July 01 to 03, 2011

The Lethbridge Rocketry Association (LRA) and the Canadian Association of Rocketry (CAR) along with Tripoli Alberta are inviting everyone to the largest launch in Canada. This event has grown to be one of the highest and biggest launches in North America. Be advised that the launch will be held using the CAR rules/guidelines, only NRCan ERD approved motors or other authorized motors will be allowed.

2005 saw the arrival of LDRS. This launch is the largest in the world and was held for the first time outside of the United States. Roc Lake is held on the same location and promises to be the same, if not better, than LDRS.

This 3-day event will be held from July 01 to 3rd. The location is Southern Alberta, just north of the Montana Canadian border. The area contains a wealth of culture and unique scenery.

Take a look around the web site using the menu on the left and above. Rock Lake 13 will be a CAR-ACF launch and as such all fliers will have to be members of CAR-ACF. The new CAR-ACF insurance policy does not allow for dual sanctioned launches.

We are requesting that anyone that is thinking of having a project that will exceed 25,000 Ft to contact us very soon so we can ensure we apply for the proper windows.

Who Can AttendAnyone of all ages are free to attend during the 3 days. There are no fees for spectating. If you want to see what the hype is all about, all you need to do is bring some lawn chairs and follow the map to the launch site. Once there, you can mingle among the fliers, take a look at rockets, snap photos, and learn about our great hobby.

There will even be rocket kits available for purchase on site from a variety of vendors if you do get hooked.

If you wish to fly any rockets, you must register (costs to the left) and be a member of the Canadian Association of Rocketry . Model rockets do not require CAR membership.

Who Can FlyAny fliers are welcome to show off their skills. However, due to insurance purposes, you must be a member in good standing with the Canadian Association of Rocketry (CAR). To fly, you must also register for Roc Lake.
