Judge Clagett Talks About
Drug Court, Paperless Ofce
By Dick Myers
Staff Writer
Calvert County Circuit Court Adminis-
trative Judge Marjorie Clagett presented
her annual State of the Court Report Feb 14
to the county commissioners. In the report
the judge highlighted the move towards a
paperless ofce, renovations to the court-
house and the successes of the two-year-old
drug court.
The drug court had its rst graduation
last August of the ve graduates. She said
four have jobs add the fth is nishing col-
lege and has a job waiting upon gradua-
tion. The second graduation is planned for
March 23rd with nine graduates anticipated.
Judge Clagett said the drug court now
has 80 attendees, the same size as Mont-
gomery Countys program. She told the
commissioners she hoped they would fund
the program consistent with hat Montgom-
ery County does.
Drug court attendees are required to stay
with the program for at least 18 months in
order to graduate. When they are assigned
by the court to the program they are given
ve years of supervised probation and tech-
nically they could stay with the program as
long as ve years or until they complete it
Once they graduate they are on unsuper-
vised probation.
Commissioner Pat Nutter, who is on the
drug courts advisory board said he always
believed the program would save money by
diverting people from a costly stay in jail.
Judge Clagett agreed: We are taking away
from the jail population.
County Administrator Terry Shannon
said she had observed a decline in the jail

While the unit is ofine, technicians will

Additionally, this year, Calvert will be

Some of the major projects in the six-year

Northern High School renova-
tion (now 10-percnt complete)
-- $76.9million
Beach Elementary replacement --

Calvert Country School remodel --
$1.8 million, FY 18
Northern Middle School replacement

bly at 901 Dares Beach Rd. in Prince

U.S. Senator Ben Cardin (D-Md.)released
the following statementFeb. 10 regarding the
9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling that the
suspension of President Trumps immigra-
tion orders will stay in place:
The President should immediately re-
scind his discriminatory executive order
targeting Muslim refugees and travelers. His
rush to act has made America less safe, dam-
aged our relationships with our allies, and
harmed countless numbers of law-abiding
citizens, travelers, and their families. Amer-
ica is a compassionate nation steeped with a
history of immigrants and refugees. Presi-
dent Trump still does not understand that this
diversity makes us stronger as a country, not
weaker. Instead, the President should turn
the page on his divisive campaign rhetoric
and work with Congress on a bipartisan,
comprehensive immigration reform proposal
like the Senate passed in 2013.
Last night the Ninth Circuit provided a
valuable check and balance on the Presidents
authority. This should be a teachable moment
for the President on the separation of powers
and rule of law, and a reminder of the three
equal and independent branches of govern-
ment that have all sworn to uphold the Con-
stitution. No American president is above the
law. This president should stop denigrating
judges and members of Congress and move
on to a more viable and legal pathway to im-
migration reform that protects our nation and
upholds American values.

 6 Crime
Grandmother Charged Fatal Striking Under
With Poisoning Child Investigation
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
A Calvert County District Court judge
ruled Monday morning that a woman
charged with poisoning her own grandchild
with methadone must remain in local de-
tention with no possibility of bond.
Judith Ann Tetreault, 55, of Lusby faces
charges of rst-and-second-degree child
abuse, rst-degree assault, attempted poi-
soning, neglect of a minor and distribution
of narcotics.
The child, a one-year-old boy, remains in
critical condition following the alleged poi-
soning, police have reported.
Police say that the childs mother left him
with Tetreault at her Roundup Road resi-
dence Feb. 9 but received continual texts
stating that the child would not stop crying
and that his stomach felt hard.
Other texts, sent at about 2p.m. that day,
from Tetreault to the childs mother read

The mother returned later Feb.9 to pick
her child up and found that he lacked en-
ergy and even had a purple-colored com-
plexion, charging papers stated.
The mother took her child to Calvert
Memorial Hospital for treatment; doctors
and nurses began using naloxone to bring
the child around but were unsatised with
the results.
They transferred the child to George-
town University Medical Center for more
care, police reports stated.
Tests revealed that the child tested
positive for methadone, a narcotic used to
wean addicts off of heroin and other opi-
oids; detectives found that Tetreault had a
prescription for liquid methadone from a
Baltimore facility.
The childs mother told medi-
cal staff at Georgetown that the
childs drink cup smelled suspi-
cious; doctors were able to con-
rm that the overdose of the child
took place at about the same time
that Tetreault texted the mother
about her childs continual crying.

