(May 3, 2013) A local gym owner says he has yet to receive word from the city on what he sees as a massive encroachment onto his business investment, although there appears to be no hard legal line that prevents the city from entering the private marketplace.

City balances budget with more cuts; skate park unrest evident Council axes additional $300k to drop tax rate to .472, keep reserve stable ZACK HOOPES ■ Staff Writer (May 3, 2013) When “volunteering” is done by a third party, it typically indicates a less-than-pleasant process. “I sent out an email to our departments asking them to volunteer things they thought could be reduced or cut [from the 2013-2014 budget],” Town of Ocean City Budget Manager Jennie Knapp said this week. “And then I went ahead and pointed out some things I thought they could volunteer.” But in the city’s case, it appears that blood has been squeezed from the proverbial fiscal turnip. “Mrs. Knapp has completed her blood drive,” chuckled City Manager David Recor at Tuesday’s city council session. “It appears we are now at one penny above constant yield, and the fund balance is at 15 percent.” During budget hearings two weeks ago, it became apparent that these two stipulations regarding the city’s property tax rate and the health of its standing cash reserve would be the major benchmarks in planning for the 2014 fiscal

year. But as of two weeks ago, the city was $300,000 shy of getting there. Knapp’s final round of cuts, presented to the city this week, would close that gap through several dozen small reductions, which include cutting trash truck painting, EMS staffing allowances, and seven of the Ocean City Police Department’s oft-discussed “Tasers.” But even with these reductions, the city is likely to still face fiscal pressure from those affected by service cuts already made, namely users of the town’s Ocean Bowl Skate Park, which is slated to be closed on weekdays during the school year, as well as for the months of January and February. A petition contesting the cuts, started by Worcester Prep senior Mike Durkin, had amassed nearly 350 signatures as of Wednesday. Local skaters also say they have plans to attend city meetings next month in protest. But the council defended its plan this week, with Councilman and Recreation and Parks Commission Chair Joe Mitrecic saying that the service reduction was being falsely portrayed as an arbitrary cut. Under the Recreation and Parks Department’s initial budget, the Ocean Bowl was already scheduled to be closed on Wednesdays in the off-season, and would open up at 2 p.m. the other four weekdays. This would leave only three or

four hours of daylight for skating, which the commission had deemed to not be worth the expense. “It’ll be open for all school children’s vacation days,” Mitrecic said. “You’re losing 16 hours [per week] at the most … that came out of a recommendation from the department to the committee before we ever talked about cuts.” Council President Lloyd Martin submitted that skaters’ habits were changing. “My son skateboards, and his favorite place now is the Boardwalk,” Martin said. “I’m not saying they don’t use the skate park, but times are moving along. They like to street skate now.” However, Councilman Brent Ashley, who had voted against any further cuts during budget sessions, claimed that this argument was a case of the city creating problems for the sake of solutions. “Last year, we allowed the skateboarders to be on the Boardwalk, and then this year we say not as many people are using the skate park,” Ashley said. “Well, of course they’re on the Boardwalk. That’s where we told them to go. It just doesn’t make sense.” Ashley also said the $20,000 the city is estimated to save from the park is not dissimilar in value to the grants to other outside agencies that the city has already awarded. For example, he noted that the county’s Cricket Center, which advocates

for abused children, will receive up to $14,333 from the city this year. “If it comes to my child being able to skateboard on a Tuesday afternoon when it’s 32 degrees outside, or my child being physically or sexually abused, it’s a pretty easy decision,” countered Council Secretary Mary Knight. However, the crux of the skate park issue, which council did not address this week, is the fact that the initial service cuts made were a result of the city’s own mandate regarding federal insurance liability. Early this year, the city indicated that it would be facing a financial and personnel crunch from the federal Affordable Care Act, popularly known as “Obamacare.” The law will require, as of January 2014, that any employer with 50 or more employees provide health insurance to any worker who is considered full-time and non-seasonal. Under the ACA, the definition of such an employee is one who is “reasonably expected” to work 30 or more hours per week. The IRS has advised employers that any employee who works a total of 1,560 hours or more in 2013 – i.e., 30 hours for 52 weeks – will thus have a reasonable expectation of getting insurance for 2014, unless they work for less than four months.

Sea Harrier to headline OC Air Show, June 8-9

health insurance to what it considers to be full-time year-round employees. But what the town sees as full-time is no longer what the federal government sees as full-time. To get around this, city department heads have been instructed to use “management initiatives” to keep uninsured employees’ hours under the 1,560 limit, in order to avoid having to add them to its insurance pool. The town has identified 40 employees who worked close to or over the annual limit last year, and are on track to do so again this year. Most – including several Ocean Bowl employees – are slated to have their hours drastically reduced. Hours at the skate park will not be compensated for, although other areas such as public works and convention center maintenance will make up the difference with additional part-time employees. Knapp said the city will have to assume that some of the affected employees will not be able to stay with the town if their hours are thus limited. “It means we may lose some of the employees that we have,” she said at a recent budget session.

(May 3, 2013) Just because the federal government’s sequester has grounded armed forces flight teams doesn’t mean the roar of jet engines won’t be heard at the OC Air Show on June 89. Air show organizers announced this week that the only civilian-owned Harrier jet in the world will be flying over the beach and demonstrating its capabilities to the crowd. The Sea Harrier is known for vertical take offs and landings and can fly more than 600 mph. The only privately-owned Harrier in the country is flown by Art Nalls, a former Marine test pilot and graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy. “Lovers of jets will not be disappointed,” said Bryan S. Lilley, president of the OC Air Show. “The Harrier jet is going to get your attention.” The Harrier will headline an all-star, all-civilian lineup that includes ace pilot Chuck Aaron and the Red Bull Helicopter. Aaron is the only civilian pilot in the country licensed to fly helicopter aerobatics and you’ll see him doing rolls, backflips and stalls just like the airplanes do. The show will also feature aerobatic pilot

Council monitors street used by day-trippers,not condo residents Continued from Page 1A

condominium on 146th Street who addressed the council’s budget on Tuesday. “We’d like to know why it wasn’t appropriate to let us know your plans on this ahead of time.” As part of its overall move to boost revenue for the upcoming 2013-2014 fiscal year, the council has approved a number of new parking meters – in the form of Cale-brand electronic ticket machines – to be placed around the resort. One of the locations set to be metered is 146th Street, which is city property on its southern side and then, across its median barrier, becomes Fenwick Island. The city attempted to put meters on the street two years ago, but was met with similar opposition, and eventually backed out of the deal, even though it had already repaved the street and installed meter mounts with the intention of having paid parking, much to the annoyance of city staff who had done the work. “We paved that street with the objective to put paid parking there,” said Council President Lloyd Martin. “I don’t want to say that we’re singling you out. But I’ve been watching that street fill up with Fenwick Island residents over the years.” Parking is already paid on the Delaware side, which is packed with a much older housing stock and less gen-

erous parking. But, as Balkcom pointed out, parking spaces in the Ocean View’s lot are deeded to individual unit owners unit the building’s covenant. Those with less room have friends and relatives park on the street, a common practice in most large buildings where street parking is widely available. “We feel it will unfairly disadvantage us relative to other condos,” Balkcom said. “Those of us that rent units will lose business.” But much of the debate about paid parking has centered on the larger issue of what Balkcom described, in a recent letter to the city and the press, as “the obsession the council seems to have with ‘day trippers.’” It has long been the city’s assertion that it needs to collect more money from those who come to town and use its free beaches and amenities, but do not contribute to the economy via hotel revenue and the room tax that goes along with that. Yet Balkcom, and several other residents of 146th, have alleged that this strategy has all the precision of a sawedoff shotgun. Given that many of its summer residents come in from out-of-state, it is impossible to ascertain who on 146th Street is living in the Ocean View and who is on a day trip. Council members have maintained, however, that paid parking encourages more rapid turnover and keeps day-trip-

pers from occupying one space all day. “I’ve had people come to me and ask to have paid parking in front of their condo buildings, because of the day-trippers as well,” Martin said. Further, as Mayor Rick Meehan observed, the imposition of paid parking on 146th Street for condo overflow would not be unlike the situation the city has had or years at “high rise row” just above 94th Street, where the city has municipal parking lots on the west side of Coastal Highway to compensate for the deficiency of the oceanfront condo towers. “They’re happy to even have those spaces, but they have to pay for them as well,” Meehan said. Councilman Brent Ashley continued to be the only official with a direct objection to the parking measures. While he said he was supportive of new revenues

OCEAN CITY COUNCIL BRIEFS ZACK HOOPES ■ Staff Writer (May 3, 2013) Ocean City Council discussed the following matters during its April 30, 2013 session:

PW inventors thanked City Risk Manager Eric Lagstrom wished to publicly acknowledge a group of city maintenance employees for their innovative efforts to reduce injuries by creating a hoist for Boardwalk benches. “As you know, we’ve had an increased number of worker’s compensation claims,” Lagstrom said, adding that several recent in-

juries have resulted from moving of Boardwalk benches, which weigh roughly 200 pounds each. In response, employees Vince Holloway, John Morole, Terry Steimer, and Fred Wimbrow designed and fabricated a trailer-mounted hoist that allows a single person to load and transport the benches with ease. The city’s Boardwalk bench program has been highly successful since its inception, allowing private parties to buy benches and dedicate them in appreciation or memoriam. However, the 690 benches currently on the boards have become an increasing logistical burden for the city’s Public Works department, which must relocate them for special events, Continued on Page 17A

to close the city’s budget gaps, Ashley said he feared that paid parking targeting day-trippers would do more harm than good. “The difference between us and our competition [in other resorts] is that we can market how much free parking we have,” Ashley said. “You’re not looking at that much revenue here versus the possible damage.” After Balkcom addressed the council, local activist and Delmarva Condo Managers’ Association President Joe Groves asked the council for a compromise, suggesting that paid parking be imposed only at the spots on the very end of the street, which non-resident beachgoers are more likely to value. “More day-trip people will pay for those spots,” Groves said. “There’s got to be a compromise here.”

Two-week Restaurant Week promo begins May 5 Businesses in OC, WOC to offer lunch and dinner options for as little as $10 LISA CAPITELLI ■ Assistant Editor (May 3, 2013) Approximately 30 resort establishments are signed up to participate in Ocean City’s seventh annual spring Restaurant Week, which begins Sunday and run through May 19. Restaurant Week organizers made a few changes last year and, for the most part, the new format was appealing to both diners and restaurateurs. During each of the first four years of spring Restaurant Week, resort businesses offered two- and three-course lunch and dinner menus, featuring respective $20 and $30 dishes, for one week. Promoters listened to suggestions from diners and restaurateurs who wanted to extend the 2011 promotion from one week to two. In October 2011, during the fall edition of Restaurant Week, the two-week promotion included more options for the dining public. Organizers created different price points of $10, $20, $30 and $40 in order to include a wider range of restaurants and give diners additional options.

“Bonus Bites & Beverages” was a new feature added to the promotion that offered participants something extra, such as a free glass of wine, appetizer or dessert. Since the different price points were well received, the 2012 spring promotion mimicked the fall event. Twenty-two establishments participated and it was a success, according to Susan Jones, executive director of the Hotel-Motel-Restaurant Association, organizer of Restaurant Week. The 2013 spring promotion will also run for two weeks and feature $10, $20, $30 and $40 price points. The objective of Restaurant Week is to bring business to resort eateries and to introduce diners to places they haven’t visited before. The goal also is to stimulate the local economy by encouraging people to dine out, especially on weekdays. “It’s an opportunity to dine out on a

budget. [Diners] will know what they’re going to spend before they go out,” Jones said. Diners can view Restaurant Week menus at www.oceancityrestaurantweek. com or call the Hotel-Motel-Restaurant Association at 410-289-6733. One or two price points are being offered at most restaurants. Some restaurants will not feature the promotion on Fridays and Saturdays. Phillips restaurants have participated in the event for several years, according to Michelle Torres, marketing director for Phillips Foods Inc. Phillips Crab House on 21st Street and Phillips Seafood House on 141st Street will offer three courses for $30. “Restaurant Week gives potential guests the opportunity to try new or be reintroduced to restaurants. As a participating restaurant, this promotion drives traffic during a slower time frame,” Torres said. Fager’s Island on 60th Street has been a Restaurant Week participant for a number of years, as well. “People want to try new things, new places, so we want to be involved in that. We are still working on the menu, but the main idea will be to feature some new variations of some or our longtime standard favorites,” General Manager Kevin Myers said earlier this week.

