US LIGHTHOUSE SOCIETY GROUP VISITS TINICUM
TUESDAY, MAY 13, 2008

The US Lighthouse Society began their week long tour of New Jersey, Delaware Bay, and New York Harbor lighthouses with Tinicum being their first stop.  The group of about 40 from all over the country arrived at Tinicum Rear Range Lighthouse early Tuesday morning, May 13, 2008.  The group was met by members of the Tinicum Rear Range Lighthouse Society who provided refreshments and conducted tours of the historic lighthouse.  Most members of the group made the climb to the top of the lighthouse and enjoyed the spectacular view of the Philadelphia skyline and Delaware River.  Many on the tour remarked how surprised they were at the view and were very glad that Tinicum was one of the lighthouses on the tour.  TRRLHS President Marc Kamp and other board members took the opportunity to greet the tour group at their arrival dinner Monday evening in Philadelphia.
