Beaver Island Michigan

Dear Friends of the Beaver Island Community Center:

With mixed emotions, we write to let you know that we will soon be losing our long-standing Events Director at the Community Center. Earlier today, we learned that Ann Partridge accepted an offer from the BIRHC to become the new Medical Reception/Service Coordinatorâ??the position formerly held by Betty Hudgins.

The PABI Board of Directors and the many people Ann served so ably over her nine years at the Community Center will sorely miss her. Ann began working for PABI in the spring of 2008, when she was hired half time to assume responsibility for the Community Centerâ??s events. She worked for the Commission-On-Aging for her other half time over that same period.

The PABI Board congratulates Ann on her career advance, but remains saddened for the Centerâ??s loss. The Bite-of-Beaver will be her final event at the Center and the Board will host a â??good-by and good-luckâ?￾ event for all who come to wish her well and let her know how much she will be missed. Cake and coffee will be served between 2:00 and 4:00 p.m. as we send Ann off to her new but continued work for the people of Beaver Island.
