Local Youth Seeking National Democratic Post

By Dick Myers
Staff Writer
A Calvert County teenager is running for national chair
of a young Democrats organization. Chad Leo says that
over the past ve years I have been a politically active
youth advocate, ghting for my country to make our fu-
ture a better and more stable place. I was born and raised
in Calvert County, and am a rising Junior at Patuxent
High School. I currently serve as Vice President of the
Calvert Association of Student Councils, and CEO of a
startup named Millennials for Ofce, constantly ght-
ing to make the student Democratic voice heard loud and
clear.
He is running for National Chair of the Young Demo-
crats of America High School Caucus (YDAHSC). The
Calvert County Democrats wrote in an email blast about
Leo candidacy: YDAHSC is the national high school
caucus of the Young Democrats of America, an organi-
zation that allows the youth to have a voice inside of the
DNC and the DNC Executive Council.
Leo said, Our organization gives real power to this
countrys youth, allowing them not only to be the lead-
ers of tomorrow, but to be the leaders of today. The high
school caucus is important in particular because it in-
cludes a younger generation and raises the student voice,
broadening the base of the party and its local lobbying
power.
Leo explained, I am running to make a change and
help rebuild our party. Over the past few years, the
Democratic Party has failed young people. They disre-
garded our voice, only asking for our vote. I am running
to change the partys attitude towards my generation and
I am running to advocate, represent, and ght for my
peers at the national level. In order to further our orga-
nization, my running mate, Tamir Harper, and I plan to
add regional directors, create a diverse national team,
I am running to change the partys
attitude towards my generation and
I am running to advocate, represent,
and ght for my peers at the national
level.
-Chad Leo
secure crucial funding, and maintain an active presence
at national events. We hope to raise the prole of YD-
AHSC and create a strong presence of young Demo-
crats across the country.
Leo is looking for nancial help for his candidacy.
He said, I am currently trying to raise funds to attend
the YDA National Convention in Dallas, Texas from
August 9-12. Send a Marylander to ght for Marylands
needs. I also need to turn out the vote with the high
schoolers: any high school democrat is eligible to vote
online from July 24 - August 7. Please send all sup-
port to 13448 Stowaway Court, Solomons, MD 20688
or on GoFund me and email me: chdleo0@gmail.com
with any questions. Lets show Dallas and the rest of
the country what Calvert County is made out of! Thank
you for your support.

Should Calvert Be
Suburban Residential?
By Dick Myers
Staff Writer
Do suburban and Calvert County
belong in the same sentence? The staff
of the Department of Planning and Zon-
ing dont think so. Calvert people tend to
think of themselves as rural, and subur-
ban is closer to the Beltway, Long-Range
Planner Jenny Plummer-Welker suggested
to the planning commission at its July
19 meeting.
The consultant working on the update of
the countys Comprehensive Plan had pro-
posed calling the residential ring around
town centers suburban residential.
Plummer-Welker suggested to change that
to just residential.
The commission went along with the
idea, although everything is tentative at
this stage in the update process.
Plummer-Welker also wanted to know
the commissions thinking on the size of
the proposed Huntingtown village, which
is now designated a town center in the cur-
rent plan. At a previous work session, the
planners had agreed to expand the area to
include Huntingtown High School on the
opposite side on the road. That would help
snag state dollars for any future renova-
tion or expansion.
Plummer-Welker brought up the is-
sue again to make sure everyone was on
board. Member Richard Holler said it
would make more sense to include exist-
ing commercial, such as the nursery and
an ofce building on the corner of Routes
2/4 and Cox Road.
Commission Chairperson Carolyn
McHugh allowed members of the audi-
ence to speak and three from Hunting-
town did so. There was support from the
Bowen's Grocery
residents to keep the size of the village the
same as the current town center and add-
ing just the high school.

