South Haven Flywheelers Antique Engine & Tractor Show
The Michigan Flywheelers Museum will host its 24th annual Antique Tractor and Engine Show starting Sept. 6-Sept 9.
One of the highlights of our show is the South Haven Tractor Cruise. Over 130 tractors participate in this event which travels the back roads to beautiful Lake Michigan and then downtown South Haven. Line-up begins on Thursday at 4 p.m. in front of the office. Your tractor must be able to go at least 10 mph, have a slow moving vehicle sign and a full gas tank. The trip will travel through downtown South Haven to South Beach and then to the Huron Street parking lot. There, we will stop for dinner before returning back to the showgrounds. The cruise is a police escorted trip with law enforcement blocking intersections. We ask everyone to stay as close together as possible to prevent large gaps. If someone stalls, please go around and try to catch up. The return trip is also police-escorted, so we encourage everyone to leave at the same time.
One of the largest shows of its kind in the state, the four day event will draw antique farm equipment collectors from all over the United States.
Giant steel steam traction engines, old antique tractors, parades, and live musical entertainment are just a few of the things visitors can see during the show which runs until Sunday, Sept. 9 at 4 p.m.
Besides displays of antique farm equipment, there will be demonstrations at the sawmill, shingle mill and blacksmith shop along with exhibits in Old Towne. Patterned after a 1920s rural village, Old Towne features places like Old Tyme Jail, Abbert & Sons Farm Machinery Repair Shop, a migrant farm camp and a handbuilt log cabin.
Not only does the show have plenty of displays to see, it has lots of activities. Daily parades, antique and lawn tractor pulls, a large outdoor flea market featuring crafts, antiques and items for the home, plenty of old fashioned music, consignment auction on Sunday and valve cover racing.
Evening entertainment line up includes singer Carl Payne on Thursday, Black River Band on Friday and country music by the Bronk Bros. on Saturday. All evening shows begin at 8:30 p.m.
During the day, musical jam sessions and folk musician Joe Foster will be performing in the Stephenson Barn. The Casco Band will take the stage at 4 p.m. on Saturday.
Saturday is considered “Kid’s Day” at the show. Activities start with Valve Cover Races at 9:30 a.m. followed by Kiddies Pedal Pull at noon, a sawdust pile treasure hunt at 3:30 p.m. and the John Dudley Magic Show at 7 p.m. In “The Barnyard,” kids will find plenty to do such as play on a wooden tractor and hay wagon, and have their picture taken amongst the farm animal cutouts. Tractor games will be held for those children who have access to riding lawn tractors. Returning for its third year will be the "Kids Night Time Lawn Tractor Cruise" at 8 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
For shoppers, there is a large outdoor flea market with over 220 vendors selling antique iron, crafts, antiques, household and miscellaneous items. The Wooden Nickel gift shop, which is fashioned after an old general store, will be open as well.
One of the popular activities for young and old is the “South Haven Tractor Cruise.” Scheduled for 4 p.m. Thursday, participants drive tractors of all makes and models into South Haven, cruise along the South Beach, and then stop downtown for an evening of dining and shopping.
The Consignment Auction will kick off Sunday's events. Starting at 9 a.m., the auction is a fundraiser for the museum which uses the proceeds to fund preservation and education projects.

Join us for an intimate concert in our Performance Studio with Peter Mulvey!
THE GOOD STUFF, Peter Mulvey’s fifteenth record, is a collection of standards which promptly rejects the accepted definition of “Standard” in favor of a more vivid, open
approach. The music of Tom Waits is right there with Duke Ellington; Willie Nelson next to Thelonious Monk; Jolie Holland juxtaposed with Bill Frisell. Mulvey (along with his band, the Crumbling Beauties) address each tune with a true artist’s touch.
His mirthful, gravelly baritone is front and center from moment one, and every track is a master class in restraint, phrasing, and commitment.

Bernard has been successful at convincing each woman that she is the only one.
Bernard's old school friend Robert arrives unexpectedly, and Bernard proudly explains to his wide-eyed visitor how he makes his busy romantic schedule run smoothly. He also has a fallback plan for keeping his fiancées separate, involving his country house.
Unfortunately for Bernard, a new, faster Boeing jet has been introduced, changing the timetable. Weather delays occur, and complications arise when the women's behavior does not match Bernard's careful planning. It’s “Frasier” meets “Pan Am” with a twist!

He tracks their airlines' timetables while his long-suffering housekeeper, Bertha, reluctantly resets the menus and bedroom decor depending on their arrivals and departures.

