Teen Sex Ed Class On
Again At Library
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
A controversial sex education class
aimed at answering questions from teens
appears to be coming back to the Lexing-
ton Park Library next month, though it
will not be sponsored by the library.
A group known as the Southern Mary-
land Area Secular Humanists (SMASH),
has started a crowd funding web page to
bring sex educator Bianca Palmisano in
for the seminar according to their gofund-
me.com web site.
Samantha McGuire, a Leonardtown
resident, who represents the local human-
ist chapter and is president of the Wash-
ington Area Secular Humanists, said the
class will be sponsored by her group and
will be open to high school-aged teens.
She said if there were demand for a sex
education class for younger people in the
future her organization would consider
sponsoring that as well.
We will require parental permission,
McGuire said. There will be inclusivity
and a space for teens to ask questions they
otherwise might be embarrassed to ask
their parents.
The event will be open to the public,
McGuire said, but parents of teens attend-
ing will not be allowed to observe.
Parents are not allowed in, McGuire
said. This is a teen only workshop.
The parents who provide consent will
understand that format.
Attendees will be able to pose their
questions by writing them down and
Palmisano will choose which ones to an-
swer, according to McGuire, and discard
those she considered inappropriate given
the age group.
Im trusting her judgment as a profes-
sional, said McGuire.
Karen Sauter, a parent and Hollywood
resident who opposed the class being at
the library, objected to the idea of exclud-
ing parents from a supposed public place.
She also expected opposition to the class
to return despite any such restrictions.
Seeing the people who turned out at
the public hearing, it wouldnt surprise
me, Sauter said. Id expect it. egory will be redirected towards a more
Michael Blackwell, library system di-
rector, said that since a non-prot had re-
quested the use of a meeting room, rather
than the library putting on the program,
it was library system policy to allow
the class.
The library also welcomes use of its
meeting rooms by individuals, organiza-
tions, and businesses who agree to ob-
serve the rules and whose activities will
not adversely affect the library opera-
tions. There is no fee for non-prot orga-
nizations and government agencies. There
is a fee for use by for-prot businesses
and private parties, the librarys policy
reads.Meeting rooms are available on a
rst come, rst serve basis, regardless of
the beliefs and afliations of their mem-
bers. Granting of permission to use li-
brary facilities does not constitute an en-
dorsement of the users or their beliefs.

Liquor License Bills For Salons,
Art Galleries Now Law
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
Amid local opposition from the Alcohol
Beverage Board and the licensed beverage
association two bills that allow hair salons
and art galleries to apply for license to sell
alcohol to their patrons in St. Marys Coun-
ty passed the legislature this year.
Del. Deb Rey (R-Dist. 29B), one of the
key supporters of the bills, said it would
help boost business for galleries and salons
but it was customers who wanted the option
who would benefit as well.
Im thrilled [they] passed, Rey said
of the bills. Members of our community
wanted this.
We listened to those who were against
it and we definitely took into consideration
what they said.
Theodore Bellavoine, chair of the coun-
tys alcohol beverage board, wrote in a
missive to Del. Dereck Davis, chair of the
Economic Matters Committee expressing
the boards opposition to HB 526 and HB
538 over concerns of alcohol proliferation
back in February.
Opening a license to the beauty salons
alone has the potential to increase the num-
ber of alcoholic beverage licenses in St.
Mary County by 40 to 50 percent, Bel-
lavoine wrote. The definition of what an
Art Establishment is, is so broad, it is hard
to determine the percentage of increase.
Beauty salon licensing had been pro-
posed to the beverage board in years past

and had been rejected based on concerns
that allowing such licensing would open
the door to other non-alcohol based indus-
tries and flooding St. Marys County with
alcohol availability, the same letter stated.
This was a direct affront to the con-
struction of the Alcohol Beverage Article,
which is to foster and promote temper-
ance, Bellavoine wrote.
But there was also significant support
for the measure, with officials from Leon-
ardtown testifying in support of it and
all but one of the Commissioners of St.
Marys County voicing their approval of
the concept.
Establishments must still go before the
local alcohol board to get the license and
pay a $300 fee a year to keep it.
Establishments will also be allowed to
serve only up to 24 ounces of beer and 10
ounces of wine per customer at a sitting,
Rey said.
Included in the bill was the requirement
that employees at galleries and salons re-
ceive responsible alcohol service training
(RAST) from the beverage board, to en-
sure they comply with all regulations.
We put that specifically in the bill, Rey
said Wednesday. We definitely wanted
them to have that training.

