2024 is quickly coming to an end and what a wild ride it has been. We are certain that many members of our Star Trek family will be busy with the holidays. So remember to be safe out there when it comes to cooking and travel. The weather in the inter-mountain west can get nasty real quick.
There are only a few episodes of Star Trek: Lower Decks left. Please watch them so that Paramount knows that we want more. While this might be the last season, there is talk of future Lower Decks specials or movies.
We have a new social media account to use for communication purposes. With the rapid growth of BlueSky, we felt it was necessary to grab our username that we’ve used on other social media sites. The service has been adding a million members a day. A lot of Star Trek actors and professionals have made the jump as well including William Shatner, Kate Mulgrew, George Takei, Anson Mount, LeVar Burton, Wil Wheaton, Jeri Ryan, Robert Picardo, Michelle Hurd, Wilson Cruz, Todd Stashwick, Chase Masterson, Eugene Roddenberry, Alex Kurtzman, Terry Matalas, Mike McMahan, Mike Okuda, Larry Nemecek and many more. We are discovering more on a daily basis. You can follow the us by clicking here: @SeventhFleet.bsky.social.
This is what the cover to the 2025 Seventh Fleet Calendar looks like. We still need photos and images for the monthly entries, please send them into Photos@SeventhFleet.org. Working with Gordons Copy and Print we’ve been able to keep the cost at $10 a calendar. The due date for the money to be into your Commanding Officer will be December 20th.
The Seventh Fleet Admiral’s Banquet is the anniversary of our Star Trek family that we hold every January. The USS Rendezvous is coordinating this year’s event. This year the banquet will be held in Richmond at the same location that we had some of our past banquets. This will be held on Saturday, January 25th starting at 11am. The cost for the banquet food will be $5.00, cash at the door. The food will be Dutch Oven Chicken or Pork, potatoes, salad, rolls and desert. There will be a Quark’s Bar run by the USS Valkyrie. There will be ship videos and a silent auction. Volunteers are needed for setup and take down. Please contact your Commanding Officer if you would like to help. This is a uniformed/nice-dressed event for members and their plus ones.