Brownlee Retires After 29
Years with the County
By Dick Myers
Staff Writer
Calvert County Chief Environmental
Planner Dr. David Brownlee is retiring after
29 years with the county. Brownlee was hon-
ored by the Calvert County Board of County
Commissioners at their July 25 meeting.
In a proclamation read during the ceremo-
ny, it was noted; Daves admirable career
began on November 1, 1988, as an Associ-
ate Planner for the Department of Planning
and Zoning, which, at that time, did not have
an environmental planner. He was promoted
to Principal Planner in 1995, where he re-
mained until his retirement. Having weath-
ered eight Board of County Commissioner
elections, three County Administrators, five
Planning Directors, and numerous Depart-
ment reorganizations, including two depart-
ment name changes.
The proclamation goes on to say: Over
the years, Dave has been involved in al-
most every aspect of the Departments en-
vironmental planning duties, including the
development of critical area regulations
and maps, creation of watershed improve-
ment plans, management of hazard mitiga-
tion grants to move homes from the eroding
cliffs and to elevate those in the floodplain,
four amendments to the Countys Compre-
hensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance, as well
as development of Flood Mitigation Plans
for our flood-prone communities; and since
the adoption of Critical Area Regulations.
Dave has prepared hundreds of staff re-

ports and recommendations related to criti-
cal area projects, served as staff support to
the Environmental Commission since its
inception and on local and State boards of
other organizations; including the Patuxent
River Commission; and throughout his ca-
reer with the County, Dave has been known
for his professionalism, integrity, and fair-
minded implementation of the Countys
zoning regulations.
However, those who work with Dave
know he is a birthday party guy, having
a talent for baking delicious birthday cakes
slicing and serving. He also enjoys en-
tertaining each Halloween, dressing up in
unique and interesting costumes.
Environmental Planner Steve Kullen,
who has served alongside Dr. Brownlee for
ten years, said, He is more than a planner,
he is a scientist too. Kullen said the data
assembled by Dr. Brownlee will help the
county do a better job going forward.
Brownlee thanked the county for giving
him an opportunity of doing a job in which
he could share his own values of serving
the public and the environment.
He brought to the county something it
didnt have, said Director of Planning and
Zoning Mark Willis about Brownlees work
in environmental planning.
Commissioner Pa Nutter, who worked
alongside Brownlee when he was a zoning
inspector, noted that working in such a posi-
tion isnt the easiest job in the world.

Robertson-Slagle Appointed
Economic Development Director
The Calvert
County Board of
County Commis-
sioners (BOCC)
is pleased to an-
nounce the ap-
pointment of
Kelly Robertson-
Slagle as the
countys director
of economic de-
velopment. The
Kelly Robertson-Slagle appointment is
an important part
of the reorganization plan the board ap-
proved April 25 to improve overall county
government operations and services to the
public. Slagles appointment is effective
July 24, 2017.
Slagle, who was most recently the busi-
ness retention specialist in the Calvert
County Department of Economic Devel-
opment (DED), has worked for Calvert
County Government for approximately
10 years of combined service. Slagle re-
places long-time director Linda Vassallo
who was appointed director of communi-
cations and media relations as part of the
countys recent reorganization.
Hired as the countys rst business re-
tention specialist in 2005, Slagle quickly
established the countys rst full-time,
intensive business retention and expan-
sion program. Prior to joining the DED,
Slagle served as director of the Mary-
land Small Business Development Center
where she provided leadership in plan-
ning, coordinating and overseeing the
development, delivery and reporting of all
professional programs, activities and ser-
vices for the Southern Maryland region.
She also served as business development
manager for the Calvert County Depart-
ment of Economic Development, director
of government/member relations with the
Tri-County Council for Southern Mary-
land and business development specialist
with the former Maryland Department
of Business & Economic Development,
now Maryland Department of Commerce,
where she worked directly with local ju-
risdictions on business retention and ex-
pansion projects.
Kellys strong relationship with the
existing business community, depth of
knowledge as an economic development
practitioner and proven dedication to ser-
vice make her an excellent choice, said
BOCC President Tom Hejl. Her experi-
ence, and the fact that she possesses work-

Latham, Pilkerton Lead Youth Movement at Potomac

By Doug Watson
Potomac Speedway
During my near three decade tenure at
Southern Marylands Potomac Speedway,
I have witnessed many drivers cut their
racing teeth and the tricky three-eights
mile oval.The likes of Jamie Lathroum,
David Williams and Kenny Moreland, just
to name a few, all have done quite well at
Potomac and were also able to reach star-
dom at other venues as their careers pro-
gressed. Entering the 2017 season Ive had
my eye on two young drivers, who both
moved up a class, and reached success in
their respective new adventures, Jeremy
Pilkerton and Mikey Latham.
Both of these second-generation wheel-
men both got their start in Potomacs entry
level U-Car class and were quite produc-
tive during their tenure with the class. Jer-
emy Pilkerton is the son of Jeff Pilkerton, a
name synonymous to Potomac Speedway.
The elder Pilkerton was a 4-time cham-
pion in the tracks old Semi-Late class and
was also the tracks Late Model champion
in 1999. Jeff has scored 50-career Potomac
feature wins and still currently competes
in the Crate Late Modelclass.
Mikeys father, Mike Latham, was last
years Street Stock champion and has col-
lected 51 feature wins in the class, with
three of those victories coming this sea-
son. After four feature wins and a runner
up in the U-Car points in 2015 Jeremy
Pilkerton moved up to the Street Stock
ranks in 2016. Even though he was unable
to win a feature, his consistency rewarded
him with a second-place finish in the final
point tally.
His season would be quite different as
Jeremy scored his first win in the faster
class in April and would add two more
with five races remaining for the class this
season. I came into this season having
something to prove. Said Pilkerton. This
season has been far greater than I ever ex-
pected and I cannot believe I am running
competitively week in and week out with
the likes of Mike Latham, Kyle Nelson
and Ed Pope Jr. Jeremy has quite a coach
in his corner as his father Jeff is there ev-
ery step of the way. I cant say enough
about my dad. Jeremy bottom lined. He
has taught me absolutely everything about
racing from working on the cars and the
importance of sportsmanship. Without
him I wouldnt be the driver or young man
I am today.
Mikey Latham stayed with the U-Car
class for one final season in 2016. Mikey
would rack up 7 feature wins and leave
the class as the all-time winner with 18
victories. In arguably Potomacs most
competitive class, the Hobby Stocks, is
where the younger Latham would start the
new season. In just his 7th ever start with
the faster class, Mikey parked the family
owned no.78 in victory lane. Proving the
win was no fluke, Mikey scored again this
past weekend in a dramatic last lap win
over former class champion Jonathan Ral-
ey, proving that he is no longer a rookie.
I feel that this season is the best out-
come it could be for being in a new car.
Mikey stated. Im glad to finally be in a
rear wheel drive car because thats what
most cars out there are and It feels good
to drive something different. Proud fa-
ther Mike Lathams advice and support
have been invaluable in Mikeys learning
curve.My father taught me that some-
times when youre leading a race its bet-
ter to be smooth than fast, and thats how
I won my first Hobby Stock race. Said
Mikey. I know for a fact that I wouldnt be
successful if it werent for my dad teach-
ing me everything I know about racing.
The 30-lap Late Model feature at a little
over 8 minutes and the 20-lap Crate Late
Model feature, which was run in just un-
der 6 minutes, both established track re-
cords in each division. After engine trou-
ble hampered his debut at Winchester the
week prior, Jamie Lathroum took the pow-
er plant out of his MasterSbilt no.6 and
utilized it in his Sommey Lacey owned
Rocket XR-1 no.45 and would produce
a 5th in the Late Model main. After suf-
fering an arm injury earlier in the season,
former Crate Late Model champion John
Imler, made his return to competition
where he would steer his BRC Lazer no.63
to a 12th in the divisions main. Logan
Robersons Crate Late Model win was the
8th of his Potomac career, one win shy of
the all-time mark of 9 held by Darin Hen-
derson. Sam Archer (1st & 3rd), Dave Ad-
ams (4th & 5th) and Jonathan Raley (2nd
twice) were the three drivers to score top
fives in both Hobby Stock events.
Defending track champion Sam Archer
holds a healthy 152 point lead over Buddy
Dunagan in the season standings with
just 5 point races remaining on the sched-
ule. This was just the 8th of 15 scheduled
shows this season at Potomac, as rain has
taken the other seven. Pennsylvania native
Michelle Walls made her first ever Po-
tomac start on Friday. Competing with the
Street Stocks, Walls acclimated quickly to
the racy Potomac surface and would steer
her no.1 to a 4th in the divisions 16-lap
feature.

 8 Sports
Their #2 v. Our #2
The careers
of Cleveland
guard Kyrie
Irving and
Wa s h i n g t o n
guard John
Wall will
be forever
linked. Fair
or unfair,
thats just how
it is. The points of intersection are too
great; the comparison is too juicy to
ignore.
Both players attended blueblood in-
stitutions Wall chose Kentucky, Ir-
ving went to Duke and left for the
NBA after just one season. Both were
number one overall picks in the NBA
Draft - Wall (2010) and Irving (2011)
- and have inked lucrative contract
extensions. Both players have been
four-time All-Stars. Both players are
among the best point guards in the
world. Ohand both wear number 2.
Similar? Yes. Identical? No. The
differences
While Wall and Irving are both
point guards, their styles are unique.
Wall is a traditional point guard (a re-
grettably negative description in this
great jump shot era). He orchestrates
offense through masterful ball distri-
bution. Wall can score as required,
but he thinks pass first. His court vi-
sion is arguably the best; he inargu-
ably makes his teammates better (and
a whole lot richer: see Bradley Beal
and Otto Porter).
Irving has a little Allen Iverson in
him. Hes a better pure shooter than
Iverson, but his offensive mentality is
identical: score. Pass? Well, sure
but only as necessary.
Walls and Irvings impressive indi-
vidual career statistics illustrate this
contrast. Walls averaged 18.8 points
and 9.2 assists per game; Irvings
countered with 21.6 points and 5.5 as-
sists per game.
Pick your style. Toe-may-toe; Toe-
mah-toe. A finely crafted IPA or a
porter. The Beatles or the Rolling
Stones. Splendid either way.
But theres a non-basketball differ-
ence between these two and it sur-
faced on the same day last week: Ir-
ving has a little drama in himWall
not so much.
In his first three seasons, Irvings
Cavs won 21, 24 and 33 games. In the
last three, Clevelands recorded 53, 57
and 51 wins, appeared in three NBA
Finals and won a NBA championship.
The change coincided with LeB-
ron Jamess return to Cleveland. Yet
The Calvert County Times
despite the success realized from the
James partnership, Irving requested
that the Cavs trade him last week.
Why? Irving is fatigued by being
Robin to Jamess Batman and desires
a new team where he can play alpha-
dog and receive the credit he feels hes
deserved. Never mind that James, at
age 32, is likely in decline and may
leave Cleveland after this season
all things that would offer Irving the
leading role he covetsin Cleveland.
And the timing after the draft, after
free agency was just awful. It drips
of impulsiveness and is saturated with
self-interest.
In other words, Irving threw the lat-
est NBA version of a two-year-old fit.
Conversely, just hours after Irvings
trade request made headlines, Wall
signed a four-year extension with the
Wizards. Wall is staying put and try-
ing to build something that Wash-
ington hasnt had since 1978: a NBA
champion. Hes pursuing his career-
defining ring and writing his legacy
organically: no team hopping, no trade
demands, no drama. Instead of shun-
ning Washington because of all it isnt,
Wall is committed to elevating D.C.
- a post-disco era third-world NBA
town - to basketballs pinnacle. And
Walls making that commitment in his
typical all-business, no bull---- style:
Its as if Walls never seen a daytime
soap, is unfamiliar with Susan Lucci
and is disgusted by hysterical, tearless
faux-cries.
Considering recent team history,
Wall, not Irving, should be seeking
professional asylum from his current
employer. But thats not Walls style.
Putting the money aside (its so in-
evitably crazy for NBA stars that its
irrelevant), Walls decision to remain fore the Blue Crabs added two more runs,
with Washington a team that needs
him more than he needs it - indicates
that our #2 values being synonymous
with one team and one city and endear-
ing himself to one fan base. In other
words, Wall doesnt just value fame,
advancing his brand and chasing
titles, he values something thats all
but lost in major sports today: loyalty.
So while Cleveland deals with chaos
in the wake of Irvings drama-bomb,
consider, and appreciate, the calm sur-
rounding the Wizards. Consider and
appreciate John Wall, a man who has
determined that the greenest grass
grows beneath his feet.

