Make National Lighthouse Day a Reality
August 7, 1989 was a big day for lighthouses. It was the 200th anniversary of the federalization of America’s lighthouses. Celebrations were held at lighthouses all across the nation, with one of the largest celebrations being held at Maine’s Portland Head Lighthouse.
In anticipation of honoring the First Public Works Act of the First Congress of the United States, which on August 7, 1789 put all lighthouses under federal control, the 100th Congress of the United States passed Public Law 100-622 which declared that National Lighthouse Day be held and honored on August 7, 1989.
