The Ark to the Future

A Family Time Capsule and Memory Album

By Joost Effers and Michael Fragnito

Pages:  1  2  3  

You should select a day of significance, either universally or personally. Some obvious days are January 1, Christmas Day or another religious holiday, the vernal equinox, July 4, birthdays, wedding anniversaries, Mother's Day or Father's Day, or a day of historical importance. How long you choose to keep the capsule closed is entirely up to you. We feel that 25 years is the minimum length of time. To a child, that will seem like an eternity, but most adults realize that it passes in a veritable blur. Each year the Ark is in transit will add to its power and mystery, as time and events reveal the secrets of the future. Today's society craves instant gratification, and so this concept is entirely contradictory to our present way of life.

Be patient. It will be worth the wait.

For more great ideas, take a look at a new product called Ark to the Future: A Family Time Capsule and Memory Album. It includes all of the following: silver metal time capsule, 32-page hardcover memory album printed on acid-free paper, poster-size family tree suitable for framing, fully illustrated handbook with inspiration and advice on filling the time capsule, two postcards, 10 decorative stickers, one sealing label, and a certificate of voyage designed to be kept separately from the capsule ensuring that it won't be lost with the passage of time.
