"BALLS is THE premier Experimental Rocket Launch in the Continental US."

See http://www.balls19.com/ for more information.

"This will be the 18th year BALLS will be held in the Black Rock Desert, North of Reno, near Gerlach, Nevada. It brings dedicated rocketry enthusiasts devoted to the leading edge of non-professional rocketry activities together for the best demonstration of experimental motor design using today's best technologies and probably the largest nonprofessional rockets seen anywhere."
