A Challenging Winter Brings A New
Spirit of Hope in the Building Industry
This Summer
FROM THE
COACH’S DESK
by Arnold Sutter
“There hasn’t been a Winter and Spring like this
since I was a kid!” This was the chant of many a
Western Basin Toledoan in 2014, but warm days
with plenty of sunshine has brought a new spirit
to the building trades. Thanks to Wayne Homes
for a super Volume XL! They never stopped
building all Winter—what a great team of building
professionals.
Our staff has taken on a big challenge! We are
building a “magazine of dreams”---not a baseball
“field of dreams” but much in the same theme
a highlighting of the remodeling team of Hire a
Professional Today—here in Toledo. David Rumpf
has graciously accepted the challenge to be our
cover feature. Many businesses were offered this
spot. Because of time, money, and priorities others
have not stepped up like last year’s president of
the “Pro Toledo Team.” Hope you enjoy his work.
Thanks to the numerous members of the Hire a
Pro membership team for supporting Dave and the
organization. We had a slow start but bring on the rest of
Summer, the work, fun, and enjoyment of life
in and around the Western Basin of Lake Erie
and Toledo!!!
Volume XLII will be coming out ASAP! It will
highlight the new docks on Put-in-Bay, the team
efforts of HPH out of Toledo, Shepherds Shoreline
Construction of Sandusky, Westfield Electric of
Gibsonburg, and Frontz Drilling of Wooster, Ohio.
New sponsors like Bayside Comfort, Culligan Water
of Fremont, Put in Bay Investments, and the Reel
Bar of Put-in-Bay will also be highlighted.

HOLY
TOLEDO I
Max and Erma’s
A Family Founded Business Providing
Some Real Family/Community Amenities
by Arnold Sutter
The first visit included talking on the table phones
throughout the restaurant so you could connect
with some friends at another table. Secondly, the
waitresses were on roller skates! This was my first
visit back in the 1980’s. The homemade meatloaf
and real mashed potatoes were my favorite then but
since have been dropped from the menu—probably
too “old school” as I am!
chocolate chip cookies and “make your own ice
cream sundaes” are my top favorites! Be sure you stop by and enjoy the warm
welcome all receive when opening the front door. I
am sure you will not be disappointed!
Today Max and Erma’s at the Maumee, Dussel
Drive location has become not only a great place
for super food and excellent service, but also a
place for community involvement. The managerial
staff has a real knack for helping local schools,
teams, and service organizations earn money for
service projects. “Fundraisers and this community
involvement have been a real fun thing for our
Maumee location!” states the management staff.
Historically, I have always loved the personality
of this popular eating and drinking establishment
in Ohio. Founded in Columbus, in the German
Village, by Max and Erma’s family and known for
its’ “homemade” style I have always been attracted
to it’s ambiance. There are over 60 Max and Ermas
in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Indiana.
Coming Soon!!
From the owner
of El Camino Real,
comes La Chalupa!
During the last year, they have had an interior
remodel that is fantastic!! The numerous televisions
throughout the restaurant gives the sports buff
some excellent opportunities to keep up with what
is happening with their favorite team. I, myself,
prefer the lunch special combining sandwiches,
soups, and salads. Their freshly baked, still warm

Toledo Shrine Circus
Not Only For Kids To Enjoy
HOLY
TOLEDO II
by Melissa Barber
Where else can you see hilarious clowns, dangerous
BMX stunts, talented, exotic animals, highflying
aerialists, and flexible contortionists all in one location
for your entertainment pleasure? The circus, of course!
The Toledo Shrine Circus puts on quite a show too.
Two and a half hours of pure, childlike enjoyment,
makes you feel and act like a kid again. Too old for the
circus, you say? Take me, for example, I wanted to do
something special for my 25th birthday. I wanted to
feel like a kid again, so I got eight friends together and
we all went to the circus. They all enjoyed themselves,
even one of the moms. You are never too old for the
circus despite what anyone tells you.
Since their first circus in 1952, Zenobia Shriners
have presented an annual circus in Toledo. The Zenobia
Shriners are a branch of a fraternity called Shriners
International. Shriners are
based on fun, fellowship
and the Masonic principles
of brotherly love, relief
and truth. In March 2014,
they presented their 63rd
annual Shrine Circus at
the Seagate Centre in
downtown Toledo for
the enjoyment of all of
Northwest
Ohio
and
Southeast Michigan. There
is a little bit of everything for the whole family to enjoy,
even those young-at-heart.
animals like the tigers and elephants. Bo, the 27-yearold elephant, was one of my favorite acts. Close to that,
were the aerialists and the dangerous BMX stunts that
they show right in front of your face. It amazes me how
someone can perform at such a dangerously high level.
So, even if you are 5 or 95, there is something for
everyone at the circus. Go there sometime, you too
may feel like a kid again!
To learn more about Zenobia Shiners and their
next events, check out www.zenobiashiners.com. To
get tickets to next year’s show, please check out www.
zenobiashrinecircus.com or call (419) 661-5060.
This year, the famous Jordan World Circus
provided an array of breathtaking acts. Semi-finalist
from season 8 of America’s Got Talent, Chicago Boyz
Acrobatic Team made
their appearance in the
circus. There were also
talented pink poodles
doing tricks like the
famous Olate dogs that

NATURE &
RECREATION I
by Arnold Sutter
The Bavarian Inn
An Incredible History of Family Love of
Giving Frankenmuth, Michigan Something
Special To Be Proud
given to all who work here at this beautiful resort.
The story of The Bavarian Inn begins in 1888
when the Fischer family opened a hotel and
restaurant along the Cass River in the “thumb” area
of Eastern Michigan. It is a composite of miracles,
dreams, and prayers answered. For all of us have
experienced the “gemuethlichkeit” (hospitality) it
is a memory that will last forever. “This business
shall continue forever”, according to William “Tiny”
Zehnder! As I ponder my totally enjoyable time,
the Bavarian Inn experience, with the matriarch,
Dorothy Zehnder, all the accolades of praise would
not do justice to the warm genuine love that she has
The village of Frank (area of Bavaria) en muth
(German word for courage) was settled by German
immigrants in 1845. 2013 was the 125th year
celebration of the Bavarian Inn which includes
a restaurant with 12 German themed dining
rooms as well as a resort Lodge with 360 rooms,
convention center and 4 indoor pools including
two water slides. Throughout the years, the family
has developed new businesses, including the Castle
Shops, Frankenmuth Cheese Haus, Covered Bridge
& Leather Gift Shop, and Frankenmuth River Place
Shops. Other Bavarian Inn operations include
Grandpa Tiny’s historical working farm, and the
Frankenmuth Motel.
“Family is everything”, states Tiny Zehnder!
“Our creed is based on the values, mission, and
purpose of the Bavarian Inn. One rule requires that
everyone work outside the business to gain other
experiences. Like every successful business, we
are constantly evolving based on market demands,
while staying true to my father’s vision,” says Bill
Zehnder.
Family unity, perseverance and hard work,
having fun along the way seems to be the secret
for Dorothy Zehnder (the 92 year old matriarch),
who works 6 days a week managing the kitchen
and then on Monday she schedules cooking with
her grandchildren. What a woman! As the fourth
generation assumes leadership positions in the
corporation, they look forward to both upholding
tradition and carrying the business forward to
future generations. In 2013, 10 family members
from three generations work in a very empathetic
mode, carrying on the traditions of Tiny and

Bahia Cabana
A Hidden Gem On A Beautiful Beach In
Fort Lauderdale, Florida
NATURE &
RECREATION II
by P. Maravich
that is tough to beat! I think I like the place because
it reminds me of not only Key West, but Folly
Beach, South Carolina, and Put-in-Bay on South
Bass Island in the Western Basin of Lake Erie.
This was my third year to visit this “hidden
gem” to relax, enjoy “snowbird” friends, and to be
cordially served some of the best food on any beach
in Florida. You can enjoy all of these amenities
while watching the “coming and going” of some of
the most beautiful international yachts porting in
Fort Lauderdale.
The Flanin family have been the operating
management of this fine resort, losing their popular
patriarch in 2013. I met Pat Flanin three years
ago and I share the loss of the missing spirit of his
presence.
A visitor can easily miss this historic watering
hole/restaurant/resort but not by water. Many of
the huge yachts and tourist boats breeze by with a
super vision of one of the real fun spots in the Fort
Lauderdale Atlantic Ocean beach strip. To many of
the natives and tourists it may be the friendliest,
warmest, yet most “laidback” resorts in Southwest
Florida. You get a feel of Key West with all the palm
trees and everything close by including: a hot tub, a
beautiful pool, 2 bars, and a menu at the restaurant

