Volunteer

The work of maintaining the Lighthouse continues with the help of volunteers and active members.

There are many ways you can lend your time to help. You might even have specialized skills that you feel could benefit the Lighthouse. Please let us know!

On weekends during the summer, the Conservancy relies on volunteer docents (tour guides) to offer public tours of the lighthouse. There are also opportunities to get involved with trail maintenance projects. If you are interested in volunteering, please complete the Volunteer Form and mail it to the Lighthouse.
