MetCom Task Force
Begins Its Work
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
A task force of local elected leaders, Met-
ropolitan Commission board members and
citizens were to begin their work this week
to nd solutions to key issues facing the
countys water and sewer provider.
Among those issues was a need to nd
ways to make MetComs operations sustain-
able in light of the fact that as its costs con-
tinue to rise it is not bringing in enough new
customers to keep rates stable.
Also a likely point of contention will be
whether to enforce mandatory hook ups to
water and sewer for property owners on well
and septic when new service lines are laid
near them.
The mandate which is included in Section
113 of the county code, is a controversial one
since it forces homeowners who have their
own well and septic systems to abandon
them and switch over to central water and
sewer at a cost of tens of thousands of dollars.
Commissioner Tom Jarboe, a member of
the task force, said the workload would be
challenging but he did not expect its recom-
mendations to come out in favor of enforcing
that mandate.
Still, some on failing well and septic sys-
tems want to nd a way to hook up to Met-
Coms lines.
Ill wager that you wont see a push for
a mandatory hook up, Jarboe said. Its a
quick x for MetCom but its not palatable to
property owners.
In practice the county has not strictly en-
forced the hook up mandate.
The task force will also likely look at Met-
Coms rate system, which is based on con-
sumption of water and sewer but not subject
to change based on geography, Jarboe said,
which meant that cost benet analyses would
have to be done on projects such as the ex-
pansion of water and sewer in places like St.
Clements Shores.
That project is for less than a dozen people
on failing systems and costs an estimated
$1 million.
Leonardtown Gets New Deputy
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
After months with the position being va-
cant, the Town of Leonardtown again has its
own dedicated deputy to patrol its streets.
Cpl. Kristi Nelson has served with the St.
Marys County Sheriffs Ofce for the past
11 years, she told the Leonardtown Town
Council at their Monday meeting.
She was worked in the agencys patrol di-
vision and been active in community polic-
ing in Lexington Park; her latest assignment
before coming to Leonardtown was working
as a school resource ofcer at Great Mills
High School.
Laschelle McKay, town administrator,
said the town council was pleased to nally
have a deputy assigned specically to patrol
the towns streets.

By using a nancing plan, such as a re-

Changes To Moakley, Abell Street Salons Eyed For Selling

Intersection Years Away
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
Plans to improve the intersection on
Route 5 in Leonardtown at Moakley and
Abell streets, viewed by many in town
government and among residents as the
most problematic portion of the road, are
moving ahead but will not be completed
until at least 2021, state highway officials
are reporting.
Route 5 through the county seat is one
of the most congested other than Route
235 which runs through Lexington Park
and California, and vehicle collisions on
the narrow road are a constant occurrence.
The general scope of the project is to
construct northbound and southbound
Route 5 left-turn lanes at Abell and Moak-
ley streets and widening of the main road.
There will also be safety improvements
for pedestrians and cyclists.
Laschelle McKay, town administrator,
said the project was sorely needed.
Im glad theyre starting with this
portion of the road because its the most
dangerous, she said as she reviewed
theplans.
State Highway Administration (SHA)
officials showed residents their plans for
improving the key intersection Tuesday at
the Leonardtown Volunteer Fire Depart-
ment, with topographical displays of pro-
posed changes.
Project members have eliminated plans
to put raised medians on Abell and Moak-
ley streets to allow for a more fluid traf-
fic pattern to and from nearby proper-
ties, particularly First Saints Community
Church which already has limited access
to Route 5.
Planners also want to extend the center
turn lane on Route 5 up to the intersection
with MedStar St. Marys Hospital to allow
better access to the facility.
The new plans also call for an extra
seven feet on the side of the road for horse
and buggies used by the Amish and Men-
nonite communities; planners accom-
plished this by eschewing curb and gutter
improvements and focusing only curbs
beinginstalled.
So far state officials say they have com-
pleted 65 percent of the projects design. or licensing requirements or because they

Liquor Sans License
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
Starting July 1 hair and nail salons
could actively seek a special liquor li-
cense legislated especially for them in St.
Marys County but officials with the lo-
cal Alcohol Beverage Board are getting
reports that some of these establishments
are still selling without a license and there
is nothing they can do aboutit.
Theyve been doing it for years, said
Alcohol Beverage Board Coordinator Ta-
mara Hildebrand. We just dont have ju-
risdiction over anyone not licensed.
Hildebrand said that only local law en-
forcement agencies or the State Comptrol-
lers Office would be able to commit to
any enforcement actions.
Hildebrand said the reasons salons may
be continuing to sell alcohol, particularly
wine, may be due to ignorance of the law
throughout the county.
choose not to pay the $300 for the newly
minted license.
Its been spoken about ad nauseum in
board meetings, she said.
Hildebrand said she has received many
phone calls from nail and hair salons about
whether they can sell alcohol and are re-
peatedly told they cannot do so without a
license.
Some businesses labor under the notion
that they can give alcohol to their custom-
ers for free, Hildebrand said, even though
it is illegal in the Maryland to give alcohol
away at a for-profit business.
The legislation that provided for licens-
es for hair and nail salons passed this year
in Annapolis after having gone down in
defeat the prior year; it had been strongly
opposed by the countys liquor board and
the licensed beverage association due to
the potential for proliferation of liquor

