Re: Brine for Roads

Good reminder for folks! It is important to protect one’s self when applying it. Steve wears tall rubber boots, long sleeves, gloves, hat, etc., only does when there’s no wind and the road is damp or wet. I think I’ll order face masks for him too.

Re: Brine for Roads

Thanks again to Power’s Hardware for ordering calcium chloride for dust control. I just talked to KK and they are ordering 8-10 bags. We are signed up for 4 of those bags. If anyone wants any, please give them a call and let them know how many bags you want. Thanks, also, to the two replies from cit...

Re: Brine for Roads

Thank you, Jeff, for your quick response! You’re a problem solver! We will gladly call and order some. I’m hoping folks can afford to buy what Peaine Township used to provide its residents like St.James Township still does.

Re: Powers Hardware Retirement/Sale

Jeff, you’ve been such a valuable person contributing to this community in so many ways. I especially can’t thank you enough for your veterinarian services. Your kindness, patience and acumen will be sorely missed. Heck, you even drove all the way to the south end to help our ailing dogs. A hour lon...

Re: BIRHC Board Meeting Postponed

I believe this a net gain to Beaver Island as residents donâ??t pay for all the money that comes in to support the school.
