OUR TEAM
Our Innkeepers
Our innkeepers live on the island and are responsible for providing exceptional customer service and the upkeep to our facilities.
They are certified by the U.S. Coast Guard and are also skilled craftsmen, wine connoisseurs, and gourmet chefs.
Our Volunteer “Wickies”
The proceeds from the operation of the Inn are not enough to do the whole job of preservation and restoration. As much of the maintenance of the facilities as possible is done by the volunteer group, the “Wickies.” We need all kinds of volunteers at East Brother Light Station!
Learn more about Volunteering. Whatever your skills or energy level, there’s a place for you. For more information, email us at volunteer@ebls.org.

Saving East Brother Light Station and making it accessible to the public to enjoy has been a labor of love.
We raise money to preserve, maintain, and keep our inn running.
Did you know…
The keepers of old were nicknamed “Wickies” because of all of the time they spent trimming the wicks of the oil lamp so to keep the light burning strong and bright. While the old oil lamps are now history, the work of the lighthouse remains constant.
Our volunteers are now our most important “Wickies,” and we rely on them to keep our Inn accessible.
