HOF 2008 Nominations

Post by SpaceCanada »

I know Vincent made a lot of reminders, but did anyone make a nomination? I, of course, nominated Vincent, as I did last year, and noted that the alumni weekend shouldn't count as 'hasn't been to camp in 5 years' and that I doubt Vincent will ever stop going. He deserves a spot on that wall regardless.

Anyone else?

Let's see...based on last year's "winners" I guess we should nominate:

Neil Armstrong

Gene Krantz

and

Kate Capshaw

or do you think they'll actually let someone in that distinguished themselves at Space Camp?

What a concept.

it seems to be more about who distinguished themselves after Space Camp, not while at Camp. I think a little of both should be involved in order to be nomintated.

I wonder who the next set of SC Hall of Famers will be... I can understand why they chose the ones they did for the first round but the second round will be a bit more of a challenge, I'd think.

I know I'd nominate some of my fellow adult alumni because they are rather distinguished except the rules say nominees cannot have attended camp for so many years. Some of my team mates return every year at the same week (and have been for nearly a decade or more) and so they don't qualify. It seems a bit strange to me. They belong on the hall of fame moreso than someone who attended once a bajillion years ago and then made a name for themselves.

<End rant.>
