NARAM is the Annual Meet of the National Association of Rocketry (NAR). It is the national contest culminating the rocket contest year, and also includes fun, or "sport," flying of model rockets for those who don't wish to compete. The NAR is the governing body for the sport/hobby of model rocketry in the United States. NARAM is traditionally held the first week of August.
The first NARAM was held in Denver, Colorado, in 1959 hosted by the Mile-HI section (#1). G. Harry Stine served as the contest director. NARAM-2 was hosted by the Peak City Section (#2) in Colorado Springs and the CD was William S. Roe, a co-founder of the NAR. Fifty years later, NARAM-50 was held at Great Meadow in The Plains, Virginia. NARAM-52, in Pueblo, CO was a tribute to William S. Roe.
Here is a list of NARAMs by year and location and who was the contest director:
