Lakeside honors volunteers
Volunteers are essential
to the quality of the Lakeside
Chautauqua experience.
Lakeside will recognize and
celebrate the service and commitment of volunteers at the Volunteer Recognition Picnic, held
from 12-1 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 8
on the Hotel Lakeside lawn.
Volunteers help in virtually
every aspect of what renders the
Lakeside Chautauqua experience distinctive and unique.
In the spring, they assist with
the beautification of the grounds
during Lakeside Spring Cleanup Day.
Volunteers maintain Lakeside’s many gardens during the
summer months, teach children
to sail for the first time as part
of the Kids Setting Sail program
and lend a hand at the evening
programs and worship services
in Hoover Auditorium.
In the fall, Lakesiders return
to Lake Erie to assist with the
operations of the Lakeside-Mar-
blehead Lighthouse Festival.
These are just a few of the
many ways volunteers make an
impact at Lakeside Chautauqua
all year.
From Saturday, Aug. 8-Friday, Aug. 14, the community
will celebrate the countless
hours and dedication of all the
special volunteers.
In reality, this small gesture
in no way expresses enough
thanks to the volunteers that
give of themselves daily, weekly, monthly and all year.
Lakeside Chautauqua appreciates the time and talent
each individual gives to make a
significant impact on the community.
All are invited to pause this
week and give thanks to the volunteers who make the Lakeside
Chautauqua experience special.
Master Plan: Every voice matters
The Lakeside Chautauqua
staff and Board of Directors are
committed to the five strategic
goals and establishing a clear
road map for the community’s
future.
Lakeside’s five strategic
goals are: 1.) Preserve Lakeside’s heritage, traditions and
culture as expressed in the mission and vision statement, 2.)
Become known as a center of
One of Lakeside Chautauqua’s strategic goals is to develop
the financial resources needed for
sustainability.
Years ago, Lakeside’s leaders
were dedicated to securing the future of the community and decided to begin an endowment.
The endowment is like a
savings account, where the principal remains untouched and a
small percentage of the interest
is used to help fund operations.
Lakeside’s endowment totals
$3.8 million, which is small for
a 142-year-old community. The
vision of building a larger endowment remains extremely imperative for Lakeside’s future and
long-term sustainability.
Each year, a percentage of the
earnings from the endowment is
drawn to support the Chautauqua
program and the preservation of
many historic buildings.
Today, it funds only two
percent of the annual cost of operations, roughly contributing
$120,000 to the $7 million budget. The best way to ensure the
community’s sustainability is to
build an endowment that significantly funds annual operations.
This would improve the
ability to implement emerging
programs, continue to secure
preachers, scholars and researchers, maintain the historic structures and care for the parks and
grounds in perpetuity.
Many Lakesiders have made
it a priority to protect the future
Chautauqua programming excellence, 3.) Assure Lakeside
is a safe, healthy and aesthetically pleasing community, 4.)
Address 21st century guest expectations, and 5.) Develop the
financial resources needed for
long-term sustainability and advancement.
This summer, many Lakesiders have been providing feedback to help plan for Lakeside’s
future. They have participated
in interviews, focus groups,
community forums, surveys,
presidential roundtable discussions and commenting on social
media, as well as on Lakeside’s
blog, The Front Porch.

Endowment’s growth imperative to preserve Lakeside
of the community by giving to
the Lakeside Fund annually or
planning a deferred endowment
gift, and Lakeside thanks these
families for their support.
All are invited to join these
generous families by giving to
the Lakeside Fund and planning a
legacy gift for the future. Whether pledging a gift or leaving Lakeside as a beneficiary in an estate,
IRA or life insurance policy, you
can benefit in many ways, including reducing income tax, avoiding capital-gain tax or reducing or
eliminating state or federal estate
taxes.

Week from Aug. 9-14.
For nearly 20 years,
the Rev. Dr. Selby worked

Tim Hawkins brings music, laughs
Tim Hawkins, a family-friendly comedian and songwriter known for his witty song
parodies, will perform at 8:15
p.m. Saturday, Aug. 8 in Hoover
Auditorium.
Hawkins began his career as a
stand-up comedian after quitting
his job as a grocery truck driver
in 2002. Now, he performs more
than 120 sold-out shows in more
than 30 states each year.
His following was an overnight success, now having more
than 300 million views and
125,000 subscribers on YouTube
and 450,000 Facebook fans.
Hawkins’ obscure approach
to the comedic stage sets him
apart from others. He combines hilarious, family-friendly
skits with subtle music in every
show, including his notorious
wretched cow impressions.
Each of his pieces is well-timed
and honed into perfection, all
while making a deeper connection with the audience.
“When you connect with a
group of people, they relate to
you,” he said. “If you can latch
onto the truth, then you’re doing
yourself a favor. It’s very fulfilling.”
A self-taught guitarist, Hawkins plays a variety of songs,
note-for-note, from Lynyrd
Skynyrd to Bon Jovi to Prince,
as part of every show. During
his musical parodies, he weaves
in flawless vocal imitations
from artists such as Bono, Jason
Aldean and John Mayer.

