Picture Archive is Now Up!

After a very long time of looking for a suitable program to display images en masse, I finally found the right one! With gallery, one can look at photos in various resolutions and post comments about photos!

With great pleasure, I invite you to go take a look at some of the photos now available! I will be adding more as time goes one, and very soon I'll have a very easy way for anyone to upload photos of their own that they'd like to see in the photo gallery!

Hope you like 'em!

HabFiles Update!

Once apon a time, Space Camp had some great QuickTimeVR files of various locals throughout camp on their webiste. It seems as if they have been removed from the site (probably some time ago) as I have been unable to find them on the site.

Since Space Camp no longer seems to want to post them, I've posted them
here in the HabFiles for all to see!

Enjoy!

Register for a Summer Program NOW!

Remember when I mentioned that camp prices had gone up again this year? Well, if you register before April 15, 2002 for any summer camp (Space Camp, Space Academy programs, Aviation Challenge) and get $100 off the price of tuition!

From
www.spacecamp.com:

Starting March 15, 2002 through April 15, 2002 we are offering $100 savings on prime summer season weeklong Space Camp and Aviation Challenge tuitions in celebration of 20 Years of Space Camp. You must pay in full when you register. This special offer is available at our Alabama and Florida locations.
Offer ends April 15, 2002.

To take advantage of this special offer one can register online, or call 1-800-63 SPACE today and reference source code ANW02.


The fine print on the offer is as follows:

** Not to be used in conjunction with any other offers, discounts or promotions.
** This discount cannot be applied toward reservations made prior to this promotion.
** Educator Programs and Groups are not eligible for this special offer.

If you were thinking about holding off a little longer (or still are)...DON'T! With this discount out there, I'm sure there will be many, many people registering for summer sessions so they're going to fill up fast! Call soon to make your reservation!

R.I.P. Space Camp California

I had heard a little while ago that Space Camp California had applied for some sort of grant in an effort to remain operational...beyond that I had heard no other details.

Now though, it appears they did not receive their funding...Space Camp California appears to be no more. Though if you happen to have $2 million sitting around, you could still save it...

ASA for SIX DAYS!

I was just at SpaceCamp's web site and was reading...and reading...and...

Anyway, I saw that, this summer, "From May 25 through August 23 all program sessions begin on Saturday and end on Friday."

This is an amazing chance to not only get more bang for your buck, but to enjoy another day at camp!

If you were thinking about booking an ASA session for this summer, do it NOW! They've been known to fill up fast...but with six days instead of five, I think spots will fill up even faster!

...Ah...this reminds me of when ASA (previously Space Academy Level II) used to be 8 days! While 6 still isn't as good as 8, it's moving in the right direction!

update: I also just noticed that the price for a summer session has gone up again from $899 to $999. This of course is bad, but still worth it...but, just once, I'd like to see the price of camp go down from the previous year...but it's still worth it...
