More than 2,300 hot rods, classics, muscle cars, trick trucks and customs were on display last weekend during Ocean City’s 18th annual Endless Summer Cruisin'. Activities began last Thursday and continued through Sunday at the Roland E. Powell Convention Center on 40th Street and downtown at the inlet parking lot.

Cruisin’ calm, others less so Measuring loss

Smaller event helps, but citations up for run-with-pack types

By Zack Hoopes Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) Although considerably toned down from the issues encountered during the spring event, last week’s Endless Summer Cruisin’ still saw an uptick in police activity compared to previous years, as the city continues to struggle with how to best control the growth of automotive events.

REDUCED $10,000!

The Ocean City Police Department reported making a total of 528 traffic stops from Thursday, Oct. 8 to Sunday, Oct. 11, 2015, handing out 997 total violations. This is significantly up from the 389 stops and 457 violations recorded over the same Thursday-Sunday span of the fall Cruisin’ event in 2014. It is also significantly down, however, from the 924 traffic stops made over four days during the spring Cruisin’ event this past May, which generated a great amount of concern from res-

idents about the ill-behavior of the crowd the show was attracting. “As we’ve said before, later in the season, a lot of people are putting their cars up for the winter, and it makes it a more selective crowd,” said Bob Rothermel, one of the promoters who organizes both the Cruisin’ OC show, typically held in mid-May, and the Endless Summer Cruisin’ show, typically held in mid-October. “The late season shows never draw as much as the See CRUISERS Page 3

Cruisers outdo themselves, still calmer than H2Oi Continued from Page 1 spring shows,” Rothermel said. “And I think the impact feels reduced because people are more used to the level of noise and traffic after the summer than they are at the beginning of the season.” For the four days this past May, the OCPD logged 509 total citizen calls for service, compared to 243 last weekend, suggesting that the level of disturbance to residents during the fall Cruisin’ event is roughly half of that seen during the spring. “There were a few problem groups here and there, but nothing like we saw in the spring,” said Brandon Hemp, General Manager of Fish Tales, one of several restaurants that had issues with vandalism and aggressive behavior during the spring Cruisin’ event. Last weekend’s Cruisin’ also saw less law enforcement demand than the previous weekend’s H2O International VW/Audi show. Despite the effects of a massive nor’easter dampening the Volkswagen event, the OCPD logged 348 citizen complaints and 680 traffic stops from Oct. 1-4, 2015. In the case of both the fall and spring Cruisin’ events, as well as H2Oi, a significant number of disturbances and rowdy behavior come not from the event’ actual participants, but from roadside spectators and those who bring other types of cars to “run with the pack.” “We saw a lot more people in the restaurant last weekend with the lanyards that indicated they were at the show,” Hemp noted. “The folks we had in the fall were the ones who actually participate in the event, as opposed to the hangers-on which were who we had issues with in the spring.” Rothermel noted that he intentionally reduced the number of cars in last weekend’s show to better control crowds — but behavior outside of the show grounds at the inlet and convention center parking lots, which are rented from the city, is outside of his company’s control.

Sea level rise forcing park changes Continued from Page 1 that increasing volumes of water in the ocean, coupled with the natural migration of the island westward, will soon become untenable and may end up causing more harm than good. For example, during Superstorm Sandy in 2012, one of the asphalt bayside parking lots collapsed and washed into the water. Park Superintendent Debbie Darden said staff was still in the process of removing asphalt from the water. Taking that example and applying it to the oceanside parking lots, solar arrays, rest room facilities and other permanent structures along with natural and storm surge erosion and land migration, and the timeline to take meaningful action becomes

shorter and shorter. The next option is to do beach replenishment similar to what is done in Ocean City, when collected sand is removed from one area and used to replace what has already been moved around by natural processes. Next, the park could decide, as facilities, amenities and other manmade facets of the park are lost, to bid them a fond farewell and replace them elsewhere. Darden explained this process would end up transforming the park into an area more like Chincoteague Va., where more dayuse is encouraged. Finally, the park could focus solely on keeping what services it already provides current for as long as possible.

In addition to these large-scale issues and ideas, the meeting will also seek to resolve the long-standing problems associated with the bayside parking and camping areas. There are five possible solutions, with one being to take no action, naturally, and alternatives to rectify problems occurring in the existing areas due to erosion and storm damage. While these alternatives may seem drastic, they are relatively mild when compared to the plan for the Virginia side of the island, where park officials are putting the final touches on a proposal to move the public beach 1.5 miles to the north to reduce maintenance costs, as well as situate the public access part of the island on a more protected area.

Continued from Page 5 cilman Dennis Dare. Beyond that, in a third phase, both the 65th and 15th Street facilities could be further expanded in coming years with added engine bays and staff space. Which facility was expanded, however, is largely dependent on what happens with the city’s water treatment system, which constrains the ability of the 15th Street headquarters to grow. Additional space on the southwest corner of the existing fire headquarters will open up on once the city water tower currently located there is removed, following the completion of the new tower currently under construction on First Street. That space could accommodate a new live-in space and two new engine bays. However, the 15th Street headquarters currently utilizes parking adjacent to the city’s water treatment plant, across the alley that runs between 14th and 15th Streets. This area may be needed in the future for an expanded water treatment facility, depending on state requirements. Further, the parking lot to the south, along 14th Street, may be needed for a future desalinization facility if the city ever runs into problems with salt water seeping into the local aquifer. These water facility expansions would eliminate virtually all staff parking at fire headquarters, limiting growth potential. The northernmost engine bay of the existing facility could be demolished to create parking if new, improved bays were built on the south side of the structure. “If the parking lot at the bottom was to become the desalinization facility, there was a possibility to remove the north bay that is for nonemergency equipment,” OCFD Chief Chris Larmore said. “When we went to the volunteer board, quite surprisingly, but responsibly they said that before we actually look at that, maybe we do need to look at relocation of some of the equipment to midtown, which was something we had reluctantly looked at thinking that they would not be as receptive to that as they were to keeping everything at 15th Street.” While it is an independent nonprofit group, the OCVFC supplies a significant amount of the OCFD’s manpower. The department’s administrators, as well as its contingent of paid firefighters and paramedics, are funded out of the city’s taxes and other general revenues. Improving access and ventilation in the engine bays was the major concern of both volunteer and paid personnel, McGean noted. The engine bay vent system will be partially grant funded, and the headquarters renovation project is still on track to stay within a $2 million budget.

County explains jail budget transfers to cover light, heat Money moved from food and medical care to pay for utility bills, maintenance

By Brian Gilliland Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) Though the Worcester County Commissioners requested more information on several budget transfers during their meeting last Tuesday, one department in particular, the Worcester County Jail, drew the most attention. The jail officials requested moving $108,651 in surplus funds earmarked for other expenses and redistributing it to where shortfalls were occurring. One such transfer, commented on by Commissioner Ted Elder, would pay for $42,000 in electricity costs. But where the money comes from is also important. Almost the entire transferred amount — $106,100 — comes from funds related to prisoners’ health and food service. The jail reports saving $51,000 on food service, $20,100 in hospital charges, $19,000 in inmate supplies and services plus another $16,000 in inmate medical supplies and

services. The recaptured funds withdrawn from these areas will go to cover the electric bill of $42,000, general building repairs costing $19,000, heating oil costs of $15,000, tipping fees, custodial supplies as well as water and sewer bills. Budget Officer Kathy Whited released additional information on these expenses in response to a request by this newspaper ahead of the next commissioners’ meeting when fuller detail on all the expenses is expected. Whited said the power overage was because of rate increases by Delmarva Power, 3 percent, and Washington Electric at 10 percent. She also noted the jail saw an increase in use during the last year, but didn’t clarify by how much. The heating oil expense is because of colder weather, according to Whited, and the building repairs include a new washer, a replacement battery backup and replacement fuel oil controllers. The surpluses generated in other areas, according to Whited, are because of menu changes in food service, better prices arranged with Correct Care Solutions for medical supplies and cutbacks in inmate supplies.

Fall season of giving for local nonprofit orgs Wet weather forces some changes, but fundraising continues to ramp up

By Brian Gilliland Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) Local nonprofits are gearing up for their version of summer as fundraising efforts and events make their final press to find donors and solicit money before the end of the tax, and calendar, year.

‘Pretty much all of our public art fundraising comes from private donations. ’ Glenn Irwin, executive director of the Ocean City Development Corporation

and Somerset counties and partners with dozens of charitable and faithbased organizations. “This is an extremely charitable area — it’s in our DNA,” Williams said. “I believe that and know it from my experience. When it comes down to it, we’re very self-sufficient.” Historically, Williams said, federal and even state programs tended to overlook the lower shore. “I’ve found in my experience the last quarter is the big push. Nonprofit work leads to building continued support — stewardship in our case,” Kate Patton, director of the Lower Shore Land Trust said. The recent nor’easter and possible landfall of Hurricane Joaquin put a hamper on some fundraising activities — such as the Lower Shore Land Trust’s volunteer appreciation picnic. “It’s a really important event for us. Volunteers are the only way we achieve the capacity to meet our goals,” Patton said. The event, originally scheduled for the end of September, was moved instead to Oct. 3, and when the weather hit, the outdoor event was moved indoors. “The Berlin Lion’s Club helped us turn lemons into lemonade,” she said. The land trust’s plans weren’t the only ones affected. The Maryland Coastal Bays Program’s annual Osprey Sprint Triathlon was reduced to a duathlon — canceling the swim portion — on Sept. 26 because of rough water conditions. “I was shown such appreciation for the decision,” Sandi Smith, coordinator of marketing and development, said. “No one wanted to go out on the water.” The Coastal Bays Program also derives income from a deal with Assateague Island National Seashore, where it manages and maintains a concession stand. Because of the weather conditions, the decision was made to close the shop early, which reduced revenue. “During the final quarter, we’re inside because the weather is changing. We’re going to figure out our priorities and decide what to tackle, but we’re also gearing up for our annual membership drive,” Smith said. A few local nonprofits deal, directly or indirectly, with the arts. “Pretty much all of our public art fundraising comes from private donations,” Glenn Irwin, executive director of the Ocean City Development Corporation, said. “Our fundraising is more project-oriented.” The Art League of Ocean City’s Rina Thaler agrees. “Sometimes the arts are harder to sell but our community has come a long way and realize what they can bring back to them,” she said. The Art League’s major fundraiser, the Sandcastle Home Tour, was unafSee CLOSE Page 10

City pension expenses decline for fiscal year ‘15 Investment gains exceed estimates, but costs could go back up as market dips

By Zack Hoopes Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) The city will be looking at a considerable amount of budget headroom for the current fiscal year, with 2015 pension contributions having come in significantly less expensive than anticipated. However, Finance Administrator Martha Bennett urged the city council this week to hold off of appropriating any of the budget surplus to other projects, given that next year’s pension contribution may not come in as low. “Remember that our pension valuations are April-to-April. This report gives you a snapshot of what our plans looked like in April 2015. In the last six months, the markets have not done as well,” Bennett noted. The city contribution to its pension plans is determined each year by an actuarial study, which looks at the town’s employee base and estimates what the cost will be to support that group after they retire. The difference between what the city currently has in its trust funds, and what the estimated future liability comes out to be, is paid off with contributions over several years.

Last year’s contributions to the public safety and general employees’ pension funds were $2,588,213 and $2,036,678, respectively. Because police and firefighters receive different pension benefits from the rest of the employee base, separate trust and actuarial valuations are used. This year, those contribution levels have dropped a total of $306,538, to $2,390,758 for public safety and $1,927,595 for the general employees. In fact, the city had budgeted for contribution levels to go up, thus creating a budget surplus of $442,261. A decline in necessary payments is typically due to what are called actuarial gains, meaning that the actual experience of the plans turned out to be cheaper than the expectations that were built into the math. Bennett pointed to a number of actuarial-gain scenarios, such as health care costs and employee salaries increasing less than what had been planned. Some employees also delayed retirement, meaning that the span of time in which they will be collecting pension benefits decreased. The major factor in this year’s gains, however, was the above-anticipated capital gain from the investment of the trust funds. The plans assume a 7.5 percent return, but this year’s gains were 7.78 percent for the general employees’ fund and 7.76 in public safety.

However, sub-par investment performance - which is looking increasingly likely - would raise the city’s necessary contributions next year, Bennett noted. She urged the council to not earmark this year’s savings until the financial picture was clearer. “Since April, investment yields have not been very good, so I am a bit concerned about the amount we will need to fund next year,” Bennett said. Overall, the city’s pension plans continue to gradually improve their positions. The public safety trust’s current value of $53,018,749 covers 88.5 percent of expected future pension payouts, up from 85.8 percent as of last year’s valuation. The general employees’ trust of $52,292,301 covers 93.0 percent of anticipated costs, up from 90.7 percent last year. The public safety plan currently covers 154 employees who are still working, and who earned a total of $10,671,545 in salary last year - part of which they pay each week into the pension fund. The plan also covers 69 retired employees, who collected $2,804,703 last year in benefits. The general employees’ plan covers 266 active employees with a net payroll of $15,091,207, and 170 retirees who collect $2,467,626 in benefits annually. The general employees’ plan is closed to new entrants - as of 2011, all new city employees are given individ-

ualized 401(a) retirement accounts instead. The public safety plan is partially closed, with new firefighters being put on the 401(a). New police officers, per the city’s agreement with the Fraternal ORder of Police, are still being enrolled in the pension system.