Summ er D in n er Carfentanil and Other
Drugs in Disguise
St. Marys County continues to expe-
rience a tragic and deadly opioid drug
epidemic. Opioid drug intoxication deaths
in the county have involved prescription
opioids, heroin, fentanyl, and now carfen-
tanil. Most St. Marys County opioid re-
lated drug intoxication deaths thus far in
calendar year 2017 have involved fentanyl.
The first drug intoxication fatality re-
lated to carfentanil in St. Marys County
was identified in June 2017. To date, there
have been 35 confirmed drug intoxication
deaths related to carfentanil in Maryland.
Carfentanil has been traditionally utilized
as a tranquilizer for large animals (e.g., el-
ephants) and is about 100 times more po-
tent than fentanyl, which itself is several
times more potent that heroin and mor-
phine. Even very tiny amounts of fentanyl
and carfentanil can cause a person to die.
Naloxone (Narcan) may help reverse
the breathing problem that an opioid over-
dose creates and can save a persons life.
However, sometimes even multiple doses
of naloxone are not enough to save the life
of a person overdosing on opioids such as
fentanyl and carfentanil.
Fentanyl or carfentanil may be lacing
drugs that are sold in the street as heroin
or other drugs. Counterfeit oxycodone
pills containing fentanyl or carfentanil
have also been identified in Maryland
communities. Sometimes drug sellers
and drug buyers may not be aware that

the drugs they are dealing with contain
these very lethal opioid drugs of fentanyl
or carfentanil.
U-47700 is another synthetic opioid
drug that has been associated with less
than 20 fatalities in Maryland thus far.
It is also known as Pink or U4 and
has been identified as being far more po-
tent than morphine. As with fentanyl and
carfentanil, U-47700 may be disguised in
drugs sold on the street as heroin, fentan-
yl, or prescription opioids.
Prescription drugs should only be used
when medically prescribed to you and
when dispensed by a state licensed phar-
macist. Drugs obtained on the street or
internet, even those sold as prescription
drugs, may be laced with incredibly lethal
opioids such as fentanyl, carfentanil, and
U-47700.
The health department urges anyone
using opioid drugs for non-medical pur-
poses and anyone concerned about their
drug use to seek immediate medical as-
sessment. Efafective treatment is avail-
able and can restore your life. Get you or
your loved one the help they need from a
substance use treatment provider.

Bipartisan Bill Aims at
Stalled Bay Program
Prior to the Independence Day work pe-
riod, U.S. Senator Cardin, a senior mem-
ber of the Senate Committee on Environ-
ment and Public Works (EPW), joined
with a bipartisan group of Senate col-
leagues to move forward legislation that
would reauthorize marquis programs at
the heart of restoring and maintaining the
health of the Chesapeake Bay watershed.
S. 1514, the Hunting Heritage and Envi-
ronmental Legacy Preservation (HELP)
for Wildlife Act was introduced recently
with Senators John Barrasso (R-Wyo.),
chairman of the Senate Committee on En-
vironment and Public Works (EPW), Amy
Klobuchar (D-Minn.), Shelley Moore
Capito (R-W.V.), Tammy Baldwin (D-
Wisc.) and John Boozman (R-Ark.).
A healthy Bay means a healthy econ-
omy for Maryland and the entire Chesa-
peake Bay Watershed region, which can-
not be accomplished without a reliable
federal partner. I urge appropriators to
take note of the bipartisan support for

authorizing these programs, despite the
presidents lack of understanding of their
worthiness, said Senator Cardin. States
rely on the EPAs Chesapeake Bay Pro-
gram to provide federal accountability,
enforceability, and resources to restore the
health of this national treasure. Combined
with reauthorization of the Chesapeake
Bay Gateways and Watertrails Initiative,
National Fish and Wildlife Foundation,
and protection for our fish and birds, this
bipartisan bill is a significant victory for
the Bay. Less pollution means more oys-
ters and crabs, healthier farmland, more
boats and tourism on the water, and
morejobs.
Among other things, the HELP for
Wildlife Act will Reauthorize and fund
the EPAs Chesapeake Bay Program until
2023 at $90 million per yearmore than
the program has ever been funded in its
history. This unique regional partnership,

Wildewood Parking Lot Changes OKd
Hollywood Dollar General Plan Approved
By Dick Myers
Staff Writer
The St. Marys County Planning Com-
mission at its July 10 meeting approved
two projects that are tangentially related.
A modification to the parking lot at the
Wildewood Shopping Center was okayed
along with a concept plan for a new Dollar
General store in Hollywood.
The plan for the shopping center park-
ing lot includes the addition of 74 park-
ing spaces. Most of the addition would be
achieved by turning a through traffic lane
in front of the section that now includes
a Dollar General Store into a parking lot.
That section that will be turned into a
parking lot contains several empty store-
fronts. The World Gym there recently
vacated the center. Earlier defectors were
Sears and a chiropractic office. At the op-
posite end of that strip, a frozen yogurt
store and a Chinese buffet restaurant have
vacated.
Merchants in that part of the shopping
center had been told at one time that their
section was slated for redevelopment
but an Office of Land Use and Growth
Management (LUGM)official told the

