Beaver Beacon

I am going to be putting out the Beacon for a while.
As for Jeff Cashman and his reasons for this, he will explain in his own words and in his own time.
As for me, this is a very scary undertaking: there is a lot to learn and much to do. It's intimidating: Jeff and Bill Cashman set the bar very high. I've had to come to grips with the idea that I could disappoint huge numbers of regular readers, and fall flat on my face in a very public way. Still, it is an opportunity I could not refuse.
Jeff has been a tremendous help, and will be assisting me with the next issue while I struggle to learn new software and processes. I've been writing in early mornings and late nights around my other jobs.
I need your help! While engaged in other activities, I did not cover several events that should be covered in the Beacon. My list looks like this:
The Christmas Cantata
Irish Christmas in America
Live Radio Show of It's a Wonderful Life
Last boat of the season
Coast Guard cutter picking up the Buoys
Russian language classes/ craft evenings at the library
Children's Christmas program (this one, I think I have covered)
The Christmas shopping event last Sunday
Santa and Mrs. Claus visiting the island
There may be other important things I've missed, that I don't even know about!
If anyone can give me the "rundown" on any of these events, so that I can do a write-up, I would certainly appreciate it. Photos would be an added bonus!
My Email is cindyr49782@yahoo.com - or you can always catch up with me at the hardware store.
Thank you!

Cindy, Sail close to the wind, eye on the mark, trust your compass and with your bounty of talents all will be fine.

I never thought I would agree with the Pirate. It must be a Christmas miracle! You can do this Cindy!
