n two weeks, the rumble of Ford

The annual event features the 1966-

repair project extends lighthouse closure
The temporary closure of visitor
access to the interior of Heceta Head
Lighthouse has been extended to Sept.
30. Several unexpected issues have hin-
dered the repair work, pushing the clo-
sure beyond its original July 31 end
date.
Crews will continue to repair several
cracked interior metal columns on the
upper floor of the lighthouse. The light-
house lens will be covered and out of
service during the repair work.
The grounds surrounding the light-
house will remain open to visitors.
Interpretive programs will continue as
regularly scheduled, but no visitors will
be allowed to enter the lighthouse.
The historic assistant lighthouse
keeper’s house, which the U.S. Forest
Service operates through a concession-
aire as a bed-and-breakfast, will remain
open.
More inforamtion about the light-
house is on oregonstateparks.org.
