Friday morning, August 31. The Auxiliary’s National Conference attracts many members from far away locales within the States. It often attracts distinguished visitors from volunteer organizations around the world.

Eleven attendees representing the volunteer maritime organizations of Canada, the Philippines, and Curacao/Aruba are meeting with us and discussing relationships and ideas to the benefit of all.

Past National Commodore Everett Tucker and Chairman of International Affairs is acting as the official host to our visitors. "These meetings present great value to the men and women who attend. They are given the opportunity to share new ideas and discuss common problems," said COMO Tucker.
