Hailing Frequencies Open October 2024

Hailing Frequencies Open logo

Another FanX: The Salt Lake Comic Convention has come and gone. The Seventh Fleet was very well represented by our main booth with the full sized shuttle, the Artemis Simulator running two bridges and attendees in general. We had a lot of volunteers who helped at both locations and with the convention itself. Not only did we help the convention, but we were able to fulfill one of our primary missions of community service. Funds were raised for the Cache Community Food Pantry (and you can still donate by clicking on the link, please let them know that the Seventh Fleet sent you). Many thanks to the USS Rendezvous for coordinating the booth and the USS White Buffalo for coordinating the Artemis Simulator. And we couldn’t do this with out the help of Dan Farr and the staff and volunteers at FanX. Thank you.

The Seventh Fleet and Star Trek were also presented on the news at FanX. ABC4 had a presentation about the Star Trek: The Next Generation Panel. ABC4 also interviewed members of the Seventh Fleet at the Artemis Simulator. If you took pictures at the convention, please send them into Photos@SeventhFleet.org.

If you stopped by either location and checked us out, welcome. We hope you had fun at the convention. Please visit our Online Interest Form and let us know which chapter you would like to have reach out to you. Even if you wrote down your information at the booth, this helps us get your details to the chapter as quickly as possible. You can also look around this website and ask us questions. We would love to have us join the fun at one of our many upcoming activities.

Don’t forget to join us on the Seventh Fleet Discord server. Gif-Wars has been very popular as well as sharing memes. The #Spoiler-Zone is where we can openly talk about the latest episodes (not just of Star Trek) without having to worry about spoiling it for someone who hasn’t seen the episodes yet. We also need photos of your pets for the #Porthos-Pals channel. This becoming the new online hangout.

We are looking forward to the fifth season of Star Trek: Lower Decks that will be airing on Paramount+ on Thursday, October 24th. The first two episodes will premier on that date with new episodes continuing every Thursday until December 19th. Some of us are still crossing our fingers that there will be more Star Trek: Lower Decks in some format in the future. There will be new Lower Decks comics being released by IDW Publishing, but we’d love a series of Lower Deck made-for-TV movies (hint, hint). Hopefully if we all watch Lower Decks, the powers that be may consider it.

Some sad news greeted us on August 5th when it was announced that actress Patti Yasutake passed away due to cancer. She was 70 years old and Star Trek fans knew her best as the character Nurse Alyssa Ogawa. Admiral Stark remembered meeting her at one of the Starfest conventions in Denver where she had the biggest smile.

In some good news, production in Toronto has officially started for the next Star Trek TV series, Star Trek Academy. Actors so far announced for this new series includes Holly Hunter, Paul Giamatti, Kerrice Brooks, Bella Shepard, George Hawkins, Karim Diane, Zoe Steiner and Sandro Rosta. Mary Wiseman, Oded Fehr and Tig Notaro would be returning as their respective characters from Star Trek Discovery. One of the biggest surprises is that the holographic doctor, played by Robert Picardo, will also be making an appearance. We don’t have a release date yet, but we are hopeful for something in mid-to-late 2025 on Paramount+.

FanX: The Salt Lake Comic Convention is quickly coming up in September. They have quite a few Star Trek guests announced. The Seventh Fleet will have a booth on the main vendor’s floor being conducted by the USS Rendezvous. Here we will be displaying the updated Shuttlepod Fairbanks. This will also be the 10th anniversary of the Fairbanks unveiling. The USS White Buffalo will also be running three bridges for the Artemis simulator. Volunteers are needed for both locations. If you would like to volunteer, please contact your Commanding Officer.

Well, if that wasn’t the most interesting Fleet Day that we’ve had in a long time. It’s not often that you can say three police vehicles showed up to one of our Star Trek events with 100 people in attendance. If you missed out, feel free to ask one of the attendees what happened. You were also missed. Many thanks to the crews of the USS White Buffalo and USS Strymon for all of their hard efforts. Despite the setbacks at the beginning of the event (that also wasn’t their fault) and the weird weather we had that day, we all had a ton of fun. Also a congratulations goes out to the USS Delaware who won the Admiral’s Challenge and gets to hold the Bragging Rights trophy for the year. We hope to see you next year at our annual fun event.

Everyone is talking about the second season of Star Trek Prodigy that was released last month on Netflix. If you haven’t seen it yet, it has been some of the best Star Trek stories seen in a while.

If you like watching Star Trek for free on PlutoTV, they will be adding a Star Trek Movies channel for the month of August. This is in addition to the three other Star Trek channels they are currently running.

FanX: The Salt Lake Comic Convention is quickly coming up in September. They have quite a few Star Trek guests announced.

We start this post with a sad announcement. The Seventh Fleet would like to extend our deepest sympathies to Captain Ross Trowbridge for the recent passing of his mother. We Do Not Stand Alone and may her memory always be a blessing.

Starting July 1st the second season of Star Trek: Prodigy drops on Netflix. It is twenty 20-minute long episodes. If you can, it is highly advisable to watch them sooner rather than later for two reasons. One, you get to avoid the spoilers that will be coming out very soon. Two, Netflix takes early results into consideration on renewing their shows. A strong showing will, hopefully, get us a season three.

