Region 4 website relaunched; you submissions are welcome
By Commodore Dave Mason
Welcome to the live launch of Region4.org.
The Region 4 communications team recently redesigned the region4.org website, and new content started appearing Saturday, May 3, 2025. For the news from chapters throughout our region, please click on Region 4 News in the top bar. Stories will consist of republications of stories from chapters’ newsletters and websites from throughout the region, as well as original content exclusive to the Region 4 site. We’ll also have stories about “Star Trek” conventions, “Star Trek” programming news and other topics of broad interest to Region 4 of STARLFEET.
The goal is to publish at least one story a week.
The Region 4 website is operated by Commodore Dave Mason, the Region 4 chief of communications who’s overseeing stories and photos, and Capt. Christopher Mulrooney, the webmaster overseeing design, production and technology issues. Chris did the redesign work you see here.
Submissions of photos and stories are welcome anytime from commanding officers or their designated officers from every chapter in Region 4. To submit stories and photos, please email them to Dave at davemason1701@gmail.com. Photos should be high-resolution, 200 dpi in Photoshop, If you don’t have Photoshop or are unsure of the dpi, please set your camera or phone to its highest resolution. That likely will make photos big enough. And in your stories, please include a link to your chapter’s website. We want to promote your chapters and send readers to your websites.
To get the Region 4 website started, you’ll see content from the USS Angeles, Dave and Christopher’s chapter. But our hope is to have content from as many chapters as possible from every state in our region. The breadth and depth of content will determine this website’s success. Please share your stories and photos. Thank you.
In addition to news, you’ll see bios of the Region 4 Command Staff as well as a list of all of our region’s chapters and their websites.
Again, welcome to the new Region 4 website!
