Summary
In September 2018, organizers announced that the Beaver Island Boodle would not be held that year. The notice cited communication about the cancellation and credited the event’s supporters with helping fund the school Sports Boosters over the prior 15 years. A later Booster Club statement attributed the pause to dwindling participation and lack of an organizer, while leaving open a possible spring return.
Evidence limits
The forum establishes the 2018 cancellation and the reasons attributed by the organizers. It does not establish exact historical fundraising totals or a subsequent revival.
