There is much about Carroll County that stands out in a positive way, but “outstanding” just doesn’t seem to be a strong enough word for describing Dads Works, an extremely relevant and unique local program.
Dads Works helps fathers connect with and stay connected with their children. Its relevance has to do with how commonplace divorce has unfortunately become in our society, and with the fact that in the overwhelming number of cases of divorce, it is the father who is separated from the children of the marriage.
Research over the past few decades has shown that children from fatherless homes are more likely to become involved in drug and alcohol abuse, to drop out of school and to suffer from emotional problems. Boys from these homes are more likely to become involved in crime and to go to prison, and girls are more likely to become pregnant as teens.

BALTIMORE, MD (April 30, 2014) – Public Works Director
Rudolph S. Chow, P.E., reminds everyone that the Baltimore City Department of
Public Works (DPW) will be holding Prettyboy Day on Saturday, May 10, from 9
a.m. to 1 p.m. at Prettyboy Dam.
The event is to celebrate and educate attendees about
Prettyboy Dam and Reservoir, one of Baltimore's three raw drinking-water
reservoirs. The event will feature live musical entertainment by
singer/guitarist Dave Huber, face painting and balloon animals for the kids,
educational displays, a surprise competition, and food.
Attendees of all ages can take a tour inside the Dam which
will be open to the public only for this special day. Learn about Baltimore's
drinking water system, resource issues and conservation efforts. Rescued native
wildlife from Scales and Tales will be on display and experts from the Maryland
Department of Natural Resources will be on hand to tell all about them.
Last year 150 new trees were planted near the Dam. This year
attendees can participate in applying protective wrappings on them. Local
historian George Lang will also be on hand again with his historic archives.
“We are very happy to be able to showcase Prettyboy
Reservoir and Dam, vital elements of our drinking-water system,” said Director
Chow. “This is a tremendous opportunity to have fun while learning at a beautiful,
outdoor location.”
Prettyboy Day is sponsored by the Baltimore City Department
of Public Works, the Prettyboy Watershed Alliance and RK&K. Additional
support is provided by Baltimore County. The dam is located at Prettyboy Dam
Road, 21120.
Prettyboy Day celebrates National Drinking Water Week, May
4-10. The theme is “What do you know about H20?” and encourages all citizens to
learn more about the critical role water plays in our lives and the quality of
life we enjoy because of clean drinking water.
The event and parking are free. For more information about
Prettyboy Day call 410-545-6541.

Reservoir Day on April 27 celebrates region's liquid asset

Since the 1930s, warm weather and sunshine is a signal for
many in Carroll and Baltimore counties to venture outdoors for biking, hiking
fishing and boating trips in the Gunpowder River and Prettyboy watershed in the
Hereford area. Spring has arrived just in time to help celebrate Prettyboy
Reservoir Day this Saturday, April 27, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. This year the
Baltimore City Department of Public Works, the Prettyboy Watershed Alliance,
Carroll and Baltimore County have joined forces for the one-day event as a part
Earth Day celebrations and Baltimore Green Week.
