Investigation into
Car Collision Continues
By Lauren Procopio
Staff Writer
A car collision sent seven people to
the hospital last Monday.
On May 18, around 6:21 p.m., units
from the Calvert County Sheriffs
Office Patrol Bureau and Crash Reconstruction Team were dispatched
to the area of Adelina Road and Sixes
Road, a Calvert County Sheriffs Office press release confirmed.
Preliminary investigation into the
collision revealed that the operator of
a 2014 Hyundai Elantra failed to yield
to the right of way to a 2013 Nissan
Armada when accessing Sixes Road
from Adelina Road.
Officials have identified the Hyundai driver as Brenda Lynn Stahl, 52,
of Port Republic. Stahl had two other
occupants in the vehicle with her a
15-year-old male in the front right
seat and a 15 year-old male in the
back right seat. According to officials,
Stahl was transported to Baltimore
Shock Trauma Center by Maryland
State Police (MSP) Trooper 7 and is
currently listed in stable condition.
The front-seat passenger was also
transported to Baltimore Shock Trauma Center via MSP Trooper 6 and is
listed in serious, but stable condition.

The other juvenile was transported


to Calvert Memorial Hospital and
officials stated he is listed in stable
condition.
The Nissan driver was identified
as Joseph Edward Berry Jr., 63, of
Prince Frederick. Berry was traveling with Pamela Thomas-Berry, 50,
of Prince Frederick, who was sitting
in the back right seat, as well as a
17-year-old male, who was sitting in
the front seat; and a 14-year-old female, who was sitting in the back left
seat. The four occupants were transported to Calvert Memorial Hospital,
where they are listed in stable condition, officials stated.
According to police, the Nissan
was traveling northbound on Adelina
Road, approaching Sixes Road, when
the Hyundai entered the path of the
Nissan from the right. The Nissan
struck the Hyundai on the right rear
axle and caused the Hyundai to spin
counterclockwise.
Deputy First Class Hardesty of the
Crash Reconstruction Team is currently investigating the events that
led up to the collision.

The Calvert County Historical Society welcomed the Donovan Sisters to


talk about their memories of the former
Chesapeake Beach amusement park
during their annual membership meeting and dinner.
The park closed in 1972 and was located on what is now the Chesapeake
Station housing development. The Donovan Sisters, Joanie Donovan Kilmon,
Gail Donovan Hawkins, and Diane
Donovan Harrison, came to the meeting
to talk about their experiences growing up and working at the Chesapeake
Beach Amusement Park.
1946 to 1972 was so Norman Rock-

wellian safe, peaceful, and idyllic,


Harrison said. She talked about the ballroom, the synchronized swimming and
diving teams, and some of the traditions
there, such as the countys sixth grade
picnic.
All three of the sisters played and
worked at the park growing up.
The park has been a family affair for
us our whole lives, Kilmon said.
Following the Donovan Sisters presentation, the Historical Society nominated their new board of directors. The
newly elected president of the board is
Guffrie Smith.

Proposed Sign NRC Names New Resident


Regulations
Inspector at Calvert
Moving Forward
Cliffs Nuclear Plant

By Sarah Miller
Staff Writer

What will signage look like


in your community in the future? Do you want to have a say?
Come out to the June 9 work
session with the Department
of Planning and Building and
the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) to voice your
opinion.
The sign regulation updates
have been underway for more
than a year, said Long Range
Planner Jenny Plummer-Welker.
So far, there have been 10 community meetings to discuss the
proposed changes.
Sign regulations can be
contentious and we wanted the
public to be heavily involved,
said Department of Community
Planning and Building Director
Tom Barnett.
So far, there have been a
number of discussion topics
the community has identified,
Plummer-Welker said, including
temporary signs for non-profit

organizations on county property, permits for temporary signs,


and the amount of signage allowed in windows at businesses.
Allowing temporary signs on
public property could be a big
can of worms, Barnett said.
If you allow one, you have
to allow them all and that gets
problematic.
Signs affect everybody, Barnett said. Businesses live and
die by signs, he said, and nonbusiness owners dont want too
many in the community. The
goal is to find a reasonable middle ground.
Community member comments are public and available
for review on the Calvert County website.
The Department of Community Planning and Building will
have a work session with the
Board of County Commissioners on June 9, Plummer-Welker
said.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission officials in King of Prussia,


