“What we want to stress is government does not do it by itself,” said Joe Theobald, the town’s Emergency Services Director. “It’s a partnership. Everybody has their piece to do.” Individuals should have an evacuation plan and a backup plan in place well before a storm hits, for example. They should prepare by assembling an emergency kit — everything from flashlights and batteries to a first aid kit, battery-powered radio, non-perishable food, a can opener, bottled See HURRICANE Page 10

By Clara Vaughn Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) Delmarva Power with the Town of Ocean City and other local groups held a conference Wednesday to remind the public to be prepared for strong storms now that hurricane season has arrived. “Even though fewer storms are predicted this year, it only takes one storm to cause property damage and widespread power outages,” said Jim Smith, Delmarva Power’s senior public affairs manager.

By Zack Hoopes Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) Despite some fireand-brimstone predictions, the anticipated “college takeover” this past weekend failed to live up to the hype if it ever even existed at all. What did materialize, though, was a banner showing from police, who received virtually universal praise for a strong presence that many local leaders hope will continue throughout the rest of June’s senior week influx. “Going into it, you could sense the apprehension, the uneasiness in the community. But as we worked into the weekend, we started to see that change,” said Ocean City Police Department Chief Ross Buzzuro. “After some time went by without any major incidents, and people saw the police presence, the thoughts changed from negative to very, very positive.” The OCPD had all hands on deck for the weekend, calling virtually all of its personnel for overtime in anticipation of a deluge of college-age visitors from the DC metro area. Being June, this influx would come when the resort was already packed with high school graduates, who present a law enforcement challenge on their own. Officers in bright yellow vests were stationed at virtually every street end on the Boardwalk for the evenings of Friday, June 6 and Saturday, June 7. Vehicle patrols rode two to a car, and Coastal Highway also had a strong showing from the Maryland State Police and the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office as well. “You felt the presence, even if you didn’t see them,” said Bob Givarz, owner of the Alaska Stand on the Boardwalk at Ninth Street. “If the guy stationed outside my place walked away, you knew in a few minutes a bike guy or a horse guy was going to come by.”

WHILE SUPPLIES LAST!

“I thought the response was great,” said Will Savage, owner of the Majestic Hotel on Seventh Street and the Boardwalk. “The police just being there cut off any problems before they started. We had no issues at all.” OCPD data indicates that, indeed, nothing was out of line for a usual June weekend. Total calls for service over the period from Thursday, June 5 to Monday, June 9 numbered 1,285, up only eight percent from the same span over the second weekend of June last year. Notably, however, enforcement on Friday was particularly intense with 242 of the period’s total calls, versus 150 last year, indicating a strong initial show of strength from law enforcement. Arrests were up 26.6 percent to 219 – but a quick look through the police blotter indicates the vast majority of these were for disorderly conduct and marijuana, not for more serious crimes. While drug arrests were up 22.6 percent to 76 total, DUIs and See POLICE Page 3

Continued from Page 1 weapons arrests were flat at 18 and 23, respectively. “The crowd seemed to me like the same kind of crowd we had last June,” said City Council Secretary Mary Knight. “I think it turned into a great weekend. The police presence was amazing” “I’ve been here for a long time, and honestly this was one of the more relaxed ‘senior week’ weekends I’ve seen,” said Councilman Brent Ashley, a former motel and rental owner of many decades. “Comparatively, I think this was a big success.” Two weeks ago, local law enforcement was alerted to a social media-fueled gathering in Ocean City set to take place the first full weekend in June. The event was promoted largely via the Twitter hashtags #CollegeTakeover and #CollegeBeachWeek, the same marks that had been used for gatherings in Virginia Beach and Myrtle Beach, which saw increases in violent crime and large-scale riots and thefts during events that drew tens of thousands. The buzz around a gathering in Ocean City appeared to have originated with the website partyheadzdc.com, which was not involved with the prior events. But in all instances, the promotion was directed at a young, urban, almost entirely African-American crowd.

Pretty much an average seasonal weekend Continued from Page 3 state over the same period. “It’s just the demographics of our area,” Knight said. “We’re not Idaho or North Dakota. We’re in driving distance of most the major metro areas on the east coast.” The question now is how intensely the city will keep up its police presence, especially during the OC Air Show next weekend. Last year, a number of high-profile crimes saw many show patrons complain to the city about the type of crowd present outside the show grounds – and caused some local leaders, in turn, to place the blame on the OC Car & Truck Show, which happened to take place the same weekend and typically draws a more urban clientele. This year, however, the two events are on successive weekends and not

concurrent. But the town is still planning strong police visibility to calm fears that some crowds won’t get along with others. “The message is, and will continue to be, that we’re not going to judge you on how you look, we’re going to judge you on your actions,” Buzzuro said. “We’re fortunate that this year we have a much better placement of events, but we realize we’re still going to be busy. What you’re going to see is that we’re going to maximize our resources and continue to have visibility.” Further, the OCPD has received praise in the past several days the demeanor of its officers, which created a sense of security without being overbearing. “It was great to see the officers and how friendly they were,” Knight said, “just out there meeting people, talking

to people, smiling and answering questions.” Buzzuro himself has been lauded for his hands-on approach, and for orchestrating what is seen as a sharp turnaround from the negative tone that took hold after last year’s June experience. “It sends the message that there’s a new sheriff in town, so to speak,” Ashley said. “It shows that we hired the right guy for the job.” “We knew that his background was in Baltimore’s Inner Harbor, which is extremely safe,” Knight said. “Everything we’ve gotten so far is ‘thank you, please send my regards to the Chief.’” A number of businesses have reportedly asked the city to continue the heightened visibility for the entirety of June. “The interest is definitely there,”

Ashley said. “Funding is naturally the big question, but it’s worth looking into.” “I would like to see it, maybe not the extent we had it, but I would like to see more officers on patrol,” Knight said. “I think it was money well spent.” Even if the cost-benefit ratio on June’s young visitors is not ideal, the consensus seems to be that it’s better than nothing. “If the seniors weren’t here, there’d be nothing through the week,” Shockley said. “June is driven by the weekend events, and they’re the only thing we have consistently through the weekdays.” “This month is always difficult, but it’s a problem of success,” Givarz said. “How great is it to have this problem, rather than not being able to get them over the bridge?”

By Zack Hoopes Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) Salisbury-based construction firm Gillis Gilkerson is gearing up to oversee the construction of the new Ocean City Beach Patrol headquarters, after having won the city’s first-ever construction management bid for the project. Earlier this year, the city decided to change its bidding process and, instead of hiring a general contractor directly, hire a management firm who would then oversee both the final design of the project and the hiring of subcontractors. “It’s a much more seamless operation, where the people who have to build it are involved earlier on,” said Gillis Gilkerson President Dwight Miller. Critically, Gillis Gilkerson is only receiving $25,000 up-front for preconstruction work on the project. The firm will then bid out to sub-contractors, and present the final schedule of costs to the city before construction begins. “We would get all those sub-contractor packages together and si down with the city to make sure they’re

OCEAN CITY TODAY/CLARA VAUGHN

Roman Jesien, science coordinator at the Maryland Coastal Bays Program, logs terrapin turtle sightings last Thursday, part of a larger effort by several groups of Coastal Bays staff and volunteers to identify where the turtles gather.

State Coastal Bays Program keeps an eye on terrapins

AFFORDABILITY AND FLEXIBILITY

By Clara Vaughn Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) Environmental studies major Adam Brown scans the shoreline for small, black dots floating in the water. “I’ve got one,” he says, cuing Maryland Coastal Bays Program’s Roman Jesien to mark the site using GPS. “You want to make a mental note of where you saw them because they’ll come back up. Double-check that it’s not a stick,” Jesien said. They are counting Maryland’s reptile mascot, the Diamondback Terrapin. Every summer for the past four years, Maryland Coastal Bays Program staff and volunteers have done a fiveday sweep of this area’s bays and shoreline, hoping to catch a glimpse of those black or blue-grey dots — the turtles’ heads — floating in the water. The idea behind the terrapin survey is to learn more about the little-under-

stood species, Jesien said. “People were saying various things. Turtles were in dire straits. Other people said there were plenty of terrapins,” he said. “There’s really no consensus on how turtles are doing.” That sparked the bay-wide surveys, a “turtle blitz” each spring in Maryland’s Coastal Bays as well as the Chesapeake Bay to get a snapshot of how many turtles are lining the shore and where. Here, five teams did the surveys by boat or kayak last week. The idea seems simple: “We go along the shoreline (for one to two hours and) we count the number of turtle heads,” Jesien said. But the method proved effective in a 2009 study on a rapid-assessment technique for counting Diamondback Terrapins, which found a good correlation between the number of heads counted and the number of turtles caught using labor-intensive, aquatic sampling. Surveys take place in the spring,

Bay researchers survey waters for Diamondbacks

when warming water temperatures draw turtles out, likely before spawning, Jesien said. Though the surveys are relatively new, they are already shedding some light on the lifestyles of Maryland’s state reptile. Certain areas have high concentrations of turtles, for example, and they seem to congregate on less-developed shoreline and marsh fringes. Other areas such as bulkheads prove inhospitable to terrapins “That’s one of the main things we’re looking for — why they are where they are,” said Coastal Bays Program Manager Bill Mahoney, who did the count with Brown and Jesien last Thursday. “The turtles are kind of a canary in the coal mine, habitat-wise,” Jesien said. “If there’s good habitat for turtles, there’s going to be good habitat for other species. “If turtles are abundant at one time and not another, something’s amiss and we need to look at it.” One major threat to the turtles is habitat loss as shorelines increasingly give way to development. Man-made bulkheads, designed to prevent shoreline erosion, have none of the fringing shoreline — the kind found in marshes — that the turtles favor. The turtles are also apt to spend time in underwater grass beds and the marsh, where they are more protected. “Loss of habitat is a big thing,” Mahoney said. Another threat is global warming since temperature determines terrapins’ sex. Warmer temperatures mean more females, with about 82 degrees serving as the pivot-point, according to 2006 study of turtles in Jamaica Bay, New York. “You can’t have all males or all females,” Mahoney said. “There’s concern about a lot of long-term threats… that keep us on our toes.” It’ll take the Coastal Bays Program and its volunteers at least five years to get a good grasp on where the turtles are, though seven or eight years would provide more complete data, Jesien said. “We’d like to have some kind of map that indicates where turtles aggregate and how consistent those aggregations are,” he said. “The next thing we’d like to do is see what they’re doing in those aggregations.” This is especially important because terrapins tend to return to the same nesting sites, he said, meaning development on those sites could pose a major threat. But the terrapins gather in surprising places, including along local golf courses and behind some of Ocean City’s most popular watering holes. “I’m always amazed at how resilient these little creatures are,” Jesien said. “If you give them a little habitat, they can withstand development.” He’s even found a turtle nesting in a sandy area of an Applebee’s parking lot.