Legal power to compete with private sector not always clear Continued from Page 1A

this week. “But we’ve actually had a lot of people in our gym come up to us and tell us it was a really good letter.” The new Northside Park facility features nine pieces of gym equipment under a rain canopy and will be open to the public year-round. It was paid for last year with an $119,000 grant from the Maryland Department of Natural Resources. Although the outdoor area does not offer nearly the same amenities as China’s gym, it will have a draw, he fears, towards the short-stay visitors who make up the bulk of Gold’s Gym’s summer profits by purchasing $12 day passes. “Now all the sudden they have a place that’s less than 10 blocks away, and they can go over there and save themselves 12 bucks a day,” China said. In fact, he pointed out, pulling business out of the private sector seems to be the city’s exact intent, given that the city’s own plug for the new facility, published in various outlets including this newspaper, is that the area “provides an opportunity for individuals and small groups to build fitness in a public setting without having to pay a fee or membership.” China said he fears that the city’s stance of filling the market itself will discourage private reinvestment.

“Since we bought [the gym], we’ve dumped all this money into it and renovated,” China said. “We’ve essentially doubled the business in the years we’ve had it. And our property taxes have gone up nearly $4,000.” However, according to City Solicitor Guy Ayres, it would be difficult to make the legal argument that the city is stepping outside of its bounds as long as it is providing amenities for the public welfare. “I’m not aware of anything that prohibits something like that [the exercise facility],” Ayres said. “The town gets its powers through its charter. Maryland has what’s known as an Express Powers Act, which authorizes cities to do certain things and pretty much binds municipalities to do those things in the act or those things which are necessary to carry out their express powers.” Ayres pointed out that the city routinely offers amenities at its events that arguably compete with private business, but also offer a unique position in encouraging economic growth. Where the line ends essentially depends on how far the city is willing to take it. “We’re not precluded from selling food and beverages, and we often do,” he said, “but opening up a municipal McDonald’s franchise might be a different story.”

City moves forward with new beach patrol headquarters on Talbot ZACK HOOPES ■ Staff Writer (May 3, 2013) The city appears to have finally scared itself into movement on a new headquarters building for the Ocean City Beach Patrol, as the City Council this week saw a presentation of the downtown building’s dire conditions and went on to approve funds for design work on a new site. Those conditions, according to extensive photographic evidence from City Engineer Terry McGean, include structural collapse, peeling asbestos, and chronic water damage to offices and even restroom facilities that have all the ambiance of a Turkish prison. “I don’t want to overplay it, but it’s an eyesore … that doesn’t have any architectural value at all in downtown Ocean City,” said Mayor Rick Meehan. “It needs extensive repair and it’s not going to stop. It’s going to continue and get worse. At some point, we’re going to have to make this decision.” The OCBP has been housed in its current complex, located on the corner of Dorchester Street and Philadelphia Avenue, since the buildings were abandoned by the Ocean City Police Department in 1993. “It was deemed unsuitable by the police department back in 1993 when we built the public safety building at 65th Street,” McGean said. The OCPD still uses the

lower level of the main building to store and repair the bicycles used by downtown patrol officers in the summer. Continuing hard use on a building that is already two decades past the nominal end of its life has caused a number of issues. “In their garage area, where they keep their four-wheelers and wave runners, the fire protection system is no longer working and it is a wooden building,” McGean said. “The upstairs storage also wasn’t designed for that and I have some structural concerns there as well.” Further, the laminate finish on the building’s asbestos siding is starting to peel, exposing the hazardous fibers. Renovation would be difficult, McGean said, since any extensive repair to the building would require it to be brought up to the FEMA flood code followed by the city. This would mandate the entire structure be raised, or have its lower levels flood-proofed. Instead, McGean proposed, the city could build a new structure exactly one block north of the old one, on land currently owned by the Ocean City Development Corporation, the city-backed non-profit that supports urban redevelopment. The land is currently a gravel parking lot. “We purchased it with the intent of putting a new development on it, which is why it’s just a temporary lot now” said OCDC Executive Director Glenn Irwin. “We’re very pleased that the city is moving

forward on this, because we needed to find someone who was interested in doing a project there anyway. It works out well.” McGean’s preliminary outlay for the construction would allow for a three-story, 10,700-square-foot building with an estimated cost of $2 million. Before moving into any more detail, McGean asked that the council allocate $165,000 to hire an architect to do a full design work-up. The council approved the measure five-to-one, with Councilwoman Margaret Pillas absent and Councilman Brent Ashley in opposition. Ashley said he would prefer to see the city do a full location study to judge whether the OCDC lot was the best logistical option. “We looked at this property, we looked at the property we have at First Street and St. Louis Avenue, we’ve looked near fire headquarters and at some properties that are privately owned, but we felt at the staff level that the Beach Patrol really liked this location,” McGean said. “The site is very visible to everyone who comes downtown,” said Councilman Dennis Dare. “It’s an opportunity for the town to show what can be done with redevelopment downtown.” To that end, moving the OCBP will go a long way towards enabling the city’s long-discussed “model block” project. This would entail the city and/or OCDC acquiring all the property in the block between Dorchester and Somerset Streets

and Baltimore and Philadelphia Avenues – where the OCBP headquarters is currently located – in order to facilitate a coordinated redevelopment project or projects that would transform the space into a model for downtown renewal. “It gives us an opportunity to take the model block and have it ready when the opportunity comes to develop there,” Dare said. “That’s the first thing that anybody says about the model block, that we’ll have to find a place for the Beach Patrol first.” McGean suggested that the city could also remove several of the other buildings it owns on the block at the same time the current OCBP building is razed. Most of these buildings are currently leased to OCDC for summer employee housing, but their absence would allow the city to install a larger, temporary parking lot on the block. “We’ll still need to discuss if any or all three of those [buildings that OCDC uses] are going to be in the mix to make it a bigger lot,” Irwin said. The city will take the $165,000 in design fees out of its standing reserve, and replace the money in a bond issuance planned for later this year, something that Ashley also said prevented him from voting for the project. “We’re getting really close to $100 million in bonds,” he said. “Our revenues last year were flat, but our net debt increased by $14.3 million. Same revenue, more debt doesn’t make a good equation.”

Beach patrol to take part in rescue ocean demo NANCY POWELL ■ Staff Writer (May 3, 2013) Approximately six members of the Ocean City Beach Patrol will play the part of swimmers in distress during an ocean rescue demonstration in front of the Clarion Hotel on Sunday. The simulated rescue will be part of the annual state Emergency Medical Services conference. The Maryland Institute for Emergency Medical Services Systems is responsible for overseeing commercial ambulance licenses, establishing medical protocols for the state’s emergency medical technicians, paramedics and first responders, dispatching medevac helicopters and monitoring the status of hospitals around the state. During the 2011 conference in Ocean City, the Beach Patrol conducted a live

rescue demonstration in front of the Clarion. In addition to the Beach Patrol, the rescue scenario involved Natural Resources Police, the U.S. Coast Guard and the Ocean City Fire Department’s rescue swimmers. Because of the demonstration’s popularity, the Beach Patrol was asked to organize another one. This year, a Maryland State Police medevac helicopter, with a rescue swimmer aboard, will participate by hovering above the ocean, but no swimmers will be lifted into it. The helicopter will not be one of the new fleet of helicopters for Maryland State Police. Those helicopters have dual engines, but the older ones, such as the one to be used Sunday, do not. “It will provide close air support,” Beach Patrol Capt. Butch Arbin said. “It is risky to the crew and equipment to use it for practice.”

Spectators are welcome to watch the demonstration from the beach. The demonstration is scheduled for 11:20 – 11:35 a.m. If time permits, members of the Ocean City Beach Patrol will demonstrate the safest way to remove a person from the ocean when it is suspected that they have suffered a neck or back injury. “We developed the technique to remove a person with a potential serious neck or back injury from the water,” Arbin said. Just before the rescue demonstration, Arbin will give a presentation to conference attendees about the Ocean City Beach Patrol, its training, statistics, interaction with other agencies and injuries encountered in the ocean and on the beach. Topics will include rip currents, neck and back injuries and the dangers of digging holes in the sand.

City announces partial closure of uptown footpath (May 3, 2013) The Town of Ocean City will be repaving a portion of the walking pathway at Northside Park on 127th Street beginning Friday, May 3. Work is scheduled to be completed the following day, May 4. A portion of the pathway will be closed

while the path is repaired. During that time, visitors should avoid walking the area from the flag plaza east to the ball field parking lot, as well as the north side of the lagoon footbridge. Signs will be posted. If work cannot be performed on the scheduled dates due to weather condi-

tions, work will be performed the following Friday and Saturday, May 10-11. The repair work is part of regularly scheduled maintenance for Ocean City parks. The remainder of Northside Park will remain open and all programs will run as scheduled.

Surfing beaches now conditional on franchise vendor operation Loss of concession income at inlet means surfers get room when stands close ZACK HOOPES ■ Staff Writer (May 3, 2013) Ocean City’s subcommittee for surf beach scheduling made a minor tweak to its plans this week in response to concern from beach concessionaires that additional closings would unduly affect their business. Last month, the City Council okayed the committee’s plan to give surfers more elbow room during the upcoming summer, when beaches are crowded with bathers. This year, the city will be

stipulating that the Ocean City Beach Patrol has the ability to double the size — from one block to two — of both rotating surf beaches, depending on how much demand it anticipates given the quality of the surfing conditions. The Beach Patrol will also have the discretion to keep the designated surf beach at the inlet – normally closed on summer weekends – open through the next-to-last weekend in June and again beginning the next-to-last weekend in August, conditional on the density of swimmers. But this presents a problem to beach equipment vendors, who pay the city for the rights to sell chairs and umbrellas on certain sections of beach under a franchise system. “The inlet is split into three parcels,”

explained franchise owner Will Edmonds. “I currently have the south inlet, which is the largest parcel and is also where the surf beach is, which I knew when I bid on it.” However, Edmonds said, the previously unplanned-for possibility that he inlet beach would be open for an additional seven weekends — during times in which he normally opens his rental stands — could cut into his business. “For me, that time was 30 percent of my revenue last year,” he said. “On six of those seven weekends, that was my biggest concession, even bigger than the ones I have in front of some of the big hotels up north.” But the committee, and especially the OCBP, took Edmonds’ concern as a potential safeguard for the new system.

Ocean City mayor completes Baltimore media tour

Mayor Rick Meehan

(May 3, 2013) Ocean City Mayor Rick Meehan completed a media tour of Baltimore last Wednesday, generating more than $13,000 in advertising dollar equivalency, according to estimates supplied by the city’s public relations department. Meehan made five appear-

ances on Baltimore television and radio stations to promote spring and summer events, the return of the Dew Tour, Baltimore Ravens Beach Bash and the resort’s Lucky Summer of ’13 promotion. The mayor visited five of Baltimore’s top media outlets: WBFFTV Fox 45, WIYY-FM 98Rock,

WJZ- TV CBS 13, WBAL-TV NBC 11, and WBAL-AM 1090. “We had a great trip to Baltimore and it’s clear everyone is excited for the season ahead,” Meehan said. “Media tours are important because they allow us to connect with members of the See MEDIA on Page 17A

stead of being subjective to the Beach Patrol’s estimations of how many bathers will show up versus how many surfers, the opening of the inlet will depend on the concessionaires. If they do not anticipate enough beach business to open, surfing will be allowed “It takes away the gray area. If the beach stand operator is not there, we’ll allow surfing,” OCBP Lt. Ward Kovacs proposed. The same requirement will be imposed when it comes to the possibility of expanding the surf beaches below 27th Street, because the beach stand franchises along the Boardwalk are smaller parcels — a single block — than those above, which are three blocks or more. “If we extend any surf beach in the south district, what we’re in effect doing is cutting off two entire beach stand operations for the day,” Kovacs said. Committee member and long-time local surfer Rick Pairo also asked that the OCBP closely monitor bather density in the afternoon. If swimmers are packing in early, the OCBP could declare a “modified” schedule when surfing is allowed anywhere outside of 50 yards from the nearest swimmer. “There are a lot of times, early and late in the season, where the beach is completely thinned out by 4 p.m.,” Pairo said. “We’re just asking for a little consideration.”

Outstanding county volunteers recognized for charitable work ‘Most Beautiful People’ honored for services during award ceremony NANCY POWELL ■ Staff Writer (May 3, 2013) Sitting with patients nearing the end of their lives, helping students with reading and math, providing rides to medical appointments, gathering gifts for the needy at Christmas and providing meals for the hungry are just a few of the many volunteer acts provided by Worcester County citizens who were honored by the County Commissioners and Volunteer Services Manager Cyndy Howell during the 2013 Worcester County’s Most Beautiful People Volunteer Awards ceremony on April 23. The celebration honored 16 people and two organizations for their ongoing service to the community. Jennifer Hamilton, a licensed clinical counselor who volunteers with Coastal Hospice, began helping that organization about one year ago.

WalMart plans to hire 100,000 honorably discharged veterans NANCY POWELL ■ Staff Writer (May 3, 2013) Job seekers who were honorably discharged from military service within the past year can find employment with WalMart, where they can join James Petrillo and other veterans on the job with the super retailer. The company plans to hire 100,000 veterans during the next five years. Petrillo, shift manager at the WalMart Supercenter on Route 50 between Ocean City and Berlin, likes his job there and the opportunity for advancement the company gave him. Petrillo, 28, was in the Marine Corps for four years, including a stint in Afghanistan. After serving his country, he found it difficult to find employment when he was honorably discharged in 2007. “I applied to 30 different companies. I only had a high school diploma,” he said Tuesday. “The only company that called me was WalMart.” Grateful to have a job, he started work unloading trucks at the WalMart in Georgetown, Del. Not long afterward, he was promoted to customer service manager. After about six months in that position, he was promoted to department manager.

