Thursday after the ordinance was passed. However, Ashley said, he had not yet received the usual notice that the ordinance had been signed and registered, and thus called City Hall the next day to confirm that the new parking ordinance was a done deal. After contacting the office of the city solicitor, he discovered that the law had not been signed. The Cale-brand ticket meter was immediately covered with the usual canvas bag, and the new signage re-

(June 14, 2013) It seemed like a rough, unruly weekend in Ocean City, but according to police, it might have been par for the course in June. “We’re not saying it’s worse,” said Public Information Officer Mike Levy of the Ocean City Police Department on Tuesday. “But we’re trying to determine the cause. We’re trying to determine if it’s just part of a larger problem or if it is just the consequence of particular demographics of people who visited us this weekend.” Levy would not venture a guess as to whether most of the problems were caused by recent high school graduates celebrating Senior Week or people attending a particular event in the resort. “It would be irresponsible of us to try to label it as one particular thing when the information we’re analyzing may say something else,” he said. June is typically the busiest month of the year for police. Calls for service can increase from about 4,000 calls per month in earlier months to about 17,000 calls for service in June. In May 2011, police had about 7,000 calls for service. In June 2011, they had about 14,000 calls for service. In May 2012, they had about 7,500 calls for service and that number jumped to about 16,000 in June 2012. “June is the heaviest time period,” Levy said. Although some people think visitors have been more unruly this June and especially last weekend, “perception is not

Meehan yet to sign new parking ordinance Controversial additions to be inactive until approved, vetoed, or passed by default ZACK HOOPES ■ Staff Writer (June 14, 2013) Like some sort of ghostly lollipops, the signs proclaiming City Hall’s new parking fees have remained wrapped in black plastic trash bags this week, as Mayor Rick Meehan

has not yet signed into law the city’s controversial ordinance for additional paid parking. “I haven’t made up my mind yet,” Meehan said this week in regards to what his action will be. “I’ve gotten a lot of feedback.” The concealment of the city’s new parking apparatus is apparently the result of a complaint received by Councilman Brent Ashley, who said at this week’s City Council meeting that he had been alerted that paid parking was in effect the

Meters and signage to remain covered until ordinance finalized Philadelphia Avenue below the Route 50 bridge. Meters would also go into the municipal lots at City Hall and the 65th Street Public Safety Building. Metering of the latter two lots has caused little disturbance, but there has been considerable public outcry about the metering of street parking, especially from adjacent property owners who claim the move will be counterproductive. The selected streets were initially identified by the city as “low-hanging fruit” where paid parking could be implemented with the least impact on the neighborhood’s street usage due to what is believed to be a heavy rotation of non-overnight or commercial visitors. But residents and business owners have objected to the town’s attempt to reap more revenue from day-vacationers, as has been the rationale. They also claim that the limited selection of streets was arbitrary, and had more to do with politics than revenue. The parking additions are expected to bring an extra $150,000 to the city’s coffers. Once the ordinance goes into effect – either with or without Meehan’s approval - opponents would have three days to notify the city that they plan to petition to ordinance to referendum. After the language of the petition is approved by the City Solicitor, opponents would have 40 days to collect the signatures of 40 percent of the number of voters who participated in the last municipal election. Given that 3,064 people voted in the November 2012 city contest, a petition would require 1,226 voters in order to stay the ordinance until it could be put to referendum in the next election, or in a special election.

ceived their post-industrial prophylactics. City Clerk Kelly Allmond said she had begun parking collection last Thursday with the expectation that the ordinance had been finalized. “When the council made the final vote, we took that as the go-ahead,” Allmond said, noting that the veto power is rarely used. Ashley requested at this week’s council meeting that any money collected in the span between when the meter was turned on Thursday and when it was bagged Friday be returned to the payers. “It looks like we collected a total of $4.50 from two users,” Allmond said this week. “Unfortunately, I don’t know that there’s any way to figure out who they were and give it back.” Under the city’s charter, Meehan has until June 19 to make his decision. Under section 410, the Mayor has 15 days to return a passed ordinance to the City Clerk, including the date on which it is approved by council and the date on which the Mayor’s decision is returned, but excluding Sundays. The ordinance was passed by a 5-to-2 vote of council on June 3. If Meehan were to simply not return the ordinance within the time limit, it would become law – the city has no provision for what is known at the federal level as a ‘pocket veto.’ In order to prevent the law, Meehan would have to actively veto the ordinance within 15 days. The veto could subsequently be overridden only with a six-vote majority of council. Under the ordinance, the city would add Cale machines to the ocean block of 146th and 49th Streets, the stretch of 131st Street between Coastal Highway and Sinepuxent Avenue, and the west side of

always reality,� Levy said. Similar events, such as assaults and robberies, occurred last June, but the number of firearms recovered this June has decreased. During 2012, from June 1-11, police recovered 12 firearms. During the same period this year, they recovered seven. On Saturday night on the Boardwalk, police recovered a handgun that had been reported stolen from Clayton County, Ga. Members of the Ocean City Police Department Narcotics Unit and the Criminal Enforcement Team of the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office were attempting to make undercover drug buys on the boards. During the drug enforcement effort, they bought marijuana from Loomis Boakai Zayzay, 19, of Laurel, at about 10:30 p.m. After arresting Zayzay, police found a semi-automatic handgun in his possession. They charged him with possession of marijuana with the intent to distribute it, distribution of marijuana, possession of marijuana, possession of a firearm during a drug trafficking crime, possession of a handgun and theft of less than $1,000. After being seen by a court commissioner at District Court in Ocean City, Zayzay was held in the county jail without bond. On the Boardwalk at Fifth Street at about 1 a.m. Sunday, Bike Patrol officers saw two men pushing and arguing with one another, causing a crowd to gather and watch. As officers tried to separate the two men, one of them, Joseph Tyrice Cromartie, became combative and reportedly assaulted them. One of the officers used his Taser to subdue Cromartie, who was eventually arrested. By that time, the large crowd that had gathered at the scene had become disor-

derly and some people were making threatening statements to the officers. Additional law enforcement officers, including members of the Mounted Patrol, K-9 Unit, Worcester County Sheriff’s Office and Maryland State Police, responded to the scene to disperse the crowd and restore order. Adhering to the police department’s policy, officers had Cromartie taken to Atlantic General Hospital by paramedics for examination as a result of the use of the Taser. Soon afterward, he was released to police, who charged him with resisting arrest, failure to obey a lawful order of a law enforcement officer, disorderly conduct and two counts of second-degree assault. After being seen by a court commissioner, he was released on his own recognizance. A visitor from Washington, D.C., was stabbed on the Boardwalk in front of the Stowaway Grand Hotel early Sunday morning. According to Ocean City police, the victim had been one of approximately 30 people fighting on the Boardwalk at about 3:35 a.m. The victim, whose name is not being released, was stabbed repeatedly then helped into the hotel by unidentified citizens. Paramedics treated the injured man before taking him to Peninsula Regional Medical Center for further treatment. On Monday, he was reported to be in stable condition. Personnel from the Ocean City Police Department Forensic Services Unit processed the crime scene for evidence and detectives are continuing to investigation this incident. Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call Dfc. David Whitmer at the police department’s Criminal Investigation Division at 410-530-5390.

(June 14, 2013) Four men were charged June 10 with the armed robbery of two people walking along 12th Street early Friday morning. The victims told police they were robbed at gunpoint. After a broadcast of the description of the suspects and their vehicle, police saw and stopped the vehicle on 12th Street. The victims identified the men as the ones who had robbed them. Police recovered the stolen items, two wallets containing approximately $500 and two iPhones, from the vehicle. They also located the handgun they believed was used during the robbery. A check of the gun’s serial number revealed it had been reported stolen in Charlotte, N.C. The suspected armed robbers were

identified as Dominique La Paul Pratt, 20, Derrell Levon Price, 19, and Darien Xavier Britton, 18, all of Waldorf, and John Riley, 23, of Washington, D.C. Britton was allegedly the group’s driver. Pratt and Prince were charged with use of a firearm during the commission of a violent crime and two counts each of armed robbery and first-degree assault. Riley was charged with second-degree assault, possession of a dangerous weapon with the intent to injure and two counts of armed robbery. Britton was charged with two counts of armed robbery and transportation of a handgun. Charges for the stolen handgun are pending. After being seen by a court commissioner at District Court in Ocean City, the four suspects were taken to the county jail in Snow Hill where they were held on $500,000 bond.

Politicians and politics weigh in on recent wave of ill-behavior ZACK HOOPES ■Staff Writer (June 14, 2013) Today it’s news – tomorrow, it’s history. And by the day after that, it’s politics. Following the apparent crime wave of the past weekend, some city officials have already implied that the OC Car & Truck Show was at least a partial culprit for the upswing in illicit behavior, a notion that has clear political implications and has already become a matter of public dispute. With multiple robberies, weapons violations, large-scale fights – including one in which police were allegedly almost overrun by the crowd – as well as a stabbing, the past several days of activity in the resort have generated considerable public outcry and concern that the tenor of the town, and particularly the Boardwalk, is moving in the wrong direction. “I’m not sure [what caused it], but it was an interesting weekend, I’ll say that,� Council Secretary Mary Knight said at this week’s Tourism Commission meeting. “I think we’ll be getting some data soon on the cost of our police versus the benefit of the car show.� Convention Center Director Larry Noccolino said at the meeting that the show’s attendance was up 12 percent, but that no problems were reported. In a very public debate on a local media page – the text of which was sub-

sequently removed from the web – Councilmen Doug Cymek and Joe Mitrecic argued against allegations by former councilman and frequent political critic Joe Hall that the city’s leadership was culpable for over-marketing the resort. “He tried to blame the council, which is ridiculous,� Mitrecic said. “All I said was, ‘Hey, maybe Joe is trying to blame the council instead of the possibility of it being the promoter of the car show, who booked Fat Joe.’� The Saturday night musical entertainment for the OC Car & Truck Show – rapper Fat Joe – was “not someone who represents a family image,� Mitrecic said. “It was basically a rap star who may or may not have brought in [a bad crowd],� Mitrecic said. “I don’t know.� The promoter and organizer of the car show, Spark Productions and its proprietor Brad Hoffman, has been the subject of the city’s winds of political change before. After receiving support from the town last year for the OC Experience trade show project, the company was almost cut from the deal some months later following a changing of the guard on City Council. “I do know Mr. Hall and the promoter of the car show are very good friends,� Mitrecic said. “Was he trying to push the blame or suspicion off on someone else because he’s close with Mr. Hoffman?� “The facts are that we had no issues, and any other issues around town cannot be ar-

bitrarily related to my event,� Hoffman said. “We had no problems security-wise, no issues with the event at all.� “We and the convention center staff work very hard to put on a good, safe, clean show,� he said. Attendance at the Fat Joe concert was roughly 600 people, Hoffman said. However, Mitrecic said that he was not trying to pin the weekend’s crime entirely on the car show, only to point out the potential ulterior motive involved. “Everybody is looking for a reason or something to blame [the problems] on,� he said. “I don’t have that. I’m not looking to pin it on the council or the car show or anyone else.� Cymek also said he did not want to single out the car show. “It doesn’t make any difference if it was the car show or the boat show or some

other large event, it just wasn’t enough people to cover all the bases,� he said. “I think any time you pack that many people, for whatever reason, into one town, you’re going to have issues. You just need to have the support in place to make sure you can deal with those issues.� Mayor Rick Meehan said he definitely noticed a “more urban type of crowd� over the past weekend. “I think it was isolated,� he said. “It was uncharacteristic of the crowd we typically have.� At the same time, Councilman Brent Ashley continued to make claims similar to those allegedly made by Hall. “We push all this marketing in innercity Baltimore, Washington, D.C., and Philadelphia, to the tune of $5 million,� Ashley said. “You’re getting what you ask for.�

Prom rumor floods gallery with students in search of ‘secret room’ Harford County deejay’s remarks send graduates to roof of Kroart’s store ZACK HOOPES ■ Staff Writer (June 14, 2013) In a bizarre testament to the power of social media, or the naiveté of Ocean City’s high school-age visitors – probably both, actually – an apparent off-hand remark at a Harford County high school dance has caused the Boardwalk’s legendary Ocean Gallery to be flooded with confused visitors. “My philosophy is that something happens here every weekend that didn’t happen the weekend before,” said Ocean Gallery owner Joe Kroart. “I couldn’t have made up a story like this.”According to Kroart, passers-by on the Boardwalk this past Saturday alerted him to the fact that several young men were on the roof of his gallery, waving and yelling to pedestrians. The only way to access the roof would have been to go through the emergency exit at the back of the store and climb the fire escape, Kroart said, leaving him at a loss as to why the youths would’ve ended up on the roof in the first place. When he confronted them, and threatened to call the police, the teenagers tried See SOCIAL on Page 7A

to flee, Kroart said. But after several minutes of conversation, the young men admitted that they had found their way to the roof after searching for a “secret room” in the gallery. Unbeknownst to Kroart, the deejay at the Bel Air Senior High School prom had made a facetious announcement to the effect that prospective senior-weekers in Ocean City should be on the lookout for a “secret room” in the landmark art gallery. “I’m sure it was done as a spur-of-themoment, fun kind of thing without any consideration as to the possible implications,” Kroart said. “They had been scavenging everywhere for this ‘secret room.’” Kroart did not, in the end, call the police. “I made the judgment, based on the story, that these were nice kids, they were just a little hyped-up,” he said. What happened over the next several days reinforced this. Group after group of high school students would snoop around the shop, and when asked would respond that they were, in fact, from Bel Air. In some cases, they had actually been at the prom. But in many more, Kroart said, they had seen some kind of Facebook, Twitter, or other social media post that referenced the alleged secret room.

“Apparently it somehow became a thing with them,” Kroart said. “We’ve had people coming in for days looking for a secret room. The kids they know that are still at the high school know about the deal, too.” “I used to think it took a few days for this sort of thing to get around,” Kroart said. “It actually takes hours…it’s exponential, when the story goes it really goes.” To get ahead of the curve, Kroart has posted signs in his store dispelling the rumor. But one of the signs also tells students that the store “has elves.” “It’s not entirely untrue. The truth is that there has been a rumor, for years, that there are little elves in this gallery,” Kroart said. “It’s something to sate their curiosity. Something to give them a little taste of a secret so that they come back.” Kroart said he harbors no ill will towards the students or the deejay in question. “I think it’s a good story, a fun story of how you can generate something from one announcement that reaches so many kids,” he said. “99 percent of these kids are excellent. It’s a much smaller and slightly older crowd that causes problems on the Boardwalk.”

Hearing held July 15 for bus cuts (June 14, 2013) Proposed eliminations of Coastal Highway bus service in off-season will be discussed at a public hearing on Monday, July 15, at 6 p.m. at City Hall in the first floor Council Chambers. The hearing is to solicit public comment on a proposal to eliminate fixedroute bus service from approximately Nov. 1 through March 31, Monday

through Thursday, 12-6 a.m. Topics to be covered at the hearing are the elimination of the service in the winter, the impacts on patrons and the financial impacts and savings.

(June 14, 2013) Some area businesses are pressing the city to do more with its shopping and dining listings on ococean.com, including the possibility of offering advertising on the city-owned website. Park Place Jewelers owner Todd Ferrante told the city’s Tourism Commission this week that the city’s tourism page “didn’t paint a fair picture of what we have to offer.” Ferrante suggested that the city expand the listing area for restaurants and retail shops on a Web site that is otherwise lodging-centric and focuses on directing visitors to book their accommodations with resort hotel and condo owners. He also suggested that the city offer the opportunity to purchase advertising, or pay for an expanded listing, on the site. Ococean.com, the city’s official tourism website, is municipally-owned

Local golf promoter Tom Perlozzo also suggested that the city could issue some sort of e-newsletter or digital magazine via the site, which would provide further opportunities for expanded listings and advertising, as Perlozzo’s own company does via Global Golfer magazine. “It would be a way to increase advertising and membership [for the CVB],” Perlozzo said. However, Ocean City Hotel-MotelRestaurant Association Director Susan Jones said she would prefer not to see banner ads on the site. “Looking at other resorts, none of their official sites have ads,” Jones said. “I personally would not want to see ococean.com cluttered up.” “We spend $5 million in advertising to direct people to the site, and then they see banners all over the place,” agreed Councilman and commission member Dennis Dare.

OCFD to get new vehicle, says recent purchase will fit in HQ Apparatus will combine engine and tanker as part of dept.’s long-term plan ZACK HOOPES ■ Staff Writer (June 14, 2013) The city approved a $628,135 allocation this week to take the next step in the Ocean City Fire Department’s equipment replacement plan, which will replace three aging pieces of equipment with a single, updated unit. “This represents the third step in our efforts for fleet consolidation and consistency,” OCFD Chief Chris Larmore said. “The effort to combine an engine and tanker will improve service to both Ocean City and West Ocean City.” The vehicle is a ‘Predator’ model fire engine/tanker, built by KME and distributed through Antietam Fire Apparatus. Not only will the new vehicle serve as a direct replacement for the department’s Engine 702, it will also take on the roles of Tanker 720 and Air & Light 722, both of which serve as support at large fires or accident scenes. The replacement is part of a longterm plan, spanning through 2031, developed by the OCFD to manage its need for new, but expensive, fire apparatus. Under the plan, the OCFD – which oversees both the Ocean City Vol-

unteer Fire Company as well as the city’s paid fire corps – contributes $312,000 annual toward a vehicle fund. Private donations via the OCVFC account for $100,000 of it, and the city coffers add $212,000. “I think it’s a great thing...that you have such a long-term plan,” said Council President Lloyd Martin. Although its large value required council approval, the expenditure was already planned. The OCFD’s equipment replacement schedule calls for two purchases in this budget year, the first being the aerial truck which was purchased earlier and recently delivered to the department. But, as has become par for the course with the OCFD, the discussion about the vehicles obliquely reference the apparently still adversarial stance taken by

CVB was designed to be equitable. “A lot of the small guys can’t pay for ads like that,” Jones said. “Is it really fair to all the CVB members?” But Ferrante said he would expect ads on ococean.com to be the “most equitable form of advertising,” given that the ads would be easy to value-engineer depending on their frequency of appearance and format. “It’s entirely a matter of what you want to spend,” he said. “I don’t think it should be affordable,” added Council Secretary and commission chairwoman Mary Knight. “We get so much traffic on that site, it’s a much bigger value [than other forms of advertising].” The Web site saw 253,000 unique visitors last year, according to city Tourism Director Donna Abbott. Even if advertising was not considered, “we just need more businesses to put up the $200 for a membership in order to expand the site,” Abbot said. If the site was redeveloped to allow for different tiers of business listings, “then you could just buy an expanded listing [for your business],” Dare said. “You could step it up as much as you want to.”

teed by the manufacturer for the weight load. “The manufacturer would be responsible if it didn’t meet the specified height,” Larmore said. The truck had been stored temporarily at Station 5, in West Ocean City, but “there was never any doubt that it would be going to headquarters,” he told the council. Further, Larmore noted, he had arranged for the city’s Public Works Department to remove an inch-and-a-half of trim coverage from the overhead doors at the station, providing additional clearance for future uses. Station 4, the OCFD’s North Ocean City outpost which is slated to be rebuilt in the coming year, will feature taller vehicle bays. “We have specified it for taller doors, because the equipment is getting taller as time goes on,” Larmore said.

some within the city government towards Larmore’s management capacity. “I just want to make sure we know that everything we buy in the future is going to fit in the fire house,” Councilwoman Margaret Pillas queried of Larmore, saying she had heard unfounded reports that the aerial rig would not, in fact, fit into the garage at the OCFD’s 15th Street headquarters. Larmore said the rumors were without merit. “The fire truck was specified to be the exact height as the truck it replaces,” Larmore said. “It was an inch too tall [when we first received it], but the equipment was not on that piece yet. A lot of hose was not installed.” Fully fitted out, the trucks ride height was reduced enough to meet the height specification, which had been guaran-

City grants future sign rights to 94th Street mall property ‘grandfather’ in regards to signs.” The shopping center, on the northwest block of 94th Street and Coastal Highway, has been largely derelict for some years and contains only two stores, Superfresh and Rose’s. The former holds a long-term lease on the property that grants it control over uses by other tenants, providing an assurance to the property owner but making large-scale redevelopment difficult. But if such a project were to be negotiated, the owners would like the assurance that they would not have to backpedal on their usage rights by losing their signs, which are in disrepair and have attracted complaints. “I’ve had a lot of complaints about those signs,” said Mayor Rick Meehan. “To remove them would be a big enhancement to the property.” The city has no current plans to change its regulations on signage, but has done so in the past, Meehan said. Under the current iteration of the code, the facility’s signs are legal. “They’re not non-conforming today, and they may or may not be in the future,” Meehan said. “We’re not sure what that redevelop-

Derelict signs, such as this one, will be taken down from the Ocean Plaza Mall on 94th Street with the condition that the city will allow them to be re-erected within 10 years.

(June 14, 2013) Despite concerns that it would establish a problematic precedent, the city moved forward this week with creating a grandfathering provision for the derelict signs at the 94th Street mall, with the hope that their removal will be a tepid step toward future redevelopment. Council voted Tuesday to approve an agreement between the city and the owners of the largely unoccupied Ocean Plaza Mall, which would allow the facility’s numerous marquees to be taken down but replaced in the same manner within a 10-year grace period, regardless of any new signage policies the city may adopt in the interim. “They have a concern about protecting their rights to those signs under what our ordinance allows,” said Planning and Community Development Director Matt Margotta. “You can’t go through our code and find the word

ment would look like if it happened,� Margotta said. “It probably wouldn’t be an issue anyway.� There seemed to be some question, however, as to whether or not the city could create a policy specific to a single site, and whether that policy would set a precedent for other properties. “The City Solicitor did want me to relay that this probably should take an ordinance to do, because it could set a precedent,� said Heather Stansbury, an attorney with the law firm of City Solicitor Guy Ayres, who is filling in for Ayres while he recovers from a medical issue. “He found it to be somewhat speculative. We don’t know what a new sign

ordinance would be, and we don’t know when it’s coming, if it’s coming,� Stansbury said. If the city were to adopt such a policy for 94th Street, “you might see a lot of people addressing the council about pre-amortizing their sign rights,� Margotta said. However, he said he believed bringing the issue to ordinance “might be a little bit of overkill� for what was being accomplished. “The precedence, if any, is that someone is taking down a sign that needs replacement, and we’ll let them put it back up if they do it in ten years,� Meehan said. Councilman Doug Cymek asked if reducing the time limit would spur the property to be redeveloped faster.

