Reunion Weekend at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center The USSRC is excited about a special Reunion Weekend this summer on Friday, July 18, 2008, through Saturday, July 19, 2008, which includes the Fifth Annual Saturn/Apollo Reunion and the Second Annual SPACE CAMP Hall of Fame Dinner. Both events will be held in the Davidson Center for Space Exploration, creating a huge weekend celebration for the original Saturn V team members and our SPACE CAMP alumni. The Reunion, presented by Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne on Friday, July 18, will be a casual party with barbecue and all the fixings, featuring a brief program inside the Davidson Center under the Saturn V rocket. The Reunion will allow those retired members of the Saturn and Apollo teams to reminisce and see old friends from years gone by. Special guests confirmed to date include Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson (renowned astrophysicist, author, and Director of the Hayden Planetarium in New York City) and Paul Calle (original member of the NASA Fine Art Program). There will be a number of special activities during the day on Saturday, July 19.Tentatively planned are artist print signings, including Paul Calle and Cynthia Parsons, a local watercolor artist who has painted many scenes of our campus, plus a meet-the-author book signing session. Austin Boyd, author of the Mars Hill Classified trilogy, is confirmed as well. On that Saturday evening, the USSRC will hold the Hall of Fame Dinner, presented by ATK Launch Systems. We started the Hall of Fame last year on the 25th anniversary of SPACE CAMP as a way of recognizing outstanding alumni, and this year we will induct six new members into the 2008 class. In a more formal setting, Hall of Fame guests will dine at white-clothed tables beneath the Saturn V. There will be a number of honorary guests attending, including NASA astronauts Jim Halsell and Robert "Hoot" Gibson. Individual ticket prices for the Reunion are $10 for adults and $5 for children (after June 30th, $15 for adults and $10 for children). Tickets for the Hall of Fame Dinner are $40 each.
