WHAT IS THE SEASHORE DEFENSE FUND ?

The Seashore Defense Fund is an emergency funding mechanism of FIPPOA that allows for immediate action when catastrophe faces Fire Island Pines’ most valuable asset—its incomparable beaches.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT ?

Without the Seashore Defense Fund available, it would have been impossible to immediately launch the beach recovery efforts and take the short-term emergency actions to protect the Pines in the event of damage from an extreme storm event.

PREPARE

The best way to recover from erosion or damage is to prepage for it ahead of time. Building up the dunes and maintaining a healthy beach is essential.

PRESERVE

A healthy robust dune takes care and attention.

A beautiful and strong beach needs everyone's support
