The trigger number off 78 meant more volunteers were going to be needed and we couldn’t find folks at that point.Įach day started at 9 a.m. Mission Control welcomed 77 students on July 22, and we had actually to cut off registration. Since this was the first-ever camp held at the Opera House, let alone a STEAM Camp, we set a reasonable goal. When launched in April, the team set a goal of 40 students. The pairing of STEAM and the Opera House are a natural fit for the staff who promote all types of arts and learning - not just the experiences on the stage. Many parents came forward asking for activities centered around the STEAM curriculum. Astronaut Camp was born out of the success of Eclipsefest in August 2017.
