Today, the USS White Sands held a regular meeting to discuss our ongoing projects and future plans. While there were no significant updates from the Communications, Medical, or Tactical/MSG departments, several other areas had important developments.
Engineering reported on the upcoming Breast Cancer Walk, which will take place on October 26th at Cottonwood Mall. The Conn officer shared the success of the recent trip to Los Alamos and announced carpooling availability for all events. Operations provided updates on the Breast Cancer Walk location and the upcoming Holiday Party on November 16th. Additionally, they discussed the Toys for Tots campaign, which will take place during Black Friday weekend, and invited the 501st Legion to assist.
The Sciences and Tactical/MSG departments had no new reports at this time. Counseling announced new recruits to their Facebook page and shared that CJ Rodgers, the owner of Raised by Wolves, is now a member.
During the Old Business portion of the meeting, we discussed the tribble adoption event, which raised $372 for Raised by Wolves. We also addressed the issue of finances, including our current account balance, website costs, and future expenses.
In New Business, we discussed the Toys for Tots campaign, set meetings for 2025, and discussed planning a Galaxy Quest Thermian Edition viewing party. Finally, we reminded members about the importance of renewing their memberships.
Overall, the meeting was productive and provided valuable updates on our various projects. We look forward to continuing our work and making a positive impact on our community.
