Bonsaitree

I am in Wisconsin, right on the shore of Lake Michigan. I bought 5 Japanese Maples about 5 years ago. Tried to grow them bigger and keep them alive through our winters, wanted to make a Bonsai Group out of them. I have one left, now I have a chance to get several Japanese Maple for free. I don't want to take them, if I will just kill them again. What is the secret to the Maples wintering over. They say we are now zone 5 along the lake shore, I wonder about that. Can anybody help me, I really want to have a japanese Maple bonsai tree.
