My Toledo, Buy Toledo

W

hen something you care about is attacked, it is natural to react with emotion and it can be difficult to refrain from striking back.

Whether you are called to defend a person, institution or ideal, it sometimes takes a moment of reason — a chance to take a breath and look at the bigger picture — to prepare an appropriate response.

I have been besieged by people asking if Toledo Free Press will respond to the recent media attention on so-called “blight.”

There is no question that our city has a lot of work to do to pick itself up, dust itself off and infuse new life in many of its neighborhoods, but none of that can be accomplished by any mere media organization unless it chooses to offer solutions.

In the coming weeks and months, Toledo Free Press will use its modest resources to help turn the conversation back to the positive aspects of Toledo. Not as an act of denial, but as a Thomas F. Pounds contribution to the home we love.

On the editorial side, Toledo Free Press editors are working on a monthly series that will spotlight the many local neighborhoods that are successfully revitalizing homes and businesses. We recently spotlighted the growth of the Warehouse District, and that story will serve as a model for the spotlight we intend to shine on the pockets of resistance that are fighting decay and cleaning up.

On the advertising side, Toledo Free Press is initiating a new program, “My Toledo, Buy Toledo.” We are asking supporters and businesses to join this movement by adding a special “My Toledo, Buy Toledo” logo to their ads, as a sign of support for the city and its people. Your sales representative can share the details with you; there are special pricing structures and an advertorial spotlight feature that can make it clear you and your business support Toledo’s ongoing evolution toward better days.

Local business, not media, is the key to rebuilding our city, and “My Toledo, Buy Toledo” seeks to magnify that movement.

Yes, we have a very long way to go, and yes, there needs to be recognition and discussion of the sad state of some of our buildings and neighborhoods.

But we also need to work together to celebrate the examples of people who are acting, not waiting.

It’s a small response, but with enough voices, maybe we can drown out the naysayers. It will require more than talk; spending money at our locally owned businesses is the most immediate and effective way to help. Talk to your sales rep about how you can show your pride and investment in Toledo through the “My Toledo, Buy Toledo” program. O Thomas F. Pounds is president and publisher of Toledo Free Press.

TO THE EDITOR, I am glad your June 29 issue focused on the debt we all owe the men and women in uniform who protect our country. Our veterans are the ones who make it possible for us to live in a free society and we should never forget the sacrifices they and their families make. Let’s remember them, not just on July 4, but every day of the year. Freedom is not free — it comes at a cost, one which is borne by the heroes in uniform. O STATE Sen. Edna Brown District 11

Hensville proposal is ‘mission creep’ TO THE EDITOR, I have followed with interest the Toledo Mud Hens organization plans regarding its announced Hensville development. As a taxpayer, as well as both a resident and business owner in the Warehouse District, I must object.

While I welcome, and in fact encourage new development in our neighborhood, I find this particular plan unsettling, to say the least. The Mud Hens organization exists to provide an entity to operate the countyowned ballpark. Taxpayers paid for construction of the current park based on a proposal by county officials to relocate the team Downtown

as a catalyst for redevelopment in the Warehouse District. More recently, the Huntington Center was built and its operation was added to the Mud Hens’ responsibility.

It seems to be a rather straightforward mission: Provide a baseball field, convince a Major League team to play its Triple-A minor league games here, and the organization sells tickets, food and beverages to cover its expenses, while the community gets an asset that it enjoys, and which draws others to the community to spend their entertainment dollars.

This formula has, so far, worked famously. In addition, and as county leaders envisioned, the influx of fans, coupled with the expanding resident base, has encouraged people like me to invest in building businesses in the neighborhood. Some have prospered and some have not, but overall the neighborhood is thriving and growing.

However, in what may be the most egregious case of mission creep I have ever witnessed, the Mud Hens now want to be in the bar, restaurant and arcade businesses. There is absolutely no justification for them to be involved in any of those businesses, nor anything else not directly involved in operating Fifth Third Field and the Huntington Center.

There is no guarantee that these ventures will succeed, and the odds are greatly diminished when the owner lacks necessary experience. If unsuc-

n MILLER CONTINUED FROM 3 The Glades is one of the most peaceful places I have ever been. The air is humid and heavy; the sawgrass, swamp plants and trees look they were imported from another world; and the birds soar from perch to perch with no awareness of powerlines, utility poles and the signature violations mankind uses to pound wilderness into submission.

We witnessed a true “Wild Kingdom” moment when a large turtle ambling near the boat was suddenly snapped up and taken underwater by an alligator that did not seem to care he was being watched by a number of kids.

Having conquered the Glades, we later took the boys on another wildlife excursion — to Chuck E. Cheese for a birthday lunch. I did not check into it, but I wonder if Penn National Gaming owns Chuck E. Cheese as it owns Hollywood Casino Toledo. The Chuck is a perfect training ground for future casino patrons: It is loud, pulses with flashing lights and runs on the rhythm of people feeding coins in machines hoping to turn their token-by-token investment into a pile of winnings.

After their pizza lunch, we walked the boys around the games, letting them pump tokens into machines that required various feats of “skill” to win tickets that could be traded in for prizes. Evan loves rolling the solid brown ball into the skee ball targets, and as he did so, three much younger children strolled up and began taking his game balls from the tray and trying to snatch his tickets. I started to intervene but held back to see how Evan would handle the intrusion. I was proud of

cessful, taxpayers will be on the hook for the losses. Further complicating things is talk of the project receiving millions in tax dollars for construction via the state capital improvement budget. How on earth could anyone not see this as the inappropriate and ill-advised scheme that it is?

Many individuals, like me, have taken great financial risk in their efforts to start a business here. Those that failed suffered devastating losses.

We did not get tax dollars meant for roads, bridges, public buildings and improvements to the physical infrastructure of the state to pay for our construction. But now it seems that some believe it appropriate to risk tax dollars on what should be private sector ventures. Adding insult to injury, all of us who have assumed great financial risk in starting our businesses would then be faced with taxsubsidized competition.

The Mud Hens board needs to understand why it exists, realize that it should stick to its mission and get a grasp of the most basic of business principles: if your revenue does not cover your expenses, it is a bad idea. It appears that, absent tax subsidy, Hensville is exactly that — a bad idea. As a side note, about the Hensville name, the Warehouse District already has a name, and we wear it proudly. O JIM METTLER Owner, Ye Olde Cock n’ Bull

Evan as he not only calmly retrieved his tickets and game balls but reached into his pocket and gave each of the little kids a token so they could go on their own way. I smiled but did not say anything as Evan immediately went back to trying to turn $20 in tokens into $3 in prizes.

As we neared the end of our time at Chuck E. Cheese, Sean, out of tokens, approached Evan and asked for a few of his. Evan shook his head and said no.

“Now, why would you give those strangers a token but not share with your brother?” I asked.

Evan, who seemed surprised I knew about the incident, said, “It looked like they didn’t have any but Sean had as many as I did and it’s not my fault he used them all.”

There was a swirl of warm empathy and cold logic to his thinking, and I had to fight to keep from smiling as I admonished Evan to share a few token tokens with Sean.

As we herded the boys toward the door, the image of Evan in his from-the-future photo and his sophisticated token-handling combined to give me that odd sense of unease at how fast he and his brother are growing up.

I can’t wait to see the men they will become, but I’m not ready to let go of the little boys they are.

Which shows their old man may have some growing up of his own left to do. O Michael S. Miller is editor in chief of Toledo Free Press and news director for Newsradio 1370 WSPD. Email him at mmiller@toledofreepress.com.

n ARMORY CONTINUED FROM 6 During its heyday, it was one of this city’s grand places to have dinners, see shows, hear bands and dance. These attractions were of course in addition to its regular use as a Naval training station and induction center during World War II. While there have been some discussions as to what its future holds,

I have learned that there is renewed interest to give this monument to our civic pride a new tomorrow.

The nonprofit historical group the Last Patrol is talking with the current owner, Roger Homrich Jr., about purchasing the 100,000-square-foot building and the surrounding property to become a regional training center for young cadets from the U.S. Naval

water frontage could easily accommodate a military museum ship.

The Last Patrol

The Last Patrol is a group of likeminded Toledo-area folks, headed up by brothers John and Jeff Nowakowski, who are also very active in the local Sea Cadets program based in Perrysburg Township. The Last Patrol was originally formed to teach and preserve military history and to display that history on the homefront.

One of their early goals was to bring a retired Navy or Coast Guard ship to the area as a floating museum, but that has yet to happen.

Their most recent attempt to acquire the Toledo-built USS Storis, a WWII-era Coast Guard cutter, ended late last year when the U.S. government sold the historic Storis to an Australian salvage company, which towed the ship to a cutting yard in Mexico, where it has already been cannibalized for salvage.

No doubt that it would have made

an impressive display in Toledo, had it been allowed to come home to the city where it was built at the shipyards on Maumee River. Alas, it was not to be and I will write about the tragic demise of the USS Storis in the future.

Undaunted by the loss of the Storis, the Nowakowski brothers and the Last Patrol remain determined to not only tell the story of the American military, but also to expand the group’s mission: To create a national youth training center at the historic Bay View Naval Armory for the U.S. Navy’s Sea Cadet Corps and the Navy League Cadet Corps.

Their vision is to create a place where not only the Cadets could train and learn, but would also be a training venue for other youth groups such as local schools, the Sea Scouts, the Girl and Boy Scouts, the Young Marines or the Civil Air Patrol. Students would be housed on a special dormitory barge moored along the riverfront. n ARMORY CONTINUES ON 8

Community

n ARMORY CONTINUED FROM 7 While the vision for this center certainly has a big “wow” factor, it will take more than dreams to bring this aging icon back to life. It will require lots of work and time and of course, lots of dollars. Millions in fact. $6 million to $10 million, for a start. But the Nowakowski brothers don’t view the huge price tag as a impossible obstacle.

John and Jeff and other members of the Last Patrol think it can be done through a combination of community support, donations, sponsors, grants and naming rights. John says he and his brother Jeff are committed to this project.

“Our parents instilled in us a great love for our nation and our history.

Me being a Marine, also helped. We tried doing the museum idea ... but then we got involved with the Navy Sea Cadets and saw how much it helped the kids. The idea of combining our dreams with a program that just does good for the community just seemed to make sense.”

The first hurdle is obtaining the money to buy the armory from its current owner, the Homrich family of Monroe, who bought it from the City of Toledo in 2004 for about $100,000.

Their hopes of turning it into a boat storage facility never materialized, although they made numerous repairs to the building to keep it from falling

The price tag for the Last Patrol would be about $600,000. John Nowakowski is not sure exactly where that initial acquisition money will come from, but believes that if the Last Patrol can get the word out to the community about their vision and plans for Liberty Station they feel strongly that it could trigger a wave of support to get the money to buy the armory property. Once that is done, then they'll have something tangible to work with and show to the public.