“The company is all about leadership,” he said. In 2009, he was one of eight employees selected to attend WalMart Leaders Out in Front at the WalMart in Salisbury. Forty hours a week for two months, they learned how to be leaders, they learned about the company’s values and they learned how to communicate the company’s message of respecting others and promoting the brand. After completing those intensive classes, he was promoted to assistant store manager at the WalMart in Georgetown. When the WalMart Supercenter opened on Route 50, he was named shift manager. Although he has been promoted a number of times, he has not finished climbing the WalMart ladder of success. He said he “absolutely” intends to stay with the retail giant that gave him the opportunity to succeed. On Monday, he applied for the job of store manager at the WalMart in Onley, Va. Petrillo encourages other veterans to apply for jobs at WalMart, especially since company CEO Bill Simon announced Jan. 15 that the company would hire 100,000 veterans over the next five years. Hiring starts Memorial Day. See MILITARY on Page 19A

Inexpensive rabies clinics available throughout county this spring (May 3, 2013) The Worcester County Health Department and Animal Control will offer inexpensive rabies vaccination clinics at various locations this spring. Rabies is a dangerous fatal disease and ongoing problem in the county. People and animals can be infected by the virus if they are exposed to the saliva of an infected animal. Low-cost rabies clinics are offered to help residents protect their dogs, cats and ferrets. The clinices will be offered from 5:307 p.m. on the following dates: n Wednesday, May 8, at the Animal

Control facility on Timmons Road in Snow Hill. n Thursday, May 9, Bishopville Volunteer Fire Department, 10709 Bishopville Road, Bishopville n Wednesday, June 12, at the Animal Control facility on Timmons Road in Snow Hill. The cost for a rabies vaccination is $5 per pet for Worcester County residents and $10 per pet for non-residents. Proof of residency is required. Vaccinations are available for dogs, cats and ferrets. If this is not the pet’s first rabies vac-

cination, written proof of the previous shot in the form of a rabies certificate must be provided in order to receive a three-year booster shot. Otherwise, a one-year shot will be given. To receive a vaccination, dogs must be on a leash under the control of an adult, and cats and ferrets must be in a carrier or box with air holes. Keeping pets’ required rabies vaccinations current is the best way to prevent the spread of rabies from the wild animal population to the domestic animal population.

For more information on the clinics or to report animal bites or possible rabies exposures to pets from wild animals contact the Worcester County Health Department at 410-352-3234 or 410641-9559. If an incident occurs after normal business hours, contact your local law enforcement or the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office. The health department recommends the following tips to protect pets and family members from rabies exposure. n Keep current vaccinations dogs, See LOW-COST on Page 26A

Council approved a proposal by city Public Works Director Hal Adkins to place promotional banners for events on the Route 50 bridge, in response to the city having to close its banner program on Baltimore Avenue. “We started getting inquiries from special event promoters about other opportunities after we stopped the

program,” Adkins said. The city discovered recently that its practice of hanging promotional banners between utility poles across Baltimore Avenue was a serious safety hazard and had been disallowed by Delmarva Power some years ago. The bridge, according to Adkins, has 13 fixtures for welcome banners, as well as 16 fixtures to hang lighted snowflakes during the Winterfest and Light Up Downtown events. These could be easily used for other events as well, and Delmarva Power saw no problem with doing so. “We may already have interest from groups such as the Dew Tour and the air show, and I know for a fact that we already have interest from the gentleman sitting behind me, Mr. Motsko,” Adkins said. White Marlin Open organizer Jim Motsko attended the meeting in support of the proposal.

West Ocean City residents told to prepare for hurricanes Storm surge biggest problem in area and can cause extensive damage NANCY POWELL â&#x2013; Staff Writer (May 3, 2013) Hurricane season starts in less than one month and people should be prepared, members of the West Ocean City Association were advised during their meeting last week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You need to prepare in case it comes,â&#x20AC;? Tom Kane, the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emergency management planner said during the April 25 meeting at the Ocean City Volunteer Fire Company station on

Keyser Point Road. Hurricane season runs from June 1 through Nov. 30. Many residents are new to the area or are seasonal and have no experience with hurricanes, Kane said. Although weather watchers and experts use advanced methods and data to determine the most likely path of a hurricane, â&#x20AC;&#x153;forecasting does have limitation,â&#x20AC;? Kane said. For the 2013 hurricane season, forecasters are predicting 16 named storms and nine hurricanes, with five of those hurricanes being a category 3 or higher. The biggest problem in this area is storm surge. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had lots and lots of damage due to storm surge,â&#x20AC;? Kane said. He advised people to prepare now for the possibility of a hurricane or major storm such as the super storm Sandy that wrecked havoc in Crisfield and coastal areas in New Jersey and New York in late October. Parts of Ocean City, West Ocean City and South Point were also affected. County Commissioner Bud Church, a West Ocean City resident, recalled driving to South Point, where part of a yard had washed away, taking with it a septic system. Gov. Martin Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Malley called him three or four times that day and Church told him about the missing land and septic system. Church said it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t long before help arrived at South Point. Help was also fast to arrive after Church called the director of the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Public Works Department to report that a tree had fallen across North Avenue in West Ocean City near the bay. Within 20 minutes, people with chain saws were there to cut it up and move it out of the way. Staff in several county departments were involved in protecting people and property during that storm. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have, in my opinion, one of the best emergency services in the state of Maryland,â&#x20AC;? Church said. While first responders and others assist during hurricanes and major storms whenever possible, residents must do their part to be ready and have sufficient supplies. That emergency kit Kane talked about should be kept in a sturdy, easy-to-carry container such as a duffle bag or a plastic storage container, should have ready-toeat canned meat, fruits and vegetables, canned juices, milk and soup, high energy snacks, comfort foods such as cookies and candy and a manual can opener. The kit should also include prescription medicines, a first aid kit, a flashlight with extra batteries, a portable radio with extra batteries, cash, important family documents, sturdy clothing, rain gear, bedding, a small took kit and bathroom supplies. Water is also important for the emergency kit. One gallon per person per day for three days is recommended.

Military experience good for biz The job offers are for “any honorably discharged veteran within his or her first 12 months off active duty.” The majority of jobs will be in WalMart and Sam’s Clubs, but some will be in distribution centers and the home office. The company’s respect and appreciation for the military runs deep to the roots of its history, WalMart spokeswoman Dianna Gee told Ocean City Today. WalMart’s founder, Sam Walton, served during World War II. “Thus, today we rely upon the leadership of – and actively seek – veterans as associates to help us run our stores and shape the future of our business,” Gee said. Honorably discharged veterans de-

serve steady employment, she added. “When you fight for your country, you shouldn’t come home and have to fight for a job,” she said. “We can’t think of a better group to lead in revitalizing our economy than those who have served in uniform.” Gee said veterans are good employees because of their experience in the military, and because they are team players and quick learners with a passion for serving others. “Veterans have a record of performance under pressure,” she said. “They are leaders with discipline, training and a passion for service,” Simon said last January. “There is a seriousness and sense of purpose that the military instills and we need it today more than ever.”

MAY 3, 2013

Workout installation conflicts with business Richard and Tammy China, owners of Gold’s Gym in the Gold Coast Mall, made a good point in their letter to the editor two weeks ago, when they contended that their business should not have to compete with a taxpayer-supported free service provided by local government. They were referring to the workout equipment offered at Northside Park by the Department of Parks and Recreation. Because many local businesses have only a few months in which to make their budgets, they don’t need competition from a government-sponsored — and therefore more financially stable — operation. The department’s motives in this venture were undoubtedly innocent and were geared toward making the recreation facility more appealing to visitors and residents, but it does infringe on private enterprise. As the Chinas said in their letter, going up against the area’s gyms, however inadvertently, is no different than offering government-sponsored bike and watercraft rentals, or even subsidized restaurants. Chances are that no one in local government realized the existence of this conflict between public and private enterprise when the go-ahead for the workout equipment was given. That, however, doesn’t make it right and Gold’s Gym, along with the owners of other local fitness centers, should not have to work even harder to make money because of a government-provided service. Although there is no legal reason why the city can’t provide whatever services and amenities it wants, government has a moral obligation to protect its taxpayers, fitness centers being among them. We encourage local government to confine its desire to expand its services to those that are essential rather than those that breach the wall between public and private enterprise.

READERS’ FORUM

Honor mothers and survivors Editor, Spring is here. Coming is Mother’s Day, when we honor our mothers, both alive and those who have passed away. On this same weekend, May 10, another event is coming — Relay For Life, sponsored by the American Cancer Society and held at the Frontier Town Campground in Berlin. Both events are celebrations — for mothers we love and honor, and cancer survivors who have battled this dreaded disease and won. We also want to remember the loved ones who lost and ask individuals and communities to fight back against this disease. People from all walks of life gather to celebrate this event. Cancer doesn’t discriminate; it affects young, old, all genders and ethnic groups. No matter who you are, there is a place for you at the Relay. The joy and emotion felt at the relay is hard to describe, but heartwarming feelings are everywhere. Tears flow along with the joy of togetherness. I am in my ninth year as a survivor and every time I attend these relays, my feelings revert to the following: joy for being here, hope for others to overcome cancer and sadness for those who lost the battle. My letter is to ask that the good people of this community look around and see how your friends

and loved ones are affected by this disease, and then contribute no matter the amount to the American Cancer Society. To all my friends and loved ones who are suffering from this disease, God bless to all. Nick Bartolomeo Selbyville, Del.

County budget cuts needed Editor, Did you know that 80 percent of Worcester County’s revenue comes from property taxes? Dropping property values have resulted in $3.8 million decrease in county funds for fiscal year 2013-14. The difference between the expected county income and initial spending requests for FY 2013-14 is a deficit of more than $7 million. County commissioners could offset the decrease in property values by raising property taxes. Perhaps because election season is around the corner, the county commissioners are considering making up the $3.8 million shortage with money from the General Stabilization fund, or the “rainy day” fund. Finance officer Harold Higgins told the commissioners on April 16 that almost all of the rainy day fund would be depleted to get the county through FY 2015. Once the rainy day fund is gone, the next logical step would be a property tax increase if the

housing market has not recovered. There is a proposed 5 percent increase over last year’s budget for the general fund, which amounts to more than $8 million. It is imperative that the commissioners cut the budget, fulfilling only the necessary needs and services of Worcester County. The economic downturn is still in full force, and the consequences of the gas tax are yet to be seen. There is no guarantee that property values will have recovered by the time the rainy day fund is gone. With the cost of living on the rise, Worcester County residents simply can’t afford a property tax increase. Worcester County Commissioners need to cut the budget and refuse to increase property taxes. Please attend the budget hearing at Stephen Decatur High School, May 7, at 7 p.m. and exercise your voice. We must stop the spending madness. Laura Dover Pocomoke City

cruel, but animals suffered nonetheless. No one can bring the birds back, but we can all help prevent additional animal suffering simply by going vegan. Chickens raised for their flesh are crammed by the tens of thousands into filthy sheds. Many farmers don’t care enough about the birds to even install an auxiliary power system, sprinklers, or an alarm in case of an emergency. The birds are treated as commodities, not living beings. They’re bred and drugged to grow so large so quickly that their legs and organs can’t keep up, making heart attacks, organ failure, and crippling leg deformities common. Their bodies become so fragile that their bones snap when they’re stuffed in transport crates for slaughter. At the slaughterhouse, they’re shackled upside-down, their throats are cut, and they’re often scalded alive. If you don’t want chickens to suffer from these routine cruelties — or because of alcohol-related calamities —