Officials stress public’s hurricane readiness Continued from Page 1 water and emergency phone numbers. “Anything that you think is essential, you need to put in there,” said Delmarva Power’s Matt Likovich, media relations manager. “A storm kit can be anything anybody thinks is important.” He recommended putting the kit in a cooler so its contents stay dry in case of flooding and reminded the crowd that kits should provide for a family for several days without electricity. When a storm is approaching, individuals should be vigilant about keeping up-to-date on warnings and other information, said Fred Webster, director of emergency services for Worcester County. “Pay attention to advisories and information that comes out of… the Town of Ocean City’s Emergency

Management Office, or the county’s emergency management office or the state’s emergency management office,” he said. “If we tell you it’s time to evacuate, it’s time to go.” Sue Rantz, Chief Animal Control Officer for Worcester County, noted that storm preparation should take pets into account, too. “Hurricane Katrina opened the country’s eyes to a catastrophic oversight that did not include animals in personal and public disaster planning,” leaving 600,000 animals dead or without shelter, she said. “This caused needless suffering and death, but the recognition has led to many changes,” Rantz said. For example, emergency shelters and transportation accept families with their animals now. She urged pet owners to kept an

POLICE/COURTS

Theft suspect

The Worcester County Sheriff’s Office was called to the Wal-Mart on Route 50 near Berlin on June 7 because of an attempted theft and assault. The suspect, pictured, was stopped by Walmart loss prevention and later became combative and ran from the store. The Sheriff’s Office is attempting to identify the man. He is white, with gray to blonde hair and stands approximately 5-11. Anyone with information regarding his Identity is asked to call the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office 410-632-1111 and ask for Cpl. Dale Trotter.

Indecent exposure

A young man and woman were charged June 3 with indecent exposure after an Ocean City police officer interrupted their sexual encounter in a car by shining his flashlight on them. The two were parked in a lighted space near Third Street and Chicago Avenue. Two police officers were on Bike Patrol when they noticed a man walk by the car. The man seemed disturbed by what he saw, so the police officers had a look. One police officer illuminated the car’s interior with his flashlight to make the couple aware of their presence. After the man, 20, and the woman, 18, got dressed, the woman told police the sexual encounter was consensual. Then police charged both of them with indecent exposure.

Weapons violation

Ocean City Police went to a unit on Robin Drive at about 12:30 a.m. June 4 after getting a report of a drug violation. Four young women went to the door and the one who had rented the unit said males had been there and had smoked marijuana. Because of their drug use, she asked them to leave. The young woman said police could search the unit and during that search, police found Chandler T. Davenport, 18, of Frederick, standing behind the bathroom door, trying to hide. An officer smelled the odor of marijuana and saw ashes and a marijuana stem in the toilet. Then he asked Davenport if he had any drugs and weapons on him. Davenport said he did not have either and told the officer he could search him. The officer searched Davenport, found a 3-inch fixed blade knife with black duct tape wrapped around its handle and charged him.

Alleged assault

Wizzard Stephen Richard Degruttalo, 32, of Totowa, N.J., was charged June 8 at about 12:25 a.m. with disorderly conduct and second-degree assault after allegedly yelling at a man and punching him in the face. An Ocean City police officer witnessed the incident and wrote in the charging document that approximately 100 people were watching and several of them were terrified.

Disorderly juvenile

Worcester County Sheriff’s Office deputies were conducting a business check at Third Street and Baltimore Avenue at about 9 p.m. June 6 when they saw a male yelling at a group of people inside the hotel. Deputies identified the male as a juvenile from Delaware. He was taken to the Ocean City Police Department at 65th Street and charged with disorderly conduct. He was released pending action from the Department of Juvenile Service.

Fight

Deputies witnessed a fight in the area of Fifth Street near Philadelphia Avenue at about 1 a.m. June 7. They identified the main aggressor as Michael Anthony Soper Jr., 19, of Perry Hall. Deputies and law enforcement officers from allied agencies broke up the fight without any further incident. Soper was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct and affray.

Indecent exposure

While conducting a welfare check on a public transit bus near Eighth Street and Baltimore Avenue at about 9 p.m. June 7, deputies saw Olajuwon Hakeem Brown, 19, of Aberdeen, expose his buttocks to the passengers on the bus. After a short foot chase, they arrested Brown and charged him with indecent exposure and disorderly conduct.

Fugitive arrest

Maryland State Police received an anonymous call June 6 about a fugitive who was reportedly hiding out in Louisiana and staying at

PAGE 13

a motel in Golden Meadow. The fugitive was identified as Ronald Flawd, 49, formerly of Ocean City. Police verified that Flawd was wanted for violation of probation in Maryland and that he had outstanding warrants in Pennsylvania. Police at the Berlin barrack contacted Louisiana police, who located and arrested Flawd. Because of Flawd’s previous charges and violent history, Louisiana authorities utilized a SWAT team to arrest him. In 2010, Flawd was found guilty in Circuit Court in Snow Hill of second-degree assault and sentenced to five years in prison. He was found not guilty of attempted murder.

Marijuana

A deputy on bike patrol on 15th Street near Philadelphia Avenue at about 6:30 p.m. June 7 stopped a vehicle after seeing that the driver was not wearing a seatbelt. While speaking with the driver, Shyheim Lamar White, 20, of Cambridge, the deputy detected the odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle, searched the vehicle and found marijuana. White was charged with possession of marijuana.

food

Marijuana

While talking to a young woman who was sitting in a vehicle in front of a downtown motel at about 12:05 a.m. June 7, a deputy detected the odor of marijuana. During the investigation, four people left the motel and told the deputy they were with the young woman. All were detained while a search was conducted. Suspected marijuana was located. Mary Althea Ortiz, 22, and Matthew Eduardo Thomas, 18, both of Washington, D.C., were charged with possession of marijuana and possession of paraphernalia.

fun

Marijuana

Deputies on foot patrol on South Baltimore Avenue near Somerset Street at about 11:45 p.m. June 8 approached two men who smelled of marijuana. They detained the men and found suspected marijuana on Jarrold O. McFadden Jr., 21, of Hagerstown. They charged him with possession of marijuana.

By Zack Hoopes Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) Despite the usual litany of complaints following May’s Cruisin’ OC event, numbers from the Ocean City Police Department indicate that traffic enforcement actually declined this year to pre-2012 levels. However, other enforcement issues continued to rise, with both police and event organizers concerned about the increasing numbers of hangers-on who congregate in town outside of the event. “The event itself is not the problem, but often times it’s those that come to town to try to ‘run with the pack,’ if you will, who cause trouble,� said Cruisin’ OC organizer Bob Rothermel. Critically, Rothermel’s vintage car show takes place entirely in the inlet parking lot and draws a relatively older crowd. However, the event weekend draws a number of other automotive enthusiasts who are not participating in the show, but gathering on streets and in parking lots where they often drink, harass other motorists, and leave copious amounts of trash. According to OCPD data, officers issued a total of 721 traffic warnings and

UTILITY BOX PAINTING The latest Delmarva Power utility box has been painted under the OCDC Public Art Program on the north side of the Ocean City Library at 100th Street. Seth Nedrow, library assistant, came up with the idea to base the mural on the best-selling children's book, "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom" by Bill Martin Jr. and John Archambault and illustrated by Lois Ehlert. Fortunately, the library also has an artist on staff, Michael Carmean, who was able to paint it. To view other painted utility boxes visit the Ocean City Development Corporation’s Web site at www.ocdc.org. The OCDC is a nonprofit organization that is charged with revitalizing downtown Ocean City.

(June 13, 2014) Joan Marie Bodley, assistant vice president and document preparation supervisor for PNC Bank, National Association, has filed for Worcester County Clerk of the Circuit Court. Bodley, an 18-year resident of Worcester County, says her banking management experience and fresh perspective are a perfect fit for the position. “For 25 years I have helped keep expenses down for my company through the management positions I’ve held,” she said. “I will be able to apply the same tools as Clerk of the Court to benefit the taxpayers of the county I love.” Bodley’s current department at PNC Bank has used “paper-less workflow” for over five years. She will be effective in helping the current staff members to become comfortable utilizing the Maryland Electronic Court paperless filing system. Bodley believes a good work environment, up-to-date skills training, and meeting the needs of taxpayers are paramount qualities for a successful manager. “I strive in my current position to provide the best customer service and to manage those that work for me with respect,” she said. “It is very important to me that there is an open line of com-

munication in the office and a pleasant atmosphere so that the taxpayer’s needs can be met.” Bodley moved to Worcester County 18 years ago, living in Pocomoke City prior to moving to Ocean Pines in 2010. Her two children have graduated from the Worcester County School System where she served as treasurer of the PTA for several years along with various Board of Education Committees. She has also served on the Executive Board of the Pocomoke Chamber of Commerce, the Parish Council of Holy Name of Jesus Catholic Church, and the Lower Shore YMCA. After earning her paralegal degree from Villa Julie College in 1985 she embarked on what is now a 30-year career in the banking industry with 25 of those years managing anywhere from eight to 40 employees at a time. During this time, Bodley honed her skills on balancing budgets, filing and reviewing documents, managing and motivating individuals to work as a team, and making tough decisions to allow for efficient workflows and excellent customer service.

MML CONFERENCE Abby Gruber and Dennis Frazier man the Westminster booth during this week’s Maryland Municipal League Convention at the Ocean City convention center on 40th Street.

Homebuyers can claim federal tax credit up to $2K

(June 13, 2014) Eligible homebuyers can claim a federal income tax credit of up to $2,000 for the life of their mortgage under a new program unveiled last week by Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development Secretary Raymond A. Skinner. DHCD’s Maryland HomeCredit program provides eligible home buyers with a mortgage credit certificate allowing them to claim a tax credit for some portion of the mortgage interest rate paid each year on their federal income tax returns. “We believe the Maryland HomeCredit program will make home ownership that much more affordable, particularly for first-time home buyers who are in many ways the foundation of the housing market,” Skinner said during the annual conference of the Maryland Mortgage Bankers Association in Columbia. The program launches June 1 and continues through Dec. 15, 2015. A buyer purchasing a home during that period is eligible to claim 25 percent of the interest paid as a federal tax credit for every year the mortgage is outstanding and they live in the home. The home buyer must get the Maryland HomeCredit at the time they close on their mortgage. There are fees associated with the Maryland HomeCredit. Refinances are not eligible. In addition, home buyers can take advantage of the competitive rates and significant down payment assistance through the Maryland Mortgage Program, the state’s flagship homeownership program, Skinner said. For more information and a list of lenders that are approved to issue the Maryland HomeCredit, visit http://mmp. maryland.gov.