Northern Patriots Win
Chesapeake Cup; Advance
to State Tournament
By Zach Hill
Contributing Writer
Last Friday, February 10th, Northern
High Schools ice hockey team skated their
way to winning the Maryland Scholastic
Hockey Leagues Southern Conference
against Leonardtown and took home the
grand prize, the Chesapeake Cup.
Leonardtown was hoping to repeat their
outcome from last years Chesapeake Cup
tournament but ultimately were unable to
defend their title and fell, 6-2.
Prior to the game, Northern came into the
bracket as the number one seed in the South-
ern Conference and only had to go through
one team, Thomas Stone, to get to the final.
Leonardtown did not have such an easy
time getting there.
The low seed went through St. Marys
Ryken II by a score of 6-1, and upset the sec-
ond seeded Huntingtown 5-4 to make it to
the final. Deliver the Patriots did by going up 3-0 in
We knew that Leonardtown had some
momentum going into the game. North-
erns Head Coach Erik Larsen said. They
beat Huntingtown by getting an early jump
on them and forcing them to try and play
catch up. We expected that would be their
strategy against us as well.
Out of all of the teams in the Southern
Conference, Northern definitely earned

their right to be in the final the most of all.
After losing their home ice rink, Tucker
Road, to a fire earlier this season which
forced them to give up precious practice
time, the Patriots still managed to win all of
their conference games.
Before the game, Coach Larsen was sure
to remind his team about the struggles they
went through to get to where they were
thatnight.
We spoke about all the hard work we did
to get to the championship game. Larsen
said. We won every conference game of
the season and earned the right to win the
cup. But Leonardtown isnt going to give it
to us without a fight. We spoke about gain-
ing control of the game early and and forc-
ing Leonardtown to chase us. The players
reallydelivered.
just the first period, taking complete control
of the game from the start.
The second period ran a similar story line
to the first with Northern outscoring Leon-
ardtown 2-1 bringing the score at the end of
the second period to 5-1.
The real boost going into the third period
came from #81, Captain Brian Middledorf,
when he managed to pull off a buzzer beater

6:30 to 8:00 pm
goal at an extremely tight angle just as the
second periods time expired.
Many players and coaches laughed and
told Brian Middledorf after that they had
never seen a buzzer beater before in a hock-
ey game.
Eventually, both Northern and Leonar-
dtown would tack on one more goal in the
third and Northern would get to rush the ice
to their excitement of a 6-2 win.
Both teams received their respective
medals and then the Northern Patriots
were given the privilege of hoisting the
ChesapeakeCup.
Captain Brian Middledorf had the honor
of receiving the trophy and brought it back
just to find himself surrounded in celebra-
tion with his teammates and coaches.
Coach Larsen called Captain Middledorf
the star of the game, and for very good
reason.The large senior forward Brian Mid-
dledorf managed to put up four goals for
histeam.
However, it was the defense and depth of
the team that Coach Larsen emphasized as
the biggest reason for their success.
I think the key for us was the strength
of our defensive play. Larsen said. Leon-
ardtown has some talented players that can
be dangerous. Our guys did a really good
job of limiting Leonardtowns offensive op-
portunities. We held them to only 16 shots.
CSM Soccer Players Sign Intent Letters
Three members of the College of Southern
Marylands womens soccer team have been
awarded scholarships and signed their intent
to play for the Glenville State College Pio-
neers in the fall 2017 season. Glenville State
College is a public college located in Glen-
ville, West Virginia.
Danielle Bowling of Faulkner, Kelly
Bruce of Brandywine and Julia Lesko of La
Plata will be playing in the inaugural season
for Glenvilles womens soccer team.
Bowling is in her second year at CSM,
where she is majoring in business adminis-
tration. She graduated from La Plata High
School. Danielles outstanding footwork
was obvious from day one, she has an in-
stinctive first touch that makes it look like
she is playing in more space than every other
player on the field, said Barry McGrellis,
womens soccer head coach. A less obvious
characteristic that emerged as the season pro-
gressed is her toughness. The team went on a
run late in the season that was almost entire-
ly built on Danielle deciding that opponents
would not get through her midfield without
a fight. She grew into an excellent all-round
midfielder and I cant wait to see her play at
the next level. Bowling played for two years
at CSM. During her two-year career at CSM,
she started in 25 out of 26 games, had one
goal and six assists.
Bruce is in her third year at CSM, where
she is majoring in elementary education. She

