Its hard to believe summer is over and autumn is here.

Leaves are starting to change, weather is getting crisp

and Halloween is just around the corner. That means that

local businesses like, Geers Farm Pumpkin Patch near

McBain, Pahls Pumpkin Patch near Buckley, Flower

Bucket Farm near Paris, and Norman Farms in Tustin

are gearing up for some fall fun.

What better time to head out and enjoy the season as

well as pick up a pumpkin and other fall decorations?

You can get lost in a corn maze or sample some delectable

doughnuts and apple cider. For those who think thatsounds like a perfect weekend afternoon, youre in luck,

because the Cadillac area has four pumpkin patches from

which to choose.

Geers Farm Pumpkin PatchOnce again, Missaukee County residents and visitors

will be able to enjoy picking out the perfect pumpkin at

Geers Farm near McBain.

Every weekend in October from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., the

pumpkin patch at the farm will be open.

People can pick a pumpkin, get some cider and home-

made doughnuts and purchase straw bales and corn

stalks for decorations. There are farm animals for chil-

dren to pet, a hay stack for kids to climb and a corn maz

to explore.For more information about the pumpkin patch, call

Pahls Pumpkin PatchPahls Pumpkin Patch in Buckley also will again be

open for business offering all of your fall favorites.

The patch, located across from the Buckley Old Engine

Show grounds, has been open for more than 10 years and

will be open seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.

beginning Sept. 28. The patch will be open through Hal-

loween.There are farm animals for children to see, corn mazes

sion to the corn mazes is free.

For more information, call (231) 269-4400 or (231) 620-

1242, or log on to www.pahlspumpkinpatch.com. Pahls

Pumpkin Patch is located at 11168 N. M-37 in Buckley.

Flower Bucket FarmBrooke Whipple and her husband, David, moved from

Alaska two years ago this fall and opened the farm. While

they enjoyed the summer growing season and the flowers

they sold, they know it is time to think about autumn.

They plan to have a pumpkin patch this year, but the

late start to the growing season has left things in doubt.

In addition to pumpkins, Whipple said the supply of

gourds and perhaps some dried corn stalks, Indian Corn

and an assortment of fall and Halloween decorations ar

also in limbo. Still, she is remaining hopeful.

The farm is open seven days a week, from dusk until

dawn, and the pumpkin patch is self-serve through Octo

ber.The farm is located between Paris and Reed City, thre

miles west of Northland Drive (Old 131) at 23834 Meceol

Road. For more information, log onto www.flowerbucke

farm.com.

Norman FarmsIn early September Norman Farms in Tustin was fin-

ishing up the summer growing season with sweet corn

and tomatoes, but now pumpkins are the biggest pro-

duced harvested.

In addition to the pumpkins, Norman Farms also has

Indian Corn, gourds and dried corn stalks. The farm is

open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. seven days a week. The farm i

located four miles west of U.S. 131 exit 168 at 22735 20 Mi

Road. More information can be found online at www.no

manfarms.webs.com or by calling (231) 429-6191

You know where the pumpkin patch-

es are but how do you know which

pumpkin will make the best jack-o-

lantern?

Dont worry, there are things you canlook for that will help you pick the

perfect pumpkin depending on what

type of carving you want to do. From

simple faces, stencil patterns to elabo-

rate design there is a pumpkin that

is perfect for you and your family, ac-

cording to tips from the Farmers Al-

manac.

The rst step to nding the right

pumpkin is deciding on the design you

want to carve. Depending on the size

and shape of your design, you may

need a tall narrow pumpkin or a shortround one.

Smaller pumpkins are suitable

for carving simple traditional jack

olantern faces.

Medium sized pumpkins are good se-

lections for most stencil patterns.

For more intricate and elaborate de

signs, you may want to choose a larg

pumpkin so it will be easier to carve

A pumpkin with a smooth surface w

give you the best working canvas. The pumpkin should be at on the

bottom so it will not roll.

Avoid pumpkins with scratches, nick

cuts, and dents unless they will en-

hance your design.

Pass up pumpkins with bruises since

these will decay faster.

Lighter colored pumpkins are norm

ly softer, making carving easier.