By Stewart Dobson The warden threw a party in the county jail. The prison band was there and they began to wail. The band was jumpin’ and the joint began to swing. You should’ve heard those knocked out jailbirds sing. From what I have read, the goings on at the Baltimore City Jail these past few years make Elvis’ Jailhouse Rock look like having to share a hut on Devil’s Island with someone named Mangler. Sure, Elvis had Little Joe on the slide trombone and Spider Murphy, an apparent sax offender, playing tenor. But the one thing his rhythmically blessed and wellchoreographed convicts did not have was room service and certain other amenities. This would include, but would not be limited to, corrections officers who were doing considerably more than dancin’ to the jailhouse rock. As recent investigations by state and federal authorities have found, not only did a baker’s dozen of female corrections officers join in on a smuggling ring orchestrated by a prison gang leader, but four of them will be lining up for Mother’s Day cards, courtesy of the same guy. If nothing else, this proves that while jail time might be unthinkable, it is conceivable. It is also clear that this particular prison boss might have said, “I can do this time standing on my head,” but did not necessarily practice it. Even though the carrying on in this lockup has many different aspects, everyone seems to have the same question. “Wow, this guy has 13 female prison guards working for him, with four of them doing the dance of seven veils in the broom closet with him? What does he look like?” That would be missing the point, since the central question is not what he looks like, but what they look like. After all, when you’re wowing them at Ladies’ Night down at Bubba’s Bistro, it isn’t as if you would feel the need to work a captive audience. “Yoo-hooooo, Mad Dog, it’s me, Brunhilda. I know you’re in theeeeeeere.” Bearing that in mind, the constitutional provision against “cruel and unusual punishment” might apply. “Not Big Mole Martha again! Guard, I want my lawyer.” And this guy could afford a good one, considering that he boasted of taking in $16,000 in one month behind bars via his smuggling/illicit goods enterprise – tax-free and even exempt from a stormwater management fee. It just goes to show you, that when you go to prison, having a band is one thing, but having contraband is better, Brunhilda and friends aside.

the way through to the well-deserved standing ovation at the end of the performance. The sets, props, costumes and staging were wonderful and creative, and the acting and singing was, well, words fail. Simply marvelous. Everyone involved in this production should rightly feel very proud of themselves. Carol Frazier Berlin

OC BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS ZACK HOOPES ■ Staff Writer (May 3, 2013) The Ocean City Board of Zoning Appeals discussed the following matters during its April 25, 2013 session:

Continuance granted for Boardwalk property The board granted a continuance for a proposed redevelopment at 407 Atlantic Ave., allowing the project’s applicants to come back to the board later with revised plans without having to file a new case. “Our intentions are to revise our request substantially … and resubmit it after we have had conversations with some of the other folks involved,” said attorney Joe Moore. The anticipated revision of the plans for the property, currently occupied by the Hampton House, on the Boardwalk between Fourth

and Fifth streets, were due to considerable public outcry and consternation about the size and configuration of a new building proposed for the site. Moore said that he had been recently retained by the property’s new owner, and would be meeting with unit owners of the adjacent condominium buildings as well as with the city’s non-profit urban development company, the Ocean City Development Corporation. “I was not aware that we had not reached out to OCDC,” Moore said. Plans for the property entailed the demolition of the Hampton House and the construction of a mixed-use condominium building, with two floors of retail units and three and a half levels of residential space. Exemptions to city code requested for the site included a reduction of building setback from 32 feet to 20 feet, which residents of the El Capitan condo, to the south of the site, feared would block their northward view. Zoning officials and City Council members

MAY 3, 2013

received a bevy of letters last week, many of which were forwarded to Ocean City Today, objecting to the size, setback, and parking burden of the proposed construction.

Board OKs Boardwalk shop, Bagels & Balls The board waived parking requirements for Bagels & Balls, a new eatery slated to occupy Boardwalk storefronts beneath the Royalton Hotel on 11th Street. According to city Zoning Administrator R. Blaine Smith, the 15 customer seats that are slated to be installed will necessitate, by city code, that the facility provide eight parking spaces. However, such spaces would be nearly impossible to obtain within an accessible distance, and may not be necessary given the property’s use. “Although we are classified as a restaurant, all of our ordering is take-out,” said Bagels & Balls proprietor Mark McConnell. “Our primary business, probably 99 percent

ed Lots t i Limront e! f abl d n Po Avail

of it, is pedestrian traffic on the Boardwalk. There’ll be no waiters; everyone will come to the counter to order.” As indicated by its name, the restaurant will serve mainly bagels and crab balls. It will occupy what are currently two separate eateries below the Royalton, with a hole being cut in the wall to join the spaces. A walk-in freezer will also be installed. Due to plumbing code, 15 is the maximum number of seats the restaurant may offer with a single customer toilet. The property has a second bathroom, but that will be located behind the freezer and accessible to employees only. “Just to be clear, you have no intention of using the other bathroom for the public and expanding the seating,” reiterated board Chairman Alfred Harrison. The Ocean City Development Corporation also advised the board to require that at least 10 percent of the property’s Boardwalk frontage feature planters, benches, or other public amenities. OCDC also requested that the large, unused sign in front of the property be removed when the eatery is remodeled.

Midtown TCBY granted parking waiver The board also granted a parking waiver for a TCBY Yogurt franchise, to be established in the 33rd Street Shopping Center. Under city code, Zoning Administrator R. Blaine Smith said, shopping centers are allowed to have up to 25 percent of their space used as restaurants without incurring the Continued on Page 23A

OC BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS Continued from Page 22A more stringent restaurant parking requirements. Given that the center already has other restaurants, however, the new yogurt franchise would be subject to parking provisions above what it is nominally allotted out of the 54 spaces in the parking lot to the centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rear. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If this was the only food and beverage facility [in the shopping center], they would be subjected to the retail parking requirements instead,â&#x20AC;? Smith said. However, as with the previous applicant, business owner Wally Salem said that the vast majority of his business is take-out, and seating at his other two locations on 56th and 127th Streets is rarely more than a third full. The 33rd Street location will have 42 inside and 16 outside seats. Shopping center landlord and Anthonyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Beer and Wine owner John Christ said he did not anticipate his new tenant creating any more of a parking burden than previous tenants.

Three courses for $20 will be offered on a light fare menu. A fine dining menu will feature three courses to choose from for $40. Peakyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rooftop Restaurant & Bar, located on the top floor of the Fenwick Inn on 138th Street, opened its doors two months ago and General Manager Shawn Kotwica hopes to attract new patrons during Restaurant Week. Sunday through Thursday, customers can choose an item from a special $9.99 menu. On Friday and Saturday nights, or upon request during weekdays, two can dine for $49.99. The promotion includes an appetizer to share, two salads, two entrees (accompanied by two sides), one dessert and a bottle of house wine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great way for [diners] to get a bargain price and taste our fresh dishes,â&#x20AC;? Kotwica said. Several chefs have created special dishes for Restaurant Week, while a few other establishments have selected favorites from their regular menu to showcase. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Restaurants who are the most creative seem to have the most success and are the busiest during Restaurant Week,â&#x20AC;? Jones said. After attending a conference in Baltimore several years ago, Jones pitched the idea for Restaurant Week to the HMRA board of directors, citing its success in other parts of the country. They loved the idea. The first spring Restaurant Week took place in 2007. Because the spring campaign was so successful, a fall Restaurant Week was added. It has also proven to be prosperous.

In 2012, docents welcomed 1,100 visitors to Rackliffe House, an 18th century plantation house near Assateague Island, and donated more than 300 hours of service.

(May 3, 2013) The Rackliffe House Trust is recruiting volunteers to serve as docents at Rackliffe House, an 18th century plantation house near Assateague Island that has been restored and now functions as a coastal heritage museum. New volunteers must participate in a training session on Thursday, May 23. Once trained, volunteers will enhance the Assateague visitor’s experience through leading house tours and communicating Rackliffe’s cultural history. Individuals 18 years and older with an interest in local history and good public speaking skills may find this position particularly rewarding. Volunteers will become acquainted with the history of Rackliffe House and Maryland’s seaside

heritage. Volunteers are asked to commit to working two days each month throughout Rackliffe’s opening season, which is summer through late autumn. Volunteers will also be asked to assist with special events at Rackliffe House. In 2012, docents welcomed 1,100 visitors to Rackliffe House and donated more than 300 hours of service. Interested individuals are asked to contact Jim Rapp at dlitedirector@comcast.net or 443-614-0261 for more information. To learn more about Rackliffe House, visit www.RackliffeHouse.com.

ments and annual dental and vision screenings for approximately 200 students. She also coordinates with the county Health Department, the Lions Club, the Sheriff’s Office, Berlin Optical and others to provide services to students. At holiday time, she gives teachers a form to determine which families need assistance with gift giving. Then she sends request forms to families to see if they want help and what might be on the children’s wish list. She helps fill those wish lists by gathering items from various places, including the Santa House of the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office and other non-profits. Unable to attend the awards luncheon, Dornes will receive her certificate of recognition soon. Andrea Adams of Bishopville, manager of Bank of America in Ocean City, serves on the board of directors for Junior Achievement and coordinates its volunteers. She also teaches financial literacy to students for the organization. She started volunteering with Junior Achievement more than two years ago because Bank of America “encourages all of its associates to participate in the community.” The Junior Achievement organization teaches financial literacy and entrepreneurship to students in kindergarten through 12th grade.

Because she knew many Worcester County teachers and because of her background in finance, going into the schools to teach financial literacy, she said, “seemed to be a good fit.” Adams is also active in her church, OC Worship Center, and is involved with Diakonia, the Shirley Grace Pregnancy Center, American Cancer Society, American Heart Association and the American Diabetes Foundation. Several other volunteers were also recognized during the awards luncheon, held at the Worcester County jail. Rita Taylor of Bishopville serves on the board of directors of Diakonia, is a member of it Special Events Committee and is involved with its thrift shop. She has also served as music director, pianist and organist for Friendship United Methodist Church where she directed a Methodist Men’s Choir. Patricia Ilczuk-Lavaceau of Ocean City was recognized for her work on the board of directors of Atlantic General Hospital, where she spearheads the annual Penguin Swim fundraiser. She is credited with raising more than $400,000 for the hospital in the four years she has served as event chair.

Berlin Council reviews budget requests, financial status in preparation for FY 2014 SHEILA R. CHERRY ■ Associate Editor/Bayside Gazette (May 3, 2013) The Berlin Town Council approved funding requests for several local nonprofit organizations at a Monday work session, drawing on surpluses in the town’s special appropriations and contingency funds, according to Town Administrator Anthony Carson. The contributions were budgeted for fiscal 2013, but had not been previously approved. They will be on the agenda for the council’s approval during the May 13 public meeting, Carson said. In all, three requests were approved to be paid primarily from the contingency fund, which is used to pay for unforeseen expenditures. They included Berlin Little League, which requested $10,000 to renovate its concession

stand, Berlin Reclaims Attitudes and Value Enhancement (BRAVE), which had requested $1,000 to help pay for local children to attend summer camp, and Worcester County Youth and Family Counseling Services, which requested $2,500 to pay stipends for students participating in summer internships. The fourth request, a $7,500 grant to pay for operational expenses for Diakonia, which provides housing assistance and other services to families in financial crisis, will be paid from the special appropriations fund. At the April 15 workshop, Mayor Gee Williams said the proposed budget for the general fund for the 2014 fiscal year 2014 was $4.7 million, down $93,270 from 2013. The decline resulted from a $170,000 drop in property taxes because of lower

change in operational maintenance costs for the Water Department, except for the money used from the contingency fund for the new well house on Grant Street. She requested $32,500: to pay for a new pick-up truck with a bed liner and tow bar, budgeted at $24,000, to replace the existing vehicle, which has 135,000 miles on it, and for a new lawn mower, budgeted for $8,500, to help maintain the properties at the well houses and pump stations. Kreiter and Wastewater Superintendent Jamey Latchum discussed the need for $8,500 for heating and cooling units and maintenance for the pole barn at the wastewater treatment site, $50,000 for a lawn mower that will allow workers to safely navigate sloped surfaces at the new spray site in Newark, and $10,000 for office supplies and equipment for the new spray site. Economic and Development Director Michael Day only had one item that differed from his normal budget. He requested an additional $5,000 to help pay for a proposed trolley system that would operate between Berlin, West Ocean City and Ocean Pines. The operation is estimated to cost $140,000 annually, according to a presentation Day made to the council. He said the Worcester County Tourism Department had budgeted $10,000 in its draft FY 2014 budget.

assessments, with nearly a half of that made up for by increases in highway user fees, the town’s share of state income tax revenue, state aid for police and grass cutting service by the Public Works Department. A 2 percent across-the-board salary increase will be instituted for all town workers beginning on July 1, according to Carson. Also, electric customers will see a slight rate decrease starting in June, which he said reflected a new power purchase agreement with Next Era Energy Resources. As for the new stormwater utility fee, which begins July 1, Director of Water Resources Jane Kreiter and the Stormwater Utility Department’s new head, Jocelyn Aydelotte, told the council they would initially be using revenue amounts projected in the financing feasibility study compiled by University of Maryland researchers. Carson also told the council that consultant EA Engineering had completed its survey of impervious surfaces for nonresidential properties and that letters advising property owners of their assessments would be mailed in late May. Kreiter and Water Superintendent Marvin Smith also briefed the council on the financial status of their department and its funding needs in the next fiscal year. Kreiter said there had not been much

Info on burglaries sought by police The Berlin Police Department is investigating two burglaries that occurred in the past two weeks. In both cases, the burglar or burglars entered the house via an unlocked rear door while the residents were not home and stole jewelry and electronics. The Berlin Police Department encourages residents to secure their homes when they are home and when they are left unattended. Police are also asking residents to be aware of their surroundings and report any unusual or suspicious persons or vehicles. Anyone with information about the burglaries should contact the Berlin Police Department at 410-641-1333.

