BlackHawk

Longtime country recording act coming to County Fair

Even casual fans of country music know songs like “Goodbye Says It All” and “Every Once in a While,” and the group which made those songs famous— BlackHawk—will be performing Sunday, Sept. 2 at the Calumet County Fair. For more than 20 years, BlackHawk has shared a unique sense of harmony with their voices, their songs and their fans. It is a harmony that has sold over 7 million albums, scored some of the most distinctive country radio hits of the ‘90s, and still draws tens of thousands of fans to their electrifying live performances. Today BlackHawk continues to honor its past as it forges its future, and does it all with a commitment that takes their music—and the harmony—to a whole new level. “When we started,” said BlackHawk co-founder and lead vocalist Henry Paul, “our individual careers as writers and performers gave us somewhat of a more creative sensibility. We were three guys whose goal was to approach country with smart songs and unique harmonies for people who may not automatically like country.” Impressive roots

Paul had previously co-founded Southern Rock legends The Outlaws, as well as leading the popular ‘80s rockers The Henry Paul Band. Van Stephenson had mainstream pop success as an ‘80s singer-songwriter-guitarist (“Modern Day Delilah”). And Dave Robbins had written hits for Eric Clapton and Kenny Rogers while partnering with Stephenson to write a series of classic numberone hits for Restless Heart, including “The Bluest Eyes In Texas” and “Big Dreams In A Small Town.” “Even though the three of us had a love and appreciation for traditional country music,” Robbins said, “we knew we weren’t going to be that. Henry was coming from Southern Rock, Van and I were in Nashville but were writing country songs with pop sensibilities. When it came to our vocals, we wanted the three of us to be up front in the choruses like Crosby, Stills & Nash or The Eagles. What set us apart from the very beginning musically was being true to who we were individually.” BlackHawk’s 1993 self-titled Arista debut album launched with the smash single “Goodbye Says It All,” followed by the top-five hits “Every Once in a While,” “I Sure Can Smell the Rain,” “Down in Flames” and “That’s Just About Right.” The album soon certified Double-Platinum, and the band received an ACM nomination as Best New Vocal Group Of The Year. BlackHawk followed up with the hit albums “Strong Enough,” “Love & Gravity,” and “Sky’s The Limit,” which collectively featured such hits as “I’m Not Strong Enough To Say No,” “Like There Ain’t No Yesterday,” “Big Guitar,” “Al-

most A Memory Now,” “There You Have It,” and “Postmarked Birmingham.” It was an unprecedented run of hits for a band that never quite fit the standard country mold. “Getting a BlackHawk record on the radio was often a tough sell,” Henry said, “for the same reason country radio rejected bands like The Mavericks, The Dixie Chicks, and Alison Krauss. But we were committed to smart, strong songs whether they fit the format or not. And the fans responded.” Tragedy befalls group But at the height of the trio’s success in 1999, Van Stephenson was diagnosed with an aggressive form of melanoma. “Van’s contribution to the group was enormous,” Henry said. “He could be a tremendously gifted songwriter and a deeply spiritual guy. We found ourselves at a crossroads as a band, and it would have been an easy time for country music to count us out.” “Two days before Van passed away, Henry and I went to visit him,” Dave said. “Van was in a wheelchair at this point, and we took him for a stroll around his neighborhood. We spent the morning just talking, reminiscing about our career and good times together. Towards the end of our visit, Van said ‘I’ve got two things to ask of you guys. First, do what you can to help raise awareness and find a cure for this thing. The other is, don’t quit. There’s still a lot of great music left in BlackHawk.’” Since Van’s death on April 8, 2001, the band and its fans have raised nearly

