Have you ever wanted your name or the name of someone you wish to commemorate etched in stone? The Seaport Association's
Legacy Brick program offers the public the rare opportunity to secure a place in Connecticut's maritime history through the purchase of a personalized brick that will be placed in front of the Lighthouse on Sheffield Island.
"Since 1978 the Seaport Association has maintained Sheffield Island and it's 152 year-old-lighthouse. We created this program as a chance for all lovers of Long Island Sound and Sheffield Island's Lighthouse and Lightkeepers cottage to commemorate their support for the mission of the Seaport Association. Everyone has been very supportive of this program because they are proud to be a part of our maritime heritage and our mission of preservation and education," said Mike Reilly, President of the Seaport Association.
Proceeds from the Legacy Brick program will be used to defray the cost of maintaining the island and lighthouse.