That enabled us to spend more time attack-
ing their offensive zone with 33 shots on net
This year we [had] a deeper bench with
more options than they did. They focused
their top players against Brian Middledorfs
line of Eric Bennett and Michael Cross.
Our second line of Justin Lantz, Thomas
Bruening and Wesley Crofoot is as equally
strong as our first line. When it came down
to it, both our teams matched up well on our
toplines.
The differences came down to the 2nd
and 3rd line match ups.
Winning The Cup is truly an iconic mo-
ment in any sport. It is what all spectators
want to see their team do and that feeling is
only heightened when you are the coach.
They worked hard all season and to
witness them enjoying and realizing their
accomplishment is definitely a highlight I
wont forget. I am so proud to be part of their
team this season.
Northern now will advance to play in the
MSHL State tournament. They have been
placed at the high seed of 3rd following their
outstanding conference record.
The Patriots will begin their journey to
the championship on Friday, February 17th,
against the 14th seeded Walt Whitman team
at the Capital Clubhouse at 6 p.m.
graduated from Grace Christian Academy
in Waldorf. Kelly was an absolute rock for
CSM last year, McGrellis said. She has
fantastic size for her position and is as pure
an athlete as we had on the roster. While she
is very fast, she rarely has to use her speed
because her positioning is incredible, she
reads the game with amazing awareness
and approaches the art of defending with a
mature head, never lunging into a challenge.
When she inevitably does take the ball from
the opposition her ability to distribute quick-
ly and start attacks shines through, she has a
very good range of passing and can see ev-
ery pass on the field. She will be a valuable
player to her new program. At CSM, Bruce
played one year, starting in 14 games and
having one assist.
Lesko is in her second year at CSM, where
she is majoring in secondary education. She
is a graduate of Maurice J. McDonough
High School. Julia is a player we were ec-
static to have the privilege of seeing at a two-
year school, McGrellis said. She moves
with the ball like she was born to do it and
strikes it like a pro. Her unlimited ability is
coupled with incredible athleticism making
her a formidable player regardless of where
she is playing on the field. Her soccer brain
allowed me to move her around within our
system with the confidence that she would fit
in seamlessly. With that said, she is a forward
who will frighten defenders in the NCAA;
pace, IQ, power, and technique. She
is such an exciting prospect.
Lesko played for CSM for two
years. During those two seasons,
Lesko started in 26 out of 26 games.
She made 15 goals and seven as-
sists. This past season, five of her
goals were game-winners.
CSM is one of the only multi-
campus community colleges in
Maryland where you can take
classes online or on any campus
and play in your choice of 12 NJ-
CAA athletic programs. For more

