By Emily MeierHarbor Light Newspaper LitChat editor

The first time I ever laid eyes on Jerry Dennis, he was standing in a field with a fly rod. I didn’t introduce myself. Instead I stood a respectful distance away and watched as he practiced casting. His concentra-tion was wholly in the moment with the rod working as an extension of his arm, his body. It was a quiet, practiced, dance. The line above him, and then out in front of him, whispered his tune.

In town to talk about a recent book, and offer tips on writing to a group of people attending a writer’s con-ference, he’d slipped away between speaking engagements.

Slipping away has always been something I’ve done, especially when a beautiful landscape taunts from a window or open door. I knew better than to disturb him. Though, over the years, as we’ve become better acquainted, I’ve learned that he genuinely enjoys the company of others and graciously welcomes writers, enthusiasts, and friends into even his quietest moments.

Jerry Dennis is an accomplished writer of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry. His essays and short fiction have appeared in more than 100 publications, including The New York Times, Smithsonian, Audubon, Orion, American Way, Gray’s Sport-ing Journal, and Michigan Quarterly Review. His books, many of them illustrated by artist Glenn Wolff, are widely acclaimed, have won numerous awards, and have been translated into Chinese, Japanese, German, Portuguese, Czech, and Korean.

Over the years, in spite of all he has accomplished, he’s remained the same soft spoken, humble, curious, funny, and genuine person. It was

a pleasure to catch up with him on the cusp of his latest book launch.

EM: The new book, A Walk in the Animal Kingdom: Essays on Animals Wild and Tame is the third volume in The Wonders of Nature Series. The previous books, about the wonders of sky and water, are It’s Raining Frogs and Fishes and The Bird in the Waterfall. These are informative, fun, and beauti-fully illustrated collaborative works that you and Glenn Wolff dreamed up decades ago. Can you speak to what brought about the idea for this series all those years ago?

JD: Glenn and I met for the first time at lunch in a restaurant in downtown Traverse City in 1987. By the end of that lunch we had sketched out the gen-eral ideas and even the cover designs for the first two books in the series. Traverse Magazine editor Jeff Smith says it was a case of “collaborative love at first sight.” I had been think-ing about syndicating a regular newspaper column about won-ders of nature and was looking for an artist to be a partner in the project, and knew that Glenn would probably be ideal. Another decision we made by the end of that lunch was to do a series of books instead.

EM: Does Glenn help with the re-search for these books or does he stick to his illustrative exper-tise? What is the collaborative process like when you two are working together?

JD: Glenn does his own research looking for visual reference material. When he runs across information he thinks I’ll find interesting or useful, he sends it along. Likewise, when I stumble on interesting images, I share it with him. Our process is essentially the same now as it was when we began all those years ago. I’ll send him a rough draft—sometimes even just a single paragraph with sketchy details about the rest of the chapter. He then sketches in pencil a rough idea of how he’d like the illustration to look, scans it, and sends it to me as a jpg. I might have a suggestion or two for him, but usually he’s spot-on the first try. We trust each other so much and are so in tune with each other’s ideas that we only have to do a few back-and-forth passes.

EM: The first two books of this series (It’s Raining Frogs and Fishes and The Bird in the Waterfall) were previously published by HarperCollins. But this is the first time A Walk in the Animal Kingdom has been published. And now all three have been released through Big Maple Press, the publishing company you formed with Glenn and your wife Gail. What was the impetus to forming your own publishing company? What has the process been like?

Ephraim Shay didn’t stop inventing after he patented a geared locomo-tive in 1881. In fact, he was just getting started. This ingenious man built a steel boat, a stamped steel house and brought running water to Harbor Springs at the turn of the 20th century.

Join the Harbor Springs Area Historical Society for Shay Days 2015, an annual celebration of the ingenuity of Ephraim Shay with trains, games and fun for the whole family. Shay Days events take place Friday and Saturday, July 17-18 from

10 a.m.-3 p.m. at Shay Park and the Shay Hexagon House as well as the Harbor Springs History Museum at 349 E. Main Street. Admission for Shay Days is by donation and all proceeds benefit the mission of the Historical Society.

Live steam model trains will be up and running both Friday and Saturday under the tent at Shay Park (the green space at Main and Judd streets). The “steam up” will include a steam-driven Shay Locomotive and other trains run by the Michi-

Haynes exhibit to open at MuseumThe year 2015 marks what would have been photographer Virgil D. Haynes’ 100th year. In celebration of this anniversary, the Harbor Springs Area Historical Society is hosting a special Haynes show at the Shay Hexagon House Thursday, July 30-Saturday, August 1, 2015.

Virgil Dietz Haynes (1915-1998) was a beloved photographer in Harbor Springs who captured stun-ning scenes of everyday life in the area from the mid-1940s through the early 1970s. Haynes captured

Northern Michigan is a mecca for outdoor sports like running, biking, and swimming. The varying terrain, scenic beauty, and stunning waters make this area a destination for triathletes-- which is why the Little Traverse Triathlon, now in its sev-enth year, has become a premiere event for all ages and abilities.

Held in Harbor Springs on Sunday, July 19, the race will begin at Zoll Street Beach along the Lake Michi-gan shoreline. The 600 yard swim is in Little Traverse Bay, where the water is clear and sheltered. The 19 mile bike ride heads up the “Tunnel of Trees” route along M-119, with a few rolling hills with one solid climb at the turnaround point. The four mile run heads along the water on a flat, fast course.

Participants can race individually or on a relay team.

There will be a free kids race be-fore the main event, and every child will receive a prize for participating. The race is presented by Bay Ten-nis & Fitness and a portion of the proceeds will go to the upkeep and

maintenance of the Harbor Springs Bike Path.

To register or view pictures from last year, please visit www.littletra-versetri.com.

Volunteer opportunities are avail-able for the run, swim, bike, and kids race courses. All volunteers get a free lunch and t-shirt. Please call (231) 487-1713 for more information.

The 9th annual Cause for Paws will be held on Thurs-day, July 23 from 6-8:30 p.m. and will benefit the homeless animals at Little Traverse Bay Humane Society. This elegant evening will take place at the former Kimberly Country Estate located on Bester Road in Harbor Springs, now the home of Lisa and Paul Fair-bairn and Ann Phillips. Din-ner hors d’oeuvres, cocktails and live music will make this evening one to remember.

“Events like Cause for Paws are very important to Little Traverse Bay Humane Society because they raise much-needed funds that support the homeless animals in our care,” said Little Traverse Bay Humane Society Executive Director Deter Racine. “This fundraiser is essential in help-ing us provide nutritious food,

a warm bed and medical care to each and every animal who stays with us while they await their forever home.” Little Traverse Bay Humane Society is a donor-funded, non-profit corporation that offers a tem-porary home to companion animals. As a no-kill shelter, our mission is to offer warm shelter, veterinary services and personal attention to all the animals in their care, as well as proactive methods to control the pet overpopu-lation. Little Traverse Bay Humane Society is commit-ted to educating the public about the humane treatment of companion animals.

Tickets are $225 each. To purchase your tickets, please stop by the shelter or call 231-347-2396. Tickets are limited for this event, so be sure to purchase them soon.

Humane Society ‘Cause for Paws’ set for July 23

More than 50 members, guests and grant recipients attended the recent Hestia Women’s Giving Circle annual meeting at Harbor Point Golf Club. A total of $36,000 was awarded to local organiza-tions that support Hestia’s mission of promoting the economic self-sufficiency and well-being of women and girls.

Since Hestia’s founding nine years ago, grants total-ing more than $300,000 have been awarded to local proj-ects specifically geared to women and girls, including $124,000 to Planned Parent-hood of West and Northern Michigan and $88,000 to the Women’s Resource Center. This year’s recipients also in-cluded the First Tee of North-ern Michigan, North Country Kids, Petoskey Public Schools debate program and YMCA of Northern Michigan.

The highlight of the evening came when recipients shared stories of how grant money helps women and girls in Em-met and Charlevoix counties.

A member of the Petoskey Debate Team thanked Hestia members for their support and explained how her in-volvement in the award-win-ning debate program helped her gain skills that led to a University of Michigan schol-arship. A representative from the YMCA shared examples of how grant money for scholar-ships supports more than just attendance in the agency’s programs — it actively builds self-esteem and confidence among young attendees.

The Hestia Women’s Giving Circle is seeking new mem-bers. The annual member-ship fee, payable quarterly, is $1,000, which can be shared to make it more affordable. Mid-year is a great time of year to join, since membership fee can be pro-rated. Funds are pooled and all members are invited to serve on the grant committee, which is chaired by Mary Jean Meyerson. Women interested in learn-ing more about Hestia are encouraged to contact Denise Simon, chair, at (231) 526-

9302, or [email protected]. The organization can be found on Facebook and on the website of the Char-levoix County Community

Foundation, which admin-isters funds, at www.c3f.org/grants-scholarships/hestia-womens’giving-circle.html.

The Harbor Springs Ram Boosters are putting together the first inaugural Kelbel Cup to raise funds for high school student athletes and their teams.

“We recognize that athletics is an important part of the educational process and our intention is to increase our level of support for not only the student athletes, but the coaches as well,” said Ram Booster president Mark Carter. “We feel that this is as great way to encourage the community to con-nect with our school through athletics. Boyne Highlands is a huge help with this outing. Without the support of Boyne Highlands we would not be able to put this together.”

Proceeds from this event will benefit the Harbor Springs high school athletic programs. The Harbor Springs Ram Boosters is an organization made of volunteer members who assist, promote, and support Harbor Springs High School athletes. The organization involves numerous volunteers running concessions stands, holding 50/50 drawings, and similar activities. The money raised supports all of our teams including helping with uniform and equipment purchases, clinics, athletic awards, long range projects, scholarships, and coaches training.

The event is named in honor of Ed Kelbel, Sr. and Ed Kelbel, Jr.

Ed Kelbel Jr., a HSHS alumni, was a longtime Moor Course golf pro who had an untimely death in 2012. Ed started the golf program at Harbor Springs in the 1970s and was an All-American high school player who also excelled in baseball and basketball at all-state and all-conference levels. Ed Sr., a retired teacher from Harbor Springs and golf pro coached the golf team for several years and introduced countless young players to the game. They passed away within three months of each other, and would love to see not only golf, but all sports thrive in Harbor Springs for the students.

photos beyond the famil-iar, cherished local scenes, however, and this show will display some of the artful and unexpected work of the late photographer.

During this special three-day viewing, visitors can catch a sneak peek of the most intriguing pictures from the pages of a Virgil D. Haynes ret-rospective book showcasing many previously unprinted photographs. These images span eras from the 1930s to the 1980s. The book is a proj-ect of Haynes’ daughter Cyn-thia of Haynes Studio, who actively maintains her father’s vast personal photographic archive.

Although the book had been scheduled to be published and launched this summer and made it to final proofing,

a portion of funding required to run the presses was not quite met. Visitors will have the chance not only to view select images and text from the retrospective book, but also to purchase fine prints from the book’s collection offered for the first time.

In addition, limited-edition lithographs, giclee prints, books and other photographic art by Haynes will be available for purchase. Included will be special discounted pricing on the lithograph series first of-fered by the Historical Society in 2007-2009. Proceeds of the show will benefit the Harbor Springs Area Historical Soci-ety and its mission to connect learning about the past with appreciating the present.

The show will open with a special evening “birthday”

celebration in honor of Virgil on Thursday, July 30 from 4-7 p.m. at the Shay Hexagon House. All are welcome and light refreshments will be served. The show will also be open Friday, July 31, from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. and Saturday, August 1, from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Ladies Night Trunk Show | Nov. 15th

about summer!

Last weekend, the members of the Smith-Hoover Ameri-can Legion Post #281, mem-bers of the Women’s Auxiliary and the Sons of the American Legion along with some other local residents spent their weekend replacing the roof on the family home of a deceased

veteran. That’s what the Le-gion is known for - stepping up and helping to take care of our veterans, their families and their neighbors.

The charter for the Smith-Hoover Post was granted on May 17, 1920 and named in honor of Leo Smith and Stan-ley Hoover, the first area men killed in action in WWI. Leo Smith was an ancestor of Dar-rell Smith, who would have so much input on the local post in later years, and Stanley Hoover was Cynthia Haynes’ (daughter of well-known local photographer Virgil Haynes) great uncle. The post was first housed in the building used by the Women’s Relief Corp, the Auxiliary to the GAR (Grand Army of the Repub-lic) honoring Civil War and Spanish American War Vets, located across Main Street from the Methodist Church. In 1926, the Legion moved to its current location which was

rented from the Bremmeyer family until its purchase in 1945.

The charter for the Women’s Auxiliary was granted in 1922 and the Sons of the American

Legion were organized in 1967.

Over the years, the dif-ferent organizations within this Legion Post have given so much to the community. From the flags on the graves of veterans in at least 13 cemeteries to scholarships to sponsoring Little League and bowling teams to the fundraisers to help those in need, this is a group that gives without asking for anything in return. Over the years, they have raised funds with raffles,

bingo, talent shows, carnivals and more recently, cribbage tournaments and breakfasts. The Ladies’ Auxiliary has din-ners and bake sales along with other fundraisers.They have

often combined resources with other local groups such as Kiwanis, Masons and Fire-fighters.

The American Legion Drum and Bugle Corps has been an important feature of this post for a century and in 1991, the local post organized a very special “Support Our Troops” parade.

The names of those who have served as officers over the years read like a veritable Who’s Who in Harbor Springs’ history - names that I have

heard all my life. Over the years, they have included John Standish, Howard Taylor, Duane Rhine, Lloyd Hahn, Eder Mathews, Fred Etawegisk (spelling as writ-ten in record book), Al Reber, Bill Baker, Bob Squiers, Paul Ranney, Elwood Winegarden, Randy Lauer, Charles Backus, Bill Shepler, Paul Wager, Tom Curnow, Bob Hall, Leonard Ward, Bob Zumbaugh, Tim Hayner, Dave Johnston and so many others. These men were and are the backbone of the community, as are their female counterparts in the Auxiliary. Steve Sweet is the current Post Commander, Patrick O’Kenyon is the President of the Sons of the American Legion and Marge Ward is the President of the Ladies’ Auxiliary.

These people put in count-less hours working for others in the community, often with-out the kind of thanks that they should so rightly deserve. The Preamble to the Constitu-tion of the Smith-Hoover Post reads as follows:

“For God and Country, we associate ourselves together for the following purposes: to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America; to maintain law and order; to foster and perpetuate a one hundred percent Americanism; to preserve the memories and incidents of our associations in the Great Wars; to inculcate a sense of individual obliga-tion to the community, state and nation; to combat the au-tocracy of both the classes and

the masses; to make right the master of might; to promote peace and good will on earth; the safeguard and transmit to posterity the principles of jus-tice, freedom and democracy; to consecrate and sanctify our comradeship by our devotion to mutual helpfulness.”

I would say they’ve done an excellent job of upholding these purposes, the need for which still resonates today.

Thanks to the Smiths, to Cynthia Haynes and to Patty Lauer Bek for their help on this article.

Friendship Center FundraiserThe Friendship Center of Harbor Springs will hold a fund-

raiser for operating costs at the Wednesday, July 15 Farmers Market. 2016 Calendars with Harbor Springs scenes will be offered for a donation of $10.00. 100% of your donation will go to serving area seniors.

Breakfast in the ParkOn Sunday, July 26, 2015 the Harbor Springs Masonic Lodge

is going to hold the second of its “Breakfast in the Park” fun-draisers of the summer. Last year we attempted to bring back this tradition from the 1960s and 1970s. The “Breakfast in the Park” will be in the Tourist Park, which is located at the top of Ottawa Stadium on the top of the East Hill as you are coming into Town on M-119.

Hopefully, those who remember eating breakfast in the out-of-doors at the Tourist Park will want to come and support the Harbor Springs Masonic Lodge in its endeavors to raise funds for some of the youth and other community events in our area. With the monies raised from this fund raiser, the Lodge can continue to support the giving of Scholarships, purchasing special bicycles for the physically impaired chil-dren, provide support for the Baseball Commission, provide support for the Boy Scout Camporees held in our area, help with Fire Department Equipment needs and any other event requesting support for the good of our Harbor Springs area.

The price of breakfast is an $8 donation for an adult, $4 donation for a child age 5 years (kindergarten) through 12 years (7th grade), and free for children five years and under (kindergarten and pre-school and younger). There are no tickets to buy, so come out and enjoy breakfast!

See you Sunday morning, July 26th, between 8:00 a.m. and noon. We serve eggs scrambled, over easy, medium, hard and even omelettes. We serve bacon and sausage, potatoes, orange juice, coffee (caffeinated and decaffeinated), milk, and tea, as you wish. So come out and have a great breakfast

Farmers Market Report

What a glorious summer it has been! The beautiful weather has helped make the downtown Harbor Springs Farmers market an even bet-ter place to spend a morning and we have seen plenty of regulars and newcomers this season. As we head into this week, the fruit keeps coming. Late season variety strawber-ries, the first of the sweet cherries, and blueberries have all made an appear-ance and we know we will be seeing more. This week Cornerwoods Farm joined us with the first of the lavender crop and we are expecting Just Sunflowers to be with us very soon. So, what else is coming up this week? The Bay View Brass quintet students will be back with their music this Wednesday, July 15 and next, and Katie Lewis will rejoin us on Saturday, July 18. Both are very popular musical guests ~ don’t miss them! Felicia Benavides will be our first chef of the season for “Shop with the Chef” on Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. In honor of “Cow Appreciation Day” (Yes, it’s a real holiday...we checked), she will be showing us how to grill the perfect steak and how to make perfect sides to go with from our market bounty. You may remember Felicia as our famous green salsa vendor from a couple of years ago. Next Wednesday you can get a lesson in mushroom cookery with tips on foraging from Ashleigh Harris, our market

mushroom expert. We have more cooking planned for the summer, check out the schedule. All Shop with the Chef events are only $25/person and you get to eat the results! On Saturday, Eric Davis from Abuzz Creative will be on hand to teach tips and tricks for taking better market photos. This is being offered as a partnership with Community Connections of Greater Harbor Springs and is open to anyone. The cost is $10/person, $5 if you are a CCGHS member. Find out more about all of our events and sign up to join us at the Market tent. The new addi-tion of the “I Love My Harbor Springs Farmers Market” pic-

ture frame has been loads of fun! Grab it, snap a picture and post it on our Facebook page...show your market love! If you haven’t been down to see us yet, we hope we’ll see you soon, every Wednesday and Saturday from 9 a.m.-1 p.m.

Meet you at the Market,Cyndi Kramer, Market Master

Charlotte Ross Lee Concerts in the Park continue on Tues-day, July 21 with highlights from the Bay View Music Festival’s production of Rag-time. Bay View brings talented actors, singers, and perform-ers to the area each summer to perform at a multitude of Northern Michigan venues. This performance features over 100 cast members hail-ing from all over the state. The cast will be performing a teaser for their production of Ragtime, focusing on the artists featured in the show.

Wednesday’s concert brings Charlie Reager, a lifelong musician, to the spotlight. He has shared the stage with many well-known acts, most notably Willie Nelson. Such collaboration has given Charlie an exciting, and adventurous career. After singing and playing drums with Uncle Ugly for over 20 years, he decided to branch out and release his first solo effort. On the CD “Good Life” Charlie sings original songs, plays guitar, harmonica, and hand percussions. Don’t miss virtuoso Charlie Reager on Wednesday, July 22.