a quarter of a million dollars for The Van Stephenson Memorial Cancer Fund at Nashville’s Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center. Paul and Robbins regrouped and soon returned to the album charts with their Greatest Hits—dedicated to Stephenson and featuring his final track “Ships of Heaven”—as well as 2002’s “Spirit Dancer” and 2011’s “Down From the Mountain,” along with a touring schedule that brought the music to fans like never before. “Our audiences today are often full of 18- to 30-years-olds,” Robbins said. “They listened to us as kids, and still have a love for the music we made. That’s a big part of what propels us to keep creating as writers and performers.” For the fans, for the music, and for the brotherhood of Paul and Robbins, harmony remains a powerful force. BlackHawk continues to record new music—including their well-received 2015 “Brothers of the Southland” album, a forthcoming Christmas record and an acoustic greatest hits album—and deliver stellar live shows, backed by an all-star band of veteran country and southern rock players. “BlackHawk has a 20-year history of a certain kind of song craft as well as a quality of performance,” Paul said. “People have always come to our shows expecting a concert that is emotionally and musically engaging, and the band still sounds even better than the records, night after night, show after show. When we take the stage, we work as hard as we ever have. We owe it the music, we

owe it to ourselves, and Van, and we owe it to the fans. Now more than ever, that’s the true legacy of BlackHawk.” The Saturday, Sept. 2 concert at the Calumet County Fair Grandstand is scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are on sale at ticketstaronline.com or at State Bank of Chilton (all branches— Chilton, Brillion, Sherwood, and Stockbridge), Neighborhood Bar & Grill, Ethel’s Bar & Grill (all locations—Chilton, Brillion, and Kiel), and Hickory Hills Golf Course.

Miller & Mike to bring family shows to Calumet Fair Miller & Mike have worked all over the U.S. and beyond. They have entertained audiences with the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus, Royal Caribbean Cruise Line, Apple Vacation Resorts, MTV, The Today Show, Extreme Makeover, and the Travel Channel. Right now they perform out of Wisconsin at libraries, fairs, festivals and corporate events. Combining circus skills and audience participation with good clean comedy, Miller & Mike are making memories one show at a time. Mike Lorenz is one half of the comedy team of Miller and Mike. As a professional theatrical clown, he toured with

the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus and Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines. It was during this time traveling across North America that Lorenz found his endearing on-stage persona and developed his creative brand of comedy. He said he is very proud of a career in which his goal is to make people happy. Otis Miller has always enjoyed a passion for comedy, and that really comes out in his clowning. Miller said he has enjoyed his international travels as he performed his comedy first with Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus and then with Royal Carribean Cruise Line.

Fair held in same location since 1888 The motto “The Biggest Little Fair in Wisconsin” got its start back in 1856 with the first steps in the formation of an Agricultural Society, with the first fair being held in Stockbridge, then moving to other cities and villages over the next several years, including Stockbridge, Brothertown, New Holstein and Lodi (now named Gravesville). In 1888 Harrison Hobart deeded the land known as Hobart Park to the City of Chilton with the stipulation that the property was to be used for a city park, public pleasure grounds, public fairgrounds and public race course. It was not until after 1888 that the fair had a permanent location. In 1891 the association purchased 8.5 acres from General Hobart adjacent to Hobart Park, in 1898 another parcel of 4.5 acres was purchased from Theador Kersten; in 1926 land was purchased from a German shooting club; this gave the fair all the land from the Manitowoc River to Frances Street; in 1955 another 100 feet was added on the south end which was purchased from Joseph Sell. In 1993 the association added another 40 acres from John Bittner, bringing the total land owned by the association to 56 acres. On June 15, 1878 a constitution was adopted and registered with the state under the name of Calumet County Trotting Park and Fair Association and with this charter the association was eligible for their first state aid of $100.00. In March, 1891, the official name was changed to the Calumet County Agricultural Association. As the laws have changed, it became necessary to recodify the Articles and By-Laws, the last time in 1998. It’s purpose today is the same as in 1891: The education of

agriculture, mechanical, and household arts. To further enhance the needed educational programs for the benefit of the people of Calumet County. To conduct such exhibitions, fairs, and events consistent with the educational interests and needs of people in Calumet County and the members of this Association.

Race track built in 1891 Highlighting some of the milestones from history shows that in 1863 was the first horsemanship and trotting classes were listed for premiums; in 1883 there were a total of 428 entries; in 1891 the one-mile race track was built for $1,100.00 with the single largest item being engineering for a total of $691.00. It was completed for the fair dates of September 29, 30, and October 1, 2, with 40 horses entered for the races; in 1901 the Milwaukee Daily Journal brought 200 homing pigeons to the grounds and released them from time to time with messages on fair activities; in 1904 fire destroyed all the fair records; in 1905 for the first time, the County Board appropriated money to assist the fair in the amount of $400.00. Around the year 1909 people could ride a stern-wheeler from the State Street Bridge to the fairgrounds. In 1911 the first grandstand entertainment other than racing was held at a price of $200.00; in 1914 the first auto and cycle races were held; there was a contract with Calumet Service Company to run electrical wiring to the fairgrounds at a cost of $100.00; in 1917 the first Extension Agent was Royal Klofanda; in 1919 the first Club Agent was E. W. Shellings; in 1924 A. T. Hipke was elected president and the County Board appropriated

$2,000.00 for running the fair; in 1924 membership was taken in the Wisconsin Association of Fairs; in 1928 the County Board gave $5,798.00 toward a new grandstand; in 1935 airplane rides were offered as an attraction; in 1936 the first Calumet County ribbons were printed with the county seal; in 1936 the City of Chilton showed interest in developing Hobart Park; in 1937 a quarter-mile race track was constructed with WPA labor for stock car races which were held in the 1940’s and 1950’s; 1943 saw Orrin Meyer become County Agent; 1944 the fairgrounds became a war labor camp with prisoners being used by farmers and canneries due to the labor shortage from the war; in 1955 the polio epidemic canceled the fair; 1966 gate admissions were 75 cents daily and a $2.00 season pass; 1973 saw the first Fairest of the Fair contest being held; in 1974 the first female board member was elected, in 1988 stock car races returned to the fairgrounds. Three State fairests from Calumet Calumet County Fair has been honored to have three state Fairest of the Fairs and one Alice in Dairyland. The oldest building on the grounds is the Exposition Building built in 1891. In 1919 the present horse barn was built. The Merchants Building was built in 1922. The present Grandstand was built in 1928. After World War II, interest in exhibits rose dramatically and several tents had to be erected every year for

the fair, then in 1958 the Arena was built which housed the cattle. In 1964 the Moehrke Building was built, and in 1969 the Seybold Building was erected, both are cattle barns. With the collapse of the old hog and sheep barn, a new building, the Harder-Goeldi Building was constructed in 1981, which now houses an indoor show arena and swine and sheep. In 1977 the Stanelle Building was erected due to the increase in merchants exhibiting at the fair. With the increase in 4-H exhibits, in 1987 the Brantmeier Building was built. The most recent addition is the Farm Progress Pavilion, built in 1997, which replaces the old beer tent and which can be utilized by Calumet County residents and groups for their outdoor summer festivals and events. 1999 will see the construction of a new horse barn for the area by the horse arena on the south end of the grounds. The Calumet County Fair is owned and operated exclusively by the association, a privately held organization chartered under Sec. 501(3)(c) of the Internal Revenue Code as a tax exempt organization. The organization is comprised of approximately 350 stockholders, a stockholder elected board of 21 directors, and an executive board of directors. The Calumet County Fair could not exist if it were not for the countless men and women volunteers who have given freely of their time and talents, who are devoted to the principles set by their forefathers and for the generations to come.

Fairs offer opportunities for all residents

(Below is a guest column from Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection Secretary Sheila Harsdorf written earlier this summer.) In Wisconsin, the start of summer means the start of fair season, a time for your family and communities to come together to make memories. Across the state, communities will see fairgrounds come alive with the lights of Ferris wheels, smells of fair food, and sounds of livestock. As secretary of the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection, I hope you and your family take time to make your way to at least one of the state’s dozens of fairs. Some fairs have been a community mainstay for 150 years or more, a tradition passed on for generations. This longtime tradition would not be possible without the community support and volunteer efforts of so many.