Look for a ripe pumpkin with a stur

stem. Do not carry the pumpkin by

its stem to avoid breaking it. If the

stem does break off, it can be patchback using toothpicks. If your perfec

pumpkin is missing its stem, instead

carving out a lid on top, simply carve

out the bottom. Place a candle on th

carved out section, and then set the

pumpkin over it.

the Heritage Nature Trail, Cadillac Pathway, Mackenzie

Trail, White Pine Trail, the North Country Trail and Big

The Heritage Nature Trail

Ed Shaw, park interpreter for the Department of Natu-

ral Resources, said the bridges and boardwalks of the

Heritage Nature Trail are a popular location for hikers

during the fall months. The 2.5 mile Heritage Nature

Trail starts at the Carl T. Johnson Hunting and Fishing

Center. The wetlands trail also gives tourists an up-close

look at area wildlife.

The Heritage Nature Trail has several different types

of habitat. You are going to see some maple trees, a few

beech trees and some oak trees, Shaw said. There is

also a viewing platform and high rises that make for ex-

cellent fall photos.

Cadillac Pathway

Cadillac Pathway is an 11.3 miles groomed hike, bike

and ski trail with six loops. The trail is located on Boon

Road, just off U.S. 131. Cadillac Pathway has two trail-

heads, one off Boon Road east of Cadillac near the Clam

River and the other by the Wexford-Missaukee ISD Ca-

reer Technical Center.

North Country Trail and Big MThe North Country Trail and the Big M are two trails

where outdoor enthusiasts can also get a peep of fall

colors in the area. Maps for the trail are Huron-Manistee

National Forest website. The North Country Trail and

Big M are located between Cadillac and Manistee within

the National Forest System. The Big M trail, located on

M-55 between Cadillac and Wellston, offers about 40 miles

of hiking in the fall.

Joy VanDrie, Executive Director of the Cadillac Area

Visitors Bureau, said Northern Michigans nearby na-

tional forests allow fall color tour hikers to see a plethora

of fall foliage.Our national forests have all the reds, golds and or-

anges tourists love to see. You will see a full spectrum of

fall colors in Northern Michigan, VanDrie said. There

are some really nice rolling hills in the area and you will

see some really nice colors this time of year.

EVART This fall, kids and kids-at-heart in the Evart

area can checkout several autumn activities centered

around All Hallows Eve.

For those that love ghosts and goblins (or just a chance

to dress up and collect some candy) there are two eve-nings of fall fun.

Evart kicks off with an early chance to dress up, walk

picturesque Riverside Park East and see the way the

town turns into a happy haunt.

The event takes place Monday, Oct. 27 from 7 to 9 p.m.

The admission fee for adults is $5 and for children 12

years old and under, admission is $3. All proceeds go to

the Evart Parks and Recreation and the citys Fourth of

July Celebration.

Last year was the first time the city held the haunted

park, and the success in numbers of attendees, reviews

from families and by raising nearly $1,000 for the town to

hold more family events, led to this years encore event.

This ghostly time is fun for the whole family.

It turned out to be a fantastic event and everyone

seemed to really have a great time, said organizer Eric

Schmidt, who points out the event is meant to delight and

thrill, not scare and chill.

We leave out the demonic and dark. The actors the

walkers will see arent there to make kids cry, it is mean

to be fun for everyone, said Schmidt.

The Halloween celebration continues on Halloween

night, where Evarts Monster Main Street Mash opensfor trick or treating. The citys Halloween event will tak

place Friday, Oct. 31 from 5 to 7 p.m. along Evarts Main

Street.

The block will be closed so families and children can

trick-or-treat safely. Businesses will open their doors to

the youngsters, handing out candy and other goodies.

Vendors will set up booths on the sidewalk, making fo

plenty of trick or treating in a short amount of time.

Schmidt said both businesses and families look forwa

to this event, which will set the scene with fun music an

plenty of other activities.

It allows a safe, fun place for families to bring their

children and collect lots of candy in a short amount of

time, said Schmidt.

There will be music, games and prizes, so break out

those costumes and head downtown to the annual Mon-

ster Main Street Mash and Mixer. For more information

CADILLAC Rosy-cheeked youngsters and their par-

ents braved the elements and cold temperatures last year

to witness the lighting of the Cadillac City Park tree and

get their picture taken with Santa Claus.

This year, the annual Christmas in the Park event willallow those families the same opportunity. The event

moved last year from Lake Street to the Rotary Perform-

ing Arts Pavilion in Cadillac City Park and will be held

there again this year. Rev. Dave McMahon said the event

will pretty much be like it was in 2013.

As in past years, carols will be sung, vendors will be

selling hot chocolate and, of course, Santa Claus will

make an appearance. In previous years Santa has ar-

rived aboard a boat, last year he arrived via a car and w

again this year. The hope is it will make it easier for mo

people to see his arrival.

For years, the city has kicked off the holiday season

with the event in the park, but a few years ago, a newtheme was incorporated Storybook Christmas. The

event has taken classic holiday tales such as The Polar

Express and used them as a theme.

For the past two years, free

books were given to each

child who came to see Santa.

In 2012, the book entitled,

Oh, What A Christmas was

used. Last year Tustin author

Doreen Bellevilles book,

Too Fat To Fly was given

away to the children. McMa-

hon said this year each child

who sees Santa will get a sack

filled with candy as well as

a DVD that depicts the lifeof Jesus. Only one video per

household so if you have mul-

tiple children only one video

will be given.

Its the Friday night after

Thanksgiving and people

are home. After sitting home

watching football and eating,

come out and check it out,

McMahon said.

With weather always a toss

up that time of year, McMa-

hon said the event is a gorain, shine or snow, but added

the pace should be a little

quicker in case it is cold.

The event is scheduled to

start at 5:30 p.m. on Nov. 28.

Even ifweather is

frightful,

thedelightfulChristmas inthe Park will

still go on

Wexford Habitat for Humanity will again sponsor two

of the areas most anticipated holiday fundraising events.

This year they take place in November.

Proceeds from the annual Festival of Dreams and

Breakfast with Santa support the Habitat mission to

help low-income, working families realize the American

Dream of home ownership.

Habitat Festival of DreamsFormerly known as the Festival of Trees, the popular

Habitat fundraising gala is now called the Festival of

Dreams to better represent the Habitat mission.

We pulled our group together to define what this festival

is all about, explained Cindy Hamner, event chairman.

Our purpose is to build homes and help people realize the

American Dream. Thats why we renamed the event.

The formal event will include dinner, dancing and din-

ing at Fox Hill Event Center. Cocktails will be served at 6

p.m. with dining at 6:45 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 8. There wilbe live and silent auctions with something for everyone,

including private meals catered by a chef, wine, and some

restored items donated by creative members of the com-

munity. Beautiful gift baskets will also be on display and

available.

Breakfast with SantaSanta arrives at 9 a.m. on Saturday morning, Nov. 22.

He will park his sleigh at the Cadillac Grill and spend th

morning greeting children, listening to their Christmas

wishes and sharing gifts with them. Santa also loves all

the fun activities. As a craft project, children will build

their own gingerbread houses to take home. There are

door prizes and a 50/50 raffle. This year Ryan and Nicole

Schultz, the owners of Toy Town, will be the emcees.

Tickets are $10 per person and children under 2 are free

TUSTIN Get ready to make your list and check it

twice because Santa and his elves are coming to town a

little early this year.

The 33rd annual Kettunen Center Breakfast with Santa

is set to bring some holiday cheer to families on Saturday,

Dec. 13 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Mr. and Mrs. Claus will be in

Tustin listening to holiday wishes.

The holiday event features live music from Mulligan

Stew, face painting and a craft room filled with more thana half-dozen activities, including ornament making and a

holiday letter writing station.

Nearly 100 volunteers from local schools and area busi-

nesses work to bring the holiday event to the center each

year.

Laura Jacobson, program education coordinator, said

the breakfast has become a tradition for families who

have visited Mr. and Mrs. Claus each year since the even

began.

A lot of people that visit with their children also re-

member seeing Mr. and Mrs. Claus here when they were

children, Jacobson said. Its very rewarding to see the

same faces each year.

The event costs $3 for adults and $1 per child, and res-

ervations are required. About 1,200 guests come to the

center to enjoy the holiday celebration each year.

Jacobson said the addition of new activities through-

out the years have made the breakfast a special momentfor local families.

Some kids are excited about seeing Santa this year a

others really like taking holiday ornaments home from

our craft room. Theres really something for everybody.

Reservations can be made by calling the Kettunen Cen

ter at (231) 829-3421. Reservations begin Dec. 1.

Make sure your list is set,

REED CITY With the turkey and trimmings still

cooling in the fridge following Thanksgiving, Reed City

wastes no time turning the city in to a winter wonder-

land.

