"ONE OF THE OLDEST IF NOT ALREADY THE OLDEST FAN CLUB ORGANIZATION FOR BATTLESTAR GALACTICA"

"There are those who believe that life here began out there, far across the universe, with tribes of humans who may have been the forefathers of the Egyptians, or the Toltecs, or the Mayans. Some believe that there may yet be brothers of man who even now fight to survive, somewhere beyond the heavens."

" ON JULY 1, 2023, THE BATTLESTAR GALACTICA FAN CLUB CELEBRATES 23 YEARS! " 

Seekers CAP 08/13/16

The Seekers were requested to perform the CAP tonight due to maintenance being performed on the Vipers.
