Major Accomplishment And Events: :	No Report
Programs of Note: :	After consulting with Ted Chatham, and obtaining and reviewing instructor and student study materials, I am hoping to place AUXSEA on the calendar for Thursdays in October. Based on correspondence with Ted, and also my review of the material, we will look to complete the course in 4 sessions, including the exam. The hope is to make it accessible to all members, but especially our operations team. There will be study material due before each class including the first class. This model may make it easier to obtain the benefits of a classroom setting, while recognizing committing for extended periods for the classroom instruction is a challenge. I have a completed outline for each of the 4 dates.

Member Training (FSO-MT)
Eric C. Dexter

Major accomplishments and Events:
Working to schedule AUX WEA for the fall AUX OP class. Class was most requested by members, many of whom are waiting for this specifically because it has not been offered in the Flotilla for a very long time. Pulled teacher and student materials together, and noted that the course has recently been updated. Emailed SO-MT, Ted Chatham for guidance on instructors and timetable. Continued work with individual members with questions regarding where to find training opportunities and requirements.

Performance versus Goals:
AUX Communications course is being wrapped up by John Hume, and members will take the exam this coming week, with a target of Tuesday. Ted Chatham recommended an instructor who had recently taken AUX WEA, to teach it. Since none is available, it was suggested that a pilot or very experienced mariner teach it. It should not be taught in a “one chapter ahead” manner. Given the recent updates, and before selecting an instructor, it is unclear how many weeks should be scheduled for the fall offering.

Member Training (FSO-MT)
Eric C. Dexter

Major accomplishments and Events:
AUX ACN on Calendar AUX COM on Calendar Reached out to Ted Chatham to verify AUX OP instructors at the division level. Working to ensure availability of more than one in case unanticipated availability issues arise with primary. Emailing instructors in an effort to make the connection, and they know who to reach out to going forward. Also confirming availability and determining process for proctored examination, as necessary. Verifying classroom availability at the base, unless enrollment exceeds capacity. Working to create a member training table of events published to the meeting notice and with a link to table available on the website, with the meeting notice also being archived to the website. Spreadsheet created by Peter Poulin to monitor mentor assignments and mandatory training for new members, simultaneously. This is likely particularly important until they lock into a track. I am adopting Peter’s work, as a new member training tool, and will assume the responsibility of maintaining the spreadsheets accuracy.

Performance versus Goals:
We will be behind targets for a few more months here, but significant gains have been made organizationally. Also, thanks in large part to the help of other staff, training opportunities are scheduled for 2018.

Update of Major Program:
Planning for AUX WEA for Fall 2018. Verifying instructors, setting dates. Will verify classroom availability closer to that time. Emailing all mentors with Flotilla 21 mentoring program information, as well as updated new member “next steps guide” to assist in the process of mentoring and tracking progress, as well as to help guide the process with their mentees.

Concerns:
No Report

For the Good of the Auxiliary:
For Discussion: Are people signing up for AUX OP Courses? What is the best way to ensure the space we need is available, based on enrollment for AUX OP training? Use of all-hands email to message opportunities. Does membership know that these specialized classes are available and upcoming? Would an all-hands be the way to promote these opportunities? Should I be speaking monthly, briefly, at the membership meeting to discuss these opportunities? C-School is upcoming. There are prerequisites and pre-work that must be completed before eligible to attend? Same question - Is a carefully crafted all-hands the right way to promote this? ICS 300 is being offered by FEMA in April. My understanding is that this is an intermediate offering for ICS, and that a two day course is an excellent way to accomplish this level of ICS. ICS 200 is a prerequisite. This is pitched as a real time-saver. In flotilla 2-1, who is our target audience?

Member Training (FSO-MT)
Eric C. Dexter

Major accomplishments and Events:
Addressed membership at monthly meeting to update them on progress made in member training. While much of those efforts have been centered around new members, or behind the scenes, used the opportunity to bring it out to existing membership, with an intent to work from there to perform the member training responsibilities with existing members going forward. Continued committee work on new member/mentor by updating materials per committee feedback, and attending new member/mentor meeting. I think all committee members are pleased and excited with the ideas generated, and the early execution of those ideas. Attended the Prospective new Member Orientation, and presented information about myself, my role with the Flotilla and shared very high level information about the various opportunities that exist for them after joining. Worked on descriptions for FSO assistant positions, describing opportunity and responsibilities that could be delegated by the FSO to the assistant. Created an existing members opportunities handout that is more appropriate for existing, longer term members. Will send as an all hands to existing members upon approval. That email has been prepared, but not yet approved. Created an all-hands email addressing mandated training work, rationale (why it is important) and consequences of not completing it. Email offered the session that Everett Henry helped to secure for 9/30, for any member interested in or having trouble with completing the work. Received approval for that email and sent it. Will take a final headcount and firm up by Thursday of this week.

Performance versus Goals:
It was good to round the corner into working with existing membership. I am behind my goals on this. Next major communication and work, also behind, is to get my first AUXOP training set up, as well as a system in place to make sure those are regularly offered on a predictable schedule.

