Hello Friends,

   First I want to wish those of you going to the convention a safe 
trip. I hope you have a good time and looking forward to hearing all the 
highlights.

   I thought you might be interested in this tour. The Intrepid is an 
aircraft carrier turned into a museum and is in New York.  They have all 
sorts of aircraft from military jets to a space shuttle.

   They are giving a virtual descriptive tour about the Apollo space 
program. I have attached the information below for those who would like 
to attend. I hope you enjoy the tour.


Join the Intrepid Museum online for our upcoming virtual verbal 
description tour of our newest exhibition, Apollo: When We Went to the
