Outer Banks Lighthouse Misses Out on Restoration Contest

Bodie Island Lighthouse was one of three finalists in a national lighthouse restoration contest that ended September 7. Jeld-Wen Windows & Doors held the contest to determine which lighthouse was most deserving of new windows and doors.

The New Canal Lighthouse in New Orleans was announced as the winner this week.

Bodie Island Lighthouse is in dire need of restoration, and these new windows and doors would have been a welcomed improvement, but unfortunately it will have to wait for next year’s contest. In the meantime, restoration is under progress, but funds are very limited.
