Join Mariann Janosko '63 and her husband Jerry Onken at the Lake Erie Creamery on Sunday, October 10 at 3pm. We will tour their creamery and taste their wonderful cheeses, and perhaps some other tasty local items. Mariann will also speak about the path that lead her from an English major to cheese making, and perhaps on her recent trip to Italy to learn how to make Italian cheeses. We will have an opportunity to also purchase the cheeses we taste. A wonderful event from Oberlin friends and family!
Lake Erie Creamery is a small urban creamery in the city of Cleveland, specializing in making artisan goat's milk cheese. Begun in 2006, the creamery occupies a corner of a redeveloped, multi-use building.
Mariann makes all the cheeses by hand. She begins by gently pasteurizing each 50-gallon batch to preserve the milk's quality and character. Then she adds cultures to the milk and starts it on its way to becoming cheese.
While some of the cheese is aging, Jerry sells and delivers the fresh chèvre. Until now, Jerry has sold all the cheese locally: to chefs committed to using fresh and local ingredients, at farmers' markets and at small retail outlets that care for our cheese the way we would.
Lake Erie Creamery also conserves resources by closing the loop in the farm-to-city cycle by sending cheese making byproducts back to the farm. The whey travels to the farm to feed Hampshire hogs and pastured poultry that then appear on menus at some of Cleveland's best restaurants.

Black River Cafe and Oberlin Summer Theater Festival
Thanks to all the alumni who came out to Black River Cafe for dinner and then to Oberlin Summer Theater Festival's production of Much Ado About Nothing. Dinner was delicious (many thanks to Joe Waltzer '97, BRC owner, and Chef Curtis Gamble) and the show kept us laughing.

Les Délices and Debra Nagy '00/'02
A note from Debra Nagy '00/'02:
Les Délices had a fabulous first season of Cleveland concerts and we have you – our supporters - to thank for our successes!
We performed live on WCPN’s Around Noon with Dee Perry & had all three of our concert recordings featured on WKSU.
We also had a slew of rave reviews for our concerts and CD in the local and national press. Highlights included NPR’s Harmonia naming our debut CD “One of the Top Ten Early Music Discoveries of 2009,” and ClevelandClassical.com dubbed our May 22 concert at Tregoning & Co. Gallery one of Cleveland’s most memorable performances this year.
Next season promises to be even better! We’ll return to the William Busta and Tregoning & Co. galleries for our Saturday night concerts, and we’re thrilled to be named artists in residence at Plymouth Church for 2010-11, where we’ll continue to present Sunday afternoon programs. For more on our 2010-11 season, click here.
Plus, Les Délices looks forward to its first Northeast tour in late-April/early-May 2011 with performances in Boston, MA and Providence, RI leading up to our New York debut at the Frick Collection on May 1, 2011!
Here’s wishing you a great summer! We look forward to seeing you at our next concerts in October!
With best wishes,
Debra