Close of summer marks opportunity for nonprofit work Continued from Page 9 fected by the recent weather. “It was a good event,” she said, “and we had great community support. We’re in Ocean City and we have our summer in summer.” Not every nonprofit has the latitude the Art League does. As one of its regular fundraisers the OCDC hosts a golf tournament. Irwin said finding a weekend available that won’t conflict with another golf tournament can be tricky. Claudia Nagle, executive director of Diakonia, a temporary housing and food bank organization, depends on volunteers and those volunteers need to earn their living during an Ocean City summer. “We avoid summer weekends,” Nagle said. “We have people do things on our behalf, but without the support of community we can’t do what we do.” To gain the support of the community, it helps to engage the community in the things they already like to do. Such is the theory behind the local Pink Ribbon Classic series, which includes a fishing tournament, runs, walks, games and concerts — all funneling donations toward the American Cancer Society’s mission, but earmarked for breast cancer research in particular. Like all Maryland hospitals, Atlantic General Hospital is a nonprofit organization and kicks off the fall with a golf tournament, followed by the annual Penguin Swim in December and the hospital anniversary in spring. “We’re one of the newer hospitals and most of the community remembers what it’s like to live without one,” Toni Keiser, vice president of Public Relations at AGH, said. “We thrive on community ownership, so, for us, fundraising is a yearlong, ongoing effort,” she said. The same can be said of Believe In Tomorrow’s Children’s House by the Sea in Ocean City, which also has a major golf tournament in late spring, followed by multiple events throughout the year. While efforts ramp up during this time of year, fundraising for nonprofit organizations are often endless tasks. Each organization has its own structure for accepting time or money from interested individuals. To contribute, contact the organizations directly either by phone or via social media.

Shell Recycling Alliance

By Brian Gilliland Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) During the only state regulatory reform committee meeting to be held on the Eastern Shore, Delegate Mary Beth Carozza (R-38C) testified Tuesday in favor of including local arcade owners in the formulation of new rules after the old structure, according to her testimony, had been placed on “indefinite hold.” Held in Cambridge, the meeting was the last of six regional sessions of the Governor’s Regulatory Reform Commission, which has been charged with evaluating and improving the regulatory structures business people encounter in Maryland. Since last year, government and business owners have been grappling with how to handle, manage and regulate electronic gaming machines. These were devices that distributed in-kind prizes worth more than $30 and would be subject to registration, inspection and quarterly reporting. The intent is to regulate gray market gambling devices more often found in malls and certain stores throughout the state. But that definition also catches “merchandiser” machines commonly found in Boardwalk arcades. These machines offer prizes in return for completing a simple task, such as lining up a row of lights. Those devices on the Boardwalk, arcade owners argue, are loss leaders

and serve more to draw people in to play other games, such as skee-ball, rather than acting as profit centers themselves. “Late last month, the administrative, executive and legislative review committee of the Maryland General Assembly put these regulations on indefinite hold,” Carozza said. “Further, the new lottery director has said that any new regulations dealing with amusement devices will carve out historic arcade operators, which would include the boardwalk and other Maryland family arcade owners.” Chris Trimper of Trimper’s Amusements said he was pleased with the announcement. “We’ve been making slow progress,” he said. In her testimony, Carozza pointed out the negative impact of the original phosphorous management tool and the electronic gaming and skillsbased amusement devices regulations proposed by the O’Malley administration. “For the past several years, farmers and business owners from across the shore have had to take time out of their work and family life to go to Annapolis and Baltimore to oppose regulations proposed by the previous administration that would have devastated their businesses,” Carozza said. “If the small business owners, farmers, and watermen were pulled into the regulatory process on the front end, we could have avoided the expense, time, and heartache of fighting against regulations that would have destroyed these family businesses.”

Dead Freddies case adds plaintiff, defendant Amended claim negates defense’s motion; another OC restaurant facing claim

By Brian Gilliland Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) Another former employee of Dead Freddies, Yvonne Hothouse of Ocean City, has joined a developing class action suit against OC Freddies LLC, which now names Steve Carullo, a co-owner of the business, as a defendant. The lawsuit was filed Aug. 27 in federal court in Baltimore, alleging numerous wage and overtime violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act, Maryland Wage and Hour Law and the Maryland Wage Payment and Collection Law. While the defendants have until Monday to respond, the only document filed by the defense with the court is a motion to dismiss the claims of two plaintiffs, Desmond Dale of Ocean City and Salman Afridi of Salisbury. On Tuesday Judge Ellen Hollander denied the motion to dismiss, as the plaintiffs had filed an amended complaint addressing the issues to the court’s satisfaction earlier that day. Mark Saudek, the defense attorney, unsuccessfully argued the dates of employment of Dale and Afridi contained in the initial filing were too

Plaintiff Taylor Smith of Salis-

bury alleges he was forced to tip out bartenders, barbacks, dishwashers and food runners. Additionally, the lawsuit claims the defendants deducted 3.5 percent from gratuities paid by credit card to recoup processing fees. Court documents claim this charge was “excessive, did not reflect the actual business expenses in processing tips left on credit cards and was significantly more than what the defendants actually incurred in the course of their business.” The court documents claim Carullo is jointly and individually liable for wage and labor damages. “When employees aren’t paid properly, not only does it harm the ability of the employee to meet their obligations but also places employers who comply at a competitive disadvantage,” Howard Hoffman, attorney for the plaintiffs, said. “It’s the whole reason for the Fair Labor Standards Act.” Multiple calls to Stephen Carullo and Mark Saudek were not returned. In a related case also being argued by Hoffman, Travis Betz of Rockville, Md., accuses OC Abbey LLC, operator of Abbey Burger Bistro of paying him only straight wages, no matter how many hours he worked. In a response filed on Tuesday, the defense issues a blanket denial of the claims, except for jurisdictional, venue and applicable law sections.

Boaters beware: dredge pipes are out there Submerged gear can cause damage to vessels, sanity but no formal claims filed

By Brian Gilliland Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) There is a great deal going on in and around the Ocean City Inlet these days. Most recently two seemingly related incidents last Friday turned out to be coincidental. Commercial fishing vessel Betty C was hung up for about an hour trying to deliver her catch, according to a deckhand. The Betty C’s story is not unfamiliar: the vessel, loaded with clams, was not able to make it all the way into the harbor because of shoaling effects increased that dredging has yet to mitigate. The Army Corps of Engineers is waiting for a letter of intent from a nonfederal partner, which could include the Town of Ocean City or Worcester County to pursue congressional approval of a study to find the cause of the shoaling. As the Betty C arrived in port, an Army Corps dredge, the Murden, arrived to begin a two-week mission conducting bypass operations on Assateague Island. Since the formation of the inlet in 1933, sediment that would normally flow down the coast ends up pooling

at the bottom of the inlet. The Murden will pump this sediment back along the shore of Assateague Island, where it would have ended up naturally. This procedure is expected to continue for the next week. There has only been one con-

firmed report of a vessel colliding with a submerged dredge pipe, which occurred at the end of September. According to Natural Resources Police spokeswoman Candy Thompson, NRP officers filed an incident report concerning a boat striking a submerged dredge pipeline near the red 16 marker in Assawoman Bay. Thompson said no further investigation is indicated. According to Army Corps of Engineers Project Manager Graham Mcallister, contractor Goodloe Marine, based in Florida, was conducting Ocean City beach nourishment in the area at that time. The work, Mcallister said, required dredge pipes to be strung across the inlet. Corps Public Affairs Chief Chris Augsburger said any time dredge pipes reduce the charted depth by more than 10 percent, those pipes are required to be marked. As the inlet is charted for a depth of 10 feet, a reduction of only 1 foot triggers these requirements.

Augsburger said the 2-foot overdraft allowed at the inlet is not factored into these calculations. However, the pipes are required only to be marked at “regular intervals” by buoys or lights, and those intervals are regularly set at 1,000 feet, which means very few of them are required when working in this particular body of water. Should a collision occur, boaters are not without recourse, but finding and establishing fault is mired in a tangle of maritime law. At the same time, either an individual or an insurance company could make a claim per the Federal Tort Claims Act, according to Army Corps spokesman Chris Gardner. At this time, Augsburger said, no claims have been filed in relation to this or any other incident. Augsburger confirmed this is the first time the Army Corps has contracted with Goodloe Marine. The Coast Guard has issued several broadcasts to mariners detailing the location of submerged pipes.

American Legion hosts gala for wounded warriors, Sat.

By Kara Hallissey Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) The second annual Wounded Warriors Gala, hosted by American Legion Post #166, will take place Saturday evening, Oct. 17, at the 24th Street facility. The festivities begin at 5 p.m. with a social hour including hors d’oeuvres and drinks before a special program led by keynote speaker Dr. Debra Malone, a retired U.S. Army colonel and chief of trauma research at Walter Reed National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Md. “People will feel good they are making a difference in benefiting a local wounded warrior,” said American Legion Post #166 Commander Sarge Garlitz. “There will be 15 wounded warriors from Walter Reed at the dinner and visiting Ocean City from Oct. 15-18.” In addition, Department of Maryland State Commander Lewis Trott will say a few words and Ocean City Mayor Rick Meehan and Senator Jim Mathias will each present proclamations. Jerry Black, executive director of Veterans Support Centers of America, will be on hand to talk about the nonprofit in Quantico, Md. which provides shelter for homeless veterans, trains and rescues service dogs and gives back to troops returning home from war. Tickets cost $30 and are selling

quickly with proceeds benefiting Veterans Support Centers of America, Hometown Heroes and Operation Comfort Warrior. The money stays locally in Maryland, Garlitz said. Last year, $15,000 was raised and donated to wounded warrior charities. Hometown Heroes supports the soldiers’ family by providing lodging and Operation Comfort Warrior delivers items to military members in the hospital, Garlitz said. After the program, a cordon bleu dinner will be served while music plays and a silent auction fundraiser will be going on featuring gift certificates to restaurants, a vacuum cleaner, free hotel stays and much more. “Local people will have the chance to talk to wounded warriors,” Garlitz said. “An event like this brings awareness to Americans coming back from war who have serious problems.” The 15 wounded warriors visiting Ocean City have various activities planned for their trip including breakfast from the American Legion and VFW, a boat ride and lunch with United States Coast Guard in Ocean City and a trip to the Veterans Support Center of America near Salisbury. The Harrison Group will be providing complimentary lodging to the wounded warriors while they spend three nights in Ocean City, Garlitz said.

Retiring Lt. Delbert ‘Del’ Baker, surrounded by family, receives the Key to the City from Mayor Rick Meehan as Asst. Chief Chuck Barton looks on.

Lt. Del Baker retires after 30 years Received four Medals of Valor, Governor’s Citation and Hometown Hero award (Oct. 16, 2015) Lieutenant Delbert “Del” Baker has retired after 30 years with the Town of Ocean City. Baker, who started working for the Fire Department in 1984, began his career as a part time EMT and member of the Ocean City Beach Patrol. Moving his way through the ranks, Baker worked as a fire department dispatcher and a cardiac rescue technician. While his formal responsibilities included providing emergency first response to the residents and vis-

itors of Ocean City, he also served as a peer fitness instructor and commander of the dive unit and water rescue team, which he helped create and develop. “It has been an honor to serve the Town of Ocean City and the amazing people that comprise it,” Baker said. “My wish for everyone within the town and the fire department is to continue to strive to be the best you can be. Work together, be kind to everyone and kiss your spouse and kids every day and tell them that you love them. Someday, maybe you too can leave the department better than when you joined it.” Baker’s professional achievements are remarkable, but his reputation for being a leader

and mentor within the department is what most with miss after his retirement. The recipient of four Medals of Valor, a Governor’s Citation and the Ocean City Hometown Hero Award and Paramedic of the Year awards, Baker was loved within his department and his community. During retirement, Baker expects to enjoy longer vacations and spend more time with family. “I hope to continue my yearly winter vacations to the Florida Keys for some great fishing and diving,” Baker said. “For everything I have given to the city, I have received back tenfold. I will forever be grateful to the town for providing me and my family with abundant opportunity.”

The general public, especially those living in the West Ocean City/South Point area of legislative district 38C, are encouraged to attend. “We are excited to have Delegate Carozza holding one of her meet and greets in connection with a West Ocean City Association meeting, and hopeful that residents of this area will take advantage of this opportunity to let her learn and understand our challenges,” said longtime association member and community activist Carolyn Cummins. “Perhaps she can even assist us with our pedestrian safety concerns that are beyond just Route 50 intersections.” Delegate Carozza will review her experiences as a first-year member of the Maryland General Assembly. She will also talk about issues the legislature will face in its upcoming January session. Residents are also encouraged to bring concerns, issues, and other topics to discuss with Carozza.