and Revolving Loan Fund Partnership with MARBIDCO
SMADC AnnouncesThree New Fund-
ing Programsfor Farmers and Revolving
Loan Fund Partnership with MARBIDCO
The Southern Maryland Agricultural
Development Commission (SMADC)
announced a new mini-grant program to
help farmers start or expand agricultural
operations. SMADC is also offering funds
to incentivize the utilization of MARBID-
CO programs in the five-county region.
The Southern Maryland Agricultural
Development Commission (SMADC) an-
nounced three new programs specifically
targeted to individual farmers.
SMADCs Agricultural Mini-Grant
Program is open to applicants age 16 and
older, residing and farming in Anne Arun-
del, Calvert, Charles, Prince Georges or
St. Marys counties.
Grant awards will be made up to $2,000
per applicant, as a one-to-one match and
can be used for a variety of projects. Ex-
amples include the purchase of foundation
livestock, purchase of plant stock, mar-
keting and promotion activities, fencing,
hoop house, and on-farm upgrades to en-
hance food safety. Administrative expens-
es and events are not eligible for program
funding.
The mini-grants program is great for
young or beginning farmers that need
some assistance getting started and also
for more experienced farmers who would
like a little capital to try out new ideas on
the farm, or diversify their existing op-
erations. Were excited about this program
and we hope that many farmers will be

location opens, or retain both. A
person familiar with Dollar Gen-
eral told the County Times that
the Wildewood location would be
closing with the new store.
A call to the owner of World
Gym (which has several other
locations in Southern Maryland)
was not returned as of press
deadline.
The shopping center parking
lot redo was unanimously ap-
proved with little comment.
The Dollar General proposal
on Mervell Dean Road in Hol-
lywood did draw more planning
commission comment. And, during the
public comment section a resident of Joy
Chapel Road expressed concern about
traffic on Mervell Dean Road, which
is used to access Hollywood Elemen-
tary School and a restaurant at the end of
Clarks Landing Road, as well as the of-
ten-busy Brusters ice cream location. The
speaker wondered why the vacated World
Gym location couldnt be used for the ex-
pansion of the Dollar General nearby.
The new Dollar General is across the
street from Brusters, which at times sees
parking spilling over to the shoulders of
Mervell Dean Road. You never like to
park too far away from your ice cream,
able to take advantage of it., said Shelby
Watson-Hampton, Director of SMADC.
Along with the mini-grant program,
SMADC announced two additional pro-
grams, offered in partnership with the
Maryland Agricultural and Resource-
Based Industry Development Corporation
(MARBIDCO).
The Southern Maryland Agricultural
Equity Incentive Matching Fund was es-
tablished to incentivize loan requests from
Southern Maryland farms and aquacul-
ture producers and to help them meet cer-
tain down-payment (equity) requirements.
Commercial lenders typically require
borrowers to contribute some of their own
money towards the funding of a business
project, said Steve McHenry, Executive
Director of MARBIDCO. The equity
incentive matching money is going to be
a significant help to Southern Maryland
farmers, especially young and beginning
farmers.
Under this program, the farmer applies
directly to one of MARBIDCOs existing
loan programs. SMADC will contribute
up to a maximum of $20,000 towards a
Maryland Resource-Based Industry Fi-
nancing Fund Loan (MRBIFF) applica-
tion and up to $5,000 towards the other
loan programs to be used as a down pay-
ment (per applicant), not to exceed five
percent of the project costs.
SMADC and MARBIDCO also estab-
lished the Southern Maryland Revolving
Loan Fund to assist Southern Maryland
farmers with smaller agricultural projects
The road above in front of a section of the Wildwood Shopping Center
quipped Planning Commission Chairman
Howard Thompson. He said that Brusters
customers may try to use the Dollar Gen-
eral parking lot. He suggested signs pro-
hibiting that.
The Dollar General has some unre-
solved issues. It needs a variance from the
appeals board for a buffer yard reduction
on the south side of the 3.21-acre property
adjacent to a residence.
There also are unresolved traffic and
storm-water management issues. Acting
Public Works Director John Groeger said
a traffic study is required but the state has
yet to complete its review. Also, the de-
veloper may have to propose underground
storm water retention.
that may not typically be financed by a
commercial lender. This loan fund is in-
tended to stimulate the agricultural econ-
omy in Southern Maryland and enhance
the viability of existing operations, said
Watson-Hampton.
Loan amounts range from $10,000 to
$20,000, targeted to three specific areas:
livestock, small fruits, and Good Agri-
cultural Practices (GAP) and food safety
upgrades.
Under the livestock section of the loan,
eligible uses include the purchase of live-
stock or artificial insemination to improve
herd genetics, refrigeration facilities,
fencing and animal shelters, etc.
The loans small fruit section is in-
tended to incubate the production of small
fruits and increase acreage of existing
small fruit operations. Producers may ap-
ply loan funds towards perennial, vine and
root stock for blueberries, raspberries and
blackberries and/or trellising and netting
for small fruits.
The third section of the revolving loan
program is for GAP and food safety up-
grades such as drip irrigation, water treat-
ment, irrigation wells, compost structures
and equipment, harvesting supplies and
packing house structures.
Additionally, the Revolving Loan Pro-
gram includes an incentive for borrowers
in good standing, forgiving 20 to 25 per-
cent of the loan amount due at the end of
the loan term (by foregoing the final one-
quarter of amortizing loan payments).
Watson-Hampton said the three new

will be turned into a parking lot.
The 10,000-square-foot building re-
quires a maximum of 54 parking spaces;
42 are proposed. A Dollar General repre-
sentative said the company considers 35 to
be sufficient. He said store shoppers dont
stay in them very long, leading to a cus-
tomer turnover and not as much need for
parking.
The unresolved issues will have to be
dealt with before final site plan approval,
which is done administratively by LUGM.
Meanwhile, the planning commission
unanimously approved the concept plan
for the new store.