“Would granting it for five years accelerate the project?� he asked. “Ocean City has utilized ten years for amortizing some non-conformities in the past,� Margotta said. “Five years is sort of an industry standard, but I was trying to establish some consistency.� Councilwoman Margaret Pillas queried what would happen if the property was broken into smaller parcels or redeveloped only in part. “Then they’re on their own,� Margotta said. “These signs are for this particular property.� Only Councilman Brent Ashley voted against the agreement, saying he wanted to defer to the City Solicitor’s advice.

Sixth annual OC Air Show last wknd. featured all-civilian lineup Rain delayed Saturday’s performances about an hour; Sun. runs smothly LISA CAPITELLI ■ Managing Editor (June 14, 2013) The sixth annual Ocean City Air Show was delayed by rain last Saturday, but Sunday’s performances went off without a hitch and were viewed by thousands. “The air show was great. Despite a little rain on Saturday, which postponed the event until 2 p.m., the show went terrific,” said Jessica N. Waters, communications manager for the Town of Ocean City. “Both Saturday and Sunday brought out a great crowd of spectators on the Boardwalk and the beach,” she said. “I think despite the sequestration and the grounding of the Blue Angels, the sixth annual OC Air Show certainly did not disappoint.” The 2013 air show, produced by B. Lilley LLC Productions, featured an allcivilian, all-star lineup of performers. Because of federal budget cuts, no U.S. military aircraft were flown at the air show, or any other show in the country, this year. When the federal government’s sequester grounded

armed forces flight teams, a number of the military acts that had performed during the show the last few years could no longer attend, including scheduled headliner the Blue Angels. The show was centered on the beach at 16th Street, where premium viewing areas were set up for a fee, though the performances could be viewed from the beach and along the Boardwalk for free. The 2013 OC Air Show included aircraft demonstrations, low altitude flyovers, parachute team jumps and civilian aerobatic performances by some of the nation’s top civilian pilots over the beach both days. The only civilian-owned Sea Harrier jet in the world, flown by Art Nalls, headlined the show lineup that also included the Red Bull helicopter, aerobatic pilot Mike Wiskus in the Lucas Oil Pitts, Lucas Oil jump team, Raiders Flight Team, L-39 jet, P-51 Mustang, Air Force Heritage flight, GEICO Skytypers, John Klatt in the ANG MXS and Ocean City resident Sean Carroll flying the Yak-9. The Lucas Oil Jump Team descended from the plane to open Saturday’s show at 1 p.m. Then the rain began to fall, delaying the show a little over an hour, according to Cathy Bassett, spokeswoman for B. Lilley LLC Productions. Sunday was a “perfect day,” she said

and “everything went very well.” “Overall, we’re very pleased with the show,” Bassett said. “We’ve heard a lot of positive feedback from the people who came.” “I thought that the show was a tremendous success,” said Melanie A. Pursel, executive director of the Greater Ocean City Chamber of Commerce. “The civilian line was very entertaining and the guests that we spoke to had a wonderful time. Sunday was especially exciting with the perfect weather.” Besides the Air Show, other activities going on in town last weekend were the 12th annual OC Car and Truck Show at the convention center on 40th Street, lacrosse and basketball tournaments at Northside Park on 125th Street and a beach soccer tournament in downtown Ocean City. According to the city’s Demoflush statistics, which estimate population based on wastewater usage, there were

204,647 people in Ocean City last weekend. There are about 108 Hotel-MotelRestaurant Association lodging members (hotels, motels and some apartments) with approximately 9,500 rooms. Susan Jones, executive director of the Hotel-Motel-Restaurant Association, said about 90 percent of lodging members were full on Saturday. “The culmination of all the events led to a lot of places being sold out,” she said. “It was definitely a solid weekend room-wise.” Jones and her family took out their boat on Sunday and watched the air show from the sandbar near Hooper’s Crab House, located at the foot of the Route 50 bridge. “The show was great. It definitely brings people to town, whether they just come for the day or stay overnight” she said.

A motorcyclist was flown to Peninsula Regional Medical Center in Salisbury on Saturday following a collision on Philadelphia Avenue. At about 8:40 p.m., police saw a motorcycle speeding in the area of 32nd Street and heading south. They tried to stop the motorcycle in the area of 30th Street. The driver, Robert George Roth II, 21, of Frederica, Del., initially stopped, but just as the officers were exiting their patrol vehicle and approaching him, he turned the motorcycle and drove north at a high speed in the bus lane of Philadelphia Avenue. After driving two blocks, Roth’s motorcycle collided with a tow truck as he was trying to turn east onto 32nd Street from the bus lane. Roth suffered several injuries and was treated by Ocean City paramedics before being flown by a Maryland State Police helicopter to the Salisbury hospital. Police charged Roth with seven traffic offenses, including fleeing and eluding, reckless driving and driving while his driver’s license was suspended. Roth was expected to recover from his injuries.

Heroin found A 20-year-old Port Deposit man was arrested June 7 on Fourth Street at St. Louis Avenue after a police officer on Bike Patrol

After arresting Baldwin, police searched his vehicle, where they found six packets of heroin beneath the front passenger seat and two syringes in a backpack in the trunk. Baldwin reportedly said the items belong to him.

Heroin in OP An undercover investigation into heroin distribution led to the June 7 arrest of Brian William Jones Sr., 35, of Ocean Pines. During the month of May, a detective bought heroin from Jones in the Berlin and Ocean Pines areas, according to the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office. On June 7, Jones agreed to meet with the detective to sell additional heroin. Instead, members of the Worcester County Criminal Enforcement Team, Ocean Pines Police Department and Ocean City Police Department arrested him in a parking lot near Ocean Pines. During the course of the investigation, 173 individual bags of heroin were reportedly purchased from Jones. During the execution of a search warrant at Jones’ residence, officers found various paraphernalia and a small amount of marijuana.

Hunger leads to arrest A 24-year-old man, who has no fixed address, was charged June 4 with burglary and theft after eating food from the refrigerator in a hotel’s kitchen. Mitchell Harris Boyer entered the lobby and then the kitchen of the Sleep Inn at 11 Baltimore Ave., while the desk clerk was conducting business on the telephone. Hearing a door opening and shutting, the clerk walked to the kitchen, where he saw Boyer standing in front of the open refrigerator eating food from inside. When the clerk asked Boyer what he was doing, Boyer grabbed two sausages and ate them. Boyer also said he worked at the hotel, but the clerk told him there had been a staff meeting the day before and Boyer was not there. Boyer headed toward the dining room, but the clerk grabbed him and escorted him from the hotel. The clerk then called police, who broadcast Boyer’s description. An officer spotted Boyer at 2nd Street and the clerk was taken there, where he identified him. Back at the hotel, it was ascertained that Boyer had consumed two eggs, muffins and sausages valued at $10.

Locals arrested in marijuana bust NANCY POWELL â– Staff Writer (June 14, 2013) Four men were arrested recently in connection with the distribution of marijuana in this area. During the investigation, detectives monitored the travels of Michael Anthony Gates, 24, of Bishopville as he was going back and forth from the Redding, Calif., area to Worcester County. They believe he was facilitating the transportation and shipments of numerous packages of high-grade marijuana between the two states. In May, the Worcester County Criminal Enforcement Team executed several search and seizure warrants at various residences and a storage facility that Gates reportedly used for the criminal activity. At the conclusion of the investigation, detectives seized seven-and-a-half pounds of marijuana and approximately $30,000 in cash. Michael Gates and David J. Gates, 28, of Ocean City were arrested May 14. Michael Tevis Herr Jr., 23, of Berlin was arrested May 16, and Michael Tevis Herr Sr., 53, of Berlin, was arrested June 12. All were charged with possession of marijuana and possession with the intent to distribute marijuana. A fifth man, Justin M. McDonald, 33, of Ocean Pines, was charged with possession of less than 10 grams of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.

(June 14, 2013) A 20-year-old Salisbury man was arrested early Sunday morning after reportedly attempting to run over a police officer. The incident occurred in the parking lot of McDonald’s at 32nd Street and Philadelphia Avenue at approximately 3:45 a.m. after police were called there because of a disturbance. When they arrived, they saw a fight between a man and the McDonald’s manager and they tried to break it up. Another man believed to be involved in the fight jumped into the rear seat of a fourdoor Mitsubishi to try to get away from the scene. Officers wanted to identify suspects involved in the fight, so they approached the Mitsubishi. One officer placed his hand on the hood of the car and told the driver to stop and get out of the vehicle. The driver, Trevin Quashau Allen, looked at the officer, revved the engine and drove forward toward the officer, who was able to get out of the way. Shortly thereafter, police located the Mitsubishi in a parking lot on Penguin Drive and arrested Allen. Police charged Allen with first- and second-degree assault and traffic offenses.

City awaits word regarding Hassay case against noise ordinance Federal judge will decide injunction on town policy ZACK HOOPES ■ Staff Writer (June 14, 2013) The Town of Ocean City is waiting for a decision on its latest legal challenge from a Boardwalk musician, following a hearing in federal court Monday. Contrary to reports that the testimony would continue on June 19, city attorney Heather Stansbury said that the hearing is now complete and the judge’s decision will likely be rendered before the end of the month. “It was an all-day event. We went until about six o’clock in the evening, and now we’re done,” Stansbury said Wednesday. “The ruling will tell us whether or not the city can continue to enforce the noise ordinance for the time being.” The case was brought against the city by the American Civil Liberties Union on behalf of street violinist William Hassay, who has claimed that the town’s noise ordinance arbitrarily restricts his First Amendment freedom of expression as a musician. Monday’s hearing at the U.S. District Court in Baltimore was to decide whether or not a temporary injunction would be granted against the city’s noise law. Even if the temporary motion is upheld, the complaint would still warrant a full ruling #

on the legality of the city ordinance. “If the city doesn’t prevail, we still have the right to a full trial,” Stansbury said. In the filing, Hassay claimed that the Ocean City Police Department had threatened to arrest him for violating the city ordinance specifying that all music on the Boardwalk must be audible from a distance of no more than 30 feet. The intent of the policy, the city says, is not to limit freedom of expression from street performers, but to put a damper on the escalating volume battle that often occurs between Boardwalk storefronts that play music to attract customers, and subsequently between these stores and nearby street performers. The OCPD has contended that Hassay was never threatened with arrest or asked to leave the Boardwalk, but only asked to lower his volume.

