HabFiles Update: Space World Magazine - February 1983
Sunday, June 24, 2007 Filed in: Hab1 News
I know it's been a little while since the HabFiles section has seen
an update, but it's my hope that this one will
make it seem like the wait was worth it.
Present now in the HabFiles section is a article from Space World magazine that was published in February of 1983. Space Camp only had one year of campers under its belt!
Head on over and check it out.
From the article:
The 1983 camp will take the program another step further. Last year, much of the in-house activities took place in a renovated refreshment stand. This year as many as 150 campers and four on-site camp instructors will be housed in the basement of a12,500 square-foot pavilion brought from the Knoxville World's Fair.
The article then goes on to break out day-by-day activities during Space Camp circa 1983!
Enjoy!

MSFC Tours - One Sticking Point
Friday, June 22, 2007 Filed in: Space
& Rocket Center News
To provide an update regarding the post about MSFC
tours resuming, it seems that there is one sticking
point holding up tours.
It seems Marshall doesn't want Space Camp to use busses that aren't able to comply with the Americans with Disabilities act and the Space Center doesn't currently have any that do.
So until the Space Camp can get a few busses that meet the ADA (or retrofit current ones....if that's possible), the tours will be a no go.
So it may be a little while.

Revision Three
Wednesday, June 20, 2007 Filed in: Hab1 News
Welcome to the third revision of Hab1.com! With such
a momentous occasion as the 25th Anniversary of Space
Camp, I thought the site could do to have a few more
pretties on it!
This is (more-or-less) the third revision of the site! I hope everyone enjoys the new look and feel!
For a quick history lesson, version one of the site ran from 2001 to 2005 (going through a few minor changes along the way) while version two lasted from May 2005 until now.
I think this is the best version yet! And yet, I hope this is only a temporary release to get through the next few years as I work on revision four. But I'm getting ahead of myself.
As you can no doubt see, things look a bit different around here.
There are all kinds of new, shiny things around here.
It is my hope that you enjoy this version of the site very much!
Thank you for visiting.

I Love Space Camp
Saturday, June 16, 2007 Filed in: Alumni News
The dinner was awesome, and the first alumni session
is going FANTASTIC.
Area 51 just happened. This was my first time on the new course! It is excellent. The old one was great and this one is even better!
But now I have to get back into the thick of it! More to come later!

I just got back from the von Braun Center to rehearse
my tiny role in the hole affair.
The setup looks wonderful!
I really think it's going to be a special night for the eight inductees and all of those in attendance.
If you're in the area, I believe you can still get tickets if you go over to the Space Center today! I think it'll be a very enjoyable night for all!

MSFC Tours to Resume

Yep! The rumor going around (well, the rumor I'm
starting here) is that Marshall Space Flight Center
tours will resume.
The date hasn't yet been completely nailed down, but I'm told that it will be sometime within the next month.
A great part of the Space Camp experience is about to return!