programs, along with the Regional Agri-
cultural Program (RAP) grant announced
last week, complement SMADCs mis-
sion to promote market-driven and prof-
itable agriculture businesses in Southern
Maryland. Farmers in Southern Mary-
land have already overcome production
challenges while transitioning away from
tobacco. Our focus now is to help them to
enhance, expand and diversify their op-
erations, so that we can promote a thriv-
ing regional agricultural economy. said
Watson-Hampton.
Applications for the Mini-Grant Pro-
gram open on July 10, 2017 and must be
submitted online on the Farm Grants
page under Farmer Resources at www.
smadc.com. Mini-grant applications are
accepted year round, but only reviewed on
a quarterly basis in January, April, July,
and October.
To qualify for the Southern Maryland
Agricultural Equity Incentive Matching
Fund, producers should follow MAR-
BIDCOs regular application process for
the program of interest. Matching funds
will be considered in the application pro-
cess and applied to approved loans for
farmers residing and doing business in
the five-county Southern Maryland Re-
gion. Producers interested in the Southern
Maryland Revolving Loan Fund should
apply directly through MARBIDCO at
marbidco.org.

The Declining Consequence of Sports
In his book Queer, Williams S. Bur-
roughs wrote, What happens when there is
no limit? What is the fate of The Land Where
Anything Goes? Considering national and
world events since last fall, a running scroll
of unfortunate chaos, it feels like Bur-
roughss questions are about to be answered.
By any apolitical, objective assessment,
the last six months have been unsettling.
Anything can be said about anyone. The
quality of the nations health care appears
secondary to a political score. With incon-
venient scientists and scientific fact system-
atically removed from the record, environ-
mental stewardship has been disregarded.
International relations are both strained and
unrecognizable long-time friends are on
the fritz; long-time foes are flirting. The na-
tions intelligence community is under a con-
founding internal attack. All news is fake;
all media not stroking The Administrations
massive and fragile ego are lying swine. The
draw of Twitter at 3 a.m. is contributing to
nationwide insomnia. Every day brings a
new crisis - some real, much contrived. Re-
cent history is being obliterated; the future is
a coin flip. The truthits whatever it needs
to be at any given moment.
Ah, but what does it matter? Anything
goes. Right then. So it does.
In these equally bizarre and historic times,
the role of sports and their social utility is
difficult to place. The games we watch have
traditionally been a definitive respite, a place
where people of different backgrounds and
political persuasions unite to celebrate victo-
ries, mourn defeats and generally escape the
grind of lifes responsibilities. For doubters
of sports magical ability to bridge deep per-
sonal chasms, consider this: During the 1968
Presidential campaign, Hunter S. Thompson,
sworn Richard Nixon antagonist, scored a
private meeting with the future president
why?...because Thompson, like Nixon, was a
great connoisseur of pro football and Nixon,
knowing this, apparently needed a moment
to relax and converse with someone of equal
pigskin intellect.
But now it is all so confusing. Would it
occur to Donald Trump to chat with Rachel
Maddow if he knew she loved football and
shared Trumps failed vision for the defunct
USFL? I think not. Where oh where has the

charm of this one-time ultimate and all-
welcoming Garden of Eden gone? Is it still
there, unspoiled by an acrimonious world
that in any other forum demands we take
sides, dismiss numerous similarities and
obsess over our differences? And are sports
capable of promoting social change, as it
did when Jackie Robinson took the field for
the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947 or as they do
more subtlety today by achieving workforce
diversity that should be the envy of corporate
America? Im willing to consider it. Id rather
conclude that sports hasnt changed and that
everything else around them has.
Whatever the truth, sports ability to bind
society and demand its best feels diminished.
In every moment of crisis over the last 100
years, through wars, presidential assassina-
tions, the Civil Rights movement and terror-
ist attacks, sports werent just games being
played; they mattered psychologically,
socially and historically. Now, in the world
where anything goes, they are just there,
seemingly along for the ride and hesitant
to influence the vector of this pivot point in
history.
Do I expect athletes to become swarming
political activists? No, but I expect more than
what has been delivered. I expect more from
Kevin Durant than immature and meaning-
less Twitter wars with trollers. I expect more
from the NBA than giving LaVar Ball and
his Big Baller Brand endless screen-time.
I expect more from Tom Brady than chan-
neling Terrell Owens I love me some me
sideline rant, and writing a book on how to
be likeTom Brady.
Is some of that entertaining? Is it safe?
Personally beneficial? Yes, but it is also di-
minishing and inconsequential in a time of
great consequence. Edward Murrow once
said, We must not confuse dissent with
disloyaltywhen the loyal opposition dies, I
think the soul of America dies with it. Pro-
fessional sports used to be part of that loyal
opposition. Maybe the money and the life-
style are so good now that athletes are con-
tent just being athleteseven if it kills a little
of Americas soul.