Brewers prepare something special for beer festival

By Josh Davis Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) On Sept. 21 representatives from three breweries and supply store Xtreme Brewing came together at Assawoman Bay Brewing Company in Ocean City to concoct a pair of beers for the upcoming Shore Craft Beer Fest. Then, on Thursday, Oct. 8 Assawoman brew master Jason Weissberg took the next steps, transferring the Autumn Harvest and Breakfast Porter to Cornelius kegs and adding carbonation. While Jerry Franklin from 3rd Wave Brewing Co., Adam Davis from Backshore Brewing Company and Doug Grifith from Xtreme Brewing all pitched in initially, Weissberg worked on the finishing touches alone. Weissberg had already transferred both brews to new vessels and chilled them in a cooler inside the brewery, located on 45th Street. “With fermentation being done, there’s not as much fermentable sugars to ingest, so the yeast goes into a semi-dormant state,” Weissberg said. “By chilling it you actually encourage that dormant state to continue. What happens is the yeast, instead of moving around in that liquid, they become very still. Their electrochemical properties attract them to themselves and the other proteins in that liquid and when they reach a certain mass they drop to the bottom.” That process, Weissberg said, is known as “flocculating.” “That’s just the process by which yeast will drop out of the solution and form a cake at the bottom,” he said. Some breweries – and brewers – harvest that yeast and recycle it in new batches. “There are breweries throughout the world that are traditionally using the same yeast strain for hundreds of years,” Weissberg said. “Provided you take care of your yeast, you keep it clean, you keep it in a good environment and you use it in the proper time frame, you can use yeast for multiple generations.” Both beers were transferred into Cornelius kegs using a syphon, after which Weissberg carbonated the beers using old soda syrup containers attached to a fitting on the keg. A few days later, Weissberg will test the carbonation and transfer the brews to a standard keg, which is the last step before the beers can be served. Both new brews will be available during the Shore Craft Beer Fest, held Oct. 24 at Sunset Park in Ocean City from 12:30-4:30 p.m. General admission tickets are $25. VIP and designated driver passes are also available. For more information, visit www.ShoreCraftBeer.com.

Hooligans posing on Dodge Viper lead to several arrests By Kara Hallissey Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) Worcester County Sheriff Office deputies were called to a restaurant in West Ocean City last Friday night after several people were seen standing on top of a $100,000 Dodge Viper taking pictures. When the deputies arrived, two of the suspects allegedly attempted to flee but were detained by witnesses. The deputies also determined after seeing a photo that four people had posed on and around the car. Samuel Fazio, 18, of Lewes, Del. was arrested for driving under the influence and failure to notify the owner of unattended vehicle damage. Police reported several suspects attempted to flee before their arrival including Fazio, who hit a parked car. According to the report, Fazio

smelled like alcohol and failed field sobriety tests. Shayne Glasgow, 21, of Lewes, Del. was arrested and charged with possession with the intent to distribute marijuana, cocaine, mushrooms and prescription medication. A search uncovered, more than 470 grams of marijuana, cocaine, mushrooms, various controlled narcotic medications not prescribed to Glasgow and more than $5,000 in cash, according to the report. Glasgow was arrested, taken before a district court commissioner and is currently being held on a $125,000 bond in the Worcester County Jail. The remaining two suspects, Sean Digiacoma, 23, and Cody Coverdale, 20, both of Laurel, Del., were arrested before being released on criminal citations for disorderly conduct.

‘Typical dealer’ heroin stash Marijuana, two handguns found on man in Berlin bust located during traffic stop

By Josh Davis Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) Berlin police last Thursday announced the first significant heroin bust in the town in more than a year, as 19-year-old Richard Tye Mumford Jr. of Bishopville was charged with possessing more than 60 packets of the drug, with intent to distribute. Berlin police said they received a “concerned resident’s tip” of drug activity at the Bay Terrace Apartments on 517 Bay Street on Oct. 8. Officers arrived at the scene at approximately 11:30 a.m. and saw what they considered suspicious activity involving a 1998 Buick Park Avenue in the parking lot of the apartment complex. Police approached two men standing near the car. One fled and the other was questioned and released, according to police. When police approached the driver, Mumford, identified as a 5’6”, 135-pound African-American, they reported smelling a strong odor of marijuana coming from both his person and the car itself. A search of the vehicle turned up the heroin packets as well as a loaded .38 caliber handgun, four cell phones and $470 in cash.

Police reportedly also found a “large caliber bullet hole” near the glove compartment. The car was impounded and Mumford was taken to Worcester County Jail and charged with six counts including possession, intent to distribute and four counts related to possession of a handgun. Bond was initially set at $25,000. Officer Aaron Titerence with the Berlin Police Department said the amount of heroin seized was not unusual in this kind of circumstance. “Sixty, 70 to a hundred bags is usually what a typical dealer will carry on them at a time,” he said. “You’ll see up to thousands of bags at a stash house or in a dealer’s actual house.” Titerence said the street value of the individual bags could vary from as little as $10 to as much as $50 each. According to Maryland Judiciary Case Search a preliminary hearing was set for Nov. 3. The incident is still under investigation by the Berlin Police Department and the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office Criminal Enforcement Team.

POLICE/COURTS

Rape suspect caught Ocean City police detectives arrested Steven Grinder, 33, of Ocean City for second-degree rape and assault for an incident that occurred in July. On July 27, police were called to Dorchester Street and Baltimore Avenue where it is alleged that Grinder sexually assaulted a woman in his apartment, according to reports. The Maryland District Court issued a warrant for Grinder Oct. 7 and he was arrested later that evening at his residence. He was seen by a Maryland District Court commissioner and transferred to the Worcester County Jail without bond.

Heroin hidden Jason Burchick, 42, of Berlin and Lillyanne Horner, 19, of Milton, Del. were arrested Oct. 9 for possession and distribution of heroin. A detective secured a search warrant for Burchick and his residence Oct. 7. On Oct. 9, members of the Ocean City Narcotics Unit saw Burchick driving on Jarvis Road and pulled him over to execute their search warrant.

Police reported the search of Burchick revealed three wax paper bags with heroin attached. After searching Burchick’s car, a metal spoon with burnt cotton and a hypodermic syringe were located in Horner’s purse, the report stated. Another officer arrived on scene to assist with a search of Horner and 77 blue wax paper bags filled with heroin were allegedly located in her groin area.

WORLD WAR II: LÁZLÒ BÁRDOSSY By Peter Ayers Wimbrow III Contributing Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) This week, 70 years ago, an indictment was issued for Lázlò Bárdossy de Bárdos, who had been prime minister of Hungary when it entered the war on the side of the Axis. Bárdossy was born on Dec. 10, 1890 in Szombathely, near the Austrian border, which today has a population of 80,000 and is the 10th largest city in Hungary, as well as the oldest. When Bárdossy was growing up, Hungary was part of the dual monarchy of Austro-Hungary, with the emperor of Austria also being the king of Hungary. Bárdossy learned German and studied law in Budapest, Berlin and Paris. He also learned French and English. He began his career in government in 1913 at the Ministry of Culture. After World War I, the Allies separated Hungary and Austria and imposed the Treaty of Trianon on Hungary.This treaty emasculated Hungary and influenced its foreign affairs for the next 20 years, as it attempted to undo the parts of the treaty, which had stripped it of a third of its territory. The Treaty of Trianon dealt more harshly with Hungary than the Treaty of Versailles did with Germany.

A new Ministry of Foreign Affairs was created for Hungary and Bárdossy was appointed deputy chief of the Press Division of the new Ministry in 1922. From 1930 - 1934, he was the number two man in the Hungarian Embassy in London. On Oct. 24, 1934, he was appointed ambassador to Romania. When Foreign Minister István Csáky died on Jan. 28, 1941, Prime Minister Pál Teleki appointed Bárdossy as his successor the next day. These were tense times for the Kingdom of Hungary. Since the Treaty of Trianon had emasculated the kingdom, its goal had been to reverse those provisions of the treaty. With German help, steps had been taken. The first was the First Vienna Award of Nov. 2, 1938, which awarded Hungary parts of Slovakia. It resulted in Hungary recovering more than 10,000 square kilometers, with more than 900,000 inhabitants, more than half of whom were Hungarians. The award included the City of Kassa, which is the second largest city in Slovakia, with a population of 250,000. At the time, its population was 65,000. Its Slovakian name is Košice. The second step was the Second Vienna Award of Aug. 30, 1940, which awarded Hungary the northern half of Transylvania, which had been transferred to Romania by the Treaty of Trianon. In this award,

Lázlò Bárdossy de Bárdos, former Prime Minister of Hungary

Hungary acquired 44,000 square kilometers with a population of 2.7 million, of whom more than half were Hungarian. These steps, of course, put Hungary in Germany’s debt. By this time, Germany and Slovakia had divided Poland with the USSR, France had been defeated and Germany and Italy were at war with the United Kingdom, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. In October 1940, the Kingdom of Italy had invaded Greece, after being specifically warned by its German ally not to do it. Things didn’t go well for the Italians and everyone knew that the Germans would have to pull their fat out of the fire. The Kingdom of Yugoslavia in March 1941 joined the

Tri-Partite Pact, which included Germany, Italy, Japan, Romania, Bulgaria and Slovakia. A few months before that, the Kingdoms of Hungary and Yugoslavia had executed a Friendship Pact. In order for the Germans to assist their Italian ally in Greece, they would have to get their troops there by traversing Hungary and Yugoslavia. Both agreed. But, a few days after agreeing and joining the TriPartite Pact, on March 27, 1941, a coup was orchestrated and initiated in Yugoslavia by the British. The regent, Prince Paul, was replaced by the teen-aged king, Peter II and the prime minister, Draghiša Cvetković, was replaced by Gen. Dušan Simović. Immediately, the German Führer summoned the Hungarian ambassador, Gen. Döme Sztójay, and began offering Hungary the opportunity to recover even more territory from Yugoslavia that had also been lost to Trianon. Ambassador Sztójay flew from Berlin to Budapest on Hitler’s private plane and met with Prime Minister Teleki, Foreign Minister Bárdossy and the Regent Adm. Miklós Horthy. The prime minister felt that his and the nation’s honor were at stake as a result of the Eternal Friendship Pact. However, the regent reasoned that Hitler had said that Yugoslavia would soon cease to exist and therefore the pact would be a nullity. The men agreed to consult with the minister of defense the next day. As a result of that meeting, the Hungarian regent sent the German Führer a letter, essentially accepting his proposal. Already, German Gen. Friedrich Paulus was in Budapest, meeting

WORLD WAR II: LÁZLÒ BÁRDOSSY with Gen. Henrik Werth, chief of the Hungarian general staff. Gen. Werth was told that the invasion would begin on April 12 and Hungarian troops should advance three days later. Meanwhile, the United Kingdom threatened to declare war on Hungary if it invaded Yugoslavia. On April 3, Prime Minister Teleki, feeling dishonored and shamed, committed suicide. Bárdossy was, on that day, appointed his successor. Unbeknownst to him, it was also a death sentence. In his suicide note, Count Teleki said, “You have thrown away our honor. We have joined the side of gangsters.” The Wehrmacht invaded Yugoslavia on April 6, 1941. The UK severed diplomatic relations. On April 10, Croatian independence was declared and immediately recognized by the Axis countries, thereby fulfilling Hitler’s prediction that Yugoslavia would cease to exist. Now, there was no more Yugoslavia. This was the same sequence that the Germans followed in Czecho-Slovakia. After guaranteeing CzechoSlovakia’s integrity at Munich, the Germans reasoned that once Slovakia became independent, its guarantee evaporated, because the country that it guaranteed no longer existed. The Royal Hungarian Army made its move in Yugoslavia, incorporating another 11,500 square kilometers with 1 million inhabitants, of whom 40 percent were Hungarian, into the Kingdom’s borders. Operation Barbarrosa was launched on June 22, 1941, by Germany, Finland, Slovakia, Croatia, Italy and Romania. The Germans did not ask Hungary for a contribution and it offered none. On June 26, three Soviet fighters attacked a Hungarian train. An hour later, unidentified (to this day) planes dropped 29 bombs on Kassa. They could have been Soviet and had an old map showing the city still within Slovakian borders. In any event, war was declared. On Dec. 5, the Red Army launched a massive offensive, driving the Wehrmacht from the gates of Moscow, and the United Kingdom declared war on Hungary. The next day, Australia, Canada, South Africa and New Zealand followed suit. Hungary declared war on the United States on Dec. 11, 1941. All occurred during Bárdossy’s term as prime minister, which ended on March 7, 1942, when he was replaced by Miklós Kállay. Bárdossy’s trial was scheduled to begin before the People’s Court, on Oct. 29, 1945, less than two weeks after he had been served with the indictment. On Nov. 2, he was, of course, convicted and sentenced to die by hanging. His appeal was heard on Dec. 28 and the judgment affirmed. Execution was scheduled for Jan.10, 1946. The night before his execution, the Supreme National Council changed the method of execution

to firing squad, but the condemned did not learn of the change until he arrived at the site of the execution. In any event, he was spared a gruesome, painful death, because Hungarian hangings were not as merciful as those of the Anglo-Americans. When the command to fire was given, the former prime minister shouted, “May God preserve the country from these ...,” at which point the bullets slammed into his body. But they didn’t do the job. It had to be finished by handgun at close range.

