It’s all about DC!

he Go! Guide has an exciting new design! It all begins on the cover with a bold, energetic logo and a delightful photograph by Jeff Larson — real vacationers enjoying one of the county’s beautiful beaches. And, as you move through the guide, you’ll find easy-to-read information about each of the villages and clearly-outlined sections on restaurants, shopping, sports, leisure, and much more. There are a number of ways you can find what you’re looking for. If you want a great restaurant, for example, GO to the table of contents, or, GO to the index on the right hand page of each Village spread — and look for ‘restaurants’ — this will direct you to a list of restaurants for that village. You can also search for a particular dining spot by both the ‘category’ and ‘village’ indexes at the back of the book. There’s a lot of info in this guide, but we’ve tried to make it as simple as possible for you to have everything at your fingertips. Make the Go! Guide your personal, handy tool so you can have the best vacation possible. And if you like, let us know how it works for you. Have a great time in Door County!

The MacDonald Family

his summer, Elaine and Robert ‘Smilen’ MacDonald will celebrate 40 years of living their dream and owning the popular Bayside Tavern. Like many of the friendly Door County folks who run other family-owned businesses, the MacDonalds have an interesting history. In the 1950s, Elaine dropped out of E ast High School in Green Bay just short of graduating and took a job at a local hospital. She then married Smilen MacDonald and they began raising a family of six children — Pat, Bob, Ron, Christie, Karen, and Billy. 90

Celebrates 40 Good Years! When their children were young, Elaine and Smilen (who is always ‘smiling’) started hauling them from Green Bay to Peninsula State Park for summer camping vacations. They all felt the county was the most beautiful place on earth, and dreamed of living there one day. On July 4th of 1975, Elaine and Smilen met the Pelkeys — the original owners of Bayside Tavern in Fish Creek. By August 15th they had purchased the tavern and moved their entire family into the small living quarters behind the bar — including — c o n t i n u e d doorcountytoday.com

daughter Karen and her husband Daryl. Son Pat was a musician on the road. Locals were curious about the big family that bought Bayside Tavern. Who exactly did these ‘city folk’ think they were — coming to Fish Creek to run a bar when none of them had service industry experience? But, it didn’t take long for the tavern regulars to discover Smilen’s great personality — they soon grew fond of him, Elaine, and the kids. Son Bob, a former Kohler Corporation creative director, recalls that their first summer was simply perfect. The location of their new home was a dream for a gang of growing teenagers. He remembers running down to the marina and jumping off the pier each day. And, all the kids helped at the business — stocking shelves, bartending day or night, cleaning the six cottages, doing yard work, and performing live music. Over the years, the Bayside has changed. In 1983, the living quarters were moved upstairs, and a commercial kitchen was installed in the old family living space. The decor evolved into a classic northwoods pub style — with handcrafted metal railings, Kevin Combes’ woodworking and carvings, and decades of framed family memories. They also transformed the six cottages behind the tavern into unique family-owned shops. Today, four new businesses make up what is now called the ‘Alleyway Shops’ —including daughterin-law Debbra’s Wink Swimwear. Bob believes the ‘Bayside’ has stayed in the family for 40 years because of the solid foundation his parents built — a welcoming attitude, fair prices, and their award-winning chili. Today, Bob is the tavern’s general manager, but Elaine and Smilen are still the heart and soul of the business. 92

In fact, when Elaine was approaching her 80th birthday, she insisted that she didn’t want a party. Bob, however found a way to celebrate this amazing woman. He contacted E ast High School and asked if they might present Elaine with an honorary diploma because of her success as a businesswoman and community member. Elaine had also taken classes toward earning her GED while the kids were young. Because of this she had enough credits to qualify for graduation — and received a real diploma! Now, instead of a birthday celebration, they honored Elaine with a graduation party — including cake, cap, and gown. Bob notes that one other thing speaks volumes about his parents — even though Elaine and Smilen divorced 30 years ago, they have remained best friends and business partners. And, when in 1998 they lost their beloved son Bill in a car accident, the event only brought the family even closer. Together, they continue to honor Bill and their love of Door County by always welcoming friends and visitors alike to Bayside Tavern with an ever-present smile! — Laurel Ciohon doorcountytoday.com

Norb Blei’s Writing ‘Coop’ Has a New Home

very day for almost 45 years energy crackled from a little spot near Europe Lake. Now only a small footprint remains where an old cedar-shingled chicken coop once stood. Converted into a tiny writing studio—the humble, creative cove was where Door County’s best-known writer, Norb Blei penned his novels, short stories, essays, and poems. After moving to northern Door with his family in 1968, this former teacher and journalist from Chicago spent decades documenting the people, manners and customs of the Door Peninsula. His freelance articles were a powerful marketing force, luring first-time visitors from throughout the Midwest. Norb’s voice was one of the loudest to consistently call for protection of the county’s people, landscapes and shorelines. Now Norbert Blei has left us. His legacy includes 16 published works, related writing awards, the Cross+Roads Press chapbooks he published of other writers’ work, and eight years of Poetry Dispatch essays. His spirit can always be found in his books and wherever you connect to the county’s beauty. His writing ‘Coop’, has been moved to a new home at the “Write On, Door County!” writing arts center in Juddville, between Egg Harbor and Fish Creek. Here, it will productively live on, providing a safe haven and inspiration to new generations of Midwestern writers. — Jude Genereaux editor’s note:

Norbert Blei’s famed Coop will be formally dedicated and celebrated during an Open House at Write On, Door County (4177 Juddville Road, Fish Creek) on Saturday, May 30, 2015, from 1-4 pm. for more info: writeondoorcounty.org doorcountytoday.com

snowmobile adventures “There are so many places accessible by snowmobile that you can’t traverse by car, or even by foot,” says Steve Sohns, president of the Villagers Snowmobile Club and the Door County Trails Association. “Door County has some of the most diverse trails in all of Wisconsin.” The 250 miles of state and club trails are carefully maintained by the Door County Parks System, which also oversees the seven snowmobile clubs on the peninsula. Join a local club and help keep the sport alive! For club contacts, visit: map.co.door.wi.us/parks/snowmobile.htm.

Peninsula School of Art Marks 50 Years of Growth

ate Chicago filmmaker Madeline Tripp Tourtelot wouldn’t recognize the school she founded in Fish Creek 50 years ago. The Peninsula School of Art was once a seasonal fine art school with two barn-like studios in a field of wildflowers. Today, the year-round facility serves 2,000 students of all ages. As a young woman, Tourtelot spent summers taking painting workshops from Art Institute of Chicago instructors on the porch of the historic White Gull Inn in Fish Creek. Her passion for art blossomed and later fostered the encouragement of creative expression in others. E arly in her career she also became a filmmaker of note, working with experimental composer/ musician Harry Partch on films like Windsong (1958). In the early 1960s, Tourtelot purchased 3.5 acres in Fish Creek to lay the foundation for Peninsula School of Art. Her husband, Chicago architect Ted Tourtelot, designed the school’s first studios, officially opening in summer 1965. Tourtelot ran the school until 1971, donating the land and buildings to the Peninsula Arts Association in 1978. Upon completion of the main building – with five painting studios, a ceramics studio, metals studio, resource library, lecture room, offices, and the Guenzel Gallery – it became a year-round facility in 1999. After adjacent land purchases, including that of iconic potter Abe Cohn, the school has expanded to a 10-acre campus. It is also host to the annual Door County Plein Air Festival. editor’s note:

Experience PenArt’s 50th Anniversary exhibition, May 22 – July 11, “The Beat Goes On: The Happening of PenArt, 1965.” Featuring NBC news clips from 1965, films by Madeline Tourtelot, a holographic screening of Tourtelot’s film Windsong, archival interviews with early students and instructors, plus art from the school’s first seasons. Located at 3900 County Road F, Fish Creek. doorcountytoday.com

Q +A with Victor Yampolsky in 2015, 30 years as pmf ’ s music director 63rd annual peninsula music festival, august 4-22, 2015

•

schedule at musicfestival.com

What was your childhood in the Soviet Union like?

I only remember being loved by my parents, but having pillow fights with my brother. What experience(s) first drew you to a love of music?

oth my parents played piano, so I hardly had a day B without hearing music! What instrument(s) do you play and why?

y instrument is violin. I ended up with it, because I asked M Mom to buy it for my seventh birthday. What made you decide to emigrate to the United States?

y youngest brother immigrated six M months before me, so in a way I followed him. (A three part video series on Victor’s journey to America can be viewed on the Peninsula Music Festival’s YouTube channel.) Why have you stayed with PMF for 30 years?

eninsula Music Festival is the next best thing after P white bread, so I am honored to be its Music Director. What do you like/love about Door County?

I love the people even more than the natural beauty of the land. I love the culture, art, music and genuine friendliness of Door County residents. What do you hope your legacy at PMF will be?

I never had a minute to think about my legacy! Studying my music scores takes most of my time. doorcountytoday.com

E ngage in the Seasons

f you believe that wellness is about how you feel, nurture your body, and care for your spirit, then consider how each of the seasons offer an array of opportunities for you to engage in all aspects of your Self. Spring: Life starts fresh. It is a season of new beginnings. Find your center through mediation and visualize your re-emerging Self — just like spring violets as they push through the soil and burst into bloom. Remake yourself through yoga, hiking or biking in a park, taking culinary classes, or visiting a spa retreat. Summer: What speaks wellness more than nature? We are called to serene sunrises and sunsets, fresh fruits and vegetables from roadside markets, and beaches with sparkling water that stretches into the horizon. Swim, kayak, sail, or go fishing — find a way to bathe in the warm summer sun and refreshing lakes to exhilarate yourself and lift your spirit. Fall: This is the season to revel in bursts of color — yellows, oranges, and reds of nature’s autumn palette. Take in the fruits of the season — apples, pumpkins, and squash. Enjoy that last bike ride, hop on a ferry, and bask in the lingering warmth of the sun on your face. It’s time to slow down and recharge from a busy summer. Winter: The season starts with the richness of the holiday season. Pine trees adorned with lights, family gatherings, and shared sumptuous meals. Winter then settles into stillness — quiet frozen lakes, soft snowfalls, and the gentle swish of cross- country skiers in the woods. This is the time to listen to your heartbeat and the rhythm of your soul. A time for contemplation, for writing, for Self care. Whatever the season — the beauty and diversity of the county will support and enrich you. — Marise Redmann doorcountytoday.com
