Commissioners Talk
Planning in Prince
Frederick, Driver Safety

News
Dominion Developing
New Bypass Road at
Cove Point LNG Terminal

By Sarah Miller
Staff Writer
Plans are slowly but surely moving forward for the Armory Square area of Prince
Frederick.
Armory Square encompasses the site
of the old Calvert Middle School and the armory building and, during the Oct. 7 Board
of County Commissioners approved $47,500
to be spent for advertising, for professional
review of proposed submittals and to help
pay for the cost of an economic impact study
of this specific project for the developer selected, according to documents provided at
the meeting.
According to Community Planning and
Building Director Tom Barnett, his department has 50 developers they will be requesting proposals from. The proposals they are
seeking will involve developing Armory
Square and other plans from the 2013 charrette process, Barnett said.
In addition to discussion about Armory
Square, the Board of County Commissioners
listened to a presentation from the Maryland
Highway Safety Office and the Motor Vehicle
Administration about the Strategic Highway
Safety Plan (SHSP) and their efforts to create an impact at the local level, by urging
local governments to create their own local
SHSP.

The presentation showed that, with the


exception of 2012, the number of fatal accidents has been in a downward trend, while
the overall number of accidents has been on
the rise since 2011. In Calvert County, the
number of deaths has been on a slight increase, from seven in 2011 to 9 in 2012 to 11
in 2013, while the overall number of people
injured in crashes has been declining. Common factors in accidents resulting in injuries
include speed, improper seatbelt use, and
driving while impaired.

for upcoming Board of County Commissioners meetings, visit www.co.cal.md.us.

Dominion has begun survey work


on a new bypass road that will enable
residents living east of the Cove Point
LNG terminal to have another egress
point from Cove Point Road in the unlikely event of an emergency. All work
will be done at the companys expense.
We are doing this voluntarily as a
result of our review of the safety, security
and emergency preparedness programs
at Cove Point and similar facilities, to
help us maintain the highest standards
of performance, said Mike Frederick,
vice president-LNG Operations. This is
part of our long-standing commitment to
ensure the safety of the community and
contribute to the overall wellbeing of the
community.
This initiative is not required for
our existing facilities or for the LNG
export project, Frederick said. It is in
response to feedback from the Calvert
County Board of County Commissioners, the Southern Maryland Congres-

sional and state delegations and citizens


at more than 60 public meetings the
company has held since announcing its
planned export project.
The new route will link Cove Point
Road east of the plant entrance to Dasher
Drive and provide access to Little Cove
Point Road, which intersects Cove Point
Road west of the terminal. The road will
be open to traffic only when necessary
and will be operational before the export
project is completed.
Dominion also has been working
with Calvert County to come up with a
plan that will ensure around-the-clock
access for emergency responders to
neighborhoods along Cove Point and
Little Cove Point roads throughout the
three-year construction period.

Chamber of Commerce
Hosts Commissioner
Candidate Forum

Local

News

By Sarah Miller
Staff Writer
Two hours, 11 candidates, seven questions. The Calvert County Chamber of
Commerce invited the Calvert County commissioner candidates to address community concerns during an Oct. 1 candidate forum.
Questions asked ranged from how the candidates would strive to make Calvert
County business friendly to their opinions on signage in the area and the state priority funding areas.
A number of the candidates are small business owners or have shopped at local
businesses. Businesses would benefit from having signage visible from Route 2/4.
Current Board of County Commissioners President Pat Nutter said the time has long
since passed for the county to update the ordinance governing signage. Candidate
Mike Hart said he supports ordinances that allow all businesses equal opportunity to
advertise, without giving preferential treatment to once business over another.
Opinions about the former Calvert Middle School property were varied. Candidate Paul Harrison said the county needs to be smart about what is done with the
property, suggesting part of it be transferred to the State Highway Administration
to widen Route 2/4 in Prince Frederick. Candidate Tom Hejl disagreed, saying the
county should lease the property out so it will bring in revenue.
Commissioner candidates will have another opportunity to answer questions at
the League of Women Voters forum at St. John Vianney Church in Prince Fredrick
at 6 p.m. on Oct. 16.

broken window, access was not obtained to the inside of the shed. Investigation continues.