Pa., have selected Christopher
Roentgen as the new Resident
Inspector at the Calvert Cliffs
nuclear plant in Lusby, Md. The
plant is operated by Exelon.
Chris Roettgens experience, technical expertise and
training will assist the NRC in
carrying out its mission to protect people and the environment
by ensuring the safe operation
of the Calvert Cliffs units, said
NRC Region I Administrator
Dan Dorman.
Roettgen joined the Region
I office in February 2014 as a
project engineer in the Division of Reactor Projects. Prior
to joining the agency, he served
for ten years as a submarine
officer in the U.S. Navy. Roettgen earned a bachelors degree
in physics from the U.S. Naval
Academy and a masters in applied physics from the University of Maryland, Baltimore
County.

Each U.S. commercial nuclear power plant site has at least


two NRC Resident Inspectors.
Roettgen joins Senior Resident Inspector Rodney Clagg
at Calvert Cliffs. They serve

as the agencys eyes and ears at


the facility, conducting inspections, monitoring significant
work projects, and interacting with plant workers and the
public.

Calvert County Officials Urge Awareness


During Hurricane Preparedness Week
Maryland Hurricane Preparedness Week
began Sunday, May 24, and the Calvert
County Emergency Management Division
is teaming with the Maryland Emergency
Management Agency (MEMA) and the National Weather Service (NWS) to promote
citizen awareness and preparedness.
The Atlantic hurricane season lasts from
June to November but most hurricane-like
weather is seen between mid-August and
late October. Calvert County is at risk for
strong winds, heavy rain, inland flooding
and other severe weather. Residents can be
weather ready by ensuring they know
how to get a warning, have a plan and practice safety tips.
Safety during any type of severe weather event is the key, said Al Jeffery, Calvert
County emergency management specialist.
Familiarize yourself with hurricane evacuation routes and know how to find higher
ground. Flooding and debris from strong

winds are often the deadly and destructive


results of a hurricane. Stay tuned to radio
and TV stations for official weather information and follow instructions given by
emergency officials.
While the last two hurricane seasons
have been relatively quiet, we all remember
the devastation from Hurricane Sandy in
2012, especially in the New York City area
and on Marylands lower eastern shore,
said MEMA Executive Director Clay
Stamp. Its important for us to always be
prepared because even in a quiet hurricane
season, just one hurricane making landfall
in our area can be devastating.
The NWS highlights that in Maryland it
is possible to see hurricanes or hurricanelike activity during the summer. Damage
to coastlines and destruction several hundred miles inland can be seen with these
tropical storms, said NWS Warning Coordination Meteorologist Chris Strong. Hur-

ricanes can produce 150+ miles-per-hour


winds, devastating high tides, flooding from
torrential rain and even tornadoes.
Residents can also take actions to remain
safe by practicing the following tips:
Stay tuned to radio and TV stations for
official weather information.
Follow instructions and advice given by
emergency officials.
Stay indoors during the hurricane and
away from windows and glass doors.
Close all interior doors; secure and
brace external doors.
Take refuge in a small interior room,
closet or hallway on the lowest level.
Avoid using the phone except in the case
of emergencies.
Avoid elevators.
If you live in a mobile home, plan to
leave. Mobile homes are unsafe in high
winds.
Do not attempt to evacuate during the

height of a hurricane. You are safer in your


home than out on the road.
Ensure a supply of water for sanitary
purposes such as for cleaning and flushing
toilets. Fill a bathtub or other large container with water. This is important for those
whose water runs off of an electrical system.
This time of year is a good time to sign
up for Calvert ALERT, a notification system
that can send messages by text, email, fax,
land line and pager. Residents are urged to
visit the county website and click the Emergency Alerts link to register for the notification service. Those without Internet access
can call 410-535-1600, ext. 2638, to sign up.
To learn more about emergency preparedness, contact the Calvert County Department of Public Safety, Division of Emergency Management, at 410-535-1600, ext.
2638. For information on Calvert County
Government, visit www.co.cal.md.us or like

