Hi all,

The recent Artemis II mission got my kid (and me) interested in acquiring and launching our own model rocket. I did them as a kid with my dad, and IIRC we used to be able to get the stuff at department stores, but this seems to no longer be the case. I'm looking for two things:

-Are there any hobby stores around that might have model rocket kits and accessories?

-Are there any locations around where it's definitely ok to launch?

I've been in the area awhile, and I know where there's some nice open areas, but to save myself some trouble I am just curious if anybody here has any insight.
