Auxiliarists Promote RBS While Assisting Ohio Watercraft Division
Auxiliarists helped the Ohio Watercraft Division promote recreational boating safety at safety fairs at state lakes and on the Ohio River. Over 30,000 people attended the American Festival where the Auxiliary had an RBS Booth. While emphasizing lifejacket wear and the dangers of alcohol consumption before and during boating, the public was very interested in the Auxiliary’s role as part of the Coast Guard and Homeland Security.
