There is currently NOT a scheduled meeting during Reno convention for
a gathering of shipmates performing webmaster duties for USSVI bases
(and SVWWII).

I asked Don Brown about a meeting and at his suggestion, maybe some
webmasters could could join together at the Newsletter Editor Meeting
Scheduled for 1300 Tuesday in the Teton Room.

Thank you

The response to the VA Hospital visit has been overwhelming.

The Hospital has requested that we limit visitors to 150/night, so as
not to swamp the hospital and it's staff. Therefore I have decided to
expand the visit to two (2) nights, Sept. 3 & 4, from 1700 to 2000.

I requested transportation form NAS Fallon and they cannot or will not
supports us. Therefore I have made arrangements for buses from a
commercial carrier to shuttle us back and forth.

I am asking for a donation of $5/each in order to cover this expense.

Please send your donations to:

Webmaster note:
The following is an e-mail I recently received.
Passed along FYI.
Sid
----------------------------------------------

My father, Doderic Craig, was on the GROUPER during WW-II and
would like to come to the convention.

I noticed that there was no GROUPER meeting scheduled, so is there
a group of guys he can get in with or ... a GROUPER event that he
can go to with a similar boat that still has some of these good
old timers left?

Thank you for your considerations and courtesies concerning this
matter.

Thank you and respectfully yours,

Lindsay Craig - Reno, Nevada