Decatur volleyball team tops Wi-Hi and N. Dorchester

By Lisa Capitelli Managing Editor (Oct. 16, 2015) The Stephen Decatur volleyball team earned victories over the North Dorchester Eagles and WiHi Indians this week. On Monday, Decatur traveled to Hurlock to take on North Dorchester.

and three kills. Lago had three aces, three kills, two blocks and a dig. Decatur has four regular-season matches remaining. The Seahawks will take a trip to Snow Hill to play the Eagles on Monday at 5:30 p.m. then two days later they will face the Parkside Rams at 5:15 p.m. in Berlin. On Monday, Oct. 26, Decatur will

host the Queen Anne’s Lions at 5:15 p.m. The final game of the regular season is Wednesday, Oct. 28, against the Kent Island Buccaneers in Stevensville at 5:15 p.m. “We have some difficult games coming up in the next two weeks,” Patrick said. “I think the team looks great and ready for the challenge.”

By Lisa Capitelli Managing Editor (Oct. 16, 2015) The Worcester Prep girls’ soccer team wrapped up regular-season competition on Wednesday, shutting out the Salisbury School Dragons 4-0. “It wasn’t pretty, but we won,” said Prep Coach Carol Hartnett. Scoreless after 40 minutes, Hartnett Carol Hartnett said the first half was probably the Lady Mallards’ worst half of soccer this season. “That’s the first time I’ve said this all season,” she said. “We were flat. We were just off. We couldn’t put passes together.” During the halftime break, Hartnett told the girls to hit the reset button. “I said ‘let’s restart. You have 40 minutes left of the regular season,” Hartnett continued. “We pulled it together in the second half.” Freshman Delaney Abercrombie got things rolling for Worcester by firing a shot that the Salisbury goalie bobbled, but she was ready and finished the loose ball in the back of the net. Junior Madison Bescak and senior Tori Barros contributed to the win with one goal apiece. Freshman Grace Gardner made five saves playing in goal for 70 minutes. Julia Godwin, a freshman, took over in goal for the final 10 minutes. She stopped one shot. “I’m glad we got that out of our system. If I can say in 18 halves of soccer that we only had one bad half, then what a great season it’s been,” Hartnett said. This season, the Mallards scored 51 goals and only gave up one. That accomplishment, Hartnett said, was a team effort. “Only one goal, that’s amazing,” she said. The offensive players do their job and the defense keeps the ball away from the goal, she said. When the ball does get to the young goalies, Hartnett said they are talented, skilled and smart players who have come up with some big saves. Worcester finished the regular season 9-0. The Mallards earned the top seed in the Eastern Shore Independent Athletic Conference tournament and will play fourth-seeded See WP Page 36

They’re poised and confident,” Hartnett said. “We’re talented, from the seniors to the freshmen.” The winner of the Worcester– Salisbury Christian game will face the winner of the other ESIAC semifinal match between Saints Peter & Paul and Salisbury School, on Friday.

Decatur, WP participate in Classic Both Mallard teams finish 18th; Lady Seahawks place 11th overall, boys take fifth

By Lisa Capitelli Managing Editor (Oct. 16, 2015) Approximately 500 runners representing schools in Maryland, Delaware and Virginia participated in last Wednesday’s Tidewater Fall Classic at Winter Place Park in Salisbury. Berlin schools Stephen Decatur and Worcester Prep competed in the meet. “The competition was pretty strong,” said Decatur Coach Jody Stigler. “There were like 500 total athletes …which is a lot. When you have [more than 20] schools, the competition is bound to be pretty strong.” Decatur’s boys’ squad finished fifth overall out of 23 schools that scored points. The Lady Seahawks came in 11th place out of 22 schools. Both Worcester Prep teams finished 18th overall. “It was a great experience for everyone. It was so much fun seeing hundreds of kids give it everything they had. I was also amazed at how good some of the other teams are,” said Prep Coach Keith Geiger. This is the first season for the Worcester Prep cross country program. “We’ve seen some good schools, like Stephen Decatur so far, but there were a couple Delaware schools, and schools from over the bridge that were unbelievable,” he added. “It’s good to put things in perspective and understand that in order to have a successful program, we need to work at it for a couple years.” Sophomore Jack Reimer led Decatur, crossing the finish line 25th overall (18:06.73) out of 273 runners. Also scoring points for the Seahawks were juniors James Cameron

(29th, 18:13.68), Javier Hernandez (30th, 18:16.36) and Jared Massey (46th, 18:39.70), and sophomore Matt Alvarado (94th, 19:39.46). Northwest High School won the boys’ competition with 38 points. Finishing second through fifth were Sussex Tech (80), Caesar Rodney (156), Kent Island (168) and Decatur (206). Senior Rachel Savage was the first Lady Seahawk to complete the 5K. She placed 22nd overall out of 227 runners (21:44.18). Rounding out the top five Decatur runners were junior Peyton DunKeith Geiger ham (34th, 22:16.15), senior Alison Alvarado (37th, 22:19.71) and freshmen Nellie DeHart (78th, 23:55.05) and Kailey Andrews (83rd, 24:06.99). Northwest High School won the girls’ competition with 69 points. Decatur scored 238 for 11th place. “We basically perJody Stigler formed about what I expected for both boys and girls,” Stigler said. “I thought the boys ran a little better than the girls.” The boys’ team finished second among Bayside Conference schools and the girls were fifth. “I would say we are definitely getting better since the beginning of the season. With Baysides coming, I think we look pretty good, [but] we are going to have to continue to get better going into the Bayside [Conference] meet [on Oct. 28],” Stigler said. “We really need to work on our first mile or so. I felt like some of our runners got caught further back in the beginning of the race and didn’t really give themselves a chance for

the last two miles.” Geiger thought the Prep runners did well considering it was their first time competing in a big event. Junior Carter Hill was the first Worcester Prep runner to cross the finish line. He placed 18th overall (17:30.42), which Geiger said was a “great accomplishment.” Junior Trent Marshall (89th, 19:31.68), sophomores Connor Cebula (151st, 21:08.75) and Matt Wilson (155th, 21:10.87) and freshman Jack Walinskas (208th, 22:38.39) also scored points for Worcester. “The boys were 18th out of 23, which is great. We were very close to the next couple of schools, so it was encouraging,” Geiger said. “We have a young boys team, so overall they will definitely get better and better and hopefully next year we can move up a couple of spots.” Sophomore Annemarie Cherry led the Lady Mallards, finishing 85th overall (24:09.33). “Annemarie Cherry led our girls for the first time this year. It was great for her because she works so hard in practice,” Geiger said. “It was nice to see the hard work pay off.” Sophomore Lillybelle Baker (105th, 24:56.37), seniors Lauren Dykes (127th, 25:42.96) and Sarah Koon (176th, 28:10.63) and sophomore Olivia Parker (198th, 30:52.37) rounded out Worcester’s top five female runners. “The girls have been doing great, considering we haven’t really had a healthy team since the first meet,” Geiger said. “At least one or two of the top five girls have been out with illness or injury for the last three weeks. I would like to see what the girls could do with a full healthy team, but we’ve had some other girls step up and really run their best.” Both teams will meet on Decatur’s course in Berlin on Wednesday at 4 p.m.

WP golf team going for eighth title Coach Dailey: The kids seem really focused on winning the championship By Lisa Capitelli Managing Editor (Oct. 16, 2015) The Worcester Prep golf team hopes to bring home its eighth consecutive Eastern Shore Independent Athletic Conference trophy on Tuesday, Oct. 20. The Mallards will host the Salisbury School Dragons and Salisbury Christian Jaguars in a nine-hole tournament at GlenRiddle Golf Club in Berlin on the Man O’ War course, beginning at 2:30 p.m. Worcester went undefeated (6-0) in the ESIAC and defeated both teams easily during the regular sea-

son. The closest Salisbury Christian and Salisbury School came to Worcester during a match was 13 and 57 strokes, respectively. “The kids seem really focused on winning the championship,” said Prep Coach Scot Dailey. “They definitely know there is a lot on the line just to participate, so the focus is there. We’ve tried to keep it competitive Scot Dailey [during practice] with three, nine-hole qualifiers to determine who plays in the tournament.” The Mallards have had a few weeks of practice after their last match to prepare for the ESIAC championship. They have competed

in two qualifiers, with the third to take place the day before the tournament to determine who will represent Worcester. Senior captains Jason Cook and John Meakin and sophomore Austin Taylor qualified for every match during the regular season and will also participate in the ESIAC championship. The other three golfers who will represent Worcester will be decided after the qualifier on Monday. “We have so much depth,” Dailey said. If the Mallards want to capture their eighth consecutive title, Dailey said they need to “play smart, focus on keeping the ball in play, not get ahead of ourselves and don’t overlook anyone.”

After first goal, momentum shifts in WP favor

By Lisa Capitelli Managing Editor (Oct. 16, 2015) Trailing 1-0 to the Holly Grove Eagles on Monday in Berlin, the Worcester Prep boys’ soccer team fought and fought for a goal and was finally successful. Once the first was scored, the Mallards took that momentum and put away three more shots to win 4-1. Holly Grove scored off a corner kick about a minute before halftime. “We were dominating. For long periods of time we were out-possessing them,” Prep Coach Terry Underkoffler

said. “With about 10 minutes to go, we struggled to clear it out and were taking unnecessary risks and they started pressing us.” During halftime, Underkoffler told the Mallards they needed to “play with attacking urgency, keep moving the ball, keep looking for runners off the ball and finish your chances. It will come.” With about 22 minutes left in the game, freshman Colin Miller played a short corner kick to junior captain Owen Nally, who fired off a shot. The ball got away from the Holly Grove goalie and junior Tate Shockley finished it.

“The first goal really changed all the momentum then we started rolling and playing better,” Nally said. “We definitely started playing harder and had more incentive to keep going and score another.” About 30 seconds later, senior goalie Charlie Pritchard (four saves) scooped up the ball and punted it past the midfield line. It went over the head of a Holly Grove player, Nally got control of it, and passed to junior captain Patrick Petrera. He shot to the far post and Worcester led 2-1. With the momentum in their favor,

sophomore Tucker Brown passed to an open Nally who scored with 19:43 on the clock to make it 3-1. Senior Elio Telo played the ball across the goal mouth to Nally who put it away with 9:29 remaining. “That was the best game at forward I have seen by Owen Nally,” Underkoffler said. “It seems when the importance of the game rises, so does his level of play. His attacking tenacity up front reminded me of another Nally (his brother, Ryan) not so long ago.” The Salisbury School Dragons came See MALLARDS Page 38

Pritchard stopped three Salisbury shots. “It was a physical game. Salisbury School challenged us on the ball,” Underkoffler said. “We made some adjustments and then we were successful at getting behind the defense. Once the goals started they came quickly.” Worcester’s 10 seniors will be honored before the final game of the regular season on Friday against the Delmarva Christian Royals at 4 p.m. The Eastern Shore Independent Athletic Conference semifinal round is slated for Wednesday.

Passing right now is what we’re doing well.”

Decatur Seahawks ‘inconsistent’ in game against KC

We had opportunities, we just didn’t take advantage,” Knox said. “We didn’t execute well enough on either side of the ball. There were a couple good individual efforts, but football is a team game.” The visiting Seahawks led 9-0 in See DECATUR Page 39

CLEAR OUT Stephen Decatur junior Andy McKahan plays the ball out of the defensive end during Wednesday's game against North Caroline. "I thought we played well.

KARA HALLISSEY/OCEAN CITY TODAY

Ted Oberheitmann cooks authentic Italian food at Touch of Italy last week on 66th Street.