 14 Education
CSM Math Professor Honored with Award
Sandy Poinsett remembers taking her
first math class at Indiana University in the
late 1960s. She stepped into her Calculus I
classroom and was faced with a sea of men.
Out of the more than 200 students in the
course, there was only one other female
student along with Poinsett.
The two of us sat in the front row, Poin-
sett said, smiling at the memory. We were
motivated. We were both very focused.
And I think we ended up getting some of
the best grades.
Poinsett, a longtime math professor at
the College of Southern Maryland (CSM),
tells this story and others to illustrate the
inequity she has seen and experienced in
math education during her career. Poin-
sett has worked hard at CSM to change
that inequity where women are concerned.
But her passion for math education doesnt
end with womens inclusion. Her teaching
style in the classroom is designed to help
students of both sexes find math approach-
able. I want to make math great again,
she said.
It is for these efforts that Poinsett was
honored this year with the CSM Faculty
Excellence Award, an annual award honor-
ing one member of the colleges permanent
faculty. Poinsetts award was announced at
the colleges spring commencement cer-
emony May 18 at the La Plata Campus.
Its a big shock, she said of the honor,
adding that winning the award might be
the thing she is most proud of from her ca-
reer, which spans 20 years teaching math at
CSM, 40 years as a private math tutor and
three years as a high school math teacher.
Poinsett grew up in Fort Wayne, Indiana,
at a time when girls were expected to grow
up to be a teacher, a nurse, a mom or a sec-
retary, she said.
I had an extremely high math SAT
score, and no one said to me, Hey, why
dont you consider engineering or archi-
tecture? As a first-generation college stu-
dent, she said her world was narrow. Her
ideas about what she could pursue were
already limited, and the subtle and not-so-
subtle messages that others communicated
about women in math-related fields were
not encouraging.
When Poinsett began teaching at CSM
in 1997 and especially when she started
teaching calculus in 2002, she could see
that the world hadnt changed very much
from her years back at Indiana University.
I was still only seeing one girl out of 30
students, she said.
This is when Poinsett became an advo-
cate. My goal was just to make sure young
women were aware of the opportunities
available if they were good at math.
Professor Tom Seremet, a longtime CSM
colleague, says that Poinsett has been suc-
cessful in this. She has changed the play-
ing field, he said. What shes done is help
give young women the confidence and mo-
tivation to take math.
In 2004, Poinsett was awarded grant
funding from the Association of Women in
Mathematics to start, with the help of Asso-
ciate Professor Donna Sperry, the Women +
Math program at the college. Now, with as-
sistance from both Professor Dr. Stephanie
McCaslin and Adjunct Faculty Kim Lukas,
the program has expanded into Women +
STEM. With continuing support from the
CSM Foundation, the program includes an
annual conference where women in math-
related and similar fields like engineering
speak to young women about their career
path and the opportunities available. Its
The County Times Thursday, July 13, 2017
all about exposure to what is possible and
inspiration for the younger women. For
instance, this year the conference featured
Lt. Rebecca Shaw, a test pilot for the U.S.
Navy, as the keynote speaker.
Seremet credits this and Poinsetts re-
lated efforts as the cause for a remarkable
change in higher level math classes at CSM,
he said. In the past, it was pretty much all
boys in the advanced math classes. Now
theres as many girls, Seremet said. And
with confidence and energy, those girls are
achieving every bit as much as the boys.
This year, for instance, CSMs outstanding
math and engineering awards were both
given to young women.
Poinsett agrees change is happening, al-
beit slowly. She sees the more even ratios
in her classes in recent years, she said, but
notes that, even still, in her most advanced
classes like Calculus III, women comprise
only about 20 percent of the class.

Poinsett uses a variety of techniques to
help her students achieve success. Students
are assigned concept quizzes, which are
pre-lecture quizzes on material that will be
talked about in class. These give students a
chance to familiarize themselves with the
new vocabulary and concepts before hear-
ing about them in class.
Poinsett has developed a technique de-
signed to help students who failed or re-
ceived a D on the first test. These students
complete a reflection paper about their
preparation for the test, are allowed to
make corrections on the test and then must
visit her in her office to discuss these.
Finally, Poinsett assesses students as
they work on examples. She walks around
the room checking their answers, and giv-
ing them clues about where they went
wrong if their answer is incorrect. She says
this assessment gives her a sense of who is
understanding and who is struggling and
gives students immediate feedback.
Overall, her goal is to stimulate my stu-

ing them prepare to meet the ever-changing
needs of their communities now and in the
future.
When the Faculty Excellence Award was

Leonardtown Fire Company Takes Top
Honors at State Competition
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
It was the 125th convention of the Mary-
land State Firemens Association and the
volunteers at the Leonardtown Volunteer
Fire Department were aiming to make
their mark on the competition for best fire
company overall.
They did and in so doing ensured that a
St. Marys County fire company took that
top honor three years running.
Last year Mechanicsvilles fire compa-
ny took the best overall award and the year
before that the Hollywood volunteers took
the top honors in that category.
It took many nights of hard work and
just as many volunteers to get the 10 appa-
ratus ready for the competition being held
all the way out in Ocean City last month.
Not only did they have to clean, wax and
polish them but they had to make sure they
were fully equipped and in top operating
order.
Theyre judging not just on appear-
ance, said Thomas Mattingly, Jr., fire
company president. Theres a certain
amount of discipline involved.
Your apparatus has got to be in tip-top
shape and in a state of readiness.
Leonardtowns performance was so
good it took home a total of 14 trophies
at various places in the competition; at the
top was the coveted Chief Marvin Gib-