Blue Crabs Rally Late to Split Series
The Southern Maryland Blue Crabs (8-8)
were victorious in the series finale against
the Bridgeport Bluefish (10-7) 9-4, rallying
in the ninth to win the game.
Southern Maryland fell behind early in
the matchup, as they looked to win the game
and finish the series with a split. Gaby Her-
nandez allowed a lead-off single to DArby
Myers, who stole second and advanced to
third on a flyball. Myers came in from third
on a groundout from Jose Cuevas, opening
the scoring on theafternoon.
The Blue Crabs were able to respond
with a run of their own in the third on a solo
homerun from Edwin Garcia. Both teams
were scoreless for the next two innings, be-
in right field emptied promptly emptied the
taking their first lead of the day off Mike
Aquilino. Garcia walked to start the inning,
advancing to scoring position on a one-out
single from Michael Snyder. Cory Vaughn
followed with a single, scoring Garcia from
second to take the lead. After a walk to L.J.
Hoes, Aquilino was lifted from the game
with the bases loaded and one out. Frank
Dejiulio Jr. took over, immediately allowing
a sacrifice fly, scoring Snyder and putting
the Blue Crabs ahead 3-1.
Hernandez continued strong on the
mound, allowing just four hits through his
first seven innings of work. He finally ran
into trouble in the eighth, sacrificing the lead
in the inning. Sean Burroughs started the in-
ning with a single, before an error at third
put two men aboard. Two batters later, a
hit-by-pitch loaded the bases with one out in
the inning. A strikeout picked up out num-
ber two, before Hernandez walked Daniel
Fields, cutting the lead to just one run. Jose

scoring two runs and putting Bridgeport
ahead 4-3. Zack Thornton (1-1) was then
brought in from the bullpen, picking Fields
off of second to finally end the inning.
The Bluefish turned their new one-run
advantage to their closer Elvin Ramirez.
Ramirez picked up two quick outs, be-
fore everything fell apart in the inning for
Bridgeport. A single from Zach Cone start-
ed the rally, before Garcia doubled him in,
tying the game. Zach Wilson followed with
a single, scoring Garcia to retake the lead.

Steve Weems
Moderate Commissioner with a Full Plate
By Dick Myers
Staff Writer
At the end of the day I am just a coun-
try boy, said Steve Weems in a July 24
interview with the County Times. That
country boy has a lot on his plate: Cal-
vert County Commissioner, chairman
of the Tri-County Council for Southern
Maryland, member of Comptroller Peter
Franchots Reform on Tap Task Force
Committee, business owner, husband,
father and son. Although Weems is of-
ten in the middle of potentially conten-
tious situations in his public life, he ex-
udes a calmness and cordiality that can
be disarming in this world of political
divisiveness.
Weems in describing himself as a
country boy was responding to a ques-
tion about whether he wasnt more like
the old-fashioned Southern-gentleman
politician. Weems agreed with the prem-
ise of the question: We really are an
acrimonious society with social media.
He said his attitude towards everyone
was forged from his family and working
in his family business. From his father,
he learned the need to treat his custom-
The Calvert County Times Thursday, July 27, 2017
ers courteously and fairly. In further
explanation, he quoted the Golden Rule
from the Bible Do onto others as you
would have others do onto you.
Part of Weems public persona may
come from being a political moderate.
The man chosen as this years Calvert
County Republican Man of the Year
hasnt always been a Republican. He
pointed out the historic fact that South-
ern Maryland used to be by and large a
conservative Southern Democratic area.
He switched at about the time that Presi-
dent George W. Bush came along (as did
many others in a county that now has a
GOP majority).
But regardless of party, Weems sad
he comes from the center of the politi-
cal spectrum fiscally conservative
and socially moderate. He likens his
philosophy to that of Marylands GOP
Governor Larry Hogan.
Weems, 46, is the proprietor of We-
myss Liquors in St. Leonard along with
his father Ronnie and several other fam-
ily members. The store is in part of a
building that started in 1946 as a gas
station. The building has been added Inside Wemyss Liquors store.
onto twice. In the beginning liquor