By Nancy Powell Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) The Pennsylvania man who participated in the July 23, 2013 robbery of PNC Bank in West Ocean City was sentenced Monday to 15 years in prison. In Circuit Court in Snow Hill, Judge Richard Bloxom sentenced Dale Mentzer, 36, of Dale Mentzer Newmanstown, to 15 years behind bars for robbery and 15 years for conspiracy to commit robbery. The sentences will be served concurrently and because they were crimes of violence, Mentzer must serve at least 50 percent of the sentence. A jury found Mentzer guilty of the crimes April 2 after hearing testimony that Mentzer drove Heath Derizzo, 37, of Harrisburg, Pa., to the bank. Derizzo entered the bank, told the teller he wanted to make a withdrawal and handed a note demanding money. Derizzo testified that he was a career criminal and such a bad driver that he had not driven since age 17. He and Mentzer, who had known each other for 19 years, came to Ocean City with a young woman and spent their time sleeping, visiting the Boardwalk briefly and smoking crack. When they ran out of money for crack, Derizzo testified, Mentzer told him to do his thing, which meant rob a bank. So Mentzer drove to West Ocean City, but they went too early and the bank was not open. They parked in the Wawa parking lot to wait. They found enough change in the car to buy breakfast sandwiches. After more than an hour at Wawa, Mentzer drove to the Food Lion parking lot and parked behind some shrubbery behind PNC Bank. There, they continued to wait for the bank to open. When it did, Derizzo testified, he committed the robbery, which took only 25 seconds and then returned to the car. Mentzer then drove to the Ocean City hotel, roused the young woman and another woman who had joined them, and then drove to Salisbury to purchase crack. On their way to Salisbury, they saw and heard a police car rushing to the bank. Detectives located the group in Salisbury. During his interrogation, which was played in court during the trial, Mentzer said he had “done a substantial amount of time in jail,” where he “maxed out after 16 years.” He surmised that he would be going behind bars again for his involvement in the PNC Bank robbery. He was right.

Minor infractions lead to several handgun seizures Police find weapons while pursuing other area crimes

By Nancy Powell Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) Minor infractions led to the discovery of handguns in Ocean City during the past several days. During the early morning hours of June 8, Worcester County Sheriff’s Office deputies saw two men crossing South Baltimore Avenue without using the crosswalk. The deputies tried to stop the men, but one of them refused to stop and ran away. They chased him for about 100 yards and during the chase, they saw him make a throwing motion with his hands. The deputies deployed a Taser on him and after a brief struggle, they arrested him. While searching the area, a loaded .44 caliber magnum revolver was recovered and seized. Later, the man said he had run because he did not want to be caught with the gun. The suspect was identified as Weldon Lamont Turner, 19, of Salisbury. Turner was charged with wearing and carrying a dangerous weapon concealed on his person, carrying and transporting a handgun, intentionally resisting a lawful arrest and willfully failing to obey a reasonable and lawful order of a law

Officers find multiple handguns

possession of marijuana after finding some of the drug in a plastic bag. During the early morning hours of June 3, Ocean City police stopped a car on Philadelphia Avenue at Eighth Street because its front lamps were not lit as required by state traffic law. While walking to the car, the officer detected the odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle. Inside, two passengers were sleeping. The officer told the driver, Jabari M. Robinson, 18, of Silver Spring, and his passengers, Naim R. Reid, 20, and Jared Dylan Thompson, 19, of Clarksburg to exit the car and sit on the curb, which they did. While one officer talked to the men, another officer searched the car and found a handgun in a Discovery Education book bag, according to the charging documents. Reid reportedly said the handgun

belonged to him and further search of the book bag revealed a wallet containing an insurance card with his name on it. The officer also found a large Mason jar containing small pieces of marijuana, a digital scale, torn pieces of plastic wrap and a clear plastic bag with additional small pieces of marijuana in a black computer bag. All three men, who had no place to stay, were arrested and police found a small digital scale and marijuana on Reid. They also found pictures of marijuana and text messages about marijuana in Robinson’s IPhone. In Thompson’s IPhone, police found a photograph of a large quantity of marijuana in a glass jar and a video showing the handgun that was recovered. According to the charging document, police believed the three men were participating in drug trafficking

and planned to sell marijuana while they were in Ocean City. They based this on the text messages, photographs, absence of a residence to stay and the strong odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle. Also according to that document, police believe the men had the handgun in the car to protect them from people trying to rob them while they completed drug transactions. The men were charged with possession of less than 10 grams of marijuana, having a handgun in a vehicle, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of marijuana with the intent to distribute it and possession of a handgun in a drug trafficking crime, but the District Court commissioner found no probable cause for the latter three charges against Thompson and Robinson . The commissioner did find probable cause for the charge of possession of paraphernalia against Reid.

Rental home overcrowding concerns grow Housing many visitors in one single-family residence violates three city codes By Zack Hoopes Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) There goes the neighborhood. In light of a recent discussion about the matter at the city’s Planning and Zoning Commission, many residents of the resort’s few remaining owner-occupied neighborhoods are reporting a significant uptick this season in formerly single-family homes being used as overcrowded tourist lodging. “There are a couple of overcrowding issues that happened over Memorial Day weekend, which we’re currently keeping an eye on,” said city

Planning and Community Development Director Matt Margotta. But residents say that if the city does not start acting faster, their neighborhoods will end up the real estate equivalent of the thylacine, pushed to extinction by the dingo of an ever-tighter rental market. “If they want people to stop doing what they’re doing, they have to start enforcing the law somehow,” said Steven Cirile, who runs a recording studio out of his home on North Surf Road in the Caine Woods area of the resort. According to Cirile, a formerly single-family home on his street is now renting to large groups of people – 23 over Memorial Day, he said, who held loud, raucous parties and harassed residents. “I have elderly neighbors who

ended up literally locking themselves in their house because of it,” Cirile said. “It’s not right.” Housing dozens of vacationers in a single-family residence typically violates three parts of the city’s code. Firstly, any noise complaints can be referred to the town’s noise board, putting black mark on the property’s rental license and possibly causing the board to revoke the owner’s rental rights. Secondly, having a number of persons beyond the fire safety code limit will cause a fine and possibly immediate eviction from the fire marshal. Thirdly, in areas zoned R-1 – which allows only single-family residences – the city prohibits more than four unrelated persons occupying the same house, to protect the intended character of the neighborhood.

However, enforcement of these statutes is largely complaint-driven, and an immediate resolution is not guaranteed unless city officials arrive in time to see violations in the act. “It kind of depends what’s going on, but usually the police are the first ones to arrive,” Margotta said. “Depending on what they observe, they may refer it to us as a zoning violation, and depending on the situation, it may be something where you fine somebody or not.” “It doesn’t immediately solve the problem,” Margotta said. “When you’re in a family neighborhood, it comes as quite a surprise…I certainly understand where [residents] are coming from.” According to Cirile, multiple calls to the police over the weekend resulted in officers not arriving in time to personally witness the problems. Only a call to an elected official netted him a timely response, Cirile said. Zoning officials did not respond until Monday evening, after the renters had left. The owner of the property was notified that complaints had been received and was informed of city’s statutes, Margotta said. Requirements for city rental licenses do mandate that owners record the names and personal information of all individuals staying at their property at a given time, al-

Façade improvements reach 150 with recent ceremony Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown in town at ribbon cutting to celebrate OCDC project

OCEAN CITY TODAY/CLARA VAUGHN

Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown and other officials join homeowner June Regan in cutting the ribbon in front of her newly renovated home on 11th Street.

By Clara Vaughn Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) The Ocean City Development Corporation marked its 150th Façade Improvement Project downtown Tuesday with a ribboncutting ceremony on 11th Street. Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown joined city officials and members of the OCDC in celebrating the revitalization of June Regan’s 1930s home, which has a new roof, Energy Starrated side shingles and windows thanks in part to a grant from the Maryland Department of Housing

and Community Development’s Community Legacy Program. “It’s a wonderful building,” Brown said. “This is a great project and this is a great day for Ocean City.” The OCDC’s Façade Improvement Project started in 2002, Executive Director Glenn Irwin said. Since then, it has given more than $700,000 in grants to help improve buildings in Ocean City’s downtown district. But the grants have generated far more than $700,000 in economic impact, he said. To get a grant, building owners must match each dollar provided by the state with $2 of their own. “So if someone wants to get $5,000 of assistance, they have to complete a project of $15,000 or more,” Irwin said, although the projects average a much higher privateto-public dollars ratio. President of the OCDC Bob Givarz said every state dollar is matched five-, six- or seven-fold in the Façade Improvement Project, calling it a “win-win” for private business- and homeowners and the state. Since it’s inception, the program has generated more than $5 million in investment in revitalizing the downtown district, Irwin said. Statewide since 2007, the Community Legacy Program has given more than $41 million in similar grants to 440 projects, according to Brown. That’s created 3,000 temporary jobs and 1,300 permanent positions, he said. With more than 130,000 Marylanders employed in Ocean City and tourism on the rise, he called this town “one of Maryland’s most important and historic communities.” Regan, who’s owned the house on 11th Street since 1979, said the grant gave her the “push” she needed to fixed up the exterior of the home she’s shared with her five children and 16 grandchildren. “It’s a wonderful program. It gives homeowners the incentive to do something,” she said. “I wanted to make it as it was in its day… It’s absolutely wonderful to bring back the charm of these older buildings.” Regan replaced a leaking roof as well as the siding shingles to resemble the original, historic home. “This is a legacy that I could leave my children,” she said. Buildings in Ocean City’s historic downtown — the area between the inlet and 17th Street — are eligible for Façade Improvement Project grants. Applications come in on a rolling basis, Irwin said. The program has helped revitalize such buildings as the Buckingham Hotel in the past. The OCDC organizes other revitalization projects, including public art and the new street lights along St. Louis Avenue. Learn more about the OCDC and its projects at www.ocdc.org.

