Two things haven’t. Quality. Commitment.

Times have changed in our industry, and here at Enterprise Printing we’ve been in the forefront. Our experienced staff started in the printing business when a shift to four-color was a big thing; now quality four-color work is expected. And it’s not expected just for long-run orders or a special occasion, but also for small runs down to a handful. That’s one reason we led the way in bringing digital printing to Leelanau County. We are fully equipped in most cases to download your digital file and print your order in a day, or even hours. We continue to move forward because of our commitment to serve your needs. We believe Leelanau County deserves its own quality printer. We strive every day to be that printer for you.

COLONISTS RETURN fire with British soldiers in this battle during the American Revolutionary War.
Teachers tab Thomas Jefferson as favorite signer By Eric Carlson Of The Enterprise staff
If anybody should have some well-formed opinions on the Declaration of Independence and the men who signed it, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s those who have been deemed â&#x20AC;&#x153;highly qualifiedâ&#x20AC;? by the Michigan Department of Education to teach American history or government to our youth. A half-dozen such teachers representing Leelanau Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s four public school districts responded to a request from the Enterprise to offer their thoughts on the declaration and its signers. A solid majority of the listed Thomas RYAN DEFOUR teachers Jefferson as their â&#x20AC;&#x153;favoriteâ&#x20AC;? signer of the Declaration of Independence. But John Hancock, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin and even Josiah Bartlett received honorable mentions. Teacher Ryan DeFour of Leland acknowledged that picking Jefferson as his favorite might not be the most original choice. But Jefferson â&#x20AC;&#x153;did the majority of the writing of the document and his views on independence were bold and consistent,â&#x20AC;? DeFour said. Jeffersonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s boldness and consistency are the traits DeFour said he admires most, not only in Jefferson but in all the signers of the declaration. Teacher Keven Cross of Suttons Bay had a slightly different take on the question, and said John Adams was his favorite signer. KEVEN CROSS â&#x20AC;&#x153;To me, Adams truly walked the walk, so to speak, of what the new country was to stand for when he volunteered to defend the British soldiers who were jailed for their actions during the Boston Massacre,â&#x20AC;? Cross said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The fact that Adams stood up for the soldiers

Cross said. Fellow Suttons Bay teacher Doug Periard sided with the majority, however, and picked Jefferson because of his ability to take the ideals of the
Enlightenment Era to fruition. Periard described Franklin as â&#x20AC;&#x153;truly a Renaissance man.â&#x20AC;? Teacher Kris Herman of Glen Lake also favored Jefferson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have always been fascinated by Jefferson and the political journey that he took,â&#x20AC;? Herman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He started as an Enlightenment thinker who strongly believed in the Natural Rights ideals of John Locke, played a major role in the Declaration of Independence, became an DOUG PERIARD ardent Anti-Federalist who was completely against big government, and then didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really see a reason to reverse some of the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;big governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; policies of the Federalists once he took office,â&#x20AC;? Herman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of other people would probably say Franklin, and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interesting, too, but not like Jefferson,â&#x20AC;? Herman KRIS HERMAN said â&#x20AC;&#x153;I also thought it was pretty cool that President Bartlett on the West Wing (television show) was written as a descendant of Josiah Bartlett, another signer of the declaration,â&#x20AC;? Herman added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the thing that I admire most about the signers,â&#x20AC;? Herman said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;was just their courage to actually go KEVIN through with it.â&#x20AC;? SKARNULIS Northport teacher Kevin Skarnulis said he had two â&#x20AC;&#x153;favorite signersâ&#x20AC;? of the Declaration of Independence â&#x20AC;&#x201D; John Adams and Benjamin Franklin. Adams had a â&#x20AC;&#x153;steady, relentless, and logical approach to the challenges and crises,â&#x20AC;? Skarnulis (Concluded on Page 4)

He brought people together in compromise when it mattered most.â&#x20AC;? As for Franklin, Skarnulis said, he was a â&#x20AC;&#x153;renaissance man whose unquenchable curiosity exemplified what it means to be a lifelong learner.â&#x20AC;? Skarnulis said Franklinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s autobiography is one of his favorite books. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I also admire his wit and ability to take care of business while still enjoying life to the fullest,â&#x20AC;? Skarnulis said of Franklin. Leland teacher Ed Wodek said that he, too, likes Jefferson, but John Hancock deserves to be noted for his character traits.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;You see, Jefferson was indeed the brains behind the document, taking the basic premise from John Locke,â&#x20AC;? Wodek said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;which was basically dissolving a faulty government and starting anew.â&#x20AC;? But, for Wodek, something else distinguished Hancock. â&#x20AC;&#x153;John Hancock truly made a statement of his belief about the King and the British Parliament by his signature â&#x20AC;&#x201D; so much larger than the rest to make sure the King could see it without his glasses,â&#x20AC;? Wodek said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a ED WODEK F a c e b o o k moment!â&#x20AC;? Skarnulis summed up his thoughts by noting that the conviction, courage and audacity of the signers of the Declaration of Independence are what set them apart. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People in their position who failed would have been executed for treason,â&#x20AC;? Skarnulis said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They were willing to boldly stand up for their beliefs and sense of right and wrong. They also led with their actions as much as their words. Both traits are invaluable and in perpetual short supply.â&#x20AC;?