One of the key elements of the ACLU’s legal argument, according to Stansbury, was the testimony of an acoustic engineer who had determined that almost any sound, including jingling keys and flipflops, was audible within 30 feet. But those readings, Stansbury noted, were taken on weekdays in March and May, when the ambient noise of the Boardwalk is far from its peak. Even high-volume music may fall under the 30-foot limit when shielded by the June or July din. “The ambient sound was a big issue,” Stansbury said. “If the ambient sound was ‘x’ on the days he tested, you have to figure what it would be like in June or July.” The city also argued, Stansbury said, that the 30-foot policy was not arbitrary. “The 30 feet is based on the average width of the storefronts, and is also incidentally the width of the Boardwalk,” she

said. The ordinance is a restraint that prevents merchants from using music to advertise themselves beyond their properties. “The ordinance is designed to level the playing field for all business and street performers alike,” said Mayor Rick Meehan. “Mr. Hassay is the only one who has said it prevents him from performing to his desired level.” Hassay’s complaint is the second case to be brought against the city by a street performer. Mark Chase, an artist who frequently sets up on the Boardwalk to do spray paint murals, challenged the city’s ability to enforce a permitting program for street performers in a 2011 suit. “Coincidentally, the judge who heard our case Monday was the same judge who heard the Chase matter,” Stansbury said. “So she’s familiar with the issues of the Boardwalk.”

OC business group asks for aid with international students Visa workers integral for resort’s ability to operate at peak economic capacity NANCY POWELL ■ Staff Writer (June 14, 1013) Out of concern that businesses might not be able to find enough employees in future summers, the Ocean City Hotel-Motel-Restaurant Association is asking Sen. Barbara Mikulski for help. In a letter written to Mikulski last week, Susan Jones, the association’s executive director, asked her to support an exemption in the Senate Immigration Bill that would ensure international students could continue to come to Ocean City and elsewhere in the United States for shortterm employment. “There are a few provisions that could greatly harm, and possibly end, the State Department’s Exchange Visitor Program (EVP). These changes would seriously alter the Summer Work Travel J1 Visa program which Ocean City businesses rely on for employees,” Jones wrote. “Last summer, there were close to 4,000 J1-Visa participants in Ocean City. Due to

the school calendars, these students are able to arrive in May and stay through September. Without J1 participants, many businesses would not be able to operate at full capacity, resulting in lost tax revenue.” The programs bringing the international students to Ocean City and elsewhere are administered through a public-private partnership between the Department of State and sponsor organizations. Language in the bill that prohibits the sponsor organizations from collecting fees from the J1 participants for placement and support services could eliminate the program. “Without program fees - which also cover health insurance for participants sponsor organizations would not have the resources to meet these regulatory mandates and would not be able to operate,” Jones wrote. “Our resort town will be devastated without international staff,” she added. Students participating in the Summer Work Travel program typically work for three months and travel for one month before returning to their home countries. Many of the international students working in Ocean City come from Eastern European countries and Ireland. Many

Pilot program will offer water quality assessments in OC (June 14, 2013) The Town of Ocean City has started a pilot program offering water quality assessments for properties in the downtown area, south of 18th Street. The goal of conducting an assessment is to determine best management practices that could be implemented on each site. “By determining and implementing best management practices, we will hopefully be able to decrease the amount of pollutants being carried into the Coastal Bays via storm water runoff,� said Gail Blazer, Town of Ocean City Environmental Engineer. “Clean bays are vital to our health as well as the health of our economy,� Blazer said. Small grants are available for participants who choose to execute a project after an assessment has been completed. Examples of best management practices include, but are not limited to, rain barrels, rain gardens, pervious pavement, sand filters and infiltration drains. Additional funding is available through the Storm Water Management Rebate Cost Share Program. This plan is available for properties built prior to Jan. 1, 1985, and would match the cost of a project dollar-for-dollar up to $2,000. For more information or to schedule an assessment for your home or business, contact Gail Blazer at gblazer@oceancitymd.gov or 410-289-8825.

Chinese students are also working in Ocean City this summer. International students fill a variety of openings, and many work in Boardwalk businesses, restaurants and hotels, especially in housekeeping services. The police department is involved with the students each summer because of orientations, if they are victims of a crime and if they get into trouble themselves. “We try to support the program and tell them we’re here to help them,� said Public Affairs Officer Mike Levy on Tuesday. “We want them to use crosswalks, to report crimes. We remind them of basic tenets of safety and we warn them about swimming in the ocean at night. We also tell them to lock up valuables and to put their money in a bank. We try, during orientation sessions, to remind them that law enforcement in the United States is different from a lot of countries. We’re here to help them,� he said. “From our perspective, we won’t be impacted [by the provision in the Senate Immigration Bill], but it will change the business model for a lot of Ocean City businesses,� Levy said.

Commission follows law, WOC sidewalk required even if not wanted disconnected piece of sidewalk going nowhere,” but Planning Commissioner Wayne Hartman pushed for the regulation to be followed. “If we waive [the requirement] now, we’ll waive it again later,” Hartman said. “We’ve got to start somewhere.” The requirement, in the county’s Design Guidelines and Standards for Commercial Uses, states “sidewalks at least five feet in width shall be provided along all sides of the lot that abut a public or private right-of-way.” Following the law was not Hartman’s only reason for denying Cropper’s request for a waiver of the sidewalk requirement. Many people, especially international students, walk to and from businesses and residences in that area, he said. “I can see people walking and utilizing businesses,” Hartman said. “I don’t think we’ll see less [foot] traffic.” Cropper said he would not want his children walking there. The county’s Technical Review Committee had already waived the requirement for a sidewalk in front of Dent’s building along Route 50 because the travel way for the development goes up to the property line, Zoning Administrator Jennifer Burke said. If the county had required a sidewalk there, it would have been in the State Highway Administration’s right-of-way, when all improvements are required to be on the subject property.

NANCY POWELL ■ Staff Writer (June 14, 2013) West Ocean City businessman Mike Dent is required to have a sidewalk constructed along his commercial property on Keyser Point Road. Dent does not want to have the sidewalk, but the Worcester County Planning Commission is following county regulations requiring it. “It’s not fair and he can’t afford it,” Dent’s attorney, Hugh Cropper IV, said. “It’s because of his change of use.” “You cannot use financial hardship as a reason,” zoning administrator Jennifer Burke told Dent and his attorney during the June 6 Planning Commission meeting. Cropper, on Dent’s behalf, had asked for a waiver of the requirement to install a sidewalk, which the county requires for new additions exceeding 2,500 square feet. The change of use had nothing to do with the sidewalk requirement, Burke told Cropper. Dent added on to his automotive business, Mike’s Shell, on Route 50 at Keyser Point Road and a Verizon store and a seafood market have opened there. “He’s done his best to redevelop it,” Cropper said. The addition makes it a “functioning part of the neighborhood,” but money is a “big constraint,” Cropper said. Land planner Bill Hand, speaking on Dent’s behalf, said, “The sidewalk is just a

Planning Commissioner Brooks Clayville made a motion to grant Cropper’s request for a waiver of the sidewalk requirement, but no one seconded his motion. Therefore, the requirement for a sidewalk remained. Cropper also asked, on Dent’s behalf, for the requirement for an inter-parcel connector to be deferred. The inter-parcel connector would connect Dent’s commercial building to his residence, which is on commercially zoned property, just north of it on Keyser Point Road. “I live in that house and don’t want people driving through my driveway,” Dent said. The Planning Commissioners did not agree to do waive the requirement for the inter—parcel connector. Cropper said Dent was willing to install it after redesigning it.

Dew Tour proposing June 26-29 dates for next year’s festival date, however, is that may cause a logistical dilemma for the resort even more severe than the one being experienced this year, with the Dew Tour’s beach stadium setup – currently underway – and tear-down overlapping with several other events and draining resources from the town’s Public Works and Police Departments. If the Dew Tour is unable to break down its 2014 event in a very short time span, Petito noted, it could interfere with the city’s Fourth of July fireworks, given that the Dew Tour’s site is within the restricted zone surrounding the fireworks’ launch site. “I believe their footprint interferes with what the fire marshal considers to be the safety zone,” Petito said. The event would only have four days to tear down the site, Petito noted. The first two years’ events were allocated five, and this year’s event has a full seven days for de-construction. “So if they had five days, and then bumped it up to seven, asking them to drop back to four would probably not be an option,” surmised Councilman and commission chair Joe Mitrecic. There was some question on the commission as to whether or not having equipment - such as skateboard ramps and stadium seats - within the firing zone would be a hazard as long as no actual people were within the prescribed ra-

Tear-down of event site could interfere with city’s Fourth of July fireworks ZACK HOOPES ■ Staff Writer (June 14, 2013) With the third iteration of the wildly popular extreme sports festival slated to go off next weekend, the city has indicated that the Dew Tour is already requesting a June date for the fourth annual show in 2014. At this week’s meeting of the city’s Recreation and Parks Commission, Assistant Director of Recreation and Parks Susan Petito said that promoter Alli Sports is tentatively requesting June 2629 for next year’s event “This would basically be the Thursday-through-Sunday before the Fourth of July,” Petito said. The Dew Tour has changed its timing each year it has been in the resort, with the first year’s event being in July of 2011, the second year being in August, and the current year in June. The major influence on this schedule, Petito said, appears to be NBC. The Dew Tour is nationally televised, but must work around other live sports coverage that the network may already have ongoing.

dius, or if fireworks spectators on the beach would be able to see over any left behind Dew Tour structures. Further, Special Events Coordinator Lisa Mitchell said June 28 and 29 of 2014 were likely to be requested for the Beach 5 Sand Soccer tournament, another popular and recurring sports event.

“Unfortunately, [the Dew Tour] may have to dictate when the sand soccer is, as opposed to when it wants to be,” Mitrecic said. Although he said he would prefer to see the event in August, Councilman Dennis Dare noted that “the publicity you get in June for the Dew Tour lasts all summer.”

available for $350, for up to six anglers. To sign up, contact tournament Director Mark Sampson at 410-213-2442. All catches will be weighed at the Ocean City Fishing Center in West Ocean City from 3:30-7 p.m. Spectators are invited to watch the weigh-ins. Sampson aims to make the weigh-ins educational, teaching those in attendance about the different shark species. Children are invited to sit front-row to get an up-close look at the fish being weighed. Primary divisions for the event, which has become one of the largest shark tourna-

ments on the East Coast, are mako, open (threshers and blue shark only), release and bluefish. There are also tuna and dolphin divisions. “The fish are here, just the weather’s been so unpredictable,” Sampson said. “There’s a nice mix of sharks now.” Each year, Ocean City Shark Tournament organizers strive to provide the best event possible, but not at the expense of sharks. A small number of sharks are brought to the scale annually and those that are weighed are most often “conSee OUTDOORS on Page 33A

This year, prize money will again be awarded to the three teams with the most release points. Cash awards will also be given to crews that accumulate the most release points each of the three tournament fishing days. The team that releases the most makos will be rewarded as well. The Ocean City Shark Tournament is the second of two fishing competitions that allow anglers to accumulate points toward the “Ocean City Sharker of the Year� title.