By Nancy Powell Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) Hundreds of people turned out Sunday afternoon for the ribbon cutting held on the second floor of the new Ocean Pines Yacht Club. People toured the facility, sampled free food upstairs, ordered dinners downstairs, listened to live music and packed the bars of both floors. General Manager Bob Thompson told those gathered on the second floor that the facility had been “nine months in the making� and the outdoor Tiki Bar was still a work in progress. Although some small items remain to be done, the first wedding was held May 17 as he had said it would and the Yacht Club had opened Memorial Day weekend, as he had said he would. He thanked the project team of Carol Terry, Carol Ludwig, Bill Rakow and Ted Moroney, who contributed countless hours to make the new Yacht Club a reality. “What a change from the old Yacht Club, isn’t it,� OPA Vice President Sharyn O’Hare said before the ribbon cutting as she recounted the opening of the first Yacht Club 39 years ago. That opening featured a play by the Ocean Pines Players and a dinner. Sunday’s events included an open house at the Yacht Club Marina, a jazz brunch with a Bloody Mary bar and live jazz and lunch on the deck with more

live music. The ribbon cutting and dedication featured hors d’oeuvres, live Reggae music, a few speeches and congratulations all around for a job well done. OPA President Tom Terry told guests how the new facility came to be. Various groups of people had wanted their favorite facility fixed first and various studies were done. Because of the need to “get out of the continuous loop of reports and studies, Bob [Thompson] created the Facilities Planning Group,� Terry said. That group ranked the community’s facilities, created a campus management plan and “did a final review to determine once and for all what we were going to do,� Terry said. In what Terry called “an absolute miracle� in 2012, the OPA “absolutely did what we planned to do.� It got recommendations about building a new Yacht Club or rehabilitating the existing Yacht Club. Ideas were gathered during town hall-type meeting and tours were given at the facility so people could see how deteriorated it was. In Jun e 2012, the board of directors voted in an unusual unanimous vote to have a referendum to ask property owners if they thought constructing a new building was a good idea. See AFTER Page 29


JUNE 13, 2014

After nine months ‘in the making’ Yacht Club opens Continued from Page 28 “Many just knew it would not be approved,� Terry said, but more than 60 percent of the property owners voted and their votes were overwhelmingly in favor of a new Yacht Club. Then, he said, it fell to the general manager, the OPA team and the board of directors to move it forward. Last fall, ground was broken for the new facility and Thompson said it would be open for Memorial Day weekend. “The Yacht Club team was poised downstairs “ ready to start work in the kitchen on Friday, May 23. It had been announced that the new Yacht Club would be open for business at 4 p.m. that day. “Three hours before we were to open, we finally got the go-ahead [from the county],� Terry said. When Terry asked the crowd if they had tasted the food in the new Yacht Club, he was met with applause. He then thanked two men “who have the highest level of commitment� to Ocean Pines. Ted Moroney was active in the planning group and continued to provide his knowledge of construction throughout the work to build the new facility. “He tracked every single dollar spent on this project,� Terry said. Terry then thanked Thompson, who, he said, was driven and dedicated in his commitment. He oversaw the entire project and showed “excellent leadership and top level guidance,� Terry said. When he thanked Thompson for his effort “on behalf of all of us,� he was met with thunderous applause from the appreciative crowd.

P.G. County man dies in collision on Route 50 west

(June 13, 2014) A 22-year-old Prince George’s County man died early Sunday morning from injuries suffered in a single-vehicle collision on Route 50 west of Riddle Lane, which leads to GlenRiddle. Maryland State Police said Ryan Young Hatton of Glen Dale was driving west when he lost control of the 2000 Toyota he was driving. The vehicle went through the median, crossed the eastbound lanes of Route 50 and struck a traffic signal support pole at the intersection for one of the entrances into Walmart and Home Depot. The vehicle overturned and Hatton was ejected. He was taken by ambulance to Atlantic General Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries. The eastbound lanes of Route 50 were closed to traffic for several hours during the investigation and debris cleanup. Assisting Maryland State Police at the scene were Worcester County Sheriff’s Office deputies, Berlin Fire Company and the State Highway Administration.

130TH ST. IN THE MONTEGO BAY SHOPPING CENTER

(June 13, 2014) The Maryland Fire Chiefs Association recently appointed Michael W. Farlow as its attorney. The Maryland Fire Chiefs Association is composed of members from both volunteer and career fire departments. The organization works to develop proMike Farlow grams to support their active officer corps so that they may best serve the citizens of Maryland. At present, there are more than 300 fire departments in Maryland.

Farlow, whose office is in Ocean Pines, is also the attorney for the Maryland State Firemen’s Association which advocates for Maryland’s 60,000 volunteer firefighters. “Being able to represent both of these fine organizations is a tremendous honor,” Farlow said. “While they share many of the same goals, each group is able to do so in a different way. The end result means a stronger volunteer fire service and increased fire fighter safety.” Farlow is no stranger to fire departments. He and his brother are the fourth generation of volunteers from his family, and his father has been a volunteer firefighter for more than 50 years. Farlow was honored with lifetime membership in the Pittsville Volunteer Fire Department when he moved

to Snow Hill and joined the Snow Hill Volunteer Fire Department where he has been a member for the past five years. Terry Thompson, the current president of the MFCA and a past president of the Maryland State Firemen’s Association, appointed Farlow at the beginning of his term. “I have known Mike for nearly 20 years and have always found him to be a dedicated public servant with exemplary leadership skills,” Thompson said. “His selfless acts of time and dedication along with his attention to detail and outstanding work ethics have made him an asset to the fire service, his community, and the state of Maryland,” he said. Farlow is currently a candidate for Worcester County State’s Attorney.

Twisters owner asks town council for tax deferment

By Josh Davis Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) A potential expansion by Twisters Gymnastics hit a snag when the Mayor and Town Council were divided on how to help the developing business. Owner Carmella Solito asked the council to defer or suspend required impact fees as well as property taxes. It was determined that altering impact fees would violate town code, and officials were split over the kind of message suspending property taxes would send to other area businesses. Solito has been attempting to move Twisters, located on 9026 Worcester Highway, for five years. “It would be by Burley Oak on the property that’s across the street from the old Tyson plant,” she said. “I think (the council) wants to help me. I know they’ve done similar things for others in the past – I’m just trying to get there and build a bigger place. We’re at a level where we have kids that need a bigger training facility. I’ve been trying to make it work any which way.” Several gymnasts who train at Twisters are currently training on the Junior Olympic-level. “We just recently got back from California at the Junior Olympics and our gymnasts qualified in the Junior Elite division,” Solito said. “In the whole nation only 35 kids qualified – one in Maryland; two in our region – and that’s the division that they pick their Olympians from.” The gym’s Future Stars program currently has six children enrolled; two were invited to train in the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo. in November. One student finished sixth on the floor, meaning if he had been of age he would have been chosen for the Olympic team. “We’re training kids at a national level,” Solito said. “We’re the only facility within a few hundred miles of here – outside of Gaithersburg – that have kids at this level. “We’re going to bring a lot to the town and hopefully at some point we’ll be financially stable enough to give back to the town,” she continued. “We have people looking at us and looking for us to bring an Olympian in the next eight years. We have everything except the facility to do it in and the place to put it.” Funding is close, Solito said, but she could use another small push from the town. Several months ago the council agreed to help finance the required EDU fees. “I was hoping to have an answer so we could get moving,” she said. “I’m sure they’ll figure out a way to help us get there and make the right decisions.” Solito estimated between 20-30 new jobs could be included in a possible expansion, which would include programs for beginner and amateur child athletes as well as Olympic hopefuls. Berlin Mayor Gee Williams asked town officials to look into ways to help Solito secure the additional funding she needs to move and expand the business.

St. Paul’s rectory demolition nearly done Church marks another sad chapter in aftermath of last November’s fatal fire By Zack Hoopes Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) Demolition of the fire-damaged rectory at St. Paul’s bythe-Sea church is nearly complete as of this week, marking another chapter – but not the final one – in the remaking of Baltimore Avenue’s streetscape under tragic circumstances. “The town has been very gracious, along with the state, in allowing us to have the lane closings and such that we needed to get it down,” said Bob Rothermel, a local businessman and member of the church’s vestry. “This is going to be a long process,”

Rothermel said. “As you can imagine, there are a lot of different thoughts, ideas, and emotions that come into play. The vestry has established a task force to try to expedite the process.” What the ultimate use for the site will be, if anything at all, is still up in the air. But the burnt-out remains of the rectory building have to be removed regardless, Rothermel said. The rectory formerly housed the church’s administrative offices on its upper floors, as well as the Shepherd’s Crook food and clothing pantry on the ground level. It was attached to the church’s main hall by a single passageway. On the morning of Tuesday, Nov. 26, 2013, John Sterner, a troubled homeless patron of the pantry, committed suicide by self-immolation. Sterner entered the Shepherd’s Crook

to try to return to some state of normalcy, “whatever that may be,” Rothermel said. “Our hope is to reseal the area where the rectory was attached, and build a handicap bathroom in that area,” Rothermel said. “We’re using the same kind of stone and siding as the main hall, so that it doesn’t look like anything ever happened there. That’s going to be our stop-gap until we figure out what we really want to do on the north side of the property.” The rectory building dated from the 1920s or 30s, Rothermel estimated. “We did find some old rosaries in the walls while they were tearing it down,” Rothermel said. “We’ve chatted about saving some of the floor joists and making a cross out of them.”

after having doused himself in gasoline and lit himself ablaze, causing fire to spread rapidly throughout the rectory. Sterner was found dead by firefighters at the scene. Several other employees and patrons were able to escape, including one who suffered severe burns, but the church’s pastor, Rev. David Dingwall, was trapped in his upper-story office. Dingwall was hospitalized, but died of smoke inhalation later that day. Given the circumstances, there is considerable debate within the congregation on what should be done with the property, Rothermel said, and if the church should attempt to rebuild its homeless ministry in light of the tragedy.

Case claims cats being captured, drowned By Zack Hoopes Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) Disturbing accusations about the recent disappearance of cats in North Ocean City have again highlighted the difficulties of the resort’s feral cat population, and the often strained relationship between neighbors regarding the animals. One resident of a cul-de-sac neighborhood off 94th Street has been charged with two counts of animal cruelty, and one count of aggravated animal cruelty, after his neighbor filed a complaint claiming he had trapped area pets and then drowned them. Although the accusations were found by a district court commissioner to not be without probable cause, according to charging docu-

ments, the names of the parties involved will be kept anonymous. No formal police investigation to verify the claims has yet been done, according to the Ocean City Police Department. In the filing, the complainant alleges the defendant “set a trap on his property and baited neighbors’ pet cats with tuna” and then “disposed of these cats, with one neighbor saying that, specifically, the cat owned by me was drowned in Assawoman Bay.” The street where both parties live consists of a few single-family homes and several low-rise condos and townhomes. Given the intimate setting, the complainant says the traps were plainly visible to neighbors. “I have one neighbor who has seen a cat in that trap, and another that said she’s seen [the defendant] catch

two cats,” the complainant said in a phone conversation. “There is another who says she knows for a fact that the one who is my pet was thrown in the bay.” Additionally, the complainant alleged that the defendant lied about the matter when confronted by several neighbors, as well as by a city animal control officer. However, the defendant maintains that his traps were for raccoons, and that the one cat he found in a trap was released unharmed. “I had raccoons in my house last year, and believe me, they’re no fun,” the defendant said when contacted by this newspaper. “There was a cat in one of my traps one time. Animal control came by and said call us if you catch anything, and I said I’d just let the cat loose.”

