The Second Life Coast Guard Museum Opening Ceremony

The Second Life Coast Guard is noted for two things, cleaning up Second Life's waters of "prim litter," and reminding the public of boating safety. Last Saturday February 4, a museum was open to tell a little about the organization's history. But before the official opening, there was a ceremony with several speakers, and a few people given honors. The Second Life Newser was there, and wrote a few details.

A Glance at the Second Life Coast Guard

Keeping the waterways of Second Life trouble-free may seem like a dull and thankless job, but there are some here willing to do it. The Second Life Coast Guard, which made an appearance in the SL7B, has taken on the mission of patrolling SL waters, keeping an eye out for problems at boating events, and emphasizing boating safety. Second Life Newser encountered one of the sailors, and asked a few questions.