(June 14, 2013) The weather forecast factored into the 30-boat turnout for the 17th annual Mako Mania fishing event, held June 7-9, presented by Bahia Marina Tournaments. “Considering the weather, I think it went off very well,� tournament co-organizer Earl Conley said. “The weather didn’t turn out as bad as forecasted.� Some teams backed out because of the weather forecast, Conley said. Three boats headed offshore in search of mako sharks, threshers and bluefish in last Friday’s rainy weather. Twentyseven fished Saturday and all 30 of the tournament boats went out on Sunday with clear skies. Nine makos were boated during the

three-day tournament. Kelly Barr hooked the largest, a 209.5-pounder, while fishing on Moore Bills Sunday. The mako was worth $14,787.50. Victor Muzzatti’s 144.8-pound mako, caught Sunday, took second-place honors. Muzzatti and his Stress Reel-ief team were awarded $18,979.50 because of participation in added entry level calcuttas. Ken Thompson reeled in a 143.2pound mako aboard First & More on Sunday to finish in third place. Thompson and his teammates received $6,225.50. Nate Beck brought the only tournament bluefish to the Bahia Marina scale on 22nd Street. He landed a 12.8-pounder last Saturday on No Limits. The fish was worth $5,437.50. No thresher sharks were caught during the competition. Stress Reel-ief anglers also received the $1,000 W.W. Harman Award for the most sharks released with five. “I want to thank the Harman family for hosting another successful tournament and the captains, anglers and mates for participating,� Conley said.

Stoehr’s signature bodyboards hit East Coast stores this week Boards became available last week on West Coast, ship worldwide this month LISA CAPITELLI ■Managing Editor

Brian Stoehr

(June 14, 2013) Professional bodyboarder Brian Stoehr, who grew up riding the waves in Ocean City, has had a number of board endorsements and contracts with big name companies during his 14-year career. Recently, his three-year bodyboard contract with Airwalk was up for renewal, but when Stoehr had the opportunity to work with Catch Surf, he jumped at it. “The timing was perfect because I’m just getting out of the Airwalk contract. This is such a great opportunity I had to take advantage of it,� Stoehr said. Stoehr still has a shoe endorsement with Airwalk, but the company no longer produces new boards, the 34-year-old said. “It’s a cool opportunity to work with probably the most popular bodyboard and soft surfboard company in the industry. They also make beater boards (standup boards), which have become incredibly popular,� he said. Catch Surf is the parent company of Division 71, the brand Stoehr’s signature

series boards are made under. For a little over a year, Stoehr worked with Catch Surf Owner George Arzente and Marketing Director Chris Monroe to develop two high-quality, durable boards. The 45-inch stand-up bodyboard, which Stoehr said is similar to a beater board, is ideal for the waves in Ocean City, he said. He also has a 42-inch board, perfect to lay on or for drop knee, he said. Stoehr is a two-time United States Bodyboard Association Pro Tour champion in the drop knee division, winning in 2008 and 2009. He has finished in the top 10 every year since his professional career began at age 19. “I’m selling the boards that I ride every day,� he said. The boards became available on the West Coast last week. They hit East Coast

stores this week and Stoehr said they can be found in local surf shops. The boards will be shipped worldwide this month. “I’ve had a dozen signature boards over my 14-year career and they’ve always sold in the $200-$250 price range,� he said. “I worked with the company to develop stronger boards for less money.� The 45-inch board sells for $150 and the 42-inch costs $120. “They’re less than half the price of what a lot of my competitors sell their boards for and the materials are better,� Stoehr said. “You can get the best boards on the market for an amazing price. When you see me in the water, I’m riding the boards they’re selling.� Stoehr, who lives in southern Delaware, said as long as there are waves, he can be found almost daily in Ocean City riding them.

Crime: don’t ask why, do something about it Wednesday night at about 7:30 p.m., two young men got off the southbound bus at its 81st Street stop followed by two other young men who immediately knocked the first two down and began to kick them. A motorist intervened by pulling up behind the bus and pressing down on his horn as the bus drove way. The assailants quickly fled the scene. Only the bus passengers and the bus driver might know what, if anything, transpired between these four people before the attack. But no matter what it was, that is the kind of crowd Ocean City has been drawing in early June. That is also why local police say this past weekend’s criminal activity was not all that unusual. The fact is that from last Friday through Wednesday, the police made 214 arrests, with 44 of those arrests taking place on Wednesday alone. The resident population, including elected officials, can only speculate what the cause for this criminal behavior might be and the odds are that whatever they say, they will be wrong. A large number of the arrests involved people not from New Jersey, the inner city or some other suitably distant place either culturally or geographically. A good many of those arrested were from suburban Maryland and many others who came looking for trouble, but didn’t necessarily find it, were from the Eastern Shore and Delaware. Besides, looking for simple causes where nothing that definable exists is a waste of time. In June’s Parents Magazine online, it lists the 10 best beach towns for families. Rehoboth Beach made the list; Ocean City did not. Rather than pondering and arguing about the reasons this criminal element has decided to visit here in recent years, elected officials would be better off looking for ways to keep them in line once they arrive. They can always debate the matter in the offseason.

READERS’ FORUM

Commission needs transparency Editor, There is no acceptable excuse for the Worcester County Commissioners’ ram-rodding their June 4 budget vote. This is not, by a long shot, Bud Church’s first time pulling this. As long as we allow it, you can be sure, it won’t be his last. Regardless of any circumstances, we deserve genuine representation from our elected officials. Commissioner Jim Bunting was our sole consistent voice for fair and open governance. Whether the others were respecting ‘politically-correct’ protocol or were, themselves, blindsided is understandable (somewhat), but Church’s tyrannical act must still be reconciled. Therefore, although the budget was passed, “due diligence” must now be restored by objectively, publicly and openly revisiting probably all non-essential major expenditures. One significant example is the horrendous acrossthe-board (2 percent and 1.5 percent) pay-raises. A meager 0.163 percent or $110,840, is plentifully sufficient to protect county employees, thereby preserving more than $1.5 million. How many other alternatives were concealed? And why? A final closing thought: Citi-

zens who tolerate such political injustices and deceptions for any reason, have only their own consciences to face, (which can be much more scrutinizing and agonizing than public opinion). The rest of us could never fathom conceding. That would be betraying all those who have ever fought (and died!) (whether through weapons or legislation) for our God-given rights of freedom and fair representation. Don’t believe me? Listen, as I have, to emigrants from less-privileged countries, (which encompasses the vast majority of the world). Ellie Diegelmann Ocean City

Northside Park roughed up Editor, In the past, I’ve written several letters to city officials regarding Northside Park. I’ve lived in several other states and have never seen the kind of dedication and professionalism that I see in the

team who takes care of that park. They are dedicated to their job, very courteous to visitors who go there and take pride in the job they do. I hope the city appreciates their hard work, which I find is rare today. Anyway, on Sunday I had visitors from out of town and we went to the park. For the first time since I moved here in 1999, I was embarrassed to have my friends see the mess that was made of that park by a lacrosse tournament. The fields look like they are destroyed. It is awful. I don’t understand how we’d let that happen to this park. I hope whoever negotiated this event had sense enough to make sure there was a deposit made in case of damage. If not, I think it’s unfair to expect the taxpaying people of Ocean City to pay for the mess that has been made. I can’t imagine how the dedicated employees who did such a good job with that park will feel when they see this mess. Dennis Patti Ocean City

By Stewart Dobson There are extreme sports and then there are extreme sports. Even though I’ve never been on a skateboard, I have an appreciation for many of the things that skateboarders will be doing next week when the Ocean City installment of the Dew Tour takes place. I used to be somewhat of an extreme sports enthusiast myself, albeit without much of the sophisticated equipment of today. Take the BMX bikes, for instance. Going upside down on a bike isn’t as difficult as you might think. I’ve done it, although I did not anticipate that such a thing would happen after the front fender on my trusty American Flyer broke free from its supporting structure and slid down under the front wheel. This occurred, as it would happen, while hitting top speeds going down the infamous Second Street Hill. It is truly amazing how fast a bike can move when it’s sliding on metal or when it catches on a storm drain, thus launching it into the air at roughly the speed of sound. The difference between that incident and what the Dew Tour BMX’ers do is that they generally do a 360, while I did something more on the order of a 348.5. Ask to see the scars if you don’t believe me. I will, however, guarantee you that skateboarding is no tougher to master than skiing downhill on narrow strips of wall paneling tied to your feet. For how that ended, see the above reference to 348.5. Perhaps the most daring of my extreme sports exercises as a youth — and this is absolutely true as well — was attempting to go whitewater rafting down a flash flooding stream in half a 50-gallon drum. Let me say for the record that this was a very quick trip. It ended just as I was being sucked down into the maelstrom beneath a partially submerged tree that, fortunately, had one stout branch above the tide that I could grab. The sounds of sibling laughter haunt me to this day as well as, “I get his room,” “No, I get his room, “No, I get …” That last adventure, plus the thought of someone else getting my room and, it should go without saying, access to my secret stuff, generally cured me of these exotic pursuits. I did take up sailboarding for awhile, but found that, like the bicycle, when you fall, you have to be careful how you land. Which brings me to a question that has bothered me ever since the Second Street incident: the design of girls’ bikes versus boys’ bikes back then, shouldn’t they have been reversed?

Art forArt’s Sake

Artist tents line the lagoon at Northside Park on 125th Street during the 12th annual Art’s Alive fine arts show last year.

Arts Alive at Northside Park Saturday, Sun. Barbara Prevento of Salisbury, sells jewelry on the dock last summer.

Arts on the Dock Thurs. all summer LIZ LANE ■ Intern (June 14, 2013) The Ocean City Fishing Center attracts more than just fishermen weighing the day’s catch or Micky Fins’ customers sitting down to a meal. Passionate artists were scheduled to line the bayside boardwalk yesterday during the first showcase of Arts on the Dock this summer to display and sell their handmade creations. See ARTS on Page 2B

CLARA VAUGHN ■ Staff Writer (June 14, 2013) Around 80 artists will gather at Northside Park on 125th Street this Saturday and Sunday for the 13th annual Arts Alive event, an outdoor fine arts festival that is free to the public. Artwork, including drawing, sculpture, jewelry, glass, photography, mixedmedia and fiber, from local and non-local artists will be on sale. Visitors can also see the artists at work in their booths. “It’s a great family event,” said Brenda Moore, special events coordinator for the Ocean City Recreation and Parks Department, which puts the show on with the Art League of Ocean City each year. Arts Alive takes place at Northside Park, a 58-acre complex hugged by a lagoon on Ocean City’s bayside. “The beautiful location kind of speaks

for itself, and it allows the artists to spread out,” said Heather Wiles, who also is a special events coordinator for the Rec Department. Residents join visitors in the yearly event, often seeking pieces for their businesses or to decorate a home. In addition to artwork for sale, they can find live music, free crafts for children and food at the Artist’ Café. Arts Alive began in 2001, several years after changes in zoning ordinances shut down the Boardwalk-based Arts Atlantica in 1998. “The Art League of Ocean City and the community decided they really wanted another art show, and an uptown, upscale art show was born,” Moore said. Arts Alive has grown from just 25 artists its first year to close to 100. Around 7,000 visitors stroll the event each year, Moore said.