Expanded Restaurant Week continues Owners, chefs get creative during two-week promo that includes 20 establishments By Kara Hallissey Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) Ocean City’s biannual Restaurant Week, which started last Sunday, continues through Oct. 25, offering additional discounts on already low off-season prices. This year, during the fall incarnation of Restaurant Week, more than 20 restaurants are participating in the resort. “What we are trying to do in the fall is have good deals on great food instead of price points because everyone has good deals already,” said Susan Jones, executive director of the Ocean City Hotel-Motel-Restaurant Association, which organizes the annual event. She added that, because October was recently named Shore Craft Beer Month in Ocean City, the organization challenged restaurants to incorporate beer pairings in their menus. “A handful have taken us up on it,” she said. Touch of Italy on 66th Street will offer a Burley and Blue Brewer’s Board, which is a handcrafted antipasti board with cheeses and ham with suggested pairings of Burley Oak Secret Sauce on tap or a Maker’s Mark

barrel-aged Rudeboy barley wine. “We are passionate about Ocean City Craft Beer month and have really good meats and cheeses that go well with craft beers,” said General Manager Matt Ellison. Touch of Italy’s $29.95 Restaurant Week menu includes an arugula salad, or “Insalata di Rucola,” topped with red onions, marinated artichokes, candied walnuts and balsamic dressing. For main dishes, the restaurant is featuring its special Bolognese, “Garganelli alla Bolognese,” an Old World recipe with their classic meat sauce, grated parmigiano reggiano and basil. In addition, the Italian restaurant will serve its “Pollo al Taleggio,” a chicken cutlet breaded in homemade crumbs, pan-seared in a white wine Italian herb sauce and topped with melted taleggio cheese and prosciutto di parma, served over a bed of sautéed spinach. Touch of Italy’s special menu, which comes with a starter, pasta dish, meat dish and dessert, will be available every day starting at 5 p.m., except for Fridays and Saturdays. “The menu gives guests an opportunity to try out a little bit of everything,” Ellison said. “It’s an Italian experience in an intimate setting with everything authentically made or imported from Italy.” Horizons Restaurant in the Clarion

on 101st Street has craft beer pairings with all three of its entrees, and patrons have the option of three courses for $35 or an entrée and an additional course for $30. “It gives the menu an entire fresh look, makes it more interesting and brings out the flavors,” said Richard Heubeck, food and beverage director at the Clarion. “Burley Oak, Dogfish and Evolution are all represented.” Horizon’s special dinner menu includes a choice of starters such as cream of crab soup, a black bean cake with a shrimp salsa and lime cream, or roasted tenderloin with caramelized onions and a goat cheese crostini with a roasted pepper coulis and arugula. Entrees include a tortilla-crusted salmon with a chilled lime cream that has a suggested pairing of Burley Oak Secret Sauce; Dogfish Punkin Ale is recommended for their pork tenderloin with honey-kissed apples, truffle parmesan fries and broccoli rabe; and a chargrilled shrimp over penne oil and garlic with roasted tomatoes and broccoli rabe is paired with Evo’s Lot 3 by the chef. “We participate every year because it’s a great way to showcase the restaurant, chef and hotel,” Heubeck said. “We get to try out new dishes and it has a nice following. People come out every year and it’s always nice to get feedback See CRAFT Page 42

By Lauren Bunting Contributing Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) Most of the news in the real estate market is positive, but repeat foreclosures are a new worry for the industry. The term may seem like an oxymoron, but repeat foreclosures are possible because of legislation put into effect that requires banks to make more of an effort to help homeowners save their homes, instead of jumping straight to foreclosure when a homeowner goes into default. Simply put, a repeat foreclosure is when a home has been in the foreclosure process once, but is saved by either a loan modification or payment program, but then goes back into foreclosure. Repeat foreclosures can happen when the borrower either can’t or won’t keep up with the loan modification new payment plan. The process is worse in “judicial” foreclosure states, meaning that the judge is involved in the process of the foreclosure, of which, Maryland is one. Judicial foreclosure states have longer foreclosure timelines and processing times, as well as a more likely backlog of foreclosures. During the time of the real estate market crisis, banks were put under pressure to modify loans through lowering interest rates and increasing the term of the payoff for mortgagors. But in the end, many of the borrowers did not have sufficient cash flow to pay the mortgage, regardless of the rate reduction. Plus, many of the loan modifications were designed to significantly reduce the mortgage rate for the first year or two, but then gradually the interest rate increases, and in turn, so does the monthly mortgage payment. Black Knight, a data and analytics company, released their monthly Mortgage Monitor report that showed a 6.76 percent increase in August 2015 foreclosures, which was mostly driven by repeat foreclosures. First time foreclosure starts were actually down month over month. Repeat foreclosures accounted for 57 percent of the 80,500 foreclosure starts reported in August, the largest share of repeat foreclosures for one month on record and a 13 percent jump month over month, according to Black Knight. While there was an increase in repeat foreclosure starts in August, there was a decline in the number of first time foreclosure starts.

Duffyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s will have a three-course dinner for $19.99, which comes with dessert and a soup or salad. Chicken Florentine, a 12-ounce Angus New York Strip, seafood stuffed tomato and a daily catch of the day will be the four dinner options. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At some places, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s their busiest week of the year,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good program and has been a good two weeks for us.â&#x20AC;? Bayline said he and Beverly Criner, the chef at Duffyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for 30 years, enjoy going to different places and trying out dishes to recreate or put a twist on. Talking about new items and trying them out keeps the menu fresh, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We enjoy new people coming in to see us,â&#x20AC;? Bayline said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an interesting clientele that week and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fun catering to the foodies.â&#x20AC;? Adam Sanders, owner of Jules Restaurant on 118th Street, agreed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great opportunity and we love it,â&#x20AC;? Sanders said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone looks forward to, it including the servers. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s our last big hurrah until New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eve.â&#x20AC;? Sandersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Restaurant Week menu features the standard three courses for $30, including butternut squash soup, a smoked fishplate, stuffed Portobello, a house salad and five additional appetizers. For main dishes, diners have seven options to choose from including drunken duck breast, cheese ravioli, boneless braised short ribs and a filet mignon. If seated by 6 p.m., guests receive a free glass of wine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a little something for everyone,â&#x20AC;? Sanders said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have the best smoked fish in the world and [we] make all our food in house, including soups and sauces.â&#x20AC;? Jules Restaurant has participated in Restaurant Week since its inception because â&#x20AC;&#x153;it gets people to come out and try different restaurants they can afford,â&#x20AC;? Sanders said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love Ocean City and we have great restaurants here,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This gives people an opportunity to come try them.â&#x20AC;? The Skye Bar & Grill on 66th Street will offer a two-for-$20 lunch menu, and three courses at dinnertime for $30, including appetizers, salads, en-

trees and desserts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good marketing,â&#x20AC;? said Chef Gary Beach, who joined the team of Chef Barney Bowen and Pastry Chef Andy Caswell in August. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People can come try out a spot they have never been.â&#x20AC;? Lunch options include cheesesteaks, pulled pork sandwiches, bacon cheeseburgers, a grilled tuna sandwich with mango salsa and seven others offerings. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You try great food for a moderate price,â&#x20AC;? said Roger Cebula, owner of the Skye Bar & Grill. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great for people to come out and try the restaurant.â&#x20AC;? The special dinner menu includes a choice of starters such as tuna nachos, clams casino, raw oysters and shrimp. A Jamaican roasted half chicken with roasted red pepper, a single broiled lump crab cake with chipotle tartar sauce, a roasted garlic-rubbed bleu cheese crusted petite filet with truffle demi-glace, and blackened Faroe Island salmon with Tasso ham gravy make up entrĂŠe options, along with six others. Desserts are homemade by Caswell with a triple-layer carrot cake with cream cheese icing, a vanilla crĂ¨me brĂťlĂŠe, chocolate decadent cake, peanut butter pie and French toast bread pudding with cinnamon ice cream and a Jim Beam maple-syrup glaze. The Skye Bar & Grill will also have wine pairings, Cebula said. Jones brought the idea for Restaurant Week back from a travel summit on the western shore in 2007, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an opportunity for both restaurants and diners,â&#x20AC;? Jones said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chefs create what they want and diners get great deals â&#x20AC;&#x201D; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a win-win. It also drives the local economy, puts tips in waitressesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; pockets and helps everyone all around.â&#x20AC;? Alcohol, tax and gratuity are not included in Restaurant Weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s special menu prices. Participating restaurants will still have regular, full-price menus available during the special.

T.J.Maxx to host grand opening at Gold Coast Mall

By Brian Gilliland Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) After almost a year of moving from rumor to speculation then confirmation followed by construction and redevelopment, the T.J.Maxx at the Gold Coast Mall on 115th Street will open its doors this Sunday at 8 a.m. When first confirmed by mall owner Fred Wine in March, the store was slated to open in August. A formal ribbon cutting will precede the opening of the new store at 7:30 a.m. where the retailer is expected to present a $5,000 donation to local shelter and food bank Diakonia. “To celebrate the opening of every new store, T.J.Maxx partners with one local charity organization to find ways to enrich the community we are joining through monetary donations and associate volunteerism. We selected Diakonia because of their strong commitment to the Ocean City community, as well as the excellent volunteer opportunities they provide for our associates to give back and continue the relationship,” Brittany Farrell, T.J.Maxx public relations, said. Claudia Nagle, executive director of Diakonia welcomed the contribution and said she was very pleased Diakonia was selected. Farrell said the 25,010-square-foot store would support approximately 60 full and part time positions, but did not clarify how many of each would be

cate meighan inside going out re you all classic car fans? I’ll readily admit that I’m really not, but that said, I was really impressed by some of the cool old rides that infiltrated Ocean City’s traffic last weekend. The Endless Summer Cruisin Car Show was technically held at both the OC convention center on 40th Street as well as at the inlet, but cars really were everywhere. I love how nearly every event that takes place here ends up with a mountain of support from visitors from all over the place. That ultimately means a strong financial bottom line for local business owners and it keeps OCMD thriving. Can you believe that October is already half over? Forget about the summer, how has fall flown by this quickly? It seems like I was just sitting in beach traffic and now suddenly I’m gearing up to talk about closing parties and of course, Halloween. But before we’re on the hunt for the perfect costume comes that cool little universal tradition (at least in the states) known as Octoberfest. OCtoberfest on the Beach will take place on Saturday, Oct. 17 and Sunday, Oct. 18 with various activities for the whole family to enjoy. The Howl-O-Ween Pet Parade will be on Saturday at 1 p.m. and a really cool beach maze will begin at 10 a.m. on both days. Check out www.octoberfestmd.com for more information on this event. Berlin’s Octoberfest & the Born To Be Wild Hobby Horse Race will take place on Sunday, Oct. 17 on Main Street in historic Berlin. The event, hosted by Ocean 98, will feature pumpkin painting, a giant pirate slide, kids activities and live music with Vintage Hi-Fi. The beer will be from Burley Oak Brewing Company and Rosenfeld’s Jewish Deli will be just one of the vendors on hand with some great food. Brass Balls Saloon on 11th Street and the boards will be having its “Use the Booze” closing party on Saturday, Oct. 17 from 5 p.m. until closing. There will be half-price food and drink specials (a few exceptions may apply) until everything runs out.

Ginny Harmon, left, has been a member of the Atlantic United Methodist Church since 1939, and June Todd, the church’s choir director, has been providing music since 1962. A celebration will take place at the Fourth Street church on Sunday to commemorate its 100th anniversary.

Atlantic United Methodist Church marks 100 years

By Kara Hallissey Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) Atlantic United Methodist Church, on the corner of Baltimore Ave. and Fourth Street, has been celebrating its 100th anniversary all year with a variety of events including a celebration and service this Sunday, Oct. 18 at 3 p.m. The service will include an Atlantic bell choir and praise team, five former ministers will be in attendance and a few will speak, and Mayor Rick Meehan will read a proclamation. “We sent out invitations to all the other churches in town and the public is invited,” said Atlantic United Methodist Church’s Choir Director, June Todd. “I am hoping for at least 200 people and it would be wonderful to have a full church.” A video depicting the past and present of Atlantic United Methodist Church will play with comments from congregation members, old photos and current ones. In addition, there will be a greeting from Rev. Fred Duncan, Salisbury Methodist district superintendent and Senator Jim Mathias will be in attendance. Atlantic United Methodist Church’s anniversary is April 25, 1915. On this date, more than 65 local community

members gathered and passed a resolution to request the Wilmington Conference establish a Methodist Church in Ocean City and to send a pastor to serve the congregation. Land was purchased for $2,000 and the construction of the church was completed in 1919. Before completion, members held services on Third Street at the Bamboo Apartments. Aid was received from the Centenary movement fund of the Methodist Episcopal Church and $10,000 was raised by 1923. Records show the church was free from debt by 1944. A parsonage was built in 1929 and additional facilities were added for Sunday school and fellowship activi-

ties. The church’s hall and kitchen were built in 1951. Fundraising church dinners were held during the 1950s in the preacher’s basement. The Building and Planning Committee of Atlantic United Methodist Church began making preparations for building the current church in 1961 after Pastor Ralph Minker found termites in the foundation. Hensel Fink was the architect and George Cropper, Inc. was given the contract for construction. The original church was completely torn down and a more contemporary style architecture was adopted. “We were fortunate to save the See PRAISE Page 46

The church was completed in June 1962 with a service celebrating the laying of the cornerstone on Aug. 26. Cropper rushed to complete the church in time for his daughter, Jackie’s wedding on Aug. 18 and carpenters were still working on the pews the night of her rehearsal. The cross above the altar was a gift from Cropper in honor of his daughter’s marriage, Todd said. During the 1960s, Pastor Richard Gibson held services at three area churches in Ocean City, Bethany Beach and Taylorville. In addition, church dinners started to grow in attendance. Soup sales started to take off during this time and the church continues to offer a soup and sandwich fundraiser monthly every winter. The thrift shop was organized and opened in the late 1960s. During the 1970s, Todd helped organize a small bazaar and assisted in publishing a cookbook to raise money. Also, an annual fashion show was added to fundraising efforts. In 1989, Todd thought it would be