nesses and clients. Local townships, villages and cities can’t help. The act specifically overrides ordinances, even those that govern noise. The act does not provide setbacks from property lines — meaning someone could light off a “sparkling wheel” within feet of a neighbor’s house — and does not deal with where the debris from an aerial display may land. The law, however, did find space to set a 6 percent tax on the sale of fireworks and place monies collected in a “fireworks safety fund” for dispursement to local units of governments. The first $1 million collected will be used “defray inspection costs with the enforcement of this act.” Local fire departments could receive grants for training. Leelanau County Emergency Services Director Tom Skowronski attended an information conference May 7 in Gaylord sponsored by the Michigan Licensing and Regulatory Affairs department. The conference was attended by an assortment of law enforcement officials and fire chiefs in northern Michigan. Most in attendance were unhappy with aspects of the new law, he said, although Leelanau County will not follow the path that some jurisdictions may follow. Skowronski said some dispatchers in other jurisdictions may tell residents complaining about fireworks to “call their Legislator.” “That’s no way to handle it,” Skowronski said. “What we anticipate
seeing is neighbors calling because people will be shooting them off all hours of the night. As long as people use common sense, and it’s just after dark, I don’t think you’ll see many issues.” The state law provides for fines up to $1,000 for those in violation, and placed some activities off limits. They include: • Fireworks may not be lit on public property unless authorized. • Still off limits are “m-80’s” and “cherry bombs.” • They may not be sold to a minor. • And the person igniting fireworks may not be smoking or intoxicated. Where to buy this expanded array of explosives? When this article was written, no Enterprise staff members had seen fireworks for sale in Leelanau County. Gus O’Brien, owner of Hansen Foods in Suttons Bay, said he opted not to apply for a license to sell the expanded assortment of fireworks now legal in Michigan. The store is, however, carrying the types of fireworks it sold in previous years. An inside display of fireworks was available at Meijer, but store director John Spaulding said the franchise was not expanding its offerings of exploding devices to take advantage of the new law. As in past years, the store has given permission to a local church to use a portion of the Meijer parking lot to sell fireworks as a fundraiser. Spaulding said the vendor representing the church may expand its inventory.

Three fireworks events planned in county Looking for some big-time boombooms? Leelanau County can supply, as three firework events are being planned in and around Leelanau County. First to start off the holiday blasts is Leland, where fireworks will be shot off at Hancock Field on Tuesday. A patriotic song and hymn fest will start activities at 8 p.m. at the Village Green in Leland. Patriotic songs, Christian hymns, folk songs, patriotic recitations and prayers for the nation will be on tap. The Back Room Gang from Traverse City will perform. After the fest activity will move to Hancock Field, which usually fills with fireworks viewers toting portable chairs, blankets and other Fourth of July amenities. North Lake Leelanau will likely also fill — with boats. It’s become a popular venue for viewing
after the display was moved inland from the Leland Harbor. The Village of Northport will host revelers along its waterfront on the actual date of the holiday. A concert by the Village Voices and Northport Community Band will begin at 7 p.m. K Jones and the Benzie Playboys will offer zydeco, cajun and Creole music until dusk, followed by the village’s fireworks display. Fireworks will also be shot over West Grand Traverse Bay on the evening of the Fourth of July, courtesy of a non-profit group that is raising money to ensure that the Fourth is always celebrated with fireworks in Traverse City. The Traverse City Boom-Boom Club is planning to raise $45,000 to put on a half-hour display, which will be 10 minutes longer than previous years.
Donors may attend a party and enjoy special seating in the Traverse City Open Space. The display will also be enjoyed by spectators in Greilickville, who are expected to fill the Elmwood Township park and marina. The Boom-Boom Club was organized by former National Cherry Festival executive director Tim Hinkley. Trevor Tkach, who followed Hinkley as executive director, said the cherry festival is in full support of the non-profit’s efforts. “We’ve been helpful as best as we can be, but at the end of the day they’re doing the heavy lifting,” said Tkach. The cherry festival officially starts on Saturday, July 7, and will conclude with a fireworks finale display on Saturday, July 14.

THE CHERRY Bomb, left, and M-80 have been banned by federal law since 1966 because of the large amounts of explosive composition they contain.
Tammy Tarsa, RN, BSN Owner and Manager
6-28-12
A new law governing fireworks is clear about which explosives are legal, and which ones aren’t. Determining the difference from a patrol car is another matter. County sheriff’s officers and emergency service personnel have sorted through a fireworks control act signed in 2011 by the state Legislature and signed by Gov. Rick Snyder. They don’t necessarily like what they found, as they will be handing complaints when bigger and louder fireworks are set off — legally — in Leelanau County. They expect noise and dangerous situations to escalate and peak over the Fourth of July holiday. They’re hoping any problems encountered will come and go with the holiday. “Do I like it?” asked county undersheriff Scott Wooters. “Do my dogs like it? No. But it’s usually a once-a year thing.” He and county detective Clint Kerr expect that deputies will be of little help in handling most complaints, as the new law makes legal a new barrage of fireworks that prevously could only be purchased and lit in other states. The law states that people who are sober may light off an extended list of fireworks. But telling if someone is intoxicated from afar is just about impossible. “How are you going to know if they are sober or not?” Wooters continued. “The biggest thing we’re going to ask for is tolerance, and respect for the enjoyment of participants. I’m sure we’ll get a lot of calls, and go to doors, and do the best we can.” Kerr, too, was concerned about handling what may be legitimate complaints about safety. “We hope the people will be safe with the opportunity to use a wide variety of fireworks,” he said. “(Dispatch) will let us know if we get a complaint, but it’s somewhat of an unenforceable situation.” The Michigan Fireworks Safety Act, ironically, offers little guidance for regulating ignition of a wider array of fireworks that are now legal. It instead spends most of its pages laying out the licensing procedure for companies vying to sell fireworks and the nowlegal transactions between those busi-

MIKE DEPUY, a Glen Lake parent, spent part of Father’s Day working on the school float, which will be in National Cherry Festival parades.
Handmade floats all for the love of a parade Festival “princess” Emma DePuy and a 19-year member of the National Cherry Festival (NCF) staff. DePuy is the office manager for the NCF and works in event planning — including the royalty programs, air show and parades. “This year, when the school called and said that Emma was picked, I decided I’d have to step back from the royalty and the parades,” she said. To be sure each school is on a level playing field, the NCF gives them $150. Then they are responsible for securing donations of $250. Glen Lake’s Parent-Teacher organization also contributed $150. The theme of this year’s parade is “America the Beautiful”, based loosely on Good Morning America’s designation of the Sleeping Bear Dunes as the Most Beautiful Place in the country. Each participating school choses a state on which to base its float. Glen Lake chose Hawaii. Depuy and Lisa Davis, mother of prince Alexander Davis, came up with a design for the float, the centerpiece of which is a volcano. Construction was up to the dads. “Some of the other kids’ dads are in

BILL ROBINSON Bill Robinson grew up in Elmwood Township and remembers his mother and his four siblings picking cherries at Frank Kroupa’s farm off Lincoln Road. It was the mid-1960s. “She was 5-foot-1, probably weighed 100 lbs.. and could pick as much as a migrant family of eight,” Robinson said. He and his brother are constructing a float for the NCF as a tribute to his mother, Marcelle Robinson, who holds the unofficial county cherry picking record — 60 lugs in one day. The Robinsons started the cherry

“They help where they can, but they pretty much stick to cleaning up. After all, how much work can you get out of a 7-year-old?,” she said. The float was scheduled to be completed last weekend as DePuy and the other parents consider whether the finish product reflects what they had in mind and perhaps more importantly, whether it’s something of which the school can be proud. “We probably have 22 hours total into it,” DePuy said. “It’s not the kind of thing you can whip out in a day … But if you have a plan, it doesn’t take that long to execute. It’s been a lot of fun.”

Hundreds, perhaps thousands, of people in Leelanau County will make a parade part of their July 4 plans next week. Glen Arbor is known for its “anything goes” parade and the Polka Parade in Cedar follows suit. Leland’s annual celebration is a little more formal and has the greatest number of “real” floats. The problem is, not everyone has the time it takes to put ideas on paper and do what’s necessary to come up with something they’d be proud to drive down main street. We talked with a Leelanau County native who is putting a float together as a tribute to his mother for the National Cherry Festival. We also talked with a mother, who along with other parents, are preparing a float to represent their childrens’ school in the Traverse City festivities. Here’s some insight into what goes into constructing a float. MANDY DEPUY “I’m usually in on the planning, not the hands-on type of stuff,” said Mandy DePuy, mother of Glen Lake’s Cherry
the building industry and have the expertise to get it done,” DePuy said. The group has met each Sunday since June 3, building the float in a friend’s barn off M-72 in Solon Township. The first Sunday was spent framing in the float platform on a trailer. June 10, the mothers worked on the papier mache volcano. Father’s Day was spent painting the background and the volcano — which had had a week to dry— and putting on the finishing touches, including huge (artificial) tropical flowers. All this with a group of excitable 7-year-olds to help.

Continued from Page 6 season by getting out in the orchard by 7 a.m., and five minutes earlier for every day thereafter. And she wasn’t afraid of heights, standing on top of a peek-a-boo, 7-foot ladder to get to a fruit-covered limb. “By the end of the five or six weeks, it became a very long day in the orchard,” he said. “She taught me how to work.” To give the public an idea of the enormity of the 60-lug record, Robinson contacted Bruce Price in Lake Leelanau for buckets and lugs. “I wanted to get 120 buckets, because each lug takes two buckets of fruit to fill,” Robinson said. “But I couldn’t find enough.” In addition to the cherry equipment, the tribute to “ Mrs. Robinson” will include banners from Britten Media purchased by Bill and an enlarged copy of an article about her record which appeared in the Leelanau Enterprise. Robinson is also getting help from his daughter, who was involved creatively with Fortune 500 companies. “My mom’s grandchildren and great-grandchild will be on the float wearing red and white,” he said. If that’s not enough detail to identify Robinson’s float, listen carefully. “Simon and Garfunkel’s Mrs. Robinson will be playing over the loudspeaker.”

