Summary

Organizers planned a children’s carnival immediately after the Beaver Island Fourth of July parade in 2009, with roughly ten activities and a call for volunteers.

Evidence limits

The forum preserves the plan and volunteer appeal, not the location, attendance, or final activity list.

Sources

  1. The announcement described a post-parade carnival with about ten activities, including a dunk tank, bounce house, and face painting, and requested setup, game, and cleanup volunteers. The Chamber offered a donation. It is an advance program notice, not an attendance or completion report.

  2. The Chamber requested tables for the planned carnival. This corroborates the logistical preparation, not final attendance or completion.

  3. Diane McDonough, Chamber of Commerce, and Youth Consortium, "4th of July Carnival- Needs Workers," "Dunk Tank - CELEBRITIES at the 4th of July Carnival," and "July 4 Events," Beaver Island Forum, July 1, 2009.
    The July notices t001752, t001753, and t001754 requested volunteers, listed approximate dunk-tank shifts, and supplied the broader July 4 schedule. They strengthen the planned program but do not establish attendance or completion. No public copy of this file is known; the archive holds one and can provide it on request.