The holiday season arrives complete with the welcom-

ing of Santa and Mrs. Claus, their elves and even real

reindeer, direct from the North Pole.

For everyone that enjoys the Thanksgiving weekend

Evergreen Festival, there is a different answer about

what the highlight of the action-packed weekend is.

The thing is, people love the things they know they get

to see and do every year, like the huge Christmas craft

show, or the parade and cookie decorating with the elves,

or visiting with Santa, said Reed City Chamber of Com-

merce Executive Director Suzie Williams. For others, it

is how we do try to mix it up with new ideas every year.

Folks can plan on the highly anticipated craft show

to take place Friday, Nov. 28 and Saturday, Nov. 29. with

more than 100 different booths expected. The craft show

takes place inside the halls of Reed City High School

from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Nov. 28 and 29.

On Saturday, Reed City ushers in the holiday season

with a parade, meet and greet with the Claus family, a

chance to meet a real reindeer, or hop inside the citys

gingerbread house to decorate cookies with the elves.

Meanwhile, as the little ones enjoy the Santa time,

the thrill lovers can head to the other side of town for

Santas Sleigh Race.

The parade will take place downtown at 1 p.m. fea-

turing floats, music and the arrival of Santa and Mrs.

Claus.

Right after the parade, Santa will set up shop at the

Reed City Depot until 3 p.m. for visits with children an

to watch over the cookie making.

Meanwhile, following the parade, Santas friends, the

Reed City Fire Association, will hold the inaugural Ev

ergreen Festival Sleigh Bed Race.For more information on the race or to register, visit

www.reedcityfire.org or call David Belden at (231) 349-

2161. For details on the Santa gathering, craft show,

parade and more, call the Reed City Chamber at (231)

MANTO

N

Outdoors enthusiast Dave Foley has one piece of advice

for those who have never snowshoed before just try it.

Its really good exercise, Foley said. And youre land-

ing on a soft surface, so its low impact. Theres really

nothing risky or dangerous about it.In addition to being good exercise, Foley said snow-

shoes are one of the best and only ways to access wooded

areas normally impeded by snow cover.

Foley said the activity is very easy to learn, since if

done right, there should be no difference between walk-

ing normally and with snowshoes on your feet.

For the beginner, Foley said it is extremely important

to make sure snowshoes fit snuggly and allow the heels to

lift off the ground when taking a step.

Youre not supposed to look like Frankenstein when

you walk (with snowshoes), Foley said.

Also, remember that snowshoes are built based on the

weight of the person using them, not necessarily the size

of their foot.

A quality set of snowshoes for a beginner can cost as

low as $60 or $70. Its important to remember, however,

that you get what you pay for, Foley said.

If youre a serious snowshoer and youre way out

strophic, Foley said.

Once on the trail, Foley said those without much expe

rience might want to try using ski poles along with the

snowshoes to improve balance.

CADILLAC NEWS

Winter is a great time to

head out on to any of the

Cadillac areas inland lakes

and do some ice fishing.

DNR Fisheries Biologist

Mark Tonello said the area

has two of the better north-

ern pike and crappie lakes

in northern Michigan in

lakes Cadillac and Mitch-

ell. Last winter was a tough

one for ice anglers, mostly

because of the intense cold

and abundant snow.

He expects this winter

will again be good for using

tip-ups and spearing for

pike. He added that walleyefishing should continue to

improve on Lakes Cadillac

and Mitchell, as it has for

the past several years.

Lake Missaukee is good for panfish,

bluegill and sunfish, in particular,

Tonello said. Although the first two

weeks and last two weeks of ice are

considered the best ice, Tonello said

on local lakes pike and crappie can be

caught throughout the season.

The free fishing weekend this win-

ter is scheduled for Feb. 14 and 15.During that weekend, anyone can

fish without a license, but still must

follow state fishing laws.

When it comes to ice fishing, the

DNR historically doesnt say when

ice is considered safe, but anglers

need to remember there is no fish is

worth risking your life for. The DNR

also suggests following a few safety

tips when heading out onto the ice.

They include:

Avoid crossing frozen bodies of

water in a single file.

Never venture onto the ice aloneor without telling your plans to a re-

sponsible adult.

Any time you are on the ice and

have not personally checked the

ice thickness consider yourself in

harms way. Check the

thickness of the ice with

ice spud before venturing

onto the ice.