2015 CLICK IT OR TICKET


Border to Border

As motorists take to the roads this Memorial Day holiday, the Sheriffs Office
is urging everyone to buckle up. Law
enforcement officials will be out in full
force, taking part in the 2015 national
Click It or Ticket seat belt enforcement
mobilization and cracking down on motorists who are not belted.
As we kick-off the busy summer
driving season, it is critical that everyone buckles up every time they go out,
day and night no excuses, said Sheriff
Mike Evans. Our deputies are prepared
to ticket anyone who is not wearing their
seat belt, including drivers that have neglected to properly buckle their children.
Click It or Ticket.
During the National Campaign wave
in mobilizing the Click It or Ticket
(CIOT) Border to Border Operation,
the Calvert County Sheriffs Office will
partner with the Maryland State Police,
St. Marys County Sheriffs Office and
the Charles County Sheriffs Office to
provide increased seat belt enforcement
at county borders. The Border to Border Operation will send a zero tolerance message to the public: Driving or
riding unbuckled will result in a ticket,
no matter which county or state.
According to the U.S. Department

of Transportations National Highway


Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA),
9,580 passenger vehicle occupants killed
in 2013 were not wearing their seat belts
at the time of the crash. And unbelted
fatalities are more prevalent at night than
during the daytime: 59 percent of those
killed in 2013 during the overnight hours
of 6:00 p.m. to 5:59 a.m. were unbelted at
the time of the crash.
Seat belts save thousands of lives
every year, but far too many motorists
are still not buckling up, especially at
night when the risk of getting in a crash
is even greater, said Sheriff Evans. We
want to make this the safest summer
possible. Buckling up is not optional; its
the difference between life and death in
a crash. Thats why were out here enforcing the law. Click it or Ticket, every
time, day or night.
From 2008 to 2012, seat belts have
saved nearly 63,000 lives nationwide. So
while this years Click It or Ticket enforcement mobilization runs from May
18-31, officers will continue to save lives
by enforcing seat belt laws year-round.

Ticket mobilization, please visit www.

Budget Time

LOOKING FOR
A BABYSITTER?

Its that time of year. Finalize the budget for


the fiscal year that begins July 1 with less revenue and increased expenses. Staff, Sheriff
Deputies, and Teachers want pay raises. Nobody
is paid enough. Howd we get here? The days of
simply working well yielding a yearly salary increase are gone. A pay raise implies growth expectations for the subsequent year because that
expense will compound.
Economic policies of Washington, D.C. directly affect the U.S. economy. We now see the
proverbial chickens have come home to roost
characterized by the saying Elections have consequences. Some improve their income through
entrepreneurship, take chances and risks, and
a very few from luck. Most are paid the value
of their labor as determined affordable by their
employer.
Supporters of the winning candidate for Maryland Governor in 2006 and 2010, and President in
2008 and 2012, have some explaining to do. The
new Governor of Maryland, in office less than
half a year has only begun attempting roll back of
harsh economic and taxing policies of his predecessor. Who among us believe the President will
reverse course in policy to permit the economy
to recover? The U.S. Economy has not improved
from 2008 because of failed economic policies.
We are in the midst of Americas Lost Decade
(2008 - 2018) with only a glimmer of hope it will
improve nearer to 2018.
There are many wonderful government employees providing vital, essential, necessary and
helpful services to and for our citizens. Not one
dollar (income tax and property tax) can go to
any government employee unless or until it is
first created by the private sector; and it is hurting. Increasing tax rates upon our already overtaxed county citizens wont solve the problem.
Instead, the economy needs to grow. Alternatively, cuts in county services may need to occur.
That lack of economic improvement was compounded by more than 40 state tax increases
over the last 8 years by the most recent failed
Maryland State Administration. The worst was
the double dipping placed upon the tax payers
when the state forced counties to pay teachers
pensions without reducing the equivalent amount

of taxes going to the state.