The Friday, July 24 per-formance comes from So-prano Elizabeth Cameron, a

versatile performer who has enjoyed success in a wide variety of genres. Cameron is the soprano soloist singing the music of George Gershwin with Spectrum Brass, an excit-ing ensemble that is commit-ted to creative collaboration. A passionate educator, Ms. Cameron is currently an in-structor of voice at Western Michigan University. She also maintains voice studios in Petoskey and Kalamazoo, both known as Stoner Studio.

The summer concerts take place in the gazebo in Penn-sylvania Park, with lawn or bench seating to enjoy the

music. Afternoon perfor-mances begin at 12:00 p.m. and last about an hour. In case of inclement weather, concerts will be moved into the theater of the Crooked Tree Arts Center, located two blocks east at 461 E. Mitchell Street.

If you would like informa-tion on sponsorship please contact Crooked Tree Arts Center at (231) 347-4337.

North Central Michigan College, in partnership with the Manufacturing Advisory Team (MAT) and the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians, will celebrate the success of the C3 Comple-tion Camp on Tuesday, July 21 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the LTBB Government Center in Harbor Springs. Students, families, MAT members as well as other industry leaders will be in attendance.

The Completion Camp was specifically designed for North Central’s traditional and dual-enrolled students who are working toward their CNC Machinist certificate. C3 allows these students to com-plete their degree in one year and be available for employ-ment. There are nine students currently participating in the intensive four-week camp in North Central’s Mobile Digital Fabrication Lab (Fab Lab), ending on July 17.

The Completion Camp was made available through WOCTEP and the $1.5 mil-lion ANA SEEDS (Sustainable Employment and Economic

Development Strategies) grant received by the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians in September, 2014. In addition to the Completion Camp, the grant has sup-ported the training of more than 70 individuals and the completion of training of more than 30 individuals un-der all four training modules (dual-enrollment, traditional college, employer-based and workforce development.) It has also allowed the College to add more light manufacturing equipment to a ground-based lab to be installed on the Petoskey campus, and hire a CNC Instructor, CNC Driver/Instructor Aid and a Career Support Specialist.

During the July 21 event, students will be able to high-light some of their work and network with the industry partners.

For more information on the Success Meeting, contact Shiloh Guarisco, SEEDS Proj-ect Director at 231-242-1579 or [email protected].

The Mackinaw City Area Arts Council has acquired a home for the 2015 summer season. Thanks to the interest and support of the Fine Arts in Mackinaw City, the owners of the Mackinaw Crossings, Jim Wehr and Trish Bradford, have generously offered space in the Crossings for use by both the Mackinaw City Area Arts Council and the Mackinaw Area Historical Society. The space will be known as The Cultural Center and the loca-tion is at the north end of the Food Court and across the courtyard from the Caboose.

Currently the space has been filled with the art work of local artists and also his-toric displays furnished by the Historical Society. Art-work by local artists include selected water colors by Judy Churchill, Chris Harwick, Mary Ann Moore, Shannon Cooley and Katy Stone. There are also acrylic and print pieces by Sheree Lincoln, oils by Brianne Crittendon and photography by Lorie Axtel. The building will be opened as often as volunteers can be scheduled to be present. The goal is to be open every Satur-day, from 4-6pm, in addition to days when special events are scheduled.

Activity tables are avail-able for those who wish to participate in creating some artwork of their own. There will be water color sets and paper for painting, and tubs of crayons and craft materials for children to make and take something. There will also be supplies and materials for activities conducted during the recent Discovery Camp that was co-sponsored by the Arts Council and the His-torical Society. An examples of such children’s activities include materials which help predict the weather. Later in the summer someone will be available to create children’s silhouettes.

Several events have been planned for the rest of the season.

On two Sundays, July 19 and August 16, from 4:00 to 6:00pm, The Creation Sta-tion from Cheboygan, will host a Paint and Punch. A $35.00 fee includes instruc-tion, supplies, a donation to the Arts, and refreshments. Adult beverages will be avail-able as well for a small cost. Reservations are limited to 25 and can be made by calling 231-627-7243.

On Saturday, August 1, from 4:00 to 6:00pm, a demonstra-

tion by jewelry artist and NCMC Professor Rosemary Gould will be given. This is an event not to be missed.

On Sunday, August 30, the Arts Council’s annual fun-draising event will be held at St. Anthony’s Reception Center, Mackinaw City. The event will reprise a 50-60’s Sock Hop, with special guest appearances by the 70’s and 80’. More information will be forthcoming.

On Friday, September 18, an Oktoberfest event will be held in The Mackinaw Crossings. A German Band, German food, adult beverages and lots of family fun will be planned for the evening. Again, more in-formation will forthcoming as details of plans are developed.

Again, the general public is invited to visit the Cultural Center, sponsored by partner-ships between the Mackinaw City Area Arts Council and the Mackinaw Area Historical Society, and made possible through the generosity of the owners of the Mackinaw Crossings.

As the summer heats up, tourists and residents alike are flocking to Northern Michigan’s lakes, ponds, and rivers. Many will spend their days swimming, splashing, fishing, and boating without consequence—but some may face the wrath of swimmer’s itch.

Cercarial dermatitis, com-monly known as “swimmer’s itch,” is a skin rash caused by parasites found in local lakes and rivers. After people swim or wade in these waters, they may become covered in itchy red bumps or blisters. The condition is caused by a reaction to microscopic parasites that are released from infected snails into the water. If the parasite comes into contact with a swimmer,

it burrows into the skin.The good news? Although

it sounds unpleasant, swim-mer’s itch doesn’t typically require medical attention, ac-cording to Joshua Meyerson, M.D., Medical Director for the Health Department.

“Swimmer’s itch is common in many parts of the world,” Dr. Meyerson said. “A topical hydrocortisone cream, an antihistamine like Benadryl,

or cool baths with baking soda or oatmeal can help soothe the itch. It’s important to avoid scratching the itchy rash, to prevent a secondary infection.”

Dr. Meyerson recommends that lake swimmers towel off quickly and thoroughly after leaving the water, to minimize any possible effects. Shower-ing upon leaving the water is also helpful. Children may need extra help with toweling and showering to avoid swim-mer’s itch. Dr. Meyerson adds that swimmer’s itch is not contagious, and the parasites do not live in swimming pools that are properly maintained and chlorinated.