 12 Feature Story
Calvert Restaurant Week is Here
Spiggy Cruises 29 Restaurant Options
By Dave Spigler
Feature Writer
With great anticipation, I awaited Calvert
Countys 2017 Calvert County Restau-
rant Week. Scheduled for Friday, Feb. 17
through Sunday, Feb. 27, this popular event
grows larger every year. This is the fifth
year this annual culinary extravaganza is
put on by the Calvert Countys Department
of Economic Development and Tourism
in conjunction with nearly 30 restaurants
from Dunkirk. The Beaches, Sunderland,
Prince Frederick, St. Leonard, Lusby, to
Solomons.
Many are old traditional favorites such as
Traders and The Rod and Reel in Chesa-
peake Beach, and Mama Lucias in Dunkirk
and Prince Frederick. Further south, The
Tavern in St. Leonard, the Ruddy Duck,
Boomerangs and Kingfishers are prepared
for the large crowds to enjoy their favorite
scrumptious meals that are carefully pre-
pared and offered at special prices.
Newer eateries such as The Brick in
Prince Frederick, Yo Mommas in Prince
Frederick and their new Pub in the Lusby
Towne Square, and the Pier in Solomons
recently opened under new ownership, are
providing special menus to attract the pub-
lic to their establishments to sample their
fares in hopes to introduce you to their din-
ing experience. I can hardly wait to grab my
fork and knife!
The idea to create a week of special
lunches and dinners at a reduced price is not
new. Many of the restaurants in Washing-
ton, DC, a town with more than a thousand
choices of places to eat traditional meals
from most every country of the world has
conducted this type of promotion for years.
These events there have grown popular as
many of DCs world class eateries with additional disposal income until they know
their famous chefs normally offer meals at
exorbitant prices that are well beyond the
average diners ability to pay. During DCs
promotion, many of their local citizens
there are given an opportunity to sample
meals they, nor I, would otherwise be able
to afford.
The Calvert County Times
Fortunately, this is not necessarily the
case in Southern Maryland. While the
choices of national dishes here are not as
extensive as those available up in the Big
City, the selection runs the gamut from
Japanese, to Thai, to Indian cuisine. And
of course, the restaurants specializing in
Italian or Mexican and American fare are
readily available. But the more popular and
most frequented establishments here in
Calvert are our many famous fine seafood
houses that draw on the regions bounty
and provide unique dining opportunities.
As stated in the Countys website, whether
your favorite fare is fresh seafood from our
river or our Bay, Italian cuisine or anything
in between, Restaurant Week has some-
thing to satisfy every palate.
The idea to showcase our county wide
restaurants with their creative cookery and
offer their delicious meals at budget friend-
ly prices during the month of February
did not come about by accident. It is well
known in the food industry that the months
following the Christmas and New Years
Holidays is a very slow period for many ob-
vious reasons and possibly a few that may
not be so clear.
The average American, including me,
has a tendency to overeat during the Holi-
day period, often putting on 5-8 pounds
during the time between Thanksgiving
and New Years Day. And, like me, most
of these same glutinous celebrants imme-
diately start the New Year with resolutions
to lose weight, avoid large meals, and not
to eat out. Many realize they need to get
ready to prepare their yearly state and fed-
eral Income taxes and vow not to spend any
whether they owe additional taxes or not!
But an even bigger reason may have to
do with the February weather, normally
very cold, damp and blustery. Its the kind
of weather that is not very conducive to
getting dressed to go out and brave the ele-
ments to have a meal out!
Fortunately for us, some pretty savvy
people in county government got together
with a few county restauranteurs with ex-
cess capacity and time on their hands and
decided one way to get folks out of their
warm, cozy cabins was to offer a delicious
selection of their specialties at really at-
tractive prices. This idea grew all over the
county to become a favorite, much antici-
pated winter event. It provides both locals
and visitors the opportunity to sample some
of our best restaurants offerings at excellent
prices. Many participating establishments
offer special menus for both lunch and din-
ner, but may not offer promotional prices
for both.
As an unofficial self-appointed Am-
bassador for Calvert County for the past
several years interested in bringing to life
with my writings all the wonderful unsung
heroes of the county as well as to highlight
the truly outstanding attractions that make
our county great, I readily volunteered for
this arduous assignment knowing I would
have to let out my belt a notch or two once I
was finished. So to get started, here is some
good advice to be considered:
Make reservations early as many
of the popular restaurants get
bookedup.
Not all establishments in the Coun-
ty are participating. When making
reservations ensure the restaurant is
involved in this promotion.
When making reservations check
and see if they are offering both
lunch and dinner menus.
Most restaurants have created spe-
cial menus for this celebration, how-
ever they will still offer their regular
fare during this time.
Restaurants reserve the right to
NOT allow these promotions to be
combined with discount coupons or
other sales promotions.
Prices and offerings are subject to
change depending on availability.
Tax, gratuity, beverages and alcohol
are not included in fixed price Res-
taurant Week menus.
With my friends Glen and Denise, my
wife Deb and I set out to sample a good
number of the offerings of these eateries to
prepare this difficult story. And with a
full stomach and a bottle of Pepto-Bismol
nearby, I put together this Guide to the
Participating Restaurants with the help of
the County Department of Economic De-
velopment and Tourism. Not only did it re-
quire tasting many of the various fares, this
job required research and investigations
that lasted well into the night!
For additional information or to make
reservations, phone numbers are provided.
Enjoy the regions delicious bounty with a
unique dining experience! These establish-
ments have something to satisfy everyones
palate at exceptional prices.

