Charleston Light Ownership Transfer

The ceremony is today, Nov. 9.

That would be a moving ceremony to attend. I was able to be at the ceremony at Bodie Island when the Coast Guard turned over the light to the NPS. It was a really nice ceremony with good speeches from both the Park Service & the CG. I will admit it made me teary.

At Bodie, even though the NPS now owns the light, the Coast Guard still gives guidance and makes sure the light is set correctly since it is still an active light.