Shirley Stary celebrates 10 years
Before the evening performances at Hoover Auditorium, Shirley Stary is running
from the lobby to backstage,
making sure that everything
is ready for the show.
She is taking care of final
details here and there and preparing her introduction for the
upcoming performance. When
the clock hits 8:15 p.m., Stary,
senior vice president of Programming at Lakeside, heads
out onto the stage.
Even though she talks for
just a few minutes, Stary has
the bright look in her eyes
that somebody has when they
love what they do.
Stary first visited Lakeside
in 2001, when she was going through a very hard time
in her life. She had recently
divorced and was coming to
Lakeside for counseling with
the Rev. Ruth Shannon, a
longtime Lakesider.
Stary was coming to heal
and Lakeside seemed like the
perfect place to do it. It was the
healing grace and peacefulness
of Lakeside that helped Stary
to find herself again.
In 2003, while living in
Ashland, Ohio, she met Bill
Rodwancy, her current husband, who lived on Catawba
Island. She was soon was convinced that the lake is where
she wanted to be.
Then in 2005, a great opportunity was presented to
Stary. Keith Addy had announced his retirement, and
Lakeside was looking for a
Director of Programming.
She knew this was a perfect
position for her, not only because of location, but also because of her experience working at Ashland University and
the San Diego Repertory Theatre. The position required the
skills she had acquired while
working in the field of arts
management and pursuing her
master’s degree. It fit perfectly
with her love for theater and
the arts, as well as education.
Over the 10 years that
Stary has been working for
Lakeside Chautauqua, she has
expanded her knowledge in
the areas relating to all four
pillars and values the way the
programming from each area
inter-relates. But it is clear that
her love for Hoover Auditorium grows a little more with
every performance.
“Hoover has a life all its
own,” said Stary. “There is
something about the energy of
the building, with all the people that have performed on the
stage, the thousands of clergy
ordained there, and all the lectures that have been delivered
there. It has an amazing sense
of place. I’m honored to be
the current ‘caretaker’ who is
holding it steady for the next
generation of audience and
staff.”
A love for Hoover is not
the only thing that has grown
in Stary; she also loves to be
part of such a great team.
“Something that I love the
most is the people that I work
with, they are all in this for the
right reason,” she said. “This
really big team is working this
puzzle together and trying to
make the best outcome happen. We find ways to encourage each other and support
one another.”
Lakeside has proven to be
the fresh start Stary needed,
and the programming has benefitted from her time here.
Gladiolus growers and
exhibitors from Ohio, Michigan and Pennsylvania will
participate in the Northwestern Ohio Gladiolus Show in
Hoover Auditorium.
The Gladiolus Show,
which has been held at Lakeside for more than 50 years,
will take place from 3-5 p.m.
Saturday, Aug. 15 and 12-5
p.m. Sunday, Aug. 16.
Many different and unusual gladiolus arrangements
will be on display. Exhibitors
and Gladiolus Society members promote appreciation of
gladiolus growing and assist
interested persons or groups
in their cultivation and use.
This is an open entry
show. Locals may bring gladioli on the morning of Saturday, Aug. 15 and will receive
assistance in exhibiting.
Special classes for novice,
intermediate and youth are
provided.
Gladiolus is a genus of
flowering plants in the iris
family. Sometimes called the
“sword lily,” the most widely
used English common name
for these plants is simply
gladiolus.
The genus gladiolus contains approximately 260 species, of which 250 are native
to sub-Saharan Africa, primarily South Africa.
Although glads, as they are
commonly called, are used to
a limited extent for landscape
effect, their chief value is for
cut flowers.
Gladioli produce tall
spikes of large blossoms in a
rainbow of colors.
Only clear, true blue is
missing; white, pink, red,
purple, yellow, orange, salmon and even green gladioli are available, along with
many bi-colors.
The wide range of colors,
sizes and flower types make
them particularly useful for
flower arrangements.
The flowers will be distributed to the public, free of
charge, after 8:30 a.m. Monday, Aug. 17, on the Hoover
Auditorium porch.

Lakeside is Gaiser family’s ‘gathering place’
Noah Manskar
Lakesider Co-Editor
Pavel Fisher did not see
fireworks for the first time
until he was 7 years old.
His parents, Amy Gaiser
and Ken Fisher, adopted him
from Latvia in April 1999.
That July, they brought him
to Lakeside Chautauqua,
where Amy’s family has
gathered for six generations.
Over the Fourth of July
holiday week, he made his
first American friend and
rode his first bicycle in the
Children’s Bike Parade.
When he saw the fireworks
display, his face lit up.
“It was beautiful that
year…,” said Darla Gaiser, Pavel’s adopted grandmother. “But my camera was
aimed at Pavel, this kid with
the huge eyes. He had never
seen anything like it.”
That summer started many
Lakeside traditions for Pavel,
now 23, such as morning donuts and evening ice cream.
It also strengthened his connection with his new family.
“This was the first place
History Highlight:
where I … actually had a
mom, had a dad, had the
grandparents, had the aunts
and uncles to help me out
through stuff and scold
me when I did something
wrong,” he said, “to pick me
up whenever I fell off my
bike and scraped my knee or
bruised myself.”
Lakeside has long served
as a place where all the
Gaisers, who are scattered
across the U.S. from Hawaii
to Georgia, maintain their
strong family bonds.
The tradition started with
Darla’s grandparents and
great aunt and uncle, with
whom she spent summers in
Lakeside as a child. Her husband, Mark Gaiser, also came
when he was young, and the
couple kept Lakeside a tradition after they married.
Mark’s work caused the
couple and their four children
to move often. But, the family
always returned to Lakeside,
making it a “stable zone” for
the children, Darla said.
While the first generation
of Gaiser Lakesiders has
passed away, all five surviv-
The Gaiser family
ing generations return to the
grounds every summer, and
Pavel has not missed one
since his first in 1999.
“This is our gathering
place,” Darla said.
Pavel has lived in his parents’ house on Erie Beach
Road, just outside the Fifth
Street Gate, since graduating
college in May. His uncle,
Matt Gaiser, and his family
also have a house on Erie
Beach Road, near the Second
Street West Gate.
Family members now stay
in the historic farmhouse
rather than renting cottages to house 30 to 40 people,
Matt said. It also allows him,
his wife Hillery and their two
children, whose permanent
home is in Athens, Ohio, to
spend all summer on the lake.
Matt said he bought the
house because he “thought
it’d be a good home for my
family for the next few generations.” The Gaisers gathered there over Memorial
Day weekend to celebrate
Pavel’s college graduation.
Darla’s mother, Cheryl
Rucker, was there, representing the second generation, as
was her great-granddaughter
Alena Hoisington, the sole
member of the sixth.
“We’ve gotta get six
more,” Darla said.
Lowell Thomas holds record for largest crowd
Gretchen Curtis
Lakeside Heritage Society
Director of Operations
Lakesiders are often curious about the largest audiences to attend programs in
Hoover Auditorium. Thanks
to a booklet about the auditorium’s first 50 years, written
by Kenneth Miller in 1978,
the information is readily
available.
Central Auditorium was
built in nine months over the
winter of 1928-1929 with
3,000 seats, 1,800 in front of
the cross aisle and 1,200 behind the aisle.
The building name was
changed to Hoover Auditorium in 1949 after the death of
Arthur L. Hoover, who had
served for 20 years as Lakeside’s General Manager prior
to retirement in 1946.
The largest audience ever
to attend a program in the auditorium was on August 11,
1934 with Lowell Thomas as
the speaker. With chairs at the
rear, front, in the aisles and on
the stage behind the speaker,
the audience numbered approximately 4,200.
As an accredited World
War I correspondent, Thomas
met T. E. Lawrence, a captain
in the British Army in Jerusalem. Thomas shot dramatic
footage of Lawrence and, after the war, toured the world,
narrating his film, “Lawrence
in Arabia,” making Lawrence
— and himself — household
names.
By 1934, when Thomas
spoke at Lakeside, he had been
a radio network broadcaster of
nightly news for four years.
The second largest audience to see an evening program was on July 10, 1940 to
hear then-First Lady Eleanor
Roosevelt. With chairs added
except on the stage, the attendance was about 3,800 with
many people standing outside
at the open windows.
At the time, World War II
had been raging in Europe
for almost a year, but U.S.
citizens were still hoping that
the U.S. could remain neutral.
Roosevelt’s chosen topic was
“The Relationship of the Individual to the Community,”
and she urged citizens to take
an active interest in housing,
health, schools and politics
as a means of preserving democracy.
The largest Sunday morning congregation and second-largest crowd overall was
on July 12, 1970 with the Rev.
Dr. Norman Vincent Peale
giving the sermon, “Positive
Attitude toward Problems.”
Approximately 4,000 were
in attendance. The Rev. Dr.
Peale, senior minister at Marble Collegiate Church in New
York City, served four terms
as president of the Council of
Churches of NYC.
The Peninsular News on
July 10, 2015 stated, “No other minister of our time has a
more far-flung pulpit than
Dr. Norman Vincent Peale.
Through his books, radio and
television programs, speeches
and published sermons, he is
reaching millions of people
around the world…”
It is a mystery whether
Hoover Auditorium will ever
again host an audience of
3,800 or more people. The
upholstered seats that have replaced the original seats over
the past 12 years are larger and the distance between
rows is wider, resulting in a
current capacity of 2,472 seats
plus nine wheelchair spaces in
Hoover Auditorium.

