Interested in Becoming a Crisp Point Keeper in 2027?

We're excited to announce that the 2027 Keeper sign-up process has been updated! Please take a few minutes to review the new procedure before applications open:
Sign-Up Procedure:https://crisppointlighthouse.org/signupprocedure07-28-26.pdf

What's New for 2027?
This year, we're replacing the email sign-up process with an electronic application form. The new form is designed to collect all of the information the Keeper Coordinator needs to assign reservations, making the process more efficient and helping save time for everyone involved.
Because of this transition, keeper applications will open on November 1 at 8:00 a.m. Applications submitted before that time will not be accepted.

Membership Reminder
As always, everyone applying to be a keeper must have a current CPLHS membership on file. In addition, every member of your keeper group must also have a membership on file before your application can be considered.

Join Our Live Zoom Q&A
We know these are significant changes, and we want everyone to feel comfortable with the new process before applications open.
Please join us for a live Zoom Q&A on Sunday, October 4, at 6:00 p.m. During the session, we'll walk through the updated sign-up procedure, demonstrate the new application form, and answer your questions. The meeting will be recorded for those who can't attend. The meeting will be recorded for those who cannot attend.
Join Zoom Meeting: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/83130410000.... Meeting ID: 831 3041 0000, Passcode: 953379.

We look forward to another great keeper season and appreciate your support as we make this process even better!