Navigation Systems (FSO-NS)
Billy G. Thornton

Major accomplishments and Events:
As of SAT, 23 SEP, paton verifications and re-checks for Casco Bay were completed. Completion took longer than expected this year due, in part, to there being only one facility available to start, then competing demands or facility use. Another contributor was waiting (hoping) for approval of a 20-ft center console as an operational facility which would allow for quick/efficient transit to Harpswell Sound and New Meadows River (both 55nm round trips); paperwork submitted mid-July has yet to result in any such approval as of this date. Hopefully, there will be less boat issues next season.

Performance versus Goals:
The delay in achieving completion of PATON verification was due, in part, to the lack of available Operational Facilities and/or competing demands for a boat(s) for other training or marine safety activity (safety screening). Also, there is a need for a smaller, fast/shallow draft boat to get to the distant locations more efficiently (both time and fuel). Paperwork for such an OpFac has been submitted buy has yet to be approved for use by those beyond the flotilla.

Major accomplishments and Events:
Had a good start to the season on PATON reporting and now attempting to complete the remaining ones. Last weekend was a trip to New Meadows River, the other side of our AOR. This weekend may be another long trip to Harpswell Sound to complete observations and data collection. Would also like to recognize my crew on different underway occasions for participating in 2 successful SAR cases. 1. Assisting 9 kayakers in no-visibility fog to make their way back to East End Beach and while diverting two different powerboats that likely would have driven thru the group. 2. Retrieving a kayaker who had capsized, was hypothermic from being in the water for an hour, and unable to assist himself; provided F/A on board and arranged to transport to medical personnel on shore.

Performance versus Goals:
The delay in achieving completion of PATON verification was due, in part, to the lack of available Operational Facilities and/or competing demands for a boat(s) for other training or marine safety activity (safety screening).

Navigation Systems (FSO-NS)
Billy G. Thornton

Major accomplishments and Events:
1. Nav Systems: Of 72 patons in Casco Bay,53 (74%) needed to be verified or rechecked on past discrepancies. To date, 42 (79%) have been taken care of with 11 remaining. Then a large number of regulatory (aquaculture) buoys approved by Maine's Dept of Marine Resources have become apparent that are not in the CG permit data base. This will be increasing the paton reporting workload. In addition, I assisted Jim Katz, Saco Bay Flotilla, in verifying the 17 aids in the Saco River. 2. Other activities: VE and UPV exams, including Portland Paddle's rental kayak armada; Operations - conducted patrols and underway training for boat crew; provide facility support for CG's Atlantic Strike Team to observe boom deployment to close off Fore River in event of oil spill in Ptld Hbr; participated in CG "open house" at the moorings in conjunction with Ptld's Walk the Working Waterfront (>500 people attended); assisted in water safety promotion for K-2nd grade at Scarborough elementary school.

Member Training (FSO-MT)
Eric C. Dexter

Major accomplishments and Events:
Completed work on new member handout that communicates, in a clear and concise way, the next steps that new members must undertake to become active members of the flotilla. The handout discusses how, and where, to complete mandated training, and how to record and submit the results of their work. It provides a self-study option and references the effort I will work on to create another mandated training session where equipment and direction will be provided by flotilla officers/members/instructors. This effort will be ongoing, with the next session place and time TBD. The handout also discusses all known missions/tracks new members can follow, including missions that are unique to our locale and region. It also identifies immediate needs within the flotilla and at Station South Portland. Instead of being broken down by broad mandate, this handout discusses these proficiencies by how quickly they can be obtained, and works to make the case that becoming proficient in something quickly will help them fully engage with the flotilla early, while they work to obtain longer term proficiencies over time and simultaneously with their activities as newer members. There is some discussion of finding tracks that are complementary to their soft skill-sets. There is additional discussion encouraging them to ask questions. Attended new member meeting, presented the information, passed out the handout for future reference, and introduced myself with contact information. Initial feedback has been positive, and three new members have followed up with the same question, indicating a necessary update to the document that will be in "version 1.2".

Performance versus Goals:
I have now engaged new members and plan to continue to engage them as they depart from the new member class. This is behind where I want to be, but a positive step. I plan to continue to engage new member classes, and would consider providing a similar discussion when we are recruiting prospective members, and where appropriate (conclusion of Boating Skills public education class?) I have engaged existing members on a case by case basis, but still need to do more to engage existing members, as a whole, and those that are struggling with their track.

Update of Major Program:
No Report

Concerns:
I have two concerns relating to member training. First, I need to know where to look, to understand the specific requirements to obtain proficiency with each mission. It remains unclear to me where to find this information. Currently, this part of my job is very time consuming and is being handled on a case by case basis. I am finding help from people familiar with the training requirements of their own proficiency, but this is very inefficient. I can't imagine there is not a clear resource for member training officers. Secondly, I am concerned with the balance between the small numbers of active members, taxing them with too much on their plate, and putting them in positions that don't match their own interests or soft skills. An example where this concerns me for member training is mentoring. Mentors need to be committed, more knowledgeable than new members, and social - and it is not recommended that they are staff officers (who tend to be busy, specialized and a good recourse for their specialty. Do we have anyone who can be successful in this position? This position is very important to the successful integration of new members. The wrong people may have the opposite effect. We should discuss ideas that strike this balance.

