Shady Characters towns in this area.” Kochanny said the food pantry is a common choice for charity events, and the business association donates whenever possible. “The food pantry always has a need. They’ve been very gracious in the past. It’s one of those things where you can never give enough,” he said. In the past, the Umbrellas of Harbert has raised funds for Chickaming Open Lands, the River Valley Senior Center and Michiana

ARBERT— Several years ago, the Harbert Business Association set out to find a way to attract tourists to the local businesses. The solution? Nine-foot painted umbrellas. Each year, the handpainted pieces line the highway for Umbrellas of Harbert, an annual event that not only provides a positive economic impact for the local business district, but also raises funds for local charities. “It’s pretty interesting to drive down Red Arrow Highway. You’re driving through Lakeside and Union Pier and it looks like a regular landscape, and then you get to Harbert and you see these big nine-foot umbrellas,” said Rich Kochanny, president of the Harbert Business Association. Kochanny said the goal of Umbrellas of Harbert is to bring public awareness to the town as a diverse community with many businesses and cultural offerings, while simultaneously giving local artists a unique platform to showcase their work. “When we started the business association, the thing we realized is that unlike a lot of businesscentered towns with a downtown where you can walk from businesses to business, our businesses are stretched out along Red Arrow Highway. People are driving by at 50 to 55 miles per hour. The idea came up to try to display large works of art,” Kochanny said. The business association developed the event with the idea that it benefits everyone in the communi-
Humane Society, among several others. The hand-painted umbrellas are on display in Harbert until the auction Aug. 16. Guests are invited to the Center of the World Showroom beginning at 5 p.m. to enjoy music, wine and light hors d’oeuvres while viewing the umbrellas up for auction. The silent auction begins at 6:15 p.m. At the end of the evening, the results of the auction are revealed and the top bidders may redeem their purchases.

ty. Local businesses see a boost in customer traffic and sales. The community benefits culturally from the works of art. The charities benefit from the funds raised when the umbrellas are sold. “People start pulling over to look at (the umbrellas), taking pictures. They’re large, so they real-
ly make an impression from the road,” Kochanny said. After the summer-long display, the umbrellas are sold at a charity auction in the Center of the World showroom. This year’s auction begins at 6:15 p.m. Aug. 16. “This year we chose to donate the benefits to the
Friends of New Troy and Harbor Country Food Pantry,” Kochanny said. “Friends of New Troy are our neighbor community, a town over from us. They have a community center over there, and they do great work trying to bring some life to a town that’s not a regular tourist town like some of the other

ARBERt — Niles Charter Township will cut the ribbon this weekend on a 3.3-mile section of the soon to be completed 34-mile IndianaMichigan River Valley Trail. Residents are encouraged to bring their bicycles, or just themselves, to Niles Township Hall, 320 Bell Rd., Niles at 10 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 9. There, state and local officials will be celebrating the completion of the first phase of the paved-trail project for Niles Charter
Township, spanning from the Indiana/Michigan state line to Brandywine Creek Nature Park, just north of US-12. Construction began this spring. Township Supervisor Jim Stover said the multiuse trail has the potential to make an impact on the area’s economics, although the extent of its impact may not be measurable. “I believe there will be a lot of participants who are commuting to the trail and then going back,” he said. “Will they stop at local merchants before and after? I don’t know, but the possibility is there.” The program is expected to last about a half an hour, with the ribbon cutting set for around 10:30 a.m. Afterward, cake will
be served and some officials will go for a ride on the trail. A police officer is expected to be present to educate people on safety and to supervise the influx of people crossing U.S. Highway 12. Joey Armadillo’s will open for lunch at around 11 a.m. to accommodate the trail users. Also, volunteers will be picking up trash along the Niles Township segment of the trail beginning at 6 p.m. Wednesday. Anyone interested in helping should meet at the Niles Township Hall at that time. A bike/trail safety forum will also be that evening in the township hall from 7 to 8 p.m. hosted by Michigan State Police Trooper Rob Herbstreith. Following the
presentation, attendees are invited to ride or walk the trail a few days ahead of the grand opening. The Bike Michiana Coalition will donate free bike safety gifts. The Indiana-Michigan River Valley Trail will eventually span two states and 34 miles, connecting the City of Niles to Mishawaka, Indiana. A few segments remain to be finished, including a mile of trail north of Brandywine Creek Nature Park and segments in Indiana. The second phase in Niles Township is expected to cost a little more than $600,000 with the City of Niles and Niles Township jointly responsible for paying approximately $178,000 of that, Harry Thibault said. The rest would be covered by grants.

Shakespeare on the… gridiron? South Bend’s Art Beat welcomes new theatrical feature

OUTH BEND — Over the past few centuries, the works of William Shakespeare have been performed on hundreds of thousands of stages, in community parks and classrooms, museums and even in the street. When the 11th annual Art Beat visits downtown South Bend next Saturday, visitors will be able to view the classic works on an entirely new platform: the gridiron. To celebrate what would have been Shakespeare’s 450th birthday, members the Notre Dame Shakespeare Festival has been performing his works in all over Michiana, from Three Oaks’ Dewey Cannon Park to Mishawaka’s Battell Center. Friday, Aug. 16, various Shakespeare groups will perform on the gridiron at Tthe former College Football
.
Hall of Fame, 111 S. St. Joseph St. “In celebration of a couple of anniversaries that we’re celebrating this year, including Shakespeare’s 450th birthday, which is being celebrated all across the world, 150 years of Shakespeare at Notre Dame’s Campus and the 15th year of the Notre Dame Shakespeare Festival, we thought we could do something special,” said Aaron Nichols, audience development manager of Shakespeare at Notre Dame. “We thought it was a neat opportunity to do something with downtown South Bend, and what better opportunity to do that than with their Art Beat celebration?” Nichols spoke with the Downtown South Bend organization and got several performing arts groups on board to perform, including the Young Company with Notre Dame’s Shakespeare Festival, the Robinsons Shakespeare Company, a
performance group with “We will have nonstop Indiana University South performances from 12:30 to Bend and another from 6:30 p.m.,” Nichols said, addClay High school. ing that the Society for
Creative Anachronism (SCA) Barony of Whitewaters will present medieval fight reenactments as the various performance groups are tearing down and setting up their sets between shows. Notre Dame’s Young Company, which is comprised of students who spend their summer learning the arts of acting, production management and set and costume construction, will perform an adaptation of “The Merry Wives of Windsor,” by awardwinning director West Hyler, which moves the setting from the original Elizabethan England to the modern-day Midwest. Clay High School will perform “Othello,” and IUSB will perform “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare…Abridged.” The Shakespeare productions will be just one of more than 250 attractions at South Bend’s Art Beat that features art from a variety of mediums, including visual, culinary and
performing arts. “(Art Beat) features the best of the best in the local art scene. It’s family friendly, and the streets are all shut down so you can stroll the streets of downtown with your family,” said Cathy Dietz, events and downtown coordinator. “It also gives people a chance to get a look at what businesses are down here.” Those who can’t make it to Art Beat have other opportunities to see the Shakespeare Festival in action at a couple of other shows this month. The group will perform at 7 p.m. Aug. 9 at Elkhart’s Wellfield Botanic Gardens. At the end of the month, the festival will finish the outdoor series with a finale at Notre Dame’s main quad in front of the golden dome at 7 p.m. Aug. 25. “I should mention that all these shows are free. We encourage people to set up a chair or bring a picnic blanket and sit back and enjoy the show,” Nichols said.

