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.

What a wonderful way to ring in the new year!

DateSunday, January 2, 2011 at 9:06AM

Many thanks to all who came out and helped ROCC bring in 2011 with the sound of (whoosh!) ROCKETS!

The weather held out for us fairly well, with the foig burning off and the first rocket off the pad shortly after 11:11 and then closing in about 3 pm with the predicted rain and lowering ceiling. We had a couple to punch the cloud deck and when the rain came it was the prudent thing to do to close down.

Thanks for making the trip Ken, I hope folks flocked to your doorstep and bought lots of stuff, you seemed busy all day and that's a good thing! Thanks and welcome to all the new faces, and all who renewed their memberships. I think there were about a dozen or so, plus a few from the last launch, that we'll get processed in the next week or so and get your log-ins set up.

Start planning for the 15th & 16th of January for our regular launch, weather permitting it'll be normal times and back at the farm.

Happy New Year everybody, and to all peace and prosperity in 2011.

Thanks Doc for your dedication and for planning the event. It was a great new New Years tradition. I'm ready to launch again next year. I enjoyed meeting new friends and rocketeers.

Blue skies to you all