Charged with 2009 theft at pizzaria A 26-year-old Russian woman was charged April 24 with stealing from a Boardwalk restaurant when she worked there in 2009.

When a detective was interviewing one of the women in 2009, three others, including Ivonova, left the business without com-

Alleged theft of Xbox system from brother Mitchell Harris Boyer, 24, of Ocean City was charged April 24 with theft of less than $1,000 after allegedly stealing items from his brother. After allegedly taking an Xbox games system and several games valued at about $800, he sold them the same day to a store in West Ocean City for $122.40. The store’s surveillance video showed a woman making the actual sale, but Boyer was with her. She sold the items, she told police, because Boyer did not have identification with him.

Alleged assault during argument

(May 3, 2013) The 26-year-old Walkersville woman who allegedly stopped her car on the Route 50 bridge because she “saw a guy fishing” on Nov. 2 was sentenced Monday to five months in jail, with all but 10 days suspended. In District Court in Ocean City, Katie Ann Autumn Murray pleaded guilty to possession of marijuana and driving while under the influence of alcohol. She was fined $100 on the marijuana charge and was sentenced to jail on the second charge. In exchange for her guilty pleas, other charges against her were dropped. Murray was driving westbound on the bridge when she stopped her Hyundai shortly before 2 a.m. She told police she had consumed four alcoholic drinks before getting behind the wheel of her car. She said she scored an 11 or 12 on a scale of 1 for “buzzed” and 10 for “drunk.” She failed to complete field sobriety tests satisfactorily and re-

The deputy had stopped the vehicle for erratic driving on Route 113 near Bishopville. Longacre was also charged with traffic offenses, including driving while his license was suspended.

She was arrested a third time on Feb. 19 and was charged once more with second-degree assault, with Webster as the victim. That assault reportedly took place during an argument about a can of beer. She was also found not guilty Wednesday of that crime.

He found Webster in contempt of court and sentenced him to four days in the county lock-up. The judge also found probable cause for the felony charge of first-degree assault against Webster and forwarded the case to Circuit Court in Snow Hill. That case is scheduled for trail July 3.

MALLARDS WIN ROUND 2 Prep tennis teams take down SD in second match-up of season LISA CAPITELLI ■ Assistant Editor (May 3, 2013) When the Stephen Decatur and Worcester Prep tennis teams met on March 27, the Seahawks narrowly edged out the Mallards 4-3. During the second matchup last Friday between the cross-town rivals, it was the Worcester Prep Mallards who came out on top. Competing on Decatur’s home courts in Berlin, Worcester’s boys’ team was victorious 5-2. Prep senior captain Tommy Thornett shut out his first singles opponent 8-0. Quinn Lukas, a sophomore captain, took his second singles match 8-4. “Tommy Thornett, once again, led the way with flawless tennis at No. 1 singles … [and] Quinn Lukas settled down with the match even and took control running out the last four games of the match,” said Prep Coach Keith Coleman.

Pritchard makes contact with the ball during her first doubles competition with Kellam. The pair won their match 8-4 and Worcester edged out Decatur 4-3 on April 26.

(May 3, 2013) The Stephen Decatur girls’ lacrosse team netted 24 goals, and held the Wi-Hi Indians scoreless, Monday in Salisbury. “We had two starters out sick and it rained the Decatur Coach whole game, but I thought Bob Musitano they played well,” said Decatur Coach Bob Musitano. “They played with discipline. We worked on draw control and pressure defense.” Eleven Lady Seahawks scored. Leading the charge was junior Layla Fowler, who tallied five goals. Sammi Quilter, a junior, logged four goals, and senior Alexis Martinek pitched in with three goals. Sophomore Payton VanKirk contributed with two goals and three assists. Jillian Petito, a sophomore, protected Decatur’s goal during the first half and was never challenged. Senior Skylar Siegfried took over in the second half and made four saves. Decatur’s final game of the regular season is scheduled for today, Friday, against the Parkside Rams in Salisbury. If the Seahawks win, they will lock down the No. 1 spot in the Bayside South and will advance to the May 7 conference championship game at County Stadium in Salisbury. The Berlin team will face either Queen Anne’s or Easton in the title match. “I’m very happy with the girls. It’s a great group,” Musitano said. “The girls are in good shape, everyone seems healthy and they understand what we want them to do. They’re playing well as a team.” The draw for tournament bracket seeding is scheduled to take place Monday. First-round playoff competition is set for May 8. Decatur will compete in the 3A-2A East Region.

Mallards’ perform well and coaches pleased with play Continued from Page 37A

Sophomore Erik Zorn’s third singles match with Decatur senior captain Joe Iacona was a back-and-forth battle that went into a tiebreaker set. Zorn outscored Iacona 7-2. Chris Choy, a sophomore, claimed an 8-5 victory at fourth singles. “Erik Zorn and Chris Choy were both forced to ‘play up’ due to the absence of No. 3 player Chase Schmehling and both responded with victories,” Coleman said. “[Zorn and Iacona] match was highlighted by numerous deuce games and the difference came down to a few crucial points.” First doubles partners, senior London Walker and junior Lucas Baier, secured a team win, by topping their opponents 8-4. Decatur junior Zach Elmer scored an 8-3 victory at fifth singles. Currently undefeated this season, Junior Tyler Angelo and senior Steve Redner logged an 8-4 win at second doubles. “[Worcester Prep] played much better this time. It was their first match [of the season] last time,” said Decatur Coach Steve Berquist. “They just outplayed us. Even though we lost, I enjoyed watching the matches. We match up well with them.” The Lady Mallards edged out the Seahawks 4-3. Captains Lydia Pritchard, a junior, and senior Parker Kellam outscored their first doubles competition 8-4. Sophomore Natalie Twilley and freshman Erika Smith were victorious at second doubles, taking the match 8-2. Freshman Sonja Walker took her fifth singles match 8-3. “We played in reverse order with Worcester Prep winning at both doubles and fifth singles. We were up 3-0 going into upper singles,” said Mallards’ Coach Cyndee Hudson. Decatur seniors Madison Pope and Tori Whigham won their second and third singles matches 8-4 and 8-5, respectively. Decatur’s Lexi Ashton, a senior, led early, but Prep junior Claire Stickler fought back. Ashton pulled out a 9-7 win at fourth singles. The competition was even 3-3 with the first singles match left to play. Sophomore Tatjana Kondraschow lost the first game, but won the next eight to secure the team victory for Worcester. “A terrific job at each level. The girls were up for the challenge and competitive at each entry,” Hudson said. “A great job all around.” Seahawks’ Coach Jamie Greenwood said he was disappointed in his doubles teams’ performance. “We just couldn’t get into a rhythm. Our doubles weren’t clicking,” he said. “I thought the middle seeds — Madison, Tori and Lexi — did well.”

Bayside Conference track meet set for May 9, at Seahawk Stadium Decatur boys’ team hopes to keep its untarnished record, win championship LISA CAPITELLI ■ Assistant Editor (May 3, 2013) The Stephen Decatur boys’ outdoor track team went undefeated during the regular season. Nearly as successful were the Lady Seahawks, who lost only their first meet of 2013 to Kent Island

— and even then, it was by a 5-point margin on a snowy March day. Both teams hope to capture Bayside Conference titles when Decatur hosts the 17-school championship meet on May 9. “If we want to win, we definitely have to bring our ‘A’ game,” said Decatur Coach Jody Stigler. Competing on their home turf and not having to travel is a major advantage for the Seahawks, Stigler said. The girls won the Bayside team award in 2012. “We certainly have a chance to win it

this year. We’re so strong in the field events that I think we’ll be OK,” Stigler said. The girls’ squad will not only need athletes to place in their individual events, but taking top honors is key. “We’re not going to be able to [capture the Bayside team title] unless we get people to win their individual events,” Stigler said. In 2012, the Decatur boys’ team scored 136 points to finish in second place behind Queen Anne’s by just 12.25 points. The 2013 unbeaten Seahawks are favored to win the championship trophy.

Stigler said he will be disappointed if they don’t come out on top. “I think we have more depth than most of the competition,” Stigler said. “A lot of events we’ll score multiple points, particularly the field events. We need to do well in the field events and back it up on the track.” The Bayside championship meet is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. Thursday. Following the conference competition is the two-day 3A East Regional meet, set for May 16 and 18, at Reservoir High School in Fulton, Md.

(May 3, 2013) Every Stephen Decatur lacrosse player on Coach Scott Lathroum’s roster played a part in last Friday’s 14-0 victory over the Wi-Hi Indians at Seahawk Stadium in Berlin. The Decatur squad led 4-0 at the end of the first quarter and tacked on nine goals in second quarter to go into the halftime break ahead 13-0. Lathroum made a number of substitutions in the second half, allowing some Seahawks an opportunity to play different positions.

“Everyone played and it was a lot of fun in the second half,” Lathroum said. “We didn’t have any breakdowns. Our fast-break offense was good and the defense played very well. Our man-down defense has definitely been very good all year.” Eight Seahawks scored. Sophomore Corey Gwin led Decatur with five goals. Senior Dylan Kerkovich pitched in with four goals, and senior captain Andrew Ternahan scored one and had four assists. Sophomores Shane Moore (two asSee SD on Page 43A

(May 3, 2013) The Worcester Prep boys’ lacrosse team solidified second place in the Metro Independent Lacrosse League’s east division last Saturday with a 19-6 victory over the Eleanor Roosevelt Raiders. “We were sloppy at points, but we played well most of the game,” Prep Coach Kevin Gates said Prep Coach after the win in Berlin. “We had control most of Kevin Gates the game, which is good.” The Mallards led 7-1 at the end of the first quarter and 9-2 at the halftime break. Worcester outscored Roosevelt 6-1 in the third quarter to pull ahead 15-3. Senior captain Harrison Brennan had a game-high nine goals. He also assisted a goal. “He had a phenomenal game,” Gates said of Brennan, who will play lacrosse at

Div. III Lynchburg College in Virginia. “He’s been playing unbelievable lately.” Junior Jack Marshall chipped in with two goals and three assists. Gordon Abercrombie, a senior captain, logged two goals and two assists. Freshman Wade Walter made eight saves in the cage for Worcester. The Mallards have advanced to the MILL quarterfinals, which they’ll host at 4 p.m. Tuesday. The Prep team will play either the Gunston Day Herons or Salisbury School Dragons. The semifinals are set for Wednesday. This is the first year Worcester is competing in the MILL. The Mallards are also still part of the Eastern Shore Independent Athletic Conference. Since the same teams are in the MILL and ESIAC playoffs, Tuesday’s game will also be the ESIAC championship game. Worcester is competing for its fifth consecutive ESIAC title. The MILL finals are scheduled for Saturday, May. 11. Before playoffs, the Mallards have one regular season game remaining. The Berlin team will take a trip into Delaware to play the St. Andrews Saints today, Friday. “We’re playing better. We started the year 1-5 and now we’re [6-8], which is a testament to the kids,” Gates said earlier this week. “They’ve fought through a lot.”

Mallards fail to follow game plan LISA CAPITELLI ■ Assistant Editor (May 3, 2013) Worcester Prep Coach Page Rogers felt she fully prepared her girls’ lacrosse team for Tuesday’s game against the Cape Henlopen Vikings in Lewes, Del. The Lady Mallards had a strategy and they all knew their roles. Unfortunately, the girls didn’t follow Rogers’ game plan, and the Vikings won 9-6. “Everything we went over, they didn’t do. We knew when we had possession of the ball we had to be patient and we needed to score, but we forced the ball or we got stripped,” Rogers said. “We were just not pumped up. I think Cape wanted it more than we did.” The home team scored two quick goals after the first whistle to establish an early 2-0 lead. At halftime, the Vikings led 6-4. As the competition went on, Rogers said, the Lady Mallards played better and with more intensity, but “we still continued to throw the ball away” in the second half. “We had a lot of turnovers and it was like every ground ball got in their stick,” she said. “The kids that needed to step up in a big game like this didn’t. It’s disappointing because we’re better than we played.”