Metal Sculptor Randy Pardue of Hawthorne, Fla., will return for his fifth year at the festival with C & R Studios. “The people seem to respond to our artwork, and it’s a nice venue,” he said. In addition to business, the event coordinators keep him coming back. “They go out of their way to supply us with a little get-together at the end of the show on Saturday. That means a lot,” he said. Arts Alive newcomer Valerie LynchBeaudin from Panama City, Fla., also came on board this year thanks to a good relationship with staff at the Rec Department. She began crafting Celtic treasure boxes with her husband, Gary, when she retired about five years ago, hoping to reconnect with her Irish roots.

Art for Arts Sake

Arts on the Dock every Thursday through Aug. 29 Continued from Page 1B

Maria Cupschalk began selling her jewelry in 2010 at the annual makeshift market, now in its 12th year. She is excited this time around for customers to see pieces featuring the Kumihimo braid, a style used in ancient Samurai armor that has recently become popular. “As soon as I put them out they’re sold,” said the West Ocean City resident. “This thing is so tenacious you can’t even put a needle through it. I can see why [the Samurai] preferred this.” Cupschalk labels each piece of jewelry with a pamphlet detailing its origin and materials used in its making. She said she enjoys providing the handmade information for customers and that it’s “part of the mystique of the piece.” This quality is what makes the art show unique. Ocean City Fishing Center Manager Jennifer Blunt said the only rule is that the artists have to make everything by hand. Manufactured items are not permitted in the show, schedule to take place every Thursday until Aug. 29 from 4-7 p.m. “The show is a myriad of artists that are extremely talented,” Cupschalk said. “We all work at our craft and that is so critically important. Customers know

they’re going to get good quality.” Blunt said the number of artists, which includes painters, photographers, jewelry and clothing makers, among others, fluctuates per week, but usually between 15-20 attend. She said the West Ocean City location also helps draw people to the art show. “It’s mostly the atmosphere of it,” Blunt said. “It’s fun to be on the marina with the water and people can enjoy happy hour. It’s just a fun, unique place to have the art show.” Blunt said she has received “quite a few” new entries but many of the artists occupying the dock are returning from previous years like Cupschalk, who works with sterling silver, gold, leather and fiber, among other materials. She said she couldn’t see herself doing anything else. “I absolutely love art and I’m probably going to die with a paint brush or bead in my hand,” she said with a laugh. “When you love something you’ll do it until the end of time.” Dana Smith has been selling women’s bags and headbands since the art show’s inception in 2002. She also began making jewelry three years ago and said the art “is like taking a vacation.”

Smith said her pieces made of fish leather are attracting special attention. She said the glazed and dyed leather is much easier to work with than other fabrics and has “amazing effects.” “It is the coolest stuff ever,” she said. “It leaves behind patterns from the scales of the fish. Customers like you better if you use ocean-y themes and you always have to have something fresh.” The West Ocean City resident has a day job altering clothes and specializes in wedding attire. Smith, who surfs in her spare time, said she likes the personal quality of the art show. She said she doesn’t shop at department stores because she likes unique products that

aren’t mass-produced. “People who have a few coins to rub together depend on the handmade things from the show,” Smith said. Blunt said artists can rent space on the dock for $35 per week. A space for the whole season costs $225. Artists interested in signing up can visit www.ocfishing.com and fill out the Arts on the Dock form under the resources tab. The form is sent to Blunt, who can also be seen shopping around the dock from time to time. “I’m always looking for something for my own home,” she said. “I like that the show has what you can’t find in the local stores here in the tourist-driven town.”

with a bunch of artists” draws her to events like Arts Alive, Beaudin said. As for what patrons can expect, “there are going to be really high quality, unique items that they’re going to see,” she said. Artists at the show will vie for $5,250 of prizes, including six Judge’s Choice Awards, a Mayor’s Choice award, a People’s Choice award and a $2,000 prize

for Best of Show. Arts Alive will take place outdoors rain or shine. The show is free to the public and open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. For more information, call the Ocean City Recreation and Parks Department at 410-250-0125 or visit http://www.ococean.com/events/artsalive.

Fire, rescue and emergency personnel to gather in resort Annual convention takes place June 16-21, parade rolls through town Wed. LIZ LANE ■Intern (June 14, 2013) Volunteer fire, rescue and emergency medical services personnel will gather at the Ocean City convention center Saturday for the first day of the 121st annual Maryland State Firemen’s Association and Ladies Auxiliary convention and conference. Convention Chairman Ronald Siarnicki said about 12,000 rescue personnel and their friends and family will be “descending upon Ocean City� for the June 16-21 event. He said 358 companies in Maryland are registered to attend. Siarnicki said organizers continue to create a family-friendly environment with some of the same activities from previous years, but a new component has also been added. The convention will kick off with new “Hands On Training� sessions on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Those who attend will learn fire and rescue skills, work with tools including ladders and hoses and learn important techniques such as forceful entry. “This training is being offered to enable you to further your knowledge, expertise and abilities to serve the citizens in your community,� Siarnicki stated in a letter to convention attendees. Other presentations, seminars and family activities will take place Sunday through Friday at the 40th Street venue. Scheduled events including the Miss Fire Prevention Contest will begin Sunday at noon. There will also be a memorial service on Sunday night at 5 p.m. in the main ballroom. “The service is to honor our brothers and sisters who have died in the previous year,� Siarnicki said. The public ceremony will pay tribute to fallen fire, rescue and EMS members and Siarnicki said thousands of people are expected to attend. The service will include a presentation of fallen firefighter’s flag, unveiling of fallen firefighter’s cross and memorial wreaths and recognition of line-of-duty deaths. Siarnicki said the trips to Jolly Roger Amusement Park on Monday night and Splash Mountain Water Park on Thursday are popular events to encourage families to attend the convention as well. There will also be a parade, rain or shine, at 1 p.m. on Wednesday, June 19. “Each year the MSFA hosts the largest fire, rescue and EMS parade in the state of Maryland,� Siarnicki said. “Emergency apparatus, floats and

marching units will travel from all across the region to participate.� The parade will run about four hours and travel from 16th Street to 30th Street on Baltimore Avenue and will also feature fire engines, rescue vehicles and cheer squads. “This is a great opportunity for people to see what different equipment we have for protecting our towns,� Siarnicki said. The convention will conclude on Friday, June 21 at 7:30 a.m. with a public golf tournament at Eagle’s Landing Golf Course beginning with a shotgun start. For more information visit www.msfa.org or contact Siarnicki at 301-467-5780.

Hundreds of fire companies drive their trucks on Baltimore Avenue during the Maryland State Firemen’s Association annual parade. The 2013 parade will take place, rain or shine, at 1 p.m. on Wednesday, June 19 in Ocean City.

Beach patrol urges graduates to be smart while in OC KRISTIN JOSON ■ Contributing Writer

While lifeguards try to stop accidents before they happen, even whistle blasts sometimes don’t catch the attention of those who are horsing around. Surf rescue technicians are often left cringing in their stands, hoping that those who just dove into the foot-deep water will pop up unscathed. While 40 percent of spinal injuries occurring in the surf are caused by people diving into shallow water, the majority result from body surfers and body boarders riding waves that are breaking too close to shore. We encourage people to keep their

(June 14, 2013) While the men and women of the Ocean City Beach Patrol scan their areas and the water in front of them for signs of danger, trouble sometimes brews behind their stands. Recent high school graduates are coming to Ocean City to enjoy their newfound freedom, sometimes allowing the excitement of the atmosphere to impede their judgment. At no other time of year do we see more teenagers chase each other down the beach and into the ocean, only to end up diving into shallow water. Beach patrol members respond to spinal injuries every year, but these injuries are preventable.

arms stretched out in front of them when body surfing and to avoid riding waves that are breaking close to the sandbar or beach. Taking responsibility for your own actions and spreading caution about spinal cord injuries is the greatest form of prevention we have. Many people do not realize that wet sand is just as un-yielding as concrete. Most people would never think of attempting a flip in the middle of a parking lot. However, many of these same individuals will attempt the same maneuvers on the beach or into a few inches of ocean water. Use your head to protect your spine and think before diving or riding breaking waves into the beach.

HAPPY HOUR

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Count to 10 if you must, but don’t lose your temper, despite that person’s (you know who!) efforts to goad you into reacting. Your restraint will pay off in a big way. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) This week finds you in a sociable mood, ready and eager to enjoy the company of family and friends. It’s also a good time to seek out and renew old friendships. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Patience is called for as you await a decision about that project you’re eager to launch. Meanwhile, try to set aside more time to share with that special person in your life. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Avoid becoming involved in a workplace dispute early in the week by insisting both sides submit their stands to a neutral arbitrator. Things begin to cool off by Thursday. LEO (July 23 to August 22) It promises to be a busy but productive week for the Big Cat. The pace slows by Friday, allowing you to catch up on matters you put aside but that now need your attention. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A suddenly disruptive family situation is best handled with a cool, calm and collected response. Wait until things settle to let off all that pent-up emotional steam. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Your practical side dominates the week as you reassess your finances to make some sensible adjustments in what you plan to spend and what you expect to save. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) An unexpected meeting with a former colleague opens some interesting possibilities. But you need to press for full disclosure before making a decision. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) A recent flurry of activity eases by midweek, giving you time to readjust your disrupted schedule and make new plans for a weekend getaway. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) You’re usually the one who gives advice. But now it’s time to open yourself up to counsel from friends who have your best interests at heart. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) You might find resistance to your call for a full inquiry into a workplace problem. But by week’s end even the most rigid naysayers begin to come around. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) A recurring problem surfaces once again. Maybe it’s time you used your creative talents to help you find a new approach to resolving it once and for all. BORN THIS WEEK: You are guided in what you do both by your intelligence and your emotions. An acting career would suit you quite well.

Seafood nachos with crab, shrimp, scallops ‘sweet and succulent’ FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Contrasting flavors and textures create great dish DEBORAH LEE WALKER ■Contributing Writer Each week, cars packed with vacationers head to Ocean City anticipating a fantastic time. OC’s Boardwalk, amusement parks, sparkling ocean and mouthwatering food are just a few of the festivities that bring hundreds of thousands of tourists to the island every year. But if one were to ask locals and sightseers what is the most notable food in the resort, the blue crab would win hands down. The succulent, tender meat is absolutely scrumptious and is one of the most sought-after shellfish in the Mid-Atlantic region. According to the article, “Blue Crab in the Chesapeake,� “the earliest fossil record of this genus dates back 23 million years ago to the Miocene Epoch, during the Tertiary Period. The genus Callinectes appeared before the great ice ages of the Pleistocene and Holocene, but millions of years after the disappearance of the last dinosaurs. When rising sea level began to flood the Susquehanna River valley about 10,000 years ago, giving birth to the Chesapeake Bay, the blue crab was per-

fectly adapted to the variety of estuarine habitats that resulted.� But enough of history. Crabs are priced according to their size and. The large males bring the highest prices because they usually contain a larger quantity of meat. Males have blue claws and females have a bright orange. Think of the ladies as “painting their fingernails.� Unlike female blue crabs, there is no easy way to distinguish the sexual maturity of the male. But if one looks closely, you will observe that the apron of the adolescent male is tightly sealed whereas the adult male is free to open. An immature female crab has an inverted apron, a mature female crab has a bell shaped apron that is not tightly sealed, and a pregnant female crab carry’s a sponge of eggs that is in the interior and exterior of the abdomen. The Maryland Natural Resources released the 2013 Blue Crab Winter Dredge Survey in April. “Total abundance of blue crabs dropped 765 million to 300 million and the number of juvenile crabs dipped from 581 million to 111 million.� Since the early 1990s, there has been a dramatic decrease in the crab population. The latest survey indicated that the number of mature female crabs increased and remain above the critical numbers to sus-

tain the population, but the sudden drop in young crabs is alarming. Overharvesting, weather, or other natural occurrences can affect the crab stock, but marine officials do not think this is the culprit. Studies confirm that there has been a considerable influx of red drum fish. Drum feed on adolescent crabs and this may be one possible reason for the decline. An escalation in cannibalism among crabs themselves may be contributing to the mysterious disappearance of the record number of young crabs. Scientists believe that 20 percent of an adult blue crab’s diet can consist of juvenile crabs. There is also the issue of diminished acreage of underwater grasses because of poor water quality and irregular conditions that might be affecting the decrease of crabs. Bay grass provides a safe habitat for young crabs by protecting them from predators. But whether plentiful or scarce, blue crabs are not only a delicacy on the Eastern Shore but they are also an integral link in the Chesapeake Bay food web. We must take care of our natural resources and appreciate the blessings of Mother Nature. Seafood nachos are sweet and succulent. Contrasting flavors and textures create a terrific dish. The amounts of seafood can be reduced to comply with one’s budget. Enjoy! INGREDIENTS 3 teaspoons unsalted butter

2 pounds assorted bay scallops, deveined shrimp and jumbo lump crabmeat 1 teaspoon toasted ground cumin 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning (optional) 1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic 1 bunch green onions, sliced thinly 3 large Roma tomatoes, seeded and finely chopped 1 orange bell pepper, seeded, cored and finely chopped 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce 1 cup sour cream 1/2 to 2/3 cup sliced pickled jalapeno 2 1/2 cups grated pepper Jack cheese 1 cup grated sharp cheese 1 9 (-ounce) bag of blue tortilla chips chopped parsley for garnish 1. Heat butter in a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add seafood, bell pepper, garlic and spices and cook until shrimp become pink. 2. Place tortilla chips on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet. Top with seafood mixture, onions, tomatoes and jalapenos. Cover with cheese and broil until melted. 3. Slide mixture onto a serving dish and top with lettuce and sour cream. Garnish with parsley and serve immediately. Serves 6 to 8 SECRET INGREDIENT: Appreciation. The best way to appreciate your job is to imagine yourself without one. — Oscar Wilde

Aerial adventure with Lucas Oil’s Wiskus and jump team SHEILA R. CHERRY ■ Associate Editor/Bayside Gazette

www.facebook.com/ oceancitytoday

(June 14, 2013) In preparation for the 2013 Ocean City Air Show, June 8-9, I spent last Thursday morning with the Lucas Oil Pitts stunt plane and sky diving team. Michael Wiskus, a civilian stunt pilot from Minnesota, was checking his screaming red stunt plane on the runway of the Ocean City Airport. I was sliding into a parking space only a few steps from the main terminal when the bright red Pitts Special S111B plane emblazoned with the Lucas Oil logo in white and the MAVTV.com logo in navy blue caught my eye. It was like NASCAR, with wings. I took one look at the plane and my mind did the rest: placed it against aquablue, dark-blue, green-blue and of course sky-blue backdrops in strobe-like flashes in my brain. “Just call me Mike” Wiskus was the 2002 U.S. National Aerobatic Champion and a member of the 2004 U.S. Aerobatic Team. He has been flying since he was 17 years old and has more than 24,000 flight hours under his belt. What he can do with a plane makes the word “awesome” cliché. I was strapped in to the open cabin of

the chase plane and clicked away on my camera as Wiskus put his machine through its paces with a series of spins, loops and rolls. Then he disappeared from view completely with a maneuver described as a roll inverted dive, where he dropped below our chase plane, rolled to the side and shot up and above us in a swirl while turning on his smoke to leave a visible trail of it all. The second flight of the morning was with the sky diving team of lead jumper Nick Halseth, who has racked up 6,500 jumps in 22 years; Ryan Albrecht, with 800 jumps in six years; and Luke Evans, with 3,000 jumps in 11 years. Before we left the ground, I was trussed up with a parachute. When I asked why, the answer was, “Just in case you end up on the outside of the plane.” Excuse me, but “WHAT?” Pilot Dave Asleason, a commercial pilot, was helping at the controls of the chase plane and the jump went off without a hitch. What was not a surprise was the amount of work, dedication and professionalism involved in making what many consider daredevil stunts consistently spectacular. The experience was an adrenaline addict’s dream.

Mystery novel based in Ocean City LIZ LANE ■Intern (June 14, 2013) Kim Kash, author and Ocean City enthusiast, wrote “Ocean City Lowdown: A Jamie August Novel� entirely from her home in Saudi Arabia. She said after having a “bizarre and hilarious� experience writing it, the mystery novel was scheduled to hit online shelves Thursday. “It’s very fun and beachy,� said Kash. “I hope it’s the type of book people take to the beach and read with a drink in their hand.� Kash’s first fiction novel follows Jamie August, a tenacious and spunky main character. The young heroine works as a rookie reporter for an arts and entertainment newspaper in Ocean City, but soon uncovers murders and corruption inside a powerful real estate empire. The Greenbelt, Md. native spent much of her life in the tourist town and owns a condo in the resort with her husband Michael Cooney, who said he is excited for the release of his wife’s book. Kash said this affection she has for Ocean City inspired the idea for “Ocean City Lowdown: A Jamie August Novel.� The novel comes four years after Kash’s first book, “Ocean City: A Guide to Maryland’s Seaside Resort.� The guide was Amazon’s top-selling Maryland travel title in the summer of 2009 and provided Kash with a mental map of the town. “I had set up in my mind the geography of Ocean City perfectly to write my novel,� she said. “It was a big whirlwind of very specific research in Ocean City.� This extensive knowledge of the resort allowed Kash to include, in “Ocean City Lowdown: A Jamie August Novel,� references to popular restaurants and attractions. She said a pivotal scene for August happens at Pizano’s Pizza and Pasta, the Boardwalk’s Seventh Street eatery. Kash also hinted at a crucial scene inside the 49th Street hot spot, Seacrets, as well as a shootout at a bayside trailer park. “I tried to be as accurate as possible in describing Jamie’s movements around Ocean City,� she said. “The corrupt real estate and housing development is fictitious but the places around her are real geographic locations of Ocean City.� In the fall of 2009, a few months after releasing her guide, Kash and Cooney moved to Saudi Arabia. The couple were interested in living over seas for many years and found an opportunity for Cooney to work in the Middle Eastern country as a paramedic. Kash said Cooney was previously training Saudi Arabian paramedic students at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, which inspired the location of their move. Kash continued to work as a freelance writer after relocating to Saudi Arabia. She said she writes for various publications about health and wellness, focusing on travel. Kash said she loves the combination of freelance and novel writing and that she can’t choose one over the other. “The freelance keeps me on my toes and careful with my writing and re-

search,� she said. “Writing the novels allows me to get wacky.� The enthusiasm for her mystery novel comes from, she said, her childhood love for Nancy Drew stories. She said she likes a strong female lead and heroine. Writing the novel allowed Kash to “be thinking about [Ocean City]� while in Saudi Arabia. She said the beach and eating crabs are two things she misses most. However, Kash said she still enjoys the differences in lifestyles of Saudi Arabia. She has more time to devote to writing and said she has taken up cooking. “There [are] a lot of tropical fruits that I have no idea what [they are],� she said. “It’s fun to learn how to cook in this new cuisine.� In between writing, cooking, diving, sailing and rock climbing, Kash said she finds time to develop ideas for more novels. She said she is planning to make “Ocean City Lowdown: A Jamie August Novel� the first in a mystery series. “I definitely think Jamie August needs to be heard from again,� she said.

If you’re a retiree in the area, remember what your mom used to tell you, “The devil loves idle hands.” I’ve sorely missed volunteering with the Play It Safe group this year. Bev Townsend, Donna Greenwood, Lois Twilley, Donna Abbott, Al (Hondo) Handy, Louisa McCabe, Mary Jane Maxwell, and the Hall family are just a few of the nice folks I’ve crossed paths with while volunteering around our town over the last 26 years.

Trust me, folks, at that time in the morning, even familiar roads look different. And the pretty teen who moved in with graduate friends in the house across the street who assured me they would be good responsible kids on their week’s vacation. Hey, who sez the world’s going crazy when there’s young folks like these two who know the magic of communication at the right time in the right place. Not true that the locals hibernate during the tourist season. Browsing, looking for housing for unexpected guests or just drowsing on a bench, I found my would-be table snatcher John Staley and daughter, Val, the Westfalls, Helen Subkowiak, the Fairbends and Joe and Jane Mulholland. Be on the lookout for June birthday celebrators Ruth Murphy, Howard Kline, Joi Pairo, Dennis Roarty, Mary Moeller, Naomi Popolo, Jim Crabill, Lois McGregor, Jack Whitmer, Dottie Grimes, Ron Bergsmith and anniversary folks, Rick and Grace Jenkins, Dick and Diane Scott, Nick and Pam Galvin, Paul and Millie O’Brien, Karl and Mary May, and almost newlyweds, Gary and Ann Distler out celebrating five years of bliss and blisters. If you happen to cross paths with any or all of these local celebrators give ‘em a big hug from the Kemps.

Toy cars spill from the corner of the lobby, an eclectic collection of framed cross-stitch embroideries, vintage armchairs, shorebird decoys and a phonograph. Next door at the Salty Yarns needlework shop, the hotel owner offers a child a pack of doughnuts behind the counter while chatting with friends and patrons. “It’s not a luxury hotel. It’s a home away from home,” said Lankford Hotel owner Sally Rutka. That home-

‘It’s like a crash course, but we try to give them everything, all the tools they need, to move forward.’ CLARA VAUGHN ■ Staff Writer (June 14, 2013) Filming started Monday for the four-day makeover of the Lankford Hotel on Eighth Street by the Travel Channel’s “Hotel

Impossible” crew. The group planned to spend four days overhauling the historic hotel for an episode of the show, set to air later this season. Since its inception in 1924, the Lankford Hotel has been a family-run

business. Not much has changed over time, said third-generation owner Sally Rutka. Her guests return year after year, often staying in the same room on the same weekend. Like the hotel ownership, guests span three generations. “Most of our clientele are repeat guests,” said Rutka’s daughter and comanager Mary David. “That’s our biggest problem.” David, who applied to be on “Hotel Impossible” in February, hopes the show will help the business draw new guests in a resort town with scores of hotel options, including those with amenities such as Jacuzzis and swimming pools that the Lankford lacks. The challenge will be to keep the hotel’s historic roots throughout the updates, said “Hotel Impossible” cohost and interior designer Blanche Garcia. The goal of the show is to give hotel owners a roadmap to greater prosperity, she said. “It’s like a crash course,” Garcia said, “but we try to give them everything, all the tools they need, to move forward,” including administrative

(June 14, 2013) The 1st Street Bistro celebrated its grand opening in mid-May and the response from customers since then has been overwhelmingly positive. "People have been very receptive. There has been nothing but positive reactions," said Don Quackenbush, who runs the bistro. He is also the operations manager of the Sleep Inn & Suites, on the corner of First Street and Baltimore Avenue, where the bistro is located. "It's a really convenient location," Quackenbush said. "It's convenient for people walking by and the bistro is another amenity for the hotel guests." Although the bistro has only been open for about a month, many customers have been repeats. They are pleased with the low prices and good portions, Quackenbush said. "They can feed their family in here for $20 and that makes their experience more enjoyable," he said. Breakfast, which includes Belgian waffles, bagels, sandwiches and combos, is available all day. Classic cold cut, Italian cold cut, roast beef, meatball, smoked turkey breast and ham are the bistro's featured six- and 12-inch subs. Grilled sandwiches include chicken and cheddar, ham and cheese and smoked turkey and swiss. "They're really big. You get a lot for [the price]," said employee Ashley Houston.

tels that are struggling or not living up to their potential. The Lankford Hotel opened in 1924 and remains in the family. Rutka’s parents bought the hotel from her great aunt in 1962, and Rutka bought the business in 1988. Not much has changed in that time, she said. “I’ve been involved with it since 1962. I only see it one way and that way never changes,” Rutka said. But after she returned to college in her 40s, she “started to see that change has to happen.” The hotel has undergone some major renovations since its inception, including outfitting each room with a bathroom and stripping wood paneling from the walls of the front rooms and replacing it with drywall. The family renovates a room or two each year, but costs are “hindering,” Rutka said, leading David to apply for a shot on “Hotel Impossible” in February “as a lark.” “At first I thought … ‘They’re never going to come to Ocean City,’” Rutka said. But her daughter filled out questionnaires and sent photos of the hotel and in early May received a phone call from the Travel Channel. The family was hoping to keep the ren-

ovations between themselves and hotel guests until the show airs in August or September, but word spread fast in Ocean City. “We’re all a little nervous,” David said. “We’re airing any problems that we have here and it’s a little scary, a little nervewracking, but in the end, it’s for the good of the hotel.” The “Hotel Impossible” crew has hired local people and businesses, including Ocean City’s Joseph T. Dashiell Builders, for the overhaul of the 22-room, 28apartment hotel, but is keeping details sparse, David said. “They really try to make it as much of a surprise as they can,” she said. Rutka is skeptical about changing the hotel, but agreed that the crew might be able to help her business. “It’s always good to have an outside person come in and say, ‘If you were to do this differently, that would raise the bottom line.’” The Lankford Hotel is open from the first weekend in May to the first weekend in October. The episode of “Hotel Impossible” will air in August or September. To learn more about the hotel, visit www.lankfordhotel.com.

advice as well as cosmetic renovations. Since it first aired in April of 2012, “Hotel Impossible” and its host, Anthony Melchiorri, have seen more than 25 struggling hotels around the world restored. About 80 percent of hotel owners have heeded advice offered on the show, Garcia said. In tackling the Lankford, the “Hotel Impossible” crew recruited local workers, including the three-camera film crew, electricians and fleet of about 20 workers under the direction of Ocean City contractor Joe Dashiell of Joseph T. Dashiell Builders. They also sourced local materials. Dashiell has renovated other Ocean City hotels, including the Wilmington Terrace and Boardwalk Terrace, but “this is the first time we’ve done something like this,” he said. “The big difference is we have four days to do it,” Dashiell said. He was contacted by the Travel Channel to be part of the renovations, which include exterior painting and general “sprucing up” on the inside and outside of the Lankford Hotel, he said. He hopes the project will help Rutka and her co-manager daughters David and Sara Rutka-Karst boost business, “and to show

Customers can also get an all-beef quarter-pound hot dog for $2.99. Chef and garden salads and a grilled chicken Caesar salad are offered, too. The $2.99 children's menu includes a hot dog and grilled cheese, ham and cheese and peanut butter and grape jelly sandwiches. To satisfy that sweet tooth, the bistro offers ice cream sandwiches, freshly baked cookies and cheesecake. Beer and wine is also available. The 1st Street Bistro offers several homemade wine coolers. They are whitewine based and mixed with different juices. Summer Breeze OC Cooler (white wine, Seagrams ginger ale, blackberry and blueberry-pomegranate juice) and Ocean

Sunrise OC Cooler (white wine, Seagrams ginger ale, orange and pineapple juice) are just two to choose from. "They're made with 100 percent juices because it tastes better. It's a cold and refreshing drink," Quackenbush said. "People love the wine coolers, especially the 80s and early-90s generations, when they were really popular." Carol Weigner, Sleep Inn front desk Manager said the coolers are “nice and light for the summertime." Happy hour is daily from 2-7 p.m. with $2 domestic beers. A sub will be featured daily for $4.99. Dining is available inside the eatery and on the outdoor porch. The 1st Street Bistro is open daily, 11 a .m. to 2 a.m.

REAL ESTATE REPORT

Study reveals more people searching for homes online LAUREN BUNTING ■ Contributing Writer A joint study released earlier this year by the National Association of Realtors (NAR) and Google reported that real estate-related searches on Google have grown by more than 253 percent over the past four years. The study, entitled “The Digital House Hunt: Consumer and Market Trends in Real Estate,” was conducted to improve the understanding of the evolving role of digital media in the consumer home search process. NAR and Google collaborated to uncover trends and insights around digital media usage among home shoppers, whether they were looking for an existing home, a newly constructed home, or apartment. Some of the report highlights were: • 90 percent of homebuyers searched online during their home buying process. • 31 percent of home shoppers who take action on a real estate site are aged 25-34, surpassing all other age groups. • Online home shoppers will perform an average of 11 searches prior to taking any action on a real estate site; and, 78 percent of online shoppers visit 3-plus sites before taking any action on a real estate site. • Buyers use specific online tools during different phases of the home search process. Buyers tend to rely on search engines and general websites when they begin their search; use maps more in the middle of the process and engage mobile apps more towards the end of their search. • Top states for buyers who were presumed to be first time home buyers were Delaware, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Dakota and Wyoming; inquiries related to senior housing were the highest in Nebraska, North Carolina, Oregon, Virginia and Washington; and, for vacation home searches, the top states were Florida, Ohio, Oregon, South Carolina and South Dakota. • 36 percent of new home shoppers use a mobile device while they are watching television. • You Tube is the top video research destination for home shoppers, with brokerage websites coming in second, and google.com coming in third. According to data from Realtor.com, buyers most frequent search criteria are number of bedrooms and bathrooms, square footage, garages, heating/air systems, and swimming pools. These home features represent nearly 70 percent of all searches on the site. Lauren Bunting is a licensed REALTOR® with Bunting Realty Inc. in Berlin.

Choisser retires after nearly 20 yrs. as turf equipment manager (June 14, 2013) George Choisser has retired after nearly 20 years with the Town of Ocean City as the turf equipment manager at Eagle’s Landing golf course. While Choisser’s formal responsibilities included equipment maintenance, he was instrumental in keeping the equipment performance at an award-winning level. He founded the Eastern Shore Association of Turf Equipment Managers and presided over the group, which enhanced the golf industry on the shore for 15 years. During his employment, Choisser was also on staff at Delaware Technical and Community College for more than 10 years. He taught and mentored students in their turf management curriculum and served on the Agriculture Department Advisory Board.

“In nearly 20 years, I have met many employees and officials who were dedicated to making Ocean City a warm and welcoming place to work and play. I am grateful for those who have become my friends and enriched my life, “Choisser said. He worked in California in the auto racing industry for 25 years before moving to Maryland in the 1990s. His background includes sales, teaching, management and special factory training and updates from Toro and John Deere. Choisser’s retirement plans include spending more time focusing on his home, his family and his faith. He hopes to enjoy the beach, his garden and his church while also traveling to other parts of the country to visit his family and friends.

Improvements on the Property 11070 Cathell Road - The property being sold is improved by a commercial shopping center, on the south side of Cathell Road, near to but not abutting Maryland Route 589 (Racetrack Road) in the immediate area of the Ocean Pines community, in Berlin, Maryland. The site is afforded a frontage of approximately 493 feet along Cathell Road and is directly accessible from said Cathell Road. The site is improved with a multi-tenanted neighborhood shopping center, built approximately 1986, which totals 63,900 square feet more or less of gross building area. The structure is of concrete block and steel construction, situated on a concrete slab, with a brick veneer along the front. The roof is mostly flat and comprised of a mix of tar and chip, metal and rubber membrane. There are 18 commercial units in the shopping center, said units ranging in size from 750 square feet up to 24,650 square feet. In addition, the property contains a free standing five bay car wash facility (one automatic, four self-serve) totaling 3,034 square feet more or less positioned on a pad in front of the shopping center, near to Cathell Road. It includes six vacuum stations and a water recovery system. Site improvements include the asphalt parking lot and drives; concrete sidewalks and curbing, utilities, storm water management, exterior lighting and landscaping. 11206 Five-L Drive - The property is non-contiguous to the shopping center, comprising 11.035 acres of land, more or less and believed to be zoned A-2. The property is being sold As-Is, without any warranty or representation as to the actual condition thereof. Reference is made to the site for a more complete description. Sewer and Water Matters The property is temporarily connected to the Ocean Pines service area water and waste water system, but is to be permanently connected thereto. On February 7, 2012, the Worcester County Commissioners passed Resolution No. 12-1 which provides for the intended provision of public water and sewer to the Ocean Pines Plaza commercial area from the Ocean Pines sanitary service area. The project which will provide such service will consist of a gravity collection system, containing pipe lines of eight inches in diameter, connecting to each property, including the subject property at the street right-of-way. Further information related to such proposed connection, the cost thereof, and the time at which it is proposed, to be built will be provided upon request by the undersigned, Substitute Trustees at 3509 Coastal Highway, Ocean City, MD 21842.

The purchaser is responsible for any and all housing or zoning code violations.

Upon refund of the deposit to purchaser, the sale shall be void and of no effect, and the purchaser shall have no further claims against the property, the Substitute Trustees, the secured party or the note holder.

Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that this provision was a negotiated part of the Memorandum of Purchase and serves as an essential component of consideration for the same.