For Calvert County, the
amount in FY-13 of $2.8
million continued increasing to $4.8 million in
FY-16, totaling $15.3 million through FY16.
Available funding that
could have otherwise
Evan K.
been used for salary increases instead went to- Slaughenhoupt Jr. (R)
wards an unsustainable
pension system. Doubly
harmed were the teachers
and other local county staff who not only had
their taxes double dipped, less funds became
available to support pay raises.
Contrary to the miss-reporting by some local
news outlets and individuals, the proposed funding of schools at the minimum (called Maintenance of Effort) for FY16 is not the first time in
decades. The last time MOE funding occurred
was just 3 years ago (FY13).
Some say raise taxes and pay me more but
dont realize that would hurt their net take home
pay. If one were to raise tax rates, why would it
be just to cover increased teacher salaries, and
not sufficiently large to include other needs? Doing so would likely cause less take home pay.
Meanwhile, a new reality is that since FY09,
the local student population decreased from
nearly 17,000 to just over 15,000 with projected
declines continuing at least through 2025. Some
might wonder if the decreasing enrollment was
instead increasing, the conversation would be
about building additional schools.
Calvert County will take a different approach
to the budget build beginning with FY17. It will
base line its Services and Functions with funding
based upon relative priorities and recognizing
the new realities. The separately elected Board
of Education can do what it wants, but it is highly
recommended they take a similar approach.

joined when he was just 17 years old; Weber lost his arm and leg while fighting in
the Korean War.
Its known as the Forgotten War, he
said to onlookers, he stated he is hopeful
that people will take a special moment to
understand that lives were lost during the
war.
If you went to Korea, you stood one
chance in nine to be killed or wounded,
Weber stated.

We fought Korea to save the world from


communism. They are the only people who
appreciate what we did for them, Weber
said.
Among those in attendance during the
opening ceremony was President of the
Maryland Senate Thomas V. Mike Miller,
Jr.; Delegate Mark Fisher; County Commissioner Pat Nutter; Secretary of Veterans Affairs George Owings; Sheriff Mike
Evans; Chesapeake Beach Mayor Bruce

CSM Brick Recognition Ceremony Remembers,


Honors Impact of 8 Individuals on Families, Friends
The College of Southern Maryland hosted a Brick Recognition
Ceremony May 3 at the Prince
Frederick Campus in tribute to
eight individuals and their impact
on families and friends.
Today is about recognizing
our partners and our supporters by
honoring and remembering those
who believe in the mission of the
College of Southern Maryland and
share in the vision to transform
lives, one at a time, said CSM
Foundation Chair Christine Rush.
It starts with a brick, or a scholarship, a room naming or an event
sponsorship. That generosity and
investment today, enriches and immeasurably impacts our communitys tomorrows.
Those recognized with either a
memorial or honorary brick, which
are placed in the brick walkway
entrance to Building A on the
Prince Frederick Campus, include:
Charles R. Dick Bailey Sr., Joe
and Aline Cafiero, Drs. Richard
and Jean Fleming, John and Mary
Anne Harms, and Bette A. Whyte.
Bailey was remembered as a
dedicated and strong family man
who served as a role model in
the community and for his family. Born in Washington, D.C. in
1929, Bailey was married for 64
years to Kathleen Kay Scheibel
and together they ran J.A. Scheibel
Construction until his retirement.
An avid sportsman, Bailey shared
his hobbies with his sons Rick and
John, and grandchildren.
Joe and Aline Cafiero were honored by their daughter CSM Associate Professor Joy Syring. Aline
Cafiero attended Armstrong Junior

College in Savannah, Georgia,


with her daughter following in her
footsteps and attending the same
school when it became Armstrong
State College. Syring credits her
parents for instilling in her a passion for education and dream of being a professor.
Drs. Richard and Jean Fleming supported the program with
an honorary brick to each other
in tribute to their commitment to
the college and to Calvert County.
Collectively, they have worked
in education for nearly 70 years
in a wide variety of positions in
six states. They moved to Calvert
County when Richard Fleming became vice president and dean of the
Prince Frederick Campus in 2009.
Jean Fleming graduated from
CSMs nursing program in 2013.
John Harms was remembered by
his wife, Mary Anne Harms. Born
in Hagerstown, John Harms was
an engineer and founded the John
E. Harms Jr. and Associates Engineering consulting firm in 1955. He
served as president and CEO for
many years. John Harms believed
that the value of a man should be
seen in what he gives and not in
what he is able to receive, therefore
both he and his wife are well known
for their generosity. Through the
Harms philanthropy, the Healing
Garden at Calvert Memorial Hospital, Harms Gallery at the Calvert
Marine Museum and the Marianne
Harms Multidisciplinary Suite at
the Sheldon E. Goldberg Center
for Breast Care at Calvert Health
System.
A brick was also placed in honor
of Mary Anne Harms next to her

late husband. An astute businesswoman, a friend raiser and a philanthropist, Mary Anne Harms
generosity has touched many lives
and served as a catalyst for improving Southern Maryland. Mary
Anne Harms, with her husband
John, created a scholarship fund
that has made an impact on many
Calvert County students pursuing
their higher education goals. She is
an advocate for education and what
it can do for a persons quality of
life.
Whyte was remembered by her
daughter, CSM Lead Institutional
Research Analyst Kathy Marshall.
Born in Baltimore in 1933, Whyte
had four children, seven grandchildren and five great-grandchildren
and was happiest when working
around people. A collector and
antique enthusiast, Whyte enjoyed
going to auctions and loved spending time at the beach, especially in
Florida, said Marshall.
The CSM Brick Program is a
lasting celebration of those who
have a special connection to CSM
and the Southern Maryland community. As a tribute to a family
member, a friend or to represent
a special occasion, a brick is inscribed and placed among other
honorary bricks at locations available on all three campuses. Bricks
are available for $200 with the
funds providing financial support
to the college and its mission.

Local Sailors Seek to Build


Up Solomons Sailing Community
By Sarah Miller
Staff Writer
Right on the heels of their last venture,
Lisa and Andy Batchelor Frailey are finding
new ways to build up the sailing community
in Solomons.
They want to help individuals who want to
get into the cruising lifestyle but arent sure
how to go about doing so, Lisa said. She and
Andy have years of experience and want to
put their knowledge to use in the local sailing
community, so they started Kinetic Sailing,
designed to build on their first business, Sail
Solomons Sailing School and Charter.
Through Kinetic Sailing, Lisa and Andy
will consult with individuals ready to purchase their first boat. The couple can walk
through the process, offering marine consulting, charter brokerage, deliveries, and specialized instruction with a more global scope,
Lisa said.
Lisa and Andy are both USCG Masters
and American Sailing Association (ASA) instructors. They founded Sail Solomons to fill
the need in the area for a quality sailing and
cruising school. Operating in the Chesapeake
and Caribbean, Sail Solomons was awarded
ASAs Outstanding School for five consecutive years.
Kinetic Sailing will not be in competition with Sail Solomons, Lisa said. She and
Andy sold the school, but are still involved
as instructors and advisors. Kinetic Sailing is
meant to dovetail with Sail Solomons and cater to individuals ready to take the next step.
According to a Kinetic Sailing press release, long-time sailors and boat owners,
they (Lisa and Andy) met at a sailing regatta
in Naples Italy while both serving overseas.

Andy retired in 2003 as a Royal Air Force


Wing Commander in the intelligence world,
married Lisa, and set his sights on a new career in sailing. In 2006, Lisa retired as a US
Navy Captain in the aviation, meteorology
and oceanography fields, and the couple relocated from Washington DC to Solomons,
Md.
Lisa and Andy are currently outfitting
their Outbound 46 Kinetic, and look forward
to full-time cruising in 2016.

goes down another 15 percent, Woo-

The Southern Maryland


Chapter of the Military Officers Association of America
(MOAA) hosted Maryland
House State Delegate Tony
ODonnell at Adams Ribs of
Prince Frederick on May 16.
Delegate ODonnell, a veteran
himself, reviewed the bills related to veterans issues in the

recent legislative session. The


bill that received the most attention this year, one to exempt
veteran pension income from
Maryland state income tax, was
reduced to only increasing the
exemption for veterans 65 and
older to $10,000. The original
bill would have exempted all
veteran retirement income and

would have encouraged veterans to retire in Maryland and


pursue a second, taxable career, according to the Maryland
Retired Veterans Task Force.
Delegate ODonnell supported
the original bill. For more information about the Southern
Maryland Chapter of MOAA,

