Well. I haven't posted in . . . a while. So I decided today, well, better update people.
In fifth grade I discovered a place better than any theme park I've ever been to. If you know me, you know I talk about it endlessly. It is: The Christa McAuliffe Space Education Center.
For those of you who have no idea what I am talking about, it is otherwise known as space camp. If you know me, you know I'm a fan of Sci-Fi. I LOVE Star Trek, and I watch the old ones as well as the new movie. This place helps you learn about space in an awesome, yet not boring way!
What you do there is you choose a mission, and depending on how many people are involved, you get onto one of five space ship simulators: The Galileo, 5-6 people, the Phoenix, 5-6 people, the Odyssey, 6-8 people, the Voyager, 10-11 people, and the Magellan, 11-15 people. Every mission is like living a Star Trek or Babylon 5 episodes!
If you are a Pew family member, you know that this summer our family is having a family reunion. I maybe- MAYBE, no guarantees- might be able to schedule a trip to space camp for a mission! It is just in Pleasant Grove, close to my house, and we'd be there for three or more hours. If you have children who are or who will be by summer between the ages of 10-15, they are eligible to go! And IF we do go, I need to know how many people will be going so I know which ship to book. There are no promises; but if you are a Pew and you follow this blog, send me the names of all your children in the age limit so I can count and give options. I already have the Cranes counted, as well as Jessie Pew. Sorry I don't know all the family's names, but please let me do this! It would be so fun for all of us IF we could go!
Scott, Tanner, and Jared are all in that age group. I don't know how many of them would be interested in going (I think probably all of them), but I will ask them in the morning and let you know. This is a good idea!
ReplyDeleteI think it would be fun but it depends when everyone gets here!
ReplyDeleteI know! That's why I put IF, capitalized. I would love to go though. :)
ReplyDeleteUmm, BTW I also counted the Espinozas.
ReplyDeleteAnd David. So, counting those people, I found that if we were to book anything, we'd book the Magellan.
