Carroll County celebrates the Fourth





Carroll County celebrates the Fourth

Monday, 05 July 2010

By Kevin Dayhoff

All photos by Kevin Dayhoff - Carroll County celebrates the Fourth by Kevin Dayhoff July 4, 2010

Carroll County celebrated the Fourth of July at the Carroll County Farm Museum.

As the temperatures soared in the 90s, the celebrations began at 12 noon at the Farm Museum, 500 S. Center St., Westminster, with music that included the U.S. Navy Band “Country Current,” Carroll Jazz Singers, Carroll County Cloggers, the Elderly Brothers Quartet; a mule-pulled wagon tour of the grounds, crafts, and food.

Later in the evening at 9:30 p.m, the skies over the Farm Museum pond lit-up to everyone’s delight as fireworks soared in to the night sky to celebrate the Fourth in a grand style.

Thousands jammed into the Farm Museum and the adjacent Agriculture Center grounds to view the show.

Lara Bruckmann, a lyric soprano classical opera singer, sang the national anthem during the opening ceremonies for roller derby skating bout between the local Chesapeake Roller Derby team, “Mutiny,” and the South Jersey Derby Girls last Saturday evening, January 23, 2010, at the Danele Shipley Memorial Arena at the Carroll County Ag Center in Westminster. photo by Kevin Dayhoff January 23, 2010.

The opera singer waits in the wings

January 23, 2010 by Kevin Dayhoff


The local Chesapeake Roller Derby team, “Mutiny” defended the ship well, but it was the South Jersey Derby Girls who staged the mutiny last Saturday evening at the Danele Shipley Memorial Arena at the Carroll County Ag Center in Westminster and took the flag.

Reinforcing the opera component of the drama of the skating event at the arena last Saturday evening, January 23, 2010, was Lara Bruckmann, a lyric soprano classical opera singer, who sang the national anthem during the opening ceremonies.

Bruckmann, whose skater name is “Doris Day of Reckoning,” also skates with the Junkyard Dolls with the Charm City Roller Girls. She said, “our opener is Saturday, January 30 at the Du Burns Arena in Canton, Baltimore.

I haven’t figured how to use my voice as a weapon on the track yet because I become too winded from skating,” said Bruckmann with a wry smile.

Bruckmann added, “One of the things that makes (local) roller derby so effective as a grass roots is there are so many of the skill sets required represented by all the professionals who skate in the leagues. We have graphic artists, lawyers, nurses…” and it’s all good family fun.

For more information as to the rules and intricacies of roller derby, be sure to read Explore Carroll writer, Charles Schelle’s “Shipwrecked in a concrete jungle,” and “Mutiny at the Ag Center” in the January 17 Carroll Eagle.
