Tripoli Las Vegas Nevada has had numerous launches at Jean.... Perhaps you
could join with them or visit the dry lake on a weekend they are not
meeting. I know some of your members have gone there for launches.
I saw recently that the draconian lockdown edicts from our governor have
been overturned... perhaps there is a loosening of the bonds coming
soon!!!! I'm in LA county and the restrictions are less if it's an outdoor
event. My Remote Control Airplane clubs are all flying with a
"recommendation" for covering but not a requirement.
Gregg Stockdale --- I was all set to join ROC until Covid hit and I've
been visiting the Jean launch site. I'm in San Dimas, so your club is much
closer to me.

ROC Members,
The ROC Board has been actively looking into possible ways for us to
legally host a launch. Like all of you, we want to get back to smelling AP
and enjoy the camaraderie of our rocket friends. With safety being a core
value of rocketry, compliance with stated rules and regulations are
fundamental. The guidance from San Bernardino County is that no group
gatherings are permitted for more than three family households. No obvious
exceptions.
The purpose of this note is to reach out to our membership to see if
someone has an expertise in this area to help find a way to comply with the
rules and hold a launch. Should you have some ideas please feel free to
reach to any one of the current Board members and pass along your ideas. In
the meantime we will all diligently watch the latest guidance provided by
the county.
