Eagle Archive: Reflecting on Easter with grace and peace


Happy Easter. Grace and peace to you.

In Carroll County, the celebration of Easter has always had an emphasis on the religious aspects of the holiday. However, childhood thoughts of Easter in Carroll are also filled of memories of community Easter egg hunts and other community activities.

Some 65 years ago, the Venture Club of Westminster sponsored the annual hunt on Easter Sunday on the Westminster Playground. An article in the now defunct Democratic Advocate on March 26, 1948, offers an example of how various aspects of the community got into the Easter spirit: There was a concert by the Westminster Municipal Band; an invocation by Father William T. McCrory, assistant pastor of St. John Catholic Church; and City Councilman J. Albert Mitten served as master of ceremonies.

[…]

Another childhood memory is that all the church services and activities during Holy Week and Easter were observed with strict pomp and ceremony — as dictated by the ecclesiastical liturgists in the congregation.

I learned at a very young age that the difference between a terrorist and liturgist is you can negotiate with a terrorist. For those unaware of ways of the church, a liturgist is sort of like a "parliamentarian" — with an edge… http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/carroll/news/community/ph-ce-eagle-archive-0324-20130327,0,6902860.story

In an era when communities are increasingly turning to higher taxes and bigger government to provide quality of life services in a community; Carroll County still turns to the large number of volunteers and philanthropic groups in our community — which are supported by donations of time, talent and money, and not tax dollars.


The Rotary is among the stalwart examples of this attitude in Carroll. Club secretary Dr. Jim Lightner notes that at this month's Rotary event, Ober Herr, one the longest-serving members of the club, gave a brief presentation details the organization's rich history… http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/carroll/neighborhoods/westminster/ph-ce-eagle-archive-0324-20130320,0,3842909.story

Eagle Archive: There is no predicting the weather in March


Eagle Archive: There is no predicting the weather in March By Kevin E. Dayhoff, March 10, 2013 http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/carroll/news/ph-ce-eagle-archive-0310-20130306,0,2962803.story

Hopefully the snowfall earlier in the week is this winter’s last gasp. We always seem so surprised when it snows in March, however, throughout Carroll County history some of our most significant winter storms have occurred during March.

The weather in the month of March in Carroll County is just plain unpredictable at its best; although the troubled month may be best described by the diagnosis of multiple personality disorder.

Among the biggest ‘spring blizzards’ in Carroll County history; on March 29-30, 1942 it snowed 22.0 inches and on March 15-18, 1892, it snowed 16.0 inches.

Other notable March snowfalls include the Ash Wednesday storm of March 6-8, 1962 when around 10 inches of snow fell at Friendship Airport, now known as BWI.

Many can still remember the storm that hit the area on March 12-14, 1993 when 12 inches of snow fell in the Carroll County area.

In March of 1902, the county was still reeling from the mess caused by the winter storm of Feb. 21, 1902, when Carroll County experienced one of the worst ice storms to ever hit the area. The now out-of-print American Sentinel newspaper hailed it as “The Great Sleet Storm,” according to research by local historian – and MD State Senator, Joe Getty… http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/carroll/news/ph-ce-eagle-archive-0310-20130306,0,2962803.story

Birdie’s is the hot new coffee café on East Main Street in Westminster http://tinyurl.com/cezouhk


By Kevin Dayhoff kevindayhoff@gmail.com

Sherri Hosfeld Joseph sat with a sigh and a big smile.  “Hi.  How are ya?  How’s the coffee?”

To the delight of many a Main Street Westminster caffeine addict, Joseph had opened a coffee shop - Birdie’s Café - on July 13th in an historic brick building at 233 East Main Street.

After a run of about seven years, the coffee shop, The Pour House, which once called the local coffee café and restaurant space in the old stately colonial portion of Westminster, had abruptly ceased operations on November 12, 2008.

Its absence was the source of caffeine-deprived headaches and a blow to the eastern artistic and cultural mercantile bookend in Westminster which included the newly renovated Cockey’s addition to the Historical Society of Carroll County campus across the street and the Carroll Arts Center on the western end of town.

After months of hard work, Joseph was more than relieved to not only be open, but to also have plenty of customers perched upon the more than 40 seats nested amidst the stylishly hip décor, warm colors and artwork that served to compliment the coffee and tasty treats on the menu.

Joseph, a professional artist, designer, and photographer, was able to utilize much of the fixtures and equipment left behind almost two-years ago, however, she has worked since last January meticulously cleaning, painting, and planning and researching every detail for the shop with co-workers Danes Menges and Emily White

As Joseph shared smiles and accepted well wishes from friends and local artists Susan Williamson and Becki Maurio seated at the table, she explained that the Costa Rican coffee “is our own signature blend.  You cannot buy this coffee anywhere but here.”

“Dane and I spent a day in Pittsburg at the Iron Star Roasting Company researching and selecting this particular blend of coffee,” explained Joseph.