Department
bons Memorial Award.
They received honors for their marching
units, fire prevention teams (which placed
at the top and won the Governors Award)
as well as for individual apparatus such as
their brush fire unit, which also received
top honors in their category.
The companys special unit section also
got an award for best appearance at the
parade.
Each fire company entering the parade
was different, Mattingly said, since their
geographical location often dictated just
what kind of apparatus they had.
More rural companies, such as Leon-
ardtown, had more tanker trucks and ap-
paratus that were able to draw water from
ponds, Mattingly said, since they could
not depend as much on urban fire hydrants.
The apparatus in each company tells a
story, Mattingly said.
Going into the competition they
knew they would be facing formidable
companies.
Its not the easiest thing to do, Mat-
tingly told The CountyTimes. For the
most part its the Eastern Shore companies
that win it.
Those fire companies have a much
shorter distance to travel, he said, making
it easier to prepare.

Lt. Sam Wernecke, who took part in the
competition parade, said they had to wash
all the apparatus again when they arrived
in Ocean City after a four-hour trip after
spending hours getting them ready here
across the Chesapeake Bay.
You cant miss anything, Wernecke
said of getting ready for the competition.
You have to have your ducks in a row.
Though they were in a parade, the ap-
paratus had to be in such a high state of
readiness that they could be called upon to
serve in the event of a disaster that over-
whelmed local first responders.
If there were an absolute disaster over
there we wouldve been ready, Wernecke
said.
This was the first time in recent memo-
ry that Leonardtown had gone all out to be
contender in the competition, Wernecke
said, and they had high hopes going in.
When they watched the competition
from numerous other fire companies from
all over the state they began to see that
they and the fire company from Easton,
always a top contender, would likely be
the top two outfits.
We pretty much knew it was us and
Easton and when they awarded Easton
second best appearance we said Weve
got this in the bag, Wernecke said. Its

pretty huge because wed never won it.
Robert Lee Trossbach took part in the
parade march as did his son and grand-
daughter she won honorable mention in
the Junior Miss Fire Prevention category
but was not sure the company would
win the top prize.
As a veteran of the company for 48
years, the outfit had never really attempt-
ed to win, but this year saw the younger
members of the department make the ef-
fort, he said.
Wed won the Southern Maryland
[Volunteer Firemens Assocation] trophy
and a lot of the younger guys were push-
ing for it, said Trossbach. They wanted
to go for it.
After nearly a half-century of service,
he was happy to see his company finally
reach the top.
It was a great accomplishment, Tross-
bach said. Morale has always been good
and everybody here has a job to do [but
after winning the trophy] its maybe just a
little bit better.

Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum and Historic
St. Marys City Celebrate Partnership
Local and state officials visited the
Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museums St.
Michaels campus Friday, July 7, to cele-
brate a new partnership between CBMM
and the Historic St. Marys City Commis-
sion. Speakers at the event included Ad-
elaide Eckardt, Maryland state senator;
Johnny Mautz, Maryland state delegate;
Jeannie Haddaway-Riccio; deputy chief of
staff for Governor Larry Hogan; and Fa-
ther William George, board chairman of
the Historic St. Marys City Commission.
The two organizations will pool their
expertise to design and construct the next
iteration of Maryland Dove, a replica of
the late 17th century traading ship that
brought the first settlers to what is now
Maryland.
This is a unique opportunity, a very
historic opportunity as we bring together
two of our wonderful highlights, both
from the Eastern Shore and Southern
Maryland, Edkardt said. We work to-
gether with a lot of initiatives but this is
a new pioneering ground where we bring
together our deep, rich history, our cultur-
al background, and our trades and crafts.
Were going to be very excited to see how
it moves forward and to be a model, to be

the template, for where we want go in the
future with Maryland.
Built in a shipyard near Cambridge,
Md. in 1978, Maryland Dove is owned by
the state of Maryland and operated and
maintained by the Historic St. Marys City
Commission.
HSMC and CBMM are natural part-
ners in this project, said Regina Faden,
executive director at Historic St. Marys
City. It fulfills both our missions and
delivers a new Dove to tell the story of
(early) Maryland.
Maryland Dove is Historic St. Marys
Citys floating ambassador and one of its
most popular exhibits. The ship design is
based on the original Dove that sailed to
the Maryland colony with the Ark in 1634.
The Dove was a small ship used in shallow
waterways along the coast while the first
colony and capital was being established.
This is a true Maryland project, and
one were thrilled to be involved with,
said CBMM President Kristen Greenaway.