Saugatuck Red Barn Theatre Presents "Breaking Up Is Hard To Do"

Start Time: 7:30 pm
Location: Red Barn Theatre
Category: Saugatuck & Douglas Events
Get More Details:
Set at a Catskills resort in 1960, this is the sweetly comic story of Lois and Marge, two friends from Brooklyn in search of good times and romance over one wild Labor Day weekend. The score showcases 18 Neil Sedaka classics, including "Where the Boys Are", "Sweet Sixteen", "Calendar Girl", "Love Will Keep Us Together", and of course, the chart-topping title song.
Marge and her stagestruck best friend Lois arrive at Esther's Paradise Resort in the Catskills on Labor Day Weekend in 1960, on a vacation that was intended to be Marge's honeymoon — until the groom left her at the altar. Lois attempts to console Marge by setting her up with the resort's handsome, self-obsessed singer Del Delmonaco. But her plans backfire when Del mistakenly assumes that Marge's father can further his ambitions to become the next teen heartthrob on American Bandstand. Gazing forlornly at Marge from the wings is geekish cabana boy and aspiring songwriter Gabe.
When he isn't entertaining the guests with classic, but still comical Borscht Belt shtick, house comic Harvey secretly carries a torch for widowed resort owner Esther, who is more preoccupied trying to keep her resort open.
Tickets are $20 for adults and $15 for Seniors and Students and Members of the Lakeshore Arts Alliance. Make reservations by calling (269) 857-5300 or by emailing lakeshorearts@comcast.net. Tickets may also be purchased at The Red Barn, 3657 63rd St. at Blue Star Highway, a quarter-mile east of Exit 41 off US I-196.

Location: Red Barn Theatre
Category: Saugatuck & Douglas Events
Get More Details:
The Red Barn Theater’s classic film series continues July 31 with “The Sound of Music," the hugely popular 1965 musical epic that won five Oscars and guaranteed Julie Andrews her place as the genre's top ingenue. Based on the Broadway play by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II the won Best Picture honors and topped "Gone with the Wind" as the most lucrative picture in history.
Andrews is Maria a role played on Broadway by Mary Martin. Christopher Plummer is Captain Von Trapp, widower with seven children who weds Maria, and Eleanor Parker is the Baroness, who has her own eyes on the Captain.
The picture is nearly three hours long, but the magnificent scenery and show-stopping hits make viewing a pleasure. "Do-Re-Mi," "Climb Every Mountain," "Sixteen Going on Seventeen," and even "The Lonely Goatherd" make this a perfect event for families.
At least half of the show's songs became hits, some several times as jazz musicians such as John Coltrane ("My Favorite Things") recorded individual tunes as well as entire albums (Stan Getz)
Doors open at 6 p.m. with beef franks and brats (BEFORE THE SHOW AND AT INTERMISSION) and old-time TV shows available until 7 p.m. Join host John Hardy in

Saugatuck Red Barn Theatre Movie Night-"Evil Under the Sun"
Date: Tuesday, July 24, 2012
Start Time: 7:00 pm
Location: Red Barn Theatre
Category: Saugatuck & Douglas Events
Get More Details:
The Red Barn Theater’s classic film series continues July 24 with “Evil Under the Sun ," a 1981 mystery featuring Peter Ustinov as Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot, with James Mason, Diana Rigg and Roddy McDowall in major character roles. The book is based on Christie's 1941 novel.
An insurance company hires Poirot to check the authenticity of a gigantic engagement ring that had been returned to a millionaire by his unscrupulous former fiancee. Confirming the suspicion that the diamond is a fake, Poirot agrees to travel to an island resort where the ex-fiancee is vacationing and to confront her there.
Maggie Smith is featured as the owner of the island resort hotel, given to her by a former king of "Tyrania" for services rendered. Mason is a New York theatrical producer, and McDowall steals his scenes by impersonating Noel Coward as a theater critic. The whole joint is crawling with former chorus girls (the redoubtable Ms. Rigg foremost among them) and all manner of theater folk drawn to the island as former colleagues of Ms. Smith.
The complicated story is sure to please Agatha Christie fans as well as those of Peter Ustinov who wears very well as the amazing Belgian detective.
Doors open at 6:30 p.m. with old-time TV shows available until 7 p.m. Join host John Hardy

Date: Tuesday, July 17, 2012
Start Time: 7:00 pm
Location: Red Barn Theatre
Category: Saugatuck & Douglas Events
Get More Details:
The Red Barn Theater’s classic film series continues July 17 with “And Then There Were None ," a 1945 comedy thriller featuring veteran character actors Barry Fitzgerald, Walter Huston, C. Aubrey Smith, and Dame Judith Anderson.
The script is based on a play by Agatha Christie (which was based loosely on her book, which was considerably grimmer). The film could be seen as a precursor to modern slasher films with very little visible gore.
Ten strangers, relatively evil folks, are summoned to an island off the coast of Devon by a Mr. Owen, whom none of them knows. Soon, the ten begin to see their fellows voted off the island by way of murder. Each time someone dies, the nonsense poem "Ten Little Indians" is recited, and each death corresponds to one in the poem, and in the proper order. This, of course, is the title of Christie's original book.
Doors open at 6:30 p.m. with old-time TV shows available until 7 p.m. Join host John Hardy in
front of The Big Screen at The Red Barn, 3657 63rd St. at Blue Star Hwy., Saugatuck, about

With the back drop of Silver Beach, you'll not only enjoy great music, but terrific scenery along with sailboats meandering up and down the river flowing right beside the stage.
Plenty of food and drink (including adult beverages) are available at the show. It's a perfect night for those that both want something upbeat and energetic as well as groovy and romantic. We hope to see you there!

Smooth Jazz At Sunset provides "A" list performers the Saturday evening of the Krasl Art Fair weekend. These Smooth Jazz artists don't play your average jazz, but a mix of POP, Jazz, Latin and Urban grooves that both create a relaxing mood and moments where you want to get out of your seat and dance.
With the back drop of Silver Beach, you'll not only enjoy great music, but terrific scenery along with sailboats meandering up and down the river flowing right beside the stage.
Plenty of food and drink (including adult beverages) are available at the show. It's a perfect night for those that both want something upbeat and energetic as well as groovy and romantic. We hope to see you there!
2012 Artist: Nelson Rangell, Saxophonist & Flutist

Saugatuck Red Barn Theatre Movie Night- Band Of Angels
Date: Tuesday, June 26, 2012
Start Time: 7:00 pm
Location: Red Barn Theatre
Category: Saugatuck & Douglas Events
Get More Details:
The Red Barn Theater’s film series continues June 26 with “Band of Angels,” the 1957 drama set just before the Civil War and starring Clark Gable,Yvonne DeCarlo, and Sidney Poitier. Based on a novel by Robert Penn Warren, the plot revolves around a woman’s discovery that she is descended from slaves, not plantation aristocrats.
Amantha Starr (De Carlo) is the privileged daughter of a Kentucky plantation owner. However, after he dies, a shocking secret is revealed: unbeknownst to Amantha, her mother had been one of her father's black slaves. Legally now property, she is taken by a slave trader to New Orleans to be sold.
Amantha is put up for auction. When she is callously inspected by a coarse potential buyer, she is rescued from further humiliation by Hamish Bond (Gable), who outbids the cad, paying an exorbitant price for her. Expecting the worst, Amantha is surprised to be treated as a lady, not a slave, by her new owner. At his city mansion, she meets his key slaves, his housekeeper (and former lover) Michele (Carolle Drake) and his conflicted right-hand-man Rau-Ru (Poitier). Rau-Ru is grateful for the kindness, education and trust Hamish has bestowed on him, but hates him anyway. Over time, Amantha loves Bond, but finds out that he had been a slave trader.
Film begins at 7 p.m. when you can join host John Hardy in front of The Big Screen at The Red Barn, 3657 63rd St. at Blue Star Hwy., Saugatuck, about a quarter mile east of Exit 41 off of I-196.

Join in the fun at our annual Wine Festival when we bring you wine tasting in the vineyards, great live music, specialty foods and a super afternoon.
There will be tasting locations outside in the vineyards (weather permitting), providing you with an opportunity to visit the most picturesque spots on the farm while you taste a selection of our wines in the vineyard where they originated. The People Hauler (Wagon) will be continuously transporting participants from the winery to the vineyard tasting sites, or you can enjoy a leisurely 10 minute stroll from the winery to the vineyard.
With your entry you'll receive a souvenir Fenn Valley logo wineglass for tasting specially selected wines, tasting tickets or a ticket for a glass of wine of your choice. Tables will be available should you wish to linger over a glass of wine and visit with family and friends. Or bring your own lawn chairs or blanket.
Live music will once again be performed by The Trace, with an opening act by GD Rock-It (Rock, R&B, Funk, Reggae, and Oldies)
Besides all of the fun, this is your chance to replenish your wine supplies at substantial savings. All of the released wines tasted at this event will be specially priced at 25% OFF the regular price. This special pricing applies to STRAIGHT CASES ONLY (12 of a kind). Purchases of 4 or more cases (mix & match whole cases) will receive a 30% discount, so you may want to pool your orders with your family and friends. Although all cases must be straight cases, not all cases in an order need to be the same wine.
Finally, reservations speed the entry process but are not necessary and only costs $8.00 per person!

