THE USS STARQUEST

USS StarQuest meets EVERY Saturday 4-9p

Captain Handshaw — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 19:34:12 +0000

Membership is 12 strong including: Neil and Liz Day, Andreas Romero, Alisa Santiago, Joe Lauria and Anthony Ruth, Mark Gionfriddo, Frank Fasulo, Norman Handshaw, and sometimes Joyce Staiger…in addition to Tasha and myself (Jeff Handshaw).

Andreas is currently training to be our new 1st officer (XO).

We still are meeting (almost) every Saturday at the Calistoga at the SW corner of Airport Road and Vanderbilt Beach Rd. from 4pm-9pm.

To be sure that something hasn’t come up, you might want to confirm this either via email (jchandshaw@yahoo.com) or phone 239-450-8344 to be sure we are holding a meeting, since vacations, conventions and sickness can cancel a meeting (if no one is planning on showing up)…We don’t want to leave anyone out in the cold!

FINALLY Fixed the Website

Captain Handshaw — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 19:12:59 +0000

After Joe put a bug in my ear, I managed to figure out how to make our website readable again, and in doing so I cleaned it up a lot…getting rid of the dark blue on black, the dirty greys leaving us with either white or bright light blue text which turns bright light green when you hover over it, and the header turns pretty purple when you hover over it…

Now we can move ahead with making the site relevant again and easier to read

We are still meeting weekly

Captain Handshaw — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 18:59:10 +0000

A meeting will be held this Saturday, July 3rd, 2010…agenda is still TBA
