Description
From the 2002 zine, RanDoM Zine:
With the end of the first-run broadcast of Star Trek: Voyager, Mr. McNeill and club staff decided to bring the club's active life to a close, and the club ceased formal operations on December 31, 2001.
Both the website and the mailing list that began with RanDoM Flight are continuing into the indefinite future, and any fan of Robert Duncan McNeill is invited to join the mailing list and to continue to use the resources provided by the website www.robertduncanmcneill.net.
RanDoM Flight not only served as a forum for the fans of RDM, but also became the means for fans to return to the community. Over the six-plus-year existence of RanDoM Flight, the club and its members, with the support of Robert Duncan McNeill, raised over $52,000 for charity by holding auctions and sponsoring two charity brunch cruises that provided the fans of Star Trek: Voyager with a rare opportunity to meet the cast of the show in relaxed and intimate surroundings.
For those who are interested, a limited number of the print publications put out by RanDoM Flight, including its newsletters and fiction zines, will become available to the public in 2002.