PARADING the Glen Arbor
By Mike Spencer Of The Enterprise staff
6-28-12
BOONE DOGGIES and Boone Docks floats roll through Glen Arbor’s parade last year.
It may be an election year, but don’t expect politicians to be first in line at the Glen Arbor Anything Goes Fourth of July Parade. Old cars and regular day folks have always been a high priority of parade founder Stanley Brubaker. “It’s a real casual parade and it’s always been that way,” said the 84-year-old Brubaker, who never thought the neighborhood parade he started in 1963 would still be going on or would expand to five miles at one time and include hundreds of people. Brubaker, who said his wife Jo gets credit for the parade’s unique name, says even though it’s an election year, politicians will not get preferential treatment. “Politicians may say we have to be up front, but not ahead of the old cars,” Brubaker said. “They’ll just have to go the end of the line like

everybody else. “This is not a parade to show off politicians ... everybody is the show.” Brubaker started the parade at his home off W. Sleeping Bear Drive in Glen Haven shortly after he moved north in the early 1960s. “We came up from Birmingham and we had parades there,” he said. “I figured we should have one here.” In the early parades, some of the kids were lifted up into a front-end loader and carried down the parade route. “They wouldn’t let us do that today,” Brubaker noted. When old cars were added to the parade, they were put in front and have stayed there. “We’re talking pre-World War II automobiles ... those that don’t have more driven fans or radiators and run on a crankshaft,” Brubaker said. “And we always have some military vehicles.” Participants would also use bed sheets and sign Happy Birthday or other exotic slogans, Brubaker said. “We were a little more casual in those days,” said Brubaker, who rides the entire course in a yellow moped and keeps tabs on stragglers. Brubaker, who was chairman of the Glen Arbor planning and zoning commission in the 1980s, said he was told back then not to change a thing with the parade. “We were told that we’ve got something here in a small country town that attracts tourists from all over the nation,” Brubaker said. “They want to see something different.” Over the years the parade course has gone from a 1/2-mile course from the neighborhood to the Maritime Museum in Glen Haven and back to starting at Glen Haven and going all the way to the Homestead about five miles away. The route expansion to the Homestead was short-lived, Brubaker said. “They didn’t seem to appreciate a lot of excitement and racket,” he recalled. Now it runs from Glen Haven through the village of Glen Arbor, about three miles and lasts about an hour. The parade, which began with a half dozen families and 20 participants mostly on bicycles, now draws hundreds of participants and vehicles. The automobiles stage in Glen Haven, near the corner of M-109 and M-209, starting about 10 a.m. for the noon start there. People that walk the route gather about 11 a.m. at the First Church of Christ Scientist parking lot off Harbor Highway, just west of the village of Glen Arbor. Volunteer Todd Stachnik coordinates the walkers lineup. When the automobiles reach the church parking lot, the walkers are dispersed intermittently. “It takes about 15 minutes to reach the church and then it’s very slow and as the walkers merge,” Brubaker said. “But it’s still a great time and a lot of fun. “And it’s a great way to celebrate.” The Glen Arbor Chamber of Commerce also provides volunteers to sweep the streets of candy thrown by parade entries. “It helps keep the kids from dashing out,” Brubaker said. New this year will be the showing off of the $275,000 Glen Lake Fire Department rescue/fire boat. “ ... unless there is rescue call,” Brubaker said. There is no pre-registration of floats and there are no awards in this parade. “No nothing ... just come and have a good time,” Brubaker said. “It’s truly unorganized and you’ll get a laugh out of it.”

The Leland Fourth of July Parade will look more like a “Snap-Shot of Leelanau.” That’s because this year’s theme is just that. “Over the years, there’s been some good years and some bad,” said Lynn Telgard, parade organizer and a member of the Leland Improvement Association which sponsors the event. “Weather has a lot to do with it and so does whether it’s an election year.” The 3 p.m. parade begins at Christmas Tree Corner on Main Street and ends six blocks later at the Leland Village Green. “It’s pretty simple,” Telgard said. “And it’s very short.” The Leland parade features fun floats by businesses, antique cars and fire trucks, and a kid’s bike parade. “It’s small and silly, but it’s a great event for all of the tourists,” Telgard said. “And generations upon generations talk about it. Although the registration deadline has passed, Telgard said no one who wants to participate will be turned away. “We don’t turn anyone away,” Telgard said. “Some people will come up and say they missed the deadline. “But it’s OK.” Telgard said the pre-registration helps get a handle on participants. “Some years we’ve had 120 entries and some maybe only 60,” Telgard said. With tourists visiting up north for possibly two consecutive weekends, Telgard is hoping for a big turnout. Although the parade doesn’t begin until late afternoon, parade watchers have picked their seats on Main Street as early as 9 a.m. The best floats in eight different categories will receive awards. Telgard, who owns the Bluebird Restuarant and got the volunteer coordinator’s job by default, said anyone interested in taking over the organizing efforts should contact her. “Finding someone to do the organizing has been a little tough,” Telgard said. “I know that if I didn’t do it, it would fall by the wayside. “I would love to find somebody to take it over. All that’s needed is someone with a little computer savvy.”

