Editor’s Note: This November 4, five candidates will be on the ballot for three open seats on the Harbor Springs Board of Education. We invited each candidate to reply to a set list of questions, and their answers will be included in the Harbor Light for the next several weeks. Readers will also be able to access all five interviews online www.harborlightnews.com, prior to the election.

The second candidate in this series is incumbent Diane Novak, who served a previous term on the board and was appointed to fill an open seat ear-lier this year. Novak and her husband have two elementary-age children in Harbor Springs Public Schools.

Harbor Springs Public Schools has a mission to “be extraordinary”-- what does this mean to you? In what ways do you think our district is already extraordinary? What areas need improvement?

To me, “Be Extraordinary” means to be exception-al, remarkable, and to go above and beyond what is normally expected. The people of our district make it extraordinary. The energetic, enthusiastic students; the actively involved and supportive parents, community members and businesses; the dedicated and compassionate administrators, teachers, and support staff. In addition, small class sizes allowing more individual attention, varied course offerings, one-to-one state of the art technology, rigorous curriculum standards, high test scores and college ac-ceptance rates, all make our district an extraordinary place to learn. Also of value are the extensive extracurricular, fine arts, and athletics opportunities.

To be extraordinary, we must consistently self-evaluate and make im-

provements. Trust, accountability and school pride among all levels of stakeholders in the district is vital to the school’s success. This can be achieved through improved communication (of expecta-tions, processes, and outcomes), being proactive, doing what one says they will do in a timely fashion, and maintaining positive attitudes.

The teachers of our district work hard daily to individualize instruction to meet the needs of di-verse learners. Improving strategies and resources available to them for the identification and effi-cient use of meaningful student assessment data (both formative and summative) used to drive instruction will help teachers further meet the needs of diverse learners through remediation and enrichment.

The school district has focused a lot on ramping up technology in recent years. How do you think this is has impacted education?

Technology has the potential to impact edu-cation in significant ways. We are fortunate in our schools to be able to offer students the most current technology to complement and support various learning styles. Learning at all levels should be immersive, engaging, hands-on, and

real world problem-based. Technology implementation should be used to enhance this type of learning, not to replace it. Keeping the technology use age-appropriate, teachers are able to prepare students to be competitive for the future in higher education and work force environments, as well as strengthen the home-school connection. In order to have the greatest

The Women’s Resource Center will host the area’s first Tribute Awards, celebrating extraordinary women, young women and men in northern Michigan, on Thursday, November 6. Held at the Perry Hotel, the reception will honor people who are especially committed to strengthening com-mittee and improving the lives of those who live here.

With plans to make this an annual event, the first round of honorees includes a great number of Harbor Springs residents. The entire U15 Harbor Springs Soccer Team is be-ing awarded the Youth Tribute, and Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council’s Gail Gruenwald will receive the Busi-ness/Professional Tribute.

The U15 Harbor Springs Soccer Team, coached by Cindy Hunt, Den-nis Wagner and Anne Fleming, in-cludes Madi Bezilla, Erica Crandell, Ellie Fleming, Allison Fought, Marin Hoffman, Chloe Hogan, Alyssa Hunt, Madison Hunt, Lauren Johansen, Martha Johnston, Clara Pater, Zoe Shepherd and Emma Wagner.

“This entire team has demonstrat-ed leadership, kindness and respect since they formed six years ago. They are all leaders by example, on and off the field. Their sportsmanship and respect for others are recognized on a regular basis,” the nomination form said.

One of the most important aspects of the team’s ethos happens off the field. Each season, the girls focus on ways to be of service to others. Most extra curricular activities and athletic groups are known for raising funds for their own programs. This team, however, has a reputation for putting others first. In addition to traditions like performing carols at Bay Bluffs Care Facility each Christ-mas, the team has held fundraisers for a fellow student battling cancer, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (on behalf of a local 10 year old who has CF and shares their passion for soc-

The Harbor Springs Public Schools election will take place in conjunction with the Novem-ber 4 general election. The following two school ballot questions will be included:

Three seats on the Board of Education, with five candidates running for the open positions:

Brad Backus; Scott Cameron; Tim Davis; Robert Fuhrman; Diane Novak

The district’s annual operating millage will also be up for renewal:

The proposal will allow the school district to continue to levy not more than the rate of 13.9911 mills “against all property except principal residence and other property ex-empted by law” in order for the schools to receive their per pupil allowance. This non-homestead property tax, though passed by voting residents, only affects commercial and second home properties, and accounts for the majority of the district’s budget revenue.

Homecoming in Harbor Springs

The beat goes on in Harbor Springs, and last week the com-munity gathered to celebrate Harbor Springs High School’s Homecoming festivities. Led by the marching band, football players, class floats and Home-coming court members-- along with a whole host of past crowned Homecoming Queens-- made their way down Main Street. The football game ended in a loss, but the night was a win for Ram spirit. Turn inside for more photos.

Michigan

Emmet County among many municipalities seeking Trust Fund dollarsRequests would add land and improve parks

By ERIC FREEDMANCapital News Service

LANSING – From the Upper Pen-insula to Ottawa County and from Southeast Michigan to St. Joseph County, local governments and the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) are lining up for funds to ac-quire new parkland and recreation sites.

For example, applicants this fall are seeking $18.7 million from the Natural Resources Trust Fund to buy property around the state. That includes $276,500 to buy 40 privately owned acres bordering Hofma Park and Preserve in Ottawa County’s Grand Haven Township.

Township manager Bill Cargo said the Grand Rapids Roman Catholic Diocese is selling the property, half of which is high-quality wetlands that provides habitat for species of concern such as the Eastern box turtle.

If the trust fund money comes through, the township would build a boardwalk trail in the wetlands

DNR releases deer forecastThe Michigan Department of Natu-ral Resources announced that its an-nual deer season forecast (2014 Deer Hunting Prospects) is now available online. DNR deer program biologists predict that, overall, hunters this season will see similar success rates as in 2013. The forecast is designed to give hunters a better idea of what to expect in the woods this season and includes:

Regional information breakdowns for the Upper Peninsula, the north-ern Lower Peninsula and the south-ern Lower Peninsula.

An overview of important changes for this license year, including infor-mation on multiple-year deer regu-lations, the new hunting and fishing license options, deer management unit boundaries for southern Michi-gan, and more.

Updates on wildlife health and diseases.

For more tips and information on having a safe, successful deer season (including location of deer-check stations, antler point restriction FAQs and hunting digests), visit the DNR website www.michigan.gov/deer.

impact on student learning, the district needs to support teachers through ongoing technology training oppor-tunities.

The Board of Education has talked a lot about how much money should remain in the district’s fund balance. How much savings do you think the Board of Educa-tion should see the district maintains?