With 2017 marking the centennial mile-
stone of the United States entry into World
War I, the Southern Maryland Studies Cen-
ter (SMSC) is taking the opportunity to hon-
or the sacrifices of local soldiers who risked
their lives and to remember the wars impact
on the region.
Anna Kephart, SMSC coordinator at the
College of Southern Marylands La Plata
Campus, worked with student assistant
Shray Spriggs and volunteer Anita Gordon
to create a World War I traveling exhibit for
Southern Maryland. The exhibit is made up
four panels that include information about
what Southern Maryland was like during the
World War I years (1917-1919) and Southern
Marylanders who supported the war effort
both at home and in the military.
While working on this project, it was
very moving to learn about Southern Mary-
landers contributions, patriotism and sacri-
fices, Kephart said. We have made an ef-
fort to highlight these unique and personal
stories as much as possible in the exhibit. I
believe that by viewing the exhibit, people
will gain a greater appreciation for how
the war impacted peoples lives, and how

Tickets are now on sale for the annual
Art Blooms Gala at Annmarie Sculpture

2017 from 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm. This years
event promises to be an exciting evening of
celebration showcasing spectacular floral
designs inspired by current gallery exhib-
its; Escape: Art on Vacation and Spectacu-
lar Skies. The Art Blooms Gala is co-host-
ed by the Calvert Garden Club and Anns
Circle, Inc. of Annmarie Garden. The fes-
tive evening of art, music, food by an array
of local and regional caterers, silent auc-
tion, live music and a cash bar, promises to
be a night to remember.
Inspired by selected individual works
of art, floral designers from the Calvert
Garden Club are challenged to create ar-
rangements. The results will be a dazzling
array of over 35 creative designs on display.
Guests will have a fun photo opportunity
upon their red carpet arrival, courtesy of

nards Catering/Ruddy Duck; Charles Street

ing; Maryland Country Caterers; Mission

sweet and savory tastings including a patio-
involved our regions citizens were in sup-
porting the war effort. We can honor the sac-
rifices that our citizens made 100 years ago
and explore what the region was like during
the time period.
The exhibit educates the public on local
citizens who served in the war as well as the
various roles that they served in. This piece
of history celebrates the service of citizens
and gives a firsthand experience of what it
was like during those times. Much of the re-
search was collected from historic newspa-
pers and articles. The articles were primar-
ily found in the Times-Crescent and the St.
Marys Beacon newspapers, but additional
articles came from other regional titles. The
SMSC exhibit will be moved to many dif-
ferent facilities and organizations at their
request and is currently on display at the
Maryland Veterans Museum at Patriot Park
in Newburg.
Of the 1,426 Southern Marylanders who
fought in World War I, 44 lost their lives.
In addition, the exhibit looks at the invalu-
able efforts of Southern Marylanders on the
home front to support the war.

held this Saturday, July 15 and

p.m. and a second block of mov-
ies from 7:00 9:00 p.m. Tickets
are $3.00 per person per showing,
or $5.00 for a ticket that is good
for the entire evening.
Event Organizers are encour-
aging adults to come for the en-
tire event. Family-friendly does
not mean we are showing 2 hours
of cartoons states SMFF Steer-
ing Committee member Bill Stea,
with a chuckle. While we would
like to encourage more animators
to send us their work for the 2018
Festival, these movies simply
have great content without any
objectionable language or adult

that some of these projects were
also created and lmed by local
artists under the age of 18. The
second block of lms is being
shown separately due to some
mild profanity, alcohol and drug
references, violence, and mature
issues like gender identity and the
loss of a child.
Films vary in length, with noth-
ing longer than about 30 minutes.
The event would make a unique
date night, says Stea, You get
to see movies made right here in
the Tri-County area, with pro-
vocative topics to discuss on the
ride home. Weve even allotted
an hour for intermission to allow
time to purchase food and drink

Drinking from the Stanley Cup
You know how you meet certain people,
and things just click, and before long you
cant seem to remember a time when they
werent there? They become woven into
the fabric of your days, and if you think
about your life without their presence in
it, it seems emptier, boring, changed in all
sorts of waysand none of them positive?
Before I go on, let me say that I dont
write about my love life here. First, I cant
imagine it would be of any interest. But,
the other reason is simple: some things
should be private. Having said that, how-
ever, I also have to say this: this love af-
fair of mine has become so central, so
all-consuming, that I cant keep it a secret
anymore.
Thats just how it is, with me and the
Pittsburgh Penguins. One day, I was just
living my regular life, and the next, it
seemed, everything had changed. Sudden-
ly I was analyzing the chances that Kris
Letang would recover in time for the Stan-
ley Cup nals (he did), or whether Flower
(Marc-Andre Fleury) or Muzz (Matt Mur-
phy) would be guarding the net (mostly
Muzz, but Flower lled in and was essen-
tial to the win).
I blame most of this on Baby Ben. He
plays in several pick-up hockey leagues,
both here and in West Virginia at school,
and he follows the Penguins religiously.
This past spring, as the team advanced
closer and closer to the Stanley Cup -
nals, I discovered that the surest-re way
to guarantee time together was to settle
in and watch a hockey game together
either in person, if he was home, or long
distance, by texting throughout the game.
WooHOOOO became my favorite text,
since thats the message that accompanied
every goal.
It quickly became more than just back-
ground noise or action on the television,
though: almost instantly, I was drawn into
the game itself. Its fast and relentless and

