Hank Cramer, Musician - Hank Cramer is a traveling folksinger who lives in Washington State. He is best known for his booming bass voice, accompanied by vintage flat-top guitar and a wry sense of humor. His repertoire is a mix of original, traditional, and contemporary folk songs. Most of his songs tell the stories of cowboys, sailors, soldiers, miners, adventurers and just plain drifters. That fits with Hank's life story: he has been an underground miner, a professional soldier, shanty-man on a square-rigged sailing ship, wrangler for a high-country outfitter, and a world traveler. Those experiences make Hank's music ring with a special authenticity. In addition to concert engagements, Hank is an avid historian and presents educational programs which weave together music, history, and cultural traditions."

Rust in Peace: Recent watercolors by Artist Mario PIres - Mario Pires: RUST IN PEACE series Brief Artist Statement: July 2010 I have recently revisited a prior artistic focus on the study of subjects that go unnoticed. There are similar occurrences, be they significant or minor, that occur when possessions, or in more general terms, “stuff” get neglected in this world. The realization of a connection between man and the objects that man creates has always fascinated me as a consumer and as an artist. In the works from the Rust in Peace series, my imagery addresses how the effects of time, weather, and the idea of maintenance have affected everyday objects. My watercolors look to enhance the beauty of something as commonplace as rust with the everyday object, like an automobile. Further, subject matter in the paintings was developed from observational sketches, memory, and reference photographs. Mario Pires will be holding a solo show of his recent works at the historical Stanley-Whitman House in Farmington, Ct. There will be an opening reception for the artist onSeptember 11th, 2010 from 1-3 pm. Please visit stanlrywhitman.org for more info. The reception is open to the public. 37 high street. 860-677-9222. mariopires@yahoo.com.www.stanleywhitman.org.free.

2010 Transportation Alternatives’ New York City Century Bike Tour - Transportation Alternatives’ New York City Century Bike Tour is our largest fundraiser of the year. This tour is unique in that it takes place entirely within New York City and it offers five route options (15-, 35-, 55-, 75- and 100-miles) for cyclists of all ages and ability levels. Start and finish the ride in beautiful Central Park, Manhattan or Prospect Park, Brooklyn, and stay afterward for a festival in celebration of what we’ve all accomplished that day. This ride encourages thousands of cyclists to understand that riding in New York City is possible and can be safe. By riding in the NYC Century Bike Tour you're helping make the streets safer for cycling all year-round. For more information and registration, go to www.nyccentury.org or call 212-629-8080.

NYC Century Bike Tour - The New York City Century Bike Tour is a ride to be proud of. You'll be part of a select group of cyclists who are ready for the adventure of riding in New York City. Proceeds from the tour benefit the bicycling advocacy of Transportation Alternatives. By riding in the New York City Century Bike Tour you're helping make the streets safer for cycling all year-round. During the first years of the tour New York had few greenways and bike lanes. Over the course of the last twenty years, the NYC greenway system has expanded, and each year the ride showcases this growing bike network, encouraging riders to use the NYC Century as a starting point for year-round cycling. The first NYC Century in 1990 attracted about 200 dedicated NYC cyclists, most of whom were daily bicycle commuters, fighting hard for better conditions for cycling in NYC. Today the ride draws over 6,000 cyclists. Of course, most still come from NYC but many come from Texas, California, Maryland and as far away as Germany, the UK and Mexico. Many return year after year. NYC Century Bike Tour is unlike other rides. The NYC Century works as a means to show riders how they can connect to different neighborhoods and boroughs of the city safely. To illustrate cyclists' rights to the streets, there are no street closings; cyclists ride with traffic along New York City Streets and must obey all traffic laws. Rain or Shine Note: all rides end in Central Park or Prospect Park. The 15 mile riders must start in Central Park. Rest stops will provide food, water, first aid and mechanics. There is one flight of stairs along the route on the RFK (aka Triborough) Bridge. Choose your distance, Ride your Pace 15 mile: Park to Park: Escorted by T.A. Marshals, this ride is meant for first-time riders and families. Riders travel around historic Washington Park, roll through SoHo, then proceed over to the Brooklyn Bridge. The tour officially finishes in Prospect Park where riders can collect their t-shirts and water bottles or choose to use the Return Ride to Central Park. Leave 8 am. Finish 11 am-2 pm. Central Park Start option only. 35 mile: East River Loop: This ride is for those looking for more than a Sunday stroll. Riders are taken through downtown Brooklyn, around Prospect Park and continue through hip and trendy Williamsburg and up to Astoria Park in Queens. Riders leave Central Park at 7:30 am or Prospect Park at 8 am. The approximate finish time is between 11 am-3 pm. 55 mile: The Waterfront: This route is more miles but since NYC is relatively flat terrain it makes for a manageable ride for someone who is looking to challenge him or herself. This route takes riders along the Brooklyn greenway with views of the Verrazano Bridge and Coney Island and connecting with 35-mile finish. Riders leave Central Park at 7 am or Prospect Park at 7:30 am. Riders finish approximately between 11 am-4 pm. 75 mile: The Velodrome: This is not for amateurs. Riders travel out to Far Rockaway and beautiful Fort Tilden after Marine Park. The journey takes riders out to serene Forest Park and up to Kissena Park for a spin at the Velodrome. Riders leave Central Park at 6:30 am or Prospect Park at 7 am. Riders finish approximately between 12-4 pm. 100 mile: Experienced Riders Only. Cyclists head north to Astoria Park along the 75-mile route and then progress into the Bronx. This part of the ride is the most challenging because we saved the hills for the end. Riders enter northern Manhattan and travel through historic Harlem. Riders leave Central Park at 6 am or Prospect Park at 6:30 am. Riders finish approximately between 12-6 pm.

