Town of Laurel Welcomes You Dear Citizens and Visitors, Red states, blue states, conservative, liberal, common core curriculum, taxes, entitlements, Obamacare. Words and concepts like these divide us as a nation, but on this day other words unite Americans. Those words are enshrined in our Declaration of Independence: “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.”

We are Americans living in a different age than that of our Founding Fathers.

We have some complex issues to face, but guided by those principles given to us in our founding documents

I am confident this generation and future generations will continue to add to the exceptional nature of this great democracy.

On behalf of my colleagues on the Town Council and the staff and employees of the Town of Laurel, I extend a hearty Laurel welcome to our residents and visitors. This is the 20th Anniversary Independence Day Celebration. The Independence Day Committee has done a great job planning an exciting and fun day for the whole family. The morning parade always jumpstarts the wave of patriotism that prevails all day long. Vendors will have delicious foods and desserts and perhaps that special item you are looking for. Children of all ages can enjoy the rides and games at the Carnival on the Central Avenue Green. The crowd pleasing Bo

Laurel is a town in transition. Change is everywhere. Our major apartment complexes have all been remodeled. New schools at a cost of over 100 million dollars are under construction. Phase one of our USDA project which will extend water and sewer services to the Route 13 corridor will be completed by December. Watch for the Laurel name and two Bulldogs to appear on the new east water tower on Route 9. Recreate in one of our fine parks located along picturesque Broad Creek.

I believe you will quickly see why almost 4,000 of us are proud to call Laurel “home.” And we are working hard everyday to make one of the finest small towns in Delaware even better!

Have a great day, but please remember freedom is not free. Some gave all so that we can have this family celebration today. Never forget them!

Laurel celebration places emphasis on family fun

By Tony E. Windsor The Town of Laurel is ready to welcome all to a day of patriotic reflection and an all-around good time. The town’s celebration of July 4 has become a local tradition and this year is no exception.

According to Laurel Town Manager Jamie Smith, who spearheads the planning for the event each year, the itinerary for the celebration provides something for the entire family.

She said a kickoff block party will be held beginning at 7 p.m.

on July 3 in Janosik Park. The block party will run until 10 p.m. and feature the band “Over Time.” The event is free for all ages.

The July 4 festivities will start with a Prayer Breakfast t Abbott’s Grille on Broadcreek.

This will begin at 7:30 a.m.

Tickets for the Prayer Breakfast are available at Laurel Town Hall and Abbott’s Grille, Laurel.

The Laurel Fourth of July parade will start at 10 a.m. and run along Central Avenue.

Lineup will begin at 9 a.m. at Evergreen Drive. Smith said

there is still time to have an entry in the parade and registration cutoff is June 28.

The annual Rod and Custom Car Show will be held along Front Street from 10 a.m. till 2 p.m. The carnival will begin at 10:30 a.m. on July 4, but will officially open to the public on July 1 and run through July 5.

A special patriotic addition to this year’s Fourth of July event is a reading of the Declaration of Independence by Laurel resident Larry Calhoun, who will be doing the reading in character as founding father and

architect of the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson. Beginning at 12:30 p.m. a competition among area municipalities will take place with the official “Mayor’s Cornhole Competition.”

The annual Little Miss Laurel Independence Day pageant will take place at the Bandstand in Market Square Park from 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m., and “Crabby the Clown” will be entertaining event goers in Janosik Park from noon till 3 p.m.

At 1:30 p.m. in Market Square Park a Cornhole Tournament will be held and the public is invited to take part. Teams can register at an entry cost of $25 per team. The winning team will receive $100. Registration

forms are available at Laurel Town Hall. Registration can be done the day of the event as well.

The public is also invited to take part in an old-fashion Pie Eating Contest. The competition will start at 1 p.m. and be held at Janosik Park, along Front Street.

Beginning at 2 p.m. the gospel sounds of vocalists Dean Adkins, Gloria Holland, Laura Mitchell, Galen Queen and Sherri Ridgeway will entertain event attendees. At 3:30 p.m. the band “Uprizing” will take to the Market Square Bandstand, followed at 5 p.m. by the band “Running With Scissors.”

The Bo Dickerson Band will begin at 7 p.m. at the Market

Square Bandstand and play until around dusk when a spectacular fireworks display will close out the day’s festivities.

Smith said donations to help offset the costs of the very impressive fireworks display are still being accepted and thus far contributions have been very generous.

The donations toward the fireworks enable Laurel to avoid using any town funds to pay for the display. Canisters for contributions are located in businesses throughout Laurel.

For more information about the Fourth of July Celebration or to learn how to participate, call Smith at Laurel Town Hall, 302-875-2277.

