The band, not the camp!

I’ve been wondering about this one for a while, myself. It seems Space Camp (the camp, not the band) finally got around to saying something about it!

From the band’s website:

This is the home page of the band formerly known as Space Camp. Sadly, the band is being forced to change its’ [sic] name by Space Camp in Alabama, (you know, where the kids go to be astronauts…). This week, the band recieved [sic] a letter demanding we make this change. Since we are good natured most of the time and don’t want to rattle the cages of the United States Space Camp, we will be renaming the group. What’s really in a name anyway? All of our current tour dates remain current, but will not be played under the handle “Space Camp.”

So there you have it.

If you’re here, that must mean that hab1.com is now pointing to its new home!

Either that, or you just got here (for the time being) by going to hab1.vazzo.com

Either way, welcome! I even think I got all of the bugs worked out! How about that?!

Enjoy!

Still from USSRC Web CamIt seems as if the USSRC has installed a web cam in Rocket Park! And it’s a pretty good one, at that!

The thing updates in real time so you can even see visitors and campers touring the park!

Additionally, they are in the process of moving the Saturn V for restoration…check out the crane!

USSRC 2004 Financial InformationThe Space & Rocket Center has had posted online their 2004 annual report.

It’s pretty interesting, so I wanted to make sure everyone who came by here had the opportunity to view it. It has some pretty interesting data. Revenue reports, expenses, etc. It also contains a mention of parties from Germany, Mexico, Australia, Malaysia, and Korea interested in becoming Space Camp licensees!

Additionally, scattered throughout the report are blurbs on great alumni doing great things. Included among them, of course, is our first astronaut alumnus, Dottie Metcalf-Lindenburger!

In addition to Space Camp Turkey looking for two more counselors, our very own Matthew Danner has updated his blog twice since I last mentioned it.

Space Camp Turkey LogoGo have a look (especially if you’re thinking about joining the ranks as a counselor at Space Camp Turkey)!

From his most recent update:

A lot has happened since I last wrote. I have finished training and received my first team last week. It was a two day program called OSA, Outer Space Adventure I think. They were a GREAT group of kids and so much fun. It was really odd being on the other side of things, being the counselor instead of the camper, but was really fun.

Space Camp Turkey is still in need of two counselors: one female and one male. It’s not too late to work with a lot of great people at Space Camp and possibly influence the lives of great campers throughout the world!

Space Camp Turkey LogoIf you’re interested, you should get in contact with Beth Mitchell immediately!

For some more information, you can read the job advert and see the official job description.

And if you’re considering it but are unsure of traveling all the way to Turkey, do yourself a favor and watch this video about Space Camp Turkey!