To Todd’s surprise, the plaque read, “Given to the glory of God and in honor of June Rose Todd, organist since 1962 by the members and friends of Atlantic United Methodist Church.” In 1997, an addition was added onto the church, which provided a new, larger choir room. The thrift shops current location was constructed and an education building rounded out the renovations. The churches mission statement reads “Atlantic is an outpost of the kingdom of God in Ocean City, Maryland called to build disciples for Jesus Christ.” On that note, the church has a

who are no longer with us and many weddings and memorial services for which I’ve played,” Todd said. “I hope my music was meaningful to the families. It has been a wonderful journey and one that I hope is not quite ended. I still enjoy playing and directing the choirs.” Olin Shockley met his wife, Dorothy, at Atlantic United Methodist Church in the early 1950s and they were married at the church three years later by Pastor Donald Hornung. Shockley has been a member of the church for 64 years. Shortly after getting married, Shockley received his call to be a minister under the spiritual leadership of Hornung. He preached his first sermons in the old church and years later participated in Charles Spry’s funeral, the church’s first pastor. “Though we have been associated See AUMC Page 47

They participate in a backpack program where snacks, cereals and fruits are packaged for underprivileged children. In addition, they have flea markets and are active with Helping Hands in Worcester County three times a week. The church’s current pastor, Patty Frick, is its first female pastor. “It’s the hardworking and faithful people in town who have kept us going all these years,” Todd said. Todd was a new bride when she joined the church in June 1962 and began directing the choirs later in the summer. Now, 53 years later, she continues to be a dedicated member and retains her choir director position. She has served under 13 of the 31 pastors in the church’s history. “I remember so many dear friends

Pink Ribbon Golf Classic and Mah Jongg tourney planned

By Kara Hallissey Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) To raise awareness and funds for breast cancer research, Pink Ribbon Classic events continue in Ocean City with the seventh annual Mah Jongg tournament on Thursday, Oct. 22, at the Golden Sands Resort on 109th Street, followed by the 19th annual Pink Ribbon Golf Classic on Friday, Oct. 23, at the Ocean City Golf Club in Berlin. For the Mah Jongg tournament, a $30 donation to the American Cancer Society guarantees a spot and it must be received by Saturday, Oct. 17. There will be no sign-ups at the day of the event. Registration will begin at 9 a.m. on Oct. 22, and play starts at 10 a.m. A continental breakfast and lunch will be provided by the Golden Sands Club, there will be a 50/50 raffle and door prizes including wine, beachthemed tableware, gift certificates from local merchants and businesses from the Rehoboth Beach and Lewes area in Delaware. In addition, the top three point earners will receive prizes. “This event is for all level Mah Jongg players in a less stressful atmosphere than many tournament settings, thus it’s open to a wide age group,” said Darlene Botts, event organizer. “Mah Jongg players enjoy the challenge of the game as well as meeting fellow Mah Jongg ‘junkies’ from Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Virginia and beyond at this event.” Last year, 116 players and four volunteers helped to raise more than $5,500 for the American Cancer Society. “This year, 132 seats are available and are filling quickly,” Botts said. Contact Botts at 410-409-7528 or

dbkatt47@verizon.net for registration information. The golf tournament costs $100 per person or $400 for a team of four and includes lunch, 18 holes of golf with a cart, dinner and an official tournament gift bag. In addition, there will be Chinese and silent auctions. “It’s a ladies-only golf tournament, fellowship and fun for a wonderful cause,” said Event Chair Nancy Dofflemyer. “Fight the fight for breast cancer.” Last year, 25 teams competed in the golf classic, raising $20,000 for the American Cancer Society. Dofflemyer said 15 teams were registered for the 2015 event as of last Thursday. The Pink Ribbon Classic is a scramble format tournament with three divisions based on handicap as well as one fun, non-competing division. There will be prizes including rounds of golf for the longest drive, closest-to-the-pin contest and division winners. Golfers are urged to register in advance, but can sign up the morning of the tournament at the Ocean City Golf Club in Berlin, starting at 11 a.m. Lunch catered by Sunset Grill and Skye Bar will be served at 11:30 a.m. before a noon shotgun start. After the tournament, a full dinner catered by 32 Palm, Mountaire Chicken and the Original Greene Turtle will be served. Hole sponsorships and dedication flags can be purchased in honor or memory of loved ones who have battled breast cancer. Register in advance by calling Dofflemyer at 410-251-6555 or email ewgnancy@aol.com. Or, sign up starting at 11 a.m. the day of the tournament, Friday, Oct. 23, at the Ocean City Golf Club in Berlin.

Making Strides 5K run and walk planned for Sun.

By Lisa Capitelli Managing Editor (Oct. 16, 2015) More than 1,000 people participated in Ocean City’s American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer 5K run and walk last year and about the same number or more are expected to take part in the fifth annual resort event this Sunday. “Every year, more and more people come out,” said Beverly Furst, chairwoman of the Ocean City run and walk. “Every year it’s been growing and growing and we couldn’t be more happier about that.” About 119 teams from various corporations, schools, churches and social civic groups registered for the 2014 event. The Ocean City Making Strides was ranked first in the state out of five races last year. The participation goal for the 2015 run and walk is 127 teams. As of Tuesday afternoon, 74 teams and 371 participants had registered for this year’s event, according to makingstrideswalk.org/oceancitymd. Runners who have already signed up can pick up their race packets today, Friday, from 4-7 p.m. or Saturday, from 9 a.m. until noon at Wockenfuss Candies, located between Hallmark and Bath & Body Works in

More than 800 people take a stroll on the Ocean City Boardwalk last year for the fourth annual Making Strides Against Breast Cancer 5K event. A 5K run kicked off just before the 2014 walk, where more than 150 runners participated. The run and walk are part of the Pink Ribbon Classic at the Beach, a series of local events to raise breast cancer awareness while garnering money for the American Cancer Society.

the White Marlin Mall, off Route 50 in West Ocean City. Anyone interested in competing in the 5K run can register during those times or Sunday, beginning at 7:30 a.m. in the inlet parking lot. The cost is $45, and entry fee includes a Tshirt.

There is no cost to take part in the walk. An opening ceremony will begin around 8 a.m. Sunday. The festivities will include guest speaker, Atlantic General Hospital oncologist, Dr. Roopa Gupta; cancer survivor and state Delegate Mary Beth Carozza will

say a few words and Pink Ribbon Classic at the Beach Series committee member and survivor, Sheryl Mitrecic, will sing. Ocean City Mayor Rick Meehan is slated to take the stage to welcome participants, and Sen. Jim Mathias See BREAST Page 54

Last year about 80 survivors attended. Survivors will be celebrated and come together for a photo before the race. “Making Strides is also a celebration of breast cancer survivorship. Many breast cancer survivors will participate in the walk and celebrate their own victories as well as lending hope and support to those currently battling the illness,” said Josette Castiglione, community manager, Making Strides Against Breast Cancer South Atlantic Division, American Cancer Society Inc. “New friendships will be made and tears of joy will be shed as so many gain strength and hope on this day. Who would want to miss that?” The 5K run will begin at 9 a.m. in the inlet lot near the Boardwalk. The

walk will start around 9:15 a.m. on the Boardwalk. Spectators and supporters are encouraged to attend. “In addition to a Making Strides store full of fun pink accessories to raise awareness while making a fashion statement, there will be plenty of people to cheer on,” Castiglione said. “Even if you can’t walk or run, be one of the smiling faces along the way clapping as a breast cancer survivor or two walk by, letting them know that you recognize and support their journey,” she continued. “Get involved now. There is still plenty of work left to end this disease. There will be plenty of ACS staff and volunteers at the Strides event. Ask one of them how you can help.” Light refreshments will be provided after the run and walk in the inlet lot. The run will be timed and medals will be awarded to the first-, secondand third-place male and female in each age division. The top overall male and female will win an award as well. The top fund raisers as of Oct. 18 will also be recognized after the run and walk. Participants will have until Dec. 31 to turn in their final donations. Free parking will be available in the inlet until noon. Passes will be distributed at the check-in tent at the inlet that morning. They will also be available at Wockenfuss Candies during packet pickup today and Saturday.

Goal to raise $350K through Pink Ribbon Classic events This is the fifth year the run and walk is an official Making Strides event. For 10 years before that, it was the Pink Ribbon Classic run and walk, one of a series of local events to raise breast cancer awareness while collecting money for the ACS. The Pink Ribbon Classic run and walk took place in the midtown area, from 61st Street to the Ocean City convention center on 40th Street and back, along Coastal Highway. Furst, organizer of the run and walk, inquired about the local activity becoming a Making Strides event since the money raised was going to the ACS anyway, but at that time they were only held in urban areas. When an ACS Making Strides small community model was created, Furst was approached about the Ocean City run and walk becoming a Making Strides event. “Since the beginning, the Making Strides event has grown exponentially because of more exposure with national branding and recognition,” Furst said. Funds raised through Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walks enable the American Cancer Society to finish the fight against breast cancer by investing in groundbreaking research, providing free, comprehensive information and support to those touched by breast cancer, and helping people reduce their breast cancer risk or find it early when it’s most treatable. The Ocean City event is one of more than 300 Making Strides walks across the country that raise more than $60 million for the ACS each year. “Uniting with others in the Making Strides walk gives us power to make a real difference in the fight to end breast cancer,” Furst said. “At the event, we celebrate survivorship and pay a meaningful tribute to those affected by the disease. Thanks to participants, the American Cancer Society is there for those who are currently dealing with a breast cancer diagnosis, those who may face a diagnosis in the future, and those who may avoid a diagnosis altogether because of education and risk reduction.” Since 1993, more than 11 million supporters have raised in excess of $685 million nationwide. In 2014 alone, 1.3 million walkers across the country raised $64 million to help finish the fight against breast cancer. The Ocean City Making Strides 5K run and walk is one of several events that make up the Pink Ribbon Classic at the Beach Series, an assortment of local activities to increase breast cancer awareness while raising money for the American Cancer Society. The 2015 Classic includes a ladiesonly fishing tournament; card, game and mahj party; tennis, mah jongg and golf tournaments, Jammin’ Out Cancer, Brews for Boobs, Making

Strides Against Breast Cancer 5K walk and run and “Pamper Yourself for Charity” raffle. Most of the events are held in October, which is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The Pink Ribbon Classic Series was started in 1996 by a group of volunteers. Last year, the series raised more than $335,000 for the American Cancer Society’s fight against breast cancer. The goal is $350,000 for 2015. Since its inception, the series has raised about $1.5 million for breast cancer research, awareness, programs and services. Some of the local programs and services in this area include free wigs for patients; the Look Good Feel Better program, which teaches patients how to cope with the cosmetic sideeffects of treatment; Reach to Recovery, a one-on-one support visitation program by trained breast cancer survivors for new patients and Road to Recovery, which gives patients transportation to and from cancer treatments. There is also the Hope Lodge, which provides lodging during treatment; Patient Navigator Program, which helps with the health care system; Cancer Survivors Network and a 24-hour-a-day cancer information center. Visit makingstrideswalk.org/ oceancitymd for more information. Find the Ocean City chapter on Facebook at www.facebook.com/makingstridesoc or at the Twitter handle @OCMDStrides. This year, 4,730 women in Maryland will be diagnosed with breast cancer. Across the country that number rises to 231,840, and an estimated 40,290 will die from the disease, according to the ACS. Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in women except for skin cancer, and is the second-leading cause of cancerous death in women. “Breast Cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women and something needs to be done to change these odds now. We are fighting through Making Strides Against Breast Cancer,” Castiglione said. “The American Cancer Society wants to make sure that nobody fighting breast cancer should ever have to walk alone. Money raised will help save lives through groundbreaking research and programs to promote early detection,” she continued. “Funds raised will help to provide patients and family caregivers with access to 24/7 critical information and support. When you support the American Cancer Society you’re providing a hand to hold for someone who desperately needs one.” For more information about the American Cancer Society, to get help, or to join the fight, visit cancer.org or call 1-800-227-2345.

O.C.Toberfest activities kick off this weekend

By Kara Hallissey Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) O.C.Toberfest activities kick off this weekend on the Boardwalk and beach at North Division Street. “Come enjoy all the excitement Ocean City has during the fall season and it’s free family fun,” said Meredith Herbert, event promoter. A Halloween beach maze with twists, turns, witches, scarecrows, ghouls, pirates, zombies and clowns will be on the beach for two weeks, she said. It is open this Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and next weekend, Oct. 24-25, during the same hours. “Every kid or kid at heart will receive a little prize when they find their way out of the maze while supplies last,” Herbert said. “Plus, there is a game to play as you walk through the maze. Throughout the event, winners will be selected to receive a gift card from various businesses.” On Saturday, a “Howl-O-ween” parade will head down the Boardwalk at 1 p.m. with prizes for best-dressed pets. Registration takes place at noon on the boards at North Division Street. More than 100 pets and their owners participated in the parade last See HOWL-O-WEEN Page 57

The “Great Pumpkin Race” will take place next Saturday, Oct. 24, on

Everyone is very creative.” Participants can design and construct their vehicle from a single pumpkin in any shape and size. Pumpkin race cars can be whole or carved; decorated for the occasion or right from the pumpkin patch. Each pumpkin must have two independent axels inserted through it with wheels

Hundreds of Corvettes are paraded along the Boardwalk last year during the 28th annual Free State Corvette Club event in Ocean City.

