Summary

The Beaver Island Archipelago Trails Association scheduled a public July 24 meeting on long-range trail maintenance, improvements, and possible DNR ORV trail changes. It also scheduled a July 28 volunteer workday to install signs for the new Water Trail at designated access sites.

Evidence limits

The forum preserves the organization’s notice and its reference to earlier campground work. It does not preserve formal minutes, an adopted plan, or a complete installation report.

Open questions

  • Were all planned Water Trail sign sites completed on July 28, 2018, or only some of them? No installation report is in the archive.
  • What became of the DNR ORV-trail changes discussed at the July 24 meeting?

If you can answer any of these, or correct anything above, the archive wants to hear it — see Corrections.
