Our 2024 Reunion is open to all Navy veterans who previously served onboard the “Busy Lady” that don’t have an Association Membership.
This is a first for our Association, so you can try our Reunion out and have fun!
I just talked with Bill Krug, the USS Yosemite President. Bill said all sailors who served onboard the USS Yosemite are invited to attend as the President’s Special Guest for our 2024 Reunion. This means all prior ship crew members can sign up to attend our 2024 Reunion for themselves and their families without an Association sponsor. As the President’s Special Guest, you don’t have to be an Association Member to attend our 2024 Reunion.
As the President’s Special Guest, you can sign up for our 2024 Reunion at the Crown Plaza Airport Hotel Providence, RI on 24-27 April 2024 and participate in our entire Reunion, which includes Hotel reservations & stay and access to our Hospitality Room for free food and drinks, free breakfast, Casino Night, two Tours, USS Yosemite Association Meeting, Saturday Night Banquet Dinner, Raffle, and Auction.
This is a simple way to try out our Association and Reunion with no obligation, have fun, be with like-minded crew members, and be back onboard the “YO YO” in spirit.

Yosemite Sam is the traditional mascot of the US Navy ship that bears his name. In 1979, Warner Brother Studios gave permission to reproduce Yosemite Sam's likeness for the USS Yosemite use.

George,
Our Leadership Team hopes that your back will feel better by next year and you will change your mind about traveling to Providence Rhode Island. As a previous USS Yosemite crew member, you belong with us at the Reunion. We will introduce you to all our members, and you will undoubtedly make new friends. I am sure you will not regard it, have fun and enjoy yourself. We appreciate your efforts to attend our Reunion. It would be wonderful to see you there.
Thank you for being interested in the USS Yosemite and your old shipmates.
