- What’s going on at the Lighthouse now: The Lighthouse has received a new coat of paint on the exterior; paved pathways connecting the Lighthouse, Boathouse, and main parking areas are constructed; and other landscaping features at the north end of the area are completed. The wetland abatement/improvement project needs some clean-up but essentially is complete in the Lighthouse area. The stones from the temporary road have been repurposed to shore up the southern bank of Derby Pond, thanks to the City of Port Clinton. In the spring, look for is working to deal with the flooding in the area and preparation for the paved walkways around Derby Pond.
