I nominate POTTAWATOMIE Lighthouse, Rock Island, Door County, Wisconsin

Many WACKOs at the May 15, 2004 dedication ceremony and open house wanted to know where the FRESNEL LENS was!! Well, the Friends of Rock Island want to have a replica 4th Order FRESNEL LENS made and installed in the lantern room by the next Door County Lighthouse Walk in May 2005! The cost for the lens and installation is $26,000. They have a 50/50 grant and need to raise $13,000.

This WACKO badge promotion would help Pottawatomie get a long missing 4th ORDER FRESNEL LENS back in the Lantern Room! Wouldn't this be great?!
