Reminiscent of the salon concerts of a time long ago, the final concert for the Bay View Wind Institute will take place at 8 p.m. in Bay View’s Evelyn Hall on Saturday, August 13th. The students of the Bay View Wind Institute will be featured side-by-side with the esteemed faculty. Altogether, the faculty and students will join forces to present a rousing performance of Adrien Barthe’s Passacaille to begin the program. The two talented student groups will present works of musical depth and beauty, and the faculty will also present an energetic and delightful morsel. To end the program, horn faculty Aaron Brant will lead the students in a whimsical selection from Emile Bernard’s Divertissement.

The Bay View Wind Institute is an intensive chamber music experience. Closely guided by faculty in chamber group coachings, masterclasses, and private lessons, these students present performances at the Friday afternoon

chapel recitals, outreach concerts at Bay Harbor and Mackinaw Crossings, and in La Cenerentola opera orchestra. Additionally, they engage in orchestral mock auditions and courses in professional artist development.

The Bay View Wind Quintet faculty includes Donna Shin (flute) from the University of Washington, Sara Fraker (oboe) from the University of Arizona and Tucson Symphony, Jeanmarie Riccobono (clarinet) from Traverse

Symphony, Aaron Brant (horn) from the University of Dayton and Dayton Philharmonic, and Jill Marderness (bassoon) from the Arizona Opera and Scottsdale Neighborhood Arts Place. The Wind Institute students have traveled from the far corners of the continent (from Montreal, Florida, Texas, Alaska, to name a few) and many have completed their undergraduate and graduate music degree from among the top music schools in the country. The future is bright with this group of young chamber musicians, so please come out and enjoy this Evelyn Hall performance event. Admission is free and open to the public. Donations received at the door will support Wind Institute scholarship and outreach activities. Currently, the Wind Institute is seeking donor support and sponsorship. Please contact Chris or Melissa at 231-347-6225 for information on how you can help develop and support the Bay View Wind Institute.

The Wind Institute

Michigan’s official “State Tree” This week’s spotlight tree is the

White Pine – Pinus strobus.You can’t miss it on the Bay View

campus; there is a small grove of themsurrounding the Wade bell tower.

They were planted there in the early 1970’s, and they grow about a foot per year. They have a graceful up-reaching form and can be easily identified by their needles that are five in a cluster. The tree has a light green, slightly bluish color.

In the years prior to European settlement here, Michigan was covered in forests with a variety of species. It is said that in those years a squirrel could move from one tree to another across the entire state without ever touching the ground. Before the pioneers came and settled Bay View, our area was forested quite largely with White Pines, along with some Hemlocks and other mixed species.

The most intense logging occurred in the 1870’s and 1880’s , as countless boat loads of timber were moving down Lake Michigan to the growing cities south of us – Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Flint, etc.

Most of our cottages were built during those years, and most of the wood in them is White Pine. We marvel at the elaborate craftsmanship that produced our summer homes – without the benefit of modern power equipment. We spend much of our vacation time maintaining these lovely old “cottages”, but imagine living in a tent while building your cot-tage with all its elaborate “gingerbread”

trim. There was plenty of sun in those early years, as the trees were cut down to build the cottages. And plenty of sweat, as both men and women were dressed in black wool garments, accord-ing to the pictures!

The White Pines that surround the bell tower are reminders of that history. They tower above the tower, to remind us of our rich heritage in this oasis carved out of the forest primeval. Thanks be to God for our White Pines!

like to thank the Bay View community for generously supporting the Ice Cream Social this year, which raised over $600, the Small Works of Art Auction, which raised over $3,000, and Treasures in the Trees, which raised over $1,000. The social events planned by Morning Council continue to be some of the most fun events of the summer! Morning Council would also like to announce that funds have been donated to Performing Arts for a camlock, the Bay View Library for children’s books, program, and a basket for unshelved books, as well as the traditional $1,500 for Recreation as an educational grant offered to leaders wanting to add a little something extra to their campers at Boys’ and Girls’ Club. Morning Council is also pleased to announce the new officers for summer 2017-2018: President Julia Healy, Vice President Sue Collins, Treasurer Amy Rosacker, and Secretary Cherisa Dines-Popper. We look forward to serving the Bay View community again next year with another Ice Cream Social and Treasures in the Trees.

Fair Winds….and Following Seas….Until Next Year…..

What a great turn out for the last Sunfish Races of the Season! We had nine boats and a total of 17 participants.

Parker Nelson, Alexina Beckley, and Xander Estes took a break from the “Real Bay View Open” to join in the fun. Larry Kepner raced after a several year hiatus. Welcome back Larry! The Moran Crew (Patrick and Melissa and kids Tate and Japes) was back again this year and received first place for “stick-ing to it!” Patrick and Tate didn’t let a little thing like hanging out on the rocks deter them, and Melissa and Japes may have capsized once….or twice…or three times…or four times….maybe five????.....but they stuck to it and raced well. The wind was strong and even the Beckley kids (Ian and Alexina) and their respective crews capsized. John Schloff intentionally capsized Jason Biddle after they finished the second race.

Bart English returned for his second weekend of racing at Bay View. A skillful sailor, he did well keeping up with the under 21 crowd. Maybe we can get him to teach some racing strategies next year???

Nathan Schloff was sailing solo all day and was FAST! However….we have it on good authority that he did not yield to someone on a starboard tack during the second race so DQ for Nathan! (NOT DAIRY QUEEN!)

Race Results:1st Race:Solo: 1st – Nathan Schloff (14:27),

2nd - Bart English (14:53), 3rd – Larry Kepner (15:55)

Duo: 1st – John Schloff & Megan Biddle (14:57), 2nd – Ian Beckley & Megan McGee (15:43), 3rd – Max Ellsworth & Parker Nelson (16:04), 4th Alexina Beckley & Xander Estes (17:44), 5th – Patrick & Tate Moran (19:33)….not bad after hanging out on the rocks for awhile! Melissa and Japes Moran practiced righting their boat during the first race.

2nd Race: Solo: 1st – Bart English (15:15), 2nd

– Larry Kepner (17:32) (Nathan….the big DQ)

Duo: 1st – Max Ellsworth & Parker Nelson (15:32), 2nd – Alexina Beckley & Xander Estes (16:06), 3rd – Ian Beckley & Jess Koch (17:25), 4th – John Schloff & Jason Biddle (17:27), 5th – Melissa &

Japes Moran (19:27), 6th Patrick & Tate Moran (20:00).

3rd Race: John Schloff was hoping to catch

son Nathan and sailed solo in the third race…..….but it wasn’t to be…..

Solo: *** Fastest time of the year!*** 1st – Ian Beckley (13:29)

(Stu Smith’s time of 12:12 from July 9th was raced on a course without a North Buoy…still fast and fun…but not the sanctioned course). Well done, Ian! 2nd – Bart English (14:15), 3rd – Nathan Schloff (14:35), 4th John Schloff (15:47), 5th – Larry Kepner (16:50)

Duo: 1st – Max Ellsworth & Xander Estes (16:26), 2nd – Alexina Beckley & Parker Nelson (17:25), 3rd – Patrick & Tate Moran (18:36), 4th Melissa & Japes Moran (18:53)

Join us next year on Saturdays for the Bay View Sunfish Races. We’re glad to throw in some Lidos or other classes of boats too. Let us know! We’ll offi-

cially start races on July 1st, 2017. As always, have your boats ready by 12:30pm! Skippers Meetings begin at 12:30pm and races will start prompt-ly at 1pm.

Our thanks to the Boat House Crew and to the Sailing School for all your support this year! It was a great summer of sailing.

There is still reading time left in the summer season! Come to the Bay View Library and check out one of our new 2016 books – or even pick up some great books from previous years that we have in our stacks! Just three quick reminders as the Library begins to wrap up for the season:

Please return your library books before you go home for the winter! We rely on our members to be sure that BV library books return so that when we all return next summer, our full collection is still intact and then you can catch some great books you might have missed this summer.

As you clean your cottages, please donate books for next year’s sale! We are

entirely reliant on your donated books to run our book sale, and we use all money that is raised in the book sale to purchase 2017 bestsellers for you to read during the summer.

Our hours post season are posted on the Library door, and are as follows: Monday (August 15) – Friday (August 19), 9:30 a.m. – 12 p.m. We will be open 9:30 a.m. – 11 a.m. on the follow-ing dates: August 23, August 26, August 30, and September 2.

Thank you for a great summer – we have had six successful events at the Library this summer, and have been busier than ever! Be sure to keep on visit-ing us until we close for the season!

Classical tenor Henry H. Pleas III and pianist Casey Robards will present a vocal recital titled Come down Angels: A Concert of Works by Women Composers on Wednesday, August 17th at 8pm. The concert will be held at Voorhies Hall on the Bay View Campus in Bay View, MI. General Admission. No tickets are required. A free-will offering will be taken to benefit the scholarship fund for the Bay View Music Festival.

Henry H. Pleas III has appeared as leading tenor in many oper-atic produc-tions, including work as soloist for Lyric Opera of Chicago,

Opera Grand Rapids, Skylight Opera Theater and Chicago Opera Theater. He is a frequent recitalist, engaged both in Europe and the United States. He has performed Schubert’s Winterreise and Schwanengesang, Liszt’s Petrarch Sonnets, and a good deal of the song

repertoire from Benjamin Britten. Henry was a finalist in the Lotte

Lehman CyberSing competition, and a past participant in the Lyric Opera Center for American Artists (now the Ryan Center). Henry Pleas’ performance with Chamber Opera Chicago was described by ChicagoClassicalReview.com as “riv-eting”. He will complete a tour with the nationally regarded American Spiritual Ensemble at the end of this month.

C a s e y Robards has given recitals with singers and instrumentalists throughout the United States, as well as Europe, Central and South America

and Asia.  Dr. Robards is currently a Lecturer in Collaborative Piano at Central Michigan University and Director of Collaborative Piano at the Bay View Music Festival. Prior appoint-ments include positions with Indianapolis Opera, Indiana University and Oberlin

Conservatory. Casey received her BM., M.M. and D.M.A. from the University of Illinois and has attended the Tanglewood Music Center, SongFest (Professional Development Program), and has been a pianist for several summer music festivals and competitions.  www.caseyrobards.com

The program of works by women composers samples music spanning over 150 years from Clara Schumann, Nadia and Lili Boulanger, Amy Beach to Florence Price, Undine Smith Moore and living composer Gwyneth Walker. The concert takes a step toward present-ing the music of a group of composers that has been underrepresented on the concert stage.

A portion of proceeds from this con-cert will be donated to scholarships for the American Negro Spiritual Intensive, a new program offering of the Bay View Music Festival, under the direction of Dr. Everett McCorvey, founder of the internationally acclaimed American Spiritual Ensemble. www.americanspiri-tualensemble.com

Monday morning, August 1, 35 fresh faced Fawns sat in a circle, at the Fawn House, to learn about exotic animals. Snakes, lizards and tortoises, oh my!

The Petoskey store, Tropic Cove, traveled some of their special pets to Bay View to teach the 5 and 6 year olds about the habitats and classifications of these animals. The visiting animals included 3 tortoises, a large lizard, a python snake along with 3 other snakes. The expe-rienced Fawn co-leader team of Glenna Atkinson and Amy Seamster requested Morning Council funds to help pay for this special educational program.

Each year the Bay View Morning Council sets aside funds to support addi-tional programming for all of the groups in recreation, from Tot Lot to Bears and Squirrels. As Michelle Hansen, presi-dent of Morning Council said, “We are dedicated women who work hard every summer to raise money for Bay View. We support, and have supported for sev-eral years, recreational programming that is supplemental and has an educational piece. ”

Although the squirmy python snake did raise some squeals of concern, the slow moving and very large 60 pound tortoise was greeted with happy smiles.
