Re: 1996 Groups vs Now?

I spoke with someone with the Space Camp Alumni in which I was basically told if you earned a set of wings you were considered an alumni. None the less, I will be heading to Family Space Camp with my daughter in June. It will be nice to return back to Huntsville after 21 years!

Re: Hidden Figures

Looks like the Best Buy exclusive of Hidden Figures comes with an offer for the e-book of Hidden Figures as well. Looks like a decent deal, $19.99 for Blu-ray + DVD + Digital HD + UltraViolet and the e-book offer.

Re: Additional Item Purchases When Registering For Camp

My daughter and I are now officially signed up for a 4 day family camp as I am writing this reply. She has an interest in science and space, so I'm excited to be sha...

Additional Item Purchases When Registering For Camp

I have a few questions on additional item purchases when registering for camp. Has anyone purchased the clothing package? If so, is it worth the value and are the items good quality and/or have nice logos, etc? Secondly if you sign up for the flight suit ahead of time, is it a new one or is it one y...

Re: 1996 Groups vs Now?

I agree, I'd think that our class /student names would be in a database some place. I also agree on what qualifies someone as 'alumni' with the rest of you. I only mentioned on here what I was told, which I suppose is a whole other debate in itself. Good point SpaceCanada, I looked through my progra...

Re: 1996 Groups vs Now?

Figured i'd share my 'findings' on my question / discussion of then vs now. So I had a discussion with a current Space Camp associate in which I was told that my group attendance to Space Camp in 1996 would have been either considered Pathfinder or Astrotek.

Alabama Space And Rocket Center Patch

Came across this Alabama Space And Rocket Center Patch on eBay. Just posting this link out there to see what's everyone's thoughts on this area and if anyone has seen a 'white' variant such as this? I've only seen the red patches on the flight suits in books and photos? http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTA...

1996 Groups vs Now?

I was lucky enough to get to go to Space Camp with my school group in May of 1996 in Huntsville, AL. From what I recall, we stayed 3 days and 2 nights in one of the habitats. We got to tour the Marshall Space Flight Center, enjoyed an IMAX movie, as well as participated in the various activities to ...