On a positive note, the Mallards’ defensive line played well, especially in the second half, against a strong offensive team, Rogers said. She also praised the performances of goalies Carolyn Dorey, a sophomore, and junior Maddie Pilchard. Dorey made three saves in the first half and Pilchard stopped four Vikings’ shots in the second. Senior captain Meredith Smith and junior Ali Greer scored two goals apiece. Lilly DiNardo and Meg Lingo, both juniors, each had a goal. The Mallards are seeded No. 1 in the Eastern Shore Independent Athletic Conference tournament. They will play either the Gunston Day Herons or Salisbury School Dragons on Wednesday in the ESIAC semifinals, in Berlin at 3:30 p.m. The championship game is scheduled for Friday, May 10.

sists), Jackson Mumford (one assist) and Jake Lathroum, junior Chase Sams and senior Riley McCabe each scored once. Senior captain and goalie Brooks Gilbert, stopped one shot in the first half. Sophomore Will Hastings replaced him at goalie in the second half and was not challenged. Decatur’s final game of the regular season is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. today, Friday, against the Parkside Rams in Berlin. If the Seahawks win, they will be the No. 1 team in the Bayside South and will advance to the conference championship, scheduled for May 7, at County Stadium in Salisbury. They will take on the Kent Island Buccaneers, the top Bayside North team, for the title. On March 26, Kent Island topped Decatur 10-7. After that game, Lathroum said his team was well prepared and knew the Bucs’ strategy, but the Berlin squad failed to execute its game plan. The Seahawks want to avenge that loss and capture their second consecutive Bayside trophy. Decatur edged out Kent Island 10-9 last year to win the title. “We’re all looking forward to playing Kent Island in the Bayside championship,” Lathroum said Monday. “Fortunately, we’re playing very well right now. I think we’re starting to peak.” The draw for regional tournament bracket seeding is set for Monday. Firstround action is scheduled to begin May 8. Decatur will compete in the 3A-2A East Regional bracket.

Foreclosure limbo for some properties

New positions

LAUREN BUNTING ■ Contributing Writer (May 3, 2013) A new problem has recently been brought to light surrounding distressed properties — foreclosures held in limbo. This problem is when banks decide to walk away from a distressed property and not carry through with a foreclosure, similar to the way homeowners have walked away from their homes when told a foreclosure is imminent. But, a serious problem arises when the homeowner doesn’t know of the bank’s decision not to carry through with the foreclosure, and the home remains titled to a homeowner who has long since walked away from the home after receiving foreclosure notices. All of the regular upkeep and expenses for a house will keep piling up, such as taxes, water/ sewer bills, lawn maintenance, etc. This situation has been dubbed as having a “zombie title,” but no national databases exist to track how many “zombie titles” exist. It’s expected that the banks will follow through with a foreclosure once they notify a homeowner of their intent to foreclose, but financial institutions are realizing that following through on taking over decaying houses in markets swamped with foreclosures may not generate anywhere near what is owed to them. And, by walking away themselves, the bank can realize the tax benefits from documenting the loss without any of the financial responsibilities of ownership. There is also the possibility that the banks are selling the unpaid balances to debt collectors. There are currently no regulations in place that require banks to notify homeowners when they change their mind See NEW on Page 46A

Judy and Herb Schoellkopf stand on the Old Pro Golf Dinosaur themed course on 68th Street last Friday. Old Pro Golf will celebrate 50 years in Ocean City on Saturday.

GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY Old Pro Golf celebrates 50 years in Ocean City on May 4 LISA CAPITELLI ■ Assistant Editor (May 3, 2013) May 4 is an exceptionally special day for Ocean City resident Herb Schoellkopf. Not only is Saturday his 92nd birthday, but “The guru of miniature golf” will also celebrate Old Pro Golf’s 50th anniversary in the resort. From 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., guests can play a game of miniature golf for 50 cents at the Old Pro Golf 136th Street indoor Safari Village and outdoor Caribbean Pirates themed courses. Light refreshments will be served during a gathering from 4-6 p.m. Judy Schoellkopf, Herb’s wife of 22 years, said many former employees have been invited back for the event. Mike Beatty, a.k.a. “DJ Batman,” who worked for Old Pro Golf a number of years ago, will provide the music. Pictures of Old Pro Golf courses throughout the years will be on display. As the Schoellkopf’s sat at a

table near the arcade area and UnderSea Adventure indoor course on 68th Street last Friday, they looked through old photos and reminisced. In the early 1960s, Schoellkopf, who called New Jersey home, was approached about building a miniature golf course in Ocean City, Md. After asking, “Where is Ocean City?” he agreed to design the course and completed the job in 1963. Schoellkopf said he was in the right place at the right time when there was an opportunity to build a course near the Boardwalk fishing pier. It had an Outer Space and Western theme. In 1969, the theme of the pier course changed to the circus and sports. “It didn’t take me long to realize the potential here,” he said. Schoellkopf admitted that in the beginning, he didn’t expect Old Pro Golf to grow as big as it has. In 1964, a Polynesianthemed course opened on 23rd Street. The following

year, he built a course with a circus theme in Playland Amusements, on 65th Street, bayside. As the town grew northward, so did Old Pro Golf. At the time, he was also designing courses along the East Coast for other people. In 1970, Schoellkopf designed an Outer Spacethemed course and a Western-themed course on 65th Street. The next year, a course with a pirate theme was erected at 136th Street. In 1972, a second course was built in that location and it had a Safari theme, and in 1973, a third course was added. It had a Polynesian theme. Two more courses popped up on 28th Street in 1975-76. One had a circus theme and the other a Renaissance castle theme. In the 1990s, those were combined into one 27hole “Medieval Faire” course. Schoellkopf built a Dinosaur themed course on 68th See PLAY on Page 46A

Rosenfeld’s Jewish Deli now open LISA CAPITELLI ■ Assistant Editor (May 3, 2013) A few months after retiring last May as CEO of VennGogh, LLC, a startup social media Web site focusing on nonprofit fundraising and crowd sourcing, at the age of 57, Warren Rosenfeld started to become a bit antsy. When his wife, Dana, asked him if he were only to live another three months, what would he regret not doing? His response was “open a Jewish Deli.” “All of my other businesses I feel I filled a need, a hole, in that marketplace,” he said. “I thought a Jewish deli would do so well [in Ocean City].” He did some research and started planning his menu is September. He gathered menus from about 10 wellknown delis, laid them all on a table and took items from each that he wanted to feature at his establishment. He was familiar with the restaurant business. When he was 12 years old, his parents bought a diner in Washington, D.C. and they operated it for about 18 years. He worked at the diner throughout his teens and into his 20s. Rosenfeld began practicing law at the age of 25 and his office was just a few blocks from the diner. He would still help his family when needed. Rosenfeld, who moved to Ocean Pines in 2008, knew he wanted to open his deli in Ocean City. He looked at a few locations and found the home for his deli in a house-like structure on 63rd Street. In early December, he took over the space that for many years was the Sunshine House Surf Shop, and last summer was Dead Freddie’s Express. A front wrap-around porch was built. Approximately 50 seats are available under cover and another 50 in an uncovered picnic area. There are a few tables inside the deli. Rosenfeld’s Jewish Deli opened Monday. Customers can dine at the deli or take food to go. The delicatessen will be as “authentic as possible,” although it will not be strictly kosher. Its tag line is “Come treat your belly to our Jewish deli.” “We’re trying to be authentic in every way, in look and feel of the traditional old New York Jewish delis,” Rosenfeld said. “We want to do it right.” From the moment a banner advertising the deli was hung up in late December, people have anxiously anticipating its opening. The deli served about 400 people in its first two days open, Rosenfeld said. Breakfast will be available all day. Full lunch and dinner menus will also offered. Traditional Jewish fare along with popular diner meals will be served. Bagels, lox, challah, matzo brei, whitefish, herring, knishes, latkes, blintzes, chopped liver, an assortment of deli meats and cheeses, chicken in the pot and matzo ball soup, are among the items that will be sold. Large portions and huge deli sandwiches will be the delicatessen’s trademark. Traditional deli sandwiches will be

served on rye bread, unless otherwise requested. They include hot corned beef, pastrami and brisket, turkey salami, liverwurst, beef tongue and bologna. The sandwiches are served in three sizes: 8, 12 and 16 ounces. A glass case in front of the deli will feature desserts made by several local bakers. Inside a 1948 refrigerator in the deli are Dr. Brown canned sodas. Platters, catering, deliveries, a grocerylike menu of bagels, whole challah and rye bread loaves, and sliced meats, cheeses, smoked fish, and deli salads sold by the pound will also be available. The smoked fish, knishes and bagel dough will be brought in from Brooklyn and New York City. All bagels will be baked on the premises. Deli meats will be supplied by Saval Foods of Baltimore.

Street in 1991. He moved to Ocean City fulltime from New Jersey in 1991, when he started dating Judy. In 1994, an indoor “Under the Sea” course opened on 68th Street and in 1996, the Polynesian course changed to the “Temple of Dragons” course on 23rd Street. Old Pro Golf celebrated the grand opening of its newest indoor course, Safari Village, along with a family arcade, in 2010. The Caribbean Pirates outdoor course on 136th Street underwent renovations that year, as well. Schoellkopf has been contracted to design, build or rebuild more than 150 courses along the East Coast from Connecticut to South Carolina. At one time in the mid-1960s to early 70s, he owned and operated 13 courses in five states (Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and South Carolina) before localizing the business in Ocean City. All of the courses have 18 holes plus a 19th hole where players can earn a free game. Each Old Pro Golf course has a different atmosphere and style. An “old pro” golfer figure is located at the first hole wel-

coming guests. He is dressed in the course’s respective theme. “We try to make it fun for everybody. There’s a balance between easy and more difficult holes,” Schoellkopf said. There are also many moving parts on each course. Designing these courses takes part imagination and engineering, he said, thus Schoellkopf uses the term “Imagineering,” which he borrowed from Walt Disney, Judy said. Old Pro Golf is a family-operated business. There are currently six courses in four locations in Ocean City. Herb, who is semi-retired, is the president. One son, Jeff, is the chief financial officer and another son, Scott, is the vice president and general manager. Schoellkopf’s daughter, Nancy, is on the board of directors and Judy handles the advertising and marketing. Many family members have also worked for Old Pro Golf over the years. At 92 years young and after 50 years in the business, Schoellkopf is not dwelling on the past. He said there just might be more Old Pro Golf courses popping up in the future.

Pastrami, corned beef among items Continued from Page 45A

The corned beef and brisket are cooked in-house. Jeff Osias is the executive chef and general manager of Rosenfeld’s. There are 10 investors in the business. Rosenfeld is the majority shareholder and managing member. Depending on the deli’s success, Rosenfeld said he would like to expand the business to other locations. The deli will be open Wednesday through Sunday, 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. until Memorial Day weekend. It will be closed the next few Mondays and Tuesdays to stock the shelves and train staff. Beginning Memorial Day weekend, the deli will be open seven days a week. Hours will also be extended into the late evenings. The deli will be open year round.

and decide not to foreclose. And, the bank says that because they are not the legal owners of the home, they aren’t required to maintain them or take any responsibility for them. However, some states are enacting legislation that requires banks to notify of vacant properties through the use of a vacant property registry. In Maryland, a new foreclosure property registry has recently been created that requires banks to register a property only after a foreclosure has been completed, with a fee of $50 if registered within the first 30 days of the foreclosure sale date. — Lauren Bunting is a member of the Coastal Association of Realtors and a licensed REALTOR® with Bunting Realty, Inc. in Berlin.

’TIS THE SEASON! Bring on the sunshine! Annual spring festival kicks off the resort’s busy season with weekend of live music, delectable food and assortment of arts and crafts Springfest, the four-day celebration that traditionally kicks off the start of the resort’s summer season, began Thursday and will continue at the inlet parking lot through Sunday. “I’ve put in an order for great weather,” Tom Shuster, director of the Ocean City Recreation and Parks Department, jokingly said last week of the outdoor festival. “We’re looking to have a great weekend in Ocean City.” Each year, thousands of visitors from across the country travel to Ocean City for Springfest to listen to live music, shop for arts and crafts and sample an array of food. The 2012 festival was well attended, drawing 106,321 visitors in four days to the inlet parking lot at the south-

WHAT: 23rd annual Springfest WHERE: Inlet parking lot WHEN: Friday and Saturday, May 34, 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.; and Sunday, May 5, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. COST: Festivities and most entertainment is free

ern most end of Ocean City. “It’s hard to believe we are celebrating the 23rd annual Springfest. With delicious food, hundreds of unique arts and crafts and free entertainment, it’s no wonder this festival has become a favorite among our residents and visitors for over two decades,” said Jessica Waters, communications manager for the Town of Ocean City. “Whether you

are going with a group of friends or your family, Springfest promises to be a good time for people of any age.” The artisans, food vendors and the entertainers are juried so only the best of the best participate. Organizers do this to keep the festival fresh and new. Aside from a food tent, which features more than two dozen vendors serving everything from Eastern Shore favorites, hot dogs and burgers to deep-fried Twinkies, jumbo turkey legs and alligator, Springfest is also home to two big-top tents that house more than 180 artists and crafters, as well as exhibitors offering commercial and gourmet goods in the midway area. Also featured in the midway area will be the See FESTIVAL on Page 4B

Hurley inducted into Chi Epsilon The parents of Leslie Anne Hurley, Jeff and Sandy Hurley, were notified in April by Southern Methodist University in Dallas that their daughter would be inducted into Chi Epsilon at the university’s Spring Honors Convocation. Her grade point average is 3.82 of a possible 4.0. Chi Epsilon is the national civil engineering honor society of the United States. The society honors engineering students who exemplify scholarship, character, practicality and sociability in civil engineering. Hurley was the 2010 salutatorian graduate of Stephen Decatur High School. She is pursuing a double major and is scheduled to graduate in the spring of 2014 with two degrees; a Bachelor of Science in engineering and a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish language. During her sophomore year, SMU arranged for her to live with a host family in Ecuador in South America and attend Universidad San Francisco de Quito. Spanish is the only language spoken and written in the host home and in the university classes during her time there for one semester. Her grandparents are Janice Davis and the late Arthur Davis, and George and Suzanne Hurley, all of Ocean City.