CSM Announces Kids &
Teen College Programs
Now is the time to plan for your childrens
activities during the summer months. Par-
ents who would like to give their child the
chance to have fun while learning should
consider the College of Southern Maryland
Kids & Teen College, a more than 30-year
proven program of enrichment opportuni-
ties designed to expand a students idea of
what is possible. CSMs Kids & Teen Col-
lege is the largest summer camp program
in Southern Maryland and has options for
children ages 5 to 14.
Registration opens Feb. 15 for approxi-
mately 300 classes being offered over eight
weeks at all CSM campuses Forensic
Science, Lego Math, Minecraft Design-
ers, Speaking Spanish, Junior Chef, Make
Your First 3-D Video Game, Digital Pho-
tography, Cupcake Wars and Spaceflight
Institute are just a few examples that show
the range of available classes.
We want everyone to have a great ex-
perience here, said John Terlesky, CSMs
youth program coordinator.
New classes this year that Terlesky ex-
pects to be particularly popular include
Virtual Reality, where participants will
create their own virtual worlds, explore
simulated environments and craft memo-
rable 3D experiences. Participants will re-
ceive a Google Cardboard viewer to take
home after the program. Cybersecurity,
which will be taught by CSM professors,
is another new class that is expected to be

popular with students, Terlesky said. Other
historically popular classes include those
involving STEAM (Science, Technology,
Engineering, Art and Mathematics), ro-
bot design, LEGO, Minecraft, theater and
cooking themes.
They fill up very quickly, Terlesky
said, encouraging parents to register early.
Approximately 20 percent of the courses
offered at CSMs Kids & Teen College this
year are technology-related classes provid-
ed through Black Rocket, a creative sci-
ences enrichment provider based in New
Jersey. Black Rocket assists camps with
project-based programs that foster 21st cen-
tury skills like peer learning, creativity and
technology awareness. The Black Rocket
classes dont end after the week-long CSM
session. Students are given links to contin-
ue their learning at home through an online
training portal. The Virtual Reality class is
an example of a Black Rocket class.
The kids really respond to project-
based learning, said Angela Russo, di-
rector of operations for Black Rocket. It
makes it real for them We believe ev-
ery human being is unique in their abil-
ity and talents. Black Rockets mission is
to help ignite, unleash and enhance these
distincttalents.
Angie Rohrer is a sixth-grade math
teacher at Esperanza Middle School
throughout the school year. Rohrer believes
that students of every age should take ad-
vantage of the summer months to continue
to expand their math and science skills, as
well other interests, just in a different way.
Rohrer is the supervisor for Black Rocket
classes in Southern Maryland and an en-
thusiastic advocate.
I think in the summer they can really
have fun and explore, Rohrer said. She ob-
served the students responses to last years
Black Rocket classes as CSMs Kids &
Teen College and noted the enthusiasm of
the students. The kids just come into the
class so excited, she said. I love seeing
kids love learning.
Rohrer also said that Black Rocket class-
es come with phenomenal technical sup-
port, which inspires students creativity,
imagination and curiosity in technology.
Rohrer encouraged area parents and their
children to review the classes being offered
Library Undertakes
Facilities Master Plan
To keep pace with ongoing changes in
technology, community demographics and
the world in general, a Facilities Master
Plan for Calvert Library is being undertak-
en. An outside consultant has been hired
to create a plan which will ensure that the
library continues to make the best deci-
sions for the community regarding library
services and facilities.
An essential component of the process is
community input, which will be collected
through Community Input Meetings, focus
groups, stakeholder meetings and a survey.
The 14-question survey is available now in
English athttp://bit.ly/clplansurveyand in
Spanish athttp://bit.ly/clplansurveyspanish.
There is also a link on the library website
at CalvertLibrary.info. Please participate
in the survey and/or one of the scheduled
community meetings.
