The grounds and boathouse will be open to the public from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm on Sunday, August 7th. Because of serious health and safety concerns the lighthouse interior will not be open. Visitors may view exhibits in the recently renovated historic life-saving station boathouse and pick up a free commemorative poster, limited supplies. Displays on water safety and activities for children are planned in conjunction with the US Coast Guard Auxiliary and Sullivan's Island Fire & Rescue. Representatives from the non-profit Save the Light organization will report on efforts to preserve the Morris Island Lighthouse.
