Welcome to the USS Acadia web site!

This website is being created to help put together a reunion and to provide one place for Acadia members to get together.  From my limited research, there are at least 6 websites that Acadia sailors have registered on and none of those sites make a mention of the other sites.

The idea for this site came about when an email about putting together a reunion from Lenny (Arrington Leonard, a former BT) showed up in my mail box via Maria Guzman.  I decided to do my part by putting together the web site to help coordinate it.

Not bad for a month...
Monday, 20 March 2006

In about a month, we have 17 registered members, 120 photos, and around 700 site visits.  Gerrit Gilespie, Tim Lohrig, and Pete Parilla are the main photo contributors-- a big thanks to them.

Having several hundred (if not thousand) registered members would be fantastic, especially for purposes of trying to put a reunion together.  At least 100 attendee's is good starting point.  If 30% of the registered members come, that means we need atleast 300 members on the site, which is definitely doable.  So while you're out looking at other Acadia sites, send people you know over to this site.

Coming up soon are online cruisebooks, starting with the 88-89, the only one that the site admin has.  He should have 90-91, and 1992. The 88-89 book will be in the photo gallery within a week.

If you would like to add a cruise book as well, it's fairly easy with decent lighting, a tripod, and a digital camera that has "macro" mode.  The challenge is to set up the lighting so that there is no glare and be able to shoot without flash.  Once you get things in place, it's a matter of flipping the pages.
