Re: Viruses
VIruses are extremely difficult things to contain and stop. This virus has developed from a small area of China four months ago to circling the globe. I think back to 4-5 years ago when we had an outbreak of Canine Distemper in Wildlife in Northern Michigan. Cases appeared in coyotes and raccoons an...

Re: Just A Thought
Are you also going to restrict people leaving the island? Doctors in Northern Michigan made the following statement in a recent broadcast, " When you go into a grocery store of any size right now the virus is in the store, and you must take precautions with anything that you touch to prevent yo...

Re: PUBLIC STATEMENT COVID-19 MARCH 25
If you do not restrict travel off the island this policy is superfluous. The amount of COVID-19 is vastly underreported in Northern Michigan and if you do not restrict travel by islanders of leaving the island you will not significantly impact the presence of COVID19 on the island. Most transmission...

Maybe we should tell the Bishop ..
It is easier to keep people apart in church than it is to keep them apart at the bars on Beaver Island!

Re: WTH
Too slow and too long of a trip during peak seasons when it matters the most, especially considering the 1.5 hour pre boarding requirement in Charlevoix. I was told "we had a faster boat before it didn't work".... I asked when, and they said in the 70's, different times.... Not pet friendl...

Re: BIRHC meeting rescheduled 10-1-2019 5 PM

When the board and staff is composed of relatives, friends and spouses and they make it clear that any current board members who attempt to serve in an honest and open manner and ask meaningful questions are left out of the main decision making...

Re: BIRHC meeting rescheduled 10-1-2019 5 PM
And how was the new director chosen? Another backroom deal by a few people on the board? What a sham, those that are so worried about corruption and closed door deals dont need to worry about looking to Washington DC. The corrupt operations of the BIRHC is right under your nose. It is time that thos...
