Anne met with John and Peg Nourie at their home at the end of October. Both of the Nourie's were extremely helpful and informative, as well as generous with their time.
They advised that the Coast Guard considers the Coast Guard Auxiliary as part of their own organization. So while the presence of two auxiliary organizations in the area will be good back up for the request, it cannot be thought of as being part of the city's efforts to support the Coast Guard. It will be; however, a good indication of the support that citizens provide due to their volunteer efforts.
John and Peg advised that the support of the community for the International Search and Rescue Competitions between the US and Canada which took place in the area twice in the last ten years would be very helpful to use in indicating support of the CG by the Portsmouth Community.