and she gave the judge an emotional speech as to why


she should not have to complete the remaining days.
She stated the time she spent in jail was a rude awakening and she has learned the error of her ways.
Judge Chandlee said although he believed the
defendant has learned her lesson; he could not accommodate her more than he already has and said
he did not want anything to happen to her children.
Donahoo will start her jail time on Oct. 17 at 6

A History of Excellence

Huntingtown NJROTC Unit Strives to Maintain High Rating

Photo courtesy of Naval Science Instructor Kevin Peck

By Sarah Miller
Staff Writer
The Navy Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps
(NJROTC) unit at Huntingtown High School received the distinction of being the best in the Mid-Atlantic Region, and they

FOO

are working hard to maintain their high standard of excellence.


Their distinction came following a thorough inspection,
which ranged from a personnel inspection to checking supplies
and ensuring everything is stored as it should be, according
to retired Chief Warrant Officer and Naval Science Instructor
Chris Morgan.
The inspection was only a small part of earning their distinction, Morgan said. The rest was attributed to the NJROTCs
involvement in their community and the activities they are involved in.
The company participates in a number of volunteer activities, said Cadet Lieutenant Commander Zachary Barhan. Activities include Operation Hope on the Chesapeake, the Patuxent River Appreciation Days parade, Farming for Hunger, Toys
for Tots and the Charlotte Hall Veterans facility.

In addition to volunteer opportunities, students can be involved in camping and orienteering trips, air rifle competitions,
and academic competitions, among other activities, Barhan
said.
The NJROTC is designed to produce civic-minded leaders, according to Retired Chief Petty Officer and Naval Science Instructor Kevin Peck. This involves giving back to the
community, he said, adding that while the NJROTC is a good
gateway into a career in the military, students are not required
to join the military due their involvement in the NJROTC.
Earning the distinction of best in the region raises the bar,
Morgan said.

Teachers all over the county are working to prepare students


for college and careers after graduation, and the Career and Tech
Center is an integral part of making that happen.
We do our very best to prepare them [students] for whats
next for them, said Career and Tech Center Principal Mark
Wilding.
Most of the programs at the career and tech center have a
certificate to be obtained at the end of the program, Wilding said.
For example, Academy of Health Professions students sit for their
Certified Nursing Assistant or Geriatric Nursing Assistant exams
before they graduate. Cosmetology students sit for the state cosmetology exam, which includes theory and practical portions.
Earning certificates does a couple things for students, Wilding said. Nursing students can get a job at a hospital or nursing
center and work their way through college. Not every student is
college bound, but they graduate ready for the future, Wilding
said. Some programs ensure that students graduate with the credentials to get into a trade school or apprenticeship program.
The school ensures that students are working with up-todate machinery, computers, and programs, Wilding said. Teachers bring in field experts to talk to their classes, and students get
experience in building their resumes and interviewing.
Nobodys standing still, Wilding said.
The Career and Tech Center gives students an opportunity
to try out a career field without putting down thousands of dollars. It saves time and money for the students, Wilding said. They
sit down with students and go over the options open to them, and
help guide them in the direction they are best suited for and most
interested in.

