The Friends of the Wind Point Lighthouse, a 501c3 non-profit organization, was founded
to educate the public about the history of the Wind Point Lighthouse.

We use a variety of methods to teach about the Lighthouse:

• Tower Climbs provide visitors with the opportunity to climb the 11 stories to the top of the Wind Point Lighthouse
• The restored Fog Horn Building where a Museum is maintained that tells stories of Racine and Great Lakes maritime history plus a gift shop
• The restored Fuel House which tells the story of the historic role it played in supporting the Lighthouse
• A Memorial Brick Garden on the Lighthouse Grounds along the shore of Lake Michigan that supports our educational efforts
• Educational programs with local schools, tour groups, Scouts and other groups

We encourage you to learn more about becoming a member of the Friends of the Wind Point Lighthouse.
