Fellow ROC members, rocket flyers and volunteers,
This Saturday 9th August is our next launch at our normal launch site on Lucerne Dry Lake, Lucerne Valley, CA. Please come and sign up to volunteer when you arrive, it is particularly important at the summer launches as all the volunteers who make the launches possible need a break from the sun/heat.
For any one that needs it we will be setting up the Super Uber pad.
Directions and other details can be found on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/events/1509117495970294/ or our website https://rocstock.org/site/
Weather forecast for Lucerne Valley is dry, clear and hot with a high of 93F on Saturday. For those camping out the Friday low is 65F and Saturday low of 65F. As those of you who attended before this is just an indication and the lake bed has its own special climate! My source of weather is https://tinyurl.com/lmbjtzk
As always the wind is forecast to be lighter first thing in the morning increasing strength during the morning, we always recommend you arrive early ready to fly.
Discount Rocketry and Bay Area Rocketry are expected at the launch and I believe that Two guys and a Grille to be selling food. Lucerne Valley Market has almost anything else you will need for a day/night on the lake bed. Whats up hobbies will not be attending this months launch.
Both NAR and Tripoli certifications can be conducted for those interested.
We are always looking for volunteers to help in all aspects of the launch and its a great way to learn and make friends with the ROC family. Please come to the registration desk and let us know you want to help.
*** GENERAL INFO ***
Non-member daily launch fee is $15 and the paid-up member fee is $5. Everybody needs to register and get a wrist band to fly. All participants and spectators need to sign a liability waiver. Please be aware of the requirement to follow all safety rules and procedures while attending the launch, and make sure that children are supervised by a responsible adult at all times. Overnight camping is allowed as usual, but be sure to keep all campfires in above-ground containers to comply with BLM rules, and pack your ashes and wood debris out with you when you leave. Let's always try to leave the playa a little cleaner than we found it. Portable toilets should be delivered on site by Friday to support overnight campers and setup.
Again this weekend we are trialing our Sunday members only launch and a number of members will be staying Saturday night and flying first thing Sunday morning.
We look forward to seeing new and existing members and having a safe and fun weekend of rocketry.