Business in the Front, Politics in the Back

How the Board of County Commissioners Function Like a Business

By Lauren Procopio
Staff Writer
Calvert County Commissioners Steve Weems, Pat
Nutter and Evan Slaughenhoupt, talked about the different
facets of the Commissioners Board and how it goes beyond
politics.
Its political to get the position, but I think once youre
in the position you have to try and set that all aside, Slaughenhoupt said.
The commissioners attend various presentations, ribbon cuttings, proclamations and events in the county.
There are a lot of people who think its, oh they meet
on Tuesday, thats it, but actually the job starts usually Sunday night about 9 p.m. and ends the following Sunday night
at about 8:59 p.m., which it begins to start again, Nutter
said. We spend a lot of time at different functions that people expect us to and we spend a lot of time during the week
speaking to different groups, so its a job that you always
seem to have something to do. I mean were booked almost
everyday. Its one thing or another. Its an everyday job, he
continued.
Nutter said he spends at least once a month meeting
with the board presidents from St. Marys and Charles
County. Slaughenhoupt also added how citizens dont see
the various meetings the board has in the morning and the
other concerns the commissioners have to address.
There are probably 70 or 80 various volunteer boards
and commissions that we sponsorand a lot of us commissioners serve as the board of representatives on those
commissions, Slaughenhoupt said. So we have meetings
throughout the week on these various commissions and
they generally dont get any press or attention, but its a lot
of time and work on those things as well, he continued.
Weems addressed how the board is like a business, especially with finances.
Our primary objective is the appropriation of taxpayer funding and for me, its best use. It really is like a business in a sense that the revenue is derived from our income
taxes and from our property taxes, property taxes account
for 60 percent and then 30 percent income tax and roughly
10 percent from other sources. You got on the one-side revenue, one-side expenditures, Weems explained. Its just
like your household you dont overextend your budget and
you live within your means.
Another major concern for the commissioners is the
development of the countys master plan, which Slaughenhoupt said is the main, top document for the county.
We have staff people who basically pull it together,
but its done by input and meetings with different community members, community organizations and interested
citizens, who participate in that. Then it gets vetted through

a process so it becomes an official document that the commissioners adopt on behalf of the county, Slaughenhoupt
said. It really does end up the more active the citizens are
then the better, the more clear the guidance for us to follow
because we are implementing what the citizens want, not so
much necessarily what we want.
This all comes together based on whats good for the
people and what you can do with that particular area, Nutter added.
The Board of Commissioners also functions like a
business in a sense that the commissioners all show respect
and professionalism to one another, which is not found in
every body of government.
I had a self-goal coming in, because the previous
board had personalities that had a lot of conflict among
them, for me the overriding goal was to try to make sure
that even if there were disagreements and even if I was the
only one that wanted something and didnt get my way to

let it drop, because its more important to serve the citizens


in a more collaborative, a more professional, a more personable type manner with the fellow commissioners, Slaughenhoupt explained.
Just like a business where the management or owners
stay in contact with their customers, the commissioners always are in contact with their constituents.
You see this ipad, each one of us has it, it allows us to
stay in touch continuously it is a primary means of communication with constituents, we receive a lot of emails and
I can respond almost instantly, Slaughenhoupt said. Nutter
added they receive roughly 65 to 100 emails a day.
The Calvert County Commissioners have a meeting
every Tuesday morning at 10 a.m., which is open to the
public. Their office is located at 175 Main Street in Prince

Letters to the Editor

Letter to the Editor Response

I have knocked on thousands of Calvert


County doors in the last 14 months and have
learned a lot about our community and your concerns. What I have heard from so many of you
Democrats, Republicans and especially Independents is how weary you are of all the arguing,
the mean-spiritedness and the distortions of our
politics today. In the last days of this campaign,
were seeing it in discussion about a so-called
vehicle mileage tax.
An Oct. 2 letter-to-the-editor titled 2009
Law Leads to 2014 Decision implies that I
would support such a device in order to address
climate change. Never mind that no such legislation exists. Forget for a moment that such a
device came up only as an option for consideration in a 2012 Department of Transportation
report when I wasnt even in office.
Had I been in the General Assembly two
years ago, I would have advised the bureaucrats
that they were wasting their ink. It is counterpro-

ductive to even suggest placing such a burden on


the people of Calvert County, many of who drive
many miles to make a living.
If a so-called mileage tax ever does come
up while I am representing you in Annapolis, I
will fight to kill it and I will win because of my
proven ability to bring people together to support
good ideas for Calvert County and to get rid of
the bad ones.
We have less than a month before Election
Day. Unfortunately, some people treat elections
as a war and are willing to do or say anything to
get their candidate elected. I caution everyone
to be alert to distortions and false choices. This
is not a war, it is a choice. Feel free to contact
me directly if you have questions about my positions. My contact information is on my website,

