“Listen to the customer”has been the mantra ofFountain Blu owners Chuckand Sally Kemp, now cele-brating their 20th year.

Located in Eagle River,Fountain Blu has some-thing for everyone. With se-lections ranging from EagleRiver apparel to a line ofFairy figurines, somethingnew can always be found.

Upon arrival in theunique store, the first thing

noticed is the array ofwildlife and Eagle Riverclothing. With what seemslike the entire animal king-dom being represented, cus-tomers can find T-shirts fea-turing everything frommountain lions and mooseto wolves and eagles.

The newly expandedpolar fleece section willkeep visitors warm on thosecool summer evenings. Witha variety of styles, colors

and sizes, these sleekfleeces are a beautiful addi-tion to any wardrobe.

For the wine connois-seur, new to Fountain Bluare handcrafted wine cad-dies and cork baskets.

These metal pieces of artgive wine a unique person-ality and protect the bever-age from any harm. Withshapes such as lighthousesand knights, these caddieshave been flying off theshelves.

The new cork basketscan be a great two-in-onegift for a friend. The bottle-shaped basket opens so thata new bottle of wine can beinserted and presented.After the wine has been re-moved and enjoyed, the re-maining cage holds corksand creates a beautiful cen-terpiece. Barrel, house andother shapes are available.

For chefs and barbe-cuers alike, an assortmentof cookbooks and utensilswill allow visitors to takethe rustic flavor of theNorth Woods home withthem.

The unique store fea-tures Tervis Tumbler cupsthat come in five differentsizes. The 24-ounce cup hasa tapered base so that itwill fit in most car and boatcup holders. Each one ofthese quality tumblers hasa lifetime guarantee andcomes double layered tostop condensation.

If a Tervis Tumbler isdropped in the water, noone is to worry. These glass-es float, making them per-fect for a summer cruise onthe boat.

Faerie Glen fairy andangel figurines can befound at Fountain Blu. The

collection includes manylimited-edition items whichwill be retired when the al-lotment is sold. A gift ofthese popular products issure to bring a smile.

Quality wooden jewelryboxes, jewelry and bath andbody products line theshelves of the store.

A large selection offramed artwork is availableas well as an assortment ofmetal wall art. These piecescan complete any room.

How better to pledge

your allegiance or decorateyour house than with one ofFountain Blu’s flags? Withtradi- tional selections suchas Old Glory to flags withkittens and butterflies,these quality banners in-stantly make a statement.

“Because we’re alwayschanging merchandise andgetting new items in, we’vealways got some extras tomove into the half-pricearea,” Chuck said. “You canfind a good bargain onitems in this section.”

According to the Kemps,Fountain Blu has variety inits heritage. Before thestore was opened, a five-and- dime store occupiedthe space. The store soldtrinkets for no more than10 cents. The Kemps try tokeep that same variety andfair pricing alive withFountain Blu, as they con-tinue to evolve.

Fountain Blu is opendaily at 9:30 a.m. Call (715)479- 6312 for more infor-mation.

Eagle Falls AdventureGolf is owned and operatedby Mark and KarenCropsey and their children,Zach and Emily, of St. Ger-main. They have been inthe area 14 years, manag-ing vacation properties andrentals.

Eagle Falls, located inEagle River, is in its sixthseason. Construction for anew laser tag arena willbegin fall 2013.

The theme of the courseis a 1950s fishing camp.Golfers putt their wayaround a fishing cabin, abait shop and a fishingdock.

“We wanted to create amini golf course that waschallenging and interac-tive,” said Mark Cropsey.

Golfers can make sever-al choices throughout thecourse. For example, theycan cross the river bybridge or stepping stones,descend the ranger towerby stairs or slide, and manyholes have multiple options

for play.The Cropseys are al-

ways working hard tochange and improve thecourse. The landscaping isconstantly maintained andupdated to keep the coursefresh and exciting for thegolfers.

“People discover some-thing new each time theycome to the course,” saidMark Cropsey. If you lookclose, hole No. 5 is in theshape of a giant muskiewhere you tee off at the tailand putt past the fin rockformations. The muskie’seye is the cup.

“We wanted to build acourse that was differentfrom the normal mini golfcourse,” said KarenCropsey. “Something sym-bolic was needed to high-light the area. Therefore,the main rock formationand waterfall features aneagle’s head.”

