Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A vertically oriented promotional flyer has a banner photograph of four adults rowing a narrow boat on calm water, with a circular rowing-club logo at upper right. Large lettering announces a three-day currach rowing workshop, followed by registration information and three schedule panels covering introductions, skills and endurance, and a mini-regatta and celebration. The lower portion includes additional registration and captain-training information.

A model wrote this. It was shown the image and the catalogue record together, and asked to keep them apart — what it saw is here, what the record told it is under "taken from the record" below. It is still wrong often enough to matter, about who is pictured, where, when, and what is happening. Read it as a way to find the image, never as evidence about it. If you can correct it, please do: write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com, or see how corrections work. Someone who recognises a face or a shoreline knows more than the model did.

Taken from the record

Not observed in the image — supplied by the archive's own catalogue, and repeated here so the two stay distinguishable.

The image was posted to the Friends of Beaver Island Facebook page by Friends of Beaver Island on 2026-06-03 at 22:49:21. The archive records it as a community photograph from a public Facebook page, credited to individual posters per image.

Could not make out

Stated rather than guessed at.

Small lettering on the boat in the banner photograph is not legible.

Why this archive publishes it. Public Facebook groups and pages run by island organisations and residents. Each item credits the poster by name and links to the original post. Removal on request.

Material goes off the web without anyone deciding that it should: a host lapses, a gallery is retired, a link stops resolving. Holding a copy — with its provenance, its checksum and its holder's terms recorded beside it — is much of why this archive exists. If you are looking for something whose original has since gone, write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com and a full-size copy of what is held here will be sent to you.

Recorded verbatim from the provenance sidecar taken at retrieval — this archive does not restate a holder's terms in its own words, does not add a restriction the holder did not state, and does not abridge one.

The archive holds its own copy of that file and will supply it on request; it is not re-served here, because the holder serves it better and a second copy is a second thing to go stale.
