billy Graham intersection. If you head up Pressley rd. from South Tryon, you'll pass over I-77, then there will be a sharp rt. hand bend in the road. At the bend, on the left, there is a sign for Pressley Park. We're in the middle of the second long building in the park. Here's a link to a map/photo that'll help.


We will start at 12:00pm with "meet and greet" and setup of the swap meet, with the first build session at 12:30pm. Official ROCC Meeting at 1:00pm. With more Build sessions after. Based on the interest of the attendees, we will adapt our build sessions from there. Noted build sessions will include making tubes and nose cones, contest models, altimeter bays, parachutes.

I would encourage all to attend, as we can discuss items in a more controlled environment than at a launch.

Any questions, call or email Ralph Roberts roccprez@bellsouth.net or 704-560-0147.

Thanks,
Ralph Roberts
