Summary

The Beaver Island Chamber of Commerce invited nominations for its 2010 Citizen of the Year award, accepting them through April 8 ahead of an April 30 banquet. The May issue reports the banquet outcome: Pete LoDico was selected after the nominees’ community work was presented, including the Yellow Ribbon Campaign ladies, Donna Stambaugh, Ed Wojan, Pete LoDico, BICDC, Gail Weede, Bill McDonough, and Judy Boyle.

Evidence limits

The May account is a newspaper report of the result, and the June item is the recipient’s thank-you letter; neither is the nomination file or an official award ledger.
