Special Olympics of Maryland Fundraiser

Special Olympics of Maryland Fundraiser

Host: Westminster Police Dept.
Date: Saturday, October 3, 2009
Time: 12:00pm - 6:00pm
Location: Town Mall
Street: 400 N. Center Street
City/Town: Westminster, MD

A message from Westminster Police Chief Jeff Spaulding

Slush n slide with Chief Spaulding

Dear Friends:

The Westminster Police Department and Time Out Sports Grille will be co-hosting a great new event at Town Mall in Westminster on Saturday, October 3rd from noon to 6:00 p.m. to support my good friends at Special Olympics Maryland.

The event, called the “Slush ‘N Slide”, is an outdoor festival suitable for kids of all ages and it’s a great warm-up for the Polar Bear Plunge which will be here before we know it.

During the festival we will be making an attempt to set a record by building the world’s largest snowball (as in snow cone). Following our attempt, hearty souls – hereafter known as “Sliders” – will take a turn sliding down a 28-foot inflatable waterslide into our record-breaking creation.

BRRRRR!! The privilege of sliding is reserved for those that raise a minimum of $50 in pledges for Special Olympics. Yep, I’m there!!

In addition to the Slide there will be tons of great things to do. Carnival games, face painting, wing and watermelon eating contests – even a chance for one lucky slider to win a new Harley-Davidson motorcycle!

Live music will be provided by “The Reagan Years”, a regional 80’s band with a huge following. Great food will be available, as well as a beer garden for those adults in the crowd.

A variety of personalities will be on hand to include Mayor Kevin Utz (also a slider) and 98 Rock’s Theo, Stash and Sarah “The Queen” Fleischer. A $5 donation to Special Olympics is requested of all non-Sliders who wish to attend the festivities. More details about this incredible event are available on-line at http://www.slushnslide.com/.

Please consider joining me in supporting the incredible athletes of Special Olympics by becoming a Slider. You can register yourself or your team at http://www.slushnslide.com/.

If sliding into freezing water isn’t your thing (I sure wish it wasn’t mine), please consider supporting my slide by making a contribution on the Slush ‘N Slide website as follows:

· Once on the “http://www.slushnslide.com/” website, click on “Sponsor Slider”

· Type in my first and last name (Jeff Spaulding) and hit enter

· Select my name from the list provided

No contribution is too small and every dime is greatly appreciated. Your contribution is 100% tax-deductible and all of the money raised goes directly to the 10,000+ athletes of Special Olympic Maryland.

Revealing President Dwight “Ike” David Eisenhower

Revealing Ike by Kevin E. Dayhoff September 30, 2009

Click here for a larger image: http://twitpic.com/k2cji

Of all the presidents of the United States, the one which Frederick and Carroll Counties may have literally the closest connection is President Dwight David Eisenhower, known affectionately as “Ike.”

Just recently my family and I went on a history exploration trip to nearby Gettysburg to visit the new Gettysburg Battlefield visitors’ center and the Eisenhower National Historic Site, which is adjacent to the battlefield.

In years past, it would have been called a “day trip,” however, the term “staycation” has in recent years crept into our lexicon. Even the Merriam-Webster dictionary now recognizes the word to mean “a vacation spent at home or nearby.”

President Eisenhower lived on a farm and raised Black Angus cattle about 10 miles above the Maryland-Pennsylvania border.

Getting Drunk at The New York Times

September 28, 2009

Getting Drunk at The New York Times Gay Talese describes the tobacco-filled and liquor-drenched newsrooms of The New York Times in the sixties—where men passed out on typewriters, and no one was quite sure just how the paper actually got out.

Perplexing Situations… by Patricia A. Kelly

October 1, 2009 Perplexing Situations… Patricia A. Kelly:

“Writing a column is a very interesting occupation. It’s changed me. I’m more curious about the details of things, and in really looking for the truth among all the stories, charges, political posturing and innuendo. I work to insure there is truth behind my comments. I look for answers to dilemmas that face our society. Paying attention is exhausting, though, and the more you do it, the more discouraging things appear…”

From Sarah Abel DeLuca

Hello OTA Friends and Supporters,

In September I doffed my Off Track Art member hat to don a new one: that of #1 fan.

The OTA member hat was one that I was very proud and happy to wear, but when it became difficult to do justice to both my co-op commitments and my core artist activities -- commissioned painting and teaching -- I knew I had to let something go.

Fortunately, the decision was simple, though hardly easy. Capturing people's memories in paint (via commissioned painting) and helping them tap into their own artistic potential (via art classes) is not only my livelihood, it's my purpose in life. And I'm not actually losing anything by switching hats. As an OTA fan, I still keep in touch with my talented co-op friends, support their great venture, and mingle with the wonderful community of art lovers who make it all possible.

Thanks for your support and patronage, and I look forward to seeing you at OTA events! You can reach me at any time for commissioned paintings, classes (private or public), and speaking engagements:

Appetite for history and cuisine both satisfied in Union Bridge 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. http://explorecarroll.com/community/3324/eaglearchive/

My Sunday, September 20, 2009 Carroll Eagle Archives column - http://tinyurl.com/yca3non - was about visiting historic Silver Run on Sept. 11, 2009.

I ended the column by sharing that another one of the great pleasures in visiting Silver Run is, you guessed it, eating. And why not; Silver Run happens to be the home of one Carroll County’s elegant fine dining experiences, “Bud’s of Silver Run.”

Alaska Daily News: Julia O’Malley Hey Truck Dude, some things are best left in the garage

Hey Truck Dude, some things are best left in the garage

SEPTEMBER 27, 2009 http://community.adn.com/adn/node/143778

Dear Truck Dude,

You were the one on 15th Avenue about two weeks ago on a Friday. I pulled up behind you around Karluk Street. I had a headache. You had plastic man parts hanging from your tow hitch.

It might not have bothered me, as I have seen this kind of thing before, but it wasn't just you, it was also the dude next to you. And so I was trapped, staring into a vortex of swinging truck junk until the light changed.

My aching brain filled with one alarming thought: Is this going to be a trend now?

I mentioned your bumper ornament to a coworker a few days later. He said, "Oh, you mean TruckNutz." And so I Googled. It was a trend. The Nutz, which are widely available online, became a big thing last year during the presidential election after someone suggested Barack Obama get some so he could better relate to rural America. And a few states moved to ban them from the roads. They were kind of 2008, but like every other thing that becomes a thing Outside, it appeared they were catching on here 2000-late.