Re: Kullen vs. Fisher


Re: Letter to the Editor, Calvert County
Times, Sept 18 Issue, "Kullen vs. Fisher"
I was so glad to hear of Sue Kullen's respectful responsiveness in regard to Lynne Gilles'
and her very important animal rights issues. Ms.
Kullen certainly seems like a very nice lady.
Unfortunately, I have to say that I have been
more impressed by Sue Kullen's record of being
a tax and spend Democrat over the years. It was
Sue Kullen who put in her own Rain Tax, voted
for the Gas Tax, voted for a Bill that has been
recently proposed, the Mileage Tax. She also
voted for the Car Registration Tax, the Income
Tax Hike, the Sales Tax Increases & the Tax on
Electricity.
What's next? The Chesapeake Bay View
Tax! (Oh, we already have that one.) How about

a Personal Space Tax? A tax on Breathing?! I'm


not sure we can afford Ms. Kullen anymore.
I find Mark Fisher to be a reasonable, kind,
of good character and a good leader as well. I
believe Calvert County will have a better chance
staying with Mark Fisher, tax wise. My husband
and I are retirees. Mark Fisher wants to eliminate
taxes on retirement income so we can stay in our
homes and enjoy retirement here on the Bay and
not have to move because of the tax burden.
That's important to us and a lot of other Calvert County residents. We are both voting for
Mark Fisher for Delegate in November.

For All Calvert


County Folks
Here is a thought for all independent-minded Calvert County
voters. Lets forget any party affiliation or labels for a moment and
think about what is best for our county. Let's do some political calculus. In November, 2014, we will again vote for who will be our
delegate to Annapolis. The campaign is afoot.
In a comparison of Sue Kullen and the current delegate, which
one has a proven track record of getting things done for our county
in Annapolis? Look at Sue Kullens record from 4 years ago. Ms.
Kullen was able to get legislation passed and gain additional funding for our county. Look at her opponent who had zero pieces of
significant legislation passed during his term. Ms. Kullen would
sit at the table with the dominant legislative leaders. Her opponent
does not and never will.
Between the 2 candidates, who was moving up the leadership
ladder into positions that control the flow of legislation in Annapolis? In her term 4 years ago, Sue was voted head of the Women's
Caucus and the word on the street was that she was soon to be
appointed to a committee leadership position if she had not been
defeated by folks who voted straight Republican without really
thinking about what was best for our county, voting based on anger
directed at a national political figure. What influential leadership
position is the current Republican delegate in line for. None is the
answer.
For the last 70 years, little old Calvert County has been blessed
with powerful representatives in Annapolis, first Mr. Louis Goldstein and now Sen. Mike Miller. Who is more likely to replace Mr.
Miller as a respected and influential member of the dominant political party and thus be able to best look out for our county? The
answer is clear and easy - Sue Kullen. You may not like the way it
works but it is what it is. Plus, Ms. Kullen is a true public servant
who sees government service as a worthy aspiration for the right
reasons.
I know that a certain percentage of the New Republicans only
care about certain issues and will only vote for a candidate who
parrots what Tea Party faithful want to hear. Other Republicanleaning voters may miss their Republican political figures such as
Reagan and the Bushes but I believe these Reagan Republicans will
be smart enough in this next election to vote for the right candidate
for the long term benefit of our county - Sue Kullen. Put Party aside
and vote Calvert First.
One final piece of calculus - Southern Calvert County may
well continue to vote Republican, the overwhelmingly minority
state party. So, if both Calvert County delegates are from the minority party, and our one majority representative will be our state
senator, currently Sen. Miller who will eventually retire, who will
replace him?
Remember, more voters in his district are from counties other
than Calvert? It will most likely be a candidate from one of those
counties who will not really need to pay as much attention to us. So,
you swing voters, if you vote for the current Republican delegate
in 2014, where does that leave us in 2018? There is an old country
saying about being the last calf to feed at a mother cow - that is
what Calvert County will be doing. We need at least one of our state
representatives to have real influence.
For me, this calculus is not necessary. Knowing Sue is to know
she is the type of independent, hard-working, caring public servant
that I want representing my county for many years to come. For
you independent and Calvert First voters, do the math, vote for Sue
Kullen on Tuesday, November 4, 2014.

