Re: more police?

It struck me as strange to call in more police from the mainland for the 4th parade and festivities. Why send the impression that additional backup is needed from unknown law inforcememnt - instead of working within the community to find a solution to the problem. ??? .

Just a note of appreciation to the Powers family for the webcam. I can't express how much the webcam at the hardware store means to us.

Camping on Garden Island

Can you overnite camp on Garden Island? Do you need a permit? Are campfires permitted for cooking and roasting marshmellows under the stars?

After arriving on Beaver Island, what are our options to get to Garden Island? Have I missed anything?

Thanks a bunch!!!

Freight Options

Besides the Beaver Island Ferry and Island Airways, are there other options to get bulk items on the island?

I don't have anything in mind just curious about the island way of life.
