BoatUS PRESENTS U.S. COAST GUARD AUXILIARY FLOTILLA 10-13
WITH “BEST FLOTILLA IN THE NATION” AWARD

U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary Flotilla 10-13 of Wyckoff, NJ was presented with the “Best Flotilla in the Nation” award by BoatUS at the Auxiliary’s National Conference held recently in Nashville, TN.

Flotilla 10-13, of the First District, Southern Region, bested 17 other regional nominees for the top honors. The award caps a process that evaluates achievements in the areas of membership growth and training, operational support of U.S. Coast Guard missions, vessel safety check activity, public education, and community awareness of the Auxiliary’s role.

“When the Auxiliary evaluated all the criteria, Flotilla 10-13 stood out amongst its peers,” said Ruth Wood, presenter of the award and BoatUS Foundation president. “Their level of participation in each area was significantly higher than the next closest nominee – their performance clearly raised the bar,” she continued.

The District Commodore of Flotilla 10-13 during the evaluation period was William Huling and the Flotilla Commander was Kenneth Hall.