Fall Festival of Fun

Hours of Operation
Mon-Fri: By Appointment Only
Saturday: 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM
Sunday: 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM

By Emily Charles
Contributing Writer
Many people love
art and the members of
the Craft Guild Shop are
no exceptions.
According to Joyce
Owen, a long time Guild
member, the shop has
been open for about 37
years, though it has only
resided in its location
at 26005 Point Lookout
Road, Leonardtown for
eight years.
Currently, 18 people
make up Craft Guild
Shops co-op, she said.
Because of this, everything from
woodwork to stained glass lines
the shop walls. Some artists even
display their jewelry exclusively at
Craft Guild Shop, like George McWilliams. Craft Guild Shop is the
only store in Southern Maryland
where customers can purchase McWilliams variety of maritime paintings, Owen said.
Craft Guild Shop is always
looking to welcome new customers, and if you havent seen their
vast array of art, the upcoming Craft
Guild Fall Harvest Festival, to be
held at Leonardtown Park, behind
the Port of Leonardtown Winery, is
a great place to begin! Starting Saturday, Oct. 11 at 11 a.m., the event
will include a series of crafters not
limited to those in the Guild, Owen
stated. In addition, it will be filled
with family fun! This years harvest
festival includes scarecrow makingThere will be pumpkin painting for the kids. There will be barrel
infused cigars there, I know thats
something that the Winery had contacted someone about. Chef Dan from
Morris Point Restaurant will be there
with food for everyone, said Owen. Baked
goods will also be featured and a tour of the
Winery may also be taken, according to Guild
member Sandy Web.
The event is free of admission, and attendees can enjoy themselves to the sound of live
music.
Its free admission, free parking, its very
accessible, Owen said, There will be two
bands playing. The OM Band will be playing
from 1 to 4 p.m. and Groove Span will be performing from 4 to 7 p.m.
A good turn out is expected.
The Winery is always busy on Saturdays,
they always have a full parking lot, theyre always full on Saturdays. With what they have
and with what we draw, we should have a pretty
good sized turn out. We did a show there in
May and it was very well received. It was just
us, just the members of the Guild, and we did
very well, Owen stated.
Owen has been planning these events for
thirty years, she said, and compared the upcoming festival to Leonardtown Squares Fall
Follies.
The Fall Follies that used to be in Leonardtown, on the Square, this is kind of taking the
place of that, she said.
This is the first weve ever done something this big. What theyve done in town, for

Follies, its never been this elaborate, added


Web.
This festival, said Owen, is the kick-off
to the holiday shopping season.
This time is a little different because
we are incorporating the scarecrow making
event for kids. Usually its just people coming out to get an idea for what they planned
or would like to purchase for Christmas gifts,
thats a big thing. Its, more or less, kicking
off the shopping season. If someone sees
something that they like or that theyd like in
a different color than what they see available,
thats the time and place for it, because most
of us do special orders for customers.
This two-day event, which has been
in the making since January, according to
Owen, will run Saturday, Oct. 11 and Sunday, Oct. 12, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day.
If, this weekend, you find yourself in
need of a family event including plenty of
food and plenty of wine, Owen said, check
out the Craft Guild Fall Harvest Festival!

Domestic Violence
Awareness
By Lauren Procopio
Staff Writer
October is the official month for domestic violence awareness and Calvert County is raising awareness
about this growing issue. The Crisis Intervention Center has partnered with the Calvert County Commission
for Women to address this growing problem. Chair for the Calvert County Commission for Women Margaret
Dunkle explained how domestic violence is not only an issue for women, but men as well.
Men are most often the abusers and men need to understand that real men dont hit women, she said.
Last year we had a guy who spoke after being an abuser and came to realize what he did was wrongother
men can play an important role in telling the guy next to him its not okay to hit, abuse, demean or be violent
to the women in your life, she continued.
The Crisis Intervention Center has helped 900 people this year alone and has received at least 10,000
calls. According to Dunkle, it is a high statistic for a county with less than 100,000 people.
Domestic violence is a serious issue that, sadly, affects too many. Last year, Amanda Foster of Lusby
was stabbed to death by her boyfriend, and the State Attorneys Office prosecuted almost 400 cases of domestic violence in Calvert County, Dunkle said.
A lot of people dont know this happens and it can happen to anyoneI think were becoming more
aware and less tolerant for it, but its not a new issue. You cant eliminate something if you dont talk about it,
recent stories help focus the issue and talk about it, Dunkle said.
Dunkle encourages anyone who is a victim of domestic violence to seek help and to talk to someone you
trust.
Theres nothing to be ashamed of if you have been abused, she said.
There will be three events during the month of October for Domestic Violence Awareness. On Saturday
Oct. 18 the Prince Frederick Library will host a panel discussion, In Your Own Voice, from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.
for survivors of domestic violence. On Monday Oct. 27th at 7 p.m. there will be a candle light vigil, which will
start in the courtyard of the Calvert County Circuit Court. A community forum, Real Men Talk will be held
Oct. 30 at 7 p.m. at the Prince Frederick Library and this is event is strictly for men. If you or someone you
know is a victim of domestic violence call 410-535-1121 or301-855-1075.

