Has it really been nearly a year since we’ve updated the USS Kelly website? Unfortunately, yes, and a lot has happened since we last posted in December 2024. In other ways we haven’t changed at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. We are still active on Facebook<\/a>, even if this website has been neglected (we are working on remedies for that, which may require a full website overhaul).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. We are still actively part of Starfleet Command’s Seventh Fleet<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. We are still recruiting new members and helping our recruits advance reach the ranks they want to within the Fleet (see the updated 2025 Rank Tracks<\/a> info on the Seventh Fleet website.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Our Communique<\/a> is still published about once a quarter and has been updated with the latest three issues (Vol. 2, Issues 8-10), with Issue 11 due out soon. We send those out to our crewmembers and friends in PDF format via a Weekly Briefing email. If you wish to be on the Weekly Briefing list, please visit us on our Facebook page as emails through this website don’t reach us properly. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. The USS Kelly just celebrated its 39th Anniversary<\/em><\/strong> on September 1, 2025. Do you know how many clubs can lay claim to over three decades of history? <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. I, Lt. Commander Jill Patterson, am no longer the Captain of the USS Kelly NCC 73400-B. That privilege has been given to Julie Henkes, who is about one Command Project away from becoming Lt. Commander herself. I appreciate the time I’ve had as your captain, and look forward to seeing where Julie leads in the coming years.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    I want to take this opportunity to congratulate Captain Henkes on her new position as Captain of the USS Kelly. May you, and the club, Live Long and Prosper!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