Here’s what they would see. Built in 1935 and 1936 by the Works Progress Administration (WPA), the fourstory Bay View armory was designed as a training facility and process center for the Navy prior to World War II. Interestingly, like many area structures built by the WPA during the lean years of the Depression, much of the structure was built using salvaged materials from other local historic buildings that were not preserved. The legacies of those old Toledo structures still live on in the brick and sandstone that grace the impressive façade of armory.

The interior of the armory was designed to reflect the interior of a ship, and even featured a ship’s bridge that overlooks the massive drill and parade deck on the second floor . It is so large that it became one of the city’s largest venues for public events during the

1940s and ’50s. Even through the 1960s, the armory’s deck was still being used for high school proms and graduation ceremonies, in addition to its regular schedule of dinners and other public events. The 7-acre grounds upon which it sits, also provides a lush park-like surrounding of greenery, trees and a magnificent view of Maumee Bay and the Maumee River.

But, sadly, the interior and exterior need a lot of labor and love to restore it to a useable condition. The roof has lingering weak spots and some of the façade stone and ornate detail work has been loosened and lost to time and gravity. The interior, I am told, is not much better than it was when I got inside to take photos while the City still owned it 10 years ago. Water damage, cracks in walls and rusted metal are the common sight in the warren of rooms and work areas of the building.

But vision and leadership require looking past what something is, and seeing what something can be. That will be paramount here. And certainly what John and Jeff Nowakowski possess as they look beyond the busted windows and the peeling paint of the once-grand armory is a shiny dream.

They believe others in the community will see it with them and join them to make it a reality. O Email Toledo Free Press columnist Lou Hebert at letters@toledofreepress.com.

Four businesses named to EBE Hall of Fame

By Sarah Ottney

TOLEDO FREE PRESS MANAGING EDITOR sottney@toledofreepress.com

TOLEDO FREE PRESS PHOTO BY SARAH OTTNEY

Four area businesses were recently named this year’s Entrepreneurial & Business Excellence Hall of Fame (EBE HOF) honorees and the group also announced plans to form a group just for women.

Honored for business excellence are American Broadband + Telecommunications, Hanson Inc. and The Oasis Restaurant & Delivery. Honored for excellence in family business is Rima Manufacturing Company.

The EBE HOF recognizes outstanding entrepreneurs and business leaders who have built and sustained growing businesses and created jobs in the region, said Adam Davenport, EBE HOF chairman and president of Gorillas & Gazelles, founding sponsor of the event.

The companies will be inducted during a public ceremony Nov. 6 at The Pinnacle, 1772 Indian Wood Circle, Maumee. Networking will start at 5:30 p.m. with the first set of awards announced at 6:30 p.m. Cocktails and hors d’oeuvres will be served and a cash bar will be available. Tickets are $85 with various sponsorship packages also available.

The winner of the DavenportLongenecker Lifetime Achievement Award will be announced at the event.

The EBE HOF began as the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year program

in 1989, brought to the area by Adam’s father, Larry Davenport. In 2006, Gorillas & Gazelles founded the EBE HOF, which took over the inductions.

More than 700 people attended last year’s induction ceremony and the event grows each year, Adam said.

“That proves and validates that we are doing something really great for the community and people need to know about the positive aspects going on in this area,” he said. “Every year, I get so many calls and emails after the event saying, ‘Oh my gosh, I did not know those companies even existed.’

The motivation all of the honorees give year after year is just truly astounding.”

Nominees come from businesses within about 60 miles of Toledo and winners are chosen by an independent panel of judges.

“Particularly as our Fortune 500 base has diminished, the entrepreneurial base has done a marvelous job of filling in for it in Northwest Ohio,” Larry said.

Partnering with Bowling Green State University has been great for EBE HOF, he said.

The university brings about 100 students to the event as ambassadors and for networking and learning opportunities, said Kirk Kern, director of BGSU’s Dallas-Hamilton Center for Entrepreneurial Leadership.

“What we’re trying to do is get students started on the right track,” Kern said. “This gives them the opportunity to look to the future and say, ‘Listen,

if I start my company today, five years from now, 10 years from now, 20 years from now, look where I could be and be recognized.’”

EBE HOF also partners with BGSU on its E-Week, or Entrepreneurship

Week, in April, which features a startup business competition called The Hatch.

As many as 12 student finalists chosen to go through a 10-week training course with BGSU professors and alumni entrepreneurs compete.

Starting last year for the 25th anniversary of the business awards, the EBE HOF started hosting speakers and other events throughout the year. n EBE HOF CONTINUES ON 11

“A lot of people love that we did that,” Adam said. “One of the things we want to focus on this year is what we going to do for the next 25 years.

“Each year we get bigger and better and bring different ideas. There are a few things we have in the works this year that we hope are going to blow away the audience. They are going to say, ‘Oh my gosh, it’s not just the ceremony anymore.’”

Women of EBE

Also new this year will be the formation of Women of EBE, a branch of the EBE HOF for female inductees as well as member spouses. The group will officially start in August with a speaker planned for October.

Adam’s wife, Terra Davenport, came up with the idea and recruited EBE HOF executive committee member Megan Stockburger, owner of Events by Megan, and Michelle Beczynski, wife of 2013 honoree Ed Beczynski, to help organize the group.

“Our goal is to re-engage,” Stockburger said. “We wanted to engage these women to connect, discuss similar experiences, support local businesses and inspire relationships between each other.”

Larry said he knows the organization is in good hands moving forward.

“I’m very encouraged by the current leadership’s efforts to make it a year-round event and keep the HOF members active and I’m particularly encouraged by the addition of the Women of EBE,” Larry said.

The event is presented by BGSU College of Business’ Dallas-Hamilton Center for Entrepreneurial Leadership. Other sponsors include Davenport, Hanf & Company LLC; BDO; Regional Growth Partnership; JobsOhio; and the University of Toledo.

“It’s the business event of the year,” Larry said.

12 Marathon Classic

A Toledo tradition since 2005 ToledoFreePress.com

July 13, 2014

Children’s charities focus of annual golf tourney

TOLEDO FREE PRESS MANAGING EDITOR sottney@toledofreepress.com

The attention of the golf world turns to Northwest Ohio once a year during the LPGA’s Marathon Classic, set for July 17-20 at Highland Meadows Golf Club in Sylvania. But for tournament staff and hundreds of local volunteers, preparing for the tournament is a year-round job — one they take extra pride in because it helps raise millions of dollars for area children’s charities.

From parking cars to quieting crowds to serving food, it takes about 1,000 volunteers to operate the tournament, said Heather Warga, who has been volunteer coordinator since September 2002.

More than 75 percent are returners, she said. About 10 percent have been volunteering more than 20 years, including a few who have worked since the start of the tournament in 1984. Ages range from those in their mid-80s to Warga’s 6-year-old son, who will help hand out water bottles. Charities and sponsors are providing about 300 of the volunteers, including about 140 from title sponsor Marathon Petroleum. Most come from Northwest Ohio, but they also hail from Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky and even Texas, Warga said.

“It’s the only local tournament where you can see athletes at the level of Paula Creamer, Michelle Wie, Stacy Lewis and, if they hit the ball near the ropes, you’re 2 feet from them, not nosebleed level,” said 70-year-old Lee Meserve, a Bowling Green State University professor who has volunteered at the tournament since it moved to Highland Meadows from the current Stone Oak Country Club in 1989.

“For some reason I didn’t go to the tournament the first year it happened.

The second year, I was there four days. The third year I went every day.

I thought, ‘If I’m gonna be there the

Get

whole time, I might as well give them my time.’ It’s just a really fun way to help the community.”

Since 1984, the tournament has donated $8.1 million to more than 100 Northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan children’s charities. Last year, 23 charities shared $378,000 in proceeds.

“The best thing about my job is I get to work with so many awesome people who take time out of their summer to volunteer,” Warga said.

“We have become a family. We are all in this for one common goal and that is to be able to give back to our community and the deserving charities who are making the difference in children’s lives every day.”

Charities

Ronald McDonald House Charities of Northwest Ohio and the Jamie Farr Scholarship Fund are charity recipients every year. This year’s other charity recipients are Anne Grady Services, The Arts Partnership of Hancock County, CASA Volunteer Association (Monroe), CASA Volunteer Association (Toledo), Camp Fire Northwest n VOLUNTEER COORDINATOR HEATHER WARGA OVERSEES MORE THAN 1,000 VOLUNTEERS AT THE MARATHON CLASSIC EACH YEAR.

Volunteers

Grounds Chairman Jeff Easton of Sylvania Township started volunteering when someone asked him to help. He had some ideas to improve efficiency and soon found himself chairman of the crew responsible for roping and staking the course and erecting light structures, portable toilets, signs and more. Nineteen years later, he’s still on the job.

“Whenever I get frustrated, I think of all the children in our local area who benefit from that tournament and that’s a wonderful thing,” Easton said. “It’s great for the community and great publicity for the area.”

The task of making sure all the players get where they need to be falls to Dan Balduf, 60, of Curtice, a retired City of Oregon employee in his 26th year as a tournament volunteer. As director of transportation, he picks up players and other celebrities from the airport, shuttles them to their hotels and takes them anywhere else they need to go.

“It’s fun to meet the golfers right up front when there’s no pressure on them, when they’re right off the plane in a relaxed condition,” he said.

Unlike most crews, the transportation volunteers are least busy during tournament play.

“That’s our downtime, when players are playing,” Balduf said.

Weather-delayed flights have found Balduf sleeping in his car in a parking lot. His farthest trip was to the airport in Cleveland.

“It was a Swedish golfer in her first year and she didn’t know how far that was,” Balduf said. “My wife says I’m crazy. It’s a lot of volunteer hours for one week, but I enjoy it.”

Paul LaCourse, 69, of Toledo, a retired Lake Erie charter boat operator, has been volunteering with the Ronald McDonald House on the 10th hole since he retired 13 years ago.

“I’m a huge sports fan and I love golf,” LaCourse said. “It’s a great way to see the tournament, get inside the ropes, talk to the players and get involved.

“If something great happens on the course like a hole-in-one or an eagle, we hear about things like that over the radio. News travels pretty quickly.

“I’m on the hole seven days from daylight till dark. It’s getting a little harder for me because I’m getting up there in age and the sun gets pretty hot, but I enjoy it so much. I’d be out there watching it anyway, so I figure I might as well put in my time.”

Volunteerism for the tournament has dropped over the past few years and it’s particularly challenging to attract younger volunteers, Warga said.

