Meetings

CORSA is resuming in-person meetings at 7:00 every second Tuesday of the month at the Otterbein University Physics Department, in their new facility, The Point at Otterbein. 

Otterbein University Physics Department
The Point – Room 139
60 Collegeview Rd
Westerville, Ohio 43081

If weather preempts a meeting, we will resort to an online meeting. If you wish to participate, email any member, or “info” or “director” @centralohiorocketry.org to request the meeting link.

Launches

CORSA now has two launch sites, Freedom Park in Sunbury, and Jackson Farms, near Center Village. The Jackson Farms site is available only when the fields are not planted – late fall, winter, and early spring. Our launch announcements will indicate the location we’ll use.

Freedom Park is a great site for small model rockets, accommodating up to “D” motors on calm days. Jackson Farms provides us with enough room for Mid Power (MPR) launches, up to “G” motors.

Our regular monthly launches are scheduled for the third Saturday each month, weather permitting. Any weather cancellation or postponement will be announced on this website the evening before the scheduled launch.
Bring your rocket and fly with us, or just stop by to watch! We’ll have experienced rocketeers on hand to answer questions, offer guidance, and demonstrate safe rocketry. We’ll supply the launch equipment, and might be able to offer motors for you to use. We can inspect your rocket, and help you prepare it for flight. If it needs repair, we can offer tips, and possibly even help repair it on the spot. We typically start flying at 11:00, and wrap up by about 2:00, but check our website for any schedule updates.

We are also working to secure a High Power Rocketry (HPR) launch site. If you own or know of a field with a 1,500′ radius or more of open space, at least 5 miles from any airport, contact us. We’d like the opportunity to discuss how you can help support High Power Rocketry, and the liability insurance available at no cost to the landowner.
