Memorial service at McDaniel recalls Case as passionate educator, adventurer
Former McDaniel provost climbed in Nepal, ran in Alaska
More than 500 people took time from their Labor Day weekend to fill Big Baker Chapel at McDaniel College on Sept. 1, paying respects at a memorial service for the late Dr. Sam Case.
Former McDaniel provost climbed in Nepal, ran in Alaska

Case, 70, a longtime Westminster resident, died Aug. 22 at Carroll Hospice Center's Dove House in Westminster, from complications from leukemia
He was a respected and admired professor and coach, who taught human physiology and exercise science courses for nearly four decades at McDaniel College.
Before Case retired from McDaniel in 2004, he served as the school's provost for four years.
Case retired shortly after he was diagnosed with leukemia, a disease he faced with determination — and by going mountain climbing in Nepal.
Classmates, fellow professors, students, wrestlers, football players and distance runners attended the service. After a welcome by Case's son-in-law, James Ellison, colleagues including Dr. Alex Ober, Gary Scholl, Dr. Kathy Mangan, Dr. Sherri Lind Hughes and former McDaniel College President Joan Develin Coley offered tributes to Case.
Case's daughter, Lauren Case, said her dad had cautioned her, "I don't want people sitting around so keep it short."
The service only lasted 60 minutes - or enough time to have run six-miles… http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/baltimore-county/towson/ph-ce-case-obit-0909-20120908,0,3359179.story

Off Track Art is celebrating the art of Jerry DeWitt for its
first opening of the fall season on Friday, Sept. 7th, 2012 from
5:30--7:30, to show his beautiful watercolors from a variety of locales
including Carroll County.
Mr. DeWitt, a Smallwood, Carroll County Maryland artist, has
just returned from Montana and Michigan. Earlier in the year, this past March, Mr.
DeWitt was the featured artist in the Babylon Great Hall at Carroll Community
College. [http://kevindayhoffart.blogspot.com/2012/03/jerry-dewitt-discusses-his-farm.html]
The highly successful show was well-received and the opening was packed. It has
been reported that Mr. DeWitt sold a large number of painting at the Carroll
Community College show…
“Jerry DeWitt was born in Michigan in 1933 and has been
painting, primarily watercolors, since his teenage years,” according to
information provided by the artist…
“Over 300 paintings hang in homes and businesses from Alaska
to Florida. His work has been shown in galleries in Washington, DC; Montana;
and Maryland. Mr. DeWitt’s Montana paintings were featured in American Artist
magazine.
“Mr. DeWitt enjoys traveling, and has series of paintings
from Maine and from Frederick and Carroll Counties. His subjects are often old
farm buildings or homes, as he strives to capture and retain the spirit of American
places of the heart.
“Viewers may be drawn to tranquil scenes and transported to
a quieter, more peaceful time. He has a special affinity for birds and has
painted many species. Jerry has framed many of his paintings in old barn wood,
sometimes from the very site portrayed.
“Most notable of these paintings is his award-winning
portrait of the Wye Oak, framed in the wood from that famous tree.
According
to an article about Mr. DeWitt’s work by critically acclaimed Carroll
County artist, photographer, and writer, Phil Grout, “When Jerry DeWitt paints
a barn, there's a bit of the gentle clanging of cowbells mixing in with the
watercolors. [http://kevindayhoffart.blogspot.com/2012/03/smallwood-artist-jerry-dewitt-draws.html]
“That sound echoes back to his grandfather's Depression-era
farm at the end of a lane in Bedford County, Pa. He was just 2 years old when
his father left home for good and the youngster was uprooted from Lansing,
Mich., to live with his grandparents.
“And in between trips to the pasture to the hand-dug well
for another bucket of water, or out to the shed for an arm load of firewood,
the sights and sounds and smells of farm life wrapped themselves around Jerry's
memory, eventually finding their way to paint and paper more than 30 years
later…
After Mr. DeWitt served in the Navy during the Korean War, “became
a house carpenter building houses in Maryland and Florida.
“Years later, with his wife, Kris, and four children, Jerry
answered his calling — back on the farm, with paints and brushes instead of
water bucket and firewood. The family went to Florida for a visit to his wife's
parents. Jerry stayed behind in Hagerstown.
“He had a week all to himself. So he went to a five and 10
store in town and bought a set of watercolors and some brushes and then headed
out to a barn he'd spotted many times along Interstate-70 on his way to a house
construction site.
“DeWitt was 37 when he sat out there on the east side of
Cosen's Barn with his new set of paints.
“‘That was it. Time disappeared,’ he says. ‘Something was
opening up inside of me, and I could hear those cowbells. I could smell my
grandfather's barn.’”
For more information and photographs of Mr. DeWitt and his
work, see Phil Grout’s article, “Smallwood
artist Jerry DeWitt draws creative inspiration from his farm past,” in the
Baltimore Sun on March 17, 2012, about Mr. DeWitt’s work and his well-received and
highly successful show at Carroll Community College. [http://articles.baltimoresun.com/2012-03-17/explore/ph-ce-dewitt-and-wisdom-0318-20120317_1_oil-painting-smallwood-farm-life]

Runners' top 12 trails
Runners' top 12 trails
Get off the road and into the great outdoors on one of these favorite scenic routes
By Kit Waskom Pollard Special to The Baltimore Sun
August 30, 2012
Do you feel the nip in the air?
Runners do. For them, the advent of fall means more than changing leaves and back to school. Cooler weather and coming races (the Baltimore Running Festival is October 13) make autumn the ideal time to run in the great outdoors.
Baltimore is full of places to run, from stately neighborhoods to waterside paths. But for some runners, nothing beats the off-road experience.
"Even if you start off easy, it's fun to explore," says Chris Cucuzella, a member of the Baltimore Road Runners Club, a trail running group.
Here, 12 great trails endorsed by the enthusiastic members of local running clubs… http://www.baltimoresun.com/features/bs-hs-running-trails-20120829,0,2117907.story

When I first moved to the Pacific Northwest, I was amazed at
how many people had the same landscaping complaint. "I spent all weekend
cutting down the blackberries," some co-worker would groan on Monday
morning, looking for sympathy for the lost hours and aching back. However, as
someone who didn't grow up in such Edenic surroundings, I was totally
dumbfounded. Cutting back blackberries? Why would you cut back blackberries?
Don't they, you know, give you blackberries?

Much has changed in Westminster and Carroll County since Grover Kinzy, the first Maryland Cooperative Extension agent, came to town on Nov. 10, 1916 — in part, as a response to the economic chaos in the agriculture community resulting from the market repercussions of World War I.
Kinzy's office was in the Times Building, across the street from the old Westminster fire hall on Main Street in Westminster. One of the first things Kinzy did was help start local 4-H clubs.
According to the definitive history book on agriculture in Carroll County — "Legacy of the Land" by Carol Lee — it wasn't an easy task for Kinzy… http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/carroll/news/community/ph-ce-eagle-archive-0902-20120901,0,1065554.story
