Did you know that Reston has elementary schools named after astronauts? That's right! Armstrong, Aldrin, and Crossfield. Well, two Apollo astronauts and an honorary astronaut...
Get-together and photo op out front of *Aldrin* Elementary. Sample astronaut ice cream.
Bring trackables to share and any astronaut/space toys or collectibles you'd like to photograph in front of this space-related spot. Space-/NASA-themed wear is welcome. If you've met Buzz Aldrin himself, we'd love to hear about it.
Bus stop just outside the parking lot. Facilities likely not available at the school (don't expect to go inside); go to North Point shopping center just up the road.
Doggos are sadly not allowed on school property :(
All of 0-9 are represented in the coordinates, to help those going for the CCT or another 0-9 challenge :)
Um, this sounds familiar... Very much like the description for the Armstrong ES event... Did you forget to change the location description?
Interestingly, these two schools are very near one another - pretty much at the same latitude and about equidistant (Armstrong west, Aldrin east) of the North Point shopping center. Call it Astronaut Alley :)
Closer to the 50th anniversary of Apollo :) Other events in this series:
