Summary

The January 2014 Beaver Beacon reports Beaver Island’s community Christmas cantata, an 11-section presentation of readings and songs by performers of all ages. The article credits Kathy Speck as director.

Evidence limits

The retrospective report documents the cantata and its structure, but does not give a complete participant list, date, or attendance total.

  5. The announcement sought children age five and older for a choir in the December 7–8 Christmas program and scheduled the first rehearsal at the Christian Church. It enriches the planned participant/program context but does not establish the final choir or performance.
