The Seventh Fleet Olympics was held on Saturday, August 21 in Layton, Utah. We had the opportunity to have fun with members of our Star Trek family from the USS Atlantis, USS Kelly, USS Rendezvous and USS Retributor. A lot of Ticonderoga members walked away with medals, and more importantly more friendships. We hope to post the results very soon. What events did you guys like the most at the Olympics?
The last caption contest was very popular so we decided to do it again. What do you think these two cool characters would be saying?
Good luck to all of the entries.
As requested, here is the schedule for the upcoming Seventh Fleet Olympics. This fleet wide event will be held on Saturday, August 21 at the Chapel Park (152 South 900 East) in Layton and will be hosted by the USS Retributor. I would recommend arriving early to sign up for the entries that you wish to participate in. I’m not certain if the number of slots are limited.

This is the first of many caption contests we will post on the USS Ticonderoga website. We will post an unusual image and invite anyone to post a comment with what you think the funniest caption should be. Winners will be announced in a future post.
Here is the first photo for captioning.
Good luck to all of the entries. We are looking forward to seeing them.
