US SPACE CAMP
Date: 4/17/10 - 4/18/10
Location: US SPACE CAMP-HUNTSVILLE, AL.
PACK WILL BE TRAVELING TO HUNTSVILLE, AL.- US SPACE CAMP. IT WILL BE APPROX. 4 HOURS OF A DRIVE. THE COST IS $100.00 PER PERSON. THE COST WILL COVER 4 MEALS, OVERNIGHT ACCOMMODATION AND THE PROGRAMS.
PLEASE MAKE PAYMENT TO KUMUDHA KUMAR VIA BACKPACK VIKRAM KUMAR MRS. SMITH 2-S NO LATER THAN FRIDAY APRIL 2ND.
1) The trip to Huntsville takes between 3 1/2 hours to 4 hours.
2) The program starts at 11am Saturday the 17th of April CENTRAL TIME. This is 12noon eastern time. This means that you can leave here at 7:30am on Saturday and make it comfortably.
3) The program ends at 1-2pm Central Time on Sunday the 18th. This means you will be home at about 6-7pm on Sunday.
4) There are four meals provided within the program.
Saturday lunch and dinner
Sunday breakfast and lunch.
These are all included in the $100 cost.
They tell me that they can accommodate most dietary needs, although we will need to give them specifics soon.
5) We are NOT camping. The sleeping accommodations are barrack style. We do need to bring sleeping bags, or sheets and blankets. they provide beds, and washing facilities. We will have our own room for Pack 582. Mom's are welcome, but they will be staying in separate accommodations.
6) The program includes IMAX and 3D movies, simulators, science experiments, lectures and tours of the facilities. Huntsville was / is one of the main homes of the space program, particularly during the Mercury, Gemini, Apollo era.
IT IS VITAL THAT WE GET ACCURATE NUMBERS. WE HAVE UNTIL 5pm ON WEDNESDAY TO GIVE THEM OUR FINAL COUNT AND AFTER THAT TIME THERE ARE NO ADDS OR SUBTRACTIONS. When you take into account four meals, the accommodations and the use of the facilities, the $100 seems like a great deal (just a personal opinion.)
Please, ask the parents to check the website, which they will find more information www.spacecamp.com
