Summary

The Beaver Island Association of Commerce is named in an October 1950 report about fishing, hunting, transportation, and accommodation. The article identifies Archie Lafreniere as its secretary and says island lodging reservations could be made through the association.[^game1950]

Evidence and limits

This is a source-bounded organization record. The held issue does not provide incorporation documents, officers beyond Lafreniere, membership, address, formation date, or a complete history. The association is not assumed to be a predecessor or successor of another island civic or tourism body.

Open questions

  • When was the association formed, and what were its legal name and membership?
  • Can local directories, minutes, or later newspapers trace its activities and successors?