trees. The posters are on
display in Chautauqua Hall
windows. LESS would like
to thank all participants for
making this project a success. LESS would also like to
thank Lakeside Chautauqua
for providing mini-golf passes for each participant.

History of Epworth Lodge
and today’s Rhein Center
As the C. Kirk Rhein, Jr.,
Center for the Living Arts
celebrates its 16th anniversary on August 8, it is a good
time to tell the extraordinary
story of how Epworth Lodge
became Lakeside Chautauqua’s Center for the Living
Arts.
On July 17, 1996, 43-yearold Lakesider C. Kirk Rhein,
Jr., was killed when TWA
Flight 800, en route from John
F. Kennedy Airport to Paris,
exploded over Long Island.
The resultant outpouring
of support and memorial gifts
inspired the Rhein family to
donate the necessary funds to
begin the restoration of Epworth Lodge and establish a
living memorial, where people of all ages could enrich
their life experience through
the arts.
With additional funding
from Lakeside Chautauqua
and others, Epworth Lodge
came to life as a center for
arts education.
The dedication of the C.
Kirk Rhein, Jr., Center for
the Living Arts took place
on Friday, Aug. 8, 1999. The
new “Rhein Center” was an
immediate success.
This summer, approximately 7,000 seats will be occupied over the course of the
Chautauqua season.
The Rhein Center, as a
function of the cultural arts
pillar, receives oversight
from Shirley Stary, senior
vice president of Programming.
MaryAnn Kelmer, the
eighth and current coordinator of the Rhein Center,
was succeeded by Richard and Shirley Witteborg
(2011-2013), Juliann Breting
Rohn (2006-2010), Chelsea
Meyers (2004-2005), Katie Meyers (2003), Michael
Aboud (2002), Will Honeycutt (2001) and the Rev. Amy
Shaw (1999-2000).

Cherry Avenue cottage
models exemplary renovation
The Lakeside Historic Preservation & Design
Review Board (HP&DRB)
would like to thank homeowners Loralee Marsh and
Steve Ruedrich for the excellent renovation to their
1920s cottage, located at
423 Cherry Ave.
The porch suffered tree
damage several years ago.
As a result, the porch is a
newer structure, but was
designed and constructed to
match both the original and
existing structure.
The hip roof with exposed rafters gives the cot-
tage a rustic, early look. In
addition, the double doors,
windows and architectural
details match the original
house nicely.
The use of natural materials, such as wood to finish
the porch, is greatly appreciated by the HP&DRB, as
this feature would have also
been included in the original design and construction.
By keeping true to the
original structure, the cottage has maintained the
spirit of what it would have
looked like when it was
built in the early 1920s.