Never drive a car or

truck on the ice.

Avoid standing or walk

ing in areas with a group

of people.

Always wear a life

jacket when on the frozen

surface of a lake or river.

Carry a pair of ice

picks. These are designed

for a self rescue and are

two handles with a nail

device in one end attache

to each other by a length

rope.

Look for large cracks o

depressions in the ice. Learn and practice res

cue techniques by using

ropes, boats, ladders, etc.

Ice does not form with

uniform thickness on any body of

water. Underwater springs or cur-

rents can wear thin spots on any bo

of water.

Clear ice is the strongest. Ice

formed by melted and refrozen

snow appears milky, is very porous

and very weak. Ice covered by snow

should always be presumed unsafe. Four inches of ice will generally

hold an average-sized person on foo

Snowmobiles and ORVs need at leas

eight inches of solid, consistent ice.

Ice fishingis a cool way to spend a winter day

CADILLAC Anglers will be able grab their rods,

tipups and bait their hooks for two days Michigan fish-ing for free.

Fishing licenses are required by Michigan for anyone

17 years of age or older. But on February 14 and 15 all

fishing license fees will be waived for anyone wanting to

have some fun fishing.

The 2015 free fishing weekend is bringing Northern

Michigan families back out on the lakes this winter.

Michigans free fishing weekend gives residents and

out-of-state tourists a chance to fish on both inland and

Great Lakes waters for all species of fish.

The two days have become an annual tradition for an-

glers and their families.

The Department of Natural Resources offers a free fish-ing weekend twice each year. The weekends are an an-

nual effort to encourage people to get outside and enjoy

fishing on both inland and Great Lakes waters.

Michigan has more than 3,000 miles of Great Lakes

shoreline, more than 11,000 inland lakes and tens of thou-

sands of miles of rivers and streams for anglers to fish.

During the free fishing weekend, a number of fishing

events will be offered in Cadillac and throughout the

state. A total of 26 events were officially registered last

winter with the Michigan DNR for the free fishing weekend with more than 3,100 attendees across the state.

Each year the Carl T. Johnson Hunting and Fishing

Center hosts its annual Free Fishing Weekend Fishing

Derby. The derby includes two divisions; one for anglers

ages 4 to 10 and one for those aged 11 to 16.

John Zakrajsek, interpreter for the Hunting and Fish

ing Center, said the facility is working to bring a few ac-

tivities to the center for families headed out on the lakes

during the free fishing weekend. He said the free fishing

weekend is a way to encourage people to experience fish

ing for walleye, pike and panfish on lakes Cadillac and

Mitchell.

Its a great introduction for people who may notnormally get out on the waters to fish, Zakrajsek said.

Hopefully, it will become a tradition and fishing will be

permanent part of more families outdoor activities.

During the free fishing weekend all fishing regulation

still apply.

Enjoy Northern Michigan this winter with some

fun in the snow.

Michigan is home to 6,500 miles of snowmobile

trails for snowmobile riders to tour.

Jim Thomas, a member of Cadillac Winter Promo-

tion, said Northern Michigan is one of the premier

locations for snowmobile trails throughout the state.

The Cadillac Trail system has more than 200 miles

of groomed trails and spreads through the Huron-Manistee National Forest.

Our trail system is excellent. We have trails that

can go everywhere from Mesick to the Caberfae Ski

Lodge, Thomas said.

He said the Fred Meijer White Pine Trail is a favor-

ite for snowmobilers each winter. The 92 mile trail

has an 88 mile section open from Cadillac to Grand

Rapids.

The trail continues through Reed City, a popular

crossroad for Michigans Rails-to-Trails systems.

Riders can get onto the White Pine Trail and Pere

Marquette Trail near the Reed City Depot. The depot

is located at the crossroads of U.S. 131 and U.S. 10.Fred Bartholomew, president of the Michigan Trail

Blazers, said Missaukee County also boosts miles of

snowmobile trails for winter enthusiasts.

The Mis-Kal Trail is a 50-plus mile trail system

throughout Missaukee County that interconnects

trails to Kalkaska, Roscommon, Crawford and Grand

Traverse counties. The main trunk, the 6 trail,

runs east and west. The 651 trail connects the 6

trail to Lake City. The trail has a state trailhead on

old M-131 just before the Manistee River Bridge nea

the Manistee River.

