Summary

The Beaver Island Game Club reviewed its wildlife programs in a meeting during the October–November 1972 reporting period. The report says volunteers had cleared timber behind Doty’s Camp, placed mineral blocks, pruned apple trees, and sowed clover and rye across the island, with continuation and expansion proposed for the coming year. It also identifies Sheldon Parker as the new president after Alvin LaFreniere moved to Chicago.