Chautauqua Lecture Series
The Armchair Traveler: International Art
10:30 a.m. Monday: Miles Up the Nile: Egyptian Travel from Luxor to Abu
Simbel with Carolyn and Dick Putney (Orchestra Hall)
This lecture will portray a photographic visit to the magnificent ruins and
striking landscape of southern Egypt, reached by boat and plane. Sites will
include the region of Luxor (home of the Valley of the Kings, the Tomb of
Tutankhamen and the ruins of the great Temples of Luxor and Karnak). More
southerly sites along the banks of the Nile River will include the region of Aswan and its modern hydroelectric dam and the ancient island of Philae, site of a
magnificently preserved ancient temple. The culminating segment will feature
a flight to the monumental temple of Abu Simbel, built in the 13th century
BCE by Ramesses the Great and saved in the 1960s from the rising waters of
the Nile.
Carolyn Putney recently retired as Chief Curator and Curator of Asian Art
at the Toledo Museum of Art (TMA), where she now serves as a consulting
curator. While at TMA, she curated numerous exhibits, including Princely Pursuits: The Miniature Painting of India (2003), The Lure of Pompeii (2007) and
Mummies to Monet: The Libbeys Collect (2008).
She earned her Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts degrees from Florida
State University with a major in Asian art history and minors in Renaissance
and Baroque art. Putney received the YWCA Milestones Award in the Arts
category in 2013.
Richard Putney, PhD, recently retired from his position as an Associate Professor and the Head of Art Museum Practices at the University of Toledo, a
department he created and cultivated over the last five years. He also served
as a consulting curator for the international exhibition The Art of the Louvre’s
Tuileries Garden (2014) at the TMA.
A graduate of the University of Delaware with his Bachelor of Arts, Master
of Arts and PhD in art history, his studies concentrated in the areas of medieval
art and architecture.
1:30 p.m. Monday: Sculpted Caves of India: Ajanta & Ellora with Carolyn
and Dick Putney (Orchestra Hall)
Two of India’s greatest rock-cut monuments, the one Buddhist and the other
Hindu, will be explored in this lecture. Buddhist monks began a series of 29
cave temples at Ajanta almost 1,500 years ago. By the 8th century, their handhewn, magnificently painted interiors had been largely abandoned and long
forgotten, rediscovered only in 1819 by a British soldier hunting tigers nearby.
Another series of rock-cut caves in the nearby site of Ellora inhabited by
Hindus, Buddhist and Jains were created and occupied from the 6th-10th centuries. The lecture will analyze the unrivalled masterpiece of Ellora, the Kailasanatha temple, created to imitate the abode of Lord Shiva. A freestanding,
multi-storied temple, it is miraculously carved from a single rock.
10:30 a.m. Tuesday: Rome and Romans in the Imperial Age with Carolyn and
Dick Putney (Orchestra Hall)
This lecture will feature an illustrated visit to ancient Rome, where the first
Emperor Augustus “found a city of brick and left a city of marble.” Photographs of the ancient ruins, as well as recent graphic reconstructions and models, will explore magnificent sites like the Republican Forum, the site where
Julius Caesar was cremated and glorified in a temple, the Forum of Augustus,
the Capitoline Hill, the Colosseum and its gladiatorial combats, the Forum and
Market of Trajan and the astounding dome of the Pantheon. Finally, the lecture
will explore the immense impact of early Christians and Emperor Constantine
on the ancient city.
1:30 p.m. Tuesday: Palladio, Venice & the Veneto: A Master Architect in Magnificent Settings with Carolyn and Dick Putney (Orchestra Hall)
The extraordinarily gifted Venetian architect Andrea Palladio (1508-1580)
is considered by many to be the single most influential and important architect
of the Italian Renaissance. The talented son of a stonemason, Palladio received
a classical education from local aristocrat and scholar, Giangiorgio Trissino,
who recognized his intelligence and rich gifts as a designer. Taken by Trissino
to Rome, the young Palladio was exposed to and deeply influenced by the city’s
magnificent architectural ruins and ancient art. Upon his return to northern Italy, he designed original, highly classical villas and palaces for the gentry of the
Veneto, the largely agricultural countryside surrounding Venice and its lagoon.
Recognized for his beautiful and highly functional designs, he was soon called
to the great maritime city of Venice, a world power known for its maritime
empire; among other Renaissance masterworks, there he designed the extraordinary church and monastic complex of San Giorgio Maggiore, still one of the
city’s most famous landmarks. Studied closely in later centuries by English architects, his designs inspired the great movement of Neo-Palladianism, which
was tremendously popular in Great Britain and the American colonies.
Lake Erie & the Great Lakes
10:30 a.m. Wednesday: Life Aboard a U.S. Coast Guard Icebreaker with
Edward Morris (Chautauqua Hall)
The U.S. Coast Guard is charged with federal responsibility to keep shipping lanes open on the Great Lakes so ships, including vessels carrying ore and
essential cargo, can safely navigate these waters all year.
Edward Morris, Public Affairs Staff Officer with the U.S. Coast Guard
Auxiliary, spent time this past winter aboard the Coast Guard icebreaker, Neah
Bay, and experienced life aboard this 140-foot Bay-class icebreaking tug. His
duties included relieving crew of helm duty and interviewing crew members
aboard the ship. In this lecture, Morris will share what he learned from crew
members about the rewards and hardships of working on a ship such as the
Neah Bay, the work performed by crew members, and how crew members
remained connected with their families while at sea.
A native of Louisiana, Morris has had an extensive nautical career. He
served for numerous years as a tall ship crew member on the Brig Niagara and
his work for a small chemical company took him to sea on multiple vessels.
Now in his third year with the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, his role as Public
Affairs Staff Officer is to promote the breadth of programs and services provided by the U.S. Coast Guard and Auxiliary.
1:30 p.m. Wednesday: The Ohio Coastal Management Program: An Introduction with Brenda Culler (Chautauqua Hall)
Lake Erie, one of the five Great Lakes, is a body of fresh water with many
features that are socially, economically and environmentally significant to the
region and the nation. This lecture will explore the significance of Lake Erie to
Ohio and the work that is being done by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources Office of Coastal Management through the Ohio Coastal Management
Program to monitor activities that affect coastal resources and ensure resource
protection while balancing economic, cultural and environmental interests.
Brenda Culler serves as a Public Information Officer, as well as an Internet
and Education Coordinator for the Ohio Department of Natural Resources Office of Coastal Management in Sandusky, Ohio. As part of her work, she published both the first and second editions of the Ohio Coastal Atlas, Ohio’s Lake
Erie Public Access Guide – Coast Edition and Ohio’s Lake Erie Public Access
Guide – Rivers Edition. Culler earned her bachelor’s degree in journalism and
political science from Kent State University.
10:30 a.m. Thursday: A History of Passenger Travel on the Great Lakes with
James Lundgren (Chautauqua Hall)
This lecture will contain a history of the development of shipping on the
Great Lakes. Starting with the earliest sailing vessels and concluding with the
large steam ships, James Lundgren will tell tales of ships used for immigration,
transportation and enjoyment from the 19th century schooners to the lavish
steamboats of the early 20th century.
Lundgren is the Director of Operations for the National Museum of the
Great Lakes. He has a bachelor’s degree in American history and American
Indian studies and master’s degree in non-profit administration. He has worked
and volunteered for museums and historic sites across the Midwest. Lundgren
has conducted many programs on a variety of Great Lakes topics, ranging from
the fur trade and the War of 1812 to shipping and ship wrecks. He became the
Director of Operations in 2014 as part of the opening of the brand new facility
on the Maumee River in Toledo, Ohio.
1:30 p.m. Thursday: The Status of Lake Erie with Kristen DeVanna Fussell,
PhD (Chautauqua Hall)
Lake Erie is arguably the most important lake in the world, but its ecosystem is severely stressed. The lake’s biggest problems are sediment loading, nutrient loading, harmful algal blooms (HABs), the “dead zone,” aquatic invasive
species and climate change. Addressing and solving these problems requires a
well-organized and coordinated program of research, education and outreach
to a broad array of audiences, such as the business community, farmers, Lake
Erie users and the general public, to identify and implement new resource management policies and behavioral changes within the watershed. This lecture
will analyze Lake Erie’s most critical issues, current research being conducted
and a more in-depth look at what is driving the algal bloom issues in Lake Erie.
Kristen DeVanna Fussell, PhD, earned her bachelor’s degree in zoology
from Ohio Wesleyan University before attending the University of Toledo for
her Master of Science and PhD. She then served as a post-doctoral researcher
at The Ohio State University’s Aquatic Ecology Laboratory. Following a year
as an adjunct professor at Otterbein University, she joined the staff at the Ohio
Sea Grant Program and Stone Laboratory of The Ohio State University. Fussell is a member of the International Association for Great Lakes Research,
American Fisheries Society and the Ecological Society of America.

