The U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Rush pulled into Apia Harbor yesterday. The vessel is in the region for fisheries surveillance and enforcement.
Yesterday evening at the new beach on the Apia waterfront, the Coast Guard engaged in friendly races with local Samoa Outrigger Canoe Association (SOCA) clubs.
Today, the crewmembers will visit the Samoa Victim Support Group’s House of Hope to work on their garden.
Later this evening, the American Embassy in Apia will host the U.S. Independence Day celebration on board CGC Rush, which will be docked pier side at Matautu Wharf. Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sa’ilele Malielegaoi is scheduled to speak at the event.
