Up Coming Events in Sector NY and Request for Personnel

To All Coxswains, OPFAC Operators and Boat Crew Personnel

 

below is a list of events that are coming up in the first weeks of September. They start in the area of Brooklyn and Staten Island and go all the way to Croton Point on the Hudson. The Tug Boat Race is covered but we need boats for all of the other events. Sept. 8 th, the day of our District meeting, I know many of you will have to go there but we need at least two or three boats for this event. I am asking you all to get your boats and crews in for this as soon as passable so I can let Sector know we have the boats and crews for these events.
