2006 Reunion

The 2006 Santa Fe CL 60 reunion will be held September 11 through 16, 2006.  The location will be the Norfolk-Portsmouth, Virginia area.  The hotel will be the Holiday Inn Olde Towne in Portsmouth, directly across the Elizabeth River from Norfolk, the McArthur Mall and the USS Wisconsin.  An inexpensive charge for the ferry boat located next to the hotel will take us across the river.  There will be lunch and dinner and sightseeing cruises.  Portsmouth is an interesting "Olde Towne" to explore.  We're arranging for tours of Naval Air Station Oceana and Naval Station Norfolk.

Note to all crewmembers from Association Chairman John Shovlin:

October 20, 2003

Harold Hartmann has been compiling a list of all the USS Santa Fe crewmembers from 1942 to 1946.  He has asked for help finding copies of old USS Santa Fe Association mailing lists that may be lying around in drawers or the attic.  Here is Harold's message on the subject:

There were 1023 men that served on the Santa Fe from 1942 to 1946.  It would be nice if we could get more names on the list before our next reunion.  With all the active sailors in our group, there must be old mailing addresses that we could use to compile a greater list, even if the names were original, from way back when.  It might help if you mentioned it in your next newsletter.  Your old Navy buddy, just trying to keep young,  Harold.

So, if anyone has an old Santa Fe crewmember mailing list, please contact John Shovlin directly.  His address, phone and Email address are shown below.