Although inconclusive, the matter highlights the ongoing issue of neighborhood cats in the resort area. Colonies of feral felines exist in many locations, both in town and in surrounding communities. In fact, this population is likely outsized given the transient nature of the human population, which often takes in animals and then abandons them when the person moves on. Several cat advocacy groups in the area have worked to defray this problem, largely by trapping feral cats, neutering and vaccinating them, and then returning them to the area where they were found. This way, the cats do not reproduce but maintain their territory and do not allow a larger population to move in. “The population on 94th Street used to be much larger, but it’s getting under control,” said Susan Coleman of Community Cats Coalition. “We fixed 15 in that area recently, and I’m working on another group of about 30 on 78th Street. It’s an ongoing effort, but we’re trying to educate people.” In many cases, local residents often take in formerly feral cats as pets, but allow them to continue to roam the neighborhood. Some residents enjoy this, but others may not. “Everyone knows that I’m the guy who feeds the cats,” the complainant said. “Some people think it’s cool, some don’t.” In fact, the cat that was allegedly trapped and drowned was co-owned by the complainant and a neighbor, and traveled between their homes. The co-owner corroborated the complainant’s story. “The cat finally started coming in at night, sleeping on [the complainant’s] bed and getting in his car with him. He was very, very tame,” the co-owner said. “When people found out he had been drowned, they were outraged. Everybody who lived here knew that was our cat.” The defendant is a summer resident of the resort, but has owned his vacation home for many years. According to him, feral cats and other animals are a “big, big problem” in the area. Many other homes, especially those that are vacant for part of the year, have traps set to prevent intrusion. “There are traps all over the neighborhood,” he said. “I understand he [the complainant] loves animals, but I never trapped those cats.” Regardless of the debate over how to control the cat population, however, the complainant said there should be no reason for anyone in the neighborhood to harm the residents’ adopted pets. “They weren’t feral and they weren’t even strays,” he said. “They were socialized and domesticated. There is a right way and a wrong way to address this, and he [the defendant] chose the wrong way.” A hearing on the case is set for June 30.

QUICK RESPONSE The Ocean City Fire Department responds to a building fire at a low-rise condominium on 141st Street Tuesday night. The fire was quickly suppressed, and no injuries were reported.

County, Hardwire partner to help enhance public safety (June 13, 2014) The Worcester County Commissioners announced their partnership with Hardwire, a technology company located in Pocomoke City, to enhance public safety in Worcester County on June 3. “Hardwire is an international leader, creating cutting edge products for military and public safety customers,” Commission President Bud Church said. “We are proud to say Hardwire’s headquarters and manufacturing operations are located in Worcester County, and we are pleased to partner with them to boost public safety.” The county purchased bulletproof whiteboard shields and clipboards from Hardwire totaling $12,000, with Hardwire stepping up and agreeing to match the purchase dollar for dollar to provide additional, much needed safety equipment. The shields and clipboards will be used by Sheriff’s deputies and school resource officers in the public schools

and courthouses. These boards will also be used in the state’s attorney office, treasurer’s office and Worcester County Developmental Center. “After the Sandy Hook event and most recently the University of California Santa Barbara shooting, it is evident that there continues to be a serious problem with active shooters that needs to be addressed,” Hardwire Chief Executive Officer George Tunis said. “At Hardwire, we want to help take proactive steps in our community to ensure that if this unfortunate situation were to present itself here we are prepared to keep as many folks safe as possible. We applaud the work of our commissioners and county leadership in purchasing Hardwire Bulletproof Whiteboards and Clipboards for the various county department workers.” For more information, call Worcester County Economic Development Director Bill Badger at 410-632-3112.

The Market opens at TownCenter Three local businesses with items from espresso to fish to smoothies at 67th St.

By Clara Vaughn Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) The 67th Street TownCenter welcomed The Market to its storefronts on Memorial Day, bringing fresh-brewed coffee, local produce and seafood straight from the docks to Ocean City’s mid-town shoppers. The Market features three local businesses —Point Break Espresso from 44th Street in Ocean City, Martin Fish Company based on the docks of West Ocean City and Berlin Organics from its farm on Route 611 — in one spot. “We sell everything that’s fresh,” said Patti Miller, who owns the midtown shopping center with her husband Peck. “Because what’s sold comes from local companies, you know what you’re getting.” The idea for The Market has been in the works since the 67th Street center launched almost a year ago with shops such as Sweet Frog Premium Frozen Yogurt, Ron Jon Surf Shop, At-

lantic Gold jewelers and the Longboard Café. A coffee shop was always part of the plan, Miller said. Then came Martin Fish Company, which opened in the spot last fall. “They were so excited that they didn’t even wait for the whole market to be built,” Miller said. “People were really, really wishing that we had a fresh fish market somewhere mid-town.” “It was a good way to get our product up to the North Ocean City residents,” agreed Ginger Martin, marketer for the seafood company. “We have a lot of residents in Fenwick and North Ocean City that drive all the way to our West Ocean City market.” Now customers can find the same fresh seafood at the mid-town location, including fresh fillets of local mahi mahi, tuna, swordfish, and mako as well as fresh scallops, clams and oysters. “It’s the same products they can get from our other store in West Ocean City,” Martin said. And as a family-run business since 1958, “we’re as local as you can get,” she said. “Our thinking was, ‘This makes the start of a great market,’” Miller said and when Berlin Organics joined the

mix this spring, The Market was complete. The local, organic farm opened its Juice Shack with a mix of healthy, fresh juices and smoothies as well as local produce, eggs and honey for sale. “It’s just so popular,” Miller said. Point Break Espresso has taken over as The Market’s coffee shop offering hot and frozen drinks alongside New York-style bagels made fresh daily. The booth plans to serve desserts in the near future, Miller said. Though The Market opened just a few weeks ago, word has been spreading, she said. “People were so excited the first weekend that they were taking photos of each counter and sending pictures to their friends,“ she said. “It’s really neat to see.” Beyond the fresh seafood, produce and cups of coffee, The Market also offers indoor and outdoor seating with views of the bayside lagoon. “It has a great atmosphere,” Miller said. “It’s very different for Ocean City and you can see the excitement in the first customers’ faces.” The Market marks the 67th Street Town Center’s 10th store, filling its See Market Page 40

By Lauren Bunting Contributing Writer (June 13, 2014) There have been significant changes to Maryland’s Lead Risk Reduction in Housing Act that were passed during the 2012 legislative session that are going to take effect soon. The registration fees have increased to $30 per unit and starting Jan. 1, 2015, all residential rental properties constructed prior to 1978 must be registered and lead inspected prior to each change in occupancy. The Maryland Department of the Environment’s (MDE) Lead Poisoning Prevention Program (Lead Program) serves as the coordinating agency of statewide efforts to eliminate childhood lead poisoning. Under the 1994 “Reduction of Lead Risk in Housing Law,” MDE assures compliance with mandatory requirements for lead risk reduction in rental units built before 1950; maintains a statewide listing of registered and inspected units; and, provides blood lead surveillance through a registry of test results of all children tested in Maryland. More information and renewal forms can be located online at www.mde.state.md.us, or call the Lead Rental Registry at 800-7762706. They also provide a list of contractors in the area that are certified to test for lead paint. Lead is one of the most significant and widespread environmental hazards for children in Maryland. Children are at greatest risk from birth to age 6 while their neurological systems are developing. Sustained exposure to lead can cause long lasting neurological damage or death. The major source of exposure for children is lead paint dust from deteriorated lead paint or from home renovation. Most childhood exposure occurs through children’s normal hand-to-mouth activity after contact with a source of leaded dust. The most effective prevention of childhood lead poisoning is to reduce or eliminate exposure. — Lauren Bunting is a licensed realtor with Bunting Realty, Inc. serving Worcester and Wicomico counties.

By Lisa Capitelli Managing Editor (June 13, 2014) The weather was ideal and the ocean calm last weekend for anglers participating in the 18th annual Mako Mania Shark Tournament. A total of 207 anglers headed offshore on 46 boats. Teams fished two of three tournament days, June 6-8. “We had a great turnout. With 46 boats, it was a perfect size shark tournament for Ocean City,” said Mako Mania co-director, Earl Conley. “The weather was perfect. A lot of sharks were boated or released. It seams like Mako Mania is always right at the peak of the bite.” Seventeen boats went out in search of mako and thresher sharks and bluefish last Friday. Thirty-seven crews fished Saturday and 38 took their final trip of the tournament on Sunday. Tim McGuire landed a 223.7pound mako Sunday aboard Nontypical, to win the division. The crew was awarded $38,030. The Top Dog finished in second place in the mako division. Matt Frank brought a 138-pound mako to the Bahia Marina scale on 22nd Street last Friday. The fish was worth $11,478. Ron Marquette’s 135-pound mako he reeled in aboard White Lightning, June 6, earned him third place and $7,652. The thresher division was winner takes all. Sixteen-year-old Dakota Bittner fought a large thresher for about an hour and 45 minutes before getting it aboard Reel Nauti last Friday. The fish weighed in at 398 pounds. The teen was presented with $4,650. Matt Keller and Brian Akehurst caught 11.4- and 10.8-pound bluefish aboard Wrecker, respectively. The larger bluefish was worth $4,659 and the smaller one brought in $1,701. The No Limits crew released six makos over two days to win the $1,000 W.W. Harman award for most sharks released. A total of $69,170 was paid out to the tournament winners. Conley said a majority of the participating anglers have competed in Mako Mania before. “They love the event. They like the simplicity and smoothness of it,” he said. “Bahia Marina is a great place to hold weigh-ins.” Mako Mania, presented by Bahia Marina Tournaments, was sponsors See CAPT. Page 42

Ocean City Surf Club’s first event draws top competitors (June 13, 2014) On Sunday, June 8, the newly formed Ocean City Surf Club presented the inaugural, Walk Da Plank Longboard Pro, in conjunction with the 14th annual OC Legends Longboard Team Challenge, held on Saturday, June 7. The Walk Da Plank LB Pro is the first professional surfing event held in Ocean City since the early 1980’s. Conceived of by local surfers and businessmen, Chris Tilghman and Brad Hoffman, the WDP Pro is an event designed to highlight Ocean City’s longstanding heritage of surfing and ocean involvement. Attending the event were 16 of the East Coast’s top longboard surfers, coming from Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina and Florida. Comprised of competitors ranging in age from 14 years old, to seasoned pros into their 30’s, the contest featured an impressive body of talent, all vying for the total cash purse of $4,700, with the winner walking away with a $1,500 first-place prize. The morning conditions featured a waist to occasionally chest high swell from the south, with a wave grooming west wind, at the presenting sponsor’s, Castle in the Sand Hotel’s, 37th Street beach. The first round, with the winners going directly into the quarterfinals and

the rest, able to surf again to gain a position into the second elimination round, saw some impressive nose riding and walking the board prowess, in the super clean conditions. It was definitely a study in state-of-the-art longboard riding, with most surfers choosing to ride traditional, single fin, 50/50 railed boards. As the day progressed, a south wind began to deteriorate the morning’s beautiful conditions, but the small ground swell held in there, offering many opportunities for long nose rides, combining both hanging five toes over the nose, 10 toes over the nose and a few, extremely difficult, hanging both heels over the nose. Usually, the guys hanging heels would run the opposite direction toward the tail of their boards, before spinning around back to their normal stance, and continuing on to their next set of maneuvers. Many heats were extremely close. As many highly skilled surfers dropped from the competition, those still left in the contest stepped up their game and put on a fantastic show for the crowd on the beach. When the final horn sounded, it was well known pro longboarder, Tony Silvagni from Carolina Beach, N.C., taking the jumbo check, presented by the Bank of Ocean City, for $1,500, and an impressive wooden trophy from Plak That,