SHEILA R. CHERRY ■ Associate Editor/Bayside Gazette (May 3, 2013) May is the month that will have visitors to Main Street dancing in the streets as the town and the Berlin Chamber of Commerce prepare for the sixth annual Jazz & Blues Bash on May 4 and May Day Play Day on May 10. According to the chamber, six acts will perform free concerts on two stages from noon until 8 p.m. Saturday.

No outside food or alcohol will be permitted in the festival area, according to the chamber. Horse-and-carriage rides around town

from Ginger, The Baby Please, The Eastern Electric Company, The Jon Pheasant Band and Bond and Bentley. Several downtown business have special events planned, said Economic and Community Development Director Michael Day. Two events will include opening night art exhibits, he said. The Worcester County Arts Council will hold a reception of a new exhibit featuring watercolorist, Charlotte Poore, who will be present to meet and chat with visitors. At the Globe Theater, Patti Backer will show her latest work, “Talking Birds, Sea Creature and Animals I Have Yet To Meet,” a whimsical art show of new paintings and furniture. Backer was voted Local’s Favorite Artist last year in The Globe’s Balcony Art Gallery & Lounge and won a solo show. The exhibit will continue until June 11. Local hand spinner, Nancy Ferguson, the former owner of It’s a Natural, a fiber business, will be demonstrating spinning at A Little Bit Sheepish, Day said. A retiree transplant who has lived here since 2009 and has studied the cultural history of spinning and sheep flocks on the Eastern Shore, Ferguson presents programs and spinning demonstrations at the Tom’s Cove Visitor Center (Virginia) on Assateague Island National Seashore. During the May 10 demonstration, Ferguson will show how yarn was made for centuries before the advent of woolen mills and will have a variety of her breedspecific and naturally dyed yarns available for sale. “Operation We Care” will commence at The Church Mouse during the event. The organization collects donations, snack bars, toiletries or cash donations, which will be used to prepare and pay care packages to Maryland and Delaware serving in Afghanistan troops to commemorate Memorial Day and Veteran’s Day. The event has been organized by Jeff Merritt and a group of citizens in coordination with other civic groups in the area for the past few years. Austin Widdowson, whose multimedia production company, Refresh Media, has relocated to Berlin, is set to open at 2 S. Main St. in the gallery above the streetlevel yarn shop, A Little Bit Sheepish. An open house to introduce the company to the Main Street community is also scheduled for Second Friday.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Taking advice isn’t always easy for self-assured Rams and Ewes who think they know what’s best. But it wouldn’t hurt to listen to what close colleagues have to say. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You know how to balance life’s practical aspects with the poetic. This gives you a special edge this week in both your professional endeavors and your personal life. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Focus on keeping a balance between your home-related activities and your workplace responsibilities. Be mindful of both without obsessing over one or the other. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A change in plans is likely as you discover more facts about a possible commitment. Continue to ask questions and, if you’re not sure about the answers, demand proof. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Be careful not to let that Leonine pride keep you from seeking wise, experienced counsel before making an important decision. A family member once again seeks your help. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) That surge of Virgo energy drives you to take on more work assignments. Be careful you don’t overdo it, or you might find yourself overdone: i.e., burned out. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Your decision to be upfront with colleagues on a touchy matter causes some consternation at first. But in the end, your honesty wins their trust and admiration. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) As in the past, someone again wants to share a secret with you, knowing it will be safe. But do you really want to be this person’s confidante? Think about it. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) As one of nature’s straight shooters, you seek to correct misconceptions about a project. Do so, of course, but without giving away too much too soon. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Creative pursuits continue to be strong in the gifted Goat’s aspect. New friendships can come from sharing these experiences with likeminded art aficionados. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Resolve lingering grumblings over your way of doing things by keeping your mind open to suggestions while continuing to show how your plans will work. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) The perceptive Piscean might find that changing course in midstream isn’t as workable as it would seem. Explore this option carefully before making a decision. BORN THIS WEEK: Your willingness to share your love of life’s good things brings joy to many, including, of course, yourself.

Country music sensation Justin Moore takes the stage tonight SPRINGFFEST 2013 LISA CAPITELLI ■ Assistant Editor (May 3, 2013) Entertainers from across the nation will perform everything from country to rock ‘n’ roll to blues and soul on indoor and outdoor stages this weekend during the 23rd annual Springfest celebration at the inlet parking lot. Headlining Springfest with an 8 p.m. performance tonight, Friday, will be country music sensation, Justin Moore. “I’m trying to think if I’ve ever been that far east,” the self-proclaimed “big seafood guy,” who has a fondness for crab cakes, said Tuesday of visiting the resort area. “I’m looking forward to [coming to Ocean City].” Fans should expect to hear No. 1 hits

such as “Small Town USA,” “If Heaven Wasn’t So Faraway” and “Til My Last Day.” Since 2008, Moore has remained on the charts with many other hits including “Bait a Hook” and “Backwoods.” In 2009, Billboard named Moore “New Country Artist of the Year.” His songs reflect his small-town, southern upbringing mixing traditional and hard-rocking country music. “We’re old-school country with a little bit of southern rock mixed in,” he said. “If we’re having fun on stage, that usually becomes infectious. We try to throw a party for a few hours. “We’ll probably be playing in front of some fans who haven’t seen us before, which is exciting,” he said. Moore has sold more than 4.2 million tracks to date and has earned gold certification on two albums: “Justin Moore”

and “Outlaws Like Me,” which debuted at No. 1. Moore just wrapped up his first headline tour a few weeks ago. He said the tour, which hit about a dozen cities, exceeded expectations. He is currently organizing a 50-60 city fall tour, which will probably kick off in late October and run through May. Moore, who lives in Arkansas, while his band members are based in Nashville, said he will probably do about 140-150 shows this year. He is set to release his third studio album “Off the Beaten Path” this summer, featuring the lead single, “Point At You.” Tickets prices for tonight’s concert range from $20 to $45. As of Monday, only about 80 tickets were still available. Tickets can be purchased at the ticket booth on the Springfest grounds.

Foreigner, a British-American band formed in 1976 by Englishman Mick Jones in New York City, is set to entertain the crowd on Saturday at 8 p.m. “Any part of the East Coast is always fun because a couple of us are from there. Especially for me, being from New Jersey,” guitarist and sax player Tom Gimbel said in an April 24 phone interview. Gimbel said he and most of his bandmates live in California, while Jones resides in New York. “We always look forward to playing no matter where [the location] … We’re thrilled that it’s sold out. We’re grateful people still like this music. We feel very fortunate.” The more than 1,700 fans who purchased tickets for the sold-out show will hear the groups top hits, among others. In the 1980s, the group dominated the See ROCKERS on Page 20B

Crafters, artists, food vendors to fill three tents, midway section SPRINGFFEST 2013 LISA CAPITELLI ■ Assistant Editor (May 3, 2013) Artists, crafters and food vendors from across the country have traveled to Ocean City to present their products during the 23rd annual Springfest celebration, this weekend at the inlet parking lot. More than 180 art and craft vendors have filled the two big top tents, to offer wares such as handcrafted jewelry, candles and scents, soaps, pottery, carvings, home and garden items, fine art, photography, paintings, clothing and apparel, pet products, woodwork and metal ware, among other items. Those who attend the festival annually will see merchandise never before displayed during Springfest, as a number of new vendors are participating this year. Many longtime vendors have returned to sell their products, as well. New Jersey’s Gail Paolino has been hand-painting clothing since 1982. She has participated in Springfest since 1992. “It’s such a wonderful mix of customers from all over,” she said. “I have customers who have purchased from me for over 20 years. So many old acquaintances and new faces, too. They all come to Ocean City to see what’s new for spring [and] summer.”

Noree Woodard, of Nippers Art Studio in Michigan, will make her Springfest debut this year, bringing with her whimsical sculptures such as the fish above. (Left) New Jersey’s Gail Paolino, who has been hand-painting clothing since 1982, will bring her “Daffydills” brand back to Ocean City this weekend.

Each “Daffydills” garment is painted one at a time, she said. They feature fish, palm trees, shells, lighthouses, sandpipers, starfish, seahorses and flip-flops, among a handful of other designs. “This year, customers will see many new fashioned three-quarter sleeve tops, women’s zip and pullover hoodies and as always, the T-shirts to match,” Paolino said.

Chemistry needed for creamy potatoes FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Starchy Russet potatoes perfect for mashing DEBORAH LEE WALKER â&#x2013; Contributing Writer (May 3, 2013) Spring is here, but the wind is howling out of the north with temperatures that are not indicative of this time of year. Just when I thought I could say adios to the bulky attire associated with the frigid months of winter, I must begrudgingly postpone pulling out the anticipated shorts and sandals. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know, maybe Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been snoozing for several months and summer has just slipped away. In the interim, I must succumb to one of my favorite passions without regret. Velvety, mashed potatoes are my heartâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s desire. The dish depends on many culinary chemistry is one of them. There are basically three types of potatoes: one that contains a lot of starch (Russets), those whose texture is waxy (Red Bless), and then there is the category that falls somewhere in the middle (Yukon Gold). Two of these potatoes give you luxurious mashed potatoes and one should be avoided. Can you guess the particular type of potato that does not yield fabulous mashed potatoes? If your an-

swered Red Bliss, you are correct. Mashed potatoes should be made from potatoes that have a high starch content. It is important that your dairy is warmed up before adding it to your mash and equally important, to add the butter first. The amount of water in the dairy combined with the starch molecules makes the potatoes gluey. When you add the butter first, it coats the starch and results in fluffier potatoes. Now that we have a better understanding of mashed potatoes, let us continue on the subject but embark on a different topic that has common roots. Papas rellena are fried balls of ground beef encased in a layer of mashed potatoes. The coveted, crispy crust is obtained by dipping the spheres of joy into an egg wash followed with a coating of panko breadcrumbs. These tempting morsels are quite popular in South American countries, Cuba and Puerto Rico. Both a street food and prepared in homes and restaurants, papas rellena are considered a comfort food at its best. The filling is the next subject at hand. Black olives, tomatoes, peas, carrots, raisins, rice, cilantro, paprika, cumin, garlic and onions are popular options. See BEEF on Page 14B

Daily ‘edjeecation,’ vegan cupcakes and Arbor Day at Northside SENIOR SLANT

Busy writer touches on just about everything this week IRISH KEMP ■ Contributing Writer

The McDermotts “do-si-do” at the St. Andrew Parish Center in Ocean City.

2(0 7(39

(May 3, 2013) Ummm-ummm good! Digesting the Washington Post every morning makes for an ongoing “edjeecation” for this plump old broad. I look forward to the gossip column. Especially when a lobbyist for (take a deep breath on this one) “the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine” uses food to attract the young “Hill” staffers. Elizabeth Kuchinist’s captive audience on Earth Day at the Capitol Visitors Center was so eager to munch on the free lunch of kale chips, cucumber gazpacho and stuffed grape leaves and drink the “reverse osmosis” water that they almost overlooked the vegan cupcakes. And I thought that the green veggies that my baby boomers unwittingly gulped down while watching Howdy Doody was the answer to making them healthy, wealthy and wise. H’mm … two outta three ain’t bad. Vegan cupcakes, how cool is that? Laced with brownies, no doubt. The Arbor Day celebration at our beautiful Northside Park brought back

memories of that valuable piece of real estate in the ’70s. Nancy Howard agreed neither man nor beast or his best friend would dare venture into this bayside jungle in the olden days. The foliage was so thick that when a plane bearing a “Jesus Saves” banner crashed safely on top of it, the pilot was afraid to climb out. Many of the attendees, the likes of Nancy Howard, retired town arborist Greg Purnell, OCDC’s Bob Rothermel, Beautification Committee members Donna Greenwood and Linda Herzberg, and the Ocean City Recreation and Parks Department’s Tom Shuster and Susan Petito, helped make this park “de place to be,” no matter the season. Our little seaside city is full of volunteers working for the good of the community and to help the less fortunate around Delmarva. Folks the likes of the Taylors, Wagners, Stiemlys, Sauers, Staleys, Flaigs, Edwardses, Kyles, DeMarcos, Pietruszkas, Frankowskis and Valernos, the Mathias family and Ruth Biller, come to mind. Thank the Lord for the young entrepreneurs, such as the Carders, Buxbaums and Cetolas who also give of their time, talents and funds to make

Strolling, trolling, rocking and rolling or bowling around town, I found my former Montego Bay Realty teammate, Terri Austin and her bowling team — hon, Frank, Andrea Gowetski, Bob Brenner and that cool guy, Ray Sauerwein. Kudos to Terri and her new team who

came “this close” to capturing top spot. They’re on a roll, but so am I. “Ye Gods! It took four people to replace me!” Also out celebrating May birthdays, around town were Cathy Bocci, Pete O’Connor, Rita Tindall, Nancy Micalizzi, Jack McSwain, Terry Austin, Marlene Wojciechowski and Helen Sobkowiak.