Bartholomew said the wooded trail system is grea

for anyone wanting to ride through a beautiful na-

ture trail this winter.

The Mis-Kal Trail is a really scenic trail withviews of the Manistee Bridge and plenty of small

rivers, Bartholomew said. Its also a good transpo

tation hub into Lake City.

Bartholomew said the trail is one of the most hig

ly-trafficked trails in the area for snowmobile rider

He said last winters heavy snowfall brought plenty

of snowmobile traffic to the area.

Thomas said most snowmobile trails will be open

by the official date of Dec. 1 until the end of March

The Michigan Snowmobile Association has listin

for area trails in Wexford, Osceola, Missaukee and

Lake counties. The MSA also list trails for other loc

tions in the Upper and Lower Peninsula.Permits are required for all snowmobile riders.

The Michigan Department of Natural Resources

suggest snowmobile riders remember to never con-

sume alcohol before heading out on the trails.

CADILLAC The North American Snow Fest is again

going to hit Cadillac this winter and people should ex-

pect everything that was at last years event and more.

With momentum building over the past couple years,

NASF Committee President Jack Simcock said it will

continue at this years event. That momentum can be

seen with advertisers putting dollars toward the festival

as well as the local support.

This year the NASF will be from Feb. 5 through

Feb. 7. Simcock did not have all the details at press tim

but he did say there are tons of events happening that

people have come to expect, like the Miss NASF Pagean

and the chili cook-off. He added the snowmobile races o

Lake Cadillac also should be part of the event in 2015.

Thursday night will be as it always is. We will have

the Silent Observer and WTCM Chili Cook off and Mis

NASF pageant, he said. The rest of the events are sti

in the planning stages.

NASF.Go ahead, take the plunge


40/64



Last year a new event, an arm wrestling competition, was

held but planners are not certain if it will return. There

also was two nights of live music as well as a Universyl

Wrestlings Body Slam on Ice. Although the event was still

early in the planning stages, Simcock said he could say the

event will now be housed at the Cherry Grove Event Center.

It is believed that moving the location of the indoor activi-

ties for the NASF will enhance them and improve turnout.

It is right on the trail so it will be easier for the snow-

mobilers to get there, he said. The guests who come to

Cadillac for the NASF who couldnt make it to the indoor

activities can now make it.

Simcock said as the event gets closer he should be able to

talk about various new events that are not nailed down just

yet. As the event nears check out www.nasfcadillac.com for

more information.

The (NASF) committee is looking forward to another

successful event, Simcock said.

The center was named after local outdoorsman and

conservationist Carl T. Johnson. Its wall-sized aquarium

of native-Michigan fish and mammals showcased at thecenter are all displayed to promote local fishing and hunt-

ing, Zakrajsek said.

The center opened in 1992 and offers a variety of out-

door educational programs such as the Hard Water Fish-

ing School and rod building class.

Starting on Tuesday, Dec. 2, 2014, the Michigan Depart-

ment of Natural Resources and Carl T. Johnson Hunting

and Fishing Center are offering a rod building class for

CADILLAC On select weekends during the fall andwinter, the Elks Lodge in Cadillac becomes a center of

good vibrations courtesy of the Gopherwood Concert

Series.

Musicians representing a wide range of genres have

performed at Gopherwood, which began 31 years ago as a

celebration of American folk roots.

Organizer Paul Brown said the concert series got its

unique name because the original founders all used to

heat their homes with wood. Hence Gopherwood, (go for

wood) was chosen.

In the past, notable performers have included Vance

Gilbert, Mose Allison, Richie Havens, the Red Sea Pe-

destrians and Blue Molly.During the last few years, Brown said attendance at the

shows has increased as a result of more widespread expo-

sure on social networks.

He said at least two shows sold out during the 2013-2014

season.

For this years series, which begins Oct. 11, some home-

town performers will return and some new faces will

grace the Gopherwood stage for the first time.

The opening show of the season will feature Robbie

Schaefer (from Eddie from Ohio), Rachael Davis and Jak

Armerding.

On Nov. 8, Cadillac native Luke Winslow King will

bring his delta blues musical stylings back to town for ashow and CD release party.

Other artists slated to perform this year include Stella

the Madcat Midnight Blues Journey and Roosevelt Digg

Tickets can be purchased at Toy Town in downtown

Cadillac, or by calling (231) 846-8383. Children ages 12 an

under attend free of charge.
