Pleasant Grove High School's Phantom of the Opera


Hey everyone, this is Adam (Odyssey Flight Director)

Some of you might have noticed that I haven't been at the Space Center much lately, and that is because I am currently a part of Pleasant Grove High School's production of The Phantom of the Opera. I'm writing this to hopefully get you people who read the blog to come and see the production. You can buy tickets at PGHS in the finance office, or at the show before it starts. If you are planning on buying tickets at the show I suggest you be there very early (like 6:00ish) because we could sell out. Tickets are only $5 for kids, $6 for students, and $7 for adults. The show has already been going for a week and will continue on through this next week (Feb 7-12). The show starts every night at 7:00 p.m. in the PGHS auditorium. It truly is an incredibly magnificent production and I hope to see all of you there!


Thanks
Adam

A Monday. For Some Wow! For Others Nooooooo.

Hello Troops,
Just about to leave for the Space Center. Thought I share a few things to get the week off right.
It's a busy week at the Center. We have double schools (field trips that go from 9:30 A.M. to 6:00 P.M.) on Wednesday and Thursday. I've got SEP parent conferences on Wed. and Thur and our 9:30 - 1:30 field trips on Wed - Fri all have about 35 kids in each class meaning all four simulators will be in use. Yep, a busy week.

Now this is what I call dreaming big.

And this one gets the Monday Imagination Award. Clever and worthy of a mention

And finally, I present the sad story of Kade the Koala. He once had a beautiful wife (Koala Anderson), nice sports car, hugh house... And now? Only an apple and cold concrete beneath him. It could be any one of us sitting there in his place except for the Grace of God. Let Kade's story of greed, ambition, love and loss at any cost be a lesson to us all.

Perhaps you should bring an apple to the Space Center for Kade when you come in to work or volunteer. I'm thinking we will call this new charity drive Kade Kare. Your Thoughts?

Mr. W.

Bracken's Amazing Shot

Hello Troops,
Bracken Funk is one of the Space Center's amazing Flight Directors currently going to school and playing basketball for Fresno State in California. He sent me the video below on Friday. Yes, he is amazing. Just what you would expect from a Space Center employee.

Bracken will lead this summer's Leadership Camp for our 14-17 year olds. Be sure to register. Summer camp registrations are underway for anyone 10 to 17 years old.