CSM to Dedicate First Building
on Hughesville Campus
Southern Maryland elected officials
and business and community leaders will
join the College of Southern Maryland in
dedicating the new Center for Trades and

Regional Hughesville Campus at 2:30
p.m. on April 25.
The 30,000-square-foot building, the
first completed on the new campus, in-
cludes labs, classrooms and administra-
tive space and provides residents through-
out the region easier access to specialized
training in career fields that have sub-
stantial growth potential. The CT Build-
ing houses trades training for the college
HVAC, plumbing, electrical, welding
and carpentry as well as the Mary-

Comptroller Franchot Announces
Formation of Task Force to Examine
Marylands Alcohol Laws
Comptroller Peter Franchot announced
April 11 the creation of a statewide task
force that will conduct a comprehensive
review of the outdated laws governing
Marylands alcohol industry.
The announcement of the Reform On
Tap task force comes just hours after the
conclusion of the Maryland General As-
sembly session that saw passage of legisla-
tion (House Bill 1283), which will severely
restrict growth of the states thriving craft
beer industry.
The events of the 2017 legislative ses-
sion are further confirmation that Mary-
lands beer laws are antiquated, dysfunc-
tional, anti-small business and anti-con-
sumer, said Comptroller Franchot, who
made the announcement during a visit to
Attaboy Beer, which opened in January as
one of the newest entrants into Fredericks

task force will examine national practices,

Construction funding of $8,934,000 was

The building was designed to reduce its
impact on the environment and meet the

Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design (LEED) for New Construction cri-
teria. The CT Building anticipates being
awarded a LEED Silver Certification.
Other building phases proposed for
CSMs 74-acre Regional Hughesville
Campus and reflected in the master plan
include a Health Sciences building, which

center, a field house and relocation of the

impediments that hurt Marylands beer
industry.
Task force members will include craft
brewers, consumers and other industry
stakeholders. All meetings, which will be
held across the state in the coming months,
will be open to members of the press and
the public. Marylanders will have oppor-
tunities to provide input at several town
halls being scheduled and consumers are
also encouraged to weigh in on the Re-
form On Tap Facebook page.
The task force will develop legisla-
tive proposals based on extensive review
of other states laws, and feedback from
industry stakeholders and the public, all
with the goal of facilitating the growth and
success of Marylands craft beer industry
and other independent, locally-owned
businesses.