Concert
Tuesday, Aug. 11
8:15 p.m.
Hoover Auditorium
The Lakeside Symphony Orchestra (LSO), under the direction of Robert Cronquist, will present an evening
concert commemorating the 485th
Anniversary of the Augsburg Confession. This LSO season is supported
by the Ohio Arts Council.
To open the program, the LSO will
perform “Overture to Der Meistersinger,” which was composed by Richard Wagner in 1862.
The optimistic, light-hearted tone
of the piece, paired with Wagner’s
“I used to write what I thought was
funny,” said Hawkins. “Now all I do
is live my life and make notes.”
Hawkins recently released his
sixth concert DVD, titled “That’s the
Worst,” which was added to his collection of DVDs that include “Push
Pull Point Pow,” “Rockshow Comedy
Tour,” “Insanitized,” “I’m No Rockstar,” “Full Range of Motion” and
“Greatest Hits & Bits.”
He also finalized the manuscript
for his first book, titled Diary of a
Jackwagon.
The book, released this past week,
tells his stories about marriage, parenting, homeschooling, worship music and food, while keeping true to his
comedic flair. Diary of a Jackwagon
reminds readers that during
life’s struggles, laughter
will always be the best
medicine.
In addition to his DVD
and book releases, Hawkins
has released five CDs since
2002, including Tuna Fish
Sandwich (2002), Extremely Madeover (2004), Cletus
Take the Reel (2009), Rockshow Comedy Tour (2011)
and Pretty Pink Tractor
(2011).
Hawkins lives in St.
Louis, Mo. with his wife,
Heather, and their four children, three sons and one
daughter.
brant blend of music, language and
stories.
The band’s music bridges the gap
between contemporary Canadian and
Louisiana Cajun-style music from a
tradition that has been passed down
for more than three centuries. The
style blends together Celtic, Canadian and old-time music preserved by
families in the Ozark region.
This medley of music, language,
stories and culture stowed away in
the Missouri Ozarks has been given
a voice, in this tapestry of the world,
with concerts by Dennis Stroughmatt
et l’Esprit Creole.
The group has performed at the
New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, Smithsonian Folklore Festival
and The Library of Congress.
They have also been Old Mines
Area Historical Society’s Fête de
L’Automne (Festival of Autumn)
for the past 17 years running.
Stroughmatt has been playing
fiddle for 23 years. He was taught
to play by local Creole fiddlers
Roy Boyer and Charlie Pashia, in
the same Creole tradition as their
fathers.
Stroughmatt has been the featured keynote speaker at the National Association Teachers of
French Conference and the Missouri Folklore Society Conference.
His band members include
Doug Hawf on guitar and bass; and
Jim Willgoose on upright bass.
Hawf is a member of a French
Creole family in Southern Illinois
with a real passion for playing music
from his family’s heritage.
Willgoose is a longtime folk musician from Boston, Mass., who now
teaches at Kaskaskia Community
College in Centralia, Ill.
are demanding a seven and a half cent
per hour raise.
Company owner, Myron Hasler
(Dunn), is oblivious to the fact that
this wage increase would bring the
employees’ wages in line with the industry standard.
Hasler hires a new superintendent,
Sid Sorokin (Raitt), to fill the role of
negotiator with the union and supervisor of the factory workers.
Soon after arriving to the factory, Sid meets Babe Williams (Day),
the union President and Chair of the
Grievance Committee.
Despite their professional struggles between management and the
union, both Sid and Babe become attracted to one another. However, Babe
knows their professional and personal
lives should not intersect, especially
with the union’s outstanding griev-
ance with the pajama factory.
Thus
far,
Hasler has refused
to grant their motion for a wage increase and blames
the
company’s
Board of Directors, who has the
final approval of
all company decisions.
With the trials of the ongoing strike
lingering, it could ruin any chance of
a personal relationship between Babe
and Sid, unless the problem is resolved.
Now, Babe and Sid must work together to end the strike, meeting both
sides’ demands without taking any
drastic measures that could hurt either
party in the end.
The film is based on the hit Broadway musical, The Pajama Game, featuring choreography by Bob Fosse.
It also showcases the same popular
musical selections as the Broadway
show, including “The Pajama Game,”
“Racing with the Clock,” “I’m Not At
All in Love” and “Hey There.” (101

ability to tap into the revolutions
taking place in the German-speaking
states of central Europe in the 1860s,
meant that the work was a triumph at
its Munich premiere in 1868.
Next, the LSO will play “Symphony No. 39” in E flat major by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The piece
includes four movements, Adagio-Allegro, Andante con moto, Menuetto-Allegro and Finale-Allegro.
Mozart composed the piece in
1788, during the war between Turkey
and the Roman Empire in Vienna.
This particular symphony is unusual, because it is the only composition from Mozart’s adulthood that
does not use oboes. This means the
clarinets are given more prominence
throughout the piece.
To begin the second half of the
program, the LSO will perform Felix
Mendelssohn’s “Symphony No. 5,”
known as the Reformation.
The selection was composed by
Mendelssohn in 1830 in honor of the
300th Anniversary of the Presentation
of the Augsburg Confession.
This symphony was
written for a full orchestra
and was Mendelssohn’s
second extended symphony. It was not published
until 1868, 21 years after
the composer’s death.
It is divided in four
movements, Andante-Allegro con fuoco, Allegro
vivace, Andante and Andante con
moto–Allegro.
Andante-Allegro con fuoco begins
with a slow introduction and is Mendelssohn’s version of the “Dresden
Amen” on the strings.
Allegro vivace, a B-flat major
scherzo, is very different in spirit
from the first movement, being much
lighter in tone.
Andante, in G minor, is a lyrical
piece primarily for the strings. There
are references to the “Dresden Amen.”
Andante con moto–Allegro is a
sonata form and is in 4/4 time. It is
based on Martin Luther’s chorale Ein
feste Burg ist unser Gott (A Mighty
Fortress Is Our God). At the very end
of the coda, a powerful version of Luther’s chorale is played by the entire
orchestra.
The Augsburg Confession is the
primary confession of faith used in
the Lutheran Church and one of the
most important documents of the
Protestant Reformation.
It was created to defend the Lutherans against misrepresentations
and to provide a statement of their
theology that would be acceptable to
the Roman Catholics of the time.

songs for more than 15 years.
Native to Seattle, Wash., Kingham has released five independent albums, his most recent being Smooth

8:15 p.m.
Hoover Auditorium
The Lakeside Symphony Orchestra (LSO), under the direction of Robert Cronquist, will present an evening
concert in Hoover Auditorium celebrating the 70th Anniversary of the
end of World War II.
The concert will feature soprano
Joan Ellison and a special Chautauqua Festival Chorus singing during
several selections. This LSO season
is supported by the Ohio Arts Council.
The Chautauqua Festival Chorus
is a group of singers from the Chautauqua Choir, Terra Choral Society
and regional church and community choirs. They will be performing
alongside the LSO during several of
the pieces featured during the concert. For more information about
joining the chorus, see “Community
News” on page 5.
To open the program, the LSO
will interpret “Overture to Egmont”
composed by Ludwig van Beethoven from 1809-1810. Following the
opening selection, the LSO will play
“American Salute” composed by
Morton Gould in 1942.
“If this is just the beginning,
Kingham is going to be a major
talent in the near future,” says Performing Songwriting Magazine.
Now based out of Nashville,
Tenn., he splits his time between
touring the country and writing, recording and producing.
Taking the music industry by a
storm, he has been touring nationally since 1997. Kingham has shared
the stage with stars such as Shawn
Colvin, Suzy Boguss, Joan Osborne, Michael McDonald, Doug
Stone, Jonathan Brooke and Vanessa
Carlton. He has also toured with Julio Inglesias, Jr.
Kingham is currently a band
member of Toad the Wet Sprocket, a
1990s alternative band, playing keyboard and steel guitar. He also regularly opens for the band as a soloist.
His songs have also been featured
on many T.V. shows and films, including the WB network’s hit show
“Felicity.”
Aside from his success as a touring artist, Kingham has won first
place honors in the National Telluride Troubadour Songwriting Contest, The Unisong International Song
Contest, as well as placing two years
in a row in the top five of the John
Lennon Song Contest.
Kingham received first place in
the USA Songwriting Competition
in the Folk Category and won the
Overall Grand Prize, beating out
more than 33,000 entries. He was
awarded first place in the Gospel
category of the International Songwriting Competition.
Shea Smith is also a veteran songwriter known for his singing voice
and impressive talents on the guitar
and keyboard.
As a Seattle native, he honed his
musical skillset through jazz studies at the University of Washington.
Since then, he has won multiple
songwriting awards and maintains a
steady touring schedule.
Shea Smith has released two albums, titled Guilty and Blue (2006)
and Stay Awhile (2010).
Sugar Hill Records, a label that
helped produce nine albums. Since
then, country music artists such
as Emmylou Harris, Tom T. Hall,
Kathy Mattea and Mary Chapin
Carpenter have covered some of the
duo’s original songs.
Between 1994-2000, Robin &
Linda Williams released an all-Gospel album that received two nominations for Gospel Album of the Year,
three CDs with original material and
an album in 2000, titled Company of
Strangers, which pushed them into an
all new audience of listeners.
Having always sung gospel music, the duo teamed up with their old
friend, Garrison Keillor, and bluegrass songstress Kate MacKenzie to
form The Hopeful Gospel Quartet for
a short time. This sideline ensemble
went on to release two albums and
tour the U.S., British Isles and Europe.
By 2004, the pair accepted a contract with their current independent
label, Red House Records. Together,
they recorded and released several albums, including a Christmas record,
a collection of their best live radio
performances, titled Radio Songs, and
their 22nd, and most recent album, titled Back 40.
Since their start, Robin & Linda
Williams have performed at the Grand
Ole Opry, Music City Tonight, Mountain Stage and Austin City Limits.
They have also toured with Their Fine
Group and Mary Chapin Carpenter.
Robin and Linda currently reside
in Middlebrook, Va., in the heart of
the Shenandoah Valley.
Next the LSO will play a
piece, titled “Gift of a Generation” composed by Michael
Shirtz.
Shirtz is a jazz singer/pianist, composer and conductor
known for his versatility with
jazz, contemporary and classical music audiences.
Following the selection, the
LSO will interpret “The Battle
Hymn of the Republic.” This
piece was created during the
American Civil War, when Julia Ward Howe watched troops
marching off to war singing
“John Brown’s Body.”
“John Brown’s Body” is a song
about a man who had been hung in
his efforts to free the slaves. Howe
was not satisfied with the original lyrics of the song, so she decided to insert her own feelings about the dreadful events of the time.
Next, the orchestra will perform
“Armed Forces Salute” by Robert Lowden and the “Navy Hymn,”
which is traditionally associated with
seafarers.
The original words were written as
a poem in 1860 by William Whiting
of Winchester, England. The poem
was written for a student who was
about to sail for the U.S. Later, the
piece was composed by the Rev. John
Bacchus Dykes.
The hymn is known as the “Navy
Hymn” because it is sung at the U.S.
Naval Academy in Annapolis, Md.
Next, the LSO will play the moving “Hymn to the Fallen,” which will
be performed as a memorial to all of
those who perished during the war.

