Cape
Canaveral, FL – October 2017 / Newsmaker Alert / Kennedy
Space Center Visitor Complex is hosting its annual Salute
to Brevard for two weeks this year, offering admissions savings to
Brevard residents and collecting donations for Brevard Sharing Centers
from October 23 through November 5, 2017. Brevard-resident-ticket-pricing
for these two weeks is $15 for adults and $10 for children ages 3 – 11
(plus tax).*
Kennedy
Space Center Visitor Complex is working with Brevard Sharing Centers to
ensure members of the local community have adequate supplies as they recover
after Hurricane Irma. Guests are encouraged to bring canned goods and non-perishable
food items, baby formula and food, and hygiene products. In addition to
these donations, the visitor complex will also collect used plastic grocery
bags, to be “upcycled” into lightweight, waterproof mats for homeless veterans.**
After
Irma, Brevard Sharing Centers distributed about 35,000 pounds of food in
10 days, an amount that would normally be given out in a month’s time.
Proof
of Brevard County residency in the form of a driver’s license or utility
bill is required to receive the special visitor complex admission rate.
Tickets must be purchased at the visitor complex on the date of entry.
Admission
includes a full day or more of fun, inspiration and educational activities,
including Heroes & Legends, featuring the U.S. Astronaut Hall of Fame®,
presented by Boeing, the Kennedy Space Center Bus Tour featuring the Apollo/Saturn
V Center with an actual Saturn V moon rocket, Space Shuttle Atlantis®,
Shuttle Launch Experience®, IMAX® A Beautiful Planet 3D and Journey
To Space 3D films, Astronaut Encounter, Journey To Mars: Explorers Wanted,
Science on a Sphere®, Rocket Garden, and many other exhibits.

their continued support of Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex.
