To enter the USCG Training Center for this event your name (and the names of any guests) must be on a list previously submitted to the Coast Guard. This list is developed from the club roster with changes that you submit. The name on your photo ID must match that on the list. If, for example, the roster calls you "Bill" and your ID says "William," you might be denied entry. To correct your name or add a guest, click here  to send an e-mail to the webmaster.
