with hundreds of non-paid volunteers. The volunteers are required to pay for their own
uniforms, life jackets and other equipment they may need. Their fund raisers are important to
help these volunteers to pay for the supplies that are needed. Their main focus this year will be
watch for drunk drivers on the water. The alcohol limit has been lowered from 1 to .08 this
year, the same as driving a car. They urge all boaters to have a safety sticker on their boats.
They indicated that they will not stop a boat that has the sticker. This is for the sheriff
department only and does not include the Coast Guard. The Federal Government gave a $850
grant to this association for a new boat. There are still tickets available for the Midland
Rendezvous. Please support Rick Romatz and attend this event.
