Summary

The February 1962 Beaver Beacon reports Civic Association committee work for activities, commerce, the Game Club, and the Beacon. Dick LaFreniere and Lillian Gallagher are named as Activities co-chairs; Burdene Stromberg chaired Commerce; Rogers Carlisle chaired the Game Club; and Loretta Malloy chaired the Beacon committee.

The article says the association’s February 1 regular meeting voted to continue weekly inquiry lists for members who owned tourist rental facilities. The lists were sent to owners for personal replies.
