DELHI TOWNSHIP -—About 300people showed up at Veterans Memo-rial Park July 29 to begin a new sum-mer concert series.
For the first time in Music in theGarden’s three years, a show wascancelled because of rain two weeksago.
It was supposed to be the firstshow, but nature happens.
The Holt Community Arts Councilplans to make up the concert and ex-tend the summertime fun for an ex-tra week, arts council president KaraHope said.
“The Blue Coyote Band was sched-uled to kick off the free concert se-ries last Thursday,” she said.
“But fairly heavy rain in the hoursleading up to the show made settingup the sound equipment unsafe.”
“Apparently, Blue Coyote fans fromthe Detroit area and Indiana wereplanning on coming to Holt for thisshow,” Hope said. “It promised to bea really big start to this year’s series.Now, it’ll be a big ending to the se-ries.”
The make-up show has been setfor Wednesday, Aug. 18, at 7 p.m.in Veterans Memorial Gardens. Thatmakes the last show the only showthat is not on a Thursday.
“Hopefully, with three shows pre-ceding the Blue Coyote Band show,we’ll have enough time to get theword out,” Hope said.
The Blue Coyote Band is Music inthe Garden’s first country act. Thegroup includes members from Lan-sing and Holt and has opened for
country stars like Tim McGraw, Tra-vis Tritt, and Leanne Rimes.
To kick things off instead, Jazz leg-ends Sunny Wilkinson and Ron New-man played on July 29. This duo hasplayed nationally, and Wilkinson hassung with the Count Basie Band and
Boss Brass, among others.On August 5, local favorites the
Sea Cruisers will bring their uniqueblend of rock ‘n’ roll from the 1950s,1960s, and 1970s.
Those Delta Rhythm Kings returnto the ‘Garden’ on Aug. 12. The Kingsplayed Music in the Garden’s first sea-son, and they were a hit, Hope said.They play jump blues and “little bigband” music from the 1940s.
All shows are family friendly andfree of charge. Concessions will beavailable. Shows begin at 7 p.m.

Who puts it on?Music in the Garden is in
its third year, but many whoenjoy the free concert se-ries might not know muchabout the group that makesthe concerts possible.
And who is that group?It’s the Holt CommunityArts Council, a non-profitorganization that formedhere in Holt in 2008.
“We’re all unpaid volun-teers - we’re people wholove our community andwant to use the arts to makeit a more beautiful, enjoy-able place to live,” saidfounding President KaraHope. “Now that we’rein our third year of Musicin the Garden and it’s run-ning really well, we can fo-cus on meeting people fromthe community, letting themknow what we do, and howthey can get involved.”
The Arts Council oftenneeds additional volunteersto help plan and run its
events, like Music in theGarden.
“Our board is really dedi-cated and hardworking, andthe Arts Council has man-aged to do a tremendousjob with this relatively smallcore group,” Hope said.“But we’d really love tohave more community in-volvement.”
The Arts Council alsohas two openings on itsboard, which meets on thefourth Tuesday of everymonth at 8 p.m. in the Del-hi Township DDA meetingroom. Interested applicantscan send a letter of inter-est and resume to the HoltCommunity Arts Council atP.O. Box 231, Holt, Michi-gan 48842, or via email [email protected].
“Sometimes people say,‘Well, I’m not very artisticor creative, so I don’t knowwhat I could do’,” Hopesaid. “But that’s ok. Youdon’t necessarily have tobe artistic to contribute towhat we do. You just haveto believe in what we do.”

Ammon said this deci-
sion would save the town-ship about $55,000 peryear.
He has been treasurerfor 11 years.
“This was the first jobthat I really looked forwardto in the morning,” Ammonsaid.
Township trustees areexpected to vote on thechange in November. If ap-proved, the change wouldbe effective Jan. 1, 2011.
“This is a very unselfishdecision from a very dedi-cated man,” Township Su-pervisor Stuart Goodrich.
Ammon said accordingto state statue only the cur-rent treasurer can makesuch a decision.
He said he expects hissalary to be cut to $22,000per year, and will also liveoff full social security ben-efits and his 401k.

Ammon: Change will save $55K
The war of words contin-ued last week, as “no” votefliers were placed in mail-boxes and both sides pushedinformation.
One said the townshipspent $10,000 on cell phone
use last year, which was clar-ified by Township Supervi-sor Stuart Goodrich.
“It should be noted thatthe information concerningcell phone use is incorrect,”he said.

General Manager J. Peter Lark joinedthe BWL’s Board of Commissioners in com-mending Bishop for more than four decadesof dedicated, exemplary service. Bishopwill retire on July 30.
“It is no exaggeration to say that Bev-erly Bishop is an institution in our compa-ny,” Lark said. “When she began work at theBWL, Lyndon Johnson was president, man-kind would not set foot on the moon for an-other four years, and MSU’s football teamwas still months away from claiming thefirst of two consecutive national titles.
“Beverly has witnessed – and has been
a part of – more than a third of the BWL’s125-year history,” Lark added. “Throughoutit all, her high degree of professionalismand peerless work ethic has been an inspi-ration,” Lark said.
At a Board of Commissioners meetingTuesday, Bishop was presented a commem-orative plaque by Lark and BWL commis-sioners.
Bishop will be honored at a company-wide reception on Thursday, July 29.
Among her many community servicecontributions, Bishop has served as theBWL coordinator for volunteer assignmentswith Meals on Wheels.
In 1999, she joined NALS, the associa-tion for legal professionals. In April 2010,Bishop was installed as President of theMichigan Chapter of NALS.

DIMONDALE — For halfa century, residents of Hart-land Drive have been get-ting mail delivered to theirhomes — just like you andme.
That, apparently, willsoon come to an end. Oc-cupants of the eight homeson the half-mile-long drive,which sprouts from HartHighway, near Dimondale,recently received copies of aletter signed by DimondalePostmaster Joanne Kovacs,which said, in part:
“Providing mail deliveryin the most efficient man-ner possible is the primarygoal of our employees. Alongwith this is a paramountconcern for the safety of ouremployees … Delivery areaswhere employees must ac-cess one-lane roads leads topotential … head-on colli-sions and backing situationswith all of the adherent risksassociated with such.”
Home delivery, the lettersaid, will end Aug. 13.
Same roadJoseph Vogt, a Hartland
Drive resident for 30 years,won’t give it up without afight. He pointed out, for
starters, that the configura-tion of Hartland — which in-cludes a 90-degree bend —is the same as it’s alwaysbeen.
Vogt further noted thathe and his neighbors receivethree different newspapersand trash pick-up, as well asUPS and FedEx deliveries.
So, why the Postal Ser-vice’s sudden concern forthe safety of its carriers?Here’s Vogt’s version of theexplanation, from a letter hesent me:
“(Postmaster) Kovacstold me … that his actionwas the consequence of anaccident on our road involv-ing the newest driver of postoffice delivery trucks.”
Local Postal Servicespokeswoman Sabrina Toddacknowledged Thursdaythat the accident involvingthe carrier was the laststraw, but added that carri-ers have had their share ofnear misses on the road.
Todd also argued thatHartland, a private drive, isnot always adequately main-tained. She called it “an ac-cident waiting to happen.”
Proposed optionsIn the letter from Kovacs,
the alternatives to home de-
livery were presented as fol-lows:
• Renting post office box-es.
• Clustering the residen-tial mailboxes on Hart High-way.
Todd mentioned a pos-sible compromise —cluster-ing the boxes at a saferlocation on Hartland.
Vogt, who was impressedby neither the two options,nor the compromise, wrote:
“We propose, as a solu-tion to the problem, the in-stallation of a large convexmirror at the 90-degree turnon our road … We would behappy to install a mirror atour expense …”
Vogt said he and hisneighbors also would pledgeto always give mail trucksthe right of way.
He added: “Terminationof mail delivery to our homeswould impose a severe hard-ship … We request a delay ofthe Aug. 13 deadline whilethe situation is investigatedby state, local, federal, andtownship officials.”

One of the men beingsought, 32-year-old CharlesKunta Lewis, is the fatherof a 13-year-old who hadpreviously been arrested inconnection with last week’sshooting.
Another suspect is a for-mer boyfriend of the victimand a friend of the victim’sbrother. Two other suspectsare brothers. Charges in-clude open murder, homeinvasion, conspiracy and fel-ony weapons possession.
Lansing police spokes-man Lt. Noel Garcia saidmore arrests could be forth-coming.
“Our concern is that any-one responsible be broughtforward, and that’s whatwe’re doing,” he said.
The suspects are accusedof shooting 2008 Holt HighSchool graduate ShaylaJohnson to death with hand-guns and an AK-47 assaultrifle during a home invasionin the 600 block of LenoreStreet around 10:50 p.m. Fri-day.
“They were all there.They all knew it was goingto happen,” Garcia said.
Lewis and Demetris Mar-tel Kline, 18, are both wantedon charges of open murder,armed robbery, home inva-sion in the first degree andfelony firearm possession.
Three other men, 18-year-old Dion Lanier and broth-ers 21-year-old Walee al-Dinand 22-year-old Mustafa al-Din, have also been chargedin the home invasion andkilling.
Also arrested was a13-year-old boy, the son ofLewis.
“We’ll ask that he be des-ignated as an adult, but thatwill be up to the court to de-termine,” Dunnings said.
A preliminary hearing forLanier and the al-Dins is setfor Aug. 5. The hearing de-termines if there is enoughevidence for a trial.
Two other suspects, Ral-phael Remier Crenshaw, 20,and Nicholas Bryce Brown,19, were arraigned Wednes-day and face a pretrialconference Monday and apreliminary examinationAug. 5.
Garcia said the policesuspect drugs were a mo-tive in the home invasion,but said he couldn’t get intothe case’s specifics.
At least one of the sus-pects, Lanier, knew the vic-
tim.He had dated her shortly
about two years ago.With six people behind
bars and another two beingsought, Johnson’s neighbor,Debbi Foster, 42, said she’sfeeling safer at home.
Foster said she heardthe shooting Friday nightand saw people fleeing thescene.
“It was nerve-wrackingbecause we didn’t know ifwe’d been seen or if theywould come back,” shesaid.
Now the neighborhoodis returning to normal, shesaid.
“I’ve lived here for morethan 20 years and I’ve feltsafe here, for the most part,”she said.

Ingham County 4-H FairAugust 2 - 7
700 E. Ash St., Mason
www.inghamfair.org
MASON — Led by first-year Ex-ecutive Director Barb Hensinger, theIngham County Fair has a mission.
“We wanted to offer a lot of enter-tainment for the price of admission,”Hensinger said.
The result: Ingham County fair-go-ers will not have to pay extra to seedaily grandstand events this year.
Events like the tractor pulls, fig-ure eight demolition derby and SJOSupercross will not cost extra.
The admission cost, which is $8for adults and $5 for children and se-niors, is the only price to pay thisyear for grandstand shows as well asother offerings, Hensinger said.
“We allow people to bring theirown lunch and that along with our4-H exhibits and entertainment at theShirley Clark Pavilion, there will be alot to see for the price of admission,”she said.
Michigan’s struggling economyhas had an impact on county fairsrecently. Along with that, Hensingersaid there is pressure to make surethe fair ends up in the black becauseof Ingham County’s tight finances.
Hensinger, however, is no strang-
er to county fairs. A Mason resident,she is the division director of fair, rac-ing and exhibitions under the Michi-gan Department of Agriculture.
Hensinger said other new thingsto see at the fair this year include a“Guitar Hero” contest on Aug. 3, 4and 5.
There will also be “The Zone,”which will feature Laser Tag anda special “Laser Vault” obstaclecourse.
“It’s kind of like a James Bondtype of thing,” she said.
Hensinger said there will also bea “Fitness Challenge” that will allowfair-goers to throw medicine ballsand compete in a standing long jumpagainst each other.
“We’ll have our popular pettingzoo and shows for the little ones ev-eryday as well,” she said.
The idea was to offer a lot of funfor a low price for those that want tosave money and can’t afford to trav-el, she said.
Also new this year is a refresh-ment tent, where beer will be servedin a designated and monitored area.
The tent was approved by countycommissioners in June in the hopesof raising more funds for the fair andattracting more people.
Entertainment value is key for county fairBy WILL [email protected]
The Ingham County Fair in Mason has been a county event for over 150 years and includesa variety of fun. Officials say there are many things to do for the ow price of admission.

MASON — For many, go-ing to the Ingham CountyFair each year means onething: The thrill of carnivalrides.
Every summer, riderschallenge their courage andstomachs on rides that whirl,spin and fly.
A new ride this yearpromises to ad a new di-mension to the midway,according to amusementrepresentatives
It’s called “The Vertigo.”“It’s a ‘swing’ ride, but
its 80 feet in the air,” saidSonja Skerbeck of SkerbeckBrothers Amusements.
The company has beenproviding the midway atthe Ingham County Fair for
years and is excited aboutits newest piece.
“This ride is a unique ex-perience,” Skerbeck said. “Ithas a broader appeal.”
Riders begin at the basein a swing and are pulled up80 feet as they rotate.
“It’s a great view upthere,” Skerbeck said. “I re-late it to a large ferris wheel,
but with a new direction.”Skerbeck said the ride is
fun, but at the same time notas aggresive, which meansless people fear it.
“It has been wildly popu-lar so far,” she said.
The company bought itfor $600,000 from an amuse-ment manufacturer in Ohio.
She said as far as she
knows, the ride will be theonly one of its kind in Michi-gan.
She said the company in-vests in a new ride or re-furbishment of a classic ridealmost every year.
She said when planningThe Ingham County Fair’smidway, the long, narrowspace usually lend itself toonly certain types of rides.
“We rotate them when wecan,” she said. “Of course,we will always have our usu-al arsenal like Gravitron andthe Tilt-a-Whirl.”
Right: The Vertigo will befeatured at the InghamCounty Fair this year. Thenew ride is 85 feet high.