Judy Collins - Judy Collins has thrilled audiences worldwide with her unique blend of interpretative folksongs and contemporary themes. Her impressive career has spanned more than 40 years. At 13, Judy Collins made her public debut performing Mozart's "Concerto for Two Pianos" but it was the music of such artists as Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger, as well as the traditional songs of the folk revival, that sparked Judy Collins' love of lyrics. She soon moved away from the classical piano and began her lifelong love with the guitar. In 1961, Judy Collins released her first album, A Maid of Constant Sorrow, at the age of 22 and began a thirty-five year association with Jac Holzman and Elektra Records. 263 Golden Hill St. Bridgeport, CT 06604. 203-576-1636. melissam@downtowncabaret.org.www.downtowncabaret.org.$76 and $66.

Belleville High Banks Races - (JUNE THRU SEPT.) - Boasts the fastest 1/2 mile dirt track in the world. USAC sanctions the annual Belleville Midget Nationals in August. Driver Quotes: "Every one tells you all these stories that scare you ... that they got these numbers on the turns because you don't know where you are. And it's true. You don't know where you are. Comin' into (turn) three you need to look at what's going on coming out of four or else you'll be in trouble." - Ricky Gray "She's like the Daytona for Midgets. She's pretty awesome. They said it has a little bit of a straightaway down the front but I haven't found it yet. You gotta to know who you are racing with because one little bobble can cost you some time of a car or anything else." - Brad Noffsinger "It's not like anything I had been to before. It's kind of an egg-shaped 'D' the way I look at it. I'd heard how high-banked and fast it was and they weren't lying. It's kind of a harder track to pass on because it is so fast. I think even the slower guys are pretty quick here. You've gotta really be sharp to do any passing. Everybody just said they run it up against the fence so I figured we could handle that part of it." - Jack Hewitt "There's probably only a hundred feet of straight straightaway down the front but the backstraight is pretty much just a big sweeping curve. If you don't have respect for this race track, it's gonna bite you." - Greg Vernetti "I mean everybody who was anybody was at Belleville, and they had their best cars ready to go there. It was a great race for me to win. I was on a tear there, running wide open and jumping the cushion and never lifting. I never stopped racing like that until the checkered flag flew." - Jeff Gordon 2006 Schedule of Events Sun Jun 18 ...

Thayer Country Music Show - The accommodations have moved from various towns and locations, to a 53-foot flatbed trailer in Thayer to the present spot at the park bandstand, but the Thayer Country Music Show at times in its history known as the "Amateur Hour" and "Amateur Night," is still going strong in its 66th year. Performances are each Saturday from Memorial Day to Labor Day, and much like it has been since 1935, starting time is 7 pm with the last number played "whenever' - perhaps as late as the wee hours of Sunday morning. Though is has moved from the trailer that was parked in downtown Thayer, many things remain the same, while a couple of new attractions have been added. School-aged children still run around playing games during the show. Attendees are still encouraged to bring a lawn chair and "sit a spell and clap their hand," if the spirit moves them. Some cushioned mini-couches, with backs, are also available. Many of the locals chat during the show, as this is probably the only time many of them see each other during the week - another tradition. Two of the founders of the show were the late Harvey Orcutt of the Odense community and 83-year-old Nathan Welch of Chanute who still picks up his guitar and sits in occasionally. Jo Anna Welch, daughter, a Chanute librarian, remembers that back in the "old days" of the flatbed trailer, "if you got up and sang a 'special,' you got a free drink at the downtown cafe that was open back then. The entertainers come from near and far, including Coffeyville, Independence, Fredonia, Erie, Humboldt, and Altoona, as well as Chanute. The evening is perennially peaceful, and is one of the few places left where children can run loose and their parents not have to be worried about them. So, why not dust off the old guitar or fiddle, or vocal chords, and join in? New performers are always welcome at the Thayer Country Music Show. Saturdays - 7 P.M. - Memorial Day to Labor Day

