The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary is comprised of over 27,000 volunteers dedicated to safer recreational boating on the waters of the United States. These individuals undergo special training so that they are able to assist and augment the United States Coast Guard in its non-military, non-law enforcement programs such as: free public vessel safety checks, public boating education, safety patrols, search and rescue, and aids to navigation.
We are Division 10 of the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, District 1 Northern Region (D1NR), with Flotilla members located in Central Massachusetts. Division 10 is comprised of these six area Flotillas:
| Flotilla 10-01, Worcester | Flotilla 10-02, Tri-State | Flotilla 10-03, Gardner |
| Flotilla 10-04, Assabet | Flotilla 10-07, Clinton | Flotilla 10-10, Auburn |