The library obtained a grant for this
project through the state Division of Li-
brary Development and Services and has
contracted with Providence Associates to
gather data, facilitate the community en-
gagement process and produce a final re-
port. Providence is utilizing the services
of RRMM Lukmire Architects to analyze
Calvert Librarys current facilities. The
system-wide study will result in recom-
mendations about library sizes, features,
locations, updates and critical services with
an eye to flexibility for long-term success.
Calvert Library serves different pur-
poses for different members of our com-
munity. Some parents of young children
use it to support the critical first five years
of their childs brain development through
Storytime classes, Imagination Station
play and lots of books. Parents also come
to the library to socialize with other adults
and learn about other styles of parenting.
Children come to find books to feed their
imaginations and attend events on a wide
variety of intriguing topics. Teens work on
group projects, check out video games, mu-
sic or movies or hang out with their friends.
Adults meet with clients, check email, re-
search upcoming travels, find their next
read or attend a workshop to improve their
quality of life. Entrepreneurs come to learn
how to create a business plan, network,
build a client base or get financing. Seniors
come to play games to keep their minds
sharp or learn how to get the most from
a new smartphone. Some commuters just
want audio books and more audio books.

and register for something that interests
them, even if it is something that they have
no previous knowledge in. Kids dont nec-
essarily have to have prerequisite knowl-
edge to benefit from our classes, she said.
Dont be afraid to sign up for something
that interests you. Well have a greattime.
CSMs Kids & Teen College features
two sessions, the first is from 9 a.m. to noon
and the second is from 1 to 4 p.m. There is
a supervised lunch hour in between the two
sessions for those students participating in
both the morning and afternoon sessions.
For working parents, CSM offers the op-
tions of extended day supervision of stu-
dents from 7 to 9 a.m. and/or from 4 to 6
p.m. for an extra fee.
Some library customers rarely come into
the library but have all their needs served
by downloadable books and movies and
online chat with a reference librarian.
Many people prefer to get their questions
answered in person by a librarian, and oth-
ers prefer to do their own treasure hunting.
Some come for solitude, some for learning,
some for socializing.
Providence Associates hopes to hear
from hundreds of county residents whether
it be by survey or face-to-face meetings.
Community Input Meetings are scheduled
throughout the county. The first will be at
Calvert Pines in Prince Frederick at 7pm
on Tuesday, February 28. Wednesday,
March 1, there will be a meeting 2-4pm
at the Northeast Community Center. That
evening at 7pm, there will be a session at
Dunkirk Fire Hall. The final Community
Input Meeting will be held at the Southern
Community Center in Lusby on March 8
at 7pm. These meetings provide an oppor-
tunity to share thoughts about what library
services and facilities the community needs
and wants. Focus and stakeholder groups
will be targeted to a variety of populations
served by the library.
The first focus group will be with teens
on February 16 at Calvert Library Prince
Frederick at 5pm. Business leaders will
meet at the Chamber of Commerce in
Prince Frederick at 8am on Wednesday,
March 1. Healthcare, nonprofits and other
community builders will meet at the Calvert
Memorial Hospital Classroom 1 at 8am on
Thursday, March 2. On the same day, par-
ents of preschoolers will meet at Calvert Li-
brary Prince Frederick at 10:30am. At 3pm
that afternoon, the education community,
including homeschoolers, will meet at the
Board of Education. The final focus group
will be for active adults and will meet at
2pm on Friday, March 3, at Calvert Library
Prince Frederick. If you are interested in
attending any of the focus or stakeholder
groups, please RSVP to Robyn Truslow
at rtruslow@somd.lib.md.uswith which
group you would like to attend. There will
be light refreshments served at all of the
events. The whole community is strongly
encouraged to participate in this process.