Corvette enthusiasts gather in OC Weekend activities include welcome party, Boardwalk parade, shows and rallyes

By Kara Hallissey Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) Hundreds of Corvette owners and enthusiasts will converge in Ocean City for the 29th annual Free State Corvette Club’s Corvette weekend, taking place at the inlet lot and Clarion Resort Fontainebleau Hotel on 101st Street. The event returns to the resort today, Friday, and Saturday with car shows, rallyes and a parade down the Boardwalk. The public is invited to attend the free activities and there will be events for paying participants. “This event is renown in the Corvette community as one of the largest private Corvette events on the East Coast with attendees previously coming from as far away as Canada, Florida and Arizona,” said Paul Chlan, event chairman. “The fellow-

ship at the event is contagious and providing a variety of events during the weekend addresses different individual interests.” Festivities kick off today at Corvette Weekend headquarters at the Clarion Hotel, where 14 vendors will sell jewelry, wine glasses, apparel, car products and services. “We also expect the National Corvette Museum to be represented and our sponsoring Chevy dealership will be on hand with technicians to provide car demos and answer questions,” Chlan said. Tonight, a welcome dance party kicks off in the Clarion’s upstairs Crystal Ballroom with live classic rock music from Over Time and a cash bar from 7-11 p.m. An all-youcan-eat Italian buffet dinner is available at an additional cost, though diners must sign up for the dinner in advance during registration. Corvette weekend continues in the inlet lot Saturday morning, where hundreds of cars will be on display,

three car shows will take place and four car rallyes will be going on simultaneously before an afternoon Corvette Boardwalk parade launches. The competitive car shows begin at 7:30 a.m., when Corvette owners prepare their cars to be judged in three shows: participants vote for their three favorite cars in all classes except their own in the Fun Show, 10 Spina Bifida guests will select a favorite Corvette in the second show and two celebrity guest judges choose the final competition winners. Each participating car will receive a free Corvette Weekend dash plaque, trophies will be awarded for each show and registration is limited to the first 300 paid Corvettes. During the same time, four rallyes will launch from the inlet simultaneously Saturday morning, taking drivers and their navigators on a journey in search of answers to questions, poker run cars and scrabble titles for various contests.

Boardwalk parade to include about 500 Corvettes Continued from Page 57 Each registered car will receive a dash plaque and is limited to the first 150 registered and paid Corvettes. An awards presentation will be held Saturday evening at the Clarion Resort for the car shows and rallyes. The highlight of Corvette Weekend is a parade with about 680 Corvettes traveling north up the Boardwalk from the inlet starting at 4 p.m. on Saturday. Cars will cruise uptown for a wrapup ceremony at the Clarion Saturday evening. Another all-you-can-eat dinner will be served for an additional fee with a cash bar before the awards ceremony begins at 8 p.m. Diners must sign up for the buffet in advance during registration. Corvette Weekend benefits several charities, including the Spina Bifida Association of Maryland. Over the years, the Ocean City show has helped organizers donate more than a half million dollars to charities with more than $600,000 going to children with the most common permanently disabling birth defect in the United States, Chlan said. Last year, 596 Corvettes were participated, and there are already 534 slated to attend this weekend, he

Corvettes are on display in the inlet parking lot during the 2014 Corvette Weekend in Ocean City.

added. Those who have not pre-registered for Corvette Weekend can visit the late registration table in the Clarion today from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. to sign up for the parade, shows and rallyes. Latecomers can still sign up for the parade at the inlet parking lot downtown from 7:30-10 a.m. or 1-4 p.m., tomorrow. Late registration costs $40 for adults and $8 for children under 12.

Addition costs apply for the car shows, rallyes and buffet dinners. The Boardwalk parade is included with registration. Participants do not need to be members of the FSCC or another club to take part in Corvette Weekend. For more information and prices, visit www.corvetteweekend.com. “We have a saying in the Corvette community that we come for the car

and stay for the people,” Chlan said. “The Corvette is part of the American heritage and many owners fell in love with them from a young age. Once they become part of the Corvette community, they realize that the owners are a special breed of Americans that celebrate that heritage together in fellowship. Corvette Weekend is the quintessential event to share that fellowship.”

By Kara Hallissey Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) To get a first glimpse of the prom court nominees, locals and visitors are encouraged to attend Believe in Tomorrow’s third annual kickoff party tonight at Hooters in West Ocean City. Prom Night is a major fundraiser for the nonprofit and festivities will begin at 6 Wayne Littleton p.m., when volunteers and members of the prom court will be on hand to answer questions and get to know attendees. “The kickoff party gets the court excited and thinking about ideas,” said Wayne Littleton, coordinator for the Believe in Tomorrow Children’s Foundation Beach Respite Housing Program. “I want this event to be fun and [the court to] become a part of our family.” There is no charge to attend the casual party, which will feature light fare and tunes by DJ BK. Tickets will also be available for Prom Night, a fundraiser slated for Saturday, Feb. 20. The past two years, Prom Night has been a sell-out success, raising more than $80,000 last year to help Believe in Tomorrow replace the deck on the 66th Street facility and continue pro-

viding critically ill children and their families a weeklong getaway to the beach and away from the everyday stresses of a child’s illness. “Whatever we make is fine, anything helps us and it’s always amazing to see prom court nominees put their heart and soul into raising as much money as they can,” Littleton said. “Last year, that competitive spirit took over, helping us raise $80,000, which was exceptional.” The court of 10 local prom king and queen nominees teamed up to host events and individually raised money as well. Jackie Siejack, of Chesapeake Employer’s Insurance Company, took home the crown, raising more than $17,000. Jason Gulshen, general manager at the Holiday Inn, won a tight race for prom king, raising more than $16,000. This year’s court includes prom king nominees David Neith, manager at Texas Roadhouse and former Believe In Tomorrow participant; Ray Tompkins, general manager of three restaurants for the Land and Sea Group out of Annapolis; local Chris Petito; Paul “Speedy” Tracey, liquor and wine consultant for OPICI Wine Distribution; and Mike Ciorrocco, of the Universal Mortgage and Finance Company.

SUPPORTERS Members of the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Pink Ribbon Classic at the Beach Series committee gather for a photo before the annual Jammin’ Out Cancer party, organized by Amy Katz, fourth from left, at Seacrets on 49th Street. Approximately 200 people attended the party, which is one of several events that make up the Pink Ribbon Classic at the Beach Series, an assortment of local activities to increase breast cancer awareness while raising money for the American Cancer Society. LISA CAPITELLI/OCEAN CITY TODAY

Meet king and queen candidates during prom party Continued from Page 58 Queen nominees include Chelsea Kurak, of Hooters; Shelley Leach, owner of Pete’s Cycles in Baltimore; Kelsey Hickey, president of the Believe In Tomorrow chapter of Phi Mu Sorority; Lindsay Meeks, of Delaware Elevator, and one spot is still open. “The kickoff party is a nice time for people to find out what we’re doing in a relaxed atmosphere,” Littleton said. “The most important part is everyone has a good time.” Attendees can meet the court and enjoy a night out at the Prom Night kickoff party tonight and purchase tickets for $30 each to the prom on Feb. 20. Prom Night will be similar to last year, with a buffet, happy hour drink specials, auctions and ballots cast to determine who will take home the prom king and queen titles. The event is capped at 180 attendees and the event has always sold out. “It gives people something to look forward to in the winter,” Littleton said. Organizers hope to replace the second floor deck of the 66th Street Believe in Tomorrow house with funds raised this year and there could be a possible addition of a fourth house in the near future. “I’ve met some wonderful people I would have never known [from Prom night events],” Littleton said. “It been neat, the crowd always has energy, it’s a fun evening and the whole experience has been great.” Stop by the kickoff party with no cover charge from 6-8 p.m., tonight, at Hooters in West Ocean City.

Local travelers raise $7,000 for Coastal Hospice CraZy LadyZ customers and staff take trip, donate funds

By Brian Gilliland Staff Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) Many local groups and organizations raise money for causes, but not many of them do it by taking people on vacation. Almost every year for the past six years, Jan Patterson, an owner of the CraZy LadyZ clothing stores in Ocean City and Ocean View, Del., has organized a trip and picked a cause and done just that. This year, the cause is Coastal Hospice, and the check for the donated funds, this year about $7,000, will be presented to the end-of-life care facility next week at an event at Alexâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Italian Restaurant in West Ocean City, Patterson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just a small shop but we like to do things in a big way,â&#x20AC;? Patterson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve grown every year. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trip had almost 100 participants.â&#x20AC;? Notably, and unsurprisingly since the participants are drawn from the shopsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; clientele, most travelers are women. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a ladies store and the original idea was for an all-girls trip,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But everyone loved the concept and â&#x20AC;&#x201D; beautifully enough â&#x20AC;&#x201D; we had 10 wonderful men join us this year.â&#x20AC;? The group traveled to the Mayan Riviera in Mexico this year, and stayed in the all-inclusive Now Sapphire Riviera Cancun Resort. The trip was booked through CraZy LadyZ employee and travel agent Cookie Breitenbach, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our first two trips were cruises and we found that too confining. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re also price conscious because our group is made up of a lot of retirees, but we like to spread out. If someone wants to go shopping or exploring, it has to be in a place where itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safe to do so,â&#x20AC;? Patterson said. Even the late date â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the vacationers just recently returned â&#x20AC;&#x201D; was intentional. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We leave when the schools, colleges and universities reopen,â&#x20AC;? she said. Early each year, Patterson posts a signup sheet in the stores to gauge interest. Then a destination, donation and charity are identified. Those still on the list as of July 1 are booked to go. Each traveler makes a set donation, and the CraZy LadyZ stores and Breitenbach contribute. Previous beneficiaries include Worcester GOLD, Women Supporting Women and the American Cancer Society.

About 100 customers, employees and friends of the CraZy LadyZ stores in Ocean City and Ocean View Del., traveled together to the Mayan Riviera in Mexico this year as part of a travel/donation package offered by the owners of the clothing shop. The travelers raised about $7,000 for Coastal Hospice, which will be presented during an event at Alexâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Italian Restaurant in West Ocean City next week.

In martial arts, the top four competitors in each category will receive awards. In jiu-jitsu the top three will be presented awards, and in the kids division, gold, silver and bronze medals will be presented.

Several local businesses will offer a 15 percent discount to participants for the weekend. “We’ve added bicycles to the event this year,” said event organizer Nancy Howard. “Bicycles were suggested and we thought why not — the more the merrier. Of course the bicycles need to be decorated and participants need to register. And we’ve added a category for best decorated bicycle and rider.” There is a $25 fee for non-vintage li-

cense plate participants and those vehicles and bicycles must be decorated. There is no fee for those with an Ocean City ‘vintage’ license plate (these are not vintage car tags but the special Ocean City plate). Proof of insurance is required for all participants.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Incorporate cheese into scalloped potato dish

By Deborah Lee Walker Contributing Writer (Oct. 16, 2015) The brilliance of the sun is a reflection of the universe; passing clouds remind me things can change at any given moment. The frolicking ocean is making its presence known; respect awaits the shoreline most definitely. The salt residue blankets the path before me; clarity in its purist state is a rarity. A seagull hovers above; the majestic wings of freedom lure me to a place and time of contentment. Human nature has a tendency to jump forward, but staying in the moment preserves better judgment. Reason cannot always explain current considerations; the idea of scalloped potatoes intrigues me. The ebb tide of reality focuses my thoughts between the flow of tradition

and the possibility of new options. Taking simple recipes and elevating them to new heights has always been my point of view. I pride myself on distinction; this particular challenge is no exception. I tie my tennis shoes together and drape them over my shoulder; the soft sand nestled under my feet is quite comforting. Seashells glitter as history is to be. Do not be fooled by the appearance of simplicity; many variables can lead a cook to complete indecision. The trinity of mesmerization is before me; land, sea and the sky sooth my soul and allow harmony to bridge the border of persistence. Choosing

the right potato is crucial when attempting the art of scalloped potatoes. Buttery, golden potatoes release just enough starch for a creamy sauce and holds the shape for greater texture. Using a mandolin and slicing the potatoes to a one-eighth inch thickness ensures the potatoes cook evenly. The glittery scenery is an endless fascination. There is a sense of serenity knowing choices are an underlying aura that beseeches opportunity. Attention to detail has me anticipating the fruits of my labor. As I head back to my kitchen of delight, I must remember to cover the scalloped potatoes during the cooking process. Steaming stimulates doneness, it also promotes infusion of flavors. Before I make the transition from

paradise to certainty, I turn around once more to absorb the wondrous beauty of Mother Nature. A chef cannot embrace progression if clutter and confusion has emulsified its way into the presence of realism. I must make this outing more often, cookery and peace of mind go hand in hand. Fate is not by chance, my love for food guides me to purpose intended. I cross the highway and head home. Attention to detail is a must and I make one more mental note before I embarking on luscious scalloped potatoes. Allowing the potatoes to rest after cooking is very important and quite often overlooked. This seemingly insignificant step reinstates the creaminess of the dish and See DISH Page 69

Competitions for adults and youth during OC Classics Continued from Page 62 will be a grand championship in martial arts for top black belts in sparring, forms and weapons. Each grand championship will take home $200. In jiu-jitsu, a female and male absolute division kick-down champion will each receive $200. All children 12 years and younger will take home an award, and the most supportive school at the event will receive cash prizes. “Currently, the top four schools have more than 28 competitors,” Waters said. The age divisions begin at 4 years old and go all the way up to adults in their 60s, he added. The competition has grown each year with more than 150 competitors and more than 300 spectators coming out in 2014. “It’s a great day for a martial arts fan or enthusiast,” Waters said. “We have competitors who come from all over the Mid-Atlantic, including New York, New Jersey, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland.” More than 80 people have already registered for the competition. “It’s a great way to develop confidence and it takes focus to perform in front of judges,” Waters said. “It’s incredible to see a 5-year-old showing such intensity and a great opportunity for kids to be awarded for their talent against their peers.” Day-of-registration will begin at 7:30 a.m. and the competitions are scheduled to start at 10 a.m. and continue into the evening. The on-site registration fee is $65 for the competitor’s first event and an additional $10 per category. There is a $15 admission for tournament spectators and children under 5 get in free.

