About the US Coast Guard Auxiliary

Dedicated volunteers working tirelessly so you can navigate with confidence—no peg leg required.

Who We Are

The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary is the uniformed volunteer component of the United States Coast Guard, established by Congress in 1939. Our mission is to support the Coast Guard in nearly all of its service areas, except for direct law enforcement or military engagements. Think of us as the trusty sidekick, but with snappy uniforms and better jokes about maritime misadventures.

What We Do

Around Table Rock Lake and across the country, our dedicated members:

Our Partnership with Boat Safe on Table Rock Lake

“Boat Safe on Table Rock Lake” is proud to be sponsored by the US Coast Guard Auxiliary. Our shared goal is to educate, empower, and encourage safe boating practices. Whether you’re a first-time paddler or a seasoned skipper, we believe every trip on the water should be as smooth as a calm lake at sunrise (minus the occasional goose squad).

Join Us

Interested in going beyond just boating safely? The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary welcomes volunteers who are passionate about community service, public education, and wearing snazzy uniforms. We provide extensive training and opportunities to serve both your local community and the nation in a meaningful way.
