Light Hearted
Light Hearted 301 – Cape Canaveral, FL, and the winner of the 2024 Lighthouse Dance Off
Cape Canaveral Lighthouse on Florida’s east coast is owned by the United States Space Force and maintained as an active aid to navigation by the Coast Guard. Visits to the lighthouse are made available by the nonprofit Cape Canaveral Lighthouse Foundation. The Foundation completed the construction of a new replica keeper’s house in 2019. Funding has now been secured for the building of two additional replica keepers’ houses to improve the visitor experience. In this episode, Becky Zingarelli, museum director for the Cape Canaveral Lighthouse, discusses the new project.
The winner of our recent 2024 Lighthouse Dance Off, as selected by the audience who attended our recent 40th anniversary virtual telethon, was the Encore Dance Academy, and their winning video was shot at the Cape Canaveral Lighthouse. Kristy Hefner, owner and artistic director of Encore Dance Academy, discusses the production of the winning entry. Also taking part in the discussion are John Winkopp and Mike Piana, who shot and edited the dance video.
