The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary is the volunteer, civilian, non-military arm of the
U.S. Coast Guard. Established by Congress in 1939, it serves the boating public by teaching boating safety classes,
providing boat safety checks, and doing safety patrols on nearby lakes.
Auxiliarists also assist the regular Coast Guard in many additional ways.
Flotilla meetings are held the second Tuesday of each month at 1900 (7 PM) at
2235 W. Sunset, Springfield, MO. Anyone interested in boating
safety or joining the Auxiliary is welcome to attend.
We encourage every boat owner to have their boat safety checked every
year. You may schedule a vessel safety check by calling (417) 799-1402 during the day or
(417) 833-3922 in the evening. If your boat is on a trailer, you may bring it to
2235 W. Sunset, but please call first to make sure an examiner is
available. Or, you may
e-mail us and we will contact you to schedule a time and
a place.
