Joseph Hindley had a long career as a lighthouse keeper that spanned from the late 1920s to 1972, when he retired as the last civilian keeper in the New England region. He served at offshore stations early in his career: Whale Rock (RI), Butler Flats (MA), and Sakonnet Point (RI). He and his family spent six years at Gay Head Light Station on Martha's Vineyard, and then 16 years at Nobska Point Light Station on Cape Cod.

  • Light Hearted ep 302 – Manitowoc North Breakwater Light, Wisconsin
    2024/11/17
    Manitowoc North Breakwater Lighthouse, USLHS photo by Tom Tag The city of Manitowoc, Wisconsin, is on the west shore of Lake Michigan, at the mouth of the Manitowoc River. The Manitowoc North Breakwater Lighthouse, built in 1918, is one of the area’s most familiar icons. The lighthouse property was auctioned by the federal government in 2010 under the guidelines of the National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act. The buyer was Philip Carlucci of Melville, New York. Courtesy of the Manitowoc Sunrise Rotary Club Since he’s owned the lighthouse, Phil Carlucci has been responsible for much restoration. He has now partnered with the Manitowoc Sunrise Rotary Club to offer public tours of the lighthouse. Members of the club keep the building clean and offer tours on a regular basis. Interviewed in this podcast episode are three board members of the Manitowoc Sunrise Rotary Club: Paul Roekle, Dennis Huckins, and Mike Woznick.

  • Light Hearted 301 – Cape Canaveral, FL, and the winner of the 2024 Lighthouse Dance Off
    2024/11/03
    Cape Canaveral Lighthouse on Florida’s east coast is owned by the United States Space Force and maintained as an active aid to navigation by the Coast Guard. Visits to the lighthouse are made available by the nonprofit Cape Canaveral Lighthouse Foundation. The Foundation completed the construction of a new replica keeper’s house in 2019. Funding has now been secured for the building of two additional replica keepers’ houses to improve the visitor experience. In this episode, Becky Zingarelli, museum director for the Cape Canaveral Lighthouse, discusses the new project. The winner of our recent 2024 Lighthouse Dance Off, as selected by the audience who attended our recent 40th anniversary virtual telethon, was the Encore Dance Academy, and their winning video was shot at the Cape Canaveral Lighthouse. Kristy Hefner, owner and artistic director of Encore Dance Academy, discusses the production of the winning entry. Also taking part in the discussion are John Winkopp and Mike Piana, who shot and edited the dance video.
