ROCK (Rockertry of Orlando's Community Kids) Launch Day

  • When: Saturday, August 2, 2025,  9:30 am

ROCK (“Rocketry of Orlando’s Community Kids”) is an Orlando-based model rocket club which encourages children and adults to embrace the exciting, fun, safe, and educational hobby of sport rocketry. The “Kids” in our name refers to “children of all ages” (kids and adults) who enjoy building and flying model rockets.

If the status is "Hold" please check this website the morning of the launch before leaving. Our club has its own launch pads and controllers, so there is no need to bring yours. But do bring chairs, water, snacks, sunscreen, shade if you have it, and your rockets and rocketry supplies. We don't charge a launch fee, but we do have to collect $2 for each person over the age of six. This fee is required by the state for the use of the park. We don't not require participants to pay our club dues in order to participate, but we do appreciate your support of the club. We usually start setting up at 9:00am at our launch site so that we can start flying around 10:00. We continue launching until the early afternoon. In the summer, we will sometimes start earlier so that we can end before it gets too hot or thunder showers move in. Please check our Facebook group for accurate start times.

There are no restrooms at the launch site, but several restaurants and gas stations are located just a few miles away on Lockwood Blvd.
