Summary

On March 20, 2007, Fireman’s Fund Insurance presented the Beaver Island Fire Department with a $125,000 grant toward a new 3,000-gallon tender costing $175,000. The tender replaced an older tanker that had developed many leaks; the Beacon reported that the remaining cost was largely covered by a private donation.
