Welcome to the home page of the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary, 1st Southern Region. As part of Team Coast Guard, we serve the tri-state area including Northern New Jersey, Eastern New York, Connecticut and Southern Vermont. This includes the Hudson River Valley and Lake Champlain.
The Coast Guard Auxiliary is composed of ambitious civilian volunteers donating tens of thousands of hours doing Vessel Safety Checks, Public Education Courses, Search and Rescue, Maritime Domain Awareness operations and Marine Safety. We assist the United States Coast Guard in all its functions except direct Law Enforcement and Military missions. We volunteer in the community, on the water and in the air ensuring Boating Safety and Public Awareness of the marine environment.
Join with us in assisting the United States Coast Guard. Take advantage of the opportunity to participate in providing public boating information and making recreational boating safer, while enjoying the fellowship that being a member of the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary offers.