Beef encased in coating of mashed potatoes ‘purely divine’ FOOD FOR THOUGHT Continued from Page 11B

Placing a half-boiled egg in the center of the meat mixture showcases papas rellena to a breakfast option. Even the size of the glorious mounds is up to the individual chef. Aromatic ground beef, encased in a generous coating of mashed potatoes that is sanctified with a crunchy coating is purely divine. A dipping sauce will certainly add to the fiesta of flavors. Improvisation highlights the creativity of chefs. PaPas Rellena Mashed Potatoes Cook 4 pounds of Russet potatoes according to your favorite mashed potato recipe. Set aside for further use.

Meat Filling 1 cup olive oil 2 cups yellow onions, chopped 7 cloves garlic, minced 1 tablespoon ground cumin 1 tablespoon dry oregano 1 tablespoon smoked paprika 12 seedless black olives, chopped 1 cup tomatoes, diced, peeled and seeded 1/2 cup golden raisins 2 teaspoons flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped 2 pounds ground beef kosher salt and fresh ground pepper 1. In a deep sauté pan over mediumhigh heat, add olive oil. Then add spices and vegetables and sauté for 7 minutes, constantly stirring. Add meat, cover, and reduce heat to medium-low and sauté for

25 minutes. Place meat mixture in a colander for 5 minutes and transfer to a pan so it can cool. Breading 6 to 8 eggs whipped in a food processor with 1/2 cup milk 4 cups fine panko breadcrumbs (use a rolling pin to make fine breadcrumbs) 4 cups coarse panko breadcrumbs canola oil for frying assemble 1. Start by portioning the mash potatoes into an 8-ounce ball. Next, flatten the ball with your palm while at the same time maintaining a cup shape in one hand. Then, with an ice cream scooper, fill the potato with the meat filling. Close and seal with mashed potatoes using both hands. Repeat this process with all

the meat/potato balls; refrigerate for at least 3 hours. 2. Set up 1 medium size bowl and 2 shallow pans. The egg wash goes in the bowl and the 2 different types of panko go into the 2 remaining pans. Place the meat/potato ball in the eggs, then in the fine panko, back into the eggs and then into the coarse panko. Carefully set aside. 3. Fill a deep pot about halfway with canola oil and heat to 350 degrees. Carefully place the meat/potato balls into the oil and fry until golden brown. Drain on cooling rack and serve with salsa or salsa ranchera. Makes 8 to 10 large meat/potato balls secret Ingredient: Overlook. “The essence of genius is to know what to overlook” … William James.

Worcester reptile,amphibian search set for May11 (May 3, 2013) Volunteers will scour county land for reptiles and amphibians next Saturday, May 11, during the 13th annual Great Worcester Herp Search. Sponsored by the Coastal Bays Program, Salisbury Zoo, Maryland Department of Natural Resources and Salisbury University, the search kicks off at 9 a.m. at Furnace Town on Old Furnace Road off Route 12 near Snow Hill. A brief pre-hunt training session will feature live turtles, snakes, frogs and salamanders, and explain ways to identify them in the wild. It is free to the public and will be held to prep volunteers for searching four Worcester County sites in the morning and afternoon. Last year, 96 reptiles and amphibians representing 17 species were the result of the search held in Worcester County. Finds included coastal plain milksnakes, ringneck snakes and wormsnakes. Box and spotted turtles were also discovered, along with fence lizards and four species of frogs and toads. In Worcester, there are approximately 19 species of snakes, 15 species of frogs and toads, six species of salamanders, 13 species of turtles, and four species of lizards. The search will provide data to help DNR scientists better understand population trends in this declining group of vertebrates as they continue the first ever Maryland Herp Atlas. This year’s sites include public and

Event to benefit BIT Children’s Foundation Respite House Prog. Watch Kentucky Derby and win prizes during fundraiser at Hooper’s LISA CAPITELLI ■ Assistant Editor (May 3, 2013) Watch the 139th annual Kentucky Derby this Saturday at Hooper’s Crab House and pick the winning horse for the chance to take home prizes, all while helping to raise money for Believe in Tomorrow Children’s Foundation Respite Housing Program. The benefit will take place from 3-7 p.m. under the tent in the parking lot of the West Ocean City restaurant, located at the foot of the Route 50 bridge. Televisions will be set up so guests can view

the race. The event is for the whole family. The cost is $30 in advance and $35 at the door. For children 12 and younger, the cost is $15. Admission cost includes an assortment of food, such as steamed shrimp, crab balls, pulled pork, salad, cream of crab soup and derby pie. There will also be a steamship round carving station, and Sweet Disposition will provide dessert. In addition, there will also be a cash bar, music, trivia contest and a 50/50 raffle. Don’t forget to wear a fun, festive hat. The Best Hat and Most Creative design will win prizes. For the children, there will be games, face painting and a magic show presented by John Donaldson. Guests will have the opportunity to

bet on the horse race for the chance to win prizes. For example, if a person bets $1 and his horse with 4:1 odds wins, he will receive four tickets for a Chinese auction. If that person bets $20, he will receive 80 tickets. Winners may then place their tickets into a container next to the prizes they want to win. “There’s going to be some nice prizes,” said Wayne Littleton, coordinator for the Believe in Tomorrow Children’s Foundation Beach Respite Housing Program. Some of the prizes up for grabs include an iPad, a two-night stay at Coconut Malorie on 59th Street in Ocean City, dinner for 10 people at Sunset Grille in West Ocean City and a dinner package from Hooper’s. “I’ve been wanting to do this type of event for about 12 years, but I never

found the right location for it,” Littleton said. “I think it will be a fun day. If everybody has fun, then I have the chance to make it grow. Hopefully, this will be a yearly event.” Believe in Tomorrow Children’s Foundation Respite Housing Program provides critically ill children and their families a much-needed getaway to the beach from the everyday stresses of a child’s medical illness. The resort facilities include a fourunit apartment building on 66th Street; a house on the bay at 28th Street — the first respite house in the country to focus on the needs of military pediatrics — and a townhouse in Fenwick Island, Del. Rarely is there a time when the facilities are empty. Six families fill the houses each week throughout the summer, typically from mid-May through September. In the off-season — the winter, spring and fall — at least three or four families on average stay at the facilities each week. Last year, approximately 176 families vacationed at the houses, Littleton said. Proceeds from the May 4, event will help fund activities such as weekly cookouts for the children and their families who stay at one of the houses. For additional information, call Littleton at 410-723-2842 or Hooper’s Crab House at 410-213-1771.

BOARD WALKIN’ FOR PETS Approximately 250 people walked a dog during the Worcester County Humane Society’s 14th annual Board Walkin’ for Pets event on the Boardwalk last Saturday. As of earlier this week, more than $30,000 had been collected during the fundraiser for the West Ocean City facility and donations were still coming in, according to humane society Director Kenille Davies. Funds generated go toward the general costs of running the no-kill nonprofit shelter. Those expenses include food bills, cat litter, veterinary care such as spaying or neutering, vaccines, heartworm and flea preventive, medicines, shots, cleaning supplies and maintenance. About a dozen shelter dogs were walked by volunteers. Davies said several adoptions are pending. OCEAN CITY TODAY/LISA CAPITELLI

charts with “Waiting for a Girl Like You,” “Juke Box Hero,” “Urgent” and “I Want To Know What Love Is.” Foreigner has 16 Top 30 hits. Nine of those are Top 10 hits. With a career spanning more than 30 years, the group continues to release new music and tour. Gimbel said the group will perform more than 100 shows this year. “We just never stop. We just keep doing shows. It’s crazy, but it’s fun,” he said. “It’s rare to have that many songs that so many people know. We always

get people coming up to us after shows saying, ‘I knew just about every song.’ It happens more and more.” Gimbel said Foreigner is a “real energetic type of band” and concertgoers should expect to hear the songs performed exactly how they remember them. “Our lead singer, Kelly Hansen, is insane. He wants people to get up on their feet, stomp, cheer and yell,” Gimbel said. “It’s just a really fun night. People should expect to hear all the songs they want to hear and expect to hear them done the way they remember them being done.” Foreigner released its latest album,

“Feels Like the First Time,” in September. The Billboard Chart three-disc set includes new digital studio recordings of the band’s greatest hits, a DVD of its nationally broadcast PBS TV special, and “Acoustique,” a CD featuring a fresh unplugged studio approach to some of Foreigner’s most memorable music. “Feels Like the First Time” debuted in the Billboard Top 200 chart at No. 43, selling more than 10,000 units. Though headline acts require an admission fee, there are many performances on the inside and outside stages that are free. Scheduled to entertain today through

Sunday are Rick K & The Allnighters, Front Page News, 21 Horses Band, 9 Mile Roots, The Reagan Years, Oh Boy! A Tribute to Buddy Holly, J.R. Booker, Sir Rod, Randy Lee Ashcraft & The Saltwater Cowboys and the Ocean City Recreation Dancers.

“I am very excited about participating in Springfest this year because my art is specifically related to a beach environment … Ocean City has always been a very special place to me and was my home before moving to Maui,” said Klipp, who was a painter and glass sculptor in Maui, Hawaii, for 20 years, specializing in marine life. “I still return to participate in the Pacific Whale Foundation art and awareness festival every year

on Maui. I try to educate people about conserving our beaches and keeping our oceans clean while promoting the ‘Save our Turtles’ and other Green Peace organizations that support our endangered animals of the sea.” Klipp makes hand sculpted, glass blown marine life, such as dolphins, turtles, manatees, marlin, mermaids and divers mounted on exotic wooden bases. Another item she offers is a Maryland Blue Crab Christmas ornament. She is also promoting a new product this year that has become her most pop-

ular item. “Every year I participate in Christmas art shows blowing glass, I receive numerous requests for the ‘Traditional Christmas Pickle Ornament.’ I spend half of the year just making pickles to fill the supply and demand,” said Klipp, who has become known as “The Pickle Lady.” “The glass blown ‘pickle ornament’ is not only unique in itself, but I package every pickle in its own little glass pickle jar that includes the tradition and story of the pickle ornament. It is a wonderful fun new product that I am enjoying selling

throughout the year in addition to my ocean life.” Before, during or after shopping, stop by the food tent or gourmet area in the midway section, where more than 40 vendors will be offering a variety of items including fried oysters, crab fluff, jumbo turkey legs, fried alligator, gyros, Oriental foods, blooming onion petals, barbecue, seafood, hot dogs, burgers, fries, chicken, Italian sausage, as well as deepfried Twinkies and candy bars, funnel cake, Kettle Korn, homemade chocolate and fudge and cinnamon roasted nuts.

Local teen gives national attention to issues on self-esteem, peer pressure SHEILA R. CHERRY ■ Associate Editor/Bayside Gazette (May 3, 2013) “Popularity: It’s Not What You Think,” a story narrating a young girl’s experiences with the attraction and consequences of yielding to peer pressure, was written by Stephen Decatur Middle School student Lily Rakow and published in the April/May edition of Discovery Girls magazine. In an April 30 interview, Rakow, a seventh grader, said she was inspired to do the article because of her sixth-grade experience of “hanging out with some girls who were not so nice.” She said the article was based on her real life story, but the editors fictionalized some of the details and changed the names of the characters. She wanted to share her thoughts and advice with other girls, according to her instructional technology coach, Joan Bauer. In an April 12 correspondence, Bauer said Rakow had submitted an article to Discovery Girls magazine online. “After a few months of editing and corresponding with the magazine, her article is featured in the April/May issue,” Bauer said. Not only did Rakow’s article make it into the magazine, it was also featured on the cover. In the article, Rakow discussed the typical social pecking order of kid-dom

and it is clear that the hallway hierarchy hasn’t changed much over the years. There are still the bookworms and nerds, bullies and their targets, and popular kids and those who desperately want to be. Rakow is in the latter group and her writing illustrates the emotional perspective from both sides of the social divide among the school-aged crowd. It isn’t pretty — although, ironically, that is the goal — and she chronicles her tortured decision to let loose of the “popular girl” brass ring, once she has had it placed within her grasp. Once in with the “in” group, she finds that it’s not all that. The brevity of the piece might give some casual readers the impression that the reversal Rakow knowingly made was easy. But anyone who has ever been, or raised, a teenaged girl would know that what Rakow described is a brave stand for a young person. It may serve as inspirational and reassuring to other young girls facing similar self-esteem challenges. After the publication of the article, Rakow said most of her classmates were excited for her – one of the girls she described in the article even became her friend again. The other, “Not so much,” she said. But that really doesn’t matter, she said. “Because I have better friends now.”
