July 22, 2006 Workday at Fort Washington

Chapter volunteers returned to Ft Washington Lighthouse to continue their maintenance and preservation efforts. The workday was shortened due to afternoon thunderstorms.

Sound like fun? The Chapter's next workday at Ft Washington is scheduled for August 19, 2006. To learn more about the Chapter's Volunteer Program, visit the Volunteer page on this site.

If you are ever in doubt about a date for a Chapter event, check out the calendar on the web site.
