About Us
Who We Are
Division 33 is a
U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary area
support unit operating in
District 8's Western Rivers Region of the United
States. We are a
civilian, non-military component of the
U.S. Coast
Guard. The Coast Guard
Auxiliary directly supports the Coast Guard in all of it's
missions except
military and law enforcement actions.
What We Do
Our
fundamental mission is to provide Administrative, Training, Communication,
and Supervisory Support to the Flotillas within our Area Of Responsibility
(AOR). This AOR includes the
State of Nebraska, and the western edge of the
State of Iowa,
the very heart of the
central plains region.
When We Meet
The
Division Board meets once every month throughout the calendar year.
In instances where attendance is impractical, the Division Board may
transact routine business by mail. The current monthly meeting
schedule is the fourth Thursday of each month at 7:00p.m.
To be most responsive to our
members needs, the
Division Board meets
together with the Division Staff during the odd numbered months of the
year (January, March, May, July, September, and November).
Publications
The
Division produces a quarterly magazine for its members called the "Missouri
River Skipper". The publication includes a message from the
Division Captain and articles from Division staff and individual
Flotillas within the division.