“I think it’s the experience of the drive-in. I like to think we have really good hamburgers, too. It’s a real summertime feel when you come here,” he said. “In the spring and fall we get a lot of the locals, but in the summertime we get a lot of vacationers and tourists. We stay pretty busy.” Other popular menu items include frosted mug root beer and root beer floats, hot dogs, chicken strips and milkshakes. “My wife makes homemade pie, and we do all the fruits that are in season. We start with strawberry and then we do blueberry and peach, and we might do apple,” Neidlinger said. Along with his wife, Neidlinger shares responsibilities in the restaurant with his aunt and his mother. “Our building, it’s pretty tiny. You’ll get in an argument with somebody working in this little shoebox here. You know, someone bumps into you or you don’t agree with something and you’ll argue. But 10 minutes later everything is OK,” Neidlinger said. “It’s nice to have somebody you can trust. I wouldn’t have it any other way.” Mikey’s is open from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, and 12 to 7 p.m. Sunday. “We open the first of April and go until the end of September,” Neidlinger said.
Mikey’s Drive-In offers 1950s restaurant experience
B
RIDGMAN — It is the end of a hot summer day when a family of five begins to pack up the beach towels and sand pails to make the long trek home. Exhausted and hungry from a long day of running up and down the dunes, playing in the clay pits and splashing in Lake Michigan, Dad makes the decision to pick up dinner on the way home. He pulls into a parking spot, rolls down the window and waits for a waitress to come take their orders. Minutes later, she skates back out to the car, food in tow, and props a tray on the window filled with crispy French fries and ice cold milkshakes. As much as this paints a picture of a scene from a 1950s sitcom, it could just as easily describe a typical day at Mikey’s Drive-In in Bridgman. “It’s kind of that nostalgic drive-in. A lot of people are kind of surprised when they come across it,” said Steve Neidlinger, owner of the restaurant. “This place has been here since the ‘50s. It’s a dying breed as far
as restaurants go.” Neidlinger and his family purchased the restaurant two years ago, determined to stay true to the family atmosphere the establishment has boasted for more than half a century. “We’ve changed a few menu items and stuff like that. I put in a new air conditioner. But other than that, not a lot (has changed). I try to keep that old-time feel,” he said. Located just a few miles from Warren Dunes State Park on Red Arrow Highway in Bridgman, Neidlinger said the restaurant attracts a lot of tourists, as well as locals.

Arepas Yield: 18 4 inch round Arepas 4 ¼ cups finely ground cornmeal 2 ¾ cups gluten free flour mix (Bob’s or Trader Joe’s) 1 teaspoon sea salt 6 tablespoons chia gel (make gel in advance (see below) 1 T chia seed and 1/3 cup water) 2-¾ cup vegetable stock 1 teaspoon ground pepper 2 teaspoons garlic powder 1-2 tablespoon sugar (to taste) 2 tablespoons sea salt 2/3 cup sweet corn kernels 4 tablespoons vegan margarine such as Earth Balance 4 tablespoons canola or grapeseed oil for frying Directions: 1. In a small ramekin, whisk together the chia seeds and water, forming a gel. Let set 15 minutes. 2. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the cornmeal, sea salt, chia gel, garlic and sugar. 3. Meanwhile, heat the vegetable stock until it’s just about to boil. 4. Pour over the cornmeal and stir in the remaining ingredients with a heavy wire whisk or spoon until fully combined. 5. Add the corn kernels last, once the other ingredients are mixed well. 6. Warm a non-stick frying pan and add the grapeseed or canola oil until it starts to bubble. 7. Using 1/3 measuring cup or ice cream scoop, drop batter into frying pan. 8. Let fry 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown, then flip carefully. 9. Place cooked fritters on a paper towel covered plate and repeat until all the batter is gone. 10. Let cool enough to assemble, then carefully slice the fritter longways with a paring knife and stuff with relish or crumbles (recipes to follow). 11. Pour the sauce over top, add relish and a squeeze of lime, then garnish with lime wedge and serve.
Heirloom Tomato & Corn Relish Yield: About 4 cups relish
2 cups heirloom grape tomatoes, halved 1 cup sweet corn kernels (cooked if using fresh off the cob) 1 cup red onion, diced ½ cup fresh cilantro, loosely chopped 2 cloves minced garlic 1 serrano pepper, seeded and finely chopped 1 teaspoon sea salt Juice of 1 lime 1.

Heat a small sauce pan over medium heat. Add the havarti and jack chunks, stirring constantly with a heavy wire whisk. 2. When the cubes start to melt, stir in the vegetable stock and serrano peppers. Continue to stir constantly until the cheese has melted and a nice creamy sauce is forming. Stir in the spices and reduce heat to low. 3. Let simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until sauce is a nice thick alfredo consistency and is smooth. 4. Pour over Arepas and enjoy.

ArtBeatSouthBend.org
1 package Daiya jalapeno havarti style block cheese 1 package Daiya jack style block cheese 2 tsp fresh cilantro chopped 1. Crumble cheese into medium size bowl with hands 2. Stir in the cilantro. COOKS’ NOTE: To save time during prep, make the sauce or crumbles while you’re frying the Arepas. It will save time if you prep all the veggies before you start mixing the batter. You have time while frying to make everything else and you don’t want to leave the sauce sitting too long once it’s ready.
