NRETC develops Beaver Island hiking and driving guides, 2010

1. Jon Livingston, Jared Pike, and participants, "Self guided driving tour," Beaver Island Forum, August 1–9, 2010.
   A visitor praised a self-guided island tour booklet and initially attributed it to the Conservation Club; Jared Pike corrected the attribution, saying the Natural Resources and Eco-Tourism Commission was responsible. Participants said copies were available at businesses, the Community Center, museums, the airlines, and the Boat Company. This documents community distribution and a source-attribution correction, not a preserved booklet or independently verified circulation count.

   A steering-committee organizer announced that both townships had requested a reprint, priced copies at $1, and listed public distribution points. The notice documents the 2011 publication and distribution milestone, not a complete inventory or independent sales count.

   A visitor questioned the Chamber's distribution of the reprinted guide; replies identified the Community and Visitor Information Center and Print Shop Museum as pickup points. A township distribution update said more than 400 copies had gone out in the prior month and offered mail orders at $1 per copy plus postage. The thread records access friction and first-party distribution claims, not an audited circulation count or a complete account of the Chamber's response.