Parks and Recreation


Held Meeting on New
Park in Dunkirk
By Lauren Procopio
Staff Writer
The Calvert County Parks and Recreation held their Master Plan meeting Thursday Oct. 2 at 7 p.m. at the
Northeast Community Center in Chesapeake Beach. The meeting updated residents on the plan for the park,
which will be located on Ward Road in Dunkirk.
According to the Press Release from Parks and Recreation, the 209-acre land was purchased with funds
from the Calvert County Youth Recreational Opportunities Fund, which is a state grant administered by the
Department of Natural Resources.
The meeting allowed citizens to comment and give their ideas for the new project; a major concern was
the increase amount of traffic the park will bring. Landscape Architect Charlie Bailey of Mahan Rykiel Associates said at this point in the process they are not looking at traffic problems and a traffic study will occur
further in the future.
Parks and Recreation Division Chief Doug Meadows discussed the steps Parks and Recreation will have
to take before any construction of the park can begin.
Once the commissioners have blessed it then it goes to the planning commissioners who will bless it,
once the planning commissioners bless it that gives us the ability to start looking at development. So theyre
going to approve it as a plan. So theres still a process before we would stick the first shovel in the ground,
Meadows said. The day you decide to do it and have the money in your hand you still got two to three years
until things happen. So were looking at a real long-term, logically stepped progression over time, Meadows
said.
The name for the new park has not been decided and citizens gave their ideas for a new name at the first
public hearing in June. Bailey said suggestions for the name have been related to the culture, environment
and animals of the area. Bailey also said the new park will not have tennis courts, but will have ball fields;
playgrounds; disc-golf course; pave, gravel and natural surface trials; a nature center; picnic facilities; a dog
park; pavilions for an education facility and boardwalks to the water features of the park.
The Master Plan for the park will be presented to the County Commissioners Oct. 21, which will then be
either approved or disapproved.

Disaster-Resilient Homes
Start With Concrete Walls
A home today must be more than just
aesthetically pleasing. The costs of fuel consumption and extreme-storm damage, plus
costs in the way of carbon footprints, are
making all of us insist on far more property
benefits, including superior durability and
resilience from pending disasters.
In that case, open the door to a home
built with concrete reinforced walls, instead
of wood, and see how you will receive greater safety, comfort, investment value, and energy efficiency, says Todd Blyth at Nudura,
a leading name in building technology.
Concrete is a major solution for weather extremes, and for more than a decade now,
the building system using ICFs (insulated
concrete forms) has proven to deliver the
most durable building frame.
The ICF principle is simple, Blyth says.
The walls are constructed with pre-assembled, interlocking units (similar to Lego),
so theyre easily transported to any building site. Each form consists of two panels of
thick foam (expanded polystyrene) connected with a patented web system. Guided by
the architectural design and beauty aspects
you request, the ICFs are stacked, steel reinforced, and filled with concrete until the entire building envelope is complete.
Heres a snapshot of additional building
benefits:
Disaster-resilient: ICF walls withstand
winds of up to 402 kilometers per hour and

give you a fire protection rating as long as


four hours.
Energy efficiency: Premium insulation delivers an energy-efficiency rating as high as R-50 due to the thermal
mass of the concrete (compared to an
average R-20 in wood structures), and
that equates to reducing household energy bills by as much as 70 percent. And
if optional inserts are added to the ICF
forms, this efficiency is improved even
more.
Occupant comfort: Outside cold
can easily travel through the typical
wood-framed wall, causing uneven
temperatures inside your home. However, the monolithic ICF wall eliminates
drafts and cold spots and it is an effective sound barrier, filtering out unwanted noise.
Green living: Concrete is a sustainable material; trees are not needed; the
system uses only recycled polymers and
steel; the building process creates less
waste than traditional methods; and the
occupants use fewer fossil fuels for a
much smaller carbon footprint.
Short- and long-term value: A concrete home is built to last and retain its
value longer. In the short-term, the superior durability of concrete walls require
less maintenance, repair and money to
maintain than wood structures.