Additionally, the pres-ence of swimmer’s itch does not make a swimming area unsafe. While the Health Department monitors pub-lic beaches in Northwest Michigan for the presence of E.coli bacteria—a much more serious threat that can lead to beach closures—beaches are not closed based on reports of swimmer’s itch. Results from the Health Department’s beach monitoring can be found on the Michigan De-partment of Environmental Quality (DEQ) Web site at www.deq.state.mi.us/beach/.

Swimmers itch may be present in lakes as summer takes its course

By Sue McGlaughlin

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico may have whales and bigger fish then us but the beautiful fresh water of Lake Michigan is far prettier than any ocean.

This party begins with icy blue margaritas (the color of our beautiful lake). Find a shady spot, set up a table and layout the spread of food.

There are no courses with this meal. It’s all about grazing on wonderful food, enjoying flavorful beverages and mingling with your friends. And when the temperature has hit its high, bring out the Mango Rita Pops.

KEEPING YOUR GUACAMOLE GREEN: Lay plastic wrap over the guacamole so that there is no room for air. It will stay fresh for a couple hours or until you’re ready to serve.

Harbor Springs is making a name for itself as a bur-geoning American literary hotspot-- with an upcoming major book festival in 2016, a strong community of readers, and several up and coming authors who call this town home.

One of the benefits of having several traditionally published writers in the com-munity is the opportunity to learn what happens “behind the scenes” in the publishing world. Between the Covers will host two local authors, Alison DeCamp and Kate Bassett, on Monday, July 20 for a talk on the art, craft, busi-ness-- and crazy-- that comes with writing professionally.

DeCamp’s debut middle grade novel, My Near Death Adventures, was published with Crown, Random House in February 2015. It was short-listed for the 2015 Great Lakes, Great Reads Award from the Great Lakes Independent Booksellers Association; was number one on the Michigan Bestseller list; is a top choice for educators and librarians as a historical and hysterical read; and has been high-lighted/praised in Family Fun Magazine, as well as many trade publications. Her next novel is due out next summer, with a third to follow in 2017.

Bassett’s debut novel, Words and Their Meanings, was published with Flux, the YA imprint of Llewellyn World-wide, in September 2014. It won the gold medal for the

IPPY Awards, highlighting the best small press books each year; was an honorable mention in the Foreword Re-view Awards; received much industry praise, including two starred trade publication re-views; and spent five months on the Michigan bestseller list. Her next novel is due out summer, 2016.

DeCamp and Bassett’s presentation is open to ev-eryone, though it is geared toward adults. Anyone who has ever been curious about how a book moves from idea to finished product will be fascinated by this insider look at publishing.

This free event takes place at Between the Covers on Monday, July 20 at 7 p.m. and includes an open forum/Q&A session. Reservations are kindly requested (231) 526-6658 or email [email protected]

EvEntsLocal authors to discuss art, craft and business of professional writing

On Wednesday, July 15 at 7:00 p.m. in Evelyn Hall, the Bay View Music Festival hosts Ken Morris, descendent of two of the most important names in American history. He is the great-great-great grandson of Frederick Douglass and the great-great grandson of Booker T. Washington. His life until the year 2007 could be described as distinguished yet decisively disengaged from his lineage until Providence called.

Today, Ken’s career and life path are driven by a mission to end human trafficking and all forms of servitude with a clear focus on the organiza-tion’s mission To Advance Freedom through Knowledge and Strategic Action. He could not have predicted that one day he would so fully em-brace and be defined by the characteristics that so closely defined his famous ancestors.

Ken’s extraordinary lineage flows through the maternal side of his family by way of the union of his grandmother, Nettie Hancock Washington (granddaughter of Booker T. Washington), and his grand-father, Dr. Frederick Douglass III (great grandson of Fred-erick Douglass). When Ken’s mother, Nettie Washington

Douglass, was born she was the first to unite the blood-lines. Ken is the first male to do so.

Ken is now the President of the Frederick Douglass Family Initiatives (FDFI), a public charity that endeavors to create a modern Abolition-ist Movement in schools all over the country through the vehicle of Service-Learning. Experts in the field of human trafficking and modern-day slavery agree that building awareness is the first step to ending slavery in our time. FDFI operates on the belief that students can best com-municate the message of abolition via the Internet and their extraordinary online social networks.

Some of the work done by Ken and the foundation since 2008 include: reaching approximately 60,000 middle and high school students through the Frederick Doug-lass Dialogues Tour; appear-ing on television, radio and in newspaper articles (including CNN, Newsweek Video, PBS, NPR, the Tavis Smiley Show, the Bev Smith Show, the Washington Post, USA Today and The CBS Evening News), creating the Abolition Day Project allowing students to

bring awareness of human trafficking to millions of people all over the United States and initiating HR 929, the House Resolution to rec-ognize Abolition Day interna-tionally as well as the work of Frederick Douglass and FDFI toward ending slavery.

The speech is free and avail-able to all as space allows. General questions should be directed to Chris Ludwa at 231-347-4210 or emails sent to [email protected].

JD: We’ve always been in-terested in the entire publishing process and talked for many years about one day starting our own small press. Our editor at HarperCollins used to laugh because every time we visited him in New York we wanted to talk to everyone in the company, from the executives to the design-ers to the mail clerks. So when we had a chance last year to team up with Gail, who has 30 years experience designing books and magazines with publishers from Manhattan to Boyne City, we knew the time was perfect to make the leap.

But we knew that run-ning a large operation would take up too much of our time and keep us from creating new work, so we decided to keep our company small. We decided the best way to do that would be to publish editions of our books (as well as prints of Glenn’s art) that we sold only through inde-pendent bookstores and on our own website. Our agent handles other edi-tions—including ebooks and print-on-demand books—that are pub-lished the traditional way and are available all over the world. But Big Maple Press editions are unique and available only at stores we personally se-lect and approve.

The final impetus for us was that we wanted to reward independent, neighborhood stores for supporting us all through our careers. When we were starting out it was those stores that cham-pioned our books and got them onto bestseller lists. We’ve never forgot-ten that.

EM: Writing is known to be a solitary endeavor, but you have welcomed col-laboration with friends over the years on various projects. What’s your experience working with friends and family?

JD: Very satisfying and fun. Ninety percent of a writer’s work is solitary, there’s no way around it, and I’m fine with that. But when you join forces with talented people that you respect and love you can create things that would have been impossible alone. That’s immensely rewarding.

EM: These books include fas-cinating facts about the natural world. How long do they take to research and write? Where do you even begin in your research for these books?