Start Time: 7:30 pm
Location: Foundry Hall
Category: South Haven Events
Get More Details:
Folk music with a flavor of the '30s-40s is injected with fresh, modern storytelling. Petal Shop, from Detroit, performs with an energy that is at once the subtle tension of an intimate folk concert and the wild, pentecostal drive of punk-driven bluegrass. Fiddle, banjo and guitar cling to each other as three vocals intersect and blend into a single, stratified voice. Dancing is common, both on and off stage as Petal Shop's members beg for “just one 'amen!'”
Tickets: $7 door / $5 advance & members

Winner of the 2004 Tony Award for Best Musical, AVENUE Q is the story of Princeton, a bright-eyed college grad who comes to New York City with big dreams and a tiny bank account.

There's Brian the out-of-work comedian and his therapist fiancée Christmas Eve; Nicky the good-hearted slacker and his roommate Rod -- a Republican investment banker who seems to have some sort of secret; an internet addict called Trekkie Monster; and a very cute kindergarten teaching assistant named Kate.

Together, Princeton and his newfound friends struggle to find jobs, dates, and their ever-elusive purpose in life.

Saugatuck Red Barn Theatre Musical: Carney Dreams
Date: Thursday, June 21-24,2012
Start Time: 7:30 pm
Location: Red Barn Theatre
Category: Saugatuck & Douglas Events
Get More Details:
Carney Dreams is a new musical with libretto written by Al Ver Schure, music composed by Bud Ferguson and lyrics by Al Ver Schure.
Zoot Moses fled the carney four years ago when money was stolen, an horrific fire occurred, and he was blamed. During the time he worked at the carnival, Claudia loved him and shared with him and everyone else that both legends and the alignment of the stars destined the two of them to be together. Her love remains an obsession. Amos is also fueled by the need to keep Claudia close to him, but even more by his hatred of the absent Zoot.
In the present, Zoot has found his way into employment at the dinerowned by Al. Here, Debbie, a waitress, has also become enamored of Zoot. After some time, Zoot, a reluctant conversationalist at best, unburdens himself of his past to Debbie, who determines to obtain closure on the old relationship with Claudia so she can start on a new one with Zoot.
Curtain for all shows is 7:30, except for the matinee on 6/24, which will begin at 2pm.
Admission is $15 for adults or $12 for Seniors, Students and members of The Lakeshore Arts Alliance. Please call (269) 857-5300 for more information and special group rates. The Red Barn is located at 3657 63rd St. at Blue Star Highway, Saugatuck, about a quarter mile east of Exit 41 off of I-196.

Saugatuck Red Barn Theatre Movie Night "Picnic"
Date: Tuesday, June 19, 2012
Start Time: 7:00 pm
Location: Red Barn Theatre
Category: Saugatuck & Douglas Events
Get More Details:
The Red Barn Theater’s film series continues June 19 with “Picnic,” the 1955 romance based on a play by William Inge and featuring theme music that became a hit on its own. William Holden stars as Hal Carter, the drifter who disrupts the smug life in a small community, and Kim Novak is Madge Owens, the town beauty.
The plot covers a 24-hour period: September 5, 1955. Hal is a former college football star, adrift and unemployed after army service and a failed Hollywood acting career. On Labor Day he arrives by freight train in a Kansas town to visit a fraternity buddy, Alan Benson (Cliff Robertson), the son of a wealthy grain elevator owner. Hal meets Madge, who is dating his friend.
Madge’s mother (Betty Field) hopes that she will marry Alan, whose father thinks Madge is beneath his son. Hal gets along wonderfully with almost everyone, and Alan is very happy to see "same old Hal," whom he takes to the family's sprawling grain elevator operations. He promises Hal a steady job as a "wheat scooper" (though Hal is disappointed he is not made an executive) and invites Hal to the town's Labor Day picnic. Hal is wary about going to the picnic, but Alan nudges him into it, saying Hal's "date" for the picnic will be Madge's bookish younger sister Millie (Susan Strasberg), who is quickly drawn to Hal's cheerful outlook and charisma.
During the picnic, everyone is unmasked, and by the next morning the question is whether Hal and Madge will find each other.
Film begins at 7 pm. when you can join host John Hardy in front of The Big Screen at The Red Barn, 3657 63rd St. at Blue Star Hwy., Saugatuck, about a quarter mile east of Exit 41 off of I-196. Suggested donation is $5. Free popcorn from CNJ Popcorn Co. and $1 concessions. Call (269) 857-5300 for more information or email lakeshorearts@comcast.net