In addition to the cas-cading waterfalls, thecourse also includes lakes,

rivers and fountains.“We wanted the water

features to really standout,” explained MarkCropsey. “The course has20,000 gallons of water.”

This year players willsee water trickling downthe new water tower fea-ture by hole’s No. 1 and No.2 into a nearby pond.

Also featured is a yellowcanoe planted full of beau-tiful flowers along the sideof the course.

After finishing a round,golfers have the chance towin a free game on the 18thhole, humorously called“Nature Calls.” The holefeatures a talking outhousethat has become a fun fea-ture of the course. The out-house comments on golfers’shots and then flushes if afree game is won.

Any free passes given byEagle Falls will never ex-pire, so customers can usethem at their own conve-nience.

Eagle Falls Adventure

#1Recently, the Small Business Institute/Small Business

Administra tion/UW System conducted anonymous indepen -dent surveys of pizza customers of the 11 major pizza res -taurants in the Eagle River area. The survey considered qual-ity of food, cleanliness, service and atmosphere. Alexander’sFamily Pizza was rated #1!

“Out of 11 restaurants mentioned — Alexander’s wasranked number 1,” an independent was second, and a nation-al chain was third, “both far behind in customer choice.”

Alexander’s was found to “offer a quality product at areasonable price. According to the survey, quality has provento be of more importance to the customer. Alexander’s hasexcellent pizza. It uses the highest quality ingredients.”

Alexander’s Family Pizza wishes to thank all the manypeople who participated in the surveys. We truly appreciatethe fact that our long-term goal of wanting to be known forquality pizza has been realized.

“It’s the first stop wemake when we come toEagle River,” said one visi-tor who’s been shopping atGrandma’s Toy Box since itopened four years ago.

Why is Grandma’s ToyBox so popular? OwnerKathy Holperin attributesthe store’s success to the of-fering of traditional andhard-to-find items.

“I choose games, puzzles,toys and stuffed animalsfor their educational valueand appeal, not only to chil-dren but to adults as well,”explained Holperin. “As aresult, many say that myproducts are a big hit withfamilies. And my cus-tomers’ suggestions havehelped me expand over thepast four years.”

Outdoor items such aspogo sticks, stilts, ridingtoys and scooters are popu-lar in summer. Water toysfeatured are the ball thatbounces on water, the flyingdisc that sails across thebeach and water shootersthat boaters can use to am-bush other boaters.

For rainy days andevenings with family andfriends, the store’s game de-partment can please visi-tors and year-round resi-dents alike.

“Some of our new offer-ings this year includeTelestrations, Stratego,Quelf, Electronic CatchPhrase and Beat the Par-ents,” said Holperin, “These

and other new games areadded when customers re-quest them. We also spe-cialize in games which aregreat for rides to and fromthe North Woods.”

Many games and novel-ty toys are available forcustomers to try out, a rea-son why a visit to Grand-ma’s Toy Box can be an en-joyable and memorable ex-perience in itself.

Customers remembertrying out the Jack-in-the-

Box, pulling the mice out ofthe stretchy cheese, balanc-ing the eagle on their fin-ger, and trying to solve thegiant Rush Hour gamechallenges.

One of the most interest-ing sections at Grandma’sToy Box is the rock depart-ment.

Rock hounds of all agesare delighted to find roughand polished amethyst, pet-rified wood, agates andgeodes which they cancrack themselves to findamazing crystals.

The true geologist isthrilled to find rare dato-lite, peridot, Michigan cop-per, rough Montana agateand much more.

Puppets are a wonderfulway to encourage childrento share their feelings. Theselection of puppets foundat Grandma’s Toy Box is

considerable. Visitors mayfind adorable North Woodsanimal puppets such asbaby bears, a wolf insheep’s clothing, frogs, rac-coons, skunks and rabbits.

New this season areSesame Street puppets anddolls. Children can sharestories with Snuffleupagus,Abby Cadabby and, ofcourse, Grover, Bert andErnie.

Open seven days a week,Grandma’s Toy Box is locat-ed across from the VilasCinema 5. Visitors will besuprised to see such varietyin a specialty store. And atoy or game from Grand-ma’s Toy Box can make onethe hit of any party!
