INTRODUCING APOLLO FIELD
Clear Creek ISD was proud to name the field at Challenger Columbia Stadium "Apollo Field" during a special commemoration reception held at the stadium on January 24.
As science, engineering and this region's history in human spaceflight are important in CCISD, the Board of Trustees approved a proclamation in December to honor the three fallen astronauts, Ed White, Gus Grissom, and Roger Chaffee, through the field commemoration. January marks the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 1 mission tragedy so the field will bear the name throughout the anniversary year. In attendance yesterday were Ed White's son, Ed White III; a former mission control operator from that fateful day; NASA JSC Associate Center Director, Melanie Saunders; and Ralph Parr who was a Clear Creek High School teacher at the time of the tragedy, among others with special interest in the commemoration. In honor of this anniversary, CCISD also placed Legacy Bricks in honor of Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chafee in the stadium concourse.
