Front row seats to manned launches included! We are looking for people to work the tables we will have at Space View Park on days set for manned launches. Sometimes the launch windows are mid day or the evening, sometimes at night, dawn or even the wee hours of the morning. Whenever the launches happen, we have a team that goes, sets up under tents and makes items available for sale such as water, merchandise and sometimes light pre-prepared snacks. We are looking for faithful people with willing hearts that love what is happening with the space program that will be willing to be out at the park with us whenever these opportunities arise. Come join us for the best seats in the house AND help with a great cause in the process! PLEASE DO NOTE REGARDING COVID-19: THESE EVENTS ARE CURRENTLY POSTPONED until safe to resume, INCLUDING THE MARCH 27 LAUNCH, however we ARE still taking volunteers to be available when things are safe to begin again.
About American Space Museum / Space Walk of Fame Foundation
Location:
308 PINE ST, TITUSVILLE, FL 32796, US
Mission Statement
Our mission is two-fold, as our tagline indicates: "Preserving Achievement; Inspiring Innovation." First, we honor those who built the American space program by preserving their artifacts, history and individual stories. Second, we use those stories and artifacts as an educational springboard toward inspiring a new generation to innovate, invent, explore and discover.
Description
We have a 6,000 sq ft facility in downtown Titusville, dedicated to honoring America's space pioneers and displaying their artifacts and achievements. We also offer STEAM Space, a dynamic education program that features almost-weekly programming for grades 3-12, a variety of camps of activities and a Makerspace, which will be opened by the end of 2016. We are also building a one-of-a-kind SALT program, focusing on Strategic thinking, Administration, Leadership and Teamwork.
Our museum is open 6 days a week, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. with a suggested donation of $10 per adult, $8 for military and seniors, $5 for students 13-18 and FREE for students under 12. Our near-by Space Walk of Fame monuments are available for viewing year-round. We offer docents who worked in the space program and can tell the story of our space history from a personal perspective. We also offer a hands-on experience where visitors can interact with some (not all) of our artifacts...including a mission control console that was used during the Apollo and Shuttle programs, and a NASA program desk from 1964, which offers visitors the chance to dial an old rotary phone and type on a NASA typewriter from the era.