sales were an afterthought; now its the
mainbusiness.
When that gas station was built, St.
Leonard had three or four grocery stores
and four gas stations, the main road south
came right through town, and the county
had 14,000 people. The dualization that
bypassed St. Leonard and a changing gas
station business environment led to the
close of that part of the business in 1984.
The store is now filled with many va-
rieties of wines and craft beers. Weems
said it prebaby should be expanded again
to accommodate customer tastes for va-
riety in a county that now has 90,000
people.
Weems started working at the store
when he was seven. He attended Our
Lady Star of the Sea and St. Marys
Ryken before graduating from Calvert
High School. He graduated from Frost-
burg University with a major in history
and a minor in business. He also took
courses in Golf Course Management
at the University of Maryland, but left
when he was needed at the liquor store.
Weems worked two summers at Ches-
apeake Hills Golf Course, now owned by
the county. Those courses at the Univer-
sity of Maryland and his experience have
been helpful in the commissioners over-
sight of the golf course, he said.
Weems was inspired by a close friend
who passed away just a month before
the filing deadline for county commis-
sioner in 2010. Even though his friend
was about the same age as he was (39),
he passed away. That was a shock and a
lesson that waiting to do something can
sometimes be too late. Weems won an at
large seat in 2010 and was reelected in
2014.
Weems decision to run initially was
also influenced by former commissioner
Pat Buehler, whose family owns a store
on the opposite side of St. Leonard Road
from Wemyss Liquors. Buehler is a rela-
tive of Weems. At the commissioners
July 25 meeting, Weems noted Buehlers
(and fellow Commissioner Pat Nutters)
birthdays and called Buehler his mentor.
The mild-mannered commissioner
hasnt shied away from responsibility
and the limelight. Having served before
as chairman of the Tri-County Council,
he agreed to serve again this year when
Calverts turn in the rotation came up.
He has found himself in the middle of a
hurricane, with Charles County pulling
most of its funding from the agency.
I believe it does far more good than is
recognized, Weems said of the regional
council that has been in existence since
the late 1960s. He said how it survives
the crisis will be determined in the next
year. If change is necessary sometimes
thats just part of life, he said.
Weems also was the sole commission-
er this year to vote against the budget,
The Calvert County Times Feature 11
having pressed for a property tax rate
decrease. He said he has received a lot
of comment, both positive and negative,
about it.
Weems said he was surprised about
the reaction to his budget decision. Some
of those he thought were his supporters
criticized the decision and some who he
thought werent usually with him went
along with him this time.
Weems is one of several retail liquor
store owners on Comptroller Peter Fran-
chots Reform on Tap Task Force (Cal-
vert County liquor board member Beth
Swoap is also a member). He said he be-
lieves fears of some in the industry that Decorations inside Wemyss Liquor store.

distributor and retailer will be disman-
tled are unfounded. He said as a retailer
he depends heavily on the distributors to
maintain the flow of products he needs METABOLIC TRAINING TO INCREASE METABOLISM & BURN FAT MORE EFFICIENTLY!
to succeed.
Earlier this year he was named Calvert
County Republican Man of the Year, a
surprise and an honor for him. He said
he had a hint that something was going
on when his mother attended with him,
a type of event she normally wouldnt
goto.
In accepting the award, he called up

his mother and former commissioner
Susan Shaw to sing to them, a reminder CHALLENGE
to everyone of another talent he is well-
known for. Occasionally he breaks out in
song at commissioner meetings.

lowed him to sharpen his singing talents.
He also was a big fan of the Gong Show
on TV. He knew the show came from
Hollywood, but thought it was Maryland
instead of California. He hoped to cross
the river to appear on theshow.
With the election coming up next year,
Weems recently told a meeting of Re-
publican women that he had yet to de-
cide on running for a third term. He said
his business and his fathers health and
the rest of his family, including his wife
Jamie Rouder (a teacher at Huntingtown
High School) and children, Taylor (16)
and Kade (8) are all to be considered in
making the decision.
In keeping with his style, he then
thanked the people of Calvert for put-
ting hint a position to serve them. He
said the thing he most liked about being
a commissioner was being in a position
to helppeople.