CLASSIC BOATS were aplenty in last year’s Leland Fourth of July boat parade.
Parades to float your boats in Leland and Glen Arbor By Patti Brandt Of The Enterprise staff
For an eyeful of some classic beach beauties look no further than the annual boat parade on Lake Leelanau. Parade participants — curvy wooden charmers or vintage fiberglass lookers — line up at Nedow’s Bay near the Leland Yacht Club, with the parade starting at 6 p.m. on Saturday, July 7. The boats cruise a leisurely loop around the lake, taking about an hour. Jim Wenstrup, who has been organizing the boat parade for the last couple of years, owns a 1959 Century Resorter and leads the parade of about 20-25 boats. Big crowds gather on the docks, sometimes cheering, as the boats play follow-the-leader. On Glen Lake, the boat parade begins at about 4 p.m. on the Fourth of July, following the regular parade in Glen Arbor. And with about 50 boats, it lasts about an hour, said Molly Connolly, marketing director for the Glen Lake Chamber of Commerce. The parade has been going on for-
mally for at least a decade, Connolly said, and has really grown. “It’s becoming a big thing here in Glen Arbor,” she said. “It’s just like the Glen Arbor parade, except you’re on the water.” Anybody can be in the parade, it doesn’t cost anything, and participants don’t even have to decorate their boats. And there’s a party and cookout afterwards for the boaters, she said. “It’s pretty neat,” Connolly said. “You’re not really parading to anyone. There’s no crowd watching. It’s just a good time.” The Lake Leenanau boat parade has been going on for about 10 years, Wenstrup said, having been started by John Stanley. It was expanded three years ago to include classic fiberglass boats in addition to the older wooden boats. With bright color combinations and flared back ends like the cars from the 50s would have had, the older fiberglass boats are a little more stylish and a little less cookie-cutter, he said. Wooden boats, manufactured by companies like Chris Craft, Century
and Gar Wood, aren’t made any more, said Jim Wenstrup, And that’s part of their allure. “Most of the wooden boats on Lake Leelanau have been here since they were new 50 and 60 years ago,” Wenstrup said. “Most are owned by the same families and they’ve been passed down through the generations.” Most are collectors items. “There’s a nostalgia that this was my grandfather’s boat and now my family is enjoying it,” he said. Wenstrup, who lives in Cincinnati, is a part-time Lake Leelanau resident. His family has been summering on the lake for 74 years, having bought the cabin he still uses in the 1930s. He is the second owner of his Resorter, which was previously owned by a Lake Leelanau resident and has been on the lake since it was brand new. Wooden boats need a lot more care, said Wenstrup. who puts a fresh coat of varnish and paint on his every year. “They need to have a little loving care every year,” he said.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the Fourth of July, a time of year traditionally known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Amateur Weekâ&#x20AC;? for boaters. And with alcohol flowing freely at many cookouts, parties and events, many a marine officer cringes when boaters take to the lakes. Alcohol and boats donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mix, with alcohol being one of the biggest factors in boating accidents, said Charlie Belanger, marine commander for the Leelanau County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have to be clear-headed and operate slowly enough, in a reasonable and prudent manner,â&#x20AC;? Belanger said. Deputy Wayne Kalchik says no one has died due to a boating accident in the 17 years that he has been with the marine division. Still, over the years several accidents have revolved around the use of alcohol. And drunken driving on the water is just as illegal as it is on the road, Kalchik said, with all of the same laws applying. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to make sure people utilize a designated driver just as they would on the road,â&#x20AC;? Kalchik said. One of the biggest reasons for people getting hurt on lakes on the holiday weekend is the number of boats in the water. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The lakes get pretty congested,â&#x20AC;? Kalchik said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is a lot of traffic out there.â&#x20AC;? He reminds everyone to operate their boats in a safe manner by showing respect for other boaters and giving swimmers and dock areas plenty of room. Boaters should also make sure they have all the required safety gear on board, especially life jackets. While only children less than six years of age are required to wear their jackets, Kalchik encourages everyone to wear one, as most drowning deaths are from capsized boats or people whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve fallen off a boat. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why we like to see people wearing their life jackets,â&#x20AC;? Kalchik said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You never know when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll end up in the water.â&#x20AC;? Officers get calls almost on a daily basis for a boat adrift, a reckless boat, a boat that is too noisy, or a boat that is going too fast. But Belanger also remembers the plane that went down in
BOATING REGS Some boaters, depending on how old they are and when they were born, may need a boater safety certificate to operate a boat or personal watercraft. Here are the rules: â&#x20AC;˘ Young people aged 12-15 may operate a boat with a motor of 6 hp or more only if they have a Boater Safety certificate or are accompanied by a person at least l6 years old. â&#x20AC;˘ Youths less than 14 may not operate a personal watercraft. â&#x20AC;˘ Youths who are 14-15 years old may operate a personal watercraft only when accompanied by or operating within 100 feet of a parent or guardian. â&#x20AC;˘ Adults who were born after Dec. 31, 1978 must have a boater safety certificate to operate a personal watercraft. Lake Michigan near the Manitou islands, killing six people. It was the middle of the night and if officers hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t known the ins and outs of the waterways near the islands, it could have been much more serious, he said. It is for that reason that officers patrol the lakes on a daily basis, getting familiar with every area under their watch, including the Manitou and Fox islands. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The biggest reason for boating mishaps is failure to have a lookout,â&#x20AC;? Belanger said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is no center line, there is no edge of the road. Boats are all over the water. They have to watch where they are going all the time.â&#x20AC;? The Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s marine division deputies work every weekend, patrolling Lake Leelanau, Little Traverse Lake, and Glen, Lime and Cedar lakes, as well as Lake Michigan and the Grand Traverse Bay. The division has five boats â&#x20AC;&#x201D; three are kept at Glen Lake, Lake Leelanau and at the bay; the other two are trailered and ready to respond to emergencies on other waters. A marine officer for 40 years, Belanger also teaches a boater safety class that is required for teens aged 12 to 15 who will be operating a boat with a 6 horsepower or greater engine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I remind these kids that if you are going 30 miles per hour you are going 44 feet per second,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So you
donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have much time to avoid an accident.â&#x20AC;? About 100 youths each year go through the class, which is also required to operate a personal watercraft. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every year there are a hundred more kids in our county who have the knowledge to safely operate a boat,â&#x20AC;? Belanger said. In all there are less than a dozen boating accidents per year, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are safer for the most part now than they used to be. As the years have gone by more and more people have taken these boating classes,â&#x20AC;? Belanger said. Adults do not need a boater safety certificate to operate a boat, but Kalchik said the class is good for all boaters. Plus, he said, those who have taken it may qualify for a discount on their boaterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s insurance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We encourage anyone who is interested in becoming a safer boater to take the class,â&#x20AC;? Kalchik said. Adults do need a certificate if they will be operating a personal watercraft and were born after Dec. 31, 1978. Tristan Peabody, 15, of Leland, recently took the Leelanau County boating safety class in the hopes that his parents will buy him a personal watercraft. He liked the fact that the class was taught by a seasoned marine officer who told students actual stories about things that have gone wrong on the water. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It teaches you to be more cautious,â&#x20AC;? Peabody said. Just the day before, Peabody and 15-year-old Kyle Cavanaugh of Indiana, who also took the class, watched a friend get his hand stuck between two boats. The friend had to go to the hospital, they said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It actually can happen,â&#x20AC;?

BETTY WEAVER of Glen Arbor, in the Uncle Sam outfit, leads the Kazoo Marching Band in last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fourth of July Anything Goes Parade.
There are places where donning red, white and blue appears patriotic as in parades like those held next week in conjunction with the Fourth of July. And there are places where you display the red, white and blue that some might deem inappropriate or unpatriotic, like underwear. But in all cases, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a freedom afforded every American. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone has a right to wear red, white and blue anytime in any place,â&#x20AC;? said Glen Arborâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Betty Weaver, who appears very flag-like at the annual Glen Arbor Anything Goes Parade. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an American right.â&#x20AC;? Even in the case of a Leelanau County high school student who was chewed out for being unpatriotic in some eyes for his red, white and blue underwear in the last decade. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know the particulars in that situation, but every person has a right to wear the red, white and blue, even if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s their underwear,â&#x20AC;? said Weaver, the former Michigan chief justice and Leelanau County probate judge. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be careful who I was showing it to.â&#x20AC;? The opinion is held by others in authority. Suttons Bay attorney Dean Robb, who is active in the American Civil Liberties
TODD STACHNIK, staging coordinator at the First Church of Christ Scientist parking lot, poses with one his faves Betty Weaver before the start of last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parade.
Union, said he whole-heartedly supports the freedom to wear whatever item in red, white and blue. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Those are sort of our patriotic colors,â&#x20AC;? said Robb, who knows judicial friends who adorn themselves in the Uncle Sam suit and hat. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And I will defend their right to wear those colors anywhere at anytime.â&#x20AC;? Leelanau County Undersheriff Scott Wooters said law enforcement officials are not involved in the ethics of wearing the red, white and blue. But personally he also supports that right. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I salute the demonstration of being patriotic,â&#x20AC;? Wooters said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wear the colors at events when Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m off-duty because Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not interested in drawing any attention to myself.â&#x20AC;? Wooters said the Glen Arbor parade is a great example of patriotism. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To me Glen Arbor demonstrates faith in the country on the Fourth of July with a sea of red, white and blue,â&#x20AC;? he said. Weaver is front and center about her love of the red, white and blue as the leader of the Glen Arbor Kazoo Corps marching band. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got the kazoo in the mouth and the big hat and it is just lots of fun,â&#x20AC;? said Weaver. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love a parade and I love to have a good time in a nice way.â&#x20AC;? And she is adamant that wearing the colors is a good thing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wearing red, white and blue are three
colors that make people feel good as a rule,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s associated with patriotism. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know of any issues with it. I see a lot of good.â&#x20AC;? Weaver said wearing red, white and blue is similar to folks who wear their school colors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At sporting events you see one group with maize and blue and another in green and white showing off their colors,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Sousa’s “Northern Pines” turned out to be the last march he composed. He died on March 6, l932, following a rehearsal at Reading, Pennsylvania. Appropriately enough, the last piece he conducted was the “Stars and Stripes Forever.” * * * Although he didn’t write it, University of Michigan fans and alumni might find it interesting to know that “The Victors” was considered by Sousa to be “the greatest college fight song ever written.” Radio was “the thing” throughout the 1930s and the Enterprise would often print schedules of concerts, their content, and news of other broadcasts. Advertisements also appeared for radio sets which apparently sold well despite the fact they were relatively quite expensive (one sees a similar pattern for TV sets following World War II). There was no local radio station, as has been previously related, in what was then a rather lightly populated area, and reception, particularly in the daytime, could be poor Out East, a radio enthusiast saw the “gap” in the national network of stations and decided there was a future in Northern Michigan. Les Beiderman, with the assistance of his brother and several Philadelphia friends, established the area’s first fulltime radio station at Traverse City. WTCM took to the air early in 1941 and now there would be local music, news and sports, too. A few decades later, Interlochen Center for the Arts (so had the “Music Camp” grown) would establish its own FM radio station. On weekends Sousa marches are often requested – and played. John Philip Sousa understood well how people could be stirred and motivated by music, a fact not always appreciated by historians, who, all too frequently, concentrate on politics and give the fine arts short shrift. Eighty years have now elapsed since Sousa passed on, but his patriotic music is still as vibrant and stirring as when he first composed it.

