Future USS Idaho nuclear submarine received by the Navy, dubbed ‘Gem of the Fleet’
GROTON, Connecticut — Last week, the future USS Idaho nuclear submarine was delivered to the U.S. Navy at its facility in Groton, Connecticut.
The nuclear-powered submarine is set to be commissioned in spring 2026, sailing the world for the next 30 years.
Before it commissions this upcoming spring, the USS IDAHO crew will undergo training and mission exercises.
Virginia-class submarine program manager Captain Mike Hollenbach comments on how driven Idaho is in the military space.
“Idaho represents the hard work and tenacity of shipbuilders, industry partners and Navy personnel to deliver the best undersea warfighting platform to the fleet.”
The future Idaho submarine will be the fifth Navy ship to be named for the state of Idaho. The first one, a wooden-hulled storeship, was commissioned in 1866.

Trendy, Viral Street Clothing Brand Announces Popup at Village at Meridian
Shopping for fashion…in the Treasure Valley.
What comes to mind? Do we have enough options to keep your closet stocked and trendy, or do you rely on the internet for that?
Thanks to The Village at Meridian, tons of new and large clothing brands have come to our area that otherwise, have not been options for in-person shopping. But what is missing? We still don’t have a Zara, for example.
One ‘trendy’ and popular clothing line that does NOT have a permanent location in Idaho has decided they’re going to be ‘popping up’ and you guessed it, it’s going to be at The Village at Meridian.
Have you ever heard of ‘Lonely Ghost’? The streetwear brand is easy to spot around town, frequently. The brand touts a goal of inclusivity and positivity in the ‘streetwear space’.
The webpage dedicated to Lonely Ghost’s Meridian Pop-Up says the following:
Boise, we’re coming back! If you were there last time, you already know this isn’t just a pop-up. It’s the kind of pop up everyone talks about after. The people, the experience, the energy. And if you missed it the first time? Here’s your opportunity to right your wrong. Bring your friends. Bring your heart. Bring the version of yourself that’s been craving something real. We’ll be there—waiting with open arms, new pieces we made just for this, and maybe even a few surprises.
One of the most popular critiques online so far? The location isn’t in Boise–it’s in Meridian!
Come on, Lonely Ghost…give Meridian their flowers!
Expect the pop-up location to be popular and BUSY! The event will be held on April 17th and 18th from 10:00 in the morning until 9:00 at night, both days.
The exact address of the pop-up is: 2126 N Eagle Road, Suite 120, Meridian ID 83646
