ATTENTION SEATTLE SAILORS
PORT CALL – ANNAPOLIS, MARYLAND
SEPTEMBER 25-28, 2025
We will pull into Annapolis on Thursday afternoon, September 25th. For the Lifers you will notice this is one day shorter than the previous Reunion Port Calls. It's a good thing we are no longer on active duty. Not only does the Department of the Navy think Seattle sailors need less shore time, but now DOGE thinks the same way!!! But our training aboard Seattle taught us how to have 6 days of fun in just 3 days!
Muster when you arrive! The Hospitality Room will be open 1200 hours on Thursday to get your registration bags and visit. Beverages will be available and we will have some food available later in the evening.
Friday begins with the sailors having their business meeting and the spouses and guests will have their special breakfast gathering, another popular event. Many ladies believe breakfast is almost as much fun as visiting another navy ship!!! Friday will be spent on the grounds of the US Naval Academy with our own special tour guide and alumnus, Captain Craig Honour. Lunch will be at the Academy and a buffet dinner will be back at the hotel
Saturday is a Free Day. You will have lots of choices to choose from, as Annapolis is not like Augusta Bay, Sicily. Banquet night is Saturday which is always the highlight of the Reunion. Captain Honour has scheduled Captain James K. Tolbert another former Commanding Officer as our guest speaker.
Sunday includes Farewell Breakfast and checkout.checkout.
If you fly, you most likely will go to BWI or Washington National. BWI is about 30 minutes from Annapolis. Our hotel does NOT have shuttle service so our contact recommended using Uber or Lyft. Estimated cost is $25-$50 depending on the time of day.

See you in Annapolis!
