Enjoy 4th of July at the Beach – Fly on the 5th & 6th!
The SouthEastern Virginia Rocketry Association (SEVRA) invites you to bring the whole family for a holiday weekend at Virginia Beach, VA. The region offers many places to stay, eat, visit, and enjoy (Beaches, Golf, Fishing, Military Aviation Museum, Chrysler Museum, Nauticus, Virginia Air & Space Center, Air Power Park, Busch Gardens, Historic Williamsburg and Yorktown, Shopping, and more). Watch the fireworks displays Friday night and then put on your own display Saturday and Sunday.
We will have rocketry vendors on site and food from SEVRA's CATO Cafe. We will have raffle prizes as well. The United States Navy has already approved SEVRA’s use of Fentress for the weekend. Only bad weather or an unexpected military action could interfere with Beach Blast.
Beach Blast is our way of saying Thank You to those clubs that hosted our members for the year our field was closed.
Beach Blast will be limited to 50 fliers, so please register with our Treasurer (on the SEVRA link below) as these limited slots are available on a first paid, first served basis.
Trailers may be dropped off at the flying site Friday afternoon. There is no camping on site, but camping sites are available within 15 miles.
Flying commences at 9:00am both days and continues until 6:00pm on Saturday, 4:00pm on Sunday. Saturday will be a Tripoli Research Launch with a nominal 10,000' waiver. Sunday will be a NAR Launch with a 6,000' waiver. Altitudes may be lowered at the discretion of the LCO. Our webpage will be updated more frequently as Beach Blast approaches.
