As I recall, last year we didn't have to pay an entrance fee at Point Lookout Park. Hooper did have a reduced fee as long as you didn't start there. The ones you could understand a fee for were Cove Point, where they had to rent buses, and Turkey Point where they also had to rent buses (but I think they used a donation jar).

Some of the lights do need to get on board with the concept of the weekend - let's get people interested in lighthouses. Reducing or waiving admission fees will help this along.

Thanks for taking us along on your adventure, Dennis. Brings back memories of a fun challenge last year.
