Mission |
|
We are pleased to announce the formation of the Beaver Island Conservation Club (BICC). The BICC is a 501(C)(3) non-profit organization open to all people who live, vacation, fish, and hunt on Beaver Island. Our mission is to rehabilitate, expand, maximize, and sustain the wildlife, forests, and fisheries of the Beaver Island Archipelago. Success will be achieved through scientific management concepts, responsible harvest, proper land use and sustainment, and public/private land owner cooperation. The BICC will concentrate on 10 key areas over the next 10 years to restore Beaver Island to the wildlife and fishing paradise of its’ not too distant past. Please see our projects section for an in depth discussion of each cornerstone of the BICC plan. |