Starting February of last year, Mooney landed in the Caribbean at St. Maarten, then traveled to Haiti but not before being attacked by pirates who damaged his boat. After repairs, Mooney went on to Miami followed by a stop in North Carolina for more repairs from hitting a cypress stump. After a rest and repairs, Mooney was back rowing on the inland water way, stopping for another breather in Ocean City where he was befriended by many people while waiting for clear sailing up to the finish of his trip at the Brooklyn Bridge and his Brooklyn home.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT WE HAVE

Dish time consuming, but well worth effort, Walker says Continued from Page 65 a must for success. Before conclusion can manifest itself, I must make one more point. Typically, scalloped potatoes do not include cheese. But this addition takes the dish to new heights. Creamy and nutty Gruyére adds savoriness without overshadowing the other ingredients. Asiago’s fruity, slightly sharp cheese supports dimension of depth. Mozzarella’s distinctive texture and Parmigiano-Reggiano’s richness are the final touches to a bouquet of complexity. Scalloped potatoes are a favorite that must be made from scratch. Rekindling this classic recipe combines comfort food with a sophisticated twist. Four-cheese scalloped potatoes is time consuming, but well worth the effort. Enjoy! Four-Cheese Scalloped Potatoes Ingredients 2 teaspoons unsalted butter, plus extra for greasing the pan 2 tablespoons good quality extra virgin olive oil 3 large sweet onions 8 medium Yukon gold potatoes 2 cloves garlic, minced 1/2 cup chicken stock 2 cups heavy cream 4 teaspoons all-purpose flour 1/3 cup Gruyere cheese, shredded 1/3 cup Asiago cheese, shredded 1/3 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded 3 bay leaves 1 teaspoon dried thyme 1 teaspoon Herbs de province 2/3 teaspoon crushed rosemary 2/3 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg kosher salt to taste 1/2 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

1 cup panko bread crumbs 1 ½ teaspoons coarse black pepper 1. Peel potatoes, then slice potatoes thinly on a mandolin. Place sliced potatoes in a large bowl and cover with cold water. 2. Peel onions and slice thinly on a mandolin. 3. Heat olive oil and butter over medium high heat in a thick-bottomed sauté pan. Add sliced onions and cook until golden brown, about 15 minutes. 4. Just before the onions start to turn brown, add garlic and continue cooking until onions caramelize. Set aside. 5. In a medium sauce pan, combine chicken stock, cream, flour and bay leaves over medium-high heat until it thickens. 6. Remove cream mixture from heat and add Gruyere, Asiago, mozzarella, thyme, Herbs de province, rosemary, nutmeg and salt. Discard bay leaves. 7. Butter 9 x 13 casserole dish lightly. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. 8. In a large bole, combine seasoned cream mixture, potatoes and caramelized onions. 9. Place potato mixture in casserole dish, cover and bake for 40 minutes. 10. In the meantime, combine Parmigiano-Reggiano, panko and pepper in a small bowl. 11. Remove potatoes from oven after 40 minutes. Sprinkle panko mixture evenly over the scalloped potatoes. Bake for another 10 minutes uncovered. 12. Remove from oven and allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving. Serves 6 Secret Ingredient - Fear. “Fear knocked on the door. Faith answered.

Commentary

Generosity marks life in coastal area

If there is one thing on which everyone might agree in this area it is that this is, despite what may be said elsewhere, one of the most generous places per capita in the country. Over the course of an annual fundraising year, there is no argument that residents and businesses in Ocean City, Berlin, Ocean Pines and all places between, contribute millions in cash and in-kind services to local charities. Someone has a medical problem? A fundraiser is quickly established and, just as quickly, succeeds. Someone needs assistance getting through the winter or even a place to say when he or she has nowhere to go? There are charities for both. And the local benefits to raise money for breast cancer research and to provide resources for its victims? They occupy one of the premiere positions in the hearts and minds of many. At the same time, well-established organizations such as the Children’s House, Worcester County Gold, Diakonia and numerous others find aid in the warm financial embrace of the coastal community. Although those unfortunate enough to live elsewhere might criticize the resort area as being too money-oriented, that’s because they don’t know much about what really happens here when they return to their routines back home. Yes, many businesses here do make good money – weather, economy and assorted other variables permitting – but the people who own, operate and work for these enterprises also do right by those who have suffered misfortune. Another way to put it would be to say coastal area residents work hard and give easily. It is true that the requests for donations this time of year can approach what might be considered overwhelming, as organizations gear up when the season winds down. Still, the giving culture on the coast recognizes that no matter how overwhelming the flood of requests might seem at times, it’s nothing as compared to the needs of those who benefit from our generosity.

Letters to the editor Events, policies need refresh

Dear Mayor & City Council, I agree with you that the tourist like the free special events the city puts on every week for the tourists. They should continue next summer. I heard from businesses this was their best summer in a long time. Look at all the new hotels that are being built. Tourism is booming in OC. The tourists also come to see the free shows that the boardwalk entertainers put on. You people keep cracking down on them and are trying to run them out of town. They should not have to camp out over night at city hall to get a spot on the Boardwalk. They should not have to do this every week. When they come to town in May, have them register for the summer. Give them a number. Have them sign a sheet that says what the rules are. All spots should be the same (10’ L x 5’ W). When the season starts in May they start on their numbered spot and move one spot north each day to Ninth Street. Then they start over at the southern-most spot and move north till the end of September. Then they can set up anywhere they want on the Boardwalk. They should be able to use a beach umbrella to stay out of the sun. Their spot should be able to be vacant for a half hour

to go get something to eat. Let’s welcome these people to town they are entertaining our tourists for free. I also agree Bob’s events are stale and boring and must go, especially his boring sand sculpture event. All of it was advertising for businesses. Did you see the photos on the Internet of the sand sculpture contest that Virginia Beach had this past weekend? We need to have a 10-day sand sculpture contest like this and give out prize money for the best sand sculptures. Our special events directory can put on this event for the city. Bob’s lazer show is boring and must go. It only lasts eight minutes and he runs the same show three times a night. The different shows need to be mixed up more with more music and lasers. The shows should last 15 minutes. It does not cost a red cent more to put on a 15-minute show. He needs to spend more than $100 on his boring fireworks. Have you seen those laser shows in Las Vegas and Atlantic City? We can have a much better show. We could build a big sandcastle on the beach and it blows its top like a volcano every 30 minutes. The city should ask the owner of the pier to outline the side of the pier in white light from May to New Year’s. Let’s

have an ice sculpture contest at Winterfest. Put out a bid. OC is looking for special events entertainment for the summer of 2016. Do not be in a rush to sign another contract with Bob for special events. Let’s see what other people have to offer Ocean City. George Leukel Ocean City

Gifts for overseas soldiers wanted

Editor, Welcome in the month of October, when volunteers will be collecting holiday gifts for our soldiers overseas. The collection was started eight years ago by my husband Carl, who served in China, Burma and India in World War II. He remembered how many of the small comforts of home they had to be without. Personal products not received from home were very difficult to get. The worst part was trying to get toilet paper and it worried Carl, who wanted to help. In November, 2003 Carl organized “Holiday Gifts for Our Soldiers,” placing black containers at Libraries and veteran’s posts around our area. During the first collection Linda Dearing, owner of Copy Central, volunteered to help. Realizing Carl’s cost were high, she Continued on Page 86

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Continued from Page 85 offered to package and box all the items we collected and mailed. Carl realized this program became bigger every year, as well as very successful and costly. In 2006, Carl contacted the American Legion Post 166 in Ocean City, asking for help with Holiday Gifts for our Soldier’s Overseas. Their continuing support is greatly appreciated. Starting Thursday, Oct. 1, black containers will be placed at the libraries in Ocean Pines, Berlin and Ocean City and will also be placed at the Ocean Pines Community Center, American Legion Post 166 in Ocean City and the VFW in Ocean City. Some suggested items are powdered drinks like Crystal Lght, tea, coffee and Gatorade, also chewing gum, canned fruits and nuts, sunglasses, suntan lotion, Slim Jims, beef jerky, board games, playing cards, paperback books, cotton socks, daily toiletries for men and women, toilet tissues, dark hand towels, washcloths and foot powder. Please no liquids or perishable items such as cookies. This ongoing successful program lets our heroes, who serve our country, receive something from home and know that we support them. Although we have to pay for all the shipping cost, any donations will be appreciated. Make checks payable to “Holiday Gifts for our Soldiers,” and mail to Star Charities, c/o Anna Foultz, 127 High Sheriff Trail, Ocean Pines, Md. 21811.

The containers will be collected on Nov. 30. For more information, call Teresa Travatello, director of marketing and public relations, at 410-641-7717, ext. 3006, or Anna Foultz, president of Star Charities, at 410-641-7667. Anna Foultz Ocean Pines

Emergency text alert system praised

Editor, With storm Joaquin now past us and a memory, I wanted to express my thanks to the Town of Ocean City for publicizing in advance, about the Town’s emergency texting system. I am a resident of Ocean City and although I personally have been signed up to receive these text messages for a few years now, many of my out-of-town neighbors and friends who own property in my building had not been signed up until last week. My neighbors and friends both from out of town and locally, including myself, all collectively feel that the town did an excellent job in providing the public the best and up-to-date information in all of the 10 texts in total that had been generated over the course of a few day’s time. I will do my part and continue to spread the word onto others about this very good service that is offered from the Town of Ocean City. Doug Antos Ocean City

PUBLIC EYE

Rites of passé

By Stewart Dobson Editor/Publisher Finally, they really are reading it for the articles. That would be the people who buy Playboy magazine, the one-time premier sex education resource of 15year-old boys across the country, following its decision to stop publishing photos of naked women. Actually, they used the word “nude” instead of “naked,” which also translates to “nekkid,” depending on how old you are. I mean, how many 15-year-olds back in the day ever said “nude” anything? “Hey, Timmy, is that a nekkid lady magazine?” “Well no, actually, it’s a compendium of well-written articles by some of the nation’s most notable authors, occasionally risqué cartoons, and interspersed with photographs of tastefully posed nudes.” “Yeah, great. Let’s see the nekkid ladies.” Not that anyone cares anymore, the Internet having corralled the nekkid lady business years ago for all young males whose parents had yet to figure out how to block certain sites. “I don’t know much about computer screen pop-ups, Timmy, but I’m pretty sure the ‘Big Bertha’ I saw was not a golf club.”

OCTOBER 16, 2015

There was a time, of course, when possession of a Playboy was a very, very big deal. When I was a kid, we had multiple tree forts in an oak in the nearby woods, but no matter how much I might have tried to dress mine up – there’s only so much you can do with a used furniture crate, with or without crown molding – everyone began to gather in Willie’s tree fort instead, sorry construction standards notwithstanding. “Whaaaat’s goooiiiing ooooon uuuuup theeeeeere?” I finally demanded. “Aaaa braaaaaaand neeeeeew 1962 Playbooooyyyyy,” one of the occupants yelled back down. All of which proved to me for the first time that friendship counts for nothing when it comes to nekkid ladies. Fast Willie’s good fortune did not last long, however, as few days later the same people who had abandoned me began to collect near my place instead. “So, now what’s going on?” “Willie’s grounded for swiping his old man’s Playboy.” But just as I was beginning to renew acquaintances with my former friends, Willie showed up. “Hey, guys,” he said, “any of you ever really take a good look at National Geographic?”
