The Traverse City Record-Eagle reports that the Grand Traverse Lighthouse will receive $40,000 from the Michigan Lighthouse Assistance Program. The money is part of the over $200,000 raised by the sale of Michigan "Save our Lights" plates and will be used to repair water damage from a leaking foundation.
