Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the Starship Jamestown. Her on-going mission: To strive to be recognized in our community as a reflection of the ideals expressed in Star Trek. When other human beings are unable to help themselves, when the environment of our planet is endangered and needs assistance to replenish itself in order to sustain this and future generations, and to encourage others in extending our reach "From the Sea to the Stars," the crew of the Jamestown will be the ones to say "Let Me Help."

Welcome to the home page of the USS Jamestown. The Jamestown, or "Jimmy-T," is a Star Trek fan club in the Hampton/Newport News area of Virginia and a chapter of Starfleet: The International Star Trek Fan Organization. The Jamestown began service to Starfleet International on September 6, 1982, and is the oldest chapter of SFI in Virginia. She began service as NCC-1843, an Enterprise Class Heavy Cruiser under the command of VADM Steve Thomas. With the advent of Star Trek: The Next Generation, the crew decided to step into the 24th Century. The Enterprise Class Jamestown became a Nebula Class Light Cruiser, NCC-1843-D, also under the command of VADM Thomas. Since then, the Jamestown has served admirably in our Fleet and community under RADM Richard Hewitt, and COMM John Winsley. Most recently, Rear Admiral Hewitt stepped down from his second tour as CO, returning command to Commodore John Winsley in September of 2005.

Commanding Officer: Commodore John Winsley
Executive Officer: Fleet Captain Marilyn Romero

As you will see, we like to have fun as well. We encourage our members to take on an alternate persona within the 24th century timeframe of the Star Trek universe. We also have a multitude of picnics, parties and other get-togethers throughout the year for a variety of reasons. We also attend a multitude of Star Trek conventions where we have had the pleasure of meeting several Trek and other Sci-Fi stars. In the above picture, you can see the crew with Scotty.

In addition to various Star Trek and other fun related activities, the Jamestown's crew are active participants in various charity fund-rasiers throughout our community, helping such organizations as: Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters, March of Dimes, American Cancer Society, Operation Smile, and others. On board the Jamestown, you can hold rank of Cadet (If you are under 18) and Ensign (If you are over 18) up through Commander. You can hold a variety of actual and real life positions on board the ship such as Treasurer, or Chief Engineer. The Jamestown takes it's motto of "let me help" very seriously, and it is an inspiration as we work on our various community service projects. By joining the Jamestown, you will be helping us to help others.

We meet on the third Sunday of every month at the Virginia Air and Space Center in Hampton, VA at 2:00 PM. If you're in the area, come to one of our meetings or events and check us out! If you're a bit farther off, you may want to consider visiting other close by chapters of Starfleet International: USS Maat in Virginia Beach, or USS Powhatan in Chesapeake. You can find their info on the STARFLEET Web Site: Starfleet International If you have any questions concerning the club, email our webmasters listed at the bottom of the page, or our Commanding Officer, Commodore John Winsley.

The members of our crew and the crews of the other ships in the area become very close to each other during their mutual work at our charity functions as well as our other fun events. When one of our friends in Trek dies, it hits us all very hard. Unfortunately, two of our friends have passed on recently.

Lieutenant Helen Hadsall, a former member of the Jamestown, died of breast cancer.

Commander Ka'Leth zantai-DeLore (Crystal Belton) of the IKV Bat'leth died of congestive heart failure.

Their loss weighs heavily upon us. May they both rest in peace.
