Abstract:

Chicamacomico Coast Guard Station in Dare County was open for seventy years and closed in 1954. Throughout its time in operation, it rescued sailors from several ships caught in storms. Recently, the Chicamacomico Historical Association began raising funds to begin restoration on the station and convert it into a museum.