Governor Hogan Touts a Bipartisan Legislative Effort

Maryland Governor Larry Hogan says
its the 2017 Maryland General Assem-
bly session was the best of his rst three
years. He issued the following statement:
For three straight years, we have passed
a budget without a single tax increase
- something almost unheard of in Mary-
land. Before our Administration, the sta-
tus-quo politicians in Annapolis never met
a tax they didnt like, nor one they didnt
hike. We stopped that. We are currently
delivering nearly $700,000,000 million in
toll, tax and fee reductions.
We promised to put Marylanders back
to work and turn our State around, and
we are doing exactly what we said we
would do. Since taking ofce, Maryland
has added an astounding 104,800 new
jobs. Just this year weve already added
24,700 new jobs showing that Maryland
is nally open for business! We were also
able to pass the Maryland Jobs Act which
will bring jobs to the areas that need them
most - the Lower Eastern Shore, Baltimore
City and Western Maryland.
The House of Delegates and the Senate
unanimously passed our Administrations
Public Integrity Act, which will bring
meaningful ethics reform to our State for
the rst time in nearly twenty years. This
law will bring accountability to lawmak-
ers and is aimed at nally ending the cul-
ture of corruption in our State.
We also repealed the terrible and di-
sastrous Road Kill Bill. This will enable
us to move forward with top priority road
projects in every single jurisdiction.
Weve made incredible progress, but
we still have much left to accomplish, and
we need your help. None of this would
be possible without your support. Thank
you from the bottom of my heart for be-
ing a partner in changing Maryland for the
better.
Just after the conclusion of the session
at midnight Monday the governor issued
the following press release on the session:
Governor Larry Hogans top legislative
priorities have achieved nal passage by
the Maryland General Assembly, ensur-
ing that the governors proposals to create
thousands of new jobs, restore integrity to
state government, and move forward with
dozens of critical transportation projects
across the state will become law. These
priority items included the More Jobs for
Marylanders Act, the Public Integrity Act,
and the Road Kill Bill Repeal.
Today is a great day for the legislative
process and a win for bipartisanship but
most importantly, it is a win for the people
of Maryland, who deserve more jobs, im-
proved roads, and the highest level of in-
tegrity from their elected ofcials, said
Governor Hogan. Creating jobs, building
roads, and ensuring ethical and transpar-
ent government will always be top priori-
ties of our administration. I want to thank
Senate President Mike Miller, Speaker
of the House Mike Busch, and all of the
members of the Maryland General
Assembly who worked with us to
achieve these tremendous results
for the citizens of our great state.
The governors More Jobs for
Marylanders Act continues the
administrations focus on creat-
ing jobs and improving the states
economy. While over 105,000
jobs have been created and em-
ployment reduced to 4.2% - the
lowest in nearly a decade - since
Governor Hogan took ofce, some
regions of the state continue to ex-
perience higher unemployment.
This legislation will target job cre-
ation to the areas that need it the
most such as Western Maryland,
Baltimore City, and the Lower
Eastern Shore by incentivizing
manufacturers to relocate and ex-
pand in these areas. The legisla-
tion provides major tax incentives

reafrms the administrations and states
commitment to provide the accountabil-
ity, transparency, and fairness that Mary-
landers deserve.
From the outset of the 2017 legisla-
tive session, Governor Hogan made it
clear that repealing the disastrous Road
Kill Bill passed in 2016 would be a top
priority. As a result of close collaboration
between the administration and leader-
ship in both houses of the legislature, the
governors Road Kill Bill Repeal passed
unanimously in both the House and Sen-
ate. This important, bipartisan progress
will enable the Maryland Department of
Transportation to move forward with 73
top priority transportation projects in ev-
ery jurisdiction of the state 66 of which
would have been jeopardized had the leg-
islation remained in place.
These three initiatives are part of the
robust legislative agenda Governor Hogan
proposed at the beginning of the 2017 ses-
sion, the vast majority of which have been
passed or are nearing nal passage in the
L
Maryland General Assembly.
In the closing days of the 2017 session

New Town Deputy
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
The post of town deputy assigned to the
Town of Leonardtown has been vacant for
several months but Mayor Dan Burris an-
nounced Monday that the vacancy may
soon be filled.
[Sheriff ] Tim [Cameron] said in
May, Burris told town council members
who asked when the post might be filled.
There is someone interested.
The town has long partnered with the
St. Marys County Sheriffs Office to have
a deputy assigned to patrol the town as a
special assignment with the town helping
to pay for the deputys salary.
The former deputy to hold the post
Cpl. Margaret Peggy Smolarsky re-
cently retired from the agency.
Cameron said putting a new deputy in
the position by next month is a possibil-
ity but it depended on whether there were
enough graduates from the regional crimi-

Ryken Boys Lacrosse
Falls Hard To Paul VI
By Zachary Hill
Contributing Writer
On Tuesday, April 11th, the St. Marys
Ryken boys lacrosse team fell to Paul VI
High School of Fairfax, Virginia.
After going down early, the Knights
struggled to make any sort of a comeback,
eventually falling 14-8 to the Panthers.
When asked how he felt going into
the game, St. Marys Ryken Head Coach
Chris Perkinson described his team as
feeling optimistic.
They are very good. Perkinson said.
We prepared a little differently and we
got caught in transition in the second
quarter. We knew going into it that they
were very fast and athletic going up and
down the field and thats what happens,
but we are going to learn from [this] and
correct it. Knights, leaving the score going into the
The Panthers managed to strike first in
game but #5 Joseph Snight (co-captain)
for the Knights was able to counter and tie
not even three minutes later.
Paul VI would then go on to score four
unanswered goals before the end of the
quarter, including a buzzer beater that
would leave the score at 5-1 at the end of
the first.
The Knights would slightly improve in
the second quarter with goals from #24

