HOW DO YOU CHOOSE TO LIVE INSPIRED? As a patriotic, cultural, and community leader, The War Memorial team often contemplates the meaning of patriotism. It seems that too frequently our days are defined by questions of red states versus blue states, or the tumult of whether to stand or sit during our national anthem. During these seemingly chaotic moments, and especially as we move towards Memorial Week, we ask you — and we ask ourselves — how is patriotism truly defined? The War Memorial embraces a broad definition of patriotism, which is inspired by the past, present, and future actions of the selfless individuals who stand post each day. A definition inclusive of all those who serve, including veterans, active duty military personnel, and first responders. A definition seeded by three simple words: We the People. This May, as part of Memorial Week, The War Memorial will once again host our annual and poignant ceremony, Our Community Salutes, during which brave young men and women take their military Oath of Service and begin a new chapter in their lives. Our definition of patriotism is inspired by their actions and oath — I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me, God. We also believe that patriotism is inspired by the simple, yet everlasting, words of our Constitution — We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. We the People. This beautiful phrase does not indicate a small, exclusive group. We means us — all of us, in our day-to-day communities, homes, and families. We the People are thankful for the Blessings of Liberty. We the People are continuing our journey to become a more perfect Union. And We the People find inspired patriotism in these words. As you peruse the pages of Live Inspired Magazine, exploring The War Memorial’s upcoming events, our photo diary of recent successes, and our packed schedule of classes and activities, remember We the People. Remember that patriotism must be in all that we do as a community. Thank you for choosing to live inspired and for your continued support of The War Memorial. n

Charles Burke President and CEO, The War Memorial

BRAVO, TED!

J. Theodore (Ted) Everingham Chairman of the Board

Dear Ted, On behalf of The Grosse Pointe War Memorial Association’s Board of Directors, the entire staff, and our wonderful community, we offer our sincere thanks and admiration for a job well done. Your tenure as Chairman of the Board has helped guide our beloved institution through a time of transformation, energization, and growth in all areas of our mission. Whether helping to shape The War Memorial’s strategic plan or emceeing An Evening of Red, White and Blue, your work and actions have consistently embodied our mission to be a patriotic, cultural, and community leader. You’ve remained true to our core values, and have allowed these values to impact your actions, decisions, and engagement with the community and our Board: curiosity, transparency, excellence, service, integrity, leadership, accessibility, and enduring resolve. Through your focus on The War Memorial’s strategic objectives, we’ve met, and continue to meet, a number of our goals:

A beautifully renovated front entry, incorporating the historic doors into a fully ADA-compliant and accessible entrance

Campus-wide improvements, including reliable Wi-Fi throughout the historic and modern buildings

The implementation and continued development of our Patriot Initiative, allowing The War Memorial to give back to those who gave so much

A true focus on diverse arts, cultural, and patriotic programming

Thank you, Ted, for all you’ve done — and continue to do — for The War Memorial. Thank you for your time, your commitment to our mission, and your unwavering support of this venerable institution. n

MAJOR MARY JENNINGS HEGAR AUTHOR OF SHOOT LIKE A GIRL BE THE CHANGE On July 29, 2009, Air National Guard major Mary Jennings “MJ” Hegar was shot down while on a Medevac mission on her third tour in Afghanistan. Despite being wounded, she fought the enemy and saved the lives of her crew and their patients. But soon she would face a new battle: to give women who serve on the front lines the credit they deserve. Commissioned into the U.S. Air Force, MJ Hegar was selected for pilot training by the Air National Guard, where she finished at the top of her class. She then served three tours in Afghanistan, flying combat search-and-rescue missions, culminating in a harrowing rescue attempt that would earn

MJ the Purple Heart as well as the Distinguished Flying Cross with Valor Device. But it was on American soil that Hegar would embark on her greatest challenge—to eliminate the military’s Ground Combat Exclusion Policy, which kept female armed service members from officially serving in combat roles despite their long-standing record of doing so with honor. In Shoot Like a Girl, MJ takes the reader on a dramatic journey through her military career: an inspiring, humorous, and thrilling true story of a brave, high-spirited, and unforgettable woman who has spent much of her life ready to sacrifice everything for her country, her fellow man, and her sense of justice. n

NEW ORFORD STRING QUARTET

Photo by Sian Richards

The New Orford String Quartet is comprised of the concertmasters and principal cellist and violist of the Montreal, Detroit, and Toronto Symphonies. Jonathan Crow, violin Concertmaster, Toronto Symphony Orchestra Andrew Wan, violin Concertmaster, Montreal Symphony Orchestra Eric Nowlin, viola Principal Viola, Detroit Symphony Orchestra Brian Manker, cello Principal Cello, Montreal Symphony Orchestra Learn more about each player at www.neworford.com.

