BAPA History
Congratulations to BAPA on its Diamond Jubilee!
The Beverly Area Planning Association (BAPA) is celebrating its 75th anniversary this year. Every house in BAPA's "area" gets a copy of the BAPA Villager every month for free. This month is part 1 of BAPA's history; part 2 will be in February. The articles will probably be on the BAPA website, also.
Thank you to Mati Maldre, photographer and Ridge Historical Society Board member, for the use of his photo to illustrate the article.
