Then, on the icy Feb- ruary roads, the vehicle that Heather was riding in went out of control, rolled, and she lost her life. In Heather's memory her par- ents, Amanda and Jeremy Valerius, started the Heather Rose Foundation with the goal of rais- ing money for high school stu- dents to use toward post-second- ary goals. Amanda Valerius says that their family was motivated to start the foundation's work because Heather had a facility for putting herself in other's shoes, and for trying to help others whenever she could. “My daughter had a huge heart and tried to make people feel loved and special, she would al- Heather Rose Foundation Holds Motorcycle Run Benefit By Kitty Mayo ways reach out to other students when they weren't comfortable,” said Valerius. The foundation continues to award a legacy scholarship in Zimmerman, where Heather was well known by other students, along with several for Two Har- bors High School students. “Even though most people on the north shore didn't know Heather, it's important for us to give here because the amount of love and support the community has shown our family is amazing,” said Valerius. The 3rd Annual Motorcycle Run for the Heather Rose Foundation will be held on Saturday, Septem- ber 18th at the Tracks and Racks in Beaver Bay. Registration starts at 11:00 am and “kickstands up” at 12:30 pm.

Burton’s career started in 2006 with a broken heart, a broken- down van, and a haphazard tour across Canada in a van named Lucky. This set the tone for an artist life driven by adventure, spontaneity, and a desire to con- nect with people from all walks of life. 3 Minivans, and several grey- hound trips later, Sarah has played on average, 150 shows a year, released 5 albums and played many festivals across North America, finding and shar- ing the inspiration for hundreds of songs. Rooted in folk, and skirt- ing pop, rock and country – Sarah’s music is a collage of her own adventures, and the people she meets along the way. Her songs have made their way to the big screen, earned college radio charting in US and Canada and commercial radio play in Canada and Europe. Sarah Burton, who draws her inspiration from the likes of Tom Petty and Loretta Lynn, is no newcomer to the world of record- ing and performing. With her fifth studio album, Give Me What 1 Sarah Burton - Tumbleweeds, Truth and Terlingua, TX Come to Silver Bay Want, Sarah premiers a vignette of new age wild west songs about internet dating, crazy exes, getting older and feeling like ev- eryone around you is in love and you're not. While Canadian-born singer-songwriter Sarah Burton originally relo- cated to the US for ex- panded career opportuni- ties, she says she had an ulterior motive. “All of us Canadians who go south have a warm spot for warmth” she laughs. Burton embraces the heat in Terlingua, TX. The far-flung desert town celebrates eccentricity; in the recent past, a beer-swilling goat was elected mayor. “It’s pretty wild” Burton says. ·This weird juxtaposition of a small town with a vibrant nightlife, filled with music, cul- ture, art and crafts." Burton notes that in alternative rock and pop music, female repre- sentation is on the rise. She is dis- mayed that country music and the Americana genre remain male- dominated. “1 went to the Ameri- cana Fest last year and there were a lot of great female nominees and representation on stage, but they didn't win." she says. “They were nominated, but the Americana vot- ers chose more men. It sucks that it has to be the women's music scene versus the men's music scene. I wish there was a music scene where people were repre- sented according to skill and awe- someness.” Awesomeness indeed: An au- thentic, inspired artist, Burton has clearly paid her proverbial dues. On her title track, "Give Me What I Want." to the reverberant accom- paniment of a plaintive steel gui- tar, she sings a droll plea to the heavens for a romantic reward. “It’s taken me all of these years to realize that if you want something you have to ask for it” she con- cludes. Burton is no stranger to Silver Bay as this will be her fourth visit our community. We are pleased to announce that Timber Coffee Company and Shore Happy Food Truck will be joining us as well. Bring a blanket and a lawn chair and enjoy the show. Rocky Wall Productions is a Sil- ver Bay nonprofit organization fo- cused on producing and promoting live music events in Silver Bay and on Lake Superior’s North Shore. The SILVER BAY MUSIC IN THE PARK CONCERT SERIES is sponsored by a generous grant from Lovin’ Lake County and as- sistance from Best of the North Shore.
