Online membership application is now live

The new online membership application for the USS Ticonderoga is now live. It has been tested and should be good to go. It can be found here ONLINE APPLICATION, or by clicking on “Join” from the top menu and click on “Online Application” from the pull down menu.

This can be used by Star Trek fans in our area that is interested in joining our free club. The application is one of the steps needed to acquire membership. The other requirements are to attend two USS Ticonderoga meetings or activities (we figured that if you come back a second time, you are interested in joining), meet the Commanding Officer (Captain Erica Stark) and Executive Officer (Lt. Commander Dave Stock). Once you have done the three items above, the Ticonderoga will submit your application to Starfleet Command’s Seventh Fleet for approval. They will send back the orders welcoming you to the fleet and chapter.

USS Ticonderoga Model

On our club website we have documented the actual and fictitious history of the vessels bearing the name “Ticonderoga” in our Namesake History section. Basically we love seeing the efforts that other Star Trek fans have completed using the name USS Ticonderoga.

Today, custom model builder and Star Trek fan, Bill Krause, posted these images of a Constitution Class (refit) USS Ticonderoga on his twitter account. We reached out to Mr. Krause and he has graciously given us permission to post the images here for all to enjoy. Thank you.

Congratulations to the USS PUlsar

Admiral Carl Stark (CinC Seventh Fleet), Captain Charles Corr (CO, USS Valkyrie), Captain Joe Coleflesh (CO, USS Pulsar) and Captain Erica Stark (CO, USS Ticonderoga).

Captain Erica Stark had the pleasure to represent the USS Ticonderoga at the Commissioning Ceremony of the Nova Class USS Pulsar, NCC-72358 in Utah County.

Captain Joe Coleflesh had launched a chapter-in-training, the Runabout USS St. Lawrence off of the USS Ticonderoga several years ago. He was able to build the chapter-in-training and obtain his rank of Captain with the help of Star Trek fans in Utah County. Thus the St. Lawrence was graduated to full chapter status and the USS Pulsar was launched.

The actual launching ceremony was originally scheduled to take place in 2020, however it had to be delayed until 2021 due to the ongoing pandemic. The official launch date of the full chapter is still listed as March 9, 2020 on the Seventh Fleet website.

After the Seventh Feet Commander-in-Chief read off the official orders giving Captain Coleflesh command of the Pulsar, Captain Stark and Captain Corr participated in the christening ceremony by smashing bottles on the “hull” of the ship.

Congratulations to the crew of the USS Pulsar. We are looking forward to hearing about your upcoming adventures for years to come.

Proud chapter of Starfleet Command's Seventh Fleet