“The hard part is to get people to commit the first time, but once they come out, they usually stick around for quite a few years,” LaCourse said.

Meserve estimated he spends at

least 100 hours at the course during tournament week.

“There are people who are really committed to this and it’s not because of the benefits for you as an individual; it’s what the tournament does for kids’ charities in Northwest Ohio,” Meserve said.

‘The Great Flood’

Among the most memorable tournaments for many longtime volunteers was 2006, or — as most refer to it — the year of “The Great Flood.”

“Weather is definitely a huge factor for us because no matter what the tournament has to go on,” Warga said.

That year, heavy rain caused standing water and the creek running through the golf course to overflow.

Scaffolding and bridges were built over flooded areas and volunteers pitched in extra hours squeegeeing water off the fairways.

“I remember people coming from the neighborhood on rafts. That was crazy. That’s a sight you’re not used to seeing,” Warga said. “I just remember thinking, ‘There’s no way we’re going to be able to finish this,’ but so many people pitched in that year to make it possible, people from all the different golf courses around Toledo and the surrounding areas. It was amazing.”

Last year’s weather challenge was heat — “hotter than the hinges of hell,” as Meserve described it.

“I try not to look at the weather.

It makes me nervous,” Warga said, laughing. “But I broke down last night and looked at the forecast for this year and it was really good.”

A Toledo tradition since 2005 ToledoFreePress.com enger hunts and a golf simulator will be offered 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. July 17-20.

Police, fire, military

All active-duty police officers, firefighters and military members will be admitted free along with one guest.

“That’s what this tournament is all about, is giving back,” Tournament Director Judd Silverman said. “To be able to allow active service people into the tournament is just another way to help

the community and provide an opportunity for people to come out and enjoy the greatest women golfers in the world.”

Local active military members will be spotlighted July 20 at the 18th green.

Tickets are available at Kroger stores or online at marathonclassic.com.

Prices are $50 for a weekly grounds badge, $100 for a weekly clubhouse badge or $15 (Monday-Friday) to $20 (Saturday-Sunday) for daily passes.

When purchased in advance at Kroger

July 13, 2014 stores, the weekly grounds badge is buy one, get one free. All ticket proceeds go to the charity of your choice. Parking is $10 for the week or $5 daily.

“It’s just a nice community gathering to support some very deserving children’s charities,” Warga said. “At the end, when you see that result, that’s what it’s all about.” O Toledo Free Press Staff Writer Sanya Ali contributed to this report.

Jamie Farr

Many longtime volunteers met or got to know Toledo native Jamie Farr during his years of hands-on involvement with the tournament, which bore his name until last year.

“He’s a really nice guy. The City of Toledo is his heart and soul,” Meserve said But they are also excited to be part of the tournament’s future with Marathon.

“It’s found a new path and a new course and I think it’s going to be more successful than ever, and I think we’re all excited to be part of that,” Easton said.

Kids Zone

Admission for children 17 and younger has always been free with the purchase of an adult ticket, but this year will feature activities for kids, said Director of Marketing Jim Decker.

NASCAR driver Richard Petty will sign autographs 10 a.m. to noon and 1-3 p.m. July 17. July 18 will feature mascot day (10 a.m. to 2 p.m.) and a photobooth (10 a.m. to noon).

Marathon Classic 17

A Toledo tradition since 2005

18 Marathon Classic

July 13, 2014

A Toledo tradition since 2005 ToledoFreePress.com

By Tom Konecny

Toledo Free Press Staff Writer news@toledofreepress.com

The 14th hole at the Marathon Classic, also known as Club 14, is entering its third year of delivering an amped-up atmosphere more commonly found in stadium sports.

What started as an idea to host business networking on the Friday of the tournament has now morphed into an exuberant party hole for fans and golfers. It’s fast becoming an event favorite where golf doesn’t necessarily follow tradition and where fans may not always behave themselves. Prizes are tossed into the stands, interaction is encouraged, cheering is a bit louder than usual and fun is improvised.

“It’s all in good fun,” said Tournament Director Judd Silverman. “It’s been a lot of fun to watch it grow and we’re hoping for a huge crowd out there.

It’s a great way to spend an afternoon.”

The typically quiet spectators at a golf match offer notable contrast to more raucous crowds found in sports such as football, hockey or auto racing. So event organizers welcome Club 14’s enthusiasm and hope to win fans who may not

be sure how to conduct themselves at a sport that’s known for having the ambiance of an outdoor library.

“Certainly for people who hadn’t been to the tournament before, this might be the reason they come out,” said Jim Decker, director of marketing.

This year, the Marathon Classic builds upon the success of prior years by introducing the new Labatt Blue Royale Party Deck, an elevated, covered platform with seating, TVs, and complimentary Labatt beer, drinks and snacks. Party deck tickets are $50 each, and Decker expects them to sell out on Friday due to the networking popularity. The Labatt Bear mascot may make an appearance as well.

Even the golfers themselves welcome Club 14’s fresh, new attitude toward the game, Silverman said, especially if it means drawing more people to the sport.

“The players have been tremendous and really embraced it,” he said.

“It’s just one more great experience for the fans. It’s a little unique and fun.”

Although the crowd at Club 14 is much livelier and more energetic, it’s not as though the hole boasts no rules and an anything goes attitude.

“There’s still rules,” Decker said.

“They’re certainly not cheering when players are hitting a shot. They don’t show any disrespect by booing. We have marshals out there to try and make sure they’re showing respect for the players. It’s just a much more lively atmosphere.”

