We have a rocketry home for you!
Becky and I attended the MWRC hosted by WOOSH at BONG this last weekend.
I finished my last two NRC competition events and moved into 8th place on the NRC all-around list (I’m sure that won’t last for long)
Becky moved in to first place in the A-division A-payload on the NRC scoreboard with a new NAR A-payload record. She followed up by setting new records in the B-payload, C-payload, and D-payload events as well! She is also in first place in the NRC A-division all-around. Way to go Bec!
Welcome to the Fox Valley Rocketeers, a group of model rocketeers in the Fox Valley suburbs of Northern Illinois. Our membership is roughly centered in McHenry and Lake County but we have flyers from all over Chicagoland.
Our meetings and launches are free and open to the public.
Launches: We fly from April through November at two launch sites near Woodstock, IL. Due to the pandemic, you will need to bring your own launch equipment to the field.. From December to March, we host building sessions and take field trips to places of interest.
Meetings: Our meetings are the first Monday of every month on Zoom. Click here to join our mailing list if you want to receive the Zoom link to attend the meeting.
