A Message From                           The Foundation Board of Trustees    COAST GUARD COMMUNITY FOUNDATION    Welcome Friends and Neighbors,    The Cape May County Coast Guard Community Foundation Board of Trustees is hon-  ored that you are joining us for the 6th Annual Cape May County Coast Guard Commu-  nity Festival, a family-friendly event honoring the men and women of the United States  Coast Guard.    The festival offers a unique opportunity for our community to tour Training Center Cape  May, the Nation’s only “boot camp” for Coast Guard recruits. Activities include tours of  Coast Guard vessels and helicopters, thrilling search and rescue demonstrations led  by the Air Station Atlantic City, and performances by the Coast Guard Drill Team and  Recruit Band. Additional festival offerings include scenic tours of the Cape May Harbor,  a maritime-themed Youth Art Show at the Nature Center, a lively Kids’ Zone, delicious  food, local brews, vendors, and live entertainment, including local favorite band Blue-  bone and the USO Show Troupe from New York City!    Founded in 2015, the mission of the Foundation is to nurture the relationships between  Coast Guard members and their families and the people of Cape May County. We ac-  complish this by developing special programs, supporting the efforts of other organi-  zations, and facilitating active engagement between the Coast Guard and Cape May  County. We are guided by our desire to be accountable and trustworthy as we strive  to deliver excellence because of the value we place on the service of Coast Guard  personnel and their families.    Significantly, Cape May County is designated as a “Coast Guard Community,” one of  a select number of cities and counties in the Nation. The honor is reserved for com-  munities that show special support and consideration for the Coast Guard and was  awarded after approval by the United States Coast Guard and an act of Congress. The  Foundation partners with the County of Cape May, its 16 municipalities, and community  organizations throughout the year to present activities that educate about the deep  connections between the Coast Guard and the region.    Thank you for spending the day with us at the Cape May County Coast Guard  Community Festival and kindly visit our webpage (www.coastguardcommunity.org)  for a schedule of upcoming events.    It is our hope that you will continue to celebrate and honor the men and women of  the United States Coast Guard and their important place here in Cape May County  throughout the year.

A Message from The Captain       South Jersey Community,     Cape May County has been designated     as a proud “Coast Guard Community”     since May of 2015. As we celebrate this     important milestone and look forward to     the renewal of this designation, there is no     better way to highlight Cape May County     and its Coast Guard than with the annual Coast Guard Festival, which has     grown to a week long series of events - a celebration worthy of the spirit     that makes Cape May County the “Hometown of the Coast Guard.”     I am proud to say that through continued cooperation and the hard work     of county Freeholders, city Mayors, the Chamber of Commerce, and the     Coast Guard Community Foundation we will hold the 6th Annual Coast     Guard Community Festival May 2, 2020. The celebration will be centered     on the Training Center in Cape May and our operational units, and will     include events open to the public. We look forward to welcoming you to     the Training Center and offer many thanks to the Coast Guard Community     Foundation and the many volunteers for making this event such a success     for the past five years.     As we look forward to the future, it is important to reflect on the relationship     between the residents and elected officials of the county and the Coast     Guard. Cape May County and the Coast Guard share more than 100 years     of history, having grown together, built on a relationship of trust and sus-     tained by an invaluable sense of community. We are proud to proclaim that     Cape May County is the Coast Guard’s hometown! This could not be said     without the dedication everyone of you has shown to ensuring that men     and women who serve here feel like family. All of you have embraced our     service and supported our members through myriad individual and organi-     zational outreach efforts that offered not only kind words, but kind actions.    4
Whether it is thanking our newest volunteers for their services as you see  them on their first off-base liberty, organizing events to assist our members  in uncertain financial times, or opening your homes during the holidays to  more than 300 recruits, it is no wonder that Cape May County earned its  designation as a Coast Guard Community, nor why those who serve here  feel that we aren’t just the Coast Guard, but your Coast Guard.    With more than 80% of our entire workforce receiving their training here,  Cape May County is significant to our service’s cultural identity. This is  where they take their first steps in uniform and where they learn to live by  our core values of Honor, Respect, and Devotion to Duty. They are reborn  as Coast Guardsmen here and will forever hold Cape May in their minds as  the place where their careers of relevant service began. It is for this reason  that we are forever tied to this community in service and in spirit.    While the designation as a Coast Guard Community is emblematic of our  past relationship, it stems from and is sustained through a pattern of mutual  support and engagement. Every five years, our partnership undergoes  external scrutiny to ensure it is indeed a vibrant relationship worthy of its  moniker. As our community looks at accomplishments already in our wake  and toward the horizon of planned engagement through this process,  I expect we’ll be astounded to see the full depth and breadth of the  impacts we have experienced together.    Thank you for lending your support for celebrating your community’s  achievement in support of our service. This is an opportunity to showcase  to the nation both the pride we have in calling Cape May County home,  and the dedication to our service that only the citizens of South Jersey can  claim.

