FROM THE COMMODORE
Fellow Auxiliarists,
Save the Dates for our 2025 Spring District Training & Annual Awards Banquet! More details to follow!
With memories of Fall DTRAIN still fresh, we want to share that we will be heading back to the same location for Spring 2025 DTRAIN. Our District Board Meeting, open to everyone, is set for Friday! Followed with a line-up of sessions and events planned for Friday evening, Saturday, and Sunday. We’re buzzing with excitement as we fine-tune our expanded course offerings and session plans. The U.S. Coast Guard Active Duty team will be there too, ready to share some thrilling new opportunities for D5NR Auxiliarists during our Saturday Annual Awards Banquet. We’d love for all our District members to join in, whether for the entire DTRAIN weekend or just for a day.
It’s going to be time well spent full of learning, laughter, and making new friends.
Looking forward to seeing you at DTRAIN!
Semper Paratus!
========================
The schedule, funding and registration details will follow in a future NOGI.
Never been to a DTRAIN?
Well! There has never been a better time to attend your first! District Training Events are a unique opportunity to get to know first-hand about all that the Auxiliary has to offer. Even more importantly, you’ll get to know fellow Auxiliarists from across the entire District and from all levels of the Auxiliary—from brand new members to District and National Officers. This is the perfect opportunity to make new friends and catch up with shipmates.
Old Hand at DTRAINs?
You know that the District training is first-rate, and the food and meals are great, but you also appreciate that some of the very best memories and personal exchanges happen outside the classes and between the sessions. Come back to DTRAIN to renew your friendships and make new ones—nothing beats being with like-minded folks in person.
From Friendly Informality to Longtime Traditions
Friday afternoons will be the Fifth District-Northern Region Board Meeting where the business of the District is done. The meeting is open to all members and it gives you an introduction to what it takes to run one of the premiere volunteer maritime services. In the evening we have Friday Fun Night—a themed party where everyone enjoys just being themselves with great company.