Tanner Donaldson and #6 Ryan Figueiras
(co-captain).
However, those goals wouldnt be
enough to match the three goals scored by
the Panthers and would leave the score at
8-3 going into the second half.
The Knights would come back hard into
the second half creating more opportuni-
ties and more than doubling their shots on
targets and goals from the first half.
The third quarter would be the most
successful quarter Ryken would play with
goals from #30 Quinn Ellenwood (co-
captain), #24 Tanner Donaldson, and #31
Tucker Jameson.
Unfortunately, the Panthers would have
a goal to match each one scored by the
final quarter at 11-6.
The Knights would go on to make one
final charge with #31 Tucker Jameson and
#30 Quinn Ellenwood (co-captain) both
tacking on second goals for the night.
These goals along with many other op-
portunities would not be enough to make a
comeback and the game would end with a
Knights defeat by a score of 14-8.
We battled back and I think we made
them work for their win and thats what I
#24 Tanner Donaldson works his way around a PVI defender
am most proud of tonight. Perkinson said.
We didnt quit and we didnt let a couple
goals get at us.
The Knights have seen its share of ups
and downs so far this season accord-
ing to Perkinson in his second season as
headcoach.
Chris Perkinson, after working as an
assistant coach for 8 years with the St.
Marys Rykens boys lacrosse team, fi-
nally took the reigns of the team last sea-
son following previous head coach John
Sothoron stepping down from his 27
seasoncareer.
We just need to find some consisten-
cy. Perkinson said. We have some youth

The Tackle Box Fishing Report
Rockfish season begins Saturday, April
15. The weather is finally acting like
spring and we will have 80 degree days
this week to get the fish going. Saturday
is predicted to be close to 70 with winds
from the south east at 13 MPH. Not the
best, but acceptable.
The fishing will be great. The early
warmth in February brought the fish to our
doorstep ; the March cold snap stopped
the spawn in its tracks, The fish now will
be moving on opening day. My prediction
is for the first 10 days of the season to be
the best. The trophy season from April
15 to May 15 will allow one fish per day,
with a minimum of 35 inches. This is for
the main stem of the bay only and all of
the Potomac River. The specifics of the
boundaries can be found at the Maryland
web site www.eregulations.com.
Umbrella rigs are tried and true trolling
lures for rockfish. There are a rainbow
hue of colors to choose from, all of which
will catch fish. I have always liked simple
white/white. The Potomac seems to favor
chartruse. Tandem rigs have become very
popular as they have much less drag and
strain on tackle. Single parachute and big
Mojos are always producers. All of these
lures rely on swimming shad bodies in 8-
to 12-inch size and in all the colors found
in a big box of crayons;all will will work
if presented to a hungry rockfish.

kids in different spots and we are trying
to get ready for the playoffs which is the
main goal.
The Knights now have a record of 6-6
and will be preparing to face off against
the team that Coach Perkinson first
coached, the Good Council Falcons from
Olney, Maryland.
I dont feel that [this game] will affect
us in a negative way. Perkinson said. We
are learners and we are growing as a team
and I think we are going to play better on
Thursday because of this game.
The two teams will square off at home
for the Knights on Thursday, April 13th,
on the Mil Family Field at 6 p.m.
Goalie #35 Austin Barnett makes an
athletic save on a PVI shot on target
Hardy fishermen who braved cold,
wind, and rain the last couple of weeks
found eager rockfish in the shallows in
both the Potomac and in the Salt Islands
in the mid-bay. Modest sized stripers and
some whoppers around 40 inches have
been taking all manner of lures. The fa-
vorite for many experienced fishermen is
a big swimming crank bait like the Bomb-
er Wind Cheater. The fish love them
and they are easy to cast. Jiggers using
bucktails, metal jigs and sassy shads have
found plenty of rockfish at the warm water
outfall at the Gas Plant above Cove Point.
Crappie, pickerel, and largemouth
bass have all been active at St. Marys
Lake. The crappie have been plentiful
with catches of 20 or 30 per outing com-
mon. Only about half of these are of eat-
ing size, Shad darts, beetle spins, and
live minnows are loved by crappie. Shore
fishermen cast a bait beneath a bobber and
reel in slowly. Boaters like to troll up and
down the middle of the lake. A shad dart
with a small split shot dragged slowly will
bring strikes. Bass have started nesting
and there many in the five pound class
ready to take a whacky worm rig or a
swimming plug. June 15 is the opening of
Bass season.

