The Bowness Historical Society provides its members with a
quarterly newsletter under the mast head of "Bowness Beacon". The Bowness
Beacon newsletter revives the tradition of the newspapers of the Village
and town of Bowness, including the Bowness Bulletin and the Bowness Beacon
newspapers. The original Beacon newspaper was published between 1952 and
1959 and was edited by Donald W. Davies.
We will reprint articles
from the original newspapers to celebrate the pioneers and events of early
Bowness. The new Beacon will also contain current announcements, stories
and photographs provided to us. The new Bowness Beacon will be edited by
members of our board in rotation. Past issues will also be posted on this
web site.
We welcome your participation in providing news,
announcements, and stories or photos of old Bowness that we can print in
future newsletters. Hopefully, the Bowness Beacon will help re-establish
acquaintances, friendships and memories. We welcome your suggestions for
making this an interesting publication. |
