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.

NAR Sport Launch, O'burg May 24-26

DateFriday, March 21, 2008 at 11:04AM

(Bumped to top of list)
ROCC Members - one of the largest NAR launches of the year is coming to Orangeburg, SC on Memorial Day weekend - National Sport Launch 2008. For those new to the Hobby, this is really a special event. Flyers from all over the country will attend this launch and will fly everything from 1/2 A's to N motors.

PLEASE, we need volunteers to help with range duties and general goings-on... please hit the "Read More" button...

This is a 3 day launch starting Saturday 24 at 10:00 AM and going through 3:00 PM Monday (including a night launch on Sat). O'burg has a 10,000 ft waiver - so plenty of room to fly just about anything you want.

There is more details at this website - http://www.nsl2008.org/

Our Orangeburg Partners (ROSCO) need our help. Not only should we attend and fly - but they need some Volunteers to assist with the launch - from set up to tear down. I was also thinking that maybe we could assemble a team to head up Range Duty for 2 shifts - one on Sunday and one on Monday. A shift is 2 hours - so we can either split it up or we can just pull the 2 - 2 hours shifts. Those that vounteer and do both shifts will get a special NSL 2008 Tee Shirt. We need at least 5 people for Range Duty - 2 people to act as Range Safety Officers - inspecting rockets, 1 Pad Manager and 1 Launch Control Officer and 1 Asst. LCO.

Please come and see me at the launch this weekend or send me an e-mail if you are interested - tharing1@yahoo.com.

Thanks

Todd Haring
