Dan Beauchemin, FSO-PV

Program Visitation in April did not reach enough of our partners to meet Flotilla 96 objectives. This was partly due to member travel and spending time with family during the Easter break.

We have recently identified new marinas and boating partners in our AOR and we need more PV members to promote our public education courses. New partners will include dealers and outfitters of paddle boats, kayaks and canoes. PV will coordinate with VE, as these dealers have said they would like to have nonmotorized vessels examined.

All program visitors are encouraged to participate in May. I will contact each current member of the team to determine how we can do better in the off-season to meet our goals. Anyone who would like to help increase our coverage please come forward. Your help will be appreciated