York Haven Pa.s Jason Covert became the


first repeat winner of the season with his win
in last Sunday nights 35-lap Ernie Jones
Memorial at Potomac speedway. The win
for Covert, worth a cool $3,022 pay day, was
the defending track champions 6th career Potomac Late Model win.
The re-draw placed Covert and Ricky
Elliott on the front for the start of the event
with Covert darting into the race lead as the
field roared down the backstretch. As Covert
lead, fourth starting Kenny Moreland settled
into second on lap-three, and set his sights on
Covert. Moreland would get close as the laps
wore down but Covert would eventually lead
all 35-circuits to score the popular win. This
win gos to all the guys back at the shop.
Covert stated during his post-race interview.
We hurt a motor last night at Winchester
and these guys busted their tails all day today
getting a new motor put in the car so we could
race tonight. Covert reflected the importance
to he and his team to win on Memorial Day
weekend. My heart gos out to all the armed
service people past and present. Covert
quipped. These people are the ones that allow
us the freedoms to do the things we enjoy and
its an honor for myself and this team to win on
Memorial day. Amanda Whaley scored her
career-best Potomac finish taking third with
Ross Robinson and Jamie Lathroum rounding out the top-five. Heats went to Covert and
Moreland.
Darin Henderson took his second win of the
season in the 20-lap RUSH Crate Late Model
and his second of the weekend as he took
top-honors at Winchester the evening prior.
Henderson would start on the pole and lead all
20-circuits but would have to fend off a pesky
Logan Roberson, who came from 12th, over
the final six laps to post the win. However,
the power plant bolted in Hendersons Rocket
no.22 was confiscated by track officials in
accordance with RUSH officials for a complete
inspection, so Hendersons winning effort is
declared unofficial until the validity of the
engine can be determined. Matt Glanden, Ben
Bowie and Darren Alvey unofficially completed the top-five. heats went to Ben Bowie

and Matt Tarbox.


In support class action Mike Latham
collected his second win of the season and
career 39th in the 16-lap Street Stock feature,
Ed Pope Jr. rolled to his third win of 2015 in
the 15-lap Hobby Stock main and defending
Winchester Speedway U-Car champion
Jeff Wilkins scored his first-career Potomac
feature win in the 20-lap U-Car event.

Cornerstones,
Breaks and
Chemistry
By Ronald N. Guy Jr.
Contributing Writer
My wife wears me out for my alleged man crushes. She latches on to
many suspects - Hunter S. Thompson,
Keith Richards, Art Monk, Martin
Luther King Jr., Batman, Abe Lincoln, Sam Calagione (Mr. Dogfish
Head Brewery) and The Dude from
The Big Lebowski and produces an
avalanche of comic reliefat my expense. Admittedly, its quite a list, an
(apparently) irresistible cornucopia of
material for her needler gene.
Of course she often (and intentionally for the sake of laughter) mischaracterizes affinity for awkward infatuation. But I am guilty. I have man
crushes, like my little thing for Gary
Williams, former Maryland mens
basketball head coach and member
of the Naismith Memorial Basketball
Hall of Fame.
Williams rebuild of the Maryland
basketball program after Len Bias
death and the NCAA sanctions in the
late 1980s is legendary. Williams inherited a program in 1989 that was in
the midst of a near death experience.
13 years later, Williamss Terps won
the 2002 National Championship. His
signature now appropriately adorns
the court at Xfinity Center on the
Maryland campus.
Man crush? Oh yeah, I love me
some Gary Williams. But it was another Williams Walt Williams that
Gary often credits with much of his
success. Walt arrived at Maryland a
year before Gary and by all accounts
should have transferred. He was too
talented to languish on a bad team and
with a program banned from postseason play. But Walt stayed and became
the cornerstone player for Garys
great reclamation.
Current Maryland head coach Mark
Turgeon found himself desperately
seeking a program cornerstone last
year. In three seasons at Maryland,
Turgeon hadnt produced a NCAA
tournament team and several talented
players had transferred. The program
was flailing again and Turgeon
was on the hot seat.
Then Melo Trimble arrived and
changed everything. Trimble, a McDonalds All-American point guard
from Upper Marlboro, was sensational last season. He distributed the ball.
He scored. He calmed. He inspired.
After ripping off 28 wins, Melo and
the Turtles gave a school and its coach
their swag back.

