Sources
- Reports that about 30 young people and supervisors spent much of the summer restoring the South Head Lighthouse and grounds under a state grant, with a longer-term plan for an environmental-study and field-biology camp available to schools for a fee. It is a newspaper progress report, not a grant file, construction log, ownership record, or completed-program evaluation.
