Coastguard Display at Lehanmore

Sunday 10/08/2014 Richie

Coastguard Display at Lehanmore, the Castletownbere team displaying the procedure of lifting a casualty in a stretcher up a cliff. These shots show what happens at the top of the cliff and not the actual climbers and stretcher. The work at the top of the cliff involves a number of team members. When the hauling begins it takes a number of pullers, the amount depending on the ratio of the pulley system. In these pictures the ratio is 5:1

What a fantastic experience to share with my fellow actors. Some scenes from the panto at Lehanmore. The first of many more to come over the following years. The community enjoyed the laughs that were had.

It’s all over now, I think there is a good chance that something else will happen for the next Panto season 2014…

Lehanmore is out there on the edge of the world, the furthest you can get from Dublin and still be on the mainland.
