Welcome to the Public Educations D1SR website.

Public Education is one of the four cornerstones of the Auxiliary.. It is our mission to education and provide the most recent information on boating safety to the recreational boating public.

The way we can achieve this is through “team work” with the VE, PV and PA departments. Providing these other members with information will allow them to “spread the word” about the classes that we are offering. There are several classes other than the traditional ABS course that can be offered to the public, that I would like to see promoted. By adding these courses to your offerings you can bring in new people and increase their knowledge as well. Remember that we grow through education.

I know that we concentrate on the adults but don’t forget our youth. We have two youth courses that can be taught and the Wayside program can be used to assist a scout in earning a badge. The Boating Fun program is designed for the younger youth. Let’s get them involved and maybe we can also get the parents involved too.

I would like to take a moment and introduce the Assistant Staff Officers for Public Education and the areas that they are responsible for:

Assistant District Staff Officers

These people are responsible for guidance and support for the Division and Flotilla levels in Public Education. Together I hope that we can achieve the highest level of education that D1SR has ever see, but remember it takes “TEAM WORK”

Intent To Teach

We no longer use the Old 7023 form that was sent to Mike Kaff. We have introduced the new WOW site for Public Education in August 2011. All ADSO-PE's, SO-PE's,SO-CS, and FSO-PE and CS have been sent the information on how to set the site up. This new site assures us that anyone who is interested in a Boating Safely Course can find one near them just by putting in their Zip Code and hitting submit. I hope that all of you are using this site to advertise your classes. In early fall a flyer was added along with a map to the address where the class is going to be held. This can be duplicated and passed out or given to your MDV'S,VE'S, PV's when they make their visits. We need to work together to educate the public about recreation boating safety.
