The next general membership meeting will be announced soon.
The Madisonville Lighthouse, which stands at the mouth of the Tchefuncte River, has guided sailors on Lake Pontchartrain since it was built in 1835.
Now, a committee is raising money to restore the 169-year-old structure, which also includes plans to return the lightkeeper’s house to its’ original site next to the light.
The restoration committee members are always in search of old photos and documents. Anyone wishing to donate or get more information can call 845-9200.
