Tripoli Minnesota Club Launch, held the Second Saturday of the month at our field North East of North Branch MN. Setup starts at around 8:00 AM and first flights at 9:00 AM. We fly until everyone is exhausted, usually about 4:00 PM.

Tripoli Minnesota High Power Rocketry Club

We launch many rockets of all sizes from small models to the obscenely large. Some are 20 feet or more tall. Rocketry is truly a family activity for all ages. Kids (and those young at heart) are welcome to come launch on our 12 low powered launch pads, while the adults get to play with the really big and beautiful high powered birds on our 6 high power pads.

Even if you just come to watch, rocketry can be fun and even a little educational. Youth groups are welcome, but a little advanced notice is always appreciated.

Bring your sunscreen and lots to drink (no alcohol please). Come early as parking will be at a premium. There is no charge for spectators or those under 18 launching low powered rockets. You must be a Tripoli Rocket Association (TRA), a Tripoli MN club member and over 18 to launch high power.

We usually have one or more rocket equipment vendors (www.offwegorocketry.com - www.rocket-technologies.com ) and sanitary facilities available at each launch.
We also have Brian's Brats, chicken, hot dogs, chips and pop for a nominal (and quite reasonable) charge.

Setup starts at around 8:00 AM and first flights at 9:00 AM. Please consider arriving early to set up and/or staying late for clean up.
