ABOUT THE TIBURON
|
The USS Tiburon is a Sci-Fi / Community service organization, launched January 1, 2005. Since then
the Tiburon has been defining itself, finding it’s place here in Denver, Colorado and in Starfleet:
The International Star Trek Fan Association Incorporated. The Tiburon’s focus is fun, family, and
service. We want to make sure that the fun of fandom never goes away, that family remains, and of
course something that is central in the fandom, community service, remains a major focus.
The Tiburon's regular events include our general meetings, game nights, region meetings with other
area ships/clubs, and Sci-Fi Friday's where we get together and watch Sci-Fi programming. See our
Calendar for more detials.

and a back-up or "ready" squad. The remaining two squads are held in reserve or can be deployed in a
support role.
