Space Camp DO
 

Hello everyone,

While attending the Delta Skymiles Forum event (aka ATLDO) I asked a few loyal FTers if they would be interested in a Space Camp DO. The response was really great so I've decided to poll everyone and see who would be interested.

The location would be Huntsville, Alabama (HSV) but there are larger airports in Nashville and Birmingham both about 2 hours away.

If the response is good I will go ahead and make contact with a few ex-coworkers and see what we can put together.

You can check out their standard program information for adults at

Thanks,

Wes

Am definitely interested in hearing more ^ What other things are there to do in the HSV area??

Wow, isn't that the damndest thing. I went as a youth and just today opened the bin that had my astronaut blue jumpsuit in it (I did not try it on ;)). I would be potentially very interested in this depending on the dates.

Also, I can offer first hand testimonial that the HSV Space Camp is an awesome, awesome experience. This was about 20 years ago. I'm sure it's improved.

I'd be interested, depending on dates. Can't plan too far in advance.

Good idea, but we've been there done that.

We were there for a non profit BOD meeting a few years ago and used the Marriott next door and could just walk over to the Space Camp facility and space museum and Imax theater and had a great experience.

and if you like German food, you'll find it in Huntsville, though served by waiters with southern accents.

I'm interested, and I am pretty certain that sc flier +1 would be interested. Depends on suitable dates, of course.

I went to Space Camp in '97, and it was great!

I don't see myself flying over from Europe for a DO there though.

Please mark me as interested. I always wanted to go to space camp, but never got around to it :cool:

Interested but it depends on when it is and if I can loose enough weight to go on all of the simulators.

I went to Space Camp some 20+ years ago when they had it in FL, near KSC.

It rocked.

I work down in HSV (actually Madison) every now and then.. I am also contemplating sending one or both my kids to Spacecamp this summer. I have the pamphlets on my desk at the office

not sure of your timeline but if the stars lined up.. i'd be interested

I'd try to work down there the week my kids were in camp of course

It depends on the dates. Sounds great, put me down as ... interested. :)

I went in 93 & 95 iirc. It was a bunch of fun - mark me down as interested too. BTW, Applebees in HSV had a great happy hour with 50 cent beer when I was there 3 years ago :)

Thanks everyone - based on the numbers we get here I'll move forward and see if we can get some dates. Keep posting if you are interested.

I'm interested depending on dates/cost.

If 69 is not too old I would be interested.
