Yes, three years ago on the 23rd of January, 2011 we launched our little shuttle that was to become our Grand Legendary Class ship the USS Zavala. We went through some rough and rocky turbulence during that shakedown cruise but we made it and in 9 months too. I just want to say I’m very proud to be here with all of you. You are a fine crew and you’ve made this a great ship to be a part of.
Thank you everyone who came out to our annual winter party. Much fun was had by all.

The USS ZAVALA will be there. Wear your wrist band to get in free. 9pm at the Mohawk in Austin at 912 Red River St., Austin, TX.
Crew muster is tomorrow at 1400 sharp. Make sure you have all your reports ready as we have a lot coming up this week. Austin Comic Con is coming and the shuttle leaves Thursday night. Hope to see everyone there! Don’t forget, we have an election and we will be giving out awards tomorrow evening at the dinner. Be there in your best dress uniform.
Captain out.
I want to thank everyone who made it to the USS ZAVALA 2nd Anniversary Party after the Region 3 Space Center Houston away mission. We filled that room at Momacitas and we had a great time. Thank you so much for coming.

Ok, I’ve done it now. If you are wanting to participate in that crazy
Artemis game on Game Day, I want to ask you do it not just to serve your
ship, but to do it for charity. I’m working on getting us together for
a challenge to other ships to play us on game day and also sign up their
crew for Extra Life. Not only do we have fun and save the universe, but
we do it for a cause.
Let CMDR James Kent know you want to be on the team ASAP!!!!

I’d like to invite all of you who are going to Comicpalooza to come to our panels. “So you want to be a Star Ship Captain” is at 1300 and “Saving Our Ships” panel at 1330 on Saturday. The first one will be about STARFLEET International and our ship the USS ZAVALA and the second panel will be about the Battleship Texas and will feature several members of the Battleship Texas Foundation and we will be talking about the restoration and what is being done to save the last Dreadnought. Come by our table for the USS ZAVALA (booth 638) for more information.
Much fun and good food was had by all. We gave a lot of great awards to various people. All these can be found here.