I feel the district should keep approximately 20% of the budget in fund balance, which we (past and current boards) have worked to maintain. The majority of this should remain unassigned for flexibility in dealing with unanticipated emergencies. Any cuts nec-essary to maintain this level should be made with the least possible amount of impact to students. A small portion of this fund balance may be assigned for needs such as curriculum or capital assets; however, fund balance should not be used for recurring costs. Maintaining this level of fund balance is beneficial to taxpayers because of the more favorable bond rating result-ing in lower interest costs on issued bonds.

Enrollment has been an-other topic of discussion for several years, as class sizes shrink in Harbor Springs. What thoughts do you have on this trend, schools of choice, and what effect a smaller student population will have on the district as a whole?

As an “out-of-formula” school district, Harbor Springs Pub-lic Schools is not financially affected in the same way as other districts by the student count-dependent founda-tion allowance. Fortunately, our nonhomestead millage generates enough revenue to exceed our statutory founda-tion. There is a fine line, how-ever, to the number of schools of choice students our district should accept. Welcoming too many students brings us closer to becoming “in-formula” which would have a significant, disastrous effect on our operating budget, and also harms our neighboring districts who lose per-pupil funding. A smaller student population has its effects on

our district as well, though not all negative. Smaller class sizes lead to more op-portunity for individualized instruction. Negatively, de-clining enrollment can lead to frequent staff reassignment or reduction, which could also lead to reduced course offer-ings. It could also become increasingly difficult to fill the band or a complete team roster in many sports leading to a reduction in athletic of-ferings and success. I feel the best approach is to continue as we have been, offering limited schools of choice placements in specific grade levels with significant decline to maintain optimal numbers, in order to provide the best educational environment and extra-curricular opportuni-ties for our students.

The district’s new strategic plan was put into place last year. What goals do you think are most important?

I participated in the Strategic Planning Process and find val-ue in all seven goals. Together they form an“extraordinary” model of education. I feel fortunate to have had the op-portunity to work alongside so many community mem-bers and staff who contrib-uted their time and passion to this plan. I am a supporter of the Learn Local initiative, enhanced communication, and improved Health and Wellness in our schools; and nothing is more important than the safety and security of our students. I feel the three goals that will have the larg-est educational impact on the greatest number of students include: “Implement Com-mon Core Standards and Depth of Knowledge”, which includes aligning curriculum, improving the teacher evalu-ation process, and updating curriculum materials. Stu-dents need to be engaged in active, experiential learning to deepen critical thinking skills. “Improving Opportuni-ties for Students with Diverse Learning Needs”, in which identifying at-risk students, completing comprehensive child studies, and utilizing student assessment data more efficiently to drive dif-ferentiated instruction will ensure greater success for all students. And finally, “Sup-

port Teachers as they Utilize Technology to Enhance In-struction”. The opportunities are endless for incorporating technology into the curricu-lum to deepen understand-ing, actively engage, and pre-pare students to be successful in higher education and the workforce. The hardware has been provided by the tech bond, now we need to support our teachers in the implementation process for the greatest outcomes.

How would you describe the role of a school board, and individual school board members?

The role of the school board is to set the vision and goals of the district, reflecting the views and values of the com-munity, and to write and uphold policies that direct the district toward achieving that vision, ensuring that students get the best education pos-sible. The board also hires and evaluates the superintendent, and adopts and oversees the annual budget, maintaining an acceptable fund balance.

My goals as an effective school board member are to contribute my perspective and ideas while working col-laboratively with the other board members, to listen to and advocate for the views and values of the community, and to demand accountabil-ity. Not to micromanage, but to direct concerns through the proper avenues for reso-lution. Most importantly, I strive to always keep the best interests of the students at the forefront of all decisions.

What skill sets or profes-sional expertise do you feel you could bring to the Board of Education?

I am currently serving as a trustee on the Board of Education, also having served for a year and a half during a previous appointment. I’ve completed several courses of the Michigan Association of School Boards to become a more effective school board member. I’ve participated on the District Steering Commit-tee, including the Strategic Planning Process, for the past 4 years. I currently sit on the Facilities Committee and was previously a member of the Communications Commit-

tee. Through this ongoing involvement, I am actively engaged and knowledge-able on the current events, policies, and issues facing the district. I am an expe-rienced contributor having also served on several other boards including the Petos-key Children’s Nursery, North Country Kids, and currently the Hammerhead Swim Club Board of Directors.

As a former teacher (Public Schools of Petoskey), educa-tion has always been an in-tegral part of my life and I continue to advocate quality programming, curriculum, and high standards with sup-port for diverse learners. I understand the issues that are important to the families and stakeholders of the district, and make myself accessible to those wishing to share their views. Diverse perspectives are a vital part of any effective board. As a woman, educator, and mother, I offer a different view and provide a key bal-ance, collaborating with the rest of the board to efficiently accomplish the goals of the district.

How do you plan to com-municate your views and decision-making processes with the community?

Currently, as a board trustee I am available to speak to any interested community members by email ([email protected]) as well as in person. I am often at the schools and around town and love to hear the views of parents and community members. Regular monthly board meetings are open to the public and minutes are posted on the school website at harborps.org. A few things I would like be considered in the future to improve com-munication include having a short board update included in the principals’ or district newsletters, occasional in-formal “coffee talks” around town, and even the possibil-ity of a Board of Education social media page, as that is a prominent means of com-munication in today’s society.

Five candidates for three school board seats in November election...

Voters in the Harbor Springs School District will be asked to approve a two year renewal for a 13.9911 mill non-home-stead property tax on the November general election ballot.

“We receive 82-percent of our revenue from this mill-age,” said the district’s chief financial officer, Pam Gibson. “It’s important for people to remember, this millage only impacts non-homestead properties (second homes and businesses, primarily). Primary residences are not taxed.”

In the past, this millage has been approved on an annual basis, but with election law changes and school elections moving from May to Novem-ber, it will now be a two year renewal request.

“There is no change, we aren’t raising the tax rate, and it doesn’t cost primary home-owners anything,” Gibson said, when asked to list the key points of this millage.

The unique funding situ-ation is a result of Harbor Springs being an “out of formula” district, where sec-ond home/non-homestead property values vastly exceed that of primary residences.

The Harbor Springs Area Chamber hosted the 20th annual Harbor Heroes awards dinner on Tuesday, October 14.

“The Chamber and our community are very thankful to all those who serve to make Harbor a vibrant and welcom-ing town to live, work, and play. On this night we paused from our busy lives, came together, and celebrated an array of accomplishments,” said chamber executive direc-tor, Daniel DeWindt.

The following winners were recognized during the awards ceremony:

Chamber President’s Award, Individual, was presented to Susie John-son. Johnson is known as a “true cheerleader for Harbor Springs,” and has been the driving force behind the Young American’s Summer Camps. The camps gener-ate thousands of dollars for local schools, and Johnson’s passion for arts education continues to impact young people on a daily basis. John-son’s good friend, John Dem-mer, accepted the award on Suzie’s behalf.

Area Beautification and Ar-chitectural Excellence Award was presented to the Harbor Springs Garden Club, whose dedication to the beautiful gardens around town create a sense of pride for the com-munity, and set a tone for visitors who are experiencing Harbor Springs for the first or 500th time.

Emmet County Entrepre-neur of the Year went to Katie Capaldi, owner of Between the Covers. Between the Covers has quickly become an anchor store in downtown Harbor Springs, and Capaldi’s

dedication to the art of book-selling-- and the importance of volunteerism and service-- has already made a lasting impact on this community.

Capaldi’s innovations in-clude “Learn Local” programs with Harbor Springs elemen-tary students and hosting the kind of author events that not only inspire readers, but spread the word about Harbor Springs as a place writers want to visit. Capaldi’s customers, in turn, trust and celebrate the intentional, unwavering care she gives to each selec-tion found on the shelves at Between the Covers.

As a founding member of a new community event that will attract visitors from around the country, the Harbor Springs Festival of the Book (coming fall, 2016), Capaldi’s commitment to being a small downtown busi-ness owner is certainly worth celebrating.

The Harbor Springs Area Ambassador of the Year was as given to Jody Ewbank. As the heart of the Stafford’s Pier Restaurant, Ewbank’s spon-sorship and support through the restaurant creates fun-draising opportunities for numerous local organiza-tions like the Harbor Springs Historical Society. Ewbank also spearheads the Pier’s annual Thanksgiving dinner deliveries to families in need. She also manages and serves on several committees and is a member of the Northern Michigan Chorale.

The “I Can Do That” Com-munity Service Award went to Mari Schumaker, who serves as the Director of Community Schools for the Harbor Springs Public School District. Her recent accomplishments in-

clude the development of the Young Americans Camp and The Harborage after school program, which provides an exemplary opportunity for children in the community. Schumaker also leads com-munity basketball games for grades second-eighth.

In addition, Schumaker is in charge of the Performing Arts Center (PAC) in Harbor Springs. She’s worked dili-gently since 2011 to make the PAC more of a community asset.

Chamber President’s Award, Business was awarded to Harbor Springs IGA and owners Dennis & Suzanne Hug. The business hosts nu-merous activities like carriage rides, fundraisers, market-ing efforts of the chamber (namely Pure Michigan), supports school activities and much more.

They also have areas for recycling and Goodwill col-lection in the IGA parking lot, and participate in key food and beverage events like the Waterfront Wine Festival and Taste of Harbor.

Chamber Volunteer of the Year was presented to Jea-nette Scheffler, a member of the Harbor Springs Area Chamber who has dedicated time and energy to the suc-cessful development of cham-ber events, programs and/or activities. She is also a mem-ber of the resident’s council of the Village of Hillside and is known for helping friends and neighbors with rides to doctor appointments and grocery shopping.

Outstanding Citizen of the Year Award was presented to Gary Morse. Known to all as Gary Bob, he has a long list of accomplishments both

professionally and person-ally. Morse is the president of Harbor Springs School Board. He’s a tireless supporter of the Harbor Springs Rams, serving as the voice of Varsity Football on Friday evenings, as well as stadium soccer games and basketball games. Morse also coaches little league and is a championship basketball coach.

All this is topped off by a light heartedness, jovial and humorous demeanor, mak-ing Gary Morse one of Harbor Springs most treasured com-munity members.

Cinder Holzschu is the March dog of the month. Along

with her certificate, she played an extra special game during

daycare!

Last Friday evening was Homecoming here in Harbor Springs and what memories it brought back. The weather was wonderful, the stands were full, Queen Tia Esposito and her court were all lovely and the team, while their effort fell short, gave every ounce of energy they had to give.

As you are aware if you have read this column for the past several weeks, we had an alumni float this year and I need to take your time this week to thank the people who made that possible. Thank you to Vern and Laura Kors for the use of their barn and to my brother, Ken Morse, for letting us use his wagon and for pulling the float in the parade and for helping to put the float together and to Dave Leik for loaning us the bales of straw. Thank you to Sarah Tippett (Sarah’s Custom Sewing and Design,) to her mother Carol Tippett (Sewing by Carol Tippett) and to Pam Allerding (Harbor Springs Drapery) and to Janine Brosh

for their beautiful sashes for our Queens.

Thank you to everyone who made tissue flowers at home and to those who spent eve-nings in that very cold barn putting the flowers in until our fingers all froze; I’m not going to try to name everyone because I would undoubt-edly miss someone and then I would feel dreadful but, as they say, you all know who you are. Special thanks to Debbie Krussell Hall for giving us all a refresher on how to make flowers and to those who donated for supplies.

The biggest thanks have to go to our former homecoming queens, without whom this project would have just been a big wagon with some tissue flowers and hay. Our queens covered a range of over sixty years and every decade was represented; the response was better than I expected in my wildest dreams. Their willingness to take part and go above and beyond made this so much fun.

So thank you so much

to Shirley Smith Anderson (1953), Sharon Johnson Slo-cum (1956), Marge Bodzick Owen (1966), Sally Morris Sterly (1967), Sharon Tippett Smith (1968), Ruth Bodzick McCullough (1972), Nancy Warner Manthei (1974), Cindy Chellis Mason (1975), Kelli Snively (1977), Tracy Johnson Hollerith (1980), Siri Samson Graves (1981), Lyn Morse Wenz (1982), Katie Richards Allore (1983), Mol-lie Kelbel Carter (1987), Julie Walsh Osterlund (1989), Kate Gurney (1995), Kristin Piland Juilleret (1996), Maari Morris Tally (2003), Raquel Kosloskey Rae (2010), and Rhiannon Cullip (2013). You made this float what it was. And to Kelly Flynn Neer, we missed you and hope that your little one is feeling better.

A couple interesting notes; we had a mother-daughter combination in Sharon John-son Slocum and Kelli Snively (Aunt Myrna Proctor could have been on the float, too, if not for knee surgery last week) and an aunt-niece in

Marge Bodzick Owen and Katie Richards Allore. Mollie Kelbel Carter and Julie Walsh Osterlund both have sisters who were also queens and Nancy Warner Manthei is the aunt of Queen Alison Warner Walstrom. We missed all of the ladies who couldn’t join us, but it was great seeing the beautiful faces of those who did and they were such good sports, many wearing their sashes and crowns to the football game.

Tracy Johnson Hollerith had her royal regalia in place at the game and a little girl came up to her and asked, “Are you a princess?” Isn’t that what this was all about? Creating communication between generations and passing on the feeling of spirit that is Harbor Springs. Again, thanks for all of you who helped make this happen.

We need to offer belated Happy Anniversary wishes to Dave and Crystal Rankin on October 12 and Congratula-tions on the same day to Emmye and Andy Marihugh,

who were married on Sunday. While we are on anniversary wishes, Happy Anniversary to Dave Leik and his personal queen, Julie Kelbel Leik, on October 16.

Let’s start birthday wishes with a belated wish to Dan-iel Vandock on October 13; hope it was a special day for you. This week, let’s start with October 16 and birthday wishes to Patty Bek, Gary Tippett, Julie Flynn, Michael Erxleben and Spencer Kloss. Happy Birthday on Friday, October 17, to my niece Lynn Coors-Walker and on Satur-day to Cousin Julie LaCount Green, Jan Allerding, Paulette Bellmer and Frank Rhine. Sunday, October 19, Happy Birthday to Dana Phillips, Sheila Stolt Haen, Robert Jakeway and Henry “Ryp” Hankins and start the week next week by wishing Connie Warner a Happy Birthday on Monday. On Tuesday, Oc-tober 21, Happy Birthday to Kathi Roe Winter, Jean Radle, Zach Spaulding, and Ralph Gleason.

Support the Harbor Springs Community Food Pantry on Friday, October 24 through a “Fun, Food, & Fellowship” event in the Pier Restaurant’s Pointer Room, hosted by First Presbyterian Church of Harbor Springs. The event-- which includes appetizers, entertainment, a cash bar, 50/50 raffle, prizes and small auction items-- takes place from 6-7:30 p.m., and will benefit the food pantry’s critical community service during a time of year when usage starts increasing and

donations tend to slow.“With summer and back-

to-school activities behind us, we thought it would be a perfect time to plan an event that would invite commu-nity members to come out, re-connect, have a little fun, and learn about and support a very basic need right here in Harbor Springs. The food pantry seemed the obvious choice,” said Laurie Ford, one of the event organizers.

“More and more of our neighbors are struggling to put food on their tables, es-

pecially as the winter months set in. The pantry is such a community-based effort. It is all volunteer staffed, conducts no fundraisers and depends on contributions for its operation. It serves clients of all ages and turns no one away,” she noted.

The evening at the Pier is, as Ford said, geared to-ward connection and com-munity. Even several small silent auction items, like a progressive dinner for eight at local restaurants and a wine/cheese cruise for 12 on

Church hosting event to benefit Harbor Springs Community Food Pantrythe Pointer, reflect the tradi-tion of gathering family and friends together for food and fellowship.

Ford said while food drives are always helpful, fundraiser organizers recognize the importance of financial sup-port for non-profits like the Harbor Springs Food Pantry, because it allows volunteers to shop local grocery stores and MANNA Food Bank for items they know are needed on their shelves.

“This fundraiser is intended to raise funds and awareness of this vital resource, as well as invite people to actively get involved by donating and/or volunteering regularly,” she said.

To “make a night of it” the church also worked with several area restaurants (the Pier, The New York, and Teddy Griffin’s Road House) to of-fer 20-percent dinners that evening.

The Harbor Springs Com-munity Food Pantry is lo-cated in the basement of Holy Childhood Church’s Commu-nity Center. It is open every non-holiday Monday from 9:30 a.m.-12 p.m.

Tickets for “Food, Fellow-ship & Fun” on October 24 are $20.00 per person and are available by calling the First Presbyterian Church office: 231-526-7332.

The temperatures this past week were up and down with lots of clouds, not a lot of sun, and chilly early morning tem-peratures. We did finally get the perfect fall day in northern Michigan on Sunday with lots of sunshine brightening up the fall colors and giving those in the area a chance to view the fall surroundings on a wonderful day. The predic-tions for the next several days and into the weekend are for chances of rain every day - warm mid-60s steadily falling to the more normal highs of mid-50s. There will still be plenty of color around so if you haven’t already get out and take a look.

The Harbor Springs High School Class of 1959 held a reunion on September 13, 2014 hosted by Curtis Lightfoot. Those attending had a fun time catching up reminiscing. .

There’s yet another reason to cruise along M-119 to Pond Hill Farm: microbrews. In addition to the farm’s hard cider and wines, the farm’s own microbrew beers are on tap in the tasting room. Aptly named Tunnel Vision Brew-ery, the farm even has its own brewmaster, Ben Dark. Dark has a steady rotation of beers flowing through four different tasting room taps. The tasting room bar is located in The Garden Cafe.

“We built this bar in 2012 and just started using it in 2013,” Dark said. “Basically, we just started putting wine here first, knowing the goal was to also get our micro-brewing license. That license came through on April 11, 2014.”

Since then, Dark has been utilizing farm fresh ingredi-ents to make one-of-a-kind beers.

“One thing that is unique here on the farm is being able to utilize a lot of differ-ent things we grown here. We actually grow hops; I planted them probably two or three years ago when I joined the farm. We planted Kent Gold-ing and Nugget Hops. They trellised up, and actually grew up to the top of the deck post, with a huge vine network.”

“A lot of hops have made their way onto the farm,” Dark noted. “On the back part of the property, there are actu-ally wild hops growing. I took rhizome cuttings and started up plants from those, and they actually made it into a Belgian Pumpkin Dark Strong Ale.”

True to farming seasons,

Tunnel Vision Brewery will feature three different pump-kin beers on tap over the next three weeks.

“I didn’t know what to expect flavor-wise with the pumpkins. To me, it kind of has a lemony flavor,” Dark said. “I fermented hub-bard squash into a hubbard squash wine and it has a sort of mango, pineapple kind of flavor, and I’m assuming that’s sort of what happens with the pumpkin when it gets fermented by certain yeasts.”

Experimentation and small batch, true microbrew style defines Tunnel Vision’s choic-es for what makes it into the tasting room.

“We have had a whole lineup off fuggle hop beers,

and that’s where this Fuggled Up Cream Ale comes from. It’s a fun beer with a citrus/floral kind of earthy tone. Faceplant is a saison-type style, but we brew it with eggplant. We used to have rhubarb porter that we actually just tapped out. A lot of people either loved it or hated it. It wasn’t your typical beer and that’s what we are embracing. With the exception of our Pond Hill Porter, we aren’t going to be brewing anything that fits a ‘norm’. Basically, I try to keep things on the more unique side,” Dark said.

He began brewing beer during college and has been perfecting his process ever since.

“I started brewing back in

2009, so I’m going on my sixth year of brewing. I just really enjoyed it and I added on a biology minor-- almost a ma-jor (but then I decided it was time to graduate),” he joked.

Dark, originally from Che-boygan, went to Austin Peay State University in Tennessee before moving back to the area and joining the Pond Hill Farm crew.