Patriotic music. This is but one of the ways in which Americans observe the Fourth of July. In the days before radio and television, even the smallest of villages often had its own band. These weren’t high school bands, which came later, but were composed of community members of all ages. There were also numerous “Boys’ Bands” around the Midwest. One of these was the Boys’ Band of Wellington, Kan., formed in 1900. “School bands and orchestras were unheard of in those days,” Norma Lee Browning has written, relating that two brothers, Harry and Joseph Maddy, were among the first to join the Wellington Band. Fewer than thirty years later, Joe Maddy and a few others had established a camp for another generation of young musicians in the pines of Northern Michigan at Interlochen. It would become world famous. Interlochen, never to become more than a village, is said to have been so named because of its location between two lakes. But it was also “interlocked” by two rail lines. One, the Pere Marquette, ran east, and then north, to Traverse City. The other, the Manistee and Northeastern, ran north, looping into Leelanau County before reaching Traverse City. America’s immortal “March King,” John Philip Sousa, doubtless wrote more stirring patriotic music than anyone. He is perhaps best known for the rousing “Stars and Stripes Forever,” but he also wrote the Washington Post March, Semper Fidelis, El Capitan and — literally — scores of others. Finally, he wrote the “Northern Pines March,” inspired, late in his life, by visits to northern Michigan that included Leland. Sousa, who has been called the “Pied Piper of Patriotism,” was once quoted as saying that he thought a good march should “make goose pimples chase each other up and down your spine.”
With all this emphasis on patriotism, it is perhaps appropriate that Sousa was born in Washington, D.C. His father was a member of the Marine Corps Band and John Philip not only walked in his father’s footsteps, but out-strode him. Sousa led the Marine Corps Band for 12 years (1880-92) and was musical director of the U.S. Army during the Spanish-American War. During World War I, he formed bands at the Great Lakes Naval Training Station in Illinois. The Bandmaster/composer also toured extensively with his own band and made several trips to Europe to perform there. The National Music Camp was in its infancy when Sousa, in his later years, paid a few visits and took the podium at the new “Bowl.” It was here, on June 26, 1931, that the Northern Pines March (No. 136) was first publicly played and the event was broadcast. The later was no mean feat, as there was no radio station up here in the “Northwoods.” The Enterprise detailed some of the technical problems that were encountered in accomplishing this. There were, of course, no satellites then to relay transmissions. The newspaper went on to report that before he left the area, Sousa had been the guest, at Leland, of Karl Detzer and his wife. At that time, Detzer was a rather well-known author of light fiction and his work could be found, periodically, in the Leelanau Enterprise. Some years later, Detzer and his wife, Clarice, bought the newspaper, thinking it would be interesting and relaxing. He later wrote that “our only motive was to find a pleasant, easy occupation for our declining years, an interesting hobby.” It proved to be otherwise. “Our first issue, incidentally,” Detzer added, “we finally got out three days late, on a Saturday, with half the people in town trying to help.” Within five years (1948-53), the “hobby” was over and the Enterprise, once again, had new owners.

Treating ovarian cancer with the drug bevacizumab (Avastin) delays the disease and may also improve survival, show the results of an international clinical trial. The findings, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, report that the drug halted the cancer's return for two months overall. However, for women with the highest risk of contracting the disease, the delay was five to six months and in this group, the findings also indicated a strong trend to improved overall survival. *** Aspirin taken within five days of cardiac surgery is associated with a significant decrease in the risk of major postoperative complications, including renal failure, a lengthy intensive care unit stay and even early death (30-day mortality), according to a study in the journal Annals of Surgery. *** Rituximab, (trade names Rituxan and MabThera), a monoclonal antibody for human CD20, was shown to be safe in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) who had an incomplete response to the standard ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) therapy, also known as Ursodiol, in a study reported on in Hepatology. According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), PBC—an autoimmune liver disease characterized by inflammation of the bile ducts that ultimately causes bile to build up and damage the liver—typically occurs between the ages of 40 and 60, primarily affecting women. Currently, the standard therapy for PBC is UDCA or liver transplantation in patients who have progressed to end-stage liver disease. However, previous studies have shown that UDCA may be ineffective in up to 40% of PBC patients and 10% could require transplantation or die from the disease. *** Brought to you as a public service by

CHARLES GODBOUT of Empire believes the biggest threat to our representative democracy is the ability of the extremely wealthy to have undue influence over the election process.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;We really need to have a national discussion about what the appropriate role of government is,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What should government do because it is better, more efficient, or effective at or what must government do because the private sector is unwilling or unable to do it, and what government must do because it is prescribed in the Constitution and laws passed by our representative government.â&#x20AC;? Godbout suggested that equal access to health care is a right for all citizens which the private sector has not been able to deliver. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If equal access is a right, evolving from a citizenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inalienable rights to â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;life, liberty and the pursuit of happinessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; then it is our and governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s responsibility to insure that equal access is available to all our citizens,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;How we execute this responsibility may be open to discussion but whether we should or should not execute the responsibility is not.â&#x20AC;? Jim Fuscaldo of Centerville Township is a retired corporate attorney with a particular interest in history and Constitutional law. He explained that our founding fathersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; belief system was based on the theories of John Locke, an English philosopher, who discussed natural rights in his work, identifying them as being â&#x20AC;&#x153;life, liberty, and estate (property).â&#x20AC;? Locke believed
that such fundamental rights come from God â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not a king. German philosopher Georg Hegel, considered by many to have originated â&#x20AC;&#x153;progressiveâ&#x20AC;? thought, wrote that society is in a constant state of evolution and should be able to adapt laws to meet the needs of society. As German immigrants moved to the United States, the progressive movement took hold. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Constitution was a rigid document and was interpreted in such a way to allow those governing to meet the needs of society at that time in history,â&#x20AC;? Fuscaldo said. Loose interpretation of the Constitution is slowing eating away at individual rights. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Progressive government gives the people the right to do things explicitly prohibited by the Constitution,â&#x20AC;? Fuscaldo said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like going back to the days prior to the Revolution. But instead of a monarch, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a president and a super legislature.â&#x20AC;? Fuscaldo said thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a constant erosion of stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rights as they look to the federal government for assistance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s federal money involved there are always strings attached,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;States are so dependent on the government to bail them out that they are willing to give up those rights.â&#x20AC;?