the world’s most villainous antiheroes, Gru from “Despicable Me.”
Since the beginning of time, the
Minions have been in search for the
biggest and worst super villain in

keeping a master. From a Tyrannosaurs Rex to Napoleon Bonaparte,
the minions have a long history of
powerful, wicked bosses, but when
they are out of potential employers, they fall into a depression.
To get out of their evil-less
funk, Kevin, Bob and Stewart
(voice of Pierre Coffin) go on an
adventure to find a new leader. On
their journey, they come across the
malicious Scarlett Overkill (voice

Under the command of their
vile leader, the minion’s embark
on their greatest challenge to date,
saving all of Minion-kind.
“Ant-Man”

Lakeside’s Religious Life programs receive title changes
The Rev. Dr. Norman
“Ned” Dewire
Director of Religious Life &
Church Relations
This past off-season, the
Religious Life programs underwent changes in event titles that took effect during the
2015 Chautauqua summer
season.
The first change was renaming Chaplain of the Week
to Preacher of the Week.
The word chaplain denotes “pastoral services” to
someone by the chaplain.
Over the past two years,
Lakeside guest preachers
have asked, “What are my
chaplain duties?,” to which
Lakeside staff says none.
These guest preachers are at
Lakeside to preach and teach
within the community.
A second change was renaming Chaplain’s Hour to
Faith for Living Hour.
Decades ago, there was a
daily hour-long worship service each morning where the
guest chaplains would preach,
hymns were sung and prayers
were offered. This was the
major morning event, prior
to the expansion of religious
and education programs, and
nothing else was scheduled.
Lakeside invites experienced preachers of various
persuasions to share their
faith for living.
This season, Faith for Living Hour is held from 9:1510:15 a.m. Monday-Friday
in Orchestra Hall. For more
information about this week’s
Faith for Living Hour, refer to
the “This Week in Religious
Life” chart below.
Finally, Evening Prayer &
Praise was renamed to Vespers by the Lake. Lakeside
decided to return to the word
“vespers” to the event title.
Vespers by the Lake are
held at 8:15 p.m. Sunday
evenings on the Pavilion
West Deck and at 7:15 p.m.
Tuesday and Thursday evenings at the Steele Memorial
Bandstand (Gazebo in Central Park).The services will
start earlier as the sets earlier
in August.

Fitness classes offered
Fitness classes for people of all
fitness levels will be held each week
from 8-9 a.m. Monday, Wednesday
and Friday in the Upper Room. All
participants should bring water and
an exercise mat or towel.
Monday’s class, taught by Joanne
Hackett, will be Body Sculpting,
consisting of free-weight work and
core conditioning.
Some resistance work may use
bands, which will be provided by
the instructor. Hackett is a certified
fitness instructor with the American
Council on Exercise.
Laura Tyson will instruct classes
on Wednesday and Friday.
Wednesday’s
class
will
incorporate Pilates-based exercises
for all fitness levels. Through a
series of continuous “mindful”
movements that focus on the core
(lower back, abs and glutes), the
body is challenged through exercises
that improve posture, flexibility
and strength. Participants become
more aware of posture and body
movements, which translate to better
functionality.
Friday’s class will be a Barre
Above fitness class for all levels. The
ballet barre is used as a tool to help
with balance or grip, while practicing
tiny movements and focusing on
deep endurance muscles. Doing
high repetitions of small mindful
movements followed by deep
stretching, leaves participants feeling
a little more lengthened and allowing
them to stand a little taller.
Tyson is a certified personal
trainer through the American College
of Sports Medicine. She is a Bender
BarreTM certified instructor and has
certifications in Pilates and kickboxing through the YMCA.
Danbury swimming pool open
All Chautauqua Pass holders (Season and Daily Passes) may use the Danbury School swimming pool during lap swim and open swim, free of charge.

