ENTERTAINMENT Friday, August 19, 2011 •

For more than 100 years, it has been a source of enter-tainment for residents and visitors alike.

This year, the Emmet-Charlevoix County Fair runs Saturday, Aug. 20, through Sunday, Aug. 28, at the fairgrounds in Petoskey. And as always, the fair features rides, food, grandstand entertainment, plenty of exhibits and some new events as well.

The fair kicks off with exhibits in six barns, featuring 500 animals in a variety of species. The Commu-nity Building is also open through-out the fair, and features exhibits in flowers, vegetables, quilts and crafts.

The carnival begins on Tuesday, Aug. 23.

Dollar day is Friday, meaning all rides are just $1 from noon-6 p.m. For ride prices, visit www.emmet-county.org/fairticketprices.

Back after popular demand, one of the featured events again this year is the monster truck show.

“The monster truck show was

so popular last year that we added another show this year to accom-modate everyone. The shows are on the first Saturday and Sunday of the fair this year,” said fair man-ager, Agnes Shaw. “Last year we had such a resounding crowd and had to turn 500 people away. We had people backed up to downtown Petoskey and all the way to Wal-Mart.”

A new event this year is the Hometown Idol Contest which will take place following the Dwayne Spaw Country Music Show at 7 p.m., Wednesday, Aug. 24, at the grandstand.

Singers will compete in three dif-ferent categories — juniors, adults and teams.

“We’ve had a lot of interest so far in the Hometown Idol Contest,” Shaw said. “The winners will go on to compete in a regional competi-tion for the possibility of being able to record a 10 to 12 song CD.”

For those who want to register for the Hometown Idol Contest, visit www.yourhometownidol.com.

The tough truck contest takes place at 7 p.m. on Thursday, auto cross is at 7 p.m. on Friday and the

demolition derby takes place at 6 p.m. on Saturday.

And then there’s the food.A variety of vendors will be open

throughout the fair, including pie from the First Christian Church of Petoskey — a fair tradition. The pies, along with some other items, are sold in the Community Build-ing.

“The pie really is an icon of the fair,” Shaw said. “They’ve been here as long as the fair has. Those volun-teers are absolutely incredible.”

Gate admission to the fair begins Tuesday, Aug. 23. The cost is $5 for those 13 and older. Children 12 and under are free. However, on Tues-day, seniors are free from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Parking is free on the grounds. There is also a free shuttle from Hinkley Farm on the corner of Sheridan and Eppler roads, Wednes-day through Saturday, 5 p.m. to close.

“The fair is just really a great event for all ages and seems to get better and better each year,” Shaw said.

Margie Guyot’s work, seen here, will be on display during a one-woman show at Three Pines Studio in Cross Village Saturday, Aug. 20, through Tuesday, Aug. 30.

CROSS VILLAGE — A new show at Three Pines Studio in Cross Village features a kalei-doscope of color and images.

Still life artist, Margie Guyot from Eastport, will have a one-woman show from Saturday, Aug. 20, through Tuesday, Aug. 30. The show, titled “On Vintage Cloth: Still Life Paint-ings,” features her colorful work, showcasing a variety of

fabrics and textures.“Ever since I can remember,

I’ve always loved old table-cloths, hankies and fabrics,” Guyot said. “Over the years, I’ve collected them and it seemed inevitable — incorpo-rating them into my still life paintings.”

Guyot said she loves work-ing with oils because it offers a brilliance and depth of color you can’t find anywhere else.

Years ago, Guyot worked 50-plus-hour weeks on the

assembly line at Ford Motor Company. She had her still life art supplies set up in her din-ing room which allowed her to work for short periods of time.

While she still works on still life paintings, she also enjoys plein air landscapes, and alter-nating between the two keeps her on her toes, she said.

“I have no interest in paint-ing the typical dark, gloomy still lifes that most people think of when they think of still life — dark, brown,

gloomy, with a single ray of light on an onion,” Guyot said. “Hey, life is a carnival, full of colors and surprises.”

An opening reception will take place from 2-7 p.m. on Sat-urday, Aug. 20, and is open to the public.

Three Pines Studio is lo-cated at the corner of Lever-ing and State roads in Cross Village.

Spectrum Brass presents, “Who Could Ask for Anything More?” a concert to benefit First Tee, on Sunday, Aug. 21, at Bay View’s John M. Hall Auditorium. The show features a

variety of songs from American composer George Gershwin.

A concert featuring the music of one of America’s most fa-mous composers will

help raise money for a local organization.

Spectrum Brass will pres-ent, “Who Could Ask For Anything More?” at 8 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 21, at John M. Hall Auditorium in Bay View. The show features the music

of George Gershwin.The concert is a benefit for

First Tee, which helps enrich the lives of young people by providing educational pro-grams that build character and install life-enhancing values and promote healthy choices through the game of golf.

Spectrum Brass is a per-forming ensemble based in Michigan.

Jacob Cameron, the founder and artistic director for the

group, said the first half of the show is geared toward a more classical music loving audience, while the second half is more of a cabaret.

Five of the eight members of the group have ties to the Bay View Music Festival, including Elizabeth Stoner who recently appeared in the Bay View musical, “Grease” and Anthony Patterson, a Bay View faculty member.

“Spectrum’s show is more of a Gershwin revue than a brass

quintet concert,” Cameron explained. “Though Spectrum Brass is an elite ensemble, featuring some of the most sought-after freelance musi-cians in the country, it is a collaboration with Northern Michigan favorites Anthony Patterson and Elizabeth Ston-er that makes the experience distinctive and memorable.