For the Good of the Auxiliary:
Took my four hour CPR and First Aid refresher course. Finished my BQ qualification, after taking the Sailing Skills and Seamanship Course, by taking the test required, ending what was possibly the longest lasting IQ run in the flotilla's history. Contacted Ken Caprio and Set up first of three Gate Watchstanding training days. Referred new member Heather Levasseur into the new member course. Heather is a Navy Veteran, very interested in helping active duty and veterans. She is currently a volunteer for the VA and is excited to get involved in our Flotilla. Learned a lot about the Aux Air program at the member meeting, and can do a better job of relating the information about that mission to new and prospective members

Navigation Systems (FSO-NS)
Billy G. Thornton

Major accomplishments and Events:
In addition to weekly watchstanding, participated in boat crew training and 4-hr TCT; attended VE annual workshop. Particiapted in VE day at Centerboard Yacht Club. Have conducted UPV and recreational exams. For NavSystems: (1) budget issues and AuxDir records for who is qualified for boat crew/coxswain have contributed to delays in scheduling patrols; (2) we now have a PATON patrol approved for Sunday, 04 JUN focusing on more immediate patons including discrepancies at Mill Cove (Sport Marina); (3) have offered any assistance (crew or coxswain) to Saco (24), POMO (28), and B'bay (25) as may be required for paton work in their areas...B'bay seems ok on their own, but I may be providing support to Saco and POMO.

Susan J. Polans

Major accomplishments and Events:
Attended the 3 day CFV class given at 2 Monument Square. Four AUX members have completed the Container training class and qualified as Auxiliary Assistant Container Inspectors. Dick Robichaud and I were asked to attend the Maine Charter Boat Captains meeting at Cabelas. We gave a talk about UPV examinations and why they are important. After the meeting, all came up to request contact information so they could contact us for examinations on their boats. Noel March and I gave an interactive talk to 32 pre-kindergarten students about life jackets and ocean pollution at the Portside Learning Center. Thanks go out for Noel for arranging this and to Bill Thornton for loaning child life preservers for this presentation.

Performance versus Goals:
Waiting to be given a schedule for Container Inspections so we can put our training and qualification to work. Also, waiting for a schedule of CFV examinations so we can conduct supervised examinations and obtain this long-awaited qualification.

Update of Major Program:
We will be traveling back and forth to Portsmouth to work with at least two members of Flotilla 28 who would like to be qualified as UPV Examiners. Our UPV PowerPoint is now ready to be presented to the Coast Guard Boarding Officers. Chief Porter is contacting Boarding Officers at all CG Stations in Maine. We hope to stress the importance of paying attention to this area of commercial vessel activity.

Concerns:
Since our UPV team will be spending much time traveling to distant areas of the State this year I will be contacting the CG to see if it would be possible to use a CG van for these calls.

For the Good of the Auxiliary:
Boats are being launched and temperatures are warming. If there is interest, I would like to give a recreational vessel examiner class to members in our Flotilla. We could use more examiners on our team.

Member Training (FSO-MT)
Eric C. Dexter

Major accomplishments and Events:
Created an MT plan for 2017, with known objectives applied to a calendar timeline. Began working with individual members that are having issues with training. These have been mostly technical and not directional. Began discussing directional opportunities with some new members. Drafted an "All Hands" email to membership, offering myself as a resource and submitted to FC and VFC for approval. Completed the program visitor qualification course and the auxiliary instructor course, the latter of which was necessary for the MT staff position. Made contact with Sally Snowman to try to select a date to get her to Portland to discuss the two missions/member opportunities relating to Boston Light. Working to determine which existing members are not yet in a track to contact each and work to change that. Signed up on mycgaux to be notified of new members so that doesn't happen going forward.

Performance versus Goals:
I expect to have an all-hands email approved and sent in a few days. Will follow up email with discussion and email outreach to all members, categorizing and offering all available missions. At VFCs request working on a "Pathways " piece for new members, to get new members excited and engaged. Continuing to look at Member Training, the basics and how we can improve this within the Flotilla, with a focus group in April.

Update of Major Program:
Auxiliarist Financial Councilor, is new opportunity, for professionals in support of the gold side.

Concerns:
Not all members are engaged. Trying to treat all like motivated, self starters to stay out of the weeds. I plan on engaging members to help keep them excited.

Also, been in touch with other flotillas with regard to their need for AVs, coxswain/boatcrew, and boats in order to complete verifications in their AORs. At this point, Casco Bay is OK in fulfilling its mission. For all, the intent is to get aids check early as possible for benefit of boating season and freeing up Operational Facilities for other use.
