a unit of
United States Power Squadrons® Sail & Power Boating Boating is
fun well show you how.
District 31 of USPS® is
one of 33 regional districts which comprise the United
States Power Squadrons®, a national, non-profit boating organization devoted
to safe boating through education. Our volunteer members consist of enthusiastic
sailors and powerboaters. Our organization, also known as America's Boating Clubsm,
tries to meet the needs of all boaters, both power and sail, big and small, by providing
public boating education courses to all current or prospective boaters. We also
offer advanced boating education and fraternal boating to their members. Districts are made up of local squadrons within their own regional
areas. It is the squadrons who conduct public boating courses and are the real
heart of the USPS organization. Districts offer guidance by being a conduit to the
national level and also provide support by being actively involved in meeting the
squadrons needs. Our congenial group of approximately 450 active
members and family members in District 31 enjoy many types of boating. These
include long river cruises and short boat rides on area lakes. We have the
benefit of unique natural settings and man-made resources located
within District 31, which greatly adds to our boating enjoyment. District 31
currently has five squadrons: four squadrons in Oklahoma, and one in Arkansas.