Turgeon was fortunate to get Trimble. Gary was lucky to keep Walt.
Such is life. Getting a break is one
thing; doing something extraordinary
with it is special. Gary did (hence my
crush). Turgeon might too.
Since Marylands season ended
with a third-round NCAA Tournament loss to West Virginia, no school
has improved more than the Terps.
Turgeon, already with highly touted
Georgia Tech transfer Robert Carter
inbound for 2015-16, used Trimbles
decision to return for his sophomore
season to score Diamond Stone, a
five-star recruit, and Duke transfer
Rasheed Sulaimon. The additions
have Maryland, a program that just
made its first NCAA tournament appearance since 2010, tucked well
within the preseason top five.
What a difference a year makes.
Turgeon was Robert Zimmerman last
summer; hes Bob Dylan (yes, another
man crush) now. Turgeons no longer
fighting for his job, but the recruiting
success has created new concerns.
The Terps will sneak up on no one
next year and will face expectations
Maryland hasnt seen since Juan Dixon was playing at Cole Field House.
But those are uncontrollable, external
forces. Turgeons biggest challenge is
internal: molding this massive collection of randomly assembled talent
into a cohesive unit.
Marylands pending chemistry experience will likely include three new
starters (Stone, Sulaimon and Carter),
a handful of players with designs on
the 2016 NBA Draft and talented
incumbents vying for playing time.
Turgeon will have to compel this
fabulous collection of 18 to 21-yearolds, many stars in their own right,
to sacrifice and accept roles for the
betterment of the whole. Its a better
problem to have any manager in any
facet of life would choose excessive
talent over a talent deficiency - but
Turgeon will be tested, as a master of
basketball Xs and Os and human behavior. I wish him luck. I cant get my
kids to collaborate on modest household chores.
With Marylands recent success
and bright future, am I crushing on
Turgeon? Not yetbut if the Turtles
cut down the nets next April, suffice
to say my wife will have some new
material.

From my Backyard to our Bay


A St. Marys County Residents Guide to Improving Our Environment and Drinking Water

From My Backyard
to Our Bay was first
developed by the Baltimore
County Soil Conservation
District. From there, the
booklet was given to each
of the Soil Conservation
Districts in the Chesapeake
Bay watershed area for
customization. If the 17.5
million residents who live in
the watershed area of the
Chesapeake Bay read this
booklet, and took to heart
its suggestions and best
practices, the Chesapeake
Bay would see a dramatic
increase in health. Obtain
a FREE copy of the
booklet by going to the St.
Marys River Watershed
Association, smrwa.org and
downloading it. The booklet
is available at Wentworth
Nursery in Charlotte Hall;
Chicken Scratch in Park
Hall; The Greenery in
Hollywood; Good Earth
Natural Food; and the St.
Marys Soil Conservation
District in Leonardtown.
Join your local watershed
association and make a
difference for Our Bay!

Forest Stewardship
Forest land is important to the overall
health of the Chesapeake Bay. Forests
provide several layers, from the canopy
to the forest floor, that act as filters,
improve water quality, reduce sedimentation, remove nutrients, and regulate
stream flow during storms.
Marylands 2.5 million acres of forest,
most of it privately owned, cover approximately 42% of its land area. St.
Marys Countys land area is about 50%
forested, and has more than 400 miles
of shoreline. Wooded buffers along
these shorelines are critical to improving Bay health. Acre for acre, forested
lands produced the least amount of runoff and pollution. The County occupies
a forest transitional zone, where the
dominant tree species vary from oak/
hickory to tulip poplar to sweet gum/red
maple and loblolly pine.
Forests can be harvested on a sustainable basis for materials, including
structural lumber, crates, shelving
and furniture, flooring, mulch, and
pulp for paper. Forests can, in most
cases, provide these products while