The USS White Buffalo and USS Strymon have been working very hard on the 2024 Fleet Day. This will be held on Saturday, July 27th at Taylorsville Park and will run from 10am-6pm. This is an open event where a lot of the Star Trek family will be in attendance. Bring the kids and bring any interested parties that want to check out the local chapters. We will be having lots of fun, lunch and the annual Admiral’s Challenge after the games. We are looking forward to seeing everyone there.

Summertime is here and that means conventions, outdoor activities and lots of driving. We would like to encourage everyone to remain safe during these hot months. If you are behind the wheel, basking in the sun or gathering with friends always be aware of unsafe practices.

Speaking of getting together, the annual Fleet Day is coming up on Saturday, July 27th. This will be held at Taylorsville Park in Taylorsville Utah. The games, that are open to everyone, will run from 10am to 5pm. This year the USS White Buffalo is coordinating the games. We are looking forward to seeing our Star Trek family there.

What did you all think of the final season of Star Trek: Discovery? We are talking about it on the Seventh Fleet Discord. While there are no new episodes coming out in June, the second season of Star Trek: Prodigy starts on Netflix in July. All episodes should drop on the same day so happy binging.

Congratulations To:

The Seventh Fleet was saddened to hear of the passing of John G. Trimble. He, with his wife Bjo, ran the letter writing campaign that saved Star Trek back in the 1960’s. He was also very involved with fandom and events such as SCA and conventions. We remember his frequent visits to Utah for both conventions and backyard BBQs. May his memory always be a blessing.

The crew of the USS Discovery is continuing their quest to assemble all of the puzzle pieces before the bad guys get to them. Will they make it? What will the final prize be? What have you thought of season five so far? We are talking about it on our #Spoiler-Zone on the Seventh Fleet Discord Server.

We have a date for our upcoming Fleet Day. The games will be held on Saturday, July 27th at a park in Taylorsville. This is a fun event that everyone can bring their families and friends to attend. Thank you to the USS White Buffalo for putting this Fleet event together.

The Star Trek Adventures 2nd Edition Quickstart rules are now available for download for free in PDF. They can be found at this link on DriveThruRPG. The updates look like they will help streamline the system. They already explain the rules quite a bit as compared to the 1st edition quickstart.

Don’t forget to join us on the Seventh Fleet Discord server. Gif-Wars has been very popular as well as sharing memes. The #Spoiler-Zone is where we can openly talk about the latest episodes (not just of Star Trek) without having to worry about spoiling it for someone who hasn’t seen the episodes yet.

It is with a sad heart that we have to report that Commander (Retired) Dalice Nilson passed away on Monday, January 15, 2024. She was the first executive officer of the USS Rendezvous and was a huge force in the development and launching of the Rendezvous in the early 90’s. She always had a smile on her face and she was always happy to see you. She will be missed. The Seventh Fleet would like to extend our condolences to her family.

The 2024 Admiral’s Banquet is this Saturday, February 4th at the Weber County Library Southwest Branch in Roy. We will be starting at 2:00pm. Be there in uniform or nice dress, otherwise you just might find yourself in the brig. (grin) This is the big opportunity to see the extended Star Trek family in one location. The Roy library is just up the street from the Roy Frontrunner stop.

At the Admiral’s Banquet a special award will be handed out to those that have reached Bingo or Blackout in the Seventh Fleet 25th Anniversary Bingo event. What will it be? Come to the banquet to find out.

The Seventh Fleet calendars are done and will be given to the Commanding Officers at the banquet. They will distribute them from there. Thank you to to everyone who submitted photos for the calendar. And a special thank you to Meagan Johnson for putting together the layout for the calendar and Ross Trowbridge for putting together the cover.

If you are interested in being contacted by one of our chapters for membership, please fill out our Online Interest Form. We will then forward it to the chapter that you requested.

Don’t forget to join us on the Seventh Fleet Discord server. Gif-Wars has been very popular as well as sharing memes. The #Spoiler-Zone is where we can openly talk about the latest episodes (not just of Star Trek) without having to worry about spoiling it for someone who hasn’t seen the episodes yet. We also need photos of your pets for the #Porthos-Pals channel. This becoming the new online hangout.

Congratulations To:
Meagan Johnson on her engagement to be married.
Scott Hollinger on his engagement to be married.
Jasmine Johnson (USS Pulsar) for being promoted to the rank of Lieutenant (j.g.)
Katherine Trowbridge (USS Rendezvous) for being promoted to the rank of Crewman 1st Class

Hailing Frequencies Open January 2024

Welcome to the year of 2024. There are quite a few things that are coming up for us. First is our annual Seventh Fleet Admiral’s Banquet. While it is called the Admiral’s Banquet, it is really for the Admirals to celebrate the variety of crewmembers. We really are part of a Star Trek family. Normally this is held on the last Saturday of January, however the building that the USS Kelly arranged for us to use was booked up at that time, so we are moving it back one week to Saturday, February 3rd. This is a Uniform or Nice-Dress event for members and their plus ones. This will be held at the Weber County Southwest Library in Roy, Utah and will run from 2-5pm.

At the Admiral’s Banquet, we will be recognizing the members who participated in the 25th Anniversary Bingo. Those that made Bingo and Blackout will receive a special award. This event was a blast to participate in. Most of the photos from this Bingo event were used in the 2024 Seventh Fleet Calendar. If you have ordered a calendar, they will be passed out to the Commanding Officers at the banquet.

If you are interested in being contacted by one of our chapters for membership, please fill out our Online Interest Form. We will then forward it to the chapter that you requested.