JD: I never think of it as “research,” but simply as a quest to satisfy my curiosity. Every chap-ter of each of the three books began with the same premise: “I wonder why…” We set out with the first book, It’s Rain-ing Frogs and Fishes, to answer questions about the sky that our kids were asking us and that, to our surprise, we couldn’t answer. Why is the sky blue? Why do some birds migrate south in the winter and others don’t? After that it

was an easy next step to seek answers to our own questions, as well. We go to the experts for the answers, reading books and articles by specialists and sometimes inter-viewing them. With the new book, A Walk in the Animal Kingdom, we had the added advantage of being granted access to biologists and zoologists with the Bronx Zoo and The Wildlife Conserva-tion Society.

EM: You have always written about the natural world, do you consider yourself a nature writer?

JD: I never think in those terms, maybe because I started out as a writer of fiction and poetry and continue to write them. I think of myself as just a writer. But nature writ-ing has such a long and revered tradition that I don’t mind when others apply the label.

EM: What writers have in-spired you? What books do you revisit/reread over the years?

JD: It’s a long list. Many nature writers, from Thoreau to Annie Dil-lard, but also novelists and poets all across the spectrum. I most often reread Thoreau, Tolstoy, Virginia Woolf, Saul Bellow, Hemingway’s short stories, Jim Harri-

son, Thomas McGuane, James Agee, James Joyce. Books that expand with rereading and seem to answer a need in each of the stages in our lives.

EM: What are you reading now?

JD: I just started reading an interesting and unusual book about perception and cognition: What We See When We Read, by Peter Mendelsund. Also Wait ‘Til You Have Real Problems, a wonder-ful collection of highly charged, intelligent, and impish poems by my friend Scott Beal. And Nathaniel’s Nutmeg, by Giles Milton, a fascinat-ing history of the spice trade in the 16th and 17th centuries.

EM: Do you gravitate towards certain authors or books when you are writing? Do you avoid reading certain things when working on a new book?

JD: It doesn’t matter what I read during the long gestation and research portions of a book, but when I’m in composi-tion mode, when all the cylinders are firing and even my dreams get involved, I find my-self reading only books that are far removed in subject, style, and voice from what I’m writing. The more different, the better. So when I was writing about animals I wanted to read about technology and the in-formation revolution. When I was writing about the Great Lakes, I went through a period where I read nothing but Latin American novelists.

EM: How has growing up and living in Northern Michi-gan influenced your writing? Do you think having a strong sense of place is important for writers?

JD: It’s certainly been impor-tant for me. Not for every writer, clearly. The place shaped my sensibilities, fired my imagination, got me interested in history, botany, geology, biol-ogy—subjects that when you dig in deep enough always expand to include the entire world. I love to travel and find new

places fascinating and inspiring, but I’m always glad to come home to northern Michigan. And so far my interest in the place has not waned. Just the opposite.

EM: What has been a highlight in regard to creating this series?

JD: One of the real delights for me was learning more about the mythologies, folklore, and legends that have always accrued to the skies, bodies of water, and animals. With Big Maple Press is has been working with Gail and Glenn and with my sons, Nick and Aaron, both of whom have become involved in various ca-pacities.

EM: How do you navigate the work/life balance, especially now that the publishing company has become a family affair?

JD: That’s always tricky, and even more so when you work at home and, as you rightly point out, with family. I tend to work until I’m exhausted, and then disappear on the water or in the woods until I’m recharged. Gail has been very good at reminding me of the wis-dom of pacing oneself. She’s even convinced me that it might not be a bad idea to now and then take a weekend off or even, gulp, take a vacation.

EM: Do you work on more than one project at a time?

JD: I usually keep two or three projects active until one of them pulls ahead and demands all my atten-tion.

EM: What are you working on now?

JD: A book about the sense of place—what we mean by the term, how we recognize it when we see it, how it is revealed in art and literature, and how it manifests itself in northern Michigan. I’m also in the early stages of a book about water in America—its role in history and its current status. And I’m always working on essays, poems, and stories for future collections.

Between the Covers and the Outfitter are co-hosting two other events this sum-mer, both of which will donate a portion of pro-ceeds to the Little Traverse Conservancy, in memory of Packy Offield.

Lisa Rose Nature Walk & Book Signing

Lisa M. Rose is an herbal-ist, forager, urban farmer, and writer. With a back-ground in anthropology and a professional focus on community health, she has gathered her food, farming, and wild plant knowledge from many people and places along a very deli-cious journey. When she is not in her own gardens or kitchen, Lisa can be found in the fields and forests, leading foraging plant walks and teaching class.

On Saturday July 25 from 2-4 p.m., individu-als and groups can meet at Between the Covers to begin a guided nature walk to nearby parks and outdoor locations. Then, return to the store for for-aged refreshments and a book signing of Lisa Rose’s latest title, Midwest Forag-ing: 115 Wild and Flavorful Edibles from Burdock to Wild Peach. Discover what you might be missing right outside your front door!

Open to ages 10 and up, geared toward adults. This is a free event, and reserva-tions are kindly requested. 231-526-6658, [email protected]

Josh Cohen Book Presentation & Signing

Between the Covers will welcome Josh Cohen on Tuesday, August 18 for a presentation and sign-ing starting at 6:30 p.m.. Cohen is the lead author and heritage ecologist of A Field Guide to the Natural Communities in Michi-gan. The culmination of three decades of work by Michigan Natural Features Inventory ecologists, this essential guidebook to the natural communities of Michigan introduces the diverse terrain of a unique state. Small enough to carry in a backpack, this field guide provides a system for dividing the complex natu-ral landscape of Michigan into easily understood and describable components called natural communi-ties. It’s meant to serve as a tool for those seeking to understand, describe, document, conserve, and restore the diversity of natural communities na-tive to Michigan.

Individuals and groups to are invited for refresh-ments, a presentation, Q&A and signing. The event is free. Reservations are kindly requested. 231-526-6658, [email protected]

The Readmond, Friendship, Cross Village (RFC) Volunteer Fire and Rescue Squad will host its annual fundraising event, the RFC Mini Fair, on Sunday, July 19, 2015, from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. The fair will be held at the Fire Hall grounds on Robinson Rd. between State Rd. and M-119 in Good Hart. Admission to the fair and all fair events is free.

The event features an art fair, music, free children’s activities, fire safety educa-tion, food, entertainment, a silent auction, a raffle, and a one-day-only -reduced price on the cookbook, Tastes and Tales along the Tunnel of Trees and the 2016 calendar. The cookbook, regularly priced at $35, will be available at the fair for $25 and the calendar, regularly priced at $15, will sell for $12.

The fair will feature free activities for children includ-ing horse-drawn wagon rides, a fire truck, a dunk tank, face painting by area artists and free games with prizes for all. Twister Joe, Northern Michi-gan’s balloon artist will make balloons from 11-3.