For $5, pass holders may participate in a Water Aerobics class from 8-9
a.m. and 10-11 a.m. everyday. Open swim is closed during Water Aerobics
classes. The Danbury School pool is open until Friday, Aug. 21.
Due to construction at Danbury School, guests are encouraged to enter the
building through the athletic lobby door, located near the football field. The
middle entrance, between the stadium and the school, will be closed.
Guests can purchase Auto Passes to park at Danbury School at the Lakeside
Chautauqua Welcome Center, 5th Street Gate or South Gate entrance.
Hatha Yoga
Yoga classes are held in the Upper Room, located on Second Street
above World Next Door, every Tuesday and Thursday until August 27.
Linda Green, BA, PTP is the certified instructor leading the classes.
She has been teaching yoga classes
for 33 years.
Experienced classes will take
place from 7:15-8:15 a.m. and basic
classes meet from 8:30-9:30 a.m.
Participants in the basic class will
be introduced to a variety of yoga positions and breathing exercises. The
experienced class will participate in
the sun salutation, shoulder stand and
hold postures for longer periods of
time.
Students in both classes need to
bring a floor mat and a beach towel
to put under their mat, should wear
comfortable clothes and should not
eat one hour prior to class. The classes begin on time, so please be courteous of others and arrive at least five
minutes early.
Class size will be limited to room
capacity. For more information, contact Linda Green at (419) 635-2337 or
[email protected].
Youth Tennis Program
The Williams Tennis Campus will offer a Youth Tennis Program for age 10
and under. This Lakeside program is lauded by tennis professionals around the
world and sanctioned by the United States Tennis Association (USTA) and the
International Tennis Federation (ITF).
The youth program introduces children to tennis by teaching the fundamentals. By using slower-moving and lower-bouncing balls, shorter and lighter
rackets and smaller courts, children of all ages will be able to grasp the fundamentals of tennis more easily and develop their skills more successfully.
Read the ‘Weekly Recreation’ table below for dates, times and locations.

shower area) from 8-8:30 a.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday.

Lakeside volunteer shares his passion Newly renovated Miniature Golf
Josh Hilgenberg
Course brings smiles to Lakesiders
Advancement &
Communications Intern
Tom Mueller, a long
time Lakesider, found that
he and his family simply
clicked with Lakeside
Chautauqua during their
first visit.
Mueller has served
Lakeside in more ways
than people can count on
two hands.
His experiences include helping with the
Midwest Birding Symposium, Property Owner’s
Manual, Capital Campaign, serving on the Board
of Directors,and even
weeding at the Memorial
Garden, just to name a few.
Volunteering is sacred
to Mueller, and though it
might seem tedious to others, he says that “it is a labor of love.”
Mueller’s wife was the
second loved one placed in
The Memorial Garden at
Chautauqua Park. It is only
appropriate that she has her
ashes in Lakeside because
she “truly embodied Lakeside.”
For the Mueller family, the garden serves as a

Communications Intern
spiritual anchor. The family
comes to Lakeside not only
to relax and enjoy themselves, but to reconnect
with each other.
When Mueller’s three
sons visit, they make a
point to go to the memorial
garden.
They bring the dog and
let it drink out of the small
trough; they talk to the other
people there, and celebrate
life at Lakeside. It “helps
the soul,” states Mueller.
Mueller realizes that
these things do not happen
without work. He believes
that “if you sincerely like
something, you do some-
PLAN,
continued from page 1
Through these touchpoints, the
community is identifying critical
needs and opportunities connected
with the five strategic goals. Lakesiders have voiced the importance and
appreciation of the Chautauqua program and the safety and freedom of
all visiting.
One Lakesider commented specifically on Lakeside’s commitment to
the Christian principles of faith, saying “There are so many other places
for families to go stay for vacations,
but only a place like Lakeside is devoted to encouraging spiritual growth.
This makes Lakeside a unique place
for families with young children and
also for adults of any age who want
that environment.”
Lakesiders also feel that the values
and traditions are vital to the Lakeside
thing for it.”
Lakeside does not exist
just because it is Lakeside,
it exists because people
like Tom put so much time
and love into it.
The Chautauqua experience would not be possible
without the help of all of
Lakeside’s volunteers.
Lakeside values people
like Tom Mueller and others who devote their time
and talents.

experience. They also identified and
affirmed that the historic buildings
and the beautiful gardens and grounds
are important.
Another Lakesider noted, “Lakeside maintains 47 structures and more
than 10 miles of roads, and it is important that Lakeside preserve the
historic structures and continues to
evolve.”
In addition, Lakesiders appreciate
the transparency. One Lakesider commented, “Transparency is happening
today. For 140 years there was no
transparency. It cuts down the gossip
when there are forums, dessert receptions and round table discussions.”
Lakeside will continue to collect
feedback over the next few months,
as well as the next two years, through
surveys, social media and blog comments, community forums and roundtable discussions to develop a master
plan.
To Carolyn McDaniel, miniature golf at Lakeside is more than
a simple game. She started working at the golf course 14 years
ago, and she has loved it ever
since.
McDaniel is a second generation Lakesider, and her mother
told her she’s been coming since
before she was born. Her parents
brought their church groups to
Lakeside, and even built a cottage
in 1914.
By working at the golf course,
McDaniel carries on the Lakeside
tradition for her parents.
She assigns working hours,
trains workers and ensures they
have all the supplies they need.
McDaniel cherishes the time she
spends with her young workers,
who she calls wonderful.
She loves watching them
grow up, work through college, and sometimes even
bring their own families back
to Lakeside. The progress they
make is exciting to McDaniel,
and she is a constant encourager.
McDaniel admires that the
The Board will review the comprehensive information at upcoming
meetings to begin the development of
a master plan. The master plan will
provide a framework for sustainable
development and preservation within
the Lakeside community, including
buildings, landscape, open spaces and
infrastructure.
The development of a master plan
is a critical component for Lakeside’s
future to ensure that the design of the
grounds and facilities continue to support Lakeside’s mission and five strategic goals.
Lakeside Chautauqua will continue to provide transparency to guests
and residents by posting updates on
the website at www.lakesideohio.

Front Porch blog and on social media
through the off-season. We invite you
to join these communication channels

course serves as a place for families to spend time together with
no interruptions. She said that she
always hears laughter and encouragement from the golfers, and the
renovations have only added to the
excitement. People comment on
how impressed they are by the improvements constantly, according
to McDaniel.
“Nicest improvement to miniature golf in the 45 years I’ve
been playing here. My six year old
grandson even commented on the
updates,” said one Lakesider.
On and off the course, McDaniel loves the things mini-golf does.
She is not only able to watch families grow and spend time together,
but she also cares deeply for her
workers.
Lakeside Chautauqua is thankful for friends like McDaniel who
directly benefit from the Chautauqua pillars and encourage others to
do the same.
