Membership in the Coast Guard Auxiliary is open to U.S. citizens,
at least 17 years old, and pass a basic background check. There
are no upper age limits or height/weight standards, although for
operational activities, you must be physically able to perform certain
tasks. There are no minimum service hours – you can serve
as little or as much as you want.
You do not have to own a boat or participate in water-based operations
to join the Auxiliary.
With nationwide membership, the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary actively
provides safety patrols on area waterways and regularly meets with
the boating public at marinas and in classrooms. We also directly
assist the U.S. Coast Guard in non-law enforcement programs such
as search and rescue, and marine environmental protection.
The Auxiliary needs people with leadership, administrative and
technical skills (such as web site design, computer server administration,
graphic design, photography, videography, communications, public
relations/public affairs, instruction and instructional design,
and personnel services) to support those Auxiliaries involved in
the recreational boating safety and operations & marine safety
missions.
Come join us and see what we are all about! If you plan
on attending a meeting please send an email to info@flotilla1-2.org
