Wow, July has already been busy with FantasyCon, WesterCon and Independence Day. We hope that everyone recovered from the long weekend.
Now we have several more events coming up. Wednesday, July 9th is the USS Ticonderoga monthly meeting. Yes it will be at the Roy Library at 7:00pm (we called and confirmed that they had the spot for us). Friday, July 11th is the Senior Officers Meeting at the Captain’s house. Please have your reports and/or requests into you Department Chiefs before this date. Saturday, July 12th we have two things going on. At 10:00am at Bicentennial Park in Clearfield (just behind the Clearfield library) the Seventh Fleet is doing a photo shoot of members in costume/uniform. This will be for our upcoming Salt Lake Comic Con ad. At 2:00pm at Fisher Park in Clearfield (on 700 South) we will be doing another rocket launch (by request from members who missed the last one).
You can bring family and friends to the Monthly Meeting or Rocket Launch. Come by and have some fun with us. We’ve got a lot of planning coming up for our chapter and we would like to hear your input on all of them.
This Wednesday, February 12, is the next USS Ticonderoga monthly meeting. We will be at Rocket Fuel Coffee for the meeting (50 South State Street in Clearfield) at 7:00pm. We will be talking about the challenges that we’ve accepted from the 2014 Seventh Fleet Admiral’s Banquet. We will also be discussing our upcoming Lazer Tag event on Feb 25th (the cost also covers bowling as well). A few Ticonderoga members checked out a Star Trek tactics game that they want to show off. Will we be discussing anything else? That depends upon what you bring up. Bring friends and family and lets talk about the community service and fun that we can have as a group. We look forward to seeing you there.
We have a big meeting coming up on Wednesday, January 8th. This will be at 7:00pm at the Rocket Fuel Coffee Shop (50 South State Street in Clearfield). The primary purpose of our January meeting will be to fill out our 2014 event calendar. We need ideas of what the group would like to do for fun, community service or perhaps just something we’ve never done before.
This is also a great meeting to introduce new recruits to the club. We would love to hear everyone’s input on the future of the club. If you would like to order drinks or a meal before the meeting, please arrive early.
It’s finally December. So besides the normal monthly USS Ticonderoga meeting we will also have our annual gift exchange. This year the Captain has chosen the color of Magenta for our Mugato gifts (instead of white elephants). If you wish to participate in this gift exchange, wrap a present that you want to give and bring it. If you want to purchase a gift, please don’t pay any more than $10. Make the gift something you would like to receive yourself (no used loofahs or ABC bubble gum).
This meeting will be on Wednesday, December 11th at 7:00pm. NOTE LOCATION CHANGE. We will be meeting at the Rocket Fuel Coffee shop located at 50 S. State Street in Clearfield. We need to meet here as our December meetings tend to go longer than the closing time of the Clearfield library. January we will return to the library for our meeting.
There are several special announcements that will be made. There will be a discussion on the upcoming Ticonderoga New Years Eve party. We also need your RSVPs for the upcoming Seventh Fleet Admiral’s Banquet on January 25th (so we can get out proper food assignments). We look forward to seeing everyone at one of our largest meetings of the year.
Ok everyone the next USS Ticonderoga meeting is coming up on Wednesday, November 13th. We will be meeting at the Clearfield Library meeting rooms at 7:00pm. Rumor has it that we may have several new orders to hand out. There will be a lot to discuss with the crew so bring a friend. What events do we want to do for November? (we have several options) A discussion was started about reviving our Star Trek Role Playing Game under a new game master. We also need to discuss the upcoming gift exchange between crewmembers and the annual USS Ticonderoga New Years Eve Party.
Note: The last few months we have been going to Baskin-Robbins after the meeting for ice cream. This month we are looking at going to the newly opened Rocket Fuel Coffee located on 50 S. State Street in Clearfield after the meeting. It is possible that we may end up having the gift exchange at this coffee shop in December due to time constraints at the library.
Did you get the ADVOTs that were passed out last month? We are still accepting the “Attend Local Convention” for the Salt Lake Comic Con. However it is suggested that you get them in quickly. Other ADVOTs that you can work on towards your next rank advancement can be found in the Downloads section of the website.
Quick tip: Need some quick Knowledge Points for rank advancements? You can gain points just for watching Star Trek episodes and movies. Just put down the names of the episodes in the “Other items to report” section of your monthly duty report.
