Our cosmic-club was created 

7 years ago 

 May 15, 2010 

by my 14 year-old son Brett and I 

so that elementary school kids could get together once a month and learn about…

 rocketry

 astronomy

robotics

technology

and ”everything space” 

with the assistance of 

amazing volunteer “skype guests” and

 volunteer “in-house” educators.
