<div>September 22, 2025: Yes, yes, yes! -- today is the day we reached -- no surpassed -- our goal! Thank you all so very much for your generosity. Replacing the railing at Race Rock Light is the single most-important things we could do to increase safety at the lighthouse. And now it's done! And, guess what? We no sooner fixed the railing than it was site of a photo shoot, for an upcoming exhibition of Fishers Island images by Adrian Bloom. We're planning now for the next improvements at RR. Thank you. We'll keep you posted! NLMS &amp; Susan                                   Thanks to Andy Champagne for the terrific video!

<div>August 11, 2025: Last week Stonington Steel began fabricating the new railing for Race Rock Lighthouse.
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/90413917_1750016710683396_r.jpeg" width="100%" />
<div>We need to raise <strong>$25,000 to install a new railing at Race Rock.</strong> We asked the US Coast Guard what they most needed repaired at the lighthouse. They said: <strong>the railing. </strong><em>Rusted and broken, the iron railing at the lighthouse is unsafe.</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Stonington Steel is remaking the original design of the railing.<em> In fact, it's being built onshore right now. </em>A grant covers the design work and construction of the railing. It will be installed at Race Rock in August. Like the USCG, safety is our #1 concern.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Before that, we must raise an additional $25,000 to cover installation expenses out at the lighthouse. </em>Please donate. <strong><em>Please help us Replace the Railing at Race Rock Light.</em></strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As a 501(c)(3) public charity, NLMS can accept fully tax-deductible contributions of cash or securities to support this effort. NLMS preserves four historic maritime landmarks: New London Harbor Light (est. 1761, current tower 1801), the NL Custom House (1833), Race Rock Lighthouse (1878), and NL Ledge Light (1909). We run the Custom House Maritime Museum -- telling the stories of the local waterfront. Local, friendly, authentic, we promote, interpret, and celebrate the rich maritime life &amp; history of the port of New London and the surrounding region through museum exhibitions, educational programs, and preservation initiatives. <a href="https://nlmaritimesociety.org" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Learn more about us</a>.
