We greatly appreciate your interest in a Counselor position for this summer. Unfortunately, we will not be hiring any new counselors. Due to budget constraints, we will only hire returning counselors who have already been trained.

We will, however, hire new counselors for the January/February 2004 training session. If you are currently in college, you might want to check with your Career Services Dept. to see if the Counselor position could be a co-op position. If you are interested in coming to work next January/February, please let us know so that we can keep your application active.

Thank you again for your interest and good luck in your job search. We hope to hear from you regarding the Spring 2004 training session.

Contest Submissions now Being Taken

Comments Off on Contest Submissions now Being Taken

So I said it’d be April 1 – April 30 that I would be accepting submissions. Whoops!

Still, everyone’s known about the current contest, so you’ve had time to work on them…and still do!

To submit your logo(s) (up to two, remember), email them to [contest AT this domain, hab1.com].

As for official rules (this is a contest, after all, and what contest would be complete without official rules?!), just go look at one of the old Space Camp contest rules I guess. Basically, standard contest rules apply (Open only to residents of the United States and Canada, must be 13 or older to enter, etc.).

The winner will be announced on or around May 5, 2003.

Good luck!

War Slows Camp Reservations

Comments Off on War Slows Camp Reservations

An article published in the Huntsville Times notes the current status of bookings at Space Camp and how they are down for the year due to the current conflict in Iraq (the article was published at a time when war seemed imminent, but had not yet begun).

Reservations for June and July camps are down by about 1,400 from where U.S. Space & Rocket Center CEO Larry Capps would like them to be.

However, the article does note that while reservations are down, revenue is still up since they haven’t discounted the price of the programs as they did last year.

Space Camp Alters its Cancellation Policy

Comments Off on Space Camp Alters its Cancellation Policy

In light of recent world events, Space Camp has made a few alterations to its cancellation policy.

As can be seen here on their registration page, the policy now includes the following:

In the event of military conflict, and if you, your child or group are unable to travel during that time you would need to arrive for your camp session:

  • We will hold your individual reservation for US Space Camp or Aviation Challenge until such time that you can reschedule.
  • For groups of 12 or more, we will gladly reschedule your contracted session to include the busy summer season dates if necessary.
  • Full tuition refunds will be made provided we receive your refund request in writing no earlier than two weeks prior to the start date of your camp session.

Otherwise all cancellation requests will be held to our existing stated Cancellation

Policy. NOTE: We can not be held liable for additional or forfeited transportation charges incurred as a result of your desire to reschedule your camp session.

SpaceCamp DVD is now Out of Print

I’ve been notified by Anchor Bay Entertainment (the distributors of the recent SpaceCamp DVD) that their rights to publish the title have expired.

My advice is to either go search high-and-low for a copy at your favorite DVD retailer or win the contest currently on here (see further down the page for details)!

Good luck either way!

Hold off on Making a Reservation for a Day or So

New promotions should be announced within the next day (give-or-take) for camp.

While I have no idea what they might be, it’d probably be best to hold off registering for day or two until they’re announced.

And the free flight suit promotion is good until the end of this month, so there’s really no risk to wait (unless there’s only one or two spots left for the week you wish to go).

More to come…