Hawks Finish Season With First LaPlaca Leads Seahawk
Trip to National Tournament Mens Lacrosse to Victory
For the first time in its history, the Col-
lege of Southern Maryland mens basket-
ball team won the Region XX Division II
Mens Basketball Championship this year.
That accomplishment qualified the Hawks
to compete in the National Junior College
Athletic Association (NJCAA) Division II
Tournament, which was held in Danville,
Illinois, March 21-25.
CSMs first game in the tournament was
against No. 1-seeded Southwestern Com-
munity College, the
Spartans from Creston,
Iowa. The Spartans
came out on top, win-
ning 94-69. Southwest-
ern went on to win the
tournament, giving the
Spartans their first na-
tional championship in
their history.

Lear Secures First of Season
On a blustery and cold night in Southern
Maryland, Kyle Lear braved the elements to
post his first win of the season in last Friday
nights 20-lap Limited Late Model feature at
Potomac Speedway. The win for Lear, steer-
ing his three-race old Rocket XR-1 no.151,
was his second of the young season as he
was the Late Model Sportsman winner at
Hagesrtown speedway the weekend prior.
Tyler Emory and Kyle Lear made up the
front row for the start with Emory darting
into the race lead as the field scattered off
turn two. Emory was on a rail for the first
half of the event with Lear and David
Williams in tow. Emorys undoing came
on the 16th lap as he and Lear made contact
coming off the fourth turn with Emory
spinning from contention. Lear would then
pace the final four circuits to post his 19th
career Potomac feature win over a fast
closing David Williams. There was a small
lip in the middle of three and four and I think
Tyler hit that wrong which is what got him
sideways. Lear stated post race. I didnt rick Quade 4. Billy Tucker 5. Tyler Emory
mean to get in to him but there was no where
for me to go. Lear was quite pleased with
the performance of his new race car. This
car has been unbelievable. Lear stated.
Were starting to get this thing figured out,
and two wins in two starts is a great way
to begin the season. Derrick Quade took
third, Billy Tucker was fourth with Emory
rebounding for fifth at the finish. Williams
took the heat win.
Cortland Ohios Eric Wilson made his
8-hour tow to Potomac Speedway a good one
as he would take his first career track win in
the 20-lap RUSH Crate Late Model main.
Wilson, who lined up fifth for the start, took
the lead from Darin Henderson on the third
lap and would eventually lead the distance,
but it was no easy trip to victory lane.

It could be a life lesson for St. Marys
County Public Schools (SMCPS) students
pained by the lack of snow days this past
winter. No pain, no gain! The gain will be
coming up in June when schools will be
closing four days earlier than anticipated,
gaining everyone four more days of sum-
mer break.
The new calendar ofcially approved by
the school board on April 5, calls for Fri-
day, June 9 to be the last day of school for
students and Monday, June 12 to be the last
day for teachers. June 23 will be the last
day for 11-month employees.
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, June
7-9 will be two-hour early dismissals for
students. June 6 will be the las day for
head-start and pre-K students.
State law requires students to attend 180
student days of school every year and
teachers are required 190 days. This school
year the only day in which school was can-
celled for snow was January 9. Two other
days had two-hour late stats, which still
count towards the 180 days. Those late-
start days were January 10 and January 30.
School Superintendent Scott Smith said
he was happy to see that the last day was
on a Friday so students wont have to come
back the following week; the original last
day was Thursday, June 15.
The calendar, presented to the board by
Chief Strategic Ofcer Dr. Jeffrey Maher,
also shows that this years high school com-
mencements will be as follows: May 31 for
Great Mills; June 1 for Chopticon; and June

