Retiring from .their farm life son September • 1st, to become ;town -dwellers, the Bogies were especially honored as founders of this. resort area, on the shores of lovely Lake Huron, 30 years ago; in which time it has be- come a private community' of some SO-cottagers and their families, from various parts of the United States and the Pro- vince of Ontario. This gathering was also par- ticularly marked as the first annual meeting of the Bogie's Beach Property Association, formed in August: 1961. On behalf of its members, Mr..Ad- rian Swanton, eloquently ex- pressed appreciation for the as sistance the Bogies . had rend- ered each cottager in becoming established, all .down the years, and, presented a generous gift of cash to purchase a remem- brance for their new" home. In responding, also for his wife, Mr. Bogie thanked the mem- bers and• their visitors for their graciousness and the inspira- tion "their friendships had brought.
