Summary

The June 1996 Beaver Beacon presented Beverly Russell, Yvonne Crandall, and Judy Lanier as candidates for two Beaver Island Community School Board positions. The profiles described their island ties, professional or volunteer experience, and reasons for seeking office; Lanier also announced a June 3 discussion of her educational views at the District Library. The July Beacon reported that Lanier and Beverly Russell won the two seats.

Evidence limits

The June profiles and July result are newspaper reports, not a complete election canvass, official minutes, or candidate file.
