Those attending the 2001 reunion in Peoria, IL met at 1400 hrs on Friday, 14 Sep 01 and voted unanimously to form the Sea Fox Association. The purpose being to keep alive the memories of times served and shipmates with whom we served.
It was further approved that yearly dues be charged to help defray the costs of reunion planning, publishing a newsletter, and for other projects we undertake. Dues will be $10 per year, payable in January of each year. Dues collected during the remainder of 2001 will cover 2002 also.
Members will be provided with a yearly membership card and personal Sea Fox Association Business Cards which are included in the yearly dues.
There will be a Storekeeper page on the website in the future where members can order Sea Fox items. Procedures for ordering items will be posted on the Storekeeper's page.
The Newsletter, "The Below Decks Log", will be published twice a year and posted on the website for those that have access. The Newsletter will be mailed to all members. Those members with Internet access and can download the newsletter are asked to contact Mary Ellen and be removed from the mailing list.
Any funds left from the original reunion account were transferred to a new Sea Fox Association account.
