2010 Westminster Fallfest is fast approaching


September 17, 2010

2010 Fallfest: 9/23, 6pm - 10pm; 9/24, 6pm - 10pm; 9/25, 10am - 10pm; 9/26, 12pm - 6pm; 2010 Parade Date: Thursday 9/23/10 at 7PM



Dear Friends of Fallfest,

Retrieved September 17, 2010

Westminster Fallfest, Inc. began as an autumn celebration in historic downtown Westminster, growing over time to operate throughout the year, sponsoring various fundraising events, all to benefit charities and service organizations within our community.

Our signature event is our annual Westminster Fallfest, Carroll County’s largest community charity event.  Each September, Fallfest draws over 40,000 people to historic downtown Westminster.  Families enjoy our festival midway and rides, while others come for the great food, unique shopping, and heart-stopping entertainment.  Our event begins with a parade, followed by four days of non-stop fun.

Fallfest is more than a festival midway or great place to find one of a kind crafts and gifts.  It’s an exciting time to share with our families and friends, and at the same time, give back to our great community.  Whether you join us for the fabulous food, the sights and sounds of our great entertainment, shopping, volunteering on-site, or providing vital sponsorship dollars to make the event happen—Westminster Fallfest is glad to have you!

Westminster Fallfest, Inc. P.O. Box 804, Westminster, MD 21158 www.westminsterfallfest.com August 28, 2004 Westminster Fallfest started in 1978 to promote the awareness for the renewal of the downtown shopping district, in which our fundraising efforts center today. During the 1980's volunteers that organized Fallfest realized excess funds from vendor fees and other activities. The volunteers decided to distribute these funds to support local charities. After receiving positive responses from charities, the volunteers decided to broaden their efforts. Over the years we have evolved into a multi-cultural and multifaceted organization known as Westminster Fallfest, Inc. Fallfest operates 12 months a year organizing and providing the community and local non-profit charities the opportunity to apply and be interviewed to receive excess proceeds from our various fundraising activities.

2010 Corn Maze to Open at the Carroll County Ag Center in Westminster Maryland






2010 Corn Maze to Open at the Carroll County Ag Center in Westminster Maryland http://tinyurl.com/2aw7yfb

-- PRESS RELEASE --
For more information contact:
Nichole McLaughlin, Office Manager 410-848-6704
For more information and directions, call the Agriculture Center at 410 848-6704; or go to www.ccag.biz or click on http://tinyurl.com/2fxtxhn

Corn Maze to Open in Westminster

Get lost this fall at the 2010 Carroll County Agriculture Center corn maze.

Authorities have identified the crop circles found outside of Westminster as the work of Carroll County Ag Center volunteers and not the work of space aliens.
~~~~~~

Beginning Friday, September 10, 2010, the Ag Center will feature over 2 miles of trails creatively carved out of acres of seven-foot tall corn just outside of Westminster.

It has been six years since a maze was artfully carved into the crop fields at the Ag Center.  In 2004, over 3,300 folks visited.

The theme of this year’s maze is a celebration of Carroll County’s agricultural heritage.  A cornucopia of grapes, an apple, a banana, pumpkin, and squash have carefully been carved into the field for hours of family fun.

Come test your navigational skills.  Get off the couch, turn off the TV, get out of the house and enjoy the fresh air and support a worthy cause, the Carroll County Agriculture Center, home of the nationally known Carroll County 4-H and FFA Fair.

Public hours are Friday and Saturday nights from 5 PM to 9 PM and Sunday afternoons from 2 PM to 6 PM.  The maze will be open weekends until October 31, 2010 and will feature a haunted maze on October 29th and 30th, 2010.

Cost is $10 for adults and $5 for ages 3 to 12.  Group prices and times are available, call 410 848-6704.

For more information and directions, call the Agriculture Center at 410 848-6704; or go to www.ccag.biz or click on http://tinyurl.com/2fxtxhn

Baggy pants stylin’ in downtown Westminster Maryland




Baggy pants stylin’ in downtown Westminster.

September 9, 2010

Over the last year and three-quarters that I have been a partner in a downtown Westminster business, an art studio, Off Track Art; I have been delighted to have had the opportunity to become reacquainted with the latest in fashion and style.

This example, of a young man that walked by the shop on September 4, 2010, is really stylin’; except he could hardly walk in his cutting-edge stylin’ outfit.  He was constantly tugging upon his trousers to keep them from falling to his knees or ankles and his step was faltering. 

I stifled a chuckle long enough to capture this picture…
