Boating Safety Tip of the Day
Stand-on Vessel Awareness

Even when you are the stand-on vessel you must always watch the give-way vessel. Know the rules of the road and be safe.

I have seen a number of Google searches for the CGAUX WOW WordPress theme that directed searchers here to DrumPoint.org. This is the home of the CGAUX WOW theme. A similar version is now in use at flotilla85.com.

If you are the CS officer for an Auxiliary flotilla or other Auxiliary site webmaster and you would like a version of the theme, one can be created for you at no cost. The theme is not available for use on private sites. It was designed, based on the CS guidelines at the time, to come close to matching the look and feel of the WOW templates and WOW sites in use by the offical sites of the Coast Guard Auxiliary.

Please send your request to the webmaster via the Contact Tab above or email fso-cs at drumpoint.org. Your name and email address will be compared to the Auxiliary officer data before a copy of the theme is sent.

in your request please indicate your district, division, and flotilla as well as your flotilla name. This information appears in the header. If there is a specific header image that you would like used that should also be sent with your request. An image will be selected for you if no image is provided. You can then change the image yourself at a later time. The current theme is three columns wide.

Once you obtain the theme there are things you need to do to “wake it up.” (There is work to do.) In order to use the new side menu functionality you must create a side menu at your WordPress site and activate it. You must also choose your plugins. District 54 PA and CS officers may request access to the District 54 PA Site where some helpful WordPress information is available. Should the number of requests warrant a private forum may be used to provide support.
