Workday: Hooper Island April 27, 2013

Two volunteers spent a beautiful spring Saturday on the Hooper Island Lighthouse. They replaced three of the old windows that had rotted with brand new ones. The new windows provide a nice clear view of the Chesapeake and – they don’t leak. After installing the windows they spent what little time was left cleaning up the area.

On May 25th there will be a volunteer pick up at the Calvert Marine Museum for work on Hooper Island Lighthouse. If you’d like to have a unique experience, consider volunteering for work on this light. We can use the volunteer help, and you can climb aboard an active caisson lighthouse in the Chesapeake Bay. Is there a better way to spend a weekend?

Volunteers:
