The 109th annual Emmet-Char-levoix County Fair will welcome new events and old favorites to the Petoskey Fairgrounds Aug. 16-24 – including country music star Joe Nichols, a new rodeo bringing thrills and the return of the always-popular Monster Truck Shootout.

This year is also a special one for Fair Manager Agnes Shaw, who is celebrating her 20th year at the helm of this family-friendly, action-packed week of fun.

“We always get pretty excited this time of year, when all the events are lined up and ticket sales are hopping and everything is getting ready to roll,” said Shaw. “Joe Nichols will be a big draw for us this year, and we’re so glad he could join our grandstand schedule this year. We’ll also be wel-coming rodeo action on Wednesday night, which is new for us and we’re excited to see the crowd ooh-and-aah along with the rodeo performers. We have a great Fair to present this year so come and join us!”

While the Fair officially kicks off on Aug. 16 with open class registrations for 4-H participants, the carnival and grandstand events begin on Tuesday, Aug. 19. The Skerbeck Carnival returns that day, opening at 2 p.m.

The rest of the week, the carnival opens at noon; kids’ days where children of all ages can ride for one price are Wednesday and Thursday. On Friday, all rides are $1 from Noon to 6 p.m.

On Tuesday the 19th, senior citi-zens and “handicapable” guests are admitted into the fairgrounds free of charge.

Also beginning Tuesday, the Com-munity Building is open daily for fairgoers to visit vendor booths and meander through the many exhibits showcasing the talents of locals in agricultural, creative, artistic and canning pursuits.

The Grandstand lineup is par-ticularly strong for this year’s Fair, Shaw noted. Tuesday night brings the annual show of might, the Open Horse Pulls, beginning at 6 p.m. On Wednesday night, catch the KP

Rodeo beginning at 7 p.m. Thursday evening brings country music star Joe Nichols to the stage starting at 7 p.m.; his recent song “Yeah” has remained in Billboard’s top 10 for several weeks. (His other top hits include “Gimme that Girl,” “Brokenheartsville,” and “Tequila makes her clothes fall off.”) Friday night brings back crowd-favorite Autocross racing, and Saturday’s main

109th annual Emmet-Charlevoix County Fair returns Aug. 16-24

City withdraws request to fill bottomlands on waterfront

The City of Harbor Springs has withdrawn its permit applications to potentially fill bottomlands along the waterfront (adjacent to the city’s municipal marina). If approved, the permit would have allowed the city’s redesign of the waterfront to include filing in an area to the east of the Harbor Master building to increase green/park space. That could have amounted to the equivalent of about the size of a football field.

On Monday, August 11, city man-ager Tom Richards sent a letter to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers rescinding the city’s request for a permit to fill Lake Michigan bot-tomlands.

In it, Richards said “the city was prepared to offer significant changes and modifications in response to concerns that had been raised by concerned residents and organiza-tions, but the city cannot justify the unrealistic level of expense and ef-fort that is now anticipated in order to win regulatory approval of these permits.”

In a telephone interview Tuesday, Aug. 12, Richards said the reaction the city was getting to the permit request, especially from the MDEQ and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, made it plain that they “were going to throw every possible test and hur-dle that they could at this project.”

Richards said the process could have ended up dragging on for years and costing the city even more money. There could have even been a requirement that the city acquire another piece of property of equiva-lent size and dig it out to replace the bottomlands that would have been filled. And that could also require a whole permitting process.

“Until you ask the question, you have not idea what they will require you to do,” Richards said.

The city manager estimated this process will end up having cost some $15,000. That money came out of the Waterfront Fund, which is revenue generated from the city marina, among others, and not general taxpayer funds.

Richards noted the city will con-tinue to pursue improvements to the waterfront park without any expan-sion of the existing public property.

As a result of the city’s withdrawal of its permit request, a public hear-ing called by the Michigan Depart-ment of Environmental Quality and set for Aug. 20 is now unnecessary.

Process likely would have been drawn out; city will end up having spent $15,000

Mary Kay Farley’s legacy of providing scholarships for students in Harbor Springs will continue long into the future, although future recipients will miss one of the greatest gifts of the Farley Scholars Program: the connection with Mary Kay her-self. Farley passed away this sum-mer following a lengthy illness, but her spirit-- and dedication to young gradu-ates in Harbor Springs-- contin-ues to shine.

“The Mary Kay Farley Scholars program was started 25 years ago, and has included 46 graduates of Harbor Springs High School. Par-ticipants in the program have gone on to pursue careers in such diverse fields as health care, accounting, teaching, architecture and the law,” Farley’s daughter, Kathyrn Farley, said in a recent e-mail interview. Farley will help continue her moth-er’s legacy of giving.

“The desire to begin the program came from Mom’s first hand knowl-edge about graduates of Harbor Springs High School having trouble meeting the financial needs of col-lege,” she noted. “Mom would ask

August has, so far, been a month of beauty. While the days may be growing shorter, there is still plenty of time to set off and explore the quiet roads, fields, forests and waterways of northern Michigan. (Harbor Light photo by Mark Flemming).

Harbor student battles rare heart conditionBy Mark FlemmingHarbor Light Newspaper

Growing up in Northern Michigan allows kids the opportunity to choose from a variety of hobbies. For 14-year old Chase Fairbairn sports always topped his passions of choice, until an incident on the soccer field three years ago. Fair-bairn collapsed mid-game and had to be resuscitated by his father Paul Fairbairn.

“He had a first episode on the soc-cer field and Paul was there which was amazing,” said Chase’s mother, Lisa Fairbairn. ”He did CPR and brought him back and then he had three full days of cardiac work up and they said it was dehydration. But then when it happened two months later we ended up at the University of Michigan. It was amazing Paul was at both.”

Looking west down Beach Drive in Wequetonsing with a ferry waiting at the landing

Over 100 community-minded citizens gathered recently at the Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Founda-tion’s annual meeting hosted at the Perry Hotel. Charlie Gano, outgoing Board of Trustees president, took the opportunity to look back on the past five years that he served as president noting that “the changes and ac-complishments are substan-tial: In the last five years the Community Foundation’s assets have grown from $18 million to now over $35 million; grants have risen from $700,000 to now over $1.3 million; the Commu-nity Foundation operates in multiple program areas; 80% of the dollars granted stay lo-cal; and it all gets done for an expense of only 1.2% of the asset value.”

“There is a reason people trust us to help with their phi-lanthropy” stated Gano, who then continued by thanking the Community Foundation staff, Board of Trustees and the numerous volunteers that serve on important decision-making committees. “It has been my honor and privilege to serve as president of such an amazing community en-tity,” concluded Gano.

Trustee Jennifer Deegan presented the slate of trustees up for election. Re-elected to three-year terms were Michael D. Eberhart, James W. Ford, Ann K. Irish, Jill N. O’Neill and B. Thomas Smith. Lisa G. Blanchard was re-elected to a one-year term and Logan A. Bickel was elected to serve as the youth member on the board.

Vice President Lisa Blanchard recognized the outstanding contribution of the graduating youth mem-ber, Kelsey L. Nuorala, who served as an officer on the Youth Advisory Committee (YAC) and also served one year on the board of trustees.

Board Treasurer, Todd Win-nell gave the financial report for their fiscal year ending March 31, 2014, reporting that the Community Founda-tion had an outstanding year with total assets of the Com-munity Foundation exceed-ing $34 million, finishing at $34,375,157. The Community

Foundation annual meeting celebrates 20 years of Youth Advisory CommitteeFoundation received $902,563 in contributions and granted $1,305,211. Kevin Christman, of Rasmussen, Teller, O’Neil, and Christman, P.C., shared a clean opinion on the recent audit of financial position.

Program Officer, Sara Ward kicked off the celebration for the 20th anniversary of the Youth Advisory Committee (YAC) by introducing Em-erson Meyer. Meyer served on the YAC from 1996-1998 and his story is highlighted in the Community Founda-tion’s annual report this year. In keeping with the report’s theme, Together we can do more, Meyer shared this year’s goal of raising an additional $250,000 for the YAC grant-making fund, the Fund for Youth, and challenged his fel-low YAC alumni to raise 10% of that goal or $25,000, with Meyer personally contribut-ing the first $2,500. “It’s about paying it forward,” stated Meyer. “My time on the YAC was invaluable in many ways. The lessons I learned about fi-duciary responsibility guided me both in college and in the ten years I worked on Wall Street.” Meyer then asked the various alumni and current YAC members in attendance to share their personal reflec-

tions on what serving on the YAC has meant to them.

David Jones, the Commu-nity Foundation’s executive director, reflected on the fact that over 130 young men and women have gone through the Youth Advisory Committee as teenagers and collectively granted over $1 million to their community in the past 20 years. “As we have highlighted here” com-mented Jones, “now they are literally around the world and right here in this community continuing to serve and give back.”

Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Founda-tion’s mission is to improve the quality of life for all people in Emmet County by connecting donors with community needs; building a permanent source of chari-table funds to serve our area; addressing a broad range of community issues through innovative grantmaking; and promoting philanthropy and active citizenship.

The annual report may be viewed online at www.phsacf.org.

On Tuesday, August 19 Crooked Tree Arts Center will be hosting the last of its Harbor Springs Summer Friends Lectures with Kulapat Yantrasast.

Kulapat Yantrasast, a native

of Thailand, is the co-founder and principal of wHY Archi-tecture. Founded in 2003 with fellow architect Yo-ichiro Ha-komori, Yantrasast launched wHY Architecture in Los An-geles and opened a New York

location in 2012. News-week maga-zine’s recent article on architecture noted wHY A r c h i t e c -ture as one of the most innovative architectur-al practices of the new generation. Their philosophy of integra-tion of creative thinking with timeless design, along with their focus on intelligent and high-quality construction, have gained them a reputa-tion for their architectural works and projects for the arts and culture all over the United States.

In 2007 wHY Architecture completed the Grand Rapids Art Museum, which became the first new art museum in the world to receive the LEED certification for environmen-tal design. Current projects include the expansion and renovation of the Speed Art Museum in Louisville, Ken-tucky, the oldest and largest museum in the state, a series of gallery design and col-

lection installations at the Art Institute of Chicago, the Harvard Art Museums, the Art Bridge at the Great Wall of Los Angeles, and the new Tyler Museum of Art in Texas, as well as many residential and commercial projects. Other recent art and cultural proj-ects include the new Pomona College Studio Art Hall facil-ity in Claremont, California. Kulapat and his team have also recently completed proj-ects for contemporary New York art galleries. It has been said that their new galleries receive just as many visitors for the building’s architecture as they do for the artworks contained within.

Prior to wHY Architecture, Kulapat worked as a close as-sociate with Tadao Ando and served as a project architect on many projects during 1996 – 2003, which includes the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth in Texas, the ARMANI / TEATRO in Milan, the proj-ects for the Calder Museum in Philadelphia, the Foundation Francois Pinault in Paris, and the project for the Sterling and Francine Clark Institute in Williamstown, Massachu-setts, that he continues to work on with Tadao Ando.

Kulapat graduated with a degree in Architecture from Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok, Thailand, and received his Masters and Ph.D. in Architecture from the University of Tokyo un-der a scholarship from the Japanese government. He lectures regularly in the US

In Memory of Joseph “Joe” SwadlingThe entire Harbor Springs community is incredibly saddened to hear of Joe’s untimely passing away. Joe will be greatly missed and fondly remembered as a great friend to all of us. Joe was known to many as the most friendly, nicest and best bartender at the New York Restaurant for many years. He made everyone feel welcome with his smile and laugh.

A local television station asked, as their daily topic question, to have people recall their favorite summer memory. I have no idea how you would do that, that would be like a mother picking one of her children as her favorite (which my mother did with me, but who could blame her?) That was a joke, by the way, before I am beaten by my siblings.

I have different precious memories from every phase of life, doesn’t everyone? As a child, remember the first time you carefully plucked a milkweed leaf with a striped caterpillar on the underside and place it into a jar (with air holes, of course.) Soon you could watch the devel-opments as he cocooned until one day you woke up to beautiful Monarch butterfly? What a feeling of amaze-ment! Or the first time you stumbled across a nest with those beautiful blue Robin’s eggs. You didn’t touch for fear the mother would des-ert the nest; I know that has officially been debunked, but I would still never touch in case the men in the lab coats are wrong. After a little

while, you would see the eggs crack and then those ugly yet beautiful little birds emerged. Remember catching a jar full of lightening bugs and your amazement at their beauty? Or one of my favorite things, walking across a field and stumbling on a patch of those teeny little wild strawberries; the big ones will never match them for sweetness.

As I got a little older, my summers revolved around the fair. Remember there were not rides at other events at that point and there was no Michigan Adventure, at least not in its present form. If you were a fan of carnival rides, the fair was the only option. I would start pick-ing blackberries as soon as I could to begin raising money; you could never take enough for all those games of chance and disgusting food options. Once you got a little older, the focus of the fair changed. How many of you remember your first Ferris wheel ride with a “date?” Holding hand, maybe a kiss when you were sitting at the top? Romance at

its highest level, or at least that was how it seemed at the time.

Many of my favorite sum-mer memories are from the summer I graduated from high school. A perfect eve-ning could be as simple as driving around in my Mus-tang convertible, listening to the Caption and Tennille, Wings and the Eagles on my eight track player. (I know, I’m dating myself horribly with that statement.) Camp-ing meant a fire at Sturgeon Bay and throwing a sleeping bag on the beach, not allowed now, of course. And fireflies took on a whole new purpose, as they were such a great excuse to search out a dark, quiet place.

Parties at Five Mile Creek, Catob Road or the dump (sorry, not very classy, but true) concerts at the Castle, and seeing everyone that you knew at Bar Harbor for last call; they were just normal nights then, now they are moments we smile back on fondly.

Years later, summer road trips became the norm, often

for the weddings or gradu-ations of friends or to see a concert (post Castle Farms and pre casinos.) Every trip with every friend has its own special part of my heart; Florida with Marcia Williams and Sue Bartlett Lechowicz, a Rolling Stones concert or wedding reception with Karen White Pennington, a Bob Seger concert that means the world to me now because I was with Mary Murchie Ivey, or something as simple as a trip to Flint with all the “boys” for Fred Waybrant’s birthday party, all times I wouldn’t have missed for anything.

More recently, I have won-derfully happy memories of traveling with my husband and my dogs during the sum-mer. Just watching the dogs running on the beach at Stur-geon (another thing no longer allowed) or letting them hike with us in Canada or stroll on the fields of Gettysburg; it was always special. Less hectic, less frantic than years gone by, but if any memory makes you smile, that’s more than enough to ask and what makes you smile certainly changes with the times.

Over 2300 people attended The Women’s Club Art Fair, held last month At Nub’s Nob in Har-bor Springs. “This is the highest attendance we’ve ever had in the history of The Women’s Club,” reported Arlene Aitchison, chair of the northern Michigan organization’s annual art fair. “Proceeds will support several local scholarships and dozens of northern Michigan charities.”

First time presenters at The Art Fair Dick and Vicki Miller of Richard’s Kitchenware of Rogers City, said, “This was a great art show. The qual-ity and variety of the artwork was impressive. We look forward to participating next year.”

The Women’s Club thanks the several spon-sors whose support greatly contributed to the

huge success of this year’s fair. These include Crooked Tree Breadworks, D&W Fresh Market, Toski Sands, Oleson’s Food Stores, Johan’s Pas-try Shop, WalMart, Harbor Springs IGA, Meijer and the Bay Harbor Foundation.

The directors of The Women’s Club will review community groups’ applications for grants submitted by September 15, 2014. Groups must resubmit yearly to be considered for a grant and receipt of past grants cannot guarantee support this year. Grant requests may be mailed to The Women’s Club, PO Box 443, Harbor Springs, MI 49740, attn: Board of Directors.

Week’s Low: Saturday, Aug. 9, 55FWeek’s High, Sunday, Aug.10, 84F

We enjoyed another week of great summer weather with tempera-tures hitting the low to mid-80s on several occasions. lots of sun every day, gentle breezes and comfortable swimming conditions! The Petoskey State Park was packed with folks re-ally enjoying the chance to sun and swim without needing to bundle up. The mid-summer produce at the area farmers markets hitting the stands with all those delicious fruits and veges, along with flow-ers, eggs, fish, meats, and so much more!!! The beginning of this week gave us some much needed rain - it remains quite dry with predictions for the upcoming weekend sunny and cooler. Enjoy!

Class Reunion Set for August 20Harbor Springs High School Classes 1940 - 1949 will hold their reunion on Wednesday, August 20 at Kiwanis Park beginning at 11:30. It will be a potluck and those attending are asked to bring a dish to pass. See you there!

“Breakfast in the Park’A reminder that the Harbor Springs Masonic Lodge will be holding its third “Breakfast in the Park” fundraiser on Sunday, August 17. They are bringing back a tradition from the 1960s and 1970s and invite those who remember eating breakfast in the out-of-doors, and those who want a great, fun experience eating at the Tourist Park to come and support the Lodge in its endeavors to continue to raise funds for youth, charities and other community events in our area. The Tourist Park is located at the top of Ottawa Stadium, top of East Hill, across from Bay Bluffs. The price of breakfast is an $8 donation for adults, $4 donation for a child age 6 years through 12, and free for children five years and under. There are no tickets to buy, so come out and enjoy breakfast - and lots of fun!!

It’s hard to believe there are only three more Wednesdays until Labor Day and then the Harbor Springs Farmers Market goes back to Saturdays only! We’re finally seeing tomatoes at market and these warm, sunny days we’ve been having will bring even more. They’re juicy, red and tasty...just like tomatoes are sup-posed to be! Anyone else thinking BLTs? Dick Gregory will be ready to sell you some of the best bacon you’ve ever tasted and lettuce can be found at the tents of Two Acre Farm, Pond Hill, Wild Youth Farm and Peri’s Herbs. And of course, you can’t make a sandwich without bread ~ look for it at My Sister’s Bakeshop and Yaya’s Bakery. If you are already planning your Labor Day picnic, why not consider turkey? Not only healthy but delicious, you can talk to Sue at Duerksen’s to get the perfect grilling cut (or do the crowd feeding option of BBQ pulled turkey, easy to prepare so you can re-

lax with your guests). Sunflowers are in full bloom and they bring the sunshine right into any room, check out our newest vendor this Wednesday, The Sunflower Stand. Donalee has more sunflower varieties than you can imagine. Our new reusable market totes are ready to go and you can be part of our “Say No to Plastic” campaign by picking one up. Watch for information and more alternatives to the plastic shopping bag at market. And remember, the music continues at every market this summer. On Wednesday we will be hosting Charlie Millard and on Saturday, Brian Livingston. The Sprouts will be making their own reusable market bags and Nirvana Spa will be back doing “dollar a minute” mas-sages. Relax while you shop, 9 a.m.-1-p.m.!

Meet me at the market,Cyndi Kramer, Market Master

After nearly two years of plan-ning, research and testing, AARP has introduced a new and improved course–the AARP Smart Driver Course–which will be offered in Oc-tober at the Petoskey Friend-ship Center, 1322 Anderson Rd. A refresher course (for those who have completed the course in the past) will be offered on Thursday, October 2 from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The full course will be offered from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, October 16.

The AARP Smart Driver™ Course is the nation’s first and largest refresher course for drivers age 50 and older. It has given millions of drivers the skills and tools they need to drive safely on today’s roads, allowing them to remain independent for many years to come. In fact, 97% of those who take it change at least one driving behavior. There are no

tests to pass - just useful in-formation to keep you safe on the road. More than 500,000 older drivers complete the course each year. Most course participants receive a multi-year insurance discount for completing the course (check

with your insurer for details). The cost for the course is

$15.00 for AARP members, and $20.00 for non-members. The course fee is payable on the day of the class. Reserva-tions are required, and can be made by calling the Council

on Aging at (231) 347-3211 or (888) 347-0369.

Very sincere condolences to the families of Joseph Swadling and John Hold-orph. Their passings were as different as they could be. Mr. Holdorph had been unwell for quite some time and he was cared for so faith-fully by his son, Rick.

Harbor Springs...Now and Then

Throughout Northwest Mich-igan, individuals, volunteers and organizations are pro-tecting and preserving this region’s rich history in ways not often recognized by the public. But without these caretakers of our past, many stories that have defined this area of Michigan would be lost to the passage of time and memory.

To recognize these extraor-dinary efforts in protecting, preserving and sharing our history, the Essence of Em-met – a local collaborative of organizations and individuals sharing an interest in our his-tory – has announced it will begin an awards program.

To be eligible for the awards, the recipient(s) must be in-dividuals and organizations dedicated to the preservation, presentation and promotion of the history and culture of Emmet County. (Individu-als serving on the Essence of Emmet group are not eligible.) Work or programs must have taken place in the last 18 months within Emmet County, though the nominat-ed party does not need to be a resident of Emmet County.

“The Essence of Emmet group has been discovering a really vast network of people, organizations and groups in our communities who are doing fascinating, important work preserving the stories from the past,” said Phil Por-ter, Director of Mackinac State Historic Parks and an Essence of Emmet member. “We felt this would be a terrific way to support and encourage these efforts and shine a light on the people doing this really great work.”

The public is invited and encouraged to nominate in-dividuals and organizations

for these awards, which have several categories: Lifetime achievement award; distin-guished volunteer award; distinguished professional award; Publications (articles, books, newsletters and print media, websites); restoration and preservation projects; special programs; and exhib-its. No more than one award per category will be awarded each year.

Nominations will be re-viewed by the Essence of Emmet Awards Committee. Winners will be announced during the annual fall twice-yearly program hosted by the Essence of Emmet group. Nominations are due by Sept. 1.

To nominate, please com-plete and submit the nomina-tion form that can be found online, at www.emmetcounty.org/historical/ If you have questions about the awards or the process, please contact Phil Porter at (231) 436-4100.

The Essence of Emmet group works to promote this region’s rich history. Members of the Essence of Emmet include the Emmet County Historical Commission, Great Lakes Lighthouse Keepers Association, Harbor Springs Area Historical Society, Head-lands International Dark Sky Park, Inland Water Route His-torical Society, Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians, Little Traverse Historical Soci-ety, Mackinac State Historic Parks, Mackinaw Area His-torical Society and Pellston Historical Society. For in-formation about the group, contact Beth Anne Eckerle, Emmet County Director of Communications, at (231) 348-1704 or [email protected]

a parent of a graduate how they were doing in school, and she would learn that financial challenges prevented their son or daughter from return-ing to college the next year.

Mom was heartbroken and wanted to help.”

Farley’s desire to help came from the truest of intentions; she remained in contact with her scholarship recipients, providing much more than

financial support. Her gifts were proof of a deep belief in the power of education, and most importantly, the impor-tance of community.

“Over the years, Mom ex-perienced a number of high-

lights and proud moments from the program’s existence. There are too many to count. I have been beside her when the father of a recipient has approached her on the street, and she has beamed

with pride at hearing of his daughter’s career success,” Mary Kay’s daughter recalled.

“Every single penny Mom devoted to the fund was given to the scholars themselves, with the understanding that the money could be used to secure housing, purchase books, buy supplies, take care of lab fees, etc. The funds could be put to use by partici-pants to meet all the financial obligations of college.”

Each year, the Harbor Springs High School coun-selor and three community members-- Ann Irish, John Baker, and Ann Wilson-- gather to discuss students with financial needs who met the academic requirements.

“The most amazing and honorable aspect of the Farley Scholars Fund is that Mom would support a recipient from undergraduate studies through graduate school--she was there to help at each step of the educational process.

Many times, students would take a break in their studies and Mom would resume with funding when they decided to return. In this manner she provided the necessary sup-port to promote the education training needed to establish careers, instead of simply the obtaining of undergraduate degrees. Mom was in it for the long haul,” she said, adding Mary Kay always hoped, in the near future, a Farley Scholar would become a medical doctor (like her sister, Fran) or college professor, like herself.

“Either of these feats would be especially meaningful to her,” Farley said, adding, “all in all, creating and main-taining the Mary Kay Farley Scholarship Fund changed Mom’s life, helped to educate a deserving and dedicated group of students. It allowed my mother to feel permanent-ly connected to the Harbor Springs community.”


Scholarship will continue founder’s dedication to Harbor students


Harbor Springs has a new varsity volleyball coach this year. Dave Thom ran the junior varsity program last year and this year takes the helm as head coach. We caught up with Coach Dave at one of his conditioning camp “two-a-days “last week where his athletes were running stairs, doing pushups and situps and all manner of physical condition-ing at Ottawa Stadium. Coach Dave is also a personal trainer at Bay Tennis and Fitness, and speaking from personal experience, he knows how to push you to your limits. Coach Dave took the time to answer some questions and introduce himself to the community.

-Charles O’Neill

What is your volleyball background? I started playing volleyball when I was 13, in eighth grade, when all the other eighth grade boys were figuring out what sports they wanted play in high school. I chose volleyball because I was able to jump. After starting to play I quickly fell in love with the game. By the time I was a junior I was actually running our freshmen team prac-tices. As a senior, I was voted to All-State Defensive Specialist. I stayed around the program coaching underneath my varsity coach and also continued playing in ama-teur tournaments and lots of pickup games. I moved in 2008 to northern Michigan where

Go! TimeVolleyball team kicks up conditioning during two week camp

SportS

-CONTINUED on next page.

As long as we can move faster and stay fresh longer than the other team, we will always have a chance of winning games.

-Coach Dave Thom


I developed the volleyball program at North Central Michigan College and coached AAU volleyball. Last season, I landed the JV coaching position at Harbor Springs and I look forward now to taking on the role as varsity coach.

What is it about the game that you enjoy? I enjoy the game for the fact you don’t have to be the strongest or quickest out on the court. As you play you learn a lot of neat little tricks to play smarter vs. harder. It is also a game you can play as you continue to age. It is the absolute team sport. Even the players sitting on the bench have an effect on the game and how it’s played. So, I tell my players, always be positive.

3) What kind of athletes play volleyball? In volleyball you don’t just need a tall player or a quick player or anything like that. You need six individual athletes that have one or more of those qualities. So as a coach you try to pair them together based on that. However, you also look for the biggest volleyball fac-tor, and that’s attitude. If you have a team that is always amped and excited about playing, even if the squad isn’t overly strong, they will win games. If they have a bad at-titude, it will affect the whole team. Keeping a positive outlook and smile is critical in volleyball.

4) What are you working on in conditioning camp? What strengths do the athletes need to develop to excel in the sport?In our conditioning program, we are first and foremost working on injury prevention and secondly working on speed, power and endurance. The players need to develop endurance and quickness. As long as we can move faster and stay fresh longer than the other team, we will always have a chance of winning games.

5) As this is your first year as the Rams head coach, what are your goals for the team and the program?My goals and vision are at the top. I have a saying that I heard from my old baseball pitching coach Vern Ruhle, who was the pitching coach for the Cincinnati Reds,”Go Big or Go Home.” So my dream and our goal is to make it to the big show. But I have small attainable goals to help lead up to the big show. Things like starting from the bottom working to the top. What I mean by this is starting at my lower grade levels and really focusing on teaching fundamental volleyball. Also teaching them at a young age to work hard to achieve their goals. This group of athletes I have right now are going to be a very strong hardworking group, and let me tell you they want it!

6) What should fans look for when they watch a volley-ball match? What kind of strategies are going on?It’s simple, watch for the director on the court. That’s the player running the flow of the team, telling them what plays to run and when to run them. Most of the time it’s the setter who is in charge and as long as you follow her actions you won’t miss any of the big plays happening. In volleyball some teams run special plays to throw the other teams off. Other teams try to be more consistent, forcing the other team to make the mis-takes. Myself I am a hybrid. I like to focus on running regular plays, but sometimes lighting up the other team with fancy footwork, just to throw them off balance.

7) What are the team needs going forward in terms of equipment, uniforms, etc? How can someone contribute?To really build this program I will have to get the girls into more team camps during the summers and also into some bigger tournaments. We also need some new volleyball-specific training equipment to help the girls develop more advanced hitting and blocking techniques. Also being able to purchase some new uniforms for the girls would be a huge help to start the program off on a new bright future. If someone wanted to contribute they could help out during games keeping score. Or if they wanted to make a donation to the program they can simply contact me via e-mail or through the Harbor Springs School.

“He happened to have a holter monitor on the second time and that is what helped diagnose his disease,” said Paul. “As soon as Chase went down, I started pushing the monitor and it took record-ings of the event.”

“One of the doctors told us that you have a 2.5-percent chance of survival for one of these events and he survived two of them,” Lisa said.

“He’s been through a lot. When we ended up at U of M he got a pacemaker, a defibril-lator, heart failure meds,” she explained.

Chase was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy, a heart muscle disease in which the heart muscles fail and turn to scar tissue or fatty tissue. He was told he could never play competitive sports again.

“Playing sports was his life, so this has been terrible dis-ability for him. Now, he has started to focus more on boat racing and hunting,” Lisa said.

Chase’s care was passed on to Dr. Michael J. Ackerman, M.D., Ph.D., at Mayo Clinic’s Windland Smith Rice Sudden Death Genomics Laboratory in Rochester, MN. With pro-gressive research and a col-laborative effort with doctors around the world, Dr. Acker-man is working to find a cause and a cure for this disease.

“His doctor is doing amaz-ing research,” Lisa noted.

Several weekends ago, Dr. Ackerman was in Harbor Springs for a night of stra-tegic themes in medicine demonstrations. The event, at Birchwood Farms, was hosted by the Fabiano’s.

“The Fabiano’s sponsored an event and Chase’s doctor

was one of the doctors that came.” Lisa said. “He brought his son, who just like Chase, loves the outdoors. They played and went fishing and whatnot for three days.”

“The night was about stra-tegic themes at Mayo clinic, so when they got to the re-generative medicine part the doctor talked about what they’re doing in terms of stem cell research. A year ago, they had taken a section of Chase’s skin and put it in a dish...and turned it into a four chamber beating heart.”

“Our hope was that re-generative medicine could provide an answer for Chase. However, we just learned a couple of weeks ago that the disease is progressing at a much more rapid rate. He will have to have a transplant.”

Although regenerative medicine has not advanced enough to provide the help Chase currently needs, the Fairbairns decided to find a way to help Dr. Ackerman in his search.

“Last Sunday, Paul said ‘let’s

try and raise some money for this research at Mayo,’” Lisa said. “We built a Facebook page and there is a direct link to Mayo, where you can donate to the cause.”

Fairbairns stressed the fundraiser isn’t for Chase, so much as for everyone who struggles with his disease. Chase doesn’t like attention-- but he does love his doctor, they said, and fully supports the idea of helping raise in support of that work.

“The whole thing about this is raising the money for the research,” Paul added. “They are not that far away from making this work. He doesn’t think he will be able to make a heart, but they are not that far out with making an artificial heart, and if they make that artificial heart they won’t need to grow one because there won’t be that rejection rate.”

In terms of Chase’s personal journey, Paul said the doc-tor believes he will need a transplant in the near future. However, the hope is by the time Chase would possibly

pretty good at self-regulating. He knows his limits.”

The hope is that after Chase starts the race, his dad will be able to catch up with him about 15 minutes later and be able to race alongside him the rest of the race.

“He might not be able to do it. We don’t want to put pres-sure on him, and it might be too big,” Lisa said. “Boat rac-ing is just something Chase is really passionate about and he wants to live life to the fullest.”

need a secondary transplant, artificial hearts will be a work-ing possibility.

“We were really hoping they had the stem cell research fig-ured out, but they are about a year to five years away from that happening,” Lisa said. “The care we have gotten at Mayo is amazing. They are so dedicated, so compassionate, so smart, the research alone that they do is amazing. There is this willingness to collabo-rate with other doctors and colleagues all over the world. Some places we’ve been they are surprised if we’d like a sec-ond opinion, but the team at Mayo is getting second, third, fourth opinions without us even asking us.”

Although Chase no longer spends his days on the soc-cer field, his passions for boat racing and hunting still continue. This weekend-- August 16-17-- Chase may possibly compete in the Top O’ Michigan Outboard Mara-thon Nationals boat race; it is a tradition that goes far back in Chase’s family.

“He doesn’t really do a racing circuit or anything, but this is one he grew up watching his dad and uncles participate in, and one he knows his grandpa raced. This is the race he wants to do,” Lisa said.

“The first couple of years, he did the J-Class which goes up the Indian River and back. The issue, however, is that his heart has declined quite a bit. We were at Mayo two weeks ago and the doctor did say he could race, but it is kind of like a calculated risk. This is something he so looks for-ward to though, and Chase is

The Hundred-Foot JourneyIf I begin by saying that this is a delightful movie, I’m sure I’ll lose many of you, convinced immediately that it is a “chick flick”. That’s not the case; it is an adult person flick. There is not a lot of action, it is almost completely character driven, but in such wonderful fashion. And if that doesn’t do it for you, the scenery of the French countryside and the pictures of all that amazing food might; I swear I could smell and taste it, just from the great cinematography. On the way out, I said that it reminded me of Chocolat, in pacing and style. I didn’t realize until doing some research later that it was the same director.

There are not a lot of recognizable faces in this film. In fact, my list began and ended with Helen Mirren, but that was enough to make me want to see it. As wonderful as she is, it was the unknown actors that made the movie special.

This is the story of the Kadam family. Forced out of their native India by political upheaval, they decide to make a new start in Europe, eventually settling in France. They de-cide to reinvent the family restaurant that they left behind, only to find opposition from the only restaurant in town, which is located directly across the street, approximately one hundred feet away.

Son Hassan (Manish Dayal) has a gift for combining spices and a drive to be the best chef around. He is capable of producing amazing Indian food, now he decides to tackle traditional French cooking and find if the two can meet. He is attracted to Marguerite (Charlotte LeBon,) the beautiful sous chef of the French restaurant, but obviously that will have problems since they are in direct competition. Has-san’s indomitable father (Om Puri) meets an immovable force in Madame Mallory (Helen Mirren,) the single minded and driven manager of Le Saule Pleureur and though the result is quite predictable, the journey is wonderfully fun. The performances are all wonderful, nothing over the top, very subtle humor, everything you could ask for from the actors. Mirren is, as always, amazing, but her counterparts are all excellent, too.

Rated PG, there is very little profanity, no sex or nudity, but there are a couple scenes that could be frightening and the storyline is definitely going to bore children. If I have any complaints at all, it would be that the same movie could have been told in ten to twenty less minutes. Other than that, it all worked for me.

Breakfast in the Park

The Harbor Springs Masonic Lodge, is going to hold its third “Breakfast in the Park” fundraiser this year on Sunday, August 17. It takes place int the Tourist Park, located at the top of Ottawa Stadium at the top of the East Hill. The Lodge is attempting to bring back a tradition from the 1960s and 1970s.

On the BookshelfUgly Ducklings

By Katie CapaldiI was shelving books the other day and my sights hap-

pened upon a lone copy of The Last Gentleman, by Walker Percy. It was nestled alongside another of his novels, The Moviegoer, which admittedly has a more striking jacket design. Nevertheless, it gave me actual heartache to notice these titles - not because I don’t love them, but because I do. And very tremendously so, at that.

The store has undergone a number of changes in the past year and a half, and whether our customers have noticed or not, one of the largest and most exciting changes has been that to the inventory itself. I chose to give Walker Percy a place on the shelf, because he is so deserving of one. I have, however, done him a disservice in the meantime. I haven’t hand sold him. I think there are writers of such breadth of talent, that I mistakenly assume that the pitiful few of their titles, to which I can afford shelf space, will leap into the hands of readers. This hasn’t happened, and it makes me sad. And I blame myself.

These are writers whose books I will never return to the publisher, because they are important and necessary stories, and I am convinced that they have not yet been read by every discerning reader in the vicinity. Granted, they may not appeal to every reader, but I firmly believe that some of you just need a reminder that they are here.

Walker PercyHaving passed away as recently as 1990, Percy seems to be that bookseller nightmare. He falls in a murky area between “classic” and “con-temporary.” We keep him in on the contempo-rary side of things here, but I often wonder . . . Like so many of his Southern, literary peers, Percy’s work often has an overarching theme of faith and questioning man’s place in the modern world. He manages to balance art, science and religion intelligently and without blame tossed at his upbringing. We can also credit Percy for his role in helping John Kennedy Toole’s Confederacy of Dunces reach publication.Recommended to get you started: The Moviegoer and The Last Gentleman (which sold from the shelf as I was writing this!)

Leslie Marmon SilkoGrounded for years in the landscape, heritage and history of the Laguna Pueblo (of which the author is one-quarter), Silko’s stories recall the human condition, but not always or overtly that of the Native American. She tends to place a greater focus of that particular brand of sto-rytelling, which traditionally was conducted orally throughout civilization. She adroitly manages to capture the same importance of passing from the old to the new, but in a written context. Recommended to get you started: Ceremony and The Turquoise Ledge: A Memoir

Mikhail BulgakovI will say, that of all the writers listed here, Bul-gakov sells the very best. He is also the writer I stay most consciously aware of handselling. I don’t want to give him too much heaping praise, but he may just be my favorite Rus-sian author, as well. His career is not atypical. He was trained as a physician, fought and was injured in The Great War. He suffered and overcame a debilitating morphine addiction. His early works were banned by Joseph Stalin. Where my great appreciation for Bulgakov lies, however, is in his embrace of the absurd and the farcical, which craft a thinly-veiled portrait of the paranoia, greed and corruption of Soviet Russia.Recommended to get you started: The Master and Mar-garita and A Country Doctor’s Notebook

Jo WaltonHaving garnered all of the major accolades for science fiction and fantasy writers, one would expect Jo Walton to be widely read. Combine that with the fact that her settings are often lovingly-crafted renderings of her native Wales or nearby Ireland, and that she finely walks the line between fantasy and straight-up literature, and one would assume her readership would be immense. Granted, in some places, I think it is. And I have had some visitors come by and proclaim their love for her when they see her work on the shelf. I just know she has a mass of fans yet undiscovered.Recommended to get you started: Among Others and the Small Change trilogy

James BaldwinEven the man’s eyes should stop you dead in your tracks were you to pass by his books. If they do not contain every sadness and tenderness and thoughtfulness in the world, I don’t know what does. Having donned many hats throughout his career - American writer, exiled American writer, African American writer, gay writer, outraged writer - Baldwin managed to avoid all preachiness or ranting. Instead, his work is largely autobiographical and wholly beautiful.Recommended to get your started: Go Tell It on the Mountain and Notes of a Native Son
