The USS BOSTON Shipmates organization has two purposes:
- Collecting and preserving information about the contributions of BOSTON ships and crews to the history of our great country.
- Reuniting men who served aboard a USS BOSTON so they can renew old acquaintances, rekindle rich memories, and swap sea stories.
Our reunions are planned, organized, and run entirely by our volunteer committee members, many of whom have had a part in managing ten or more USS BOSTON reunions. Unlike other organizations, we have one central committee with a wealth of experience. Two of our committee members are Certified Meeting Planners.
There is no business meeting at our reunion, just comradeship and clean family fun. Wives and widows (and other family members) are welcome, and enjoy themselves. Up to nine widows typically attend the reunion each year.
2011 Reunion 
The next reunion will be held in Chicago.
The dates are July 14 through 17, 2011.
You already know a lot about Chicago, but here's a link for things to do in
Chicago...
The Doubletree Oak Brook Hotel will be the sole Official Headquarters Hotel for our 2011 reunion.
Our special reunion rate is $83 per night INCLUDING tax (a great rate!). You might want to take advantage of this rate and extend your stay
before and after the reunion. The rate is effective from July 11th through the 21st.
