Swim for Alligator Lighthouse

Donation Goal: $5,000

Swimmers, we need you! 

 

First lit in 1873, Alligator Reef Light Station (Alligator Light) stands guard in honor of Islamorada’s past, present, and future. She represents shipwrecks, pirates, pirate-hunters, a coral reef teeming with fish, Islamorada’s earliest stories of lightkeepers, divers, anglers, and curiosity. She’s witnessed the art of the tale, the greatest storms, the sweetest love, and the toughest challenges. She’s a keeper. 

In addition to the 150+ years she has protected Alligator Reef, for more than a decade, she has given swimmers the adventure of a lifetime. Help us ensure that Alligator Reef Lighthouse and the Swim for Alligator Lighthouse are part of the Florida landscape for years to come. 

Your donation will support efforts to restore the Lighthouse and scholarships for local high school swimmers, awarded upon graduation. Two causes we can all stand behind.