Direct from Blissfest, Dr. Goodhart’s Home Remedy will perform as will Kirby and other musicians, who will of-fer free music all day. Wander the fair or simply listen to the music.

“We want to give the com-

munity free, outdoor activi-ties for children so they can enjoy a day in the country while their parents watch them have fun or explore the art fair, the book sale, photo contest, or the silent auction or listen to the music knowing that their children are in good hands,” said fair organizer, Trina Hayes.

The fair emphasizes fire safety education and will offer fire extinguishers and smoke and carbon monoxide alarms at competitive prices.

“We’ll also have fire safety experts on hand and lami-nated fire safety cards for area homes,” Hayes noted.

The fair features the county’s largest gently used book sale, a bake sale, raffle, and an art fair with local and regional artists. The art fair includes more than thirty art-ists with hand-blown glass by Lynn Dinning, cut rock art by Northern Rock’s Al Dicken, ce-ment statuary, leather goods, pastels, acrylics, pottery, and birch bark and sweet grass by Native American artists.

The fair will also feature a number of food items, in-cluding burritos from Moose Jaw Junction, National Coney Island Coney dogs, Kilwins ice cream, grilled corn on the cob, hamburgers, pulled pork, chicken, hot dogs, bratwurst, French fries, chili cheese fries, and more. For breakfast and

dessert, the bake sale tent offers homemade cookies, scones, pies, cakes, jams, jellies, pickles, produce and flowers.

The silent auction, with bidding ending at 1:30 p.m., will feature gift certificates to local stores and restaurants, golf packages, professional services, donations from local merchants, best-selling new books, and fine art, home, and decorative items. Fair attendees can also purchase a 2016 calendar featuring beau-tiful photographs of the area chosen by visitors to last year’s fair and vote on photographs for the 2017 calendar.

“We host one of the last sur-viving, old-time country fairs year after year. A day at the fair and the beautiful beaches at

Sturgeon Bay and Good Hart is the perfect summer day in Northern Michigan,” Hayes said.

Admission to all events at the RFC Mini Fair is free. Pro-ceeds from sales at the fair will benefit the RFC Volunteer Fire and Rescue Squad training and equipment needs.

The Fair is located twelve miles north of Harbor Springs via State Road or M-119 (Lake Shore Drive) on Robinson Road. From the east take Rob-inson Road west from U.S. 31 in Pellston. From Mackinaw City the Fair can be reached by driving west on Levering Road then south on State Road and west on Robinson Road.

Annual Good Hart Mini Fair to be held July 19

From now until July 31, Crooked Tree Arts Center is accepting applications for the upcoming Juried Fine Arts Exhibition. This exhibition has become a hallmark to showcase artists from across the state of Michigan, and it is open to all Michigan residents 18 years and over. Crooked Tree Arts Center members are offered discounted entry fees. The Ermy B. & Gordon B. Bonfield Gallery will present the 2015 exhibit from Septem-ber 19 through November 25, with the opening reception taking place on Saturday, September 19 from 2 – 4 p.m. for CTAC members, artists, and their guests. Prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place will be awarded, $1000, $500, and $250, respectively.

The juror this year will be Kalamazoo artist, Ladislav Hanka. Hanka is a prolific artist with a BA in Biology from Kalamazoo College, a MS in Zoology from Colorado State University and an MFA in printmaking from Western Michigan University. His work is represented in numerous private and public collections across the globe and he was a finalist at ArtPrize in Grand

Rapids in 2014 for his work where he integrated live bees amongst his etchings to create a fascinating view of creation between the artist, beekeeper and bees. Over his career, Hanka has been represented in solo exhibitions and group shows from the Czech Repub-lic to St. Petersburg Russia, to Chicago and beyond.

To register for the 2015 Ju-ried Fine Arts Exhibition, ap-plications will be taken online until July 31 through the CTAC website where artists will be guided to the Café registration process via www.callforentry.org.

MinionsPerhaps I should keep this to myself, but I have to admit that I was very excited about this movie coming out. In fact, maybe I was too excited because to say I was let down doesn’t come anywhere near covering it.

First, it was another situation where the very best bits from the movie are shown in the previews. And whereas the Minions were such an important and hilarious part of the Despicable Me movies, they get a little tiresome on their own for a whole movie.

We learn a little history here, that the Minions evolved over the years from single celled organisms to the odd little creatures that we love, always serving the most despicable master, from T-Rex during the dinosaur years to Napoleon and of course, at one point they meet the young Gru (Steve Carrell) but their relationships with their masters never last.

Three Minions, Kevin, Stuart and Bob, travel out in search of a new evil master and wind up serving Scarlett Overkill (Sandra Bullock.) That’s probably the character that lost it for me; Gru had a certain charm and Carrell has an amaz-ing delivery. As much as I love Sandra Bullock, she just didn’t cut it.

To be fair, most of the kids in the theater were laughing through much of the movie, but they didn’t seem as en-thralled as they did for Inside Out. If you have kids wanting to see a movie, Inside Out is a much better story.

Rated PG for some reason that escaped me, I would have given it a G rating.

Friday, July 24th at 7:00 pmSecond Annual Women’s Lit Night with Fea-

tured Authors, Tasha Alexander & Renée Rosen We may have only one Women’s Lit Night under our belts, but it was such a roaring good time last summer that when Renée Rosen asked if we’d be up for another visit this summer, we felt pretty confident that we could make this a wonderful and anticipated annual tradition. We are thrilled to welcome Renée back to town, on the heels of success for her second adult novel.

This year she is joined by Tasha Alexander, who has published nine books to date in her acclaimed Lady Emily mystery series. In the most recent, The Counter-feit Heiress, the audacious Lady Emily (and her ravishing husband Colin) finds herself outside of her native Victorian London, and instead bound for Paris, where a murder at a masked ball begins a deeper investigation into the identity of the woman who has been killed. Was she really the famed globe trotter and heiress Estella Lamar? Was she, instead, an imposter? Who was meant to be murdered? And just when did anyone last see the Heiress Lamar anyway? The case of this counterfeit heiress is likely to be one of Lady Emily’s most challenging yet, and the answers to this case of mistaken identity can only be found in the darkest dwellings in the City of Lights. (If you haven’t yet read a Lady Emily mystery, you might start at the beginning with her first case in, & Only to Deceive.)