“I got hired as the winery manager and I really enjoyed it because I have the guest ser-vices experience. I’ve worked for a couple of different ski resorts, including six years in Mammoth Lakes California, at Mammoth Mountain.” Dark noted.

Although he didn’t know much about wine at first, Dark

dove right in, buy-ing a winemaking textbook and study-ing it extensively.

“It really made sense with my bi-ology degree. We are part of SAGGA (Straits Area Grape Growers Associa-tion) and everyone involved is learning and sharing infor-mation. I used to do a lot more work in the vineyard, but this year I have just been trying to brew beer and take care of the tasting room.”

The brewery idea really got its jump-start when Dark was brewing beer for his wedding and began bringing his cre-ations to share with folks on the farm. “I just kegged five

gallons, and I would bring it here to the farm for us after a long day of work. Basically, the Spencer family (owners of Pond Hill Farm) really liked what they were tast-ing. They asked what I thought about possibly starting up a brewery for them. I said ‘Yes! I want to check that off my bucket list!’

As soon as Tunnel Vision started serv-ing to the public, the response has proven that a farm and brewery can go hand in hand.

“The brewing sys-

tem and the kegs we bought, plus the grains, have actually been paid off and then some. I think the Spencers are pretty happy with it,” Dark said. “My vision is to continue to ex-pand and build; I think that’s what pond hill is all about. We’ve basically been promot-ing the winery, building and growing the wine trail, and now, its almost like we are go-ing to have a beer trail.”

Dark said through the smooth brewing days-- and the rough, long, brewing days-- the ultimate goal is to keep quality and fun in mind.

“You put a lot of pride and joy in it and hope you make a good beer. That is kind of my philosophy on it.”

Tunnel Vision Brewery is open daily from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. To learn more visit www.tunnelvisionbeer.com or www.pondhillfarm.com. The phone number for pond hill farm is 231-526-3276.

that connects with the preserve’s trail system. For more active recreational use, it would build pavilions and a rest area in the uplands half, Cargo said.

St. Joseph County wants $504,800 for 137 acres for habitat conservation, fishing and swimming at Stewart Lake, which currently lacks public acres.

The U.P.’s Calumet Town-ship in Houghton County wants $80,000 to buy for a historic railroad depot for rec-reational use. The old Mineral Range depot, now privately owned, is located along public recreational trails that were once a railroad grade.

In 1976, the Legislature cre-ated the trust fund program to pay for property to protect natural resources and out-door recreation, using money

from royalties on the sale and lease of state-owned mineral rights. A 1984 constitutional amendment mandates that the trust fund use oil, gas and mineral lease and royalty pay-ments to acquire and develop land for public recreation.

Local governments must chip in at least 25 percent of the cost of an acquisition project.

The fund’s board of trust-ees is scheduled to make its funding recommendations on Dec. 3. The awards won’t be officially approved until the Legislature passes an appropriations bill, which is expected next spring, DNR communications officer Ed Golder said.

Golder said DNR estimates there will be $19.5 million available for acquisition and $4.1 million for development projects in this application cycle.

This year, the largest ap-plication seeks $5 million for property bordering the River Raisin National Battlefield in Monroe for recreation, con-servation and “improvement of urban areas.” Another big-ticket project asks $2 million for property in Southeast Michigan to fill gaps in a proposed 1,000-mile hiking and bicycling trail between Detroit’s Belle Isle and the Western U.P.’s Ironwood.

Among the other requests is $500,000 to add 150 acres to Saugatuck Dunes State Park in Allegan County, in partner-ship with the Land Conser-vancy of West Michigan. The parcel, known as Singapore Dunes or the McClendon Property, “contains critical dunes landscapes which are threatened by residential development,” according to DNR.

Another U.P. proposal

would buy 50 acres border-ing state forest land and Lake Superior in Chippewa County ($530,000), including habitat for moose, black bear, bobcat and the federally protected piping plover. Also in the U.P., DNR wants $750,000 for property that would provide recreational access to Lake Fanny Hooe between Copper Harbor and Fort Wilkins State Historic Park.

In addition to land acquisi-tions, DNR and local govern-ments want $25 million for development projects on existing public lands.

They include projects at Bayside Park in Grand Tra-verse County’s Acme Town-ship ($300,000), Arcadia Lake Michigan Beach in Manistee’s Arcadia Township ($298,700), Spring Lake Park in Emmet County’s Bear Creek Town-ship ($67,300) and Stearns Beach Recreation Area in

Ludington ($300,000).The maximum develop-

ment grant is $300,000.In Crawford County, a

$300,000 grant would go to improve recreational access to a skate park, trailhead and picnic pavilion in Grayling, with another $300,000 ear-marked to modernize DNR’s Ralph A. MacMullan Center.

Wolverine in Cheboygan County is looking for $289,500 to renovate and improve Lumberman Park and Trail-head.

Holland wants $300,000 to build a bridge for non-motorized use connecting Windmill Island Gardens to the city’s downtown and the planned Macatawa Greenway Trail. East Grand Rapids wants the same amount for Reeds Lake Waterfront Park.

Ionia wants $260,000 to build a downtown trailhead park. Traverse City is asking

for a bit less – $257,500 – to develop a boardwalk with fishing platforms on the southwest shore of the Board-man River.

Ishpeming submitted a more modest application for $93,400 to create a non-mo-torized loop trail accessible to users with disabilities that would link the Iron Ore Heri-tage Trail with several miles of “unique wilderness trails.”

The Natural Resources Trust Fund has awarded slightly more than $1 billion for acquisition and develop-ment projects between 1976 and 2013.

cer), as well as a campaign for the Women’s Resource Center Safe Home, collecting more than $3,000 and household goods to support families at the shelter.

“ They are all tuned in to doing the right thing, and put their knowledge into action. Why is this important? This group of young ladies range in age from 13 to 15 years old, a very vulnerable demographic to the outside influences of peer pressure and all forms of media. Rather than cave to those pressures, they stay strong in their beliefs of respecting others as well as themselves. They are a credit to their families and their community,” the nominators wrote.

Gail Gruenwald, executive director of Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council, is being honored for her tireless dedi-cation to protecting this area’s greatest natural resource, and for serving as a role model to women in all aspects of activism.

“Hired in the fall of 1984 to serve as the staff attorney, Gail took the helm as executive director in 1987. Since then, she has guided the organiza-tion through phenomenal growth and expansion of programs. Gail’s leadership at the Watershed Council has clearly resulted in increased community awareness and action to help protect, restore and enhance the waters that

define northern Michigan,” nominators wrote about Gruenwald.

Gruenwald wrote the first wetland protection guide-book for Michigan and conducted numerous pre-sentations to local units of government, state legislatures and even testified before the United States Senate on the importance of wetland pro-tection. Since then, the book she penned has been expand-ed and reprinted numerous times in Michigan and has been adapted for other states around the country.

Another example of Gail’s leadership, advocacy and in-fluence is the development of the Little Traverse Bay Fund at the Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Founda-tion (PHSACF). She worked with Consumer’s Energy, the PHSACF and an advisory committee of local supporters to develop a permanent en-dowment fund at the PHSACF to support actions that will protect, restore and enhance Little Traverse Bay.

“Like many leaders, Gail is a visionary, is a good com-municator, supports her staff

and volunteers, is creative and willing to seek out new opportunities, and adheres to the core values of respect, honesty and responsibility. In addition to these attributes, Gail’s leadership is defined by her belief in the value of empowering others and in the

capacity of individuals and or-ganizations to make a positive difference,” the nomination form noted.

Other awardees include Lisa Clavier (Advocacy Trib-ute); Babs Kutcipal (Commu-nity Service); Nancy Stewart (Pinnacle); Mark Fralick (Man-Up Award).

The Tribute Award recep-

tion also serves as a fundraiser for the work the Women’s Re-source Center does through-out its five county service area. The November 5 event will take place at the Perry Hotel from 5:30-7:30 p.m. Tickets $25/person, available at the WRCNM administrative office or (231) 347-0067.

I have poet friends on speed dial. I tend to need them most in the

fall.I still get stomachaches at the site of store shelves filled with school bus yellow packages of crayons and markers. The smell of certain clean-ing agents takes me right back to that precipice, the front door of the school building, where smells of summer (fresh air, newly mown grass, and lake water) are replaced by powerful cleaning chemicals comingling with

whatever school lunch simmers on the back burner of the school cafeteria kitchen stove. Upon entering the building, sunshine and birdsong was replaced by the buzzing fluorescent that could never fill the dark hallways.

It always took awhile for my senses to adjust.

In the 4th or 5th grade, I felt hopelessly stuck. I wondered if I would survive endless years of a life divided into fifty-five minute increments punctuated by a ringing bell.

On one particularly bad day of middle school, a frustrated and angry teacher snapped at me. “You have no idea how lucky you are to be here,” she said, first addressing me but then looking up at the rest of the stunned class to include them as well. “You are so lucky you are not adults. You have no idea the pressure and the stress. Your parents take care of everything you need. You’re fed and clothed and taught lessons. You just get to sit here and learn. You are free from any real responsi-bility. Oh, but it’s coming.” She waved a finger in my face and then at the class. “It’s coming alright. You have no idea what it is to have real responsibility, to have to run errands. Go to the bank. Pick up dry-cleaning!”

It was here that she lost me. I don’t remember what she was mad about, specifically. And I don’t remember what happened after this impassioned angry speech. But I do think about her words often, particularly the part about picking up the dry-cleaning. As a gangly middle-schooler, I stood before her in my ill fitting scratchy uniform, knee socks sagging, and tried to figure out what about dry-cleaning could be more stressful than being trapped in a classroom controlled by this scream-ing nut of a teacher.

I worked as a personal assistant to help pay for grad school. And every time I had to go to the drycleaner (sometimes twice in one day) I thought of her speech. I still think of her today whenever I have to run by the bank and stop off at the dry- cleaners. And every time I come to the same conclusion: I’d rather be at the dry-cleaners than back there, with her, in that classroom. I’d rather be schlepping someone else’s dirty clothes to and from the dry-cleaners every day. I’d rather have a resume filled with bad jobs.

Maybe it’s memories like these that are cause for the stom-achache that still lingers with me every fall. Or maybe it’s the shorter days that bring darkness a bit earlier. I try to find joy in the color of changing leaves and the promise of the perfect pumpkin. I try and take notice of the beauty in the darkening clouds and water. This is when I turn to poetry.

There is something about poetry that serves a medicinal purpose. Poetry’s concise lines and stanzas snap my shortening attention span awake and pull me from my animal like need to climb beneath the covers and hibernate.

Recently, I reached out to my poet friend Chris Green. His new book, Resume, has hit the bookshelves. Resume is his third book of poetry. He’s also the author of The Sky Over Walgreens (one of my all time favorite books of poetry) and Epiphany School. His poems appear in numerous publications (New York Times, New Letters, Poetry, Conversations Across Boarders, etc). He’s the editor of four anthologies, including Brute Neighbors: Urban Nature Poetry, Prose & Photography, and the forthcom-ing I Remember: A Poem by Chicago Veterans of War. Currently, he teaches in the English Department at DePaul University.

I met Chris in graduate school. And while the other poets and writers argued the legitimacy of their favorite literary he-roes over glasses of whisky. Chris and I bonded over a love of unexpected stories and words. But our true bond was formed through a shared love of peanut M&Ms and ice cream. It was a pleasure to reconnect with my friend and discuss poetry, books, and Ben & Jerry.

EM: When did you first gravitate to poetry? When did you first start writing poems?

Chris Green: I started writing poetry by accident in my early thirties. I was trying to write an essay about one of my grandfathers--after six months, I began to realize that I’d condensed the language so much that many paragraphs were actually poems. I submitted some paragraphs to a poetry contest and won. No one is more surprised than me that I’m a poet. I hated poetry in school—it’s taught like math where poems, like equations, need to be solved. School tends to test art out of us.

EM: Charles Wright defined poetry as language that means more and sounds better. How do you define poetry?

CG: I like Wright’s definition. And while I think it’s deadly to begin with meaning or meaningfulness as an intention when you sit down to write a poem, what you write does tend to inevitably mean something. And sound, sure—

there’s a soundfulness in poetry that you don’t hear in prose. I tend to have different defini-tions of poetry floating in my head at any given time. Lately, it’s Frost’s idea of poetry as “feats of association.”

EM: As a writer, how did po-etry become your genre? Did you ever feel a pull to write essays, novels?

CG: Any time I try to write an essay or story, I inevita-bly poop out a poem. I wish I could be a rich essayist or novelist, but I’m not. I make tens and tens of dollars as a poet.

EM: You are a professor and have taught for how many years now? How does teaching influence your writing?

CG: I’ve taught for over twenty years. Wow, I’m old. Anyway, teaching keeps me striving. I talk such a big game in the classroom that I find myself perpetually trying to take my own advice. I strive to write great poems and it helps to constantly teach great poets.

EM: How do you introduce poetry to your students? How do you get them beyond that fear of “not getting it”?

CG: I tend to teach poems that are humanly meaningful. And I try to relate the poems to real life. For me, it’s all about keeping poetry friendly. I don’t mean I skip on complex-ity; I just don’t want students thinking that poetry is only and always an academic exercise. I try to teach like Frost tried to write—he said that actuality and intimacy is the greatest aim an artist can have.

EM: How do you balance being a father, a husband, a teacher, and a writer? What is your writing process?

