Sunset sessions Sept. 14 in Lansing Lanesboro pop-up play ‘Time for Women: 150

Years of Leadership’ highlights notable women

Working with a few other organizers in the area, Decorah musician Jeni Grouws, is helping the Red Barn Campground and Restaurant on Lansing’s west edge, in welcoming award-winning songwriters for a one-day festival titled Sunset Sessions.

Grouws will join Kevin Burt, International Blues Challenge winner and Gulf Coast artist from Iowa City and Frank Martin Bush, an award-winning artist from Wisconsin. Also taking the stage for a portion of the day are JR Brink from Waukon and three area young people: 18-year-old Elayna Hook, daughter of Byron Hook and Emily Hook of Decorah; 17-year-old Annie Ellingson from Waukon; and 14-year-old Hudson Thirtyacre from Shueyville.

Sunset Sessions starts at 3 p.m. with featured musicians Hook, Ellingson and Thirtyacre; and then from 4 to 6 p.m., the headliners will take over.

Those attending also are invited to stick around after the show for some campfire songs with JR Brink.

Decorah musician Jeni Grouws will launch an eight-month artist-in-residency in Omaha, Nebraska later this month, and her last few weeks in the area will be filled to the brim with concerts, solo shows and outdoor appearances. Coupled with a hectic performance schedule, she’s putting her talents to work at an upcoming outdoor concert Sept. 14 at the Red Barn Campground in Lansing. (Photo courtesy Julie Simiele.)

The annual History Alive!

Pop-up play will be performed Sept. 14 and 15 with shows at 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. at St. Mane Theatre in Lanesboro, Minnesota. This year’s original play “Time for Women: 150 Years of Leadership” highlights strong, notable women and suffragists in southeast Minnesota and St. Paul.

In two scenes encompassing 1870-1970, the audience will witness many stories of struggle for women’s civil and voting rights. The audience will meet 1870 suffragist Sarah Stearns of Rochester, Minnesota; publisher Bella French; Henrietta Turner Henry of Lanesboro; abolitionist Harriet Stevens of Rushford, Minnesota; black suffragist Nellie Francis, indigenous lawyer Marie Bottineau Baldwin and Bertha Moller – one of Minnesota’s force-fed suffragists and 1970s feminists.

The show also celebrates the centennial of indigenous suffrage in 2024.

All are welcome to participate in a suffrage rally during intermission.

The show will conclude with a discussion led by League of Women Voters members.

History Alive Lanesboro uses storytelling and the performing arts to deepen the understanding of past ideas, events and people, as seen through the lens of small southeastern Minnesota towns.

“Time for Women, 150 Years of Leadership” has toured to five communities in southeast Minnesota and St. Paul and writer Jane Peck adapts the script to each location’s history.

The St. Mane Theatre is located at 206 Parkway Ave. N., Lanesboro. For more information and tickets, visit www.historyalivelanesboro.org/eventsand-tours.

Celebrating Castalia’s Tractor Day Revival Castalia held its second annual Tractor Day Revival celebration Saturday, greatly increasing its size from last year’s event. Several hundred people from all over northeast Iowa attended and participated in the festivities, which included a truck and tractor show, UTV/golf cart parade, bag-throw competition, live music, comedian, children’s attractions and a fireworks display that rivaled many small towns’ July 4 fireworks shows.

LEFT- Castalia Tractor Day Revival Parade Queen Lois Schnuelle, pictured here with her son, moved to the tiny town from south of Postville in 1969. She has three children, 10 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren — all of whom visited her in Castalia for the special event.

Check out more Castalia photos in the September 5 Decorah Leader and online at decorahleader.com.

WinnMed hosts 10th annual Grand Community Picnic Construction lifts became part of the festive backdrop last week outside WinnMed during the hospital’s 10th annual Grand Community Picnic. Community members turned out to enjoy a free meal, live music, children’s entertainment and other activities the afternoon of Aug. 29.

The Winneshiek County Dairy Promoter’s Moo-Mobile was also on scene during this year’s Grand Community Picnic at WinnMed. Many visitors took the opportunity to purchase freshly-made milkshakes to go with the afternoon’s free meal. Children held as still as possible while they had their faces painted with festive features. More photos in the September 5 Decorah Leader. (Decorah Leader photos by Seth Boyes)

Keep the barbecue fired up Backyard barbecues remain popular even when the summer slowly begins to wind down. Though traditional favorites like hamburgers and hot dogs always have a place at the table, grilling afficionados may be on the lookout for new recipes to test their skills.

“Buttermilk Chicken Kebabs” from “Casablanca: My Moroccan Food” (Firefly Books) by Nargisse Benkabbou does not disappoint.

Even though buttermilk is not a traditional Moroccan ingredient, the author uses it to tenderize the chicken and make these kebabs even more mouthwatering with an added hint of tang. These smoky skewers can be enjoyed on their own, or cooked and added to salads or served on flatbreads.

Buttermilk Chicken Kebabs Serves 4 as a starter

1⁄2 cup buttermilk 1⁄2 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped 3 garlic cloves, peeled and chopped 2 tablespoons lemon juice 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 tablespoon clear honey 1 teaspoon ground turmeric 1 teaspoon ground ginger 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1⁄2 teaspoon salt, or more to taste 1⁄2 teaspoon ground black pepper 1 pound, 2 ounces boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into bite-sized chunks
