Spring Clean-up is a time to bring people together to prepare Porphyry and Trowbridge Island Lightstations for the season. Its lots of fun and includes a BBQ at the end for the Porphyry experience.
The clean up brings together friends, family, hikers & boaters for a day of preserving and protecting lighthouse history.
Departing from Silver Islet, volunteers travel in the morning aboard Archie’s Charters. Volunteers will be presented with some tasks to complete after a safety orientation. Work can include clearing brush, stacking firewood, cleaning buildings or painting. There’s some time of your own to explore the island followed by some refreshments.