Marblehead Lighthouse
For Every Season, There’s a Reason To
Visit the Marblehead Lighthouse
by Warren DeWitt
Latitude North 43.2 Longitude West 82.7
Set your GPS and hit the road to the Marblehead
Lighthouse. Been there before? That’s why you came
back! Never been there before? You are in for a
pleasant surprise. With a backdrop of tall trees, the 65
foot tall white lighthouse, capped by a red top, hugs
the rocky shoreline of Lake Erie. On calm days, it is a
wonderful place to walk or sit on the rocks, the water
gently slapping on the shore as the seagulls soar and
the boats and ships pass by.
When the water is rough and the storms roll
through, it is easy to understand that for almost 200
years, at this very spot, the lighthouse has served as a
beacon of hope and joy for sailors seeking safe passage
by the ominous, dangerous rocks of Catawba Island.
time along the marshy shore of Lake Erie. You
might notice that many of the land features have
French names, thanks to the French explorers
and trappers that explored this area more than
350 years ago.

THE BUILDING
OF HISTORY II
Key West’s Finest Cuban Cigars
by P. Cusimano
Key West, Florida is exactly 106 Miles from
Havana, the birthplace of our cigar culture. Before
Miami, before Hav-a-Tampa, and before Ybor City
there was Key West.
In 1868, Vicente Martinez Ybor a Spainiard
escaped Cuba after being accused for funding Cuban
rebels during the Ten Years War. While working in
Cuba he had learned of the cigar industry. He settled
in nearby Key West, and opened a factory and started
producing his Principe de Gales brand. By the early
1800’s, Key West had become the cigar capital of the
world, producing tens of millions of cigars.
Spain, which still had control of Cuba until 1898,
demanded little taxes for raw leaf material compared
to, finished cigars. Therefore the product “Clear
Havanas” was born. Clear meant free of Spanish tax,
the tobacco was imported from Cuba, and rolled by
Cubans in Key West. This is where the story of The
Cortez Cigar Company begins.
Walter Sayers Lightbourn was born in 1861, in Key
West, Florida. His family moved from the Turks Island.
He grew up in the rich cigar culture of Key West, which
employed 80% of the island at the time. He started
learning the craft of blending and rolling tobacco. In
1881, Mr. Lightbourn had successfully started The
Cortez Cigar Company, in which he employed over
300 rollers. Under the direction of Mr. Lightbourn, The
Cortez Cigar Company rolled a million cigars.
At the height of production the Labor Strike of
1885, slowly diminished The Cortez Cigar Company.
As soon as the labor strike had ended the infamous
fire of 1886, wiped out the island and all of its cigar
manufacturers including Cortez Cigars. Within three
years, Mr. Lightbourn rebuilt the factory and started
up production for Cortez Cigars. For the next decade,
Mr. Lightbourn would go back and forth between
newly independent Cuba and Key West.
As Cuba gained independence, he sought after
the opportunity to purchase plantations, as he would
eventually oversee and control the entire operation. On
August 10th, 1906, Mr. Walter Sayers Lightbourn died
at his plantation in Batabano, Cuba. After the death of
Mr. Lightbourn, the factory was robbed and set on fire
by the infamous Florida Keys gangster Dutchy Melville
and his gang. Dutchy was famous for robbing cigar
factories and torching them to hide the evidence. He
was found guilty and sentenced on May 14th, 1908. A
series of hurricanes devastated the island, and wiped
away the last of the cigar manufacturers in Key West.
For over 107 years, Cortez Cigars Key West
remained dormant until Ms. Marlene Carbonell,
the great-granddaughter of Mr. Walter Lightbourn,
appeared at the door to our store on Greene Street with
treasures of a culture lost. She had an old cigar band
from 1884 and an original Cortez Key West cigar box.
On the inside cover of the cigar box the lithography
depicted an erect Conquistador Hernán Cortés with
the Aztec pyramids in the background.
Coincidentally, we had befriended a cigar maker
the previous year, with the boxes and the cigar bands
we went off to the Dominican Republic to recreate
Cortez Cigars Key West. As of today, we have the
cigar bands identical to the original and are currently
finishing the cigar boxes.
We created two unique blends. The “Conquistador”
which is a very mild-medium cigar is made up of a
Connecticut shade wrapper, and Dominican binder
and filler. Making for a very light smoke with hints of
nut and wood.
With 2014 already here, we will be releasing the
second blend called the “Marquis” which is a very
medium bodied cigar made up of an Ecuadorian sungrown wrapper, a Dominican binder and Nicaraguan
fillers. The cigar itself will be a very aromatic cigar with
a rich oak flavor with hints of leather.
These cigars are available at our Greene
Street Cigar location and coming in April
will be available for sale on our website!!
