Christmas Parade judging sheet results

November 29, 2008 4 pm

Judging criteria: Enthusiasm; creativity; community; holiday spirit and theme.

Judges: Judy Clippart, Jen Mace, and Kevin Dayhoff

Judges’ stand courtesy of Harry’s Main Street Grille

It was a great parade.  As with any great community effort, determining one particular “winner” in each category was so difficult because everyone; the performers, the parade crowd and the community were all winners.  What a great way to ring-in a Westminster Christmas.

Best Float: Wish Group – The judges liked the white Christmas trees and the beautiful unique design of the float.

Best Vehicle: Gismos old Ford pickup was a crowd favorite.  We liked the old antique car with the Christmas tree in the back.  It reminded us of Christmases-past in Westminster.

Best Animal Entry: We really liked the Mason Dixon Bernese Mountain Dogs.  They were cute and adorable, well behaved and we marveled at how they stayed in good order.

Just for Fun: Westminster Ridge:  The float showed lots of hard work and thoughtfulness.  They were enthusiastic and generous with the crowds.

Best Children’s Group: The Boys and Girls Club:  They were so enthusiastic, energetic, and fun to watch.  Besides, they did “double-dutch” jump rope right in front of the judges’ stand…

Best Walking Group: We really liked the Sugar Plum Fairies.  The costumes were beautiful and they really brought visions of Christmases-past to mind.  They also seemed to be having a really good time and were full of smiles.

Committee’s Choice: North Carroll Community School: We liked the costumes.  They showed lots of effort, organization, and enthusiasm.

Honorable Mentions: 1. We really liked Silvia’s Acorn.  Besides the fact that it was great car, we liked the cute costumes, especially the acorn hats. 

2. We also liked the fabulous costumes great Christmas spirit and wonderful performance of the Monumental Drum and Fife Corps.

3. We would be remiss if we did not be sure to give an honorable mention to the great Christmas spirit and hospitality of Harry’s Main Street Grille.

That Holiday Glow

Westminster plugs into the season with first-ever Holiday Electric Parade

By Katie V. Jones Posted 11/22/09



On the evening of Nov. 28, the streets of Westminster will be aglow to greet the holiday season as some 50 floats — each with more than 2,000 lights — travel down Main Street as part of the city's first-ever "Holiday Electric Parade."

The parade is expanding on the Westminster tradition of hosting a Christmas parade, followed by a tree lighting.

The idea of adding the element of an "electric light parade" had been suggested by Eileen Gist, a volunteer, for years, and she's thrilled to see it come to light.
"They call me the 'electric chair,' " Gist laughed.

[…]

Watching Lori Graham, a parade organizer, create lighted lamp posts out of bird feeders for a float that will carry Mayor Kevin Utz and the Common Council…

[…]

From midday to night, Nov. 28 will feature a variety of events, starting with a children's carnival in the parking lot off Locust Lane at 1 p.m., and a showing of Laurel and Hardy movies at the Carroll Arts Center at 2:30 p.m.

The Wishbone Mile benefit run will be held at 4:45 p.m., and the Holiday Electric Light Parade will begin at 5 p.m., starting at Pennsylvania Avenue and proceeding down Main Street to Longwell Avenue.

The tree lighting will be held at the conclusion of the parade, at Locust Lane. From there, children and their families are invited to the Westminster Family Fitness Center on Longwell, where the city's Recreation and Parks Department will host "Santa's Treat," a party for children.

Many local businesses will also stay open late for "Starlight Shopping."  http://www.explorecarroll.com/news/3643/glow/

Election Day Food Drive to support Carroll County Food Sunday


Election Day Food Drive to support Carroll County Food Sunday


http://kevindayhoff.blogspot.com/2010/10/election-day-food-drive-to-support.html



  

PRESS RELEASE October 25, 2010

For Immediate Release
Contact: Martin Radinsky 443-520-7750

Westminster, MD - October 25, 2010 –

This election, Carroll County is going to continue a unique tradition started with the November 2008 election.

Martin Radinsky, Frank Baylor, Kelly Buie, Bob Mitchell, David and Laura O’Callaghan have once again organized the election day food drive during the upcoming Maryland General Election on November 2, 2010 to support Carroll County Food Sunday.

Our goal is, with volunteer support, to have staffed collection boxes at the polling places, respecting all electioneering laws.

The community service event will be conducted in a non-partisan fashion and volunteers will be asked not to engage in political activity while collecting for Carroll County Food Sunday.  We welcome the support from all organizations, political clubs, candidates, and political parties in helping to feed our neighbors in need in Carroll County.

Radinsky said that in November 2008, Carroll County voters filled seven 150-cubic foot containers with donated food.

“We want to build (the food collection effort) into a Carroll County habit for elections in the future,” said Radinsky.  “When and where else in Carroll County are you going to get 50,000 (people) in one place…?  If only half of all the voters in Carroll County brought one can of food each; that’s 25,000 cans of food….”

Radinsky said that every candidate with whom he has spoken has been very supportive of the Carroll County voter food drive.  Hopefully all the candidates will take the opportunity to spread the word.

Election Day is a wonderful day to celebrate being an American.  Bringing along a can of food will help make sure that no one in our community goes hungry. 

Should you wish to volunteer to assist in this community service project please email Martin Radinsky at maradinsky@comcast.net or call 443-520-7750.

Carroll County Food Sunday will offer "Community Service Hours" for any student wishing to volunteer their time.

Carroll County Food Sunday distributes from the following county sites - WESTMINSTER: from 10 to 11:15 am and 1 to 2:15 pm, Tuesday through Thursday, and 9 am to 11:30 am, Saturday at 10 Distillery Drive (ground floor). TANEYTOWN: from 9:30 to 11:15 am, Thursday at St. Joseph's Catholic Church, 44 Frederick Street. SYKESVILLE: from 10 am to noon, Wednesday at St. Joseph's Catholic Church, Freedom Avenue and Liberty Roads. This organization is run by volunteers, and is always in need of additional volunteer help. Donations of money and/or food are gladly accepted.

Hunger, election, canned food, Carroll County