CG: Before I became a father, I wrote most mornings. Simple. And I was one of those people who bragged all over town about how different consistent writing is from occasional writing. But now, but now, there’s only chaos and I write only a morning or two a week. Don’t get me wrong, kids are cuter than poems, but I can be a real bitch if I don’t get a little writing time. So.

EM: Can you work anywhere, coffee shop, kitchen table? Or do you need quiet? Where is a favorite place to work?

CG: A hundred years ago, I needed quiet. But hell, now, I could write a poem mowing the lawn! I have a diner booth in my kitchen, which is where I usually write. If only my kids would bring me a malt once in a while.

EM: Does music influence your writing? If so what kinds and what are you listening to now?

CG: Snug in my diner booth, I prefer music that creates a soothing sound wall between me and the neighbor-boy playing basketball or my kids clamoring for parenting. I love to write to Al Green, Aretha Franklin, The Cure, Lucinda Williams, Kelly Joe Phelps, etc.

EM: What are some of your favorite lines of poetry?

CG: It’s difficult for me to think of lines in isolation. Recently, I

came across a great poem by Ted Hughes called “Second Glance at a Jaguar.” Here’s the poem’s second half:

He swipes a lap at the water-trough as he turns,Swiveling the ball of his heel on the polished spot,Showing his belly like a butterfly,At every stride he has to turn a cornerIn himself and correct it. His headIs like the worn-down stump of another whole jaguar,His body is just the engine shoving it, forward,Lifting the air up and shoving on under,The weight of his fangs hanging the mouth open,Bottom jaw combing the ground. A gorged look,Gangster, club-tail lumped along behind gracelessly,He’s wearing himself to heavy ovals,Muttering some mantra, some drum-song of murderTo keep his rage brightening, making his skinIntolerable, spurred by the rosettes, the cain-brands,Wearing the spots off from the inside,Rounding some revenge. Going like a prayer-wheel,The head dragging forward, the body keeping up,The hind legs lagging. He coils, he flourishesThe blackjack tail as if looking for a target,Hurrying through the underworld, soundless.

EM: What new books of poetry are you looking forward to reading?

CG: I hope this doesn’t sound grouchy or dumb, but I’m not aware of any new books at the moment. I recently thought it would be good to read, really read, The Norton Anthol-ogy: Vol. 2 Contemporary Poetry.

EM: What poets/poems do you return to or keep on your bedside table/office desk always?

CG: James Wright, Larry Levis, Norman Dubie, and Raymond Carver.

EM: How does your new book Resume differ from your past books Epiphany School and The Sky Over Walgreens?

CG: In the new book, all of the poems are based on jobs or thoughts of work; whereas, in my first two books, the poems are various--first losses, real loves, cherished dogs, the worries and wonders of being a husband, dad, and son.

EM: Who is your perfect audience? The person/people you write to when you write?

CG: I feel like I should say, “the great dead”! However, my perfect audience is my intelligent and interested friends. I don’t think I write with anyone in particular in mind. Oc-casionally, I picture family members reading this or that poem, but only because I’m worried I might hurt them.

EM: How did you come to write this collection of poems about jobs, the jobless, etc.?

CG: It came as I started worrying that my incredible, kind-hearted, artistic daughters may end up working in cubicles some day…maybe filling out grids, pushing information around. There’s nothing like the daily low-grade ass-kicking that you get in a horrible office job. Anyway, my hopes for my daughters inspired me to poeticize various jobs and evaluate the meaning of work.

EM: What are some of the worst jobs you’ve ever had?

CG: Mainly bad businessy jobs: the poet in khaki pants and stiff shirt. It’s difficult to say what I did, though I did en-joy those Swiss Miss hot chocolate packets (with micro marshmallow pellets) in most break rooms.

EM: Do you still enjoy peanut M&Ms or the occasional bowl of Ben & Jerry’s? Or did you really give up sugar for good?

CG: I was a vegan for a year. The great thing about being a vegan is that you can still eat junk food. I was a Big Fat Vegan. Anyway, today, I’ve eaten bacon, peanut M&Ms, and if all goes right, maybe some Ben & Jerry’s Oatmeal Cookie ice cream before bed.

I don’t have the heart to break it to him but Ben & Jerry discontinued that flavor. Maybe I’ll mention it the next time we talk and I am brave enough to pitch him my Junk Food anthology idea.

The medicinal quality of poetry


Varsity FootballThe Rams were all fired up for our Homecoming Game vs.

Frankfort. We had a good week of practice and had all kinds of exciting things going on at the school….

…There was “What not to wear Day” at the School… There was the Girls Powder Puff Game on Wednesday eve… The Var-sity FB players have the honor of coaching the two squads…Seniors vs. Juniors… they practice for about two weeks after our practice… there was a Pep Assembly Friday afternoon… and of course there was the Homecoming Parade before the game and a bonfire after the game…Homecoming Dance was Saturday Night.

As I said, throughout the week I felt we had good focus and good practices. Unfortunately, Frankfort must have had good practices too. The Rams fell by a score of 14 – 40. Due to a cancellation of their first game Frankfort had only 5 prior contests before playing us. In those 5 games they had scored 238 points for an average of 47.6 points per game.

Our leading ball carrier was out due to concussion issues, so we needed to patch some things up to be able to compete effectively.

Jack Carter went to left wing and he did a great job for us. At one point, he broke loose for a 40 yard sweep and set up our first touchdown. Later, he caught a pass and was tackled at the one yard line. Two plays, later he scored on the one yard plunge for our second touchdown. We lost one of lineman and needed to switch jerseys on the sideline so full back, Skip Schorfhaar, could legally play at Guard for us and Chase Lepird went to full back.

We were also able to give some valuable playtime experience to sophomores Jack Vandermus, Kern Reeves, Dylan Schwark and Cam Kennard. All performed well, many recorded multiple tackles. It should be fun watching their growth next year on Varsity. Also on the positive side of the ledger was the con-tinued development of Jason Wixson and Jack Carter. Both recorded sacks and played very well from their defensive end positions. There are many good things to build on.

When the Frankfort coach, Matt Stapleton, and I talked after the game he made a point of emphasizing how hard the team played all night. Coach Stapleton knows football, his teams have made the playoffs 15 out of the 18 years he has coached. He is right; we should be proud of the effort that they gave Friday Night.

