First Fridays in Downtown Tarpon Springs

We set up a table and tent with memorabilia for sale, membership and volunteer information,  Memorial Brick order forms, and our signature lighthouse model. Sometimes we even set up the bean bag toss game!  We always could use extra help from outgoing folks who like to meet people and talk about Anclote Key and the lighthouse.  Please stop by and see us...or volunteer with us!
