Groton Long Point

Groton Long Point (GLP) is a political subdivision of the town of Groton, on Long Island Sound in New London County, Connecticut, United States. The population was 667 at the 2000 census. Used mostly by families as a summer resort, life in Groton Long Point is very different depending on the season.
The area is administered by the Groton Long Point Association (GLPA), which was established by an act of the Connecticut Legislature in 1921.〔Rappa, John. (Groton Long Point Association ) Office of Legislative Research, Connecticut General Assembly. December 15, 2006. Retrieved February 18, 2007.〕 The act enabled seasonal residents to tax and issue bonds to provide services independent of the town of Groton; typically such municipal corporations provided services that the larger township could not or would not provide.〔 The corporation was not described as borough in the law forming it, but it has the same governmental powers as a borough.〔 Today such a special taxing district can be formed by Connecticut residents on their own without special acts of the Legislature. 〔 The area is treated by the U.S. Census Bureau as a borough although it is not formally incorporated as such.
==Summer life==
Summer in Groton Long Point runs roughly from mid-June to early September. The actual living population of the town is dramatically larger during the summer months as nearly every property is either occupied by its owners or rented to summer tenants. The Groton Long Point Yacht Club, a cross between a traditional yacht club and a summer camp, runs many classes for children. These include swimming, sailing, sports, and tennis lessons. The Yacht Club also organizes evening events such as dances, movies and scavenger hunts for children; events are also organized for adults and families, including concerts (at nearby Esker Point), dances, and fireworks.
Just as the number of people in GLP increases dramatically during the summer months compared to the winter months, the number of people around during summer weekends increases dramatically compared to summer weekdays.
