This afternoon, several members of the Skerries Coast Guard team visited the Rosslare Coast Guard station to pass on the 2010 JSAR shield. Also present at the handover were Jim Griffin (Dublin JSAR team captain & OiC of nearby Dunmore East CG) and Niall Ferns (CG Sector Manager).
As you will recall, the Dublin team won the JSAR shield at the competition last May. The Dublin team comprised of volunteers from several different CG stations and the Shield will be held by each of those stations until its return to the JSAR event next year.