With Anthony’s power cou-pled with the incredible mu-sicality, and Elizabeth’s soul combined with a truly beauti-

ful voice, there is something for everyone.”

Tickets for the performance are $35 for reserved seats and $22 for general admission.

Tickets are available by call-ing (800) 595-4849 or at www.bayviewfestival.org.

They are also available at the Bay View Musical Festival ticket office and the Bay View Post Office during regular business hours and will be available one hour prior to the concert.

T wo art forms — clas-sical music and ballet — will be combined in an upcoming collabo-

ration of area musicians and dancers.

“A Premiere Evening of Bal-let” will take place at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 27, at John M. Hall Auditorium in Bay View.

The event is a collabora-tion between Crooked Tree Arts Center’s pre-professional dancers and the Great Lakes Chamber Orchestra. It is the first collaboration the two have performed together.

“This is particularly excit-ing as most professional bal-let companies can’t afford to perform with live orchestra anymore, and we have this rare opportunity here in our own community,” said Crooked Tree Arts Center Dance Department director, Heather Raue.

Twelve dancers will perform classical and neoclassical ballet choreographed by Raue.

A portion of the money raised from the event will go to the Crooked Tree Arts Center Dance Scholarship Fund, which was established in 2009 to fi-nancially assist Crooked Tree’s pre-professional dancers in their summer ballet intensive studies.

Dale Hull, former executive director of Crooked Tree Arts Center, approached Raue years ago about choreographing an original ballet to the “Peterboro Letters,” which was composed by Lynne Palmer Warren.

Warren’s poem was inspired by lithographs created by Torch Lake resident, Betty Beeby. Beeby created the lithographs

after she discovered a collection of letters in her father’s trunk seventy years after they had been placed there.

The letters belonged to her father’s best friend, and were written in 1904 from a 43-year-old single woman to her newly discovered 26-year-old son. It was a son her family told her had died shortly after his birth.

“After several years of discus-sion, the time was right to do this,” Raue said. “I had the op-portunity to go to Betty Beeby’s home to learn more about the history of the project and gain great inspiration from her.”

For the last year, Raue and the Great Lakes Chamber Or-chestra have worked together on the event.

Orchestra maestro, Matthew Hazelwood, will help bring the letters, art, music and dance together on stage.

As actors read from the origi-nal letters and the Great Lakes Chamber Orchestra preforms the music, the dancers will tell the story in movement against a backdrop of Beeby’s litho-graphs projected onto the stage to serve as a simple, yet stun-ning set.

“I am very excited to be work-ing with Heather Raue and her wonderful dancers on this project,” Hazelwood said. “We are blessed to have such talent in our community and excited about the magic that can only come while one is dancing to live music played well.”

The triple bill includes Ed-vard Grieg’s Holberg Suite to be followed by Claude Debussy’s Danses sacrée et profane. Portions of the letters will be read on stage by radio personalities Ron Jolly and Mary Ellen Geist.

Tickets are $25 for adults and $10 for students and are avail-able at the Crooked Tree Arts Center, (231) 347-4337 or www.

crookedtree.org, or from the Great Lakes Chamber Orches-tra office at (231) 487-0010 or www.glcorchestra.org.

After the batter is mixed up, fry the patties in a skillet lightly coated in oil.

When small bubbles form on the top, turn the patties over.

RACHEL BROUGHAM/NEWS-REVIEW

Zucchini patties, seen here, are best eaten just after cooking. They can

be eaten plain or topped with tomato sauce, sour cream and even used

in a sandwich.

Mix together the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients and the

pound of shredded zucchini. Don’t over mix or the patties will turn out a

bit tough.

Rachel Brougham tests vegan waters July 1-Oct. 1, 2011

Too much zucchini?

Z ucchini seems to be one of those foods, like rhubarb, that people just end up

giving away.If you grow it, you probably

have an overabundance com-ing out of your garden right now. And if you work with or live near someone that grows it, chances are, you will prob-ably end up with some if you haven’t already.

Zucchini, which is a type of squash, offers variety and ver-satility.

The vegetable, which is rich in vitamin A and low in calories, can be grilled, sauteed, roasted and even shredded and used in quick breads and muffins.

Last week, I dug up one of my favorite recipes that I often make during the summer months when zucchini is at its peak.

With some simple variations, I was able to turn my recipe for zucchini patties into a vegan version. And if you’re not vegan, throw in some shredded mozzarella or Parmesan cheese to the recipe.

The patties are best served just after cooking, topped with a simple tomato sauce, sour cream, or even used

in a sandwich.

Vegan Zucchini Patties

1 cup of flour

1/4 cup ground cornmeal

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 1/2 teaspoons of egg replacer (or one large egg)

2 tablespoons warm water (to dissolve egg replacer)

1 cup non-dairy milk (I use almond milk)

1 pound zucchini, shredded

1 small onion, chopped

2 tablespoons canola oil

Combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, cumin and oregano and whisk to combine. Set aside.

In another bowl, combine the egg replacer and warm water and whisk to dissolve egg replacer. Add the milk and whisk.

Stir the zucchini into the dry ingredients to coat with flour.Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, add onion and stir to

combine. If the batter is too dry, add a little extra milk. Heat skillet or griddle and coat with oil. Use 1/4 cup for each patty and

cook patties in hot griddle until small bubbles form on the top of the frit-ter and then flip and cook the other side.