This Friday (October 17) the Rams go on the road to East Jordan. The Red Devils have not won this year. They are hun-gry for a win and they have been improving the last several weeks. We will need to stay focused and play hard in order to

Cross CountryHarbor Springs Cross Country at Mackinaw City Invitational Friday, Oct 10Coach Emily Kloss’s comments: “This is the first time Macki-naw City has hosted an invite; it was attended by eight schools. It was a flat course (something we haven’t gotten to race on yet) so we were excited. Of course we did get the wind and rain since we were up at the Straits. Boys ran well, about half getting personal best times for the year. Girls also about half running personal bests. The exciting thing for the girls was 1-5 gap of 50 seconds, our prior best was 1:39; and sweeping places 1-5. The teams are moving in the right direction with their hard work. Also the middle school did very well, again with our 1-2 punch for the boys with Jeremy & Brett, all teams did awesome. Middle School finishes their season this Saturday at the Northern Michigan Championship in Gaylord.”Boys: Harbor 27; Boyne 30Harbor Varsity Boys Results: 1. Marcus Garrow 17.01; 3.

Every one of them turned their games around shortly after the turn and didn’t look back. We look forward to contending for the State title as we have shot low enough several times now for that to be possible. Glen Lake hosted a great event and we are ready to move on and see what we can do. We are so grateful to Boyne Highlands, Harbor Point GC, Wequetonsing GC and Birchwood for letting us play and practice at such great facilities. This community support truly makes a difference.”

secure a victory. We look forward to the challenge and we are still hungry ourselves – I can feel it.

Defensively, Ethan Schwarz played his best game ever defending several balls and recording many tackles from his Free Safety position.

Pop Warner Football UpdateThe Village of Pellston was the destination for two of the three teams on Saturday, October 11, as the Hornets played host to our Orange Crush. Harbor 1 was in Fife Lake.

Harbor 2 hit the field first, and the pad popping Hornets took the game over at the start, as they closed the outside to our running backs and stopped the Orange. The Brown and Gold of Pellston struck first and went up 6-0 in the first quarter. The Rams answered late in the second quarter, when Grant Richardson continued put Harbor up 8-6. A Pellston stall and punt later, with super defensive play on the corner from Nate Foster, opened the door for David, “Magnet Hands ” Harrell. Catching everything but the flu, David scored with three seconds left in the half. Joshua Jordan and Kayden Forrester anchored the line while Dominic Oliver barked the signals to set things in motion. Final score was 16- 6 Harbor.

The Young Rams, Coached by Dan Warner and company, made waves the very next game and swept the series with Boyne 2. Teeth jarring defensive play of Trae MacGregor kept the ball in the hands of the offense, which saw a 55 yard scramble by Kaleb Warner to give the Black and Orange first score, 6-0 at the break. Then in the second half, Clay Novak on a quarter-back option went 35 yards, with help from a super O line effort, to put the young Rams in the lead 12-0 to finish the scoring. Patch Tippett and Connor Truman both added to the effort on both sides of the ball, while Connor Truman added some magic with the ball in hand to keep the Ramblers guessing.

Coach Truman, Beach, Wieman, Smith and Osterlund have created a monster of a team that’s peaking at the right time. It was a Benzie “Super Back” #24, on the first touch who ran the length of the field to put the Rams in a 0-6 hole. It was looking like a long day ahead when James Hungo de-cleated ol’ #24 as he tried to again split the Harbor D on the next series. The very next play, Andrew Truman and Rigel “ bulldog ” Snively crushed the confidence of the Huskies. Forcing fumbles at key times in the game, Noah Bosker played big as he pulled in a loose ball to keep the Orange in the game. Jeep Damoose sealed the win as he came from nowhere to stop a fourth down attempt by the Huskies late in the game. Cody Beach was a game changer in kicking the extra two points which was the difference in the score 14-12 Rams.

Harbor 1 and the Junior Rams will be at home on Saturday, October 18 for the jamboree game and the Harbor 2 squad will travel to Petoskey.

Along with some of our regular summer vendors, we will be look-ing to offer several special events, we’ll be letting you know about them here and on our Facebook page (Harbor Springs Farmers Market).

The Kiwanis Club of Petoskey will bring Tom Sterling to the Petoskey High School stage to present his travel film, “High-lands of Scotland” on Thurs-day, October 16th at 7 p.m. One month after the historic referendum in Scotland, in which 55 percent voted to stay with the United Kingdom and not become an independent country, Sterling will narrate and present his popular film.

Geographically small, about the size of Michigan’s lower peninsula, but monumental in its impact on many, this film is a fresh look at an old and much revered land. Ster-ling has taken the viewer on a grand tour of the highlands to see castles, Loch Ness, bag-

pipers, Iron Age Brochs, Edin-burgh, Inverness, a sheep dog contest, and wildlife seldom seen by the casual tourist.

Sterling is an award-winning travel adventure filmmaker. He has produced several tour films and specials for the Canadian Broadcast-ing Company, PBS and The Discovery Channel. His films have been seen in over 80 countries around the World. Since 1972 he has done over 12,000 live presentations. In 2009, Sterling was awarded the Hall of Fame award by the Travel Adventure Cinema Society.

This is the second of four shows for the 2014-2015 sea-son. The show takes place

at the P e t o s -key High S c h o o l a u d i -t o r i u m at 7pm. Ti c k e t s for the show are $8 at the d o o r . The other shows in the sea-son will include the Amazon November 20th, and France January 17th. The January show will be a 2pm matinee. For more information, please contact (231) 224-6404 and leave a voicemail message or email [email protected].

The JudgeI know that there is some bias on my part when I write about Robert Downey, Jr. and his movies because of my slight obsession with him, but trust me; this goes far beyond my obsession. This is an excellent movie and I think this may be the performance that brings Downey the Oscar that he should have had all those years ago for Chaplin. In fact, based on the movies that I’ve seen so far this year, he and co-star Robert Duvall may both be nominated. I know that I am in the minority, this movie is not a darling of the critics; perhaps you need to have had an adversarial relationship with your father for this to truly hit home.

Downey plays a big city lawyer who returns home for the death of his mother, forcing him to deal with his estranged family, especially his father. Yes, there are clichés, as he runs into his old girlfriend (and a small, creepy subplot about whether or not he is the father of her daughter.) The movie is long, about two hours and twenty minutes, but I really needed to visit the restroom early on and I had planned to go to the concession stand after the movie started, but I didn’t leave my seat; if you know me at all, that speaks volumes.

Duvall’s stubborn, sometimes mean and frequently ir-rational patriarch is not an easy man to like most of the time, but he brings such humanity into other scenes that he manages to win you over. The supporting cast is pretty impressive, too.

Vincent D’Onofrio, Billy Bob Thornton, Ken Howard, Jeremy Strong and in a small but very funny role, Dax Shepard, all give spot on performances. Watch for Leighton Meester in another minor role that gives some big laughs.

This is not the easiest movie to watch, especially if you have some experience of dealing with an elderly parent, but it is definitely worth it. There isn’t a lot of action, but there is both drama and humor (it is Downey, he can’t play things completely straight) and the nuances that all of the actors bring to their characters are worth seeing; it is the non-flashy moments that will stay with you.

Rated R for language and sexual situations, it’s too long and too complicated for most children to be interested.