Out&About
October, Month Long
Twin Beach Players The Legend of Sleepy
Hollow
Boys and Girls Club (9021 Dayton Ave, North
Beach)
Twin Beach Players presents The Legend of
Sleepy Hollow, an original adaptation by Playwright-in-Residence Mark Scharf. Washington
Irvings popular tale of a haunted forest outside
of Terrytown, N.Y. conceals many ghosts and
spirits but also a Hessian soldier long dead seen
mounted on a raging steed; headless, or so the oft
told yarn goes.
Innocent Ichabod Crain stumbles across the
area hired as a teacher and choirmaster but takes
a fancy for the local lovely, Katrina, infuriating
the local blusterer, Brom, who swears that Katrina is his true love. The small hamlet becomes
a buzz of rumors in celebrating the fall harvest
as the townspeople exploit the bumbling Crane
warning him that his life could be in danger. But
from whom? Is it Brom or the Horseman searching for a new head?
Join us for Halloween fun, weekends from
Oct. 17 to Nov. 2, with a special 9 p.m. show on
Halloween at The Boys & Girls Clubs in North
Beach. Wear a costume and receive a free popcorn. Go to twinbeachplayers.com for more
information.

The Journey of Man
CalvART Gallery, 110 Solomons Island Rd S,
Prince Frederick - 5 to 8 p.m.
Ray and Phyllis present their artistic vision
of our shared history as human beings through
their stunning show, representing various times
in the mass migration of human beings, driven by
difficult climatic and man-made challenges. It is
a large subject, but the Nobles are up to the challenge of representing significant historical events
in their beautiful glass art.
The show will be on display from Oct. 8
through Nov. 2. Please join the artists for their
opening reception on Saturday, Nov.11 from 5 to
8 p.m. Light fare and refreshments will be served.
Ray and Phyllis say, This art show reflects
our vision of the art of people at different times
during their journey. At each migration point,
settlements were formed and art evolved. Natural
selection forces created diversity in their bodies,
their beliefs and their behavior.
The Journey of Man show is about the art
which tracks the migration of man from the Great
Rift Valley in east Africa to all points on the
planet. The migration began 150,000 to 200,000
years ago and was followed by the gradual development of language, religion, civilization and art.
Their journey took place during an era when
the planet was undergoing incredible changes including ice ages, changes in sea level, and unpredictable weather. Disease, predators and war conspired against them and influenced their journey.

Candidate Forums
Greater Mount Zion Church, Route 231 and German Chapel Rd. 4 6 p.m.
The congregations and organizations of Calvert County that comprise TRUST in cooperation
with our partners in the Closing the Gap Coalition, the Calvert County Branch of the NAACP,
the Concerned Black Women of Calvert County,
and the Calvert Collaborative for Children and
Youth will hold forums for candidates for the
Board of Education, to be held 4 to 6 p.m. Oct. 12,
and for candidates for county commissioner, to
be held 4 to 6 p.m. Oct. 26, both at Greater Mount
Zion Church, at the intersection of Route 231 and
German Chapel Road in Barstow.
Representatives of our faith communities
and their allies will prepare presentations from
several specific areas of common concern. There
will be equal time allotted to each candidate to
address each issue and we will rotate the order
for each answer and there will be a period of
time reserved for remarks from each candidate at
the close of the forum. There will be no questions
allowed from the floor.
Members of the press will be invited to attend and we expect to match our 2010 turnout of
over 400 people from our congregations, organizations, our strategic partners and the general
public.
Many issues have divided us, but this is a
historic moment for the County, in which people
of faith and deep concern for the community have
come together across race, place and history to make common cause. We know that you will
want to be part of this exciting and informative
evening as our citizens get to hear firsthand about
the issues that concern them most from those
who will guide the course of Calvert County education over the next four years.
