Sitting atop a jagged pile of rocks off the coast of Harpswell is the Halfway Rock Light Station, neglected and battered by Mother Nature for over 40 years. Starting in 2016, Ford Reiche worked to revitalize the historic structure. After receiving multiple accolades, including the American Lighthouse Foundation’s 2017 Keeper of Light Award, Reiche was selected for this year’s National Maritime Historical Society Distinguished Service Award.
