A Note from the Editor
Welcome to the June & July 2004 Edition of the Colonial Newsletter. There are two original Battlestar Galactica marathons coming up on the Sci-Fi Channel. The first is on July 22nd and the second is on August 9th. The complete schedule is listed below. Also of note, Richard "Apollo" Hatch's 6th hardcover Battlestar Galactica novel was released on June 1st. More information to follow. Congratulations to the Colonial Fan Force for succeeding in raising $10,000 in 3 months. A brand-new goal is to raise $2,000 over the next 60 days. This will allow the Battlestar Galactica revival advertisement for Daily Variety to go full color. Be sure to check out the announcement below and participate and spread the word! And last but certainly not least, we would like to salute Don Bergren (Titon) of ColonialFleets.com, Darrell Lawrence (Warrior) of BattlestarGalactica.com, and Sandy (TwoBrainedCylon) of Cylon.org. Although these webmasters have stepped down, we wish them the best and we know that the new administrators will do well.
See you next Edition!
