Pentagon Federal Credit Union 

The Pentagon Federal Credit Union now offers membership to Auxiliarists.
Steven M. Budar, CGAuxA Chairman/CEO and Frank R. Pollack, PFCU
President/CEO announced this opportunity to Auxiliary members in a mailing
during December 2006. The agreement includes a no-annual fee VISA Platinum
Cash Rewards credit card provides 1% cash back to members as well as 0.25%
going to support Auxiliary programs. Joining the Pentagon Federal Credit
Union opens the door to all of their superior-rated financial services. The
previous agreement with MBNA-BOA for providing members an Auxiliary credit
card has expired. Members who wish to retain that card may do so but
MBNA-BOA no longer provides financial support in support of Auxiliary
programs.

National Marina Day: 11 August 2007

August 11th has been designated as National Marina Day by the Association of
Marina Industries. This event will provide the Auxiliary with a great
opportunity to develop and/or strengthen our Recreational Boating Safety and
Security partnerships. A Team approach is suggested, utilizing our RBS
specialists (PE, PV & VE) and supported by a public affairs member to
maximize the delivery of our RBS message. The Team could establish a menu of
services for that day: VSC station, PE workshops (GPS, life jacket
selection/fitting, AWW, etc.), and/or a boating safety exhibit.