The Club 14 concept originated with the PGA Tour’s Phoenix Open, and although one other LPGA event has tried something similar, Toledo’s was the first in the league.

Decker knew the idea had staying power during the first year when caddies — not just the golfers — had their brief moment to be stars and garner cheers.

“The first year we had it, some of the biggest roars were when one of the first caddy races took place,” Decker said. “There was a huge roar and the fans were really getting into it, and the caddies really got into it.”

Marathon Classic planners chose the 14th hole based on its logistics, and due to its ideal length.

“It works best on a par 3 [hole] so all the fans see the tee shot, and there’s more excitement,” Decker said. “Last year on Sunday of tournament week

there was a hole-in-one.”

Club 14 lasts all day July 18, but crowd size and fervor seem to rise especially during the afternoon, Decker said.

There will also be a photobooth set up by local company twine.it.

If the Club 14 enthusiasm and addition of the party deck wasn’t

enough, the Marathon Classic is also expanding its free active military, police and firefighter admission by offering an accompanying guest for free.

Children 17 and younger also get in free with a paid adult.

Toledo-born, No. 1-ranked Stacy Lewis ready to compete

I

n a recent one-on-one interview with Toledo-born Stacy Lewis, the top-ranked female golfer in the world covered a wide range of subjects.

Lewis, 29, just won her third title of the year and has finished inside the Top 10 in 12 of 14 starts in 2014.

After taking the first-round lead with a nearly perfect 3-under-par 67 at the U.S. Women’s Open, Lewis struggled in the second and third rounds at Pinehurst to finish runner-up, two shots behind Michelle Wie. “You know, I’m a grinder, I’m a

fighter,” Lewis said. “I was happy to finish off the tournament strong and just to know that I can miss a few shots and still have a chance to win.”

Asked to rate the best young players on the LPGA Tour right now, Lewis praised Lexi Thompson.

Play Hard.

“The music is pretty much an expression of joy and stems from our common heritage. We try to get everybody [in the audience] to participate.

Thirsty Houligans lament ‘Xmas in Jail’ on CD

By Jordan Finney Toledo Free Press Staff Writer jfinney@toledofreepress.com

“Xmas in Jail” — Thirsty Houligans’ contribution to the American Red Cross benefit CD “Red, White & You, Too!” ­— boasts a country flair that ventures to the fringe of the band’s trademark music style. They call it “Rust Belt Folk ’n’ Roll,” a blend of Irish and Appalachian folk, alternative rock, old-school country and rockabilly.

“It’s a little different than most of the stuff we do — [it] leans more toward country, but I’m really

happy with how it turned out,” said Mic Graves.

Toledo Free Press Editor in Chief Michael S. Miller, who produced the benefit CD, said the Houligans’ song inspired the “Christmas in July” portion of the CD. “I loved the track but it didn’t fit with the [TFP Make-A-Wish benefit CD] holiday theme,” Miller said. “Put-in-Bay’s Christmas in July is a fun part of summer, so pairing the Houligans with the Extra Stout version of ‘Christmas in Killarney’ struck me as a quirky and fun touch.” n Xmas CONTINUES ON 22

“The lyrics are nothing from personal experience, but everybody knows somebody like that, at least I do,” Graves said.

“I wrote the song on a spring or summer afternoon a few years ago sitting on a sofa in Tokyo, Japan. I don’t know why. Maybe I was feeling

a little homesick.”

Graves said he never noticed anything spectacular about Toledo until he left it behind to live in Tokyo for nine years.

After deciding to come back to the Glass City, Graves introduced “Xmas in Jail” to one of his former bands but it didn’t go anywhere.

After bringing the Toledo-inspired song to Thirsty Houligans, it was an immediate hit.

“People really like it. Some of the guys would like to play that song at every concert, but I have this thing about confining Christmas songs to

Christmas,” Graves said.

“Xmas in Jail” is one of Thirsty Houligans’ many original compositions. The five-man band also plays popular covers.

The members of Thirsty Houligans feel ecstatic that “Xmas in Jail” will be “part of something bigger” as a part of “Red, White & You, Too!,” Graves said.

The CD is available at all local Frisch’s Big Boy and Ralphie’s restaurants for $10, which includes a $4 coupon to those eateries. One hundred percent of sales goes to the American Red Cross of Northwest of Ohio. O

munity Foundation to help increase opportunities for local performers,” Bunch said. “One of the things the performers were telling us was there’s not a lot of opportunities for them to perform and get paid for doing so.”

This inspired Bunch and his associates to create an event which highlights musicians of all backgrounds and skill sets in order to increase their fan bases and further their careers.

Dolfish, a singer-songwriter in Cleveland Heights, will join the lineup again this year at the Ottawa Tavern.

“He loves the city and has agreed to come back for this,” Bunch said. “He headlines all kinds of events and is really well-known in his genre. ” Larry Meyer, drummer for acoustic Americana band Old State Line, uses his experience as a musician when serving as a volunteer on the planning committee.

“Playing the festival every year has given me some insight into things that need to be in place in terms of infrastructure, providing a [production assistant] in each venue, and things like that,” Meyer said.

Old State Line will play at The Attic on Adams, which Meyer claims is a rare opportunity since the venue typically doesn’t host live bands.

“It’s really exciting to be part of the festival and to play, but the trade-off is having that block of time spoken for and not being able to go out and see as

many other bands as I’d otherwise like to,” Meyer said.

