You have to pay to provide a service?

lol yep you sure do: looks like the “keeper” program is still active. I imagine it’s to get only serious applicants and direct the funds towards preservation / maintenance, etc. But it does come off as a bit… odd, seeing as they don’t have to hire labor to do these jobs.

Jeez pretty pricey too! It explained there that the organization maintaining the lighthouse doesn’t receive any gov funding so they rely on these fees but yea it does seem strange to pay that much to work but oh well. I’m sure it is a great experience.