October is finally here. We have a lot of events at the end of the month but only one monthly meeting at the start. Yes every second Wednesday we meet at the Clearfield Library (address 562 South 1000 East). The library is just off of I-15 (700 S. Exit, turn West to 1000 East and turn north). The meeting starts at 7:00pm and the first 30 minutes is spent catching up our Star Trek family that we haven’t seen in a month.
Then we will be talking about the upcoming events for October and November. We also still have a lot of new people who found out about us from the Salt Lake Comic Con. Bring your show and tell items and friends who would be interested in having fun with us.
We’ve started a new tradition after the meeting. We are now hitting the Baskin-Robbins in Clearfield (just around the corner from the library) for ice cream and more socialization. They usually have a weekly special on Wednesdays.
Come make some new friends. Looking forward to seeing everyone there.
Members of the Seventh Fleet at the 2013 Salt Lake Comic Con.
Whew, we made it past the first (and record breaking) Salt Lake Comic Con. 70,000 to 80,000 fans packed the Salt Palace at this three day event making it the largest convention (of any type) in Utah and the second largest event after the 2002 Olympics. We met a lot of new friends and had some old friends show up. We had a lot of fun volunteering at the convention or at the Seventh Fleet booth (the Star Trek bridge simulator was a very popular destination at the con). The Salt Lake Comic Con held a very moving tribute to the late Captain Ruth Burns. The master of ceremonies, Tony Toscano asked the convention attendees at the Grand Ballroom for William Shatner’s speech to give Ruth a really big cheer (instead of a moment of silence). The entire room erupted in memory of our fallen comrade.
We could see some new faces at our next USS Ticonderoga meeting on Wednesday, September 11th. So be at the basement meeting room in the Davis County North library in Clearfield at 7:00pm (address 562 South 1000 East). We would love to hear about your experiences at the comic con, see the photos you took and the loot you came back with. We will also be talking about our fall events (Halloween party, corn maze visit, Rifftrax: Night of the Living Dead and more). Bring a friend and come to have fun. We will see you at the meeting.
The second Wednesday of the month is almost here. That means its time for the USS Ticonderoga monthly meeting. Don’t forget that we are now meeting at the Davis County North library in Clearfield. The address is 562 South and 1000 East. We will start at 7:00pm in the basement meeting rooms (there is a back entrance for anyone who wishes to avoid the stairs).
This will be the last meeting before the White Buffalo Games on August 24th (our monthly activity for August) and the Salt Lake Comic Con on September 5th through the 7th (our monthly activity for September). So come with your questions, car pool information/requests and we will find answers for you.
Don’t forget to bring a show-in-tell item and most important, bring a friend. We look forward to seeing everyone there.
For the month of June we have decided to combine both our activity and meeting into one grand event. Wednesday, June 12th we will be holding an Introduction to the USS Ticonderoga BBQ. This will start at 7:00pm at the Kiwanis Park in Clearfield. The address is 300 N. Vine Street. Bring your own meat to grill and a dish to share.
If you have any questions about the Star Trek fan club, USS Ticonderoga or the Seventh Fleet (our parent organization), Q will be there to answer your questions. Family and friends are welcome as it adds to the fun. We will also be discussing the movie promotion and CONduit reviews. We have changes coming up for the July activity that we need to decide upon. There is also a discussion on the upcoming Salt Lake Comic Con that we need to plan for.
We can announce that one change has been made. For the past several years we have been meeting at the Weber County Library in Ogden. However with the second Wednesdays no longer being available due to the city taking over the meeting space, we needed to find a new location. We wanted to stick with the second Wednesdays of the month for our meeting, so starting on July 10th we will be meeting at the Davis County North (Clearfield) library located at 562 S 1000 E. This is just off of the Clearfield 700 south exit of I-15.
We are looking forward to seeing you at many of our upcoming fun activities and meetings.
After two months of trying to find an alternate location for the USS Ticonderoga monthly meeting, we are finally returning to the Weber County Library-Main Branch. For the past two months the city has booked up the library space that we have normally used. So this Wednesday we are back at 25th and Jefferson in Ogden. We have a LOT to discuss. The upcoming movie promotion. Our CONduit room party at the end of the month. The just announced Salt Lake Comic Con (with Jonathan Frakes) that will be in September. So we will be talking and deciding on a lot of stuff. Please be there and feel free to bring friends. We will be going to dinner after the meeting (to be decided at the meeting). Looking forward to seeing everyone.
