In line with the auxiliary’s expanding presence, DAD Salvosa also formally requested the provision of an office space for the 902nd CGAS within Naga City to support operational efficiency and improve coordination of community-based programs.

The group likewise expressed their intent for the Coast Guard Auxiliary Bicol to again actively participate in the upcoming Peñafrancia Fluvial Procession this September. Their involvement is expected to reinforce safety and security measures during the grand religious event.
