The conference is a go - I am working on sending out the announcement but it will be June 22-24. It is an academic conference and will be here at Taylor.
Any updates on the possibility of this conference? The time is approaching to set our summer flight schedule.
Susan,

2010 balloon conference
Would anyone be interested in attending a balloon conference next summer? Taylor University is working on developing a balloon conference for faculty and their students June 22-24, 2010 (1/2 day, full day, 1/2 day). Some of the ideas include a balloon launch, poster session, breakout sessions (any ideas - technical development, curriculum???), networking, and grant development. What are your thoughts? We want this to be a way to connect and share information so your input is critical.

Launches
The school year is going to be busy. We already have 6 launches this fall at schools who attended the CCLI workshops and have at least 3 more on TU campus. Jeff is also working on an INSGC grant and needs some stormy weather to launch - so far, no nasty weather around here but summer's not done.
