They're
going to be hiring for the summer, of course! And
what could be better than being at Space better Camp?
Getting paid to be at Space Camp?!
Having emailed the HR department, I've been told that applications should be in no later than the "end of March" and that, if hired, one would be starting on or around the 19th of May.
So if you're interested, get those applications in fairly soon! I'm sure going to! And don't just think you need to be from the United States to get a job. I know they've had workers form other coutries in the past, and there will no doubt be more in the future. Be one of them!
...and if you'll need a place to crash, they can even arrange that too!

Space Camp gets Endeavor

err...sorta.
Posted at a local Illinois news station, WAND TV, an article states:
This year, 65,000 brand new Endeavor sport utility vehicles will hit the road throughout the U.S.and every one of them will be made in Central Illinois.
Friday, January 17th, the very first Endeavor rolled off the assembly line at the Mitsubishi motors company in Bloomington-Normal.
The new model has helped the local Mitsubishi plant expand it's workforce from 3,000 to 3,200 employees.
"It's a validation. It's a validation of the outstanding workforce in Bloomington Normal," says Mitsubishi's North American president, Richard Gilliagan.
The first Endeavor produced was given to the NASA space camp in Huntsville, Alabama.
Astronaut Mark Lee, who was commander of the first Endeavor space shuttle mission was on hand to accept the it.
While I don't quite get it, I guess Space Camp has a new vehicle...so, that's...nice!

A Christmas Camper makes the News

Given
the small influx to the site of Space Campers from
the recently concluded Christmas session, I thought
it might be of some interest to them especially to
learn that one of their own made her local paper!
Stephanie Iatrow's experience received a mention in Tuesday's edition of the Livingston County Daily Press & Argus. Entitled, "Local student survives Space Camp," the piece covers Stephanie's time at Camp, which she had won a scholarship to attend!
Congratulations, Stephanie! I hope you enjoyed your time at ASA!

Contests
Space Camp,
along with
Kellogg's and
BackYard Burgers are
currently running a promotion to win a trip to
Space Camp! In total, 5 trips will be given out,

being given out (really, you do)!
The website is here and you can enter here. When asked for a source code, either enter the code you got when you ordered a "Back Yard Burgers Bak-Pak Kid's Meal bag" or save yourself some time and money and just enter: BYB02.
Official Rules can be found here. Contest is open to United States residents between the ages of 4 and 18 only.
Good Luck! And remember, if you win, you have to come back here and brag about it!

New HabPoll Added
Monday, January 06, 2003 Filed in: Hab1 News
I'm
curious as to what everyone thinks of the current
changes going on at Space Camp (program
modifications, Training Center Floor changes, etc.)
so I've started a new poll that asks just
that.
Happy New Year!

Oh well...I hope your new year starts off well nonetheless...