Renée Rosen also pens popular historical fiction novels, but ones which take place far from Victorian London, and instead unfold across the backdrop of the city of Chicago’s rise to eminence during the Gilded Age and the advent and heyday of department stores. Last summer’s Dollface: A Novel of the Roaring Twenties was a Between the Covers bestseller for 2014. This year’s What the Lady Wants is on a path to earning a place in the bestsellers for 2015. Mar-shall Field have built his empire on his motto of customer service: “Give the lady what she wants.” This famous charm and swagger also led to his scandalous and ultimately wrenching affair with Chicago socialite, Delia Spencer. Commencing with the Great Fire, and leading to the World’s Fair of 1893, What the Lady Wants is lush with detail of a bygone era.

We welcome individuals and book clubs to join us for refreshments, a panel discussion, Q&A and signing. This event is FREE and open to the public, but reservations are kindly requested.

Saturday, July 25th from 2:00 to 4:00 pmLisa Rose Nature Walk & Book Signing

Lisa Rose’s latest title, Midwest Foraging: 115 Wild and Flavor-ful Edibles from Burdock to Wild Peach has quickly become this summer’s book which calls to customers from the bookshelf and demands to be picked up, perused, and taken home for the family’s next foraging adventure. Every person who makes their home or spends a season in the Midwest will be surprised and excited to learn of the many edible plants which can be easily found in abundance in and around Northern Michigan. This volume is beautifully and simply organized, with at least one full-color photograph per plant. Laid out alphabetically, every entry is accompanied by succinct text, providing even the most novice foragers with information on how to identify, where/when/how to gather, how to eat or prepare, and how to ensure the plants longevity and future propagation.

Lisa Rose is an herbalist, forager, urban farmer, and writer. With a background in anthropology and a professional focus on com-munity health, she has gathered her food, farming, and wild plant knowledge from many people and places along a very delicious journey. When she is not in her own gardens or kitchen, Lisa can be found in the fields and forests, leading foraging plant walks and teaching classes on edible and medicinal wild plants.

Open to ages 10 and over (with a focus for adults), individuals and groups can meet for this event at Between the Covers to begin a guided nature walk to nearby parks and outdoor locations. Then, return to the store for foraged refreshments and a book signing. Discover what you might be missing right outside your front door! This event is FREE and open to the public, but reservations are kindly requested.

This event is co-hosted by The Outfitter, and is one of a series of three events this summer, of which a portion of proceeds will be donated to Little Traverse Conservancy in memory of Packy Of-field. (A full feature on these collaborative events will appear in next week’s edition of The Harbor Light.)

The year 2015 marks what would have been photogra-pher Virgil D. Haynes’ 100th year, In celebration of this an-niversary, the Harbor Springs Area Historical Society is host-ing a special Haynes show at the Shay Hexagon House Thursday, July 30 through Saturday, August 1, 2015. Virgil Dietz Haynes (1915-1998) was a be-loved photographer in Harbor Springs who captured stunning scenes of everyday life here from the mid-1940s through the early 1970s. But Haynes photo-graphic work stretches beyond the familiar, cherished local scenes. This summer, you have a chance to explore some of this artful and unexpected work of the late photographer. During this special three-days-only viewing, visitors can catch a sneak peek of the most intrigu-ing pictures from the pages of a Virgil D. Haynes retrospective book showcasing many previ-ously unprinted photographs. These images span eras from the 1930s to the 1980s. The book is a project of Haynes’ daughter Cynthia of Haynes Studio who actively maintains her father’s vast personal pho-tographic archive. Although the book had been scheduled to be published and launched this summer and has made it all the way to final proof, the por-tion of funding required to run the presses was not quite met. Visitors will have the chance not only to view select images and text from the retrospective book, but also to purchase fine prints from the book’s collec-tion offered for the first time. In addition, limited-edition lithographs, giclee prints, books and other photographic art by Haynes will be available for purchase. Included will be special discounted pricing on the lithograph series first of-fered by the Historical Society in 2007-2009. Proceeds of the show will benefit the Harbor Springs Area Historical Society and its mission to connect learning about the past with appreciating the present. The

show will open with a special evening “birthday” celebration in honor of Virgil on Thursday, July 30 from 4:00 to 7:00 pm at the Shay Hexagon House. All are welcome and light re-freshments will be served. The show will continue Friday, July 31, from 10 am to 5 pm and Saturday, August 1, from 10 am to 3 pm.

L’Arbre Croche Museum is, open for the season on Satur-days from 1-3 pm, and also by appointment.

Michigan has 11,000 inland lakes and over 1,850 units of government who share a role in keeping those lakes clean for future generations. Work-shops will be held around Michigan during the sum-mer of 2015-- including one at North Central Michigan College-- to help local offi-cials and concerned citizens understand the benefits of inland lakes to communities, the regulations that govern them, and the opportunities for enhancing protection at the local level.

The workshop at North Central Michigan College will take place in the Library Conference Center on August 6 from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. and lunch will be provided.

The fee is $20 per person and registration is required 10 days prior to each work-shop. Five educational credits for Master Citizen Planners

(MCP) will be available. Topics will include: the importance of inland lakes and wetlands, what you can do at the local level, natural features set-backs, existing legal frame-work, and how to get started in your community

The workshops are funded in part with an EPA Wetlands Program Development Grant and are hosted by the Van Buren Conservation District with support from the De-partment of Environmental Quality, Michigan Lake and Stream Associations, Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council, Southwest Michigan Plan-ning Commission, and MSU Extension.

For more information or to register, visit www.Van-BurenCD.org or contact Erin Fuller at 269-657-4030 x112 [email protected].

Hospice of Northwest Michigan will receive a grant from the Marana Webber Tost Charitable Fund of the Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation to be used towards meeting the im-mediate and emergent needs of hospice patients.

Amy Wieland, Executive Di-rector, said the funding will be used to establish an Essential Needs Fund that will assist with temporary safe transi-tional living arrangements for unexpected or rapid decline or for short term respite care for a patient in response to a caregiver crisis.

“We are extremely grate-ful to the Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation for supporting this need and for recognizing the gap in access to safe living arrangement during an emer-

gency or crisis,” Wieland said. “The funding will allow Hos-pice of Northwest Michigan the flexibility to immediately respond to our patients and families needs.”

Wieland said Hospice of Northwest Michigan is the only non-profit, community-based, locally-managed hos-pice in northern lower Michi-gan, meaning it is not owned, operated, regulated or sup-ported by corporate interests. “That gives us the flexibility to make decisions that serve our own communities’ unique and ever-changing needs,” she explained. “Of course, it also means we’re much more dependent on local support to survive.” To learn more about Hospice of Northwest Michigan or to schedule pre-sentations to local organiza-tions please contact Wieland