Patuxent NAS Restricted

From Drone Flights By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer

For hobbyists or other non-military
users of unmanned air systems, com-
monly referred to as drones, the skies
just became more restricted after the
Federal Aviation Administraiton (FAA)
ruled this week that ying drones
over military installations, including
Patuxent River Naval Air Station, was
strictly prohibited.
Matt Scassero, director of the Univer-
sity System of Marylands UAS Test Site
in California, said the ruling had been a
long time in coming.
This ones been brewing for a while,
Scassero told The County Times. In
fact there were expressions of incredu-
lity as to why these restrictions hadnt
been enacted before.
The big thing theyre emphasizing is
that drones are aircraft and that if youre
operating one you are supposed to have
control over it at all times.
According to the FAA the latest ruling
is related to security concerns over un-
authorized drone ights; this is the rst
time the agency has enacted airspace re-
strictions that apply only to drones.
Metabolic training to

Workout
The FAA, working in conjunction
with the Department of Defense, has
agreed to restrict the ights to 400 feet
above the boundaries of 133 military fa-
cilities including Patuxent River Naval
Air Station.
The new rules also bring penalties for
breaking them, including civil and even
criminal sanctions.
The restrictions go into effect
this Friday.
This is balancing protection for secu-
rity reasons versus the publics rights,
Scassero said.
Airspace over Patuxent River Naval
Air Station has always been restricted
but the new restrictions apply not only
there but to Webster Field in St. Inigoes
as well, were a signicant amount of UAS
testing has taken place as well as work
on classied communication systems.
Residents who live nearby either in-
stallation now run the risk of inadver-
tently violating the airspace restrictions
if they are uncertain of where their
drone is in relation to the borders of
the installation.
Under the current re-
strictions, even visitors to
the Patuxent River instal-
lation who are using rec-
reational facilities could
face penalties for ying a
drone on base.
The latest move to se-
cure military facilities
from unauthorized drone
ights is just the rst step
in making ying drones
more restricted in the rest
of society.
Under the FAA Exten-
sion, Safety and Security
Act of 2016 the Secretary
of Transportation is to
create a process to evalu-
ate petitions to prohibit
or restrict drone ights
over critical infrastruc-
ture and other facilities,

Festival Featured Art
and the Cherry Trees
By Dick Myers
Staff Writer
Art and the trees were the big draws.
The first of what is hoped to be an annual
Art Park Cherry Blossom Festival was
held Sunday, April 9. With perfect spring
weather, crowds flocked to the former
Lexington Manor subdivision, otherwise
known as the Flattops. The homes there
were demolished to protect the base, but
the impressive cherry trees still line Coral
Drive.
The event started with the Great Mills
High School Marching Band welcoming
festival attendees lining the street. That
performance was followed by a dog pa-
rade, with prizes in multiple categories.
Then, all day there were many art-relat-
ed activities, such as chalk art, yarn bomb-
ing, mosaic totem building, and scarf and
paw art. Festival goers could also try their
hand at disc golf.
Several food vendors lined Coral Drive,
including Nicollettis Pizza and Captain

Jack Russells raw oysters and seafood
chowder. Also, arts and crafts vendors
participated.
Artists had an opportunity to submit
proposals for a mural design competition
and attendees could vote for their favorite.
The submitted art was on display in the
Tree Notch Theatre lobby.
The event was coordinated by the Com-
munity Development Corporation (CDC)
with the help of corporate sponsors. It was
the idea of CDC Executive Director Viki
Volk. She envisions the county-owned
land becoming a permanent art park.
Proceeds from the first festival went to
maintaining and saving the cherry trees,
which unfortunately were a few weeks be-
yond blooming but were worthy of gawk-
ing nonetheless.

