(It was either that, or, “When Life Hands you Lemons…” You can decide which is the better title).
From Channel 19 in Huntsville comes a story of a kid who, despite being told “no” from his parents regarding sending him to camp, decided to go anyway.
Space Camp wasn’t a passing whim for Tyler. To pay for the trip, he set up a lemonade stand outside a neighborhood restaurant in his Maryland hometown.
Good work, Tyler!
If you happen to tune into USA’s broadcast of Apollo 13 on February 19 (at 7pm), you’re in for a familiar sight.
An article in the Huntsville Times last week reported that USA Network was down in Huntsville to tape segments for the show “Ready for the Weekend Movie.”
The segments were filmed around the Space Center and Space Camp facilities where some of the cast of Apollo 13 went to train before shooting the movie (one week before I arrived to Camp one year, I might add).
So tune in and enjoy!
Just a friendly reminder to reserve your session for Space Camp in 2004 before time runs out on Space Camp‘s amazing “Early Bird Special.”
Even if you’re not sure which week you want to go, register now and choose later! You can pick the session week you attend up to four weeks before you attend or by March 1, 2004 (whichever is sooner).
Hurry! You need to register before the New Year begins! For with the beginning of the New Year comes the end of this wonderfully fantastic deal!
I’ve recently come across a T-Shirt design that, unless in some way licensed from Space Camp, just can’t possibly be legal!
Granted, I am not a lawyer, but it just seems to look too much like the Space Camp logo to be a coincidence (3 stars and everything).
But, make of it what you will (or buy one yourself if you’re so inclined, I suppose).
If anyone has any additional info about the product’s legal status (or anything else of interest), please do send it my way.
Illinois resident Robin Rotman has just been named a Rhodes Scholar. One of 32 from the United States this year, Robin, a Space Camp graduate, will spend the next two to three years in England studying at Oxford.
Congratulations!

Space Camp is currently running a fantastic promotion on the price of tuition!
If you book a camp session before the end of this year for a weeklong camp starting before August 21, 2004, you’ll only pay $649 for tuition!
This is good for Space Camp, Academy, and Aviation Challenge programs.
Further details can be found here.
And now I offer the following advice:
Parents: I’d say you’re out of excuses! Send your child(ren) now!
Kids: Go show your parents this offer now!
USSRC: I’d be really, really happy if you would make this good for Adult ASA as well! Think of it as good will towards the great amount of money I’ll no doubt be spending to send my future progeny to your fine camps!
Well, I can’t believe it, but Hab1.com has just surpassed 20,000 hits to the homepage!
And it was only this past November that Hab1 reached 10,000 hits!
So, that’s the first 10,000 hits in 1 year, 9 months, and the second 10,000 hits in 9 months!
Whew!
Nathalie and Tony, now 8 weeks into their Space Camp Turkey adventure, have checked in with updates.
A great many more photos have been posted as well, so be sure to check them out when you take a gander!
International Space Camp 2003 officially starts today!
Congratulations to those selected to represent your respective countries at ISC this week. And remember, it’s not just an honor, it’s an adventure!
I hope everyone enjoys their trip to Space Camp as well as the United States of America.
The HabForum has reached a very impressive milestone! 100 Users!
And, what’s even more impressive, the person registered while attending this week’s session of Advanced Space Academy!
It’s quite fitting, I think, that the 100th user should register from camp! Very cool!