Meyer also stated the beauty of the event is mixing well-known bands in with lesser-known bands, providing opportunity for networking.

Other bands include Nathan Roberts & the New Birds, DJ What the Bleep and Katie’s Randy Cat. The full lineup can be viewed at www.theartscommission.org/ programs/soundtrek.

Bunch added any one of these performers can be the next big thing.

A few participating venues are Ottawa Tavern, The Truth Art Gallery, Manhattan’s and Wesley’s.

Although one of the biggest challenges in organizing SoundTrek is coordinating schedules between several bands and venues, Bunch credits the community as a whole for making the event work so well.

Bunch said there will be an afterparty at Wesley’s and many other venues will have events following the festival.

Meyer added, “It’s really nice because it’s so concentrated. All these bands are playing at venues on one line of sight up and down Adams Street. It’s like a big party.”

Wristbands to SoundTrek are $10 in advance, $15 the night of show or $5 for individual venue admission. Purchases can be made at www. theartscommission.org or by calling (419) 254-2787. O

Downtown walking tour highlights food, art, history

A local mom and daughter team are set to launch a new business showcasing Downtown Toledo by way of its culinary offerings while also highlighting its architecture and history.

Toledo Flavors Food Tours kicked off July 10. The three-hour walking tour will be offered 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Thursdays and Saturdays and will include tastings at six Downtown

eateries as well as stops at several Downtown businesses and plenty of historical and architectural highlights.

Culinary samples will include a hotdog and pickles from Packo’s at the Park, a Garbage Salad from Grumpy’s on-the-Go, a danish from All Crumbs Artisan Bakery, fair-trade coffee from Downtown Latte, shepherd’s pie from The Blarney Irish Pub and charcuterie, crackers, cheese and grape juice from Veritas Cork & Craft, a wine bar opening soon at the Commodore Perry building. Between food

tastings, groups will stop at Fifth Third Field, Erie Street Market, Shared Lives Studio and public art installations like The Arts Commission’s artist-designed bike racks, frog statues and yarnbombs.

DiAnn Guerrero of Graytown has been thinking about starting a food tour in Toledo for years, but the busi-

ness started coming together earlier this year when she and her daughter, Mallory Guerrero of Sylvania, went on a food tour during a family trip to Las Vegas in March.

“My mom likes to go on food tours and she’s done quite a few of them,” Mallory said. “She was like, ‘Wouldn’t

it be cool if Toledo had a food tour?’

We had hours to brainstorm the possibilities on the plane ride home and a month later we were actually starting one. It was just a ‘Wouldn’t it be cool?’ kind of conversation that turned into a full-fledged business.” n TOUR CONTINUES ON 25

n TOUR CONTINUED FROM 24 “I had actually been thinking about it a long time before then,” DiAnn said.

“I’d traveled with some friends to New York, San Francisco, Knoxville. We had done food tours and we always thought it would be cool for Toledo to have one, but the timing never seemed right. Years went by and with all the

stuff happening Downtown now, I thought, ‘Maybe now’s the time.’”

To prepare, they attended a food tour seminar in Chicago, then started doing research and talking to restaurants. They also sought advice from The Arts Commission, Downtown Toledo Pub Club, the Toledo Warehouse District Association and others.

Some food tours only involve res-

taurants and are more like progressive dinners, Mallory said, but all DiAnn’s favorite tours have also incorporated history and architecture, so that’s what they wanted to bring to Toledo.

“That in my mind is the best kind of food tour,” DiAnn said. “The ones I’ve liked the most have been the ones that have gotten us acclimated to the downtown or the city. Espe-

cially in bigger cities like Chicago or New York, where they take you on the side streets and make you feel like you would be comfortable going back and walking to one of those locations from your hotel.”

DiAnn, an accountant, handles the business side of the venture, while Mallory, who works in human resources and has more than 12 years’ experience as a server and restaurant manager, is the tour guide.

Grumpy’s launching its Grumpy’s on the Go food truck was good timing for the tour, Mallory said.

“We really wanted Grumpy’s to be part of the tour, but they aren’t open on Saturdays, so we were really excited when they decided to open Grumpy’s on the Go because it allowed it to be part of the tour,” Mallory said. “We’ve gotten a lot of really good feedback from that.”

Bill Kline, general manager at The Blarney, said he was excited to hear about the venture.

“It’s a fantastic way to showcase The Blarney and all the fabulous Downtown hotspots,” Kline said. “We are all for encouraging new business Downtown and assisting those that assist us in bringing new business. It really was a no-brainer.”

As word has spread, some restaurants and businesses have approached the organizers.

“The Mud Hens actually contacted us,” DiAnn said. “We knew we’d obviously talk about the Mud Hens during the tour, but we didn’t think they’d actually meet with us so we didn’t initially reach out. So when they called us and wanted to share their story with us, we were very excited about that.”

The goal is to introduce more people to what’s available Downtown and help them feel comfortable there, Mallory said.

“Unless you live or work Downtown, a lot of people are reluctant to come down here outside of an event,” she said. “We just want to help educate people that there is a lot to do down here and it’s really not a scary place and has a lot to offer.”

“Wow, I never noticed that till she pointed it out,” “I never had fried pickles before — delicious,” “I’ve never been down here before” and “I’m going to come back here for sure” were among the comments from participants overheard during a recent practice tour.

Randy Lake of Toledo, who works with DiAnn, took the tour with his wife, Janna, and their neighbor Cindy Cook.

