Flotilla 14-08 New Baltimore, Michigan
HOME PAGE
The United States
Coast Guard Auxiliary was established by Congress in 1939 to assist the Coast
Guard in promoting boating safety. It includes
some 30,000 members -
from all walks of life - who receive special training so that they may be a
functional part of Coast Guard Forces. Auxiliarists assist the Coast Guard in
non-law enforcement programs such as public education, vessel safety checks,
safety patrols, search and rescue, maritime security and environmental
protection and Coast Guard Academy Introduction programs for youth.
Auxiliarists volunteer more than 2 million hours annually to benefit other boaters and their families. These hours spent saving lives, assisting boaters in distress, conducting courtesy vessel examinations, and teaching students in boating and water safety courses (see the National Public Affairs web page) save taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars every year. If you are interested, check out the rest of our web pages and the links to the National, District, and Division Auxiliary web pages, and consider joining Flotilla 14-08.