Charles Llewellen
Charles Llewellen (1758-1797), son of
John Llewellen and Mary Jordan, mar-
ried Elizabeth Betsy Hammersley (Bef.
1766-1811), daughter of William Hammer-
sley and Mary Brooke (?) prior to 1788.
They lived in the vicinity of Bushwood.
The couple had ve children, two of
whom (Henry and Jane) died October
20, 1808. Three grew to adulthood. They
were John who married Mary Elizabeth
Booth (daughter of Jeremiah Booth and
Ann Nancy Walker) on January 4, 1825
and died November 24, 1826; William H.
Llewellen who died single on March 5,
1834; and Mary Polly Llewellen who
was born ca1789 (see below).
Elizabeth Betsy (Hammersley)
Llewellen made a will just prior to her
death. If there are not sufcient funds
to pay my debts, Negroes Jannet and
Louisa are to be sold. Daughter: Mary my
carriage, horses and Negroes Betty, So-
phia, and Bob. To: Reverend Ignatius B.
Brooke, $50. To: Reverend Leonard Edel-
en, $50. Son: John Negroes Molly, Henri-
etta, Nan, and Joe. Son: William Negroes
Nancy, Old Joe, Mark, and Harry. Exec.:
Son, John. Wit: Henry Hammersley, Wil-
liam H. Plowden, Henry Neale.
On December 21, 1812, a little over a
year after her mothers death, Mary Pol-
ly Llewellen took her vows as a nun and
assumed the name of Sister Pulcheria of
the Assumption.
Miss Llewellin was very beautiful, and
heiress to a large fortune. When she rst
made known her intention of becoming a
nun, she met with great opposition from
her family, who were deeply attached to
her. By the grace of God she persevered
in her good resolutions, and overcame
all the obstacles to her vocationMiss
Llewellin arrived at Mount Carmel, ac-
companied by a number of chivalrous
young Marylanders, to whom, as she
entered the house of God, never more to
leave it, she bade a joyful farewell. They
were doubtless as much impressed with
the heroism of her sacrice, as had been
the young Spanish noblemen, with that of
Mary of Avila. Gods grace is powerful in-
deed. Sister Pulcheria gave herself gener-
ously to God, and became a most humble,
docile and mortied religious.
On the 8th of February, 1844, Sis-
ter Pulcheria of the Assumption, Mary
Llewellyn [sic], departed this life in the
54th year of her age. She was remark-
able for her gratitude to God for her holy
vocation. She suffered very much from a
cancerous tumor, and endured two severe
operations with great patience and forti-
tude. Sister Pulcheria was a most humble,
docile and mortied religious, ever care-
ful never to lose a moment of time. Even
in the last stages of her illness, she would
have herself propped up in bed that she
might work with her needle, and notwith-
standing her intense pain, continued to
employ herself in sewing until within a few
days of her death. She was very devout to-
wards the Blessed Virgin, St. Aloysius and
St. Mary Magdalen. She died strength-
ened by all the rites of Holy Church.
Thanks to Sister Miriam John for pro-
viding the religious information on Polly
Llewellen.
Nothing to do?
Plenty if you look.
I heard someone say again the other day,
that there is nothing to do in St. Marys
County. There are lots of things to do I
replied. We have everything here from
beautiful land surrounded by some of the
most famous waters in the world. There
is seafood, shopping, art, music, culture,
parks, farmswhat more do you need? bling oor, one recreation tumbling oor;
She said Better stores, more restaurants.
Gosh, what is left storewise or food wise
that we dont have? Is Prince Frederick,
La Plata, or Waldorf really that far away if
you want to get away? You can be in DC,
Baltimore, and Annapolis in less than two
hours from most points in St. Marys. The
Capital Clubhouse is great for rock climb-
ing, hockey, and skating.
Over the years, I have heard this said,
sometimes in reference to nothing to do
for kids. I dont know, I sure kept my sons
busy, maybe much to their chagrin, and
that was quite a few years ago. My young-
er son and step-children sure keep their
children active and involved too. they are
all on the go with sports, playgrounds,
museums, kayaking, swimmingthe list
goes on. Cant understand this attitude
myself. You just need to get out there and
do things. Read the local newspapers, on-
line facebook events, or local magazines
to nd more than you could ever be able
to do in a lifetime for kids and adults. The
senior centers have tons of great activities.
CSM and SMC, Parks and Recs, churches,
and scouting offer so many camp and class
Lexington Park has that great great
gymnastic center. From the Parks and
Recs website: The Gymnastics Center
is a 12,000 square foot facility with both
Recreational and Competitive equipment
to fully meet the needs of all gymnasts.
Amenities include: one competitive tum-
numerous balance beams, uneven bars,
vaulting apparatus, boys apparatuses, and
various training equipment. It also houses
a variety of equipment to entice the little
ones in the Parent and Tot programs.
I know, I am ranting, but every time I
hear that people are bored with our county,
I do get upset, and I am not even originally
from St. Marys County. My sons were
so busy from toddlers to teens that they
didnt have two seconds to think of get-
ting into mischief (that I know about) with
Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, music classes,
sports, and spontaneous adventures lling
their time. Plus I was usually a PTA Presi-
dent, Vice president, secretary, or weekly
volunteer so school mischief was hard for
them to get into too.
One thought I always had was that a
YMCA or YWCA would have been (or
would be) a great addition to the county;
somewhere teens could go for school and
career counseling, job training, and an ex-
tra place for group athletics. But maybe
we have that covered in other areas.
So, if you hear someone saying how
there is nothing to do in St. Marys Coun-

Pet of the Week

activities. Art classes are offered many
places like The Yellow Door in Leonard-
town for all ages. I know my husband and
I or any of our kids or grandkids rarely
have a time when there is nothing to do in
this area. Of course, it is nice to have those
ty, I hope you tell them that there is only
nothing to do if you dont get out there and
nd it. Have a great week, Im sure Ill see
you somewhere.
