15th Anniversary of BINN

15th Anniversary of BINN

Beaver Island News on the â??Net has been in the business of providing weekly news since 1999, so we are celebrating our fifteenth (15th) anniversary. As part of this anniversary celebration, BINN is moving into video even more seriously. We are working toward doing a multi-camera live-streaming video of events happening on Beaver Island, with the option of moving into live-streaming of sports events that take place in the Northern Lights League at off-Island locations. We will still provide news coverage of events on Beaver Island in photos and text, but expand the video capabilities.

We will not leave our dial-up friends without the Beaver Island News on the â??Net. This is one of the reasons that we do not change the basic website design that we use. Fancier designs take too long to download for our dial-up subscribers.


Right now, we are looking for sponsors for our upgrades and expansions. If you know of any individuals and businesses that might be interested in inexpensive advertising on our homepage, please have them contact Joe Moore, editor at medic5740@gmail.com.

If you want an idea of how far we have come since the beginning, you can view many years at:

Some (video and pictures) is missing, but most of it is there from part of 2000-2012.

Congratulations, Joe and Phyllis! Your contributions with coverage of island events, township meetings, and the dissemination of information on "News on the Net" are valued far and wide. The latest Forest Health presentations by the MDA and DNR with a community survey component are the latest examples of valued reporting! Keep up the great coverage!

I just finished (I think) updating the archives to include 2013. It took half the day just to upload the pictures. You have free access to all of this at:
