U.S. COAST GUARD AUXILIARY FLOTILLA COMMANDER WALTER DELEVICH (INSIDE) GREETS SHERIFF’S OFFICE OUTREACH COORDINATOR BARRY KURTZ (OUTSIDE) AT THE LEE COUNTY MARINE SAFETY EVENT APRIL 7TH.
The Wiggins Pass Flotilla of the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary gave safe boating tips, and the Lee County Sheriff’s Office offered ice cream at a joint marine safety event on Ft. Myers Beach April 7th. The Flotilla displayed it communications trailer as the sheriff’s ice cream truck provided visitors sweet treats as an incentive to hear messages about water safety.
Auxiliary members also talked with members of the public about careers in the Coast Guard. National Safe Boating Week, sponsored by the U.S. Coast Guard and the National Safe Boating Council, will be observed locally and nationally from May 16 to May 22.