with appearances on The Tonight Show
with Jay Leno, Fox & Friends, and The
Late Show with Craig Ferguson, and
CBS The Talk. The Grascals have per- grass concert for Sunday April 30 are
formed 150 times on the Grand Ole Opry,
performed twice for President George W.
Bush, and President Barack Obamas In-
augural Ball at the Smithsonian.
Not long after the group was created,
The Grascals caught the attention of coun-
try great Dolly Parton. Thanks to their
experiences and friendships, they were
a natural choice for Dolly to turn to for
recording and being a backup band for
her while on a Bluegrass tour. The group
continues to push the envelope. In 2010,
The Grascals joined The Rowdy Friends
Tour, traveling far and wide with Hank
Williams, Jr., playing before huge crowds,
expanding their fan base and exposing
Thursday, April 13, 2017
new audiences to the diverse and unique
Grascal sound. Along with their friend
and country singer, Dierks Bentley, they
recorded the theme for the History Chan-
nels TV Show American Pickers.
Whether theyre digging into one of
their original songs, reworking a Blue-
grass classic, or a pop standard, The Gras-
cals prove to have a musical empathy to
put just the right touch on any song they
do. Take for instance, fan favorite, Last
Train to Clarksville. Non-bluegrass lis-
teners enjoy a new take on a familiar song,
while diehard bluegrass audiences who
may have never heard the Monkeys clas-
sic, respond in-kind, not even realizing
that the song has been Grascalized..
Beginning at 2:00 pm with the doors
opening at Noon, Chris Tenney & River-
side South, host of the Prince Frederick
Rescue Squad Friday night Bluegrass jam,
will open the show. Troy Jones will pro-
vide sound. At the end of the concert, one
lucky person will walk away with $500.00
cash money! Fried chicken or pulled pork
platters to include Cole slaw & French
fries will be the food of choice serving at
Noon for a separate price
Tickets for the American Legion Blue-
$20.00 per person. This is a bargain for a

der 12 are admitted free with a paid adult.

The Rotary Club Teams Up With
Camp Maria Retreat Center to
Restore Handicap Ramps
The Rotary Club of Charlotte Hall
(Stephens Fund) and the Rotary Club of
Lexington Park, along with a matching
grant from Rotary District 7620, part-
nered with Camp Maria Retreat Center to
reconstruct six worn handicap wheelchair
access ramps on the cabins and the multi-
purpose building known as the Spiritual
Center. The project began in the Fall of
2016 and was just completed this Spring.
Rotary Club of Charlotte Hall member
Steve Mattingly initiated the project when
he saw the need and request for support to
replace handicap ramps in Camp Marias
Newsletter.
Camp Maria Retreat Center celebrates
80 years of service this year and has en-
joyed over long their long history, collabo-
ration with many groups that utilize the
facilities for a variety of programs. This
huge gift of nancial support and partici-
pation in the teardown and replacement of
the ramps by the Rotary clubs guarantees
an upgrade and much needed improve-
ment to the facilities. This improvement
will enhance access into buildings for
groups with special needs. At each step
throughout, the Rotary volunteers emu-
lated (service above self) on this project.
Camp Maria serves individuals from
the local community as well as many from
our regional area including Washington D.
C., Virginia and Maryland. Camp Maria

create a unique environment that engages
their customers and generates a feeling of
relevance and interactivity.

cated in the Old Post Ofce section of
Cecils Country Store and has 540 square
feet of retail space available. The existing
customer base at CCS provides Pop-Up

Meet Grace HELP SAVE

SHELTER
PETS
Grace was born June 2016. She is terried at Petco.
She went to a foster to adopt home for about a week
and all she did was hid. They wanted a cat that
was more instantly friendly. At my house if
I am sitting in the recliner or lying on the
couch she wants to be on my lap. She is
super affectionate with me. I think if you
let her live in your house for about a month
and let her come to you on her own, she
will be just as adoring. Maybe you could
foster to adopt her and see how friendly she
will eventually become and when she does so,
you could adopt her. Please give this sweetie a
chance. She will be at the Petco in California on
most Saturdays and Sundays from 10:30 to 3.
