Join all the local IFT ships on our annual journey to Universal Studios for fun and adventure!

It's the BIG 40th anniversary celebration! Join the cast, crew, and fellow fans in the biggest Trek event ever! IFT will host a recruiting table of course, so stop by and say hello!

Well, the Triskelion arena (and Drill Thrall Shahna) were booked this weekend, so your athletically challenged Ulysses crew has chosen another fun semi-exercise venue for an away mission: Castle Park, home of a championship miniature golf course and voted favorite family attraction in the Inland Empire! No Collars of Obedience are required, and wagering of Quatloos is forbidden. At stake is some of Bob's duplicate stuff: "The World of Star Trak" by David Gerrold, a TBD Next Generation script, and the Dilbert compilation "7 Years of Highly Defective People". We discourage fighting to the death, but with winner-take-all prizes like these, we can't be responsible!

Look, up on the screen! It's a bird... it's a plane... no, it's some skinny kid in overly-dark Superman outfit with a rubber S-shield! Well, hopefully the story, effects, and scene-chewery of Kevin Spacey will carry the day in this latest episode of the exciting adventures of Earth's first and greatest super-hero, the Metropolis Marvel, the last Son of Krypton, the one and only Man of Steel... SUPERMAN!

Location: Krikorian Theater, Chino Hills

Face front, true believer! We're joining the Nathan Hale and the Athena on an awe-filled odyssey to the pulse-pounding premiere of Marvel's merry mutants in their latest ever-lovin' epic! Can Prof X defeat the mind-melting menace of Magneto? Can Scott rescue his beloved Jean from the clutches of the Dark Phoenix? Will the Beast ever get a haircut? Miss this one, and life on earth may never be the same! Excelsior!

Hello, crewmembers, we will be having a swap meet again to raise funds for our charities, The Living Desert and the San Diego Zoo. As we've been having this fundraiser for 5 years now, we are running low on things to sell. Since we will be having our next swap meet in April or May, get those garages and closets cleaned out.

Location: Beaumont Swap Meet
