Is there currently a club in or around T.O. I did a search but so far came up empty.
the CRC site went dark as the person taking care of it was not available.It appears that the Cambridge Rocket Club (CRC) is about the same distance away as NAPAS. The CRC's web site is off-line, though.
We are in the process of locating a new flying field. We will become fully active in Ontario again as soon as we find a suitable host. Our club embraces low medium & high power rockets. In the meantime to quench our thirst for our hobby alot of us go to Potter Field or Geneseo N.Y. a few times a year.

Also a Torontonian here who is really lacking in the launch department. I know CRC is still running over the summer at their fields and I will be doing my best to get out there and join them. Hope to see some of you there in August. Would be great to see more active clubs in the South Ontario region because there's not a lot of area out here to fly, especially in the city.
there is still time to order CTI reloads and ematches. ( low on Estes products)There is a CRC launch this coming Saturday at the Paisly rd. Guelph launch field. It is an invitational launch so all are welcome. ...

The last launch was in conjuction with the local Air Cadets, total head count possibly 30 give or take, evenly split. Every one had a great time.
The fellow that took care of the website in the past could not be contacted, though we hope to have the site back at some yet undetermined point. The CRC is doing well otherwise from what I can see.

Hey - I am definitely interested in doing some HPR in the future, but right now I am sticking to mid and low power because that's what I'm able to fly at CRC and in parks around my place. But definitely, when NAPAS starts up again I could see myself going for a cert flight.Hi Hnefi,
I am a member of NAPAS, we are about to have a meeting to discuss this very topic next week. So if you are looking for HPR then stay tuned. Hopefully as we step up our efforts we will shorten the time-line, at least that is the plan. If you are not a NAPAS member and wish to join, you can also get involved in the launch site effort as it is a club effort open to any member. If you have a lead on a launch site, regardless of your membership status or intentions, we would love to hear from you or anyone else for that matter.
As for CRC, I am not sure what is going on with the club as the website has been down for a bit and I have not heard any news in regards to any intentions. Also CRC launches were not HPR, but rather LPR-MPR. However if you're a HPR flier into MPR and LPR, or have kids, Gary had a great field and his launches made for a very nice family venue.
