Mike – I was trolling the web this morning and came upon your web site. Awesome and very impressive. Starting January 1, 2011 I am stepping into the office of Staff Officer, Public Education for USCG Auxiliary here in West Michigan. I was wondering if I might be able to use your PowerPoint on marketing boat safety to my fellow shipmates here in Michigan. I love your enthusiasm! Do I have your permission to bring your ideas to my AOR and use your presentation?
I have sent you an email and additional information and links to help your Public Education effort –
Thanks for your interest in and for helping further Boating Education. Let me know what your group thinks of the information.
You have a very good website with so much detailed information.
