About this event

The South Texas Rocketry Group (STRG), NAR#921, is excited to host a family-friendly rocket launch event. Everyone is welcome to attend, and participation is free of charge. Donations are gratefully accepted on-site to help cover event expenses. The facility includes indoor restrooms and an air-conditioned rest area. Please note that the recovery area is a hay field, so we recommend bringing shade, chairs, tables, and water. The FAA waiver permits launches up to 12,500 feet above ground level (AGL). If the Kingsville Military Operations Area (MOA) is active, the maximum altitude will be 8,000 feet AGL, or as directed by the Range Safety Officer (RSO). The largest motor size allowed for flights is J motors, and Sparky motors are not permitted. Flights above 2,000 feet AGL should be carefully planned to avoid losing rockets. A debriefing session may take place in Beeville immediately following the launch.