The Boston Tea Party in 1773 was rooted in growing friction over Parliamentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to tax colonists who were not represented in the government. That act, almost 239 years ago, and the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Intolerable Actsâ&#x20AC;? put in place by the British in retaliation, set the stage for the American Revolution and the rights established through the War of Independence. Just like the colonists and Tories who differed in their positions on the role of government in the country, there are different takes on these rights and what the Constitution means today. It is because of the efforts of our forefathers that Americans enjoy many rights secured through ratification of the Bill of Rights in December 1791 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; chief among them, freedom of expression. We spoke with two county men who often exercised their freedom of speech. Charles Godbout of Empire is treasurer of the Leelanau County Democratic Party. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Tea Party was a response to â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;taxation without representation,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?said Godbout, adding that this directly resulted in our representative form of government. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The bicameral format of Senate and House of Representatives, with one man, one vote.â&#x20AC;? Godbout said that the biggest threat to our representative democracy is the ability of the extremely wealthy to have undue influence over the election process. Because of this, he said, expenditures and financial contributions from this group need to be limited to â&#x20AC;&#x153;restore balanceâ&#x20AC;? and voice to the majority of citizens, their voices are drowned out by money being thrown at political campaigns and candidates. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Move to Amendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; movement is one avenue being pursued to restore this balance to our election process,â&#x20AC;? Godbout said. While thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s talk about â&#x20AC;&#x153;small governmentâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;big government,â&#x20AC;? Godbout said we, as a country, need to be talking about â&#x20AC;&#x153;Right Sizeâ&#x20AC;? government.

Accordions, brass and drum kits give it sound, but it’s the laughter and dancing that make it a polka. Dancers rotate as couples move in unison — one foot chasing the other. The band maintains a lively tempo as the 2/4 time signature sets the pace. According to Cedar resident Agnes Williams, such traits make polka an upbeat genre. “It’s just a happy style of music,” the former band member said. “It’s hard not to smile during a polka.” During the mid 1970’s Williams became deeply involved in the polka culture, playing accordion for her band “Agnes and Her Polka Dotz.” For about 25 years she performed at venues throughout the state including Petoskey, Manistee and, of course, the Polka Fest in Cedar. Wherever they went though, she recalled happiness filling the atmosphere. “People were dancing, smiling and asking for more everywhere,” the 78-year-old said. “It didn’t matter if we were playing for people we knew or not, everyone just wanted to have a good time.” The genre can be traced back to the 1800s, originating in what’s now the present day Czech Republic. It reached widespread popularity in Europe and America throughout the 19th century, as immigrants began arriving in search of work. Overtime, the dance and music changed slightly as different ethnic styles began to blend together. Today, modern American polka might be a couple half steps away from it’s European roots, but the traditional “polka your problems away” mantra remains. “The dancing is so fast paced. The tempo and beat really get people moving,” Williams said. “It’s a perfect way for folks to clear their mind after a long work day.” The carefree message is well represented lyrically as well. Popular songs such as “Beer Barrel Polka” and “Who Stole the Kishka?” are testament to the concept of enjoying every moment. “The lyrics can be about simple things like favorite foods or drinking beer,” Williams laughed, “but they can also be about love, girlfriends or fun times with friends and family. But they’re never sad — it just wouldn’t sound right.”

Former accordion player from Cedar still loves a polka
ACCORDIONIST AGNES Williams is shown with her Cordovox accordion outside her Cedar home. Williams played in a band for nearly 25 years and wrote some original polkas such as “I’m a Polka Loving Grandma.” According to Williams, the lyrics are important, but it’s the rich, organ-like sound of the accordion that really gives the music it’s pep. Though some bands use fiddles and clarinets, the unique sound and look of the accordion make it the most recognized polka instrument. “It has keys on one side, like a piano and on the other there are bass buttons,” Williams explained. “You have to push it together and pull it apart to create the sound.” The motion drives air across reeds inside the bellows, the pleated portion of the instrument. Depressing specific keys and buttons, while changing the bellow’s direction, produces the desired sounds. “It’s quite different,” Williams said of her instrument. “It’s pretty heavy, so you can’t really support it on your own. You have to wear it in front of you by placing two straps over your shoulders.”
Williams career with bands ended in the late 90s, but not before she put together a few polkas of her own. Original songs such as “I’m a Polkaloving Grandma” and “Tennessee Yodel” might not have been played for an audience, but provided her with enjoyment. “The entire polka lifestyle is about enjoying the present,” she said. “There’s all different types of music kids listen to today, but none of them focus on enjoying life and just being happy.” Despite a nagging shoulder injury, Williams plans to attend the 31st Polka Fest for a chance to enjoy the laughter she provided listeners for nearly 25 years. With it being just a short walk from her house, it’s impossible to pass up the opportunity. “I can’t go the whole time, like I use to,” she chuckled, “but I’ll still dance if you ask me to. Just don’t forget to smile.”