Showing respect for the flag The following article relaying the importance of respecting the flag of the United States of America was submitted by Laura Rogers of the UPS Store in Seaford.

The federal flag code says the universal custom is to display the U.S. flag from sunrise to sunset on buildings and stationary flagstaffs in the open, but when a patriotic effect is desired the flag may be displayed 24 hours a day, if properly illuminated during the hours of darkness. Also, the U.S. flag should not be displayed when the weather is inclement, except when an all-weather flag is displayed.

DISPLAYING THE FLAG On Same Staff U.S. flag at peak, above any other flag.

Decoration Never use the flag for decoration. Use bunting with the blue on top, then white, then red.

Salute All persons present in uniform should render the military salute. Members of the armed forces and veterans who are present but not in uniform may render the military salute. All other persons present should face the flag and stand at attention with their right hand over the heart, or if applicable, remove their headdress with their

Half Staff On special days, the flag may be flown at half-staff. On Memorial Day it is flown at half-staff until noon and then raised. On September 11 (Patriot Day) and December 7 (Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day) the flag should be flown at half staff from sunrise until sunset. Upon the death of great individuals or current or former government officials, the President of the United States can direct that the flag be flown from the half-staff position “as a mark of respect to their memory.” When respect is thus shown upon the death of

Laurel’s Annual Old-Fashioned Independence Day Celebration 2014

current or former United States government officials, the flag is flown at half staff according to the following: 30 Days from the death of the President or a former President 10 Days from the day of death of: The Vice President A sitting or former Supreme Court Chief Justice The Speaker of the House of Representatives From the day of death to the day of Internment of: An Associate Justice of the Supreme Court The Secretary of an Executive or Military Department A Former Vice President The Governor of a State, territory, or possession of the United States On the day of death and the following day for a Member of

Congress Whenever a present or former official of State Government dies, the Governor of that State can direct that the United States Flag be flown at half-staff in respect to their memory.

Do not let the flag touch the ground.

Do not fly flag upside down unless there is an emergency.

Do not carry the flag flat, or carry things in it.

Do not use the flag as clothing.

Do not store the flag where it can get dirty.

Do not use it as a cover.

Do not fasten it or tie it back.

Always allow it to fall free.

Do not draw on, or otherwise mark the flag.

Page 11

FLAG DISPOSAL: Tattered or damaged flags should never be flown and should be properly burned and buried.

1. The flag should be folded in its customary manner.

2. It is important that the fire be fairly large and of sufficient intensity to ensure complete burning of the flag.

3. Place the flag on the fire.

4. The individual(s) can come to attention, salute the flag, recite the Pledge of Allegiance and have a brief period of silent reflection.

5. After the flag is completely consumed, the fire should then be safely extinguished and the ashes buried.

6. Please make sure you are conforming to local/state fire codes or ordinances.

Happy Fourth of July, Laurel!

Laurel Recreational opportunities

By Lynn R. Parks Recreation in Laurel centers on water. More specifically, the waters of the Nanticoke River watershed, which are contained in the numerous ponds and creeks that flow through the area.

Recreation opportunities begin at Trap Pond State Park, one of the oldest state parks in Delaware.

Trap Pond, and nearby Trussum Pond, are home to the northernmost natural stand of baldcypress trees in North America.

Two of the trees in that stand are the largest trees in Delaware.

Forestry officials estimate the age of one of those trees to be 750 years.

Trap Pond was created in the late 1700s to power a sawmill during the harvest of large baldcypress from the area.

The Federal Government pur-

chased the pond and surrounding farmland during the 1930s and the Civilian Conservation Corps began to develop the area for recreation.

Trap Pond became one of Delaware’s first state parks in 1951.

Before the pond was created, the area was home to freshwater wetlands, some of which still survive in the park.

Wooden walkways allow visitors to explore the wetlands, as well as the surrounding forest.

The 4.9-mile Boundary Trail circles the park’s 90-acre pond.

There are also bike trails and horse trails.

A treat for bird watchers, the park is home to great blue herons, owls, hummingbirds, warblers, bald eagles and pileated woodpeckers.

For those who prefer a more watery experience, rowboats, pedal boats, surf bikes, canoes

One of the streams that flows into Trap Pond has been marked as a wilderness canoe trail, giving another access to the swamp’s interior.

A boat launching ramp can accommodate small motorized boats; anglers on the water or shore have been known to land largemouth bass, pickerel, crappie and bluegills.

The park is also home to the Baldcypress Nature Center, which features a variety of displays and programs.

Picnic areas overlook the pond and three pavilions may be reserved for group events. There are volleyball courts and horseshoe pits, as well as a playground and