Mornings with Mommy
Coming in March
Is it fun? Or, is it educational? Its a little
bit of both. Its called Mornings with Mom-
my -- educational play dates with Mommy
(or Dads or other caregivers) and infants
through pre-kindergarten.
Shepherd of the Bay Lutheran Church is
launching this innovative new activity be-
ginning March 7 and running every rst
and third Tuesday of the month. Cost for
each session is $5 per family. Sessions run
from 10 to 11 a.mn. at the church at 9463
HG Trueman Road in Lusby.
Mornings with Mommy isnt pre-school
and it isnt childcare. Its something differ-
ent. Mornings with Mommy is a fun way
for mothers (and fathers) to enjoy activities
with their children and meet other parents.
There will be age appropriate activities for
infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. And the
best part is that the church members do all
the planning. All you have to do is sign up
and show up.
The Calvert County Times
Moms can mingle with each other and
enjoy activities with their children includ-
ing arts and crafts, sensory table, annel
stories and story time, music, educational
toys and a snack.
Children love to play. They naturally
pour all their attention into play activities.
When adults can guide that energy with
educational themes and group interaction
amazing things happen. At Mornings with
Mommies you will be there to share in your
childs discovery.
Rachel Olson, wife of the churchs Pas-
tor Josh Olson, is coordinator of Mornings
with Mommies. She has a Bachelor of Sci-
ence in Education and is a mother herself.

Son to Share Fathers
WWII POW Experience
Local resident Jon Frank will share his
Fathers story and artifacts from the Battle
of Bataan and 3 years as a Japanese Pris-
oner of War at Calvert Library Prince Fred-
erick on March 14, from 7 to 8:30 p.m. The
collection is scheduled for donation to the
National WW II Museum on April 5, com-
memorating the 75th anniversary of the
Battles nal days and surrender on April 9,
1942. This was the largest surrender of U.S.
Armed Forces in history.
Col. Charles B. Frank served on active
duty from 1941 until his retirement at Fort
Meade in 1967.
When my Mother passed away in 2015,
I assembled the family documents related
to both my father and mothers war time
service. The materials have been in our
family all our lives. While cataloguing and
digitizing the letters, orders, telegrams and
other items saved by my father and grand-
mother, I was also researching the events
and history of the defense on Bataan and
the role played by the US Army Veterinary
Corps at that time, explained Jon Frank.
17
1LT Frank was the veterinarian to Bat-
tery A of the 23rd Field Artillery (PS), a
pack unit with 48 horses and 80 mules in
the eld following the attack on Pearl Har-
bor. As the battle progressed, the unit was
destroyed and he fullled other duties in-
cluding replacement corral operation and
food inspection.
Col. Frank was a POW from April 9,
1942 until liberation on September 7,
1945. He survived several near misses
including a 49-day transfer from Manila
to Japan involving three ships, multiple at-
tacks and mishaps resulting in the death of
83% of the 1619 men making the journey
on the Oryoku Maru.
Col. Frank was awarded the Bronze Star
and Purple Heart for his war time service.
