2014 Summer bi-annual Ball
This summer, the theme for the bi-annual Ball was ‘Klingons’. It was set in the Klingon Village in Sovereign, where our very own richmerk (Merky) had constructed a wonderful Klingon hall, complete with barrels of bloodwine, giant statues and a (blood-) red carpet. It wasn’t just the setting which was amazing, though: at precisely 2 PM SLT, a Klingon stepped forward and announced the start of this auspicious event. The Admiralty’s speech was heard, giving us all some useful information about the Klingon culture.
At the end of the speech though, the Ball was rudely interrupted by a bunch of Klingons from a rival house, disturbing the party! This was all part of a RP, which finally ended up being a love story! Who’d expected that? The RP culminated in a beautiful, explosive (literally!) dance.
After that, Admiral Mechanique started calling forward the people who had received an award, or a promotion. At the end of the Ball, there was a chance for everyone to let their hair down, dance, or just get drunk on a barrel of bloodwine.
This definitely was a Ball to remember! A great big thank-you goes out to everyone who made this possible. This would’ve been impossible without you all!
And of course, congratulations to all of you who got promoted, or who have received an award. GFC can’t function without you!
The next Ball will be in the winter. Until then, we’ll have some great memories of the 2014 summer Ball. Q’apla!

Officers Graduation
Introducing Ensign Yaz
This Saturday, at 1:00 PM SLT, the Galaxy Auditorium was home to a graduation, the first held in a long time. The event was well attended, to witness this important event. The GFC Academy graduate, a Klingon female named Yaz, stood with pride as she recited the Officer’s Oath, and accepted her promotion to Ensign with pride and humility. We hope this is the first of more graduations to come, and look forward to helping new students and graduates in their careers.
