Re: Powers Hardware Retirement/Sale

Thanks Scott. If the hardware business changes hands I still hope to provide veterinary services until a more viable option for the Beaver Island Community emerges. This year marks the 31st year of providing veterinary service to the island, thanks for all of those experiences as well.

Powers Hardware Retirement/Sale

Just a note to thank the island for over twenty years of business in the hardware. I am hoping in the near future to retire from the hardware business and am open to all of those who may be interested in taking over the business.

Re: BIBCO moving

Good that the dock will be more accessible and easier to access.

Bad that the trips will be 10-15 minutes longer and the issue of ice up can shorten the season.

Re: Beaver Island Boodle Canceled

I had guests coming for the boodle, they decided to come anyway but this underscores a real problem in promoting fall tourism. At one point we had a Celtic Festival and now the Boodle which may be going away in the fall. Hopefully this will fall on the agenda of the new chamber director

Re: NEWS ..... The Rest Of The Season & More

Re: We ALL NEED DENTAL service

Interesting discussion I can tell you from helping Dr White fill out the yearly encounter report that the BIRHC required of her that she saw approximately 400 patients per year.

Re: Tell Me It Isn't So?

I own the property adjacent to the launch, actually the township has an easement for egress and ingress to the launch area. I am open to negotiation or the selling of an additional portion of the property or in fact the whole lot. It is a beautiful peace of property and it has never been used accord...
