 =====Lessons learned=====
 ====For Scout Camp====
   - **For Camp Rangers** -- Contact a local Vessel Examiner early in the year, ideally before the boating season gets busy. If no Vessel Examiners are listed in the VE database, contact your local Coast Guard Auxiliary flotilla to request a vessel examination. Depending on the size of your vessels, the Vessel Safety Check may take anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour each.
   - **For Vessel Examiners** -- Contact the local Scout Council to offer Vessel Safety Checks a their Scout camp. The best time of year for this is before camp opens in June. You will want to talk to the person responsible for the council's camps or property. The //Ranger// is the adult responsible for the camp and is a good person to start with. Remember to bring copies of the //Federal Requirements & Safety Tips for Recreational Boats// publication, as well as information about your flotilla. Be prepared to answer questions about recreational boating safety and about the Coast Guard Auxiliary. Don't assume that you will be contacted. Be sure to alert the Ranger about upcoming public education opportunities in your area.]
