EAGLE ARCHIVE By Kevin Dayhoff Posted 8/23/09

Recently I have had the opportunity to travel several times to the western reaches of our fare county and one of my favorite destinations, Union Bridge.

It's a great drive through the beautiful Carroll countryside, and once you arrive in Union Bridge you find yourself in a community steeped in tradition and history. It's always fun to take a walk on its historic Main Street, lined with older homes, and eat at the Buttersburg Inn.

Of course, truth be told, history is only one reason for my love of Union Bridge. Eating is another.

Sophia Litrenta raised $2,000 for the city's Mounted Police Patrol.


A tight city budget is threatening the historic Baltimore Police Mounted Patrol Unit, which needs $150,000 to stay open.

At the crack of dawn Thursday morning, Mike Schuh met with Police Commissioner Frederick Bealefeld to give an exclusive look at how a 9-year-old girl stepped up to help.

Thursday will be a day third grader Sophia Litrenta will always remember. But it's what she's done that will be remembered by many.

Sophia set up a lemonade stand to raise money for Baltimore City's Mounted Police.

[…]

Sophia took in more than $2,000 in just two hours at her lemonade stand.

[…]

The Mounted Patrol Unit is the longest continuously-running unit in the entire country. It has been in action since 1888.

Sophia's parents say they will continue to collect money and turn all the donations over to police.

Eunice Kennedy Shriver remembered

Eunice Kennedy Shriver remembered for founding the Special Olympics

Sunday August 16, 2009 by Kevin Dayhoff

Some folks have asked where they may find my tribute to Eunice Kennedy Shriver, “Shriver remembered for Special Olympics and also for a connection to Carroll that appeared my Carroll Eagle Archives column on Sunday August 16, 2009

So I thought what I would do is post the long version which is unedited to meet word limit…

Last Tuesday, Eunice Kennedy Shriver, died at a hospital on Cape Cod surrounded by several generations of her large family. She was 88 years old.

Inspired by her sister, Rosemary Kennedy, who was born mentally retarded, Shriver founded the Special Olympics in 1968 for persons with intellectual disabilities.

As a child, Rosemary and Eunice Kennedy are reported to have spent a great deal of time together swimming and sailing. Rosemary died in 2005.

Shriver earned a sociology degree from Stanford University in 1943 and subsequently worked as a social worker at a prison for women in Alderson, W. Va, and the juvenile courts system in Chicago, before she took over the philanthropic foundation named after her brother, Joseph P. Kennedy, Jr., who had been killed fighting in WW II.

Throughout her lifetime received numerous awards for her work with children. In 1962, when no one spoke in public about the mentally handicapped, Shriver broke the ice and turned on the light on the plight of the handicapped.

It was then that she “revealed her sister's condition to the nation during her brother's presidency in a 1962 article for the Saturday Evening Post,” according to a number of historical accounts of Shriver’s incredible life of service to our nation.

A year earlier, in 1961, President Kennedy “signed a bill she championed to form the first President's Committee on Mental Retardation,” according to news accounts.

Shriver was the fifth of nine children in the family of Joseph P. Kennedy and Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy. President John F. Kennedy and Sen. Robert F. Kennedy were two of her more famous brothers.

Many folks will also remember her as the mother of former NBC newswoman Maria Shriver; and the mother-in-law of California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

She married R. Sargent Shriver, from Willis Street in Westminster, in 1953. Sargent is a member of the historic Shriver family in Carroll County, known as community, political and business leaders; whose heritage has been, in part, preserved by the Union Mills Homestead.

He later became President Kennedy’s first director of the Peace Corps. He was also Sen. George McGovern's running mate in 1972, and ran for president himself in 1976. It is reported that the couple were very close and that she was an integral part of her husband’s political career.

However, it is through the Special Olympics that she will live on through the ages.

She was the daughter of a millionaire, the sister of a president and a U.S. Senator, and the mother-in-law of a governor; however she is best known for her tireless lifelong commitment to the mentally handicapped – and the Special Olympics.

Tovia Smith said it best on National Public Radio’s “All Things Considered:” Shriver “was born to one of America’s most powerful families but spent her life laboring for some of the least powerful.”

Woodstock: Hippy Dippy Stardust and Golden Memories




Hippy Dippy Stardust and Golden Memories by Kevin E. Dayhoff August 19, 2009

In case you missed all the recent over-hyped media coverage, forty years ago the weekend of peace, love, and revolution took place in the garden at Max Yasgur’s 600-acre farm in upstate New York.

For the past number of weeks, much of the media has waxed poetic about the self-aggrandizing maniacal mayhem which took place August 15-18, 1969 – the Woodstock Music and Art Fair in Bethel, N.Y.

A guy buys a box of old papers at a flea market. He’s a history buff, so he’s into that kind of thing. He gets the box home and sorts through it. Lo and behold, at the bottom of that stack is an envelope with Abraham Lincoln’s signature on it. Turns out, it could be the last thing President Lincoln ever signed.

The envelope says simply: “Let this man enter with this note. April 14, 1865. A. Lincoln.” From the Morning Journal of Northern Ohio:

On June 20, 2009 I was particular pleased to have been afforded the fine hospitality of Dan Hartzler, Union Bridge Mayor Brett Grossnickle, Carroll County Schools Superintendent Dr. Chuck Ecker and a number of other great folks for the unveiling and dedication of the historic 1900 Blue Ridge College bell in Lehigh Square at the annual Union Bridge “Depot Day.” (See: http://tinyurl.com/ko4dlh.)

That day, Mayor Grossnickle was literally all wet when I had a chance to chat with him and his lovely family – he had taken a tour of duty at one of the many entertainment opportunities that day, the dunk tank. Obviously some folks got lucky and provided the mayor with an opportunity to take a swim.