Hundreds of volunteers help coordinate logistics and run events and judging competitions, while generous sponsors and local businesses provide displays as well as financial and product donations. For young people participating in projects through 4-H, FFA, and other youth organizations, the reward goes far beyond a colored ribbon. Youth gain leadership and lifelong skills and friendships as they exhibit and compete in any of the numerous projects. Skills and talents learned at Wisconsin fairs help prepare young people for a successful career. Fairs are also a wonderful opportunity to connect urban and rural

interests. Fairgoers can experience agriculture up close and ask questions, whether it’s about how livestock are cared for or how some of our favorite foods are grown. By offering fun and educational activities, agriculturalists are connecting with consumers to teach them about the source of their food, fuel, and fiber. While agriculture is still the mainstay of our Wisconsin fairs, there is truly a project for everyone, whether living on a farm, in the city, or at a home in the country. Projects range from photography, rocketry, and computers, to clothing, livestock, and foods. In addition, fairs give us all a chance to taste the finest of Wisconsin foods. Each fair is famous for their own sweet

With live musical treats and adventurous carnival rides, fairs offer low-cost entertainment for the entire family close to home. The largest fair of them all is the Wisconsin State Fair, running from Aug. 2 to 12. One of the State Fair’s biggest fans is Governor Walker. From taking a ride in Spin City to cheering on the bidders at the Governor’s Blue Ribbon Livestock Auction, the governor is a huge proponent of the value of fairs to our youth.

Renovations made to Calumet Fairgrounds (Editor’s note: This article and photos originally ran last year in the Tri-County News following conclusion of the fair but is indicative of the continuing improvements being made to the fairgrounds by the Calumet County Agricultural Association.)

By Mark Sherry Visitors to the Calumet County Fair this past weekend might have been too busy having fun to notice all the improvements made to the fairgrounds, but there were a lot of them. Fair Board President Jeff Wunrow and First Vice President Lanetta Mahlberg said the board tries to do improvements to the fairgrounds in Chilton on an annual basis, but it seems a number of things came together to make this past year an especially busy one as the fair drew near. That includes renovations to the Stanelle Building, built in 1978 and named for Mahlberg’s sister Kathy Stanelle who was the reigning 1976 Fairest of the Fair when she was killed in a car accident in 1977. The Stanelle family donated funds to help construct the steel building, but the walls inside the structure were never completed. Funds from the family helped get that done in the past year along with updating the electrical service and installing a ceiling. A concrete pad also was poured at the entrance to the building. Mahlberg said improvements to the building could make it more useful for other events in addition to hosting merchants during the County Fair. The building also is used for storing antique vehicles during the winter. Adjacent and to the south of the Stanelle Building is the Brantmeier Youth Building. Cardinal Landscaping provided new landscaping along the front of the building as a memorial to Lynn Sattler who passed away earlier this year. Husband Dexter—a former Fair Board member—and his family provided the memorial funds, and the Calumet County Master Gardeners assisted with the plants placed in the new bricked-in flower bed running along the building. A concrete pad also was poured in front of the Brantmeier Building, helping to keep the inside of the building a little cleaner. Also in the area of those two buildings a maple tree was planted in memory of Scott Krepline who helped with excavating at the fairgrounds including on the track in front of the grandstand. Plaques will commemorate these various donations. Anyone who used the north restrooms during the fair who had used them in the past had to notice the improvements there. A donation from Martin and Rogene Biese got the ball rolling to renovate those bathrooms. Donations of fixtures from the Kohler Foundation also helped, as did assistance from local plumber Jeff Moehn. Calumet County Agricultural Association Board member Dean Gebhart was the point person on the project and did a lot of work, Mahlberg said. Originally constructed in 1936, the bathrooms saw improvements in recent months including a new roof, updated wiring in most of the building, powerwashing of the exterior brick, a new concrete walkway around the building, baby changing stations, new paint, new vanity tops, diamond plating above flush urinals in the men’s room, and more. The Calumet County Farm Bureau also constructed a new food stand which was officially dedicated last Friday morning as the fair opened.

New vanity tops and sinks in the north restrooms were a welcome addition to the Calumet County Fairgrounds as the annual County Fair held its four-day run in 2017. New fixtures throughout the building welcomed visitors to the fair.
