The 2007 Day of Discovery is scheduled for Saturday, October 27th, at Punahou School. This program fills up quickly, so get the online registration form filled in as soon as possible! From their website:

For students in grades 4 and above, parents, and teachers of any grade level or subject: This is the 6th annual celebration and special day honoring the life and legacy of Charles Lacy Veach, who grew up in Honolulu with an interest in science, had a distinguished career in the United States Air Force, and went on to fly two Space Shuttle missions.

Astronaut Lacy Veach serves to remind us all that the dreams of today can be forged into exploration and discoveries of tomorrow. While in Hawai'i, a child once asked Astronaut Veach: "What does it take to become an astronaut?" Veach responded, "You've got to believe in your dreams and you've got to be hard-headed enough to never let go."
