Summary

During fall 2021, the Beaver Island Commission on Aging continued remote and appointment-based services: school lunches were ordered for takeout, meal vouchers were handled by appointment, and a month-long Bingo program served registered residents age 60 and older. A later notice reported individual prize winners and announced October meals and programming.

Evidence limits

These direct COA notices document program rules, announcements, and a limited winner report. They do not establish participation totals, meal volume, or the date when in-person activities resumed.
