321 Day

  • When: Thursday, March 21, 2024,  3:21 pm
  • Location: 8 Broad St E, Titusville, FL 32796
  • Cost: free

3:21pm Gathering: The celebration of Ozzie’s life will begin with an informal gathering of friends at 3:21pm at Space View Park, where Ozzie’s lawn chair and famous green polo shirt will be placed for final respects. (The park is where he sold his ”Rocket Hobo” patches and touched thousands of people with launch updates, countdowns, and the occasional, “SCRUB!”)

4:00pm Live Broadcast: At 4pm, a special episode of the “Stay Curious” video podcast honoring Ozzie will be broadcast live on YouTube from Space View Park. Docents from the Museums of Brevard will have the remaining “Rocket Hobo” cloth patches available for donations made payable to the “American Space Museum“.

Move To Block Party at Welcome Center: Once mourners have paid their respects at the Park, they are invited to follow museum docents to the Titusville Welcome Center, where at 5pm Mayor Dan Diesel will read a proclamation in honor of Titusville’s most iconic character and inaugurate the best block party in the galaxy, Florida’s Space Coast homegrown holiday 3-2-1 Day “Tomorrow launches here!”

There will be food trucks and adult beverages for sale as well as exhibitors representing many of the causes for which Ozzie volunteered. There will be a performance by Interstellar Groove Machine, a local Space Coast band composed of aerospace employees.