Henry lands first white marlin of ‘14 off OC coast

By Liz Lane Intern (June 13, 2014) The first white marlin of the season was reeled in Wednesday morning on the No Worries by mate John Henry, of Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. Henry, 22, hooked and released the estimated 80-pound billfish between the Baltimore and Poorman’s Canyons around 10:20 a.m. After a nearly 20minute fight, Henry said he’s “fired up” about the catch despite the cold fishing day and 70-degree waters. Capt. Michael Corbosiero said the team did not anticipate catching any marlin because the season is still so early. However, he said it was a nice surprise for everyone including Henry, who has been his mate for about eight years. The crew is based in Florida where Henry said they typically reel in the sailfish. Here, they participate in Ocean City’s various tournaments including the White Marlin Open and Tuna

Ocean City Air Show takes flight this wknd. Event features U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, Navy Seals Leap Frogs, AV-8B Harrier

By Clara Vaughn Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) Ocean City’s seventh annual Air Show takes flight this weekend bringing parachute teams, formations flights and other high-flying acrobatics to the resort. “People come to air shows for different reasons. Some people love the civilian, smaller stunt-type of aircrafts. There are others who really get inspired by the military jets,” said Cathy Bassett, press officer for the show. “Any good air show has a combination of all those different features.” Visitors can catch it all in the OC Air Show, taking place Saturday and Sunday. Though the show officially begins tomorrow, events kick off today with a breakfast with the performers at 8 a.m. at Layton’s Family restaurant on 16th Street. The breakfasts take place at the same time and place every day during the show and are a great place to meet some of the performers, Bassett said. “A lot of our performers will come

to Layton’s for breakfast, so if some kids want to come by and try to get an autograph, that’s a good place to hang out,” she said. An air show preview takes place afterward at 12:30 p.m. at the show center between 15th and 16th street on the beach though, like the air show itself, the flights will be visible throughout most of Ocean City. Tonight, air aficionados will gather for the show’s Take Off Party at 7 p.m. at Cowboy Coast Country Saloon on 17th Street. On Saturday, the OC Air Show officially launches with performances by the U.S. Navy Seals Leap Frogs, U.S. Marine Corps AV-8B Harrier, U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds and more highflying acts. The display village lining the Boardwalk from 13th to 19th Street will open at 9 a.m. for guests to visit various information booths and talk to military recruiters about the Thunderbirds and other performances. “It’s worth taking a stroll down the Boardwalk to take a look at that,” Bassett said. Weather permitting, the show officially launches at 12:30 p.m. Then, at 3 p.m., the Thunderbirds take to the sky.

“Wherever you are in Ocean City, you’re going to want to stop and look up” for their 45-minute show, Bassett said. “It’s very patriotic and it’s probably one of the best air shows to witness,” said Sean Carroll, who will fly the Yak9 fighter jet in the show this year. “The Blue Angels and the Thunderbirds always inspired me to fly.” Carroll will be showing off his WWII fighter jet in a solo performance this year. He plans to put the propeller plane “through its paces,” showing its maneuverability and extreme speed. “I really enjoy taking a high-performance aircraft and doing it right in front of the crowd,” Carroll said. “It’s very, very challenging and it’s really cool because I’ve inspired a lot of young men and women to fly and go into service. That really means a lot, carrying on the tradition.” He said the entire show is shaping up to be a “great beach performance.” After Saturday’s show, the public is invited to a happy hour at Surfin’ Betty’s Pool Bar near air show headquarters on 16th Street. At 7 p.m. there will be an air show performer event at Ocean Downs casino on Racetrack Road in Berlin featuring a Navy Seals night parachute

jump. The Thunderbirds will also be at the party, Bassett said. The air show continues Sunday with more performances by the Thunderbirds, GEICO Skytypers, Red Bull Air Force and more. There will be an Afterburner Party for the public at Captain’s Table Restaurant in the Marriott Courtyard on 15th Street at 7 p.m. New this year, the public will have the chance to take rides in a WWII B25 Bomber during the air show. For a $425 donation to the Delaware Aviation Museum Foundation, visitors will get the experience of what it was like to fly onboard the B25 Mitchell Bomber “Panchito.” The flights will take off from the Ocean City Airport today through June 15. The plane can seat up to five people and children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Call 443458-8926 or e-mail panchitoB25@aol.com to save a seat on the 30-minute flights. Visit www.b25.ocairshow.com to learn more about the bomber. Other 2014 additions to the air show include two new performers, Gary Ward in the MX-2 and Greg Connell in the Pitts Model 12.

Though the Air Show’s “drop zone” is on the beach at 16th Street, where spectators can catch commentary, visitors can get great views from most spots along the Boardwalk and beach.

By Clara Vaughn Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) A father-son duo will celebrate Father’s Day flying wing-to-wing in the sky above Ocean City as part of the GEICO Skytypers performance in the OC Air Show this weekend. Bob and his son Ken Johansen are both retired Navy pilots, now flying World War II trainer planes known as North American SNJ-2s in the lowflying, precision show. “Not many dads get the chance to perform low-altitude, close-formation maneuvers right alongside their son,” Bob said.

The U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds will perform at 3 p.m. Saturday and Sunday during the OC Air Show this weekend. “It’s very patriotic and it’s probably one of the best air shows to witness,” said fellow pilot Sean Carroll, who will give a solo performance in the Yak-9 fighter jet and was inspired to fly by the Thunderbirds.

Continued from Page 49 will perform individually as well as fly head-to-head in a performance. Last year, 204,647 people were in town during the OC Air Show, according to demoflush statistics that measure the town’s population based on wastewater usage. That was down from year’s past, Bassett said, because government cuts nixed the military component for the year. Around 260,000 were in town for the 2012 show, for example, said OC Air Show President Brian Lilley. “This year, we fully expect it to be our record year of our biggest attendance ever,” he said. “There aren’t really as many military demos available as before the sequestration-era,” making Ocean City’s show one of the highest crowd-pulling events. Lilley had experience organizing air shows in Florida and decided to bring the idea for a show here in front of the city council seven years ago. “Its just a really cool event,” he said. “It’s a celebration of our military, of our freedom… An air show is a patriotic, family-oriented, fun, exciting,

Johansens fly with GEICO Skytypers Continued from Page 51 Ken made it clear: “I definitely got the bug from my father.” He took his first flight with the Skytypers at age eight over Long Island, N.Y. and “was hooked,” going on to become a Navy pilot flying P3’s before becoming a commercial airline captain. Bob flew Grumman S2 “Tracker” antisubmarine aircraft for the Navy before taking on a commercial airline career at Trans World Airlines. He is the latest recipient of the Federal Aviation Administration’s highest civilian honor, the Wright Brother’s Master Pilot award, which recognizes pilots for completing 50 years of safe flight. Now, the pair will join the other GEICO Skytyper pilots over Ocean City’s beach this weekends showcasing precision flight maneuvers with four other vintage World War II aircraft. “Most of our team earned their wings in the military and these 75year-old planes pay tribute to the brave pilots of the ‘Greatest Generation,’” said Steve Kapur, a Skytyper pilot and team marketing officer. “We consider it a privilege to inspire kids, honor veterans and fly these war birds on behalf of GEICO at air shows all across the U.S.” The GEICO Skytypers are the only flying unit that performs at air shows across the county typing messages in the sky. They will Skytype on Friday

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Don’t be surprised if you experience a sudden spurt of energy strong enough to pull you out of that recent period of indecision and put you back in charge of your own goals. LEO (July 23 to August 22) This is a good time for Leos and Leonas to set new goals regarding health, educational choices and possible career moves. The plans you make now could be a blueprint for your future. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) You might have much to offer a

potential employer, but it can all be overwhelmed by too many details. Let the facts about you speak for themselves without any embellishments.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) This is a good week to balance

your responsibilities to your work-aday world with your obligations to the people in your private life. Expect news that could lead to a change in plans.

of a once determined adversary could cause changes down the line. Be prepared to take advantage of an unexpected new opportunity.

Sagittarius to be skeptical about an offer that doesn’t answer all your questions. Even a colleague’s testimonial doesn’t replace facts that aren’t there.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) It’s a good idea to avoid

spending on unnecessary purchases this week in order to keep a money reserve against a possible upcoming (but, fortunately, temporary) shortfall.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) More information is what you

should demand regarding that workplace situation that recently came to light. Don’t be surprised at who might turn up as one of your supporters. You might still be in a “treading water” mode, but by midweek, a shift in your aspect favors taking a more active role in pushing for the changes you feel are necessary. Good luck.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20)

Art’s Alive celebrates 14th anniversary in OC Approximately 100 artists will sell their wares this weekend at 125th St. park

By Clara Vaughn Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) Art’s Alive is celebrating its 14th year in Ocean City with more than 100 artists selling their works and competing in a juried show this weekend. The fine arts event with food, music and children’s activities takes place Saturday and Sunday in Northside Park. “Art’s Alive is the art show that has something for everyone,” said Jessica Waters, communications manager for the Town of Ocean City. From jewelry and furniture to paintings, sculpture, ceramics and photography, the show brings a variety of works by artists from Maryland, Delaware, Virginia and beyond to the park each summer. The 125th Street location provides 58 acres of green space for the event and is a big draw for visitors. “Guests can enjoy expansive bay views while browsing unique artwork,” Waters said. Art’s Alive is an upscale event and that’s one reason visitors come back each year, artists agreed. “It’s a higher-end show in terms of the quality of products that are there. I was looking for that type of show,” said

Almost 100 artists will line the lagoon at Northside Park on 125th Street this Saturday and Sunday to exhibit and sell their jewelry, furniture, paintings, sculpture, photography and more.