“I thought three hours was going to be too long, but it was perfect,” Janna said. “I cannot wait for Veritas to open and I will come back to The Blarney for the shepherd’s pie.”

“I liked learning the history of Toledo. There were a lot of things I didn’t know,” Cook said. “As far as food, that Danish pastry was really good.”

The tour will likely change as they learn new information or other businesses want to get involved, Mallory said.

“I’ll never proclaim to know all there is to know about Toledo, so as the tour evolves I’m sure I will become even more educated and people on the tours will probably know things I don’t and can add to the conversation,” Mallory said.

The tours will be offered through September, possibly longer depending on weather and interest, Mallory said. Cost is $42 for adults and $30 for children 12 and younger.

Each tour is limited to 10 people. Gift certificates are available.

Concert to celebrate ‘Red, White & You, Too!’ Eight of the artists who donated their original tracks to this year’s TFP “Red, White & You, Too!” CD, benefiting the American Red Cross of Northwest Ohio, will gather 7p.m. July 29 at Hollywood Casino Toledo for a summer concert to promote the project.

Carmen Miller, one of the featured artists, volunteered her time to organize the concert.

Miller also had a hand in last year’s concert.

“Dealing with a lot of different musicians is a very cool thing,” Miller said.

“It’s fun, stressful, amazing, weird — all at the same time.”

Miller said she appreciates being

able to hear her fellow artists from the album live, as it gives her a good perspective on the different types of music Toledo has to offer.

“I’m a musician myself and I’m an absolute fan of these people,” she said.

The goal of the concert, according to Miller, is getting the bands some publicity and drawing attention to a good cause.

She said she hopes to show “the camaraderie of local musicians and for people to come out and hear lots of bands that they’ve never heard before.”

Miller also said she wants to have a great time, introduce the album with a bang and support the cause.

Thursday, July 17th

“Bands here in Toledo are very philanthropic. It’s the way that we support our city,” she said.

The tentative lineup for the concert, which begins around 7 p.m., is Zak Ward and Bob Stevens, Fish Fisher, The Bradberries, Carmen Miller with Aaftermath, Shutterfish, Nathan Roberts & The New Birds, Cindy Slee and Distant Cousinz as the finale.

Musical styles range from folk to rock to electric influence, with each artist playing two or three songs.

Admission to the concert is free but audience members must be 21 years of age or older to attend, per casino policy. O — Sanya Ali

Your Tarotgram and Horoscope

July 13 – 19, 2014

Events: Mercury enters Cancer (13th), Jupiter enters Leo (16th), Venus enters Cancer (18th) Embrace the process of inventing a delightful future for yourself. It may be necessary to let go of trappings from the past. One big decision gives birth to a host of smaller decisions! Different worldviews or priorities can be a source of conflict or misunderstandings.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Scorpio (October 23-November 21)

A new, improved outlet for your skills is underway as the week begins. Intense concentration helps you work at full speed. After Wednesday, your focus shifts to traveling and people visiting from distant places. News pours in from friends in diverse locations.

Financial and property changes help you resolve looming questions. Use foresight and ingenuity to spot hidden details that could create future problems. Relatives may struggle as the weekend arrives. A brief retreat offers time to restore your inner balance.

Gemini (May 21-June 21)

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)

The week begins with harmonious relationships and creative endeavors at full steam. Past achievements and recommendations generate new commissions. Work involves projects on a vast scale. Conflicts may arise over money or the use of resources.

Transitions in money matters, insurance, pensions or group/family assets require attention. By midweek, your focus shifts to important projects, commitments and goals you must reach in the future. You make enormous strides toward these after Thursday.

Cancer (June 22-July 22)

Capricorn (December 22-January 19)

Family matters involve legal and property decisions/ agreements. If past ties are severed, considerations about compelling future options are required. People you care about join you in travels and visits. Great efforts are invested in fulfilling visions over the weekend.

It’s easier for you to feel stable and harmonious if the people around you are happily occupied. Differences of opinion test your alliances in the world. If a strategy isn’t working, it may be time to end it. Discuss your concerns in private; evaluate acceptable risks.

Leo (July 23-August 22)

Aquarius (January 20-February 18)

Many discussions surround transitions in people’s relationships as the week starts. Attend to car repairs. You resist involvement in other’s problems as the desire for independence and adventure surges midweek. It’s time to meet new people, take risks and seek inspiration.

A blueprint for the future is your guide. It’s up to you to follow through. Connect with experts who understand the system and can give you aid and advice. Acknowledge the burdens others are carrying. Look for things you can handle on your own to help reduce the load.

Virgo (August 23-September 22)

Pisces (February 19-March 20)

You discover new friends who share your professional interests. A debt is finally paid this week. Contradictory or conflicting goals slow you down midweek. People close to you make sudden changes after Thursday. This is acceptable unless it makes more work for you.

Changes taking place now offer glimmers of opportunity, depending on who you know. You fare well by connecting with good friends and swimming in social waters this week. New creative projects are offered. Special pleasures arrive on Saturday evening.

“We are your neighbors, friends and family. Our kids play together.We listen when you are sad, mad and happy — and when you are hungry, we feed you and your family the food that we made with our own two hands.When you are thirsty, we are the first to sit and share a pint and laugh along with you or just offer company. And at the end of the day, we watch the same sunset from the same view.We are local.” – Tony Bilancini, Owner of Swig Restaurant
