The regular dues for the Association are $10 a year for 2 years. and will be valid through 2005. If you are the spouse of a deceased crewmember and still want to participate in the reunions, you are not required to pay dues, but please let Carl know of your intentions.
A new catagory for dues this year is for Lifetime membership. These are available to the first 50 members who apply. Once you pay this amount, you will no longer be required to pay annual dues. The Lifetime membership is being offered so the Association can build a slush fund for the purpose of purchasing merchandise and obtaining working capital for future reunions. A membership card will be issued for Lifetime Members. To see the current list of Alumni members, select the "Current Members" button to the left.
It was decided by our Board of Directors that all Plank Owners will be given Lifetime memberships.
All Plank Owners, and those of you who would like to become Lifetime Members, please let me know how you would like your name to appear on your Lifetime membership card.
Please mail your dues check, made out to USS Charr Alumni Association,
($20 for regular members)
($100 for Lifetime members (include info on your name appearance))
($0 for Plank Owners - submit name info only)

The USS Charr Alumni Association was formed in 2003 to provide Charr crewmembers a vehicle to keep the memories of the Charr alive, and provide for the planning and delivery of a periodic Reunion for the members and their families. The Reunion span is now 2 years, with the next Reunion in 2005.
In order to provide that service, dues are requested to help out with mailings, web page, and Reunion pre-payments. Your cooperation in this regard will help the officers of the Association keep the goals alive.