“I’m so excited and happy about finally getting opened, but I am so exhausted,” Joseph confided quietly as she smiled from ear to ear.

Outside the temperature was hot - approaching 100 degrees, but it was cool inside of Birdie’s on the coffee shop’s second day of flight, when Explore Carroll decided to stop for a look at the new business in town. 

Maurio said Birdie’s “is a fantastic place to meet friends.  And it’s a great collection of art…” she continued as she gazed about the room with a professorial eye.

Williamson spoke for many when she exclaimed “I’m ecstatic that Birdie’s nested on Main Street.  It’s important to – we need a coffee shop on Main Street.  And besides, Dane’s hot,” she mused with a wry mischievous grin.

Several customers, who were not feeling as bold as Williamson was about being identified, agreed – that Dane is hot – and oh, they liked the coffee too.

Jennifer Padrick, a customer from Westminster, sat totally engrossed in her book, “The Maze Runner,” “a young-adult dystopian science fiction trilogy by James Dashner.”  As she looked up from her book for a friendly but fleeting moment, she explained that she was a “domestic goddess…  I had a turkey sandwich.  It was good.  I was hungry.”  At that, she returned to her book… without missing a beat.

Life lived like a Hallmark movie.

“It (the café) is a Hallmark (greeting) card – I’m a Hallmark movie,” shared Joseph.

After graduating from Westminster High School in 1989, Joseph, a native of Carroll County could not wait to move out of town.  After a number of years attending school at the Rochester Institute of Technology, the Manhattan School of Visual Arts in New York City, and participating in the edgy arts and cultural scene in the Big Apple - Joseph could not wait to return home.

“I missed it…  I missed the traditions and values of Westminster,” said Joseph, as her son, Xavier, joined her at the table.

It’s a family business.

The café is named after her five-year-old daughter, Scarlett Tanager, explained Joseph, just as – as if on cue, Xavier, who was participating in theater camp that day, had stopped by the café for a break and to run errands with his Mom.  “I’m very proud of my Mother,” he said as he assessed his Mom being interviewed and encouraged his Mom to move on to the next task on her busy schedule.

No stranger to the Main Street business traditions in Westminster.

Upon her return to Westminster, Joseph worked as a professional fundraiser for fifteen years.  “One day I woke up and decided to shake up my life and start a business.”

At a time when longstanding venerable Main Street businesses are shuttering their shops and Westminster continues to recoil from an entrenched recession and suffer through a political period of widespread anti-business public policies; why on earth start a business at this time?

“I’ve thoroughly researched it.  I have a five-year business plan and I’ve got passion for the traditions of Main Street businesses…  My uncle owned The Flower Box for many years – I’m no stranger to business,” said Joseph confidently.

Customers Alex Stamm and Jenna Winegar, North Carroll High School graduates from Hampstead, were more than happy to take a break from their computer and answer a few questions.

Winegar, a dinner cruise ship photographer, explained that she had discovered on Facebook that Birdie’s was opening.  She immediately texted Alex, who works at Harley Davidson of Maryland as a technician and they could not wait to check it out.

“I love the atmosphere.  I love the layout,” said artist and photographer Winegar.  Alex added that they “came all the time when it was the Pour House.  I’m glad (Birdie’s) is open.”

At that point it was determined that interviewing the couple holding hands and gazing into each other’s eyes in the window seat might not be such a good idea.

However, whether it is love that is in the air, or for the love of art and ambience, or the love of community and coffee, Birdie’s is open for business.  Checking out the hot barista behind the counter is optional.

That will be a large hot coffee with a shot of express.  Make that two cups – one for Sherri.  She could use it.  Thank you very much.

Kevin Dayhoff Eagle Archive Mike Eaton inspired a love of Carroll living



In a 2009 edition of the Historical Society of Carroll County publication, Carroll Courier, there is a picture dated March 1, 1950, of 5-year old Sally Adams with her cocker spaniel, Ricky, in front of Hoffman's Inn, 216 E. Main St., Westminster.

The photo accompanied a first-hand personal account of life on East Main Street and at Hoffman's Inn, from 1945 to 1961. The property is now known as Historical Society's gift shop, the Shop at Cockey's.

Early history of the property, which dates back to the 1820s, is complicated and reads like a Victorian soap opera. Nevertheless, it's where a great deal of the planning and creation of Carroll County took place. After the county was formed, Cockey's served for many years as part of the seat of county government.

"In 1922 Frank and Mary Hoffman bought the building and it became Hoffman's Inn and Boarding House. It was inherited by their daughter and operated by Thelma Hoffman until 1969."


William Granville "Mike" Eaton lived on the third floor of Hoffman's Inn for many years. Eaton came to Westminster in 1926 to attend then-Western Maryland College, now McDaniel, where he graduated in 1930. It was in that year that he began his teaching career at Elmer A. Wolfe High School in Union Bridge… http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/carroll/neighborhoods/westminster/ph-ce-eagle-archive-0317-20130313,0,5153633.story
