City of Lewes, DE Proclaims National Safe Boating Week
National Safe Boating Week has been proclaimed in Lewes, Delaware. The proclamation was made in the Lewes City Councilroom on Monday, April 8th, 2024 by Mayor Andrew Williams before the city council and four members of USCG Auxiliary Flotilla 12-09 based at the Indian River Inlet Coast Guard station.
Mayor Williams, after reading the proclamation, stressed how important the USCG Auxiliary is to provide an all-volunteer service to the local communities and how important it is for the boating public to be educated on operating a boat safely, to boat sober, and to always wear a life vest when boating.
Flotilla Commander Mike Moran presented Mayor Williams with a USCG Auxiliary challenge coin, and thanked the Mayor and city council for their participation in National Safe Boating Week, 2024.
National Safe Boating Week is May, 18-25, 2024. It has been a national observance by the USCG Auxiliary since 1957.