Ray Secrist, who’s been coming to Art’s Alive for four years as Natural Wood Furnishings. The Dagsboro, Del., artist will be back again this year with woodworks from hand-held mirrors to coffee tables and blanket chests. Secrist said the crowd is one of his favorite parts of the Ocean City show. “I try to interact with people as much as possible to have them understand what I am doing and a little bit of background about the types of wood I’m using,” he said. “I have been pleased with the participation.” John Walsh, of Allenstown, Pa.,

agreed the crowd is one of the reasons he travels to Art’s Alive each summer. “My favorite part of the show is just interacting with the people,” said Walsh, who will display his black-andwhite drawings at his A Pawn to the Pencil booth this weekend. “It’s entertaining talking about my work.” Walsh has been attending Art’s Alive since 2002 and said good weather always bodes well for the show. “It’s always nice when the weather’s good,” he said. Art’s Alive was born in 2001, just a few years after the Boardwalk-based Arts Atlantica shut down in 1998. The

show has grown from just 25 artists its first year to nearly 100 exhibitors and draws about 7,000 shoppers and browsers to Northside Park each year, said Brenda Moore, special events coordinator for the Town of Ocean City. “The Art League of Ocean City and the community decided they really wanted another art show, and an uptown, upscale art show was born,” Moore said. In addition to selling their works, artists compete in more than 10 juried categories at Art’s Alive. The 2014 winners will be presented with ribbons and more than $5,000 in cash prizes at an awards reception Saturday night, Moore said. Awards include Best of Show, The Mayor’s Choice Award and six Judge’s Choice Awards. In addition to browsing artwork and meeting the artists, Art’s Alive visitors can enjoy fare from the Artists’ Café and Maui Wowi as well as live music by Silver, Wood & Ivory, a professional flute and piano duo. There will be free art activities for children. The Art’s Alive Official Event Merchandise Tent will provide guests with a piece of the event to take home, such as T-shirts, jackets, baseball caps, pins and other items. “There is something for everyone at See PAINTINGS Page 56

By Clara Vaughn Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) A local parent is raising awareness and funding for autism research and treatment this Saturday with “Music Rocks Autism,” a concert event at the Oasis Bar’N’ Grill in Whaleyville. Linda Cain’s event will run from 2 p.m. to close with bands including Absinthe, Hate The Toy, Dust N Bones, Bitches Brew, Hell Pie, Baby Jayne, Never the Sun, Ven Detta, Runin’ With Scizors and Old School OC performing. Admission is a $10 donation to benefit the Autism Speaks National Capital Area chapter. Cain’s son Jacob, who has autism, gave her inspiration to organize the event. “He has a great reaction to music. It makes him smile,” she said. Music Rocks Autism came about when Jacob wrote her a note asking if he

was invisible after a bus ride home from Baltimore’s Kennedy Krieger Institute, which houses the Center for Autism and Related Disorders. People on the bus were looking away from him, the note said. “I wanted to change that, so I started doing Music Rocks Autism to include autistic musicians and autistic families,” she said. “Now, many families come to the events regularly. They dance and they are among everyone. “Instead of looking away, we look toward them,” Cain said.Cain’s goal is to travel the country raising awareness about autism and that those affected by it shouldn’t be shunned. She already has concerts booked in seven states. Donations from each show benefit a different autism organization or family affected by the disorder. See MUSIC Page 57

OC Beach Patrol urges teens to be smart when in resort

By Kristin Joson Contributing Writer (June 13, 2014) While the lifeguards are alertly scanning their area and the water in front of them for signs of danger, trouble is sometimes festering behind their stands this time of year. It’s what some refer to as the “Class of 2014.” It’s a tradition thousands of graduates participate in each year; the trek to Ocean City to enjoy their freedom. Full of confidence, and feeling immune to any dangers, they sometimes allow the excitement of the atmosphere to impede their judgment enough to get them into trouble. When we get a warm sunny day, the water temperatures are inviting. If you add a town full of celebrating graduates to the mix, the lifeguards have their work cut out for them. Unfortunately, we also see a sharp rise in vandalism to our lifeguard stands each night during this time of the season (the stand is an important piece of safety equipment). If

you see any suspicious activity on the beach or someone tampering with a stand, please call the Police and help us be prepared for guarding your beach the next day. At no other time of year do we see more teenagers chase each other down the beach and into the ocean only to end up diving into shallow water. The more experienced among them dive shallow and usually do not suffer any consequences of this risky behavior. The less fortunate will spend the rest of their vacation trying to explain the scabs on their forehead and nose. The really unfortunate will not be able to run or dive, ever again. While beach patrol members respond to spinal injuries every year, none are more tragic than those that occur when young people are injured from diving into shallow water. It is not their age so much, but the

head.” Our ocean water is not as clear as pool water, and we don’t have the depth printed along the edge in big black numbers like it is at the local swim club. An additional practice that we encourage for everyone who visits our beaches is to check in with the nearest Surf Rescue Technician (lifeguard) and ask about the water conditions for that beach on that day. The SRT will inform you of current conditions in your area of the beach, including signs of inclement weather, rip currents and dangerous shore break. While lifeguards try to stop accidents before they happen, even whistle blasts sometimes don’t catch the attention of those who are horsing around and chasing each other. Surf rescue technicians are often left cringing in their stands, hoping that those who just dove into the foot-deep water will pop up unscathed. This is usually followed by what we call an impromptu beach safety presentation as the closest lifeguard explains the dangers of their actions. While 40 percent of spinal injuries occurring in the surf are caused by people diving into shallow water, the majority result from body surfers and body boarders riding waves that are breaking too close to shore. We encourage people to keep their arms stretched out in front of them when body surfing, and to avoid riding waves that are breaking close to See THINK Page 65

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Embellish ‘classic’ dishes with modern twist By Deborah Lee Walker Contributing Writer (June 13, 2014) The art of preserving the past stands a greater chance of endearment if one embellishes the “classics” with a modern twist. The power of permanence is based on meticulous calculations that must sooth the demands of culinary enthusiasts. Adaptability and perception are the ingredients for mastering how America eats. As I open the book of memory lane, Sunday particularly stands out. My family put on our Sunday best and headed

ON GUARD

Think before diving or riding breaking waves into beach Continued from Page 64 the sandbar or beach. We hope that everyone who visits our beach will enjoy many happy, healthy returns. The Ocean City Beach Patrol has worked with trauma doctors to develop a specialized technique to manage suspected head, neck and back injuries. Although every surf rescue technician is trained and skilled in the use of these techniques, it is far better for our beach patrons to have injuries prevented rather than treated. Taking responsibility for your own actions and spreading the caution about spinal cord injuries is the greatest form of prevention we have. Many people just do not realize that wet sand is just as un-yielding as concrete. Most people would never think of attempting a flip in the middle of a parking lot for fear of striking the ground. However, many of these same individuals will attempt these aerial maneuvers on the beach or into a few inches of ocean water, with the all to often result, of witnessing our spinal injury management technique first hand. Please, use your head to protect your spine and think before diving or riding breaking waves into the beach. Have fun, but remain safe.

for church. “Hospitality” followed the service but could not compare to the weekly feast that graced our table. Roasting or broiling were the preferred methods of cooking and the menu was always heightened on the seventh day of the week. Crispy lamb chops, stuffed pork chops and mouth watering Shake N Bake chicken were among my favorites. Sunday was dad’s day in the kitchen; I was mesmerized by his confidence and attention to detail. Much has changed since the era of simplicity. The clock of time has fast forwarded to present day and I feel society has resigned itself to “fast or frozen food.” Whatever happened to the glorious Sunday roasts with all the trimmings? Why do our ovens echo with emptiness? Maybe as the generations make their mark in the tree of ancestry, the art of roasting has been put on the back burner through the hustle and bustle of continuation.

Despite the advent of the modern oven, roasting remains a mystery to most. Understanding is based on knowledge; recipes answer the question of “what” but do not explain “why.” Fortitude of comprehension is a collective adventure and basics emulsify insight. The most important thing to understand is that when you put food into an enclosed vessel such as a grill, smoker, or an oven, the hot air, which has lots of vibrating molecules, transfers some of the energy to the exterior of the meat. The heated air or surface transfers heat to the molecules inside of the meat. This process takes time because meat is about 75 percent water. The heat moves inward because physics dictates the meat seeks equilibrium in an effort to make the temperature the same from edge to edge. Therefore, most of the meat is cooked by the meat itself, not by the air or hot surface. It is essential that one remembers a very important physical phenomenon that takes place in meats that have been just cooked. The term “carryover heat”

is given to the increase in temperature that occurs in any meat that has just been removed from the source of heat. Since the internal temperature of a piece of meat keeps increasing for several minutes; adjustments must be made to avoid over cooking the meat. Meat can rise 10 to 15 degrees while resting. Remember, the larger the piece of meat, the greater the internal temperature will increase. Father’s Day is upon us and gratitude fills the air. Instantly, a gorgeous steak and delectable sauce seems very fitting for the special day. Chateaubriand peaks my fancy and becomes the object of my heart’s desire. Chateaubriand, a classic steak for two made from the center-cut filet was created by personal chef Montmireil for author and statesman, Francois-Rene de Chateaubriand. He took a large cut of beef from the tenderloin, coated it in butter, seasoned it with black pepper and grilled it. The tenderloin was served with a reduced sauce made from white See STEAK Page 67

Fish Tales looking for ‘top dogs’ to compete Still time to qualify for July 4 hot dog-eating contest at 22nd Street establishment

By Lisa Capitelli Managing Editor (June 13, 2014) Are you competitive? Think you can eat more hot dogs than anyone else in 10 minutes? Well, there’s just a few weeks left to qualify for Fish Tales Bar & Grill’s seventh annual Independence Day “Top Dog” hot dog-eating contest. Anyone 18 and older who is interested in competing in the July 4 event may stop by the 22nd Street bayside bar and restaurant at anytime during the day to speedily consume five deli-style hot dogs and buns. A Fish Tales representative will time each participant, and the 20 people with the fastest times will move on to the finals, scheduled to take place Friday, July 4, at 2 p.m. The cost to take part in the qualifier is $5, which will go toward the prize money pot. “I would love to see a local [dethrone] the previous ‘top dogs,’” said Brandon Hemp, Fish Tales manager and contest coordinator. A stage will be assembled in the parking lot of Fish Tales for the competitive eaters who advance to the July 4 main event, which is modeled after Nathan’s famous Fourth of July international contest. Fish Tales and Coors Light are

again this year. The “Top Dog” will win $1,000 and a trophy. Cash prizes will also be awarded to the second- and third-place finishers. The 2012 winner, Jamie McDonald of Connecticut, was crowned the champion again in 2013, devouring 36 hot dogs. He won a trophy and $1,000. Connecticut

resident Joe Menchetti ate 22.5 hot dogs and finished in second place. He was awarded $500. Nick Rivers of Laurel, Md., downed 19.5 hot dogs and buns, good for third place and $250. For more information about the contest, call Fish Tales at 410-289-0990 or visit www.ocfishtales.com.

Seven graduates receive awards

(June 13, 2014) Seven graduates for the 2013-2014 academic year are recipients of the 30th annual Dennis Carroll Scholarship Awards. These students were selected from their participation in the Most Valuable Student Scholarship competition which is conducted by the Elks National Foundation each year. Ocean City Elks Lodge #2645 is proud to have these students represent our lodge. Stephen Decatur High School recipients were Bradley C. Miller ($6,000), Gabrielle Ortega ($6,000) and Kevin O’Connor ($1,000). Taking home awards from Worcester Prep were Robert Rogers IV ($3,000), Alissa Talbert ($2,000), Claire Dorey ($1000) and John Brittingham III ($1,000). Miller was awarded $1,500 from the state Elk’s Association and $4,000 from the Elks National Foundation. He was one of 500 seniors out of 20,000 participants nationwide who advanced to national level in the MVSS competition. O’Connor also received a $4,000 Legacy Award grant from the Elks National Foundation. Funding for the OC Elks Scholarship Fund comes from money raised from the annual golf tournament and donations from the ladies auxiliary, the Elks golf associates, the Charity Committee and tax deductible donations from members, business establishments and citizens in the community.