tion, just staying humble and knowing

Pets of the Week
PETER, PAUL & MARY
Peter was adopted but Paul and
Mary are still looking for their home.
They are fully vetted and cost $125
each. They are incredibly friendly.
They were trapped behind Olive
Garden when they were tiny babies
and have been socialized and domes-
ticated. They routinely crawl in their
foster moms lap to snooze and to be
petted. They both have instant purr
motors. They love to play.
Paul and Mary are very well adjust-
ed and friendly kittens.
The Calvert County Times
Please spay and neuter and help stop
the overpopulation of cats.
The shelter is forced to euthanize 185
cats per month due to overpopulation.
If you are feeding cats, please con-
tact Feral Cat Rescue to borrow traps
at diane@feralcatrescuemd.org
You can meet Paul and Mary at the
Petco in California this weekend on

Library to Host Documentary Film
In a community partnership project,
Calvert Library Prince Frederick is host-
ing a showing and discussion of the Ava
DuVernays documentary about race,
justice and mass incarceration, 13th. The
main event is Thursday, August 24 with
the movie starting at 5:30pm and the dis-
cussion scheduled to begin at 7:15 p.m.
For those whom 5:30pm on a weeknight
is too early, the library will also show the
lm at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, August 19
with the anticipation that those viewers
will be able to attend the discussion at 7:15
p.m. on August 24.
The lm itself is a critically-acclaimed
and thought-provoking lm and won
the Peabody award and BAFTA for Best
Documentary in 2016. The discussion
promises to be rich and provocative.

Help Reduce Animal Overpopulation
Companion animal overpopulation is
a problem that continues to tax the re-
sources of communities throughout North
America. Each year, millions of animals
are euthanized in animal shelters because
there are simply not enough people to
adopt them.
One of the easiest ways to prevent pet
overpopulation is to spay and neuter ani-
mals. Cats can reproduce at very fast rates.
According to the Cat Rescue, Adoption &
Foster Team of Central Oregon, two un-
controlled breeding cats can create the fol-
lowing situation if they have two litters a
year at a survival rate of 2.8 kittens per
litter: 12 cats in the rst year, 66 cats in
the second year, and 2,201 cats in the third
year. Cats reach puberty between 4 and 12
months of age. Female cats reproduce be-
tween January and September, and might
come back into "heat" every 14 to 21 days
until they have bred or daylight decreases
considerably. Cats can give birth 60 days

Excellence.
Calvert Library summer student intern
and Calvert High School rising junior,
LeAndre Campbell has helped collect
questions to think about prior to seeing the
lm, as well as questions to kick the dis-
cussion off afterwards. When asked about
his interest he said, I saw this documen-
tary on Netix and I think its an impor-
tant topic to discuss. Im so glad to have
the opportunity to get the community to-
gether to talk and Im working on getting
other teens to the library for the event.
Michael Kent with the NAACP will
talk about what is happening on the local
level around this issue of mass incarcera-
tion. A representative of the Legislative
Black Caucus of Maryland will talk about
related legislation at the state level. Oth-
ers involved in the legal and penal system
will be available to answer questions and
provide information from their own expe-
rience. Content of the lm is intense and
parental guidance is encouraged.
For more information, call Robyn Trus-
low at 410-535-0291.
From Calvert Library
after they have bred.
With regard to when to spay or neuter
animals, experts advise taking a "the ear-
lier the better" approach. The North Shore
Animal League America's SpayUSA says
that, for many years, veterinarians were
taught that cats and dogs had to be one
year old to be spayed or neutered. But it
is now known that kittens and pups can
be spayed or neutered at the age of two
months (or two pounds). The American
Veterinary Medical Association has en-
dorsed this practice, which is referred to
as "early age neutering." When spayed
or neutered early, animals recover more
quickly from surgery than they would if
spayed or neutered later in life.
The Canadian Federation of Humane
Societies offers that spaying or neutering
is the responsibility of all pet owners. But
for some owners, the cost of spaying or
neutering can be a deterrent. Several mu-
nicipalities, humane societies and SPCAs
now offer low-cost spay/neuter
programs or clinics to address
this issue. One such organiza-
tion is the Beat the Heat Alli-
ance, Inc., which offers spay/
neuter access, assistance and
education in northeastern Ten-
nessee. The group also spon-
sors the Beat the Heat annual
event.
By controlling the rate of re-
production, communities can
help alleviate the strain that is
posed by pet overpopulation