millages would be 3.007 mills. That’s just more than $3per $1,000 of taxable value on a property.
The tax affects residents in Lansing and East Lansingand the townships of Meridian, Lansing and Delhi.
It would generate about $18 million in its first year,which is roughly 46 percent of CATA’s total expected bud-get of $39 million in 2011. The remainder of the budgetrevenue is generated through state and federal grants andthrough local fares and contracts.
Ingham CountyIngham voters will decide whether to approve 0.48
mills in millage renewals to help pay for public transpor-tation, largely for the elderly and disabled.
That’s 48 cents per $1,000 of taxable value.The Capital Area Transportation Authority typically
contracts with the county to provide the service, so mostof the estimated $3.6 million that would be raised in 2011likely would go to CATA. Technically, though, InghamCounty officials are putting the ballot item up for a vote.
The millage is a renewal of two other taxes — 0.4 millsand 0.08 mills — that expire this year. Voting yes in theAugust primary would guarantee a continuation of thetaxes through 2015.
EATRANThe Eaton County Transportation Authority wants coun-
ty voters to approve an increase in property taxes of 0.5mills for five years beginning in 2012.
That’s 50 cents per $1,000 of taxable property value.The goal is to provide fixed bus routes similar to what
CATA offers in Ingham County and for buses to be acces-sible at various hours. And it would bring the total millagefor bus service in the county to 0.75 mills.
The entire millage of 0.75 would raise about $2.6 millionin the first year.
Three fixed routes are planned for Delta Township:• West Saginaw Highway from Waverly Road to Market-
place Boulevard.• Canal Road-Creyts Road loop.• Creyts Road-Snow Road loop.Four additional fixed routes would link Delta Township,
Eaton Rapids, Charlotte and Grand Ledge.Hubs are planned for the Lansing Mall, Marketplace Bou-
levard and an as yet undefined location in Charlotte and Ea-ton Rapids.
EATRAN also would extend hours. New hours would be5:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. weekdays. Weekend hours haven’t
been set.
Key proposals joining candidates on Aug. 3 ballotOn Aug. 3, mid-Michigan voters go to the polls to make
key choices in primary races and important decisions onhow local money gets spent.
Ballot issues for the region include money for publictransportation and for libraries and parks. Here is a run-down of some of the key issues many voters will decide.
CADLThe Capital Area District Library wants voters to re-
new the library’s annual tax.Officials say the tax wouldn’t exceed 1.56 mills or $1.56
per $1,000 of taxable property value through 2013, and itwould be used to continue current library services.
Without it, officialssay, the library systemwould shut down Jan.3 and remain shutdown unless operation-al funding were to beapproved.
CADL says that al-most 90 percent of itsannual funding tendsto come from the mill-age.
The levy would generate an estimated $10.1 million forCADL in its first year. Library officials say that due to fall-ing property values in the region, renewing the existingmillage still would result in a decrease in revenue for thelibrary system.
CATAThe Capital Area Transportation Authority is asking
voters to renew two millages that would continue servic-es from 2011 to 2015.
A yes vote would roll together two existing millages.The first is 2.22 mills, which expires this year. The secondis a tax of 0.787 mills that ends in 2012. Combined, the