Check out video of The New Orford String Quartet in performance at www.warmemorial.org/arts

Four like-minded musicians formed the New Orford String Quartet with the goal of developing a new model for a touring string quartet. Their concept — to bring four elite orchestral leaders together on a regular basis over many years to perform chamber music at the highest level — has resulted in a quartet that maintains a remarkably fresh perspective while bringing a palpable sense of joy to each performance. The Toronto Star has described this outcome as “nothing short of electrifying.” The original Orford String Quartet gave its first public concert in 1965, and became one of the best-known and most illustrious chamber music ensembles. After more than 2,000 concerts on six continents, the Orford String Quartet gave its last concert in 1991. Two decades later, in July 2009, the New Orford String Quartet took up this mantle, giving its first concert for a sold-out audience at the Orford Arts Centre. The New Orford has since gone on to perform concerts throughout North America and lead residencies at the University of Toronto, Mount Royal University, and Syracuse University. In 2011, the Quartet recorded its debut album of the final quartets of Schubert and Beethoven, released by Bridge Records to international acclaim. The recording was hailed as one of the top CDs of 2011 by La Presse and CBC In Concert and nominated for a JUNO Award in 2012. Critics have described the recording as “... flawless...a match made in heaven!” (Classical Music Sentinel); “a performance of rare intensity” (Audiophile Audition); and “nothing short of electrifying... listen and weep.” (The Toronto Star) The New Orford is dedicated to promoting Canadian works, both new commissions and neglected repertoire from the previous century. Each New Orford String Quartet project has included performances of a major Canadian string quartet from the 20th century including works by Airat Ichmouratov, Jacques Héacqu, R. Murray Schafer, and Claude Vivier. The Quartet thrives on exploring the rich chamber

music repertoire; recent collaborations include those with pianists Marc-André Hamelin and Menahem Pressler. The Quartet regularly tours in the major cities of North America, including Washington, D.C., Toronto, and Los Angeles; at the same time, the members feel strongly about bringing this music to areas that don’t often hear it, and as a result perform frequently in tiny, rural places. As part of their leadership positions at the major orchestras in Montreal and Toronto, each member of the Quartet regularly has the opportunity to perform as a soloist with his orchestra. Members of the New Orford String Quartet teach at McGill University and the University of Toronto. n

NEW LIFE for OLD DOORS Entryways have a certain power — they help to define our first impression of a space, lending a feeling of austerity or coziness, grandeur or humbleness.

Photo by Ryan Nichols

At The War Memorial, we’re dedicated to creating a fully accessible, welcoming environment for all people, and our historic entryway now reflects that goal. Our ornate double-doors have been retrofitted with invisible hardware allowing them to open automatically for differently-abled guests – or simply people with full arms. Two stone ramps, along with new front steps, blend seamlessly with the 1910 architecture of the Alger estate, and are ready to welcome guests on-foot and in wheelchairs. The vestibule now abuts our grand foyer without an additional step. The War Memorial offers sincere gratitude to Ed Russell and Russell Development, Inc., for their incredible efforts in so skillfully completing this renovation. n

The War Memorial recognizes with gratefulness the generosity of S. Gary Spicer, Sr., who, along with his colleagues at the Doris J. and Donald L. Duchene, Sr. Foundation, has enabled a more accessible, welcoming War Memorial campus for all.

He has performed on a variety of stages around the world to esteemed audiences, from Ireland’s National Concert Hall to Music Crossroads in Zambia, and from the infamous Festival Interceltique de Lorient to a garden party hosted by Uachtarán an hÉireann, the President of Ireland. After graduating from Colorado College, American Joanna Hyde was selected as one of ten scholars by a panel of distinguished arts professionals to receive the Jack Kent Cook Foundation’s Graduate Arts Award.