PO Ruffenach, an instructor at                                                      Training Center Cape May, personally                                                      interacts with every recruit and edu-                                                      cates them about the history and bond                                                      between the City if Cape May and the                                                      Coast Guard dating back to 1948. He                                                      champions the concept of Cape May                                                      being the Coast Guard’s Hometown                                                      by explaining its distinction as well as                                                      support activities available to recruits                                                      during off-base liberty. Additionally,      PO Ruffenach promotes participation and attendance in Training Center      Cape May’s Sunset Parade program which allows community members      to have the unique opportunity to experience honored military traditions.         In 2017, PO Ruffenach decided he wanted to assist fellow military      members and others with securing housing needs. He obtained his New      Jersey Real Estate Salesperson License and devoted his off-base work      to helping family, friends, and co-workers rent, buy, and sell homes.      PO Ruffenach’s combined United States Coast Guard and real estate      involvement in town has helped many military members and their families      become part of the Coast Guard Community.    16
On top of his full time duties, PO Ruffenach makes it a priority to give back  and volunteer his time to local charities including the DeSatnick Founda-  tion Cape to Cape Paddleboard Event and Life Rolls On They Will Surf  Again program.  PO Ruffenach aids in the planning and safety of the Cape to Cape Paddle  alongside the DeSatnick Foundation as well as participates in the event.  His volunteer duties include setting up GPS waypoints for paddlers and  vessels to follow a course and arranging for the United States Coast  Guard/Auxiliary to be a part of the safety fleet, to ensure safe crossing  for all participants. PO Ruffenach is also involved with the Life Rolls On  They Will Surf Again program which pairs volunteers with those individu-  als living with paralysis. He is one of the critical water team leaders, which  is an important position, as those living with paralysis put their trust into  the water leaders. PO Ruffenach has built strong relationships with fellow  volunteers and participants thus making him a highly requested by return-  ing participants.  PO Ruffenach is someone who goes above and beyond for others with  a smile on his face.

HD2 Vazquez demonstrated kind-                                                      ness and unselfish character as she                                                      planned and organized a volunteer                                                      bike building event at Training Center                                                      Cape May which distributed bikes to                                                      foster children of Cape May County.      Displaying a high level of initiative, she personally raised $2,250 in dona-      tions for “Together We Rise”, a non-profit organization which provides      bicycles to children in the foster care system. With this level of contribu-      tion, the organization was able to deliver twenty unassembled bikes.      Leveraging her peer network on base, she put together a team of fifteen      volunteers who unpackaged and assembled the bikes, and ensured that      the donated bikes were delivered to foster children in Cape May County      over the holiday season. HS2 Vazquez’s efforts helped bring a smile and      joy during the holiday season to many foster children in the Cape May      County area. HS2 Vazquez displayed compassion as she set up a bin at      the Health, Safety and Work-Life Service Center Clinic to accept dona-      tions for Cape May County’s Coalition Against Rape and Abuse (CARA).      The donations consisted of shelf-stable food items and toiletries which are    18
needed for CARA shelter residents. The donated supplies were brought to  CARA shelters and greatly assisted in providing residents the resources  needed to recover from traumatic experiences.    Additionally, HS2 Vaz quez is an active member of the TRACEN Cape  May Leadership and Diversity Advisory Committee (LDAC). The group  plans events that celebrate diversity, inclusion, and professional develop-  ment for all members of the Cape May Coast Guard Community. In this  capacity, HS2 Vazquez personally organized a 5k Pride Run in June of  2019 to celebrate LGBT Pride Month. This included setting up the race  route, advertising the event, coordinating security, and running all race-  day logistics. The event was attended by over 100 active duty, family  members, Auxiliarists, civilians, contractors, and recruits. She also helped  plan events celebrating Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage  Month, Black History Month, and Women’s History M onth. In October,  HS2 Vazquez and other LDAC members volunteered with the Nature  Center of Cape May. The group helped paint a mural on one of the  buildings, and they completed various repair and ground maintenance  projects to support the non-profit organization’s mission to educate  residents of Cape May County.    Above all, HS2 Caleigh Vazquez truly inspires everyone she meets  with her positive attitude, tenacious work ethic, and dedication to her  community. She goes above and beyond to make people feel included  and respected. As a Health Service Technician, she shows the utmost  compassion to all patients. This includes the 4,000 annual recruits that  receive their boot camp medical screening at Cape May Clinic.    We are pleased and honored to acknowledge HS2 Caleigh Vazquez  has a 2020 Hometown Hero Award recipient.                                                                                                                                 19