Steak with Chateaubriand sauce Continued from Page 65 wine, shallots, tarragon, and demiglace. It is traditionally served with sautĂŠed vegetables and herb roasted small “new potatoes.â€? Different times equate diverse changes; an updated version of chateaubriand is perfect for the man of the day. An impressive filet mignon smothered in an herb-mushroom sauce is just a small token of appreciation for dads on Father’s day. Fluffy mashed potatoes are a given and his favorite vegetable is the finale of a special meal. Maybe I am old fashioned, perhaps I am showing my age, but the exchange of cards seems to becoming a distant formality. Take that extra step to show your dad how much he is loved; a simple card speaks volumes. Chateaubriand accompanied with a card is a special way to say, “Happy Father’s Day.â€? Steak 4 (12 oz. filet mignon) 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil kosher salt and fresh ground pepper to taste Chateaubriand sauce 3 tablespoons unsalted butter 2 cloves garlic, minced 3 shallots, minced 10 ounces baby portabella mushrooms (washed and stems removed) 2 bay leaves

1 teaspoon dried thyme 1 teaspoon dried, crushed rosemary 2 teaspoons dried tarragon 1 tablespoon flat fresh parsley, finely chopped 1 teaspoon demi-glaze (optional) 1 Ÿ cups dry white wine 1 cup veal stock (beef stock can be used in its place) 1 cube of Knorr chicken bouillon Wondra Quick-Mixing Flour kosher salt and fresh round pepper to taste fresh thyme as a garnish 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. 2. While the oven is preheating, prep all the ingredients for the chateaubriand sauce. 3. In a large ovenproof, heavy-bottomed frying pan, heat the olive oil over high heat but not smoking. 4 Season the filets with kosher salt and fresh ground pepper, then brown it on both sides. 5. Transfer the pan to the oven and roast until the meat’s internal temperature reaches 130 degrees, (10 to 15 minutes). Remove from the oven. 6. Transfer the meat to a cutting board and tent it with aluminum foil. The carryover heat will bring the meat temperature to medium-rare. 7. Place the pan that the filets were cooked in on the stove, do not wash the pan.

Kerrigan LLS Man of the Year

By Josh Davis Staff Writer (June 13, 2014) Local police officer Ricky Kerrigan was selected as the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society 2014 Man of the Year on June 6. LLS revealed Kerrigan as the Maryland-Eastern Shore chapter’s winner during a Grand Finale Gala at the Tidewater Inn in Easton. Grasonville resident Kris Shanahan was named the 2014 Woman of the Year. In total, the campaign raised more than $248,000. The annual campaign nominated 10 individuals to raise money in honor of the LLS Boy and Girl of the Year. Cancer survivors Joshua Czorapinski, 8, and Colby Fowle, 4, were selected this year. Kerrigan was nominated by Colby’s parents. “It was a big relief,” he said of the honor. “I was surprised and happy and excited.

“The atmosphere was one of enjoyment,” Kerrigan continued. “Everyone put in so much work and effort in the last ten weeks, so it was kind of relaxed and everyone was laid back.” Colby and her parents were in attendance at the gala. “There was an auction going on at the same time, and they actually bid on a chocolate lab puppy and won that,” Kerrigan said. “So they’re taking home a puppy from the gala. That was pretty great.” Kerrigan said Colby, who was diagnosed with Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) in January 2013, is doing well. “They brought her up on stage and gave her a little stash,” he said. “She was in good spirits and having fun. It was a good time.” The West Ocean City resident set a See KERRIGAN Page 72

Continued from Page 71 goal of raising $50,000 for LLS; he ended up raising more than $52,000 during the 10-week campaign. “Being that we raised over $50,000 LLS will send us a list of doctors that they approve of doing research for cancer, and I’ll get to pick which doctor the money goes to,” he said. Kerrigan plans on allocating the money for ALL. “That’s what Colby had and she was our inspiration,” he said. “I’ll have to take it up with Colby’s parents, because they know more than I do, and see what they recommend. We also get to name the funding, so we’ll probably name the funding ‘Kisses for Colby’ or something.” A member of the Ocean Pines Police Department, Kerrigan hosted fundraising events at Hooper’s Crab House and Pickles Pub, as well as in Ocean Pines and through a partnership with the Judith M. Sunset Booze Cruise. As the 2014 winner, Kerrigan will also have the chance to nominate candidates for next year’s Man and Woman of the Year. “We plan on nominating someone that was on our campaign team or someone that worked close to our campaign,” he said. “I’m not sure if it will be a guy or a girl yet, but I’m going to call one of them out and

Commentary Police take angst out of weekend OUR OPINION

There were just so many unknowns about last weekend. Some people were nervous, because they thought an onslaught of “senior week” combined with a beach “takeover” by college students, would result in a rather tension-filled couple of days. But that’s not what happened at all. OCPD showed a great deal of strength in presence at the inlet, the Boardwalk and points north to turn the weekend into one that statistically fell in line for an average June weekend, with an 8 percent rise in calls for service. What might be notable is that calls were above average on Friday night indicating a strong show of strength by Police. Perhaps Chief Ross Buzzuro, who patrolled the Boardwalk himself several times over the weekend, said it best. “The word ‘takeover’ obviously scared some people,” he said. The chief went on to say that there was no there…there. It was an unsanctioned event, so there was no itinerary, no permits, no headcount. “So we’re left asking what we can really attach to this when it’s just folks showing up?” According to our front-page story reported by Zack Hoopes, OCPD has received praise for the demeanor of its officers, who were present but not overbearing. Several businesses, he reported, have asked that the city continue the heightened presence for the entire month of June. That is something for the city to determine. But we’d like to add that the Chief, who has had experience in the Baltimore City Police command with high value tourist destinations such as Harbor Place knows all to well that sometimes more of a heightened police presence is needed. We think that under Chief Buzzuro’s leadership, the OCPD comported itself professionally. The weekend went by with no harm, no foul. We can all take a deep cleansing breath now.

Mann team victorious in tourney* THE PUBLIC EYE

Theobald’s loving role as dad EDITOR’S NOTEBOOK

Joe Theobald and his daughter Diana were in his vehicle when the call came across the radio. First responders were at the beach and 128th Street, June 3, desperately searching the ocean for a missing young man. As we learned that same day, the news was tragic as the 18-year-old Montgomery County resident had died. Theobald, Ocean City’s Emergency Services Director, and Diana, an Ocean City Beach Patrol member, quickly got to the scene and started to help where they could. Diana stayed with the young man’s two friends, who were both rescued by OCBP. It was a less hectic Tuesday morning, and in his office Theobald was asked a question that had nothing to do with emergency response and safety. He is the father of three daughters, and with Father’s Day on Sunday, the topic was on being a good dad. Diana, 20, has been an OCBP member for five summers. Her dad is technically her boss, since the department falls under the Department of Emergency Services. That she was with her dad on an emergency response is a beautiful continuation of their lives. Goodness knows how many times she sat in the back seat of his car on the way to school or a birthday party. Perhaps when she was a bit older, she and her dad were driving to a game she was playing in. He would even teach her drive, and now the two were headed to an emergency they would be working on not as dad and daughter, but as first responders. “My dad is willing to do absolutely anything for us,” said Diana, who is going to begin the University of Maryland School of

By Phil Jacobs

Nursing in late summer. She wants to work in trauma, emergency medicine or pediatric oncology. Diana said her dad is still lovingly fulfilling the role. “He’s willing to drive me to work sometimes because the parking stinks,” she said. It was after she finished a day on Beach Patrol that her dad picked her up, and the two heard the 911 dispatches about the drowning. “He insists on making me lunches and giving me snacks. Sometimes he gives me 10 different snacks. Everyone at working is always joking with me about it.” Diana has two older sisters: Kimberly, 28, who is the mother of a two-year-old, with one on the way, making her dad a grandfather; and Alyson, 26, who works for Goldman Sachs in Washington D.C. He and his wife Carol have been married for 32 years. “Raising children is an unknown you have to be prepared for,” he said. “It’s a journey, and I think being a parent is the most important job a person can have, “My wife and I are blessed to have three good, loving children. I think that if you raised your children to good adults, then you’ve done your job as a parent right.” Theobald had a good idea of what it would be like as the oldest of six siblings, including two sisters. “I learned how to take care of girls,” he said. “I had the choice to work afternoons and evenings so that at times I could stay home with the kids. My wife and I always thought it was most important to be there for them. For us, the kids are everything.” Now, include Keira, 2, who calls her grandfather, “Pop.” See THEOBALD’S Page 93

* I’m lying. We didn’t come close because our foursome (names withheld upon request) consisted of one By good player, one brave but Stewart bad player, Dobson one terrible who, on the golf stinkability scale, ranks somewhere below a pulpwood mill. I am the sulfur dioxide of golfers. Lying, however, is the essence of this game. I say this because golfers who play regularly will tell people like me that it doesn’t matter whether you have a good or bad game, but that you just have fun. This simply isn’t true, because if it was and “fun” consisted of complaining, whining, cursing and muttering frequently for hours on end without accomplishing much of anything, then I’ve been having more fun at work than I realized. I am happy to report, however, that my once-a-year outing in the Children’s House by the Sea Tournament went smoothly. No one required medical attention during or after the contest and nothing in particular happened that could not be remedied with a few sessions of counseling. And I did hit the ball well … not once, but twice. Some would say this is pitiful and that I should confine my complaining, whining, muttering and cursing to my office (which, unfortunately, does not have a beer cart … yet), but they would be missing the point. Out of the 200 or so players in this tournament, I would bet big money that I am the only one who can say that my game has improved tremendously since my last foray onto the links. In fact, I am now twice as good as I once was. And that’s the truth.

Theobald’s fatherhood formula Continued from Page 92 He added that he loves the “ethic he sees with his daughters. “They all have the values needed to succeed as good adults,� he said. “I’m not concerned that they won’t make the right decisions, because they always do. Yet they also know that life is full of hard knocks, and isn’t always perfect. “There is no script to follow to raise children,� he added. “Teach them to be kind and to be considerate to others. There’s no magic to that.� He said that those days when his

girls were little and became women all happened in a “blink of an eye.� “I can still see them as toddlers,� he said. “But I keep saying that my wife and I did the right thing, because we have such wonderful, caring daughters. And that’s the way life is supposed to be.� The best part perhaps now. He talks to his daughters at least twice a day. They call him. “He’s a very generous guy, and he’ll anything for everyone,� said Diana. Because he loves his girls.