Terri Gibbs of Lone Star Lake Bison Ranch added, "For us, the Lawrence Farmers' Market is all about community and the value of home-grown products. The Lawrence Farmers' Market has such a tremendous reputation for the integrity of its products, and that translates into both trust and reassurance in knowing where your food comes from." With the move of the Saturday Market to its larger location, the Downtown Lawrence Farmers' Market is able to introduce several new features including the Market Square. This area is dedicated to the "three Es-eating, entertaining and educating."

New Exhibit: Frog Bog - May 23 through the end of 2008. This summer, the Newport Aquarium is opening a new exhibit that will change the way you think about frogs. “Frog Bog,” opening Memorial Day Weekend, will feature these unique and wonderful animals with fun and new interactive components for kids to enjoy. Included in the Aquarium’s general admission price, this exhibit, with many different kinds of frogs, has many hands-on, visual and sound-rich experiences that highlight different senses and replicate the frog habitat. Kids can learn all about frogs with activities including three-foot-tall Musical Frog replicas that will "sing" when children play with them. The Aquarium will provide an updated Frogger-type video game with an interactive pad. Another interactive demonstrates amphibian habitat destruction. There will also be an area that allows kids to explore exhibits while climbing through tunnels, walking through tubes and sliding down a slide. From musical frogs to climbing and sliding... kids will be immersed in the world of frogs. Why frogs? There is a global amphibian crisis and over 500 species of frogs are critically endangered and threatened with extinction due to environmental changes and pollution. Frogs absorb toxins through their skin, so when waterways become polluted, the frogs are the first to die. Visit the website for more information. 1 Aquarium Way. 859-261-7444. info@newportaquarium.com.www.newportaquarium.com.$18.95 for adults; $11.95 for children (2-12).

Longest Walk - Hello my name is Julien Jacobs. I am Yupik and Inupiaq, that is I am mixed with two tribes in Alaska summed up As Inuit or aka Eskimo. I am part of an Advanced Party for the LongestWalk2.org an organization of Indigenous Peoples and Global Participants that have been walking from Alcatraz and have made it your way for a visit and Straight on into Washington D.C. There are 80 of us and have been walking from February 11th until July 11th when we make our debut onto the steps of Congress as well as Presidential Candidates where they will hear our Journey across America Step by Step. We wanted to particularily stop into your area for a temporary visit and rest as well as prepare for the next day. We wanted to let you know about our journey and would like to share our stories as well as listen to your stories that you would like to share on the steps of the Federal Government. Our issues that we are particularily focusing on are; Health, Environment, Sovereignity, Justice and Peace. Our main goal is to hear your concerns that we can incorporate into our Manifest so we would not like to miss out on your coummunity and have a chance to learn from each other. One thing that we do ask is for is that we can learn more specifically for logistical purpose is of course all the smaller things that matter such as Laundry Facilities, Internet Hotspots or Finding a way to Get Fresh Fruits and Vegtables, possibly a hot shower. We have been having difficulty in just the trivial requirements but anticipate and hope for some usage throughout your city. We have been underway for some time now and would like to catch up on those small things. We typically walk 17-24 miles a day and become very tired but enjoy the spirit of meeting with community members that share the same volunteerism and hope and dreams that make this country great. We are trying to make a better world for our children and for new days to come. I just wanted to share this information with you all and hope to see that you are as excited as we are to come to your area and Greet each other with the respect and dignity that can consume a lifetime full of change as we share what we learn on the footsteps of the Federal Government. I hope to hear from you and hope that we can remain in contact especially for events throughout the city and community that we would like to share as well as learn. Quyana Caknek! . . . Thank you very much Julien Jacobs. lw2southernroute@gmail.com.
