Let's Do It! Let's Wash the Lighthouse!!!

In 2014, local lighthouse lovers came together to restore & repaint New London Harbor Light. Eight years on, the white paint is looking a little green! Please help us in getting this local landmark -- the oldest and tallest lighthouse on Long Island Sound -- clean and bright.

 

This spring, we're landscaping the lighthouse grounds, thanks to a 'Good to Great' state of Connecticut grant. By summer, the site will be transformed. We don't want to leave the lighthouse itself behind!

We are investigating the safest and best cleaning methods and believe cleaning costs will be $4,500. We would like to have the cleaning done in May.

 

Please help, please contribute!
Let's do it!