MASON — Julie Galbavi of Lan-sing starting cycling a year ago. Likemany beginning athletes, she wantsto work her way up to better perfor-mance.
Participating in the 30th AnnualWomen on Wheels bicycle tour onJuly 24 was one step toward this goal.
The tour, which emphasized pro-viding a welcoming environment forwomen and novice riders to developconfidence in their road-riding skills,departed from Mason High Schooland separated into three routes mea-suring 17, 32 and 50 miles.
The weather didn’t completely co-operate on tour day, with rain fallingon the participants.
The event drew about 150 regis-tered riders, according to Adreah Sax-ton, ride director.
Saxton said the rain kept awaythe riders, who usually number about400, away this year.
“This is unusual for us to have theweather we did,” said Katie Donnelly,tour spokesperson.
That didn’t stop Galbavi from rid-ing.
“As long as it was warm, it wasn’tbad in the rain,” said Galbavi, whoalso liked the “fruit stops” along theway.
The event was organized by theTri-County Bicycle Association, basedin Lansing.
TCBA also hosts the Dick AllenLansing to Mackinaw (DALMAC) tourheld annually over Labor Day week-end.
Proceeds from the DALMAC tourhave allowed The DALMAC Fund togrant over $900,000 to bicycled-relat-ed groups and causes in the statesince 1975.
Longtime riderThe tour also wasn’t just for wom-
en only.Bob Gibbs of Okemos rode —
which probably wasn’t surprising, giv-en that he’s cycled for 80 years.
That’s eight decades, which in-cluded Gibbs riding on bicycles withwooden rims in the early years.
Gibbs, who will turn 92 this Sep-tember, typically rides five miles ev-ery evening.
He likes the physical effects thatriding a bike can afford.
“It lets you breathe easier,” Gibbssaid.
Of course, there are visual advan-tages to riding in tours such as theWomen on Wheels event.
“I like agriculture,” Gibbs said.“I like to see what’s growing.”
Bike enthusiasm uncurbed

LANSING — With themonth of July behind us,American Red Cross offi-cials would like to thank ev-eryone who has attemptedto donate blood this summerand encourages all eligibledonors to make an appoint-ment before summer’s end.

For example, at least1,000 kids signed up throughthe branch’s summer read-ing program.
“We’re keeping busy,” shesaid. “Summer is a busy timeof year anyway, particularlywith summer reading pro-grams going on, so we’ve
seen a steady flow of traf-fic.”

MERIDIAN TWP. - Howdo you measure the value ofpublic library access?
It ranks high for Haslettresident Sabrina Jenkins andher two sons, 9-year-old Cor-mac and 6-year-old Weston.
“We spend an unbeliev-able amount of time at thelibrary,” Jenkins said.
Getting a Capital AreaDistrict Library card was oneof the first things the familydid when they lived in Lan-sing, and the Haslett branchwas one of their first desti-nations when they moved tothe east side of town.
“We were new in town.It was the perfect place tomeet people, get out of thehouse and have somethingto do - and it was free!” Jen-kins said.
As a child, Jenkins had anaunt who served as the headlibrarian in Island Heights,N.J., near Toms River.
“I’ve been using the pub-lic library since I first start-ed reading,” she said.
“I can’t imagine what lifewould be like without a li-brary.”
Life without a library maybecome a reality for mid-Michigan residents if a mill-age renewal request byCADL is rejected by voterson Tuesday, Aug. 3.
The 1.56 mills, if ap-proved, would fund CADLoperations for four moreyears. One mill equals $1 per$1,000 of state equalized val-ue.
Nearly 90 percent ofCADL’s funding comes fromthe millage. Because ofdeclining property values,CADL director Lance Wernersaid even a renewed millagewill generate $600,000 lessfor the system’s 13 branch-es.
Funding crucialShould the millage not
pass, the branches and book-mobiles would close on Jan.3, 2011.
Betsy Hull has been atthe helm of the Hope BorbasOkemos branch for a scantfour months, but she has al-ready seen how much herbranch’s patrons use their li-brary.

ly served as the library di-rector for the CommunityDistrict Library, a seven-branch system in Shiawas-see County.
Heavy useShe’s a passionate de-
fender of libraries and theirvalue to their communities,like Holt.
“Throughout the district- and the numbers will bearthis out in any one of ourbranches - they are busyplaces heavily used by thepeople in their communityfor a variety of reasons,”Hull said.
“Computers, programs,
reading material - you nameit. The idea that libraries aredead is mistaken, and thefoot traffic bears that out.”
Circulation of many typesof materials continues togrow, Hull said, notably au-dio books, DVDs and e-books.
The branch has also beena resource for people look-ing for jobs online or whoneed help polishing their re-sumes or drafting a businessplan.
Library staffers have alsohelped older job-seekers de-velop and refine their com-puter skills.
Hull has volunteered hertime on the campaign, andsaid people have been re-
spectful - at the very least,interested and polite.
“I haven’t gotten any neg-ative comments from peo-ple. They might have ignoredme or not taken literature,but I think they are awareof the value they are gettingfor their library,” she said.
“Even if they don’t usefor themselves, they see itfor their community.”
Although it is one of thesmallest branches in CADL’ssystem, Haslett’s use contin-ues to outstrip its size.
There’s something hap-pening all the time, Hasletthead librarian Ann Chap-man said, from story timefor young readers to com-puter use by job seekers.
