Absolutely fascinating article. I read it twice. Sunday, May 14, 2017 Carroll County Times Section D, page 1: "Email identity experiment." This reminds of my classes and lengthy conversations with Dr. Zepp at Westminster United Methodist Church and Western Maryland College; that were so enlightening. I will forever be indebted. Pam Zappardino has done a great job picking up that ball and running with it.

We really appreciate you sharing this information.
Country View Tuxedo & Wedding Accessories was founded
February 1998.
Has always been in the Winchester Exchange building in
downtown Westminster. And now has relocated into a more convenient and customer
friendly location.
I know how important it is for my customers to look the best
for their wedding, prom, or social event. I want to give my customers great
prices, great selection, and great service. If I would make an error. I am
willing to go beyond to make it the best experience. I am a Christian and feel
I have a calling here. Saying a silent prayer for the bride and groom that they
have a beautiful and wonderful wedding day. Or that the students make it to and
from the prom safely.
Styles have changed since I have opened and I have had to
adjust to the changes. Suits are being rented as much as tuxedos. So we offer
suits and tuxedos, for sale beside as a rental.
The store also has a gift shop with unique items made with
forks and spoons, we also have jeeps, motorcycles, and tractors made from car
parts.
I am now selling fireman uniforms to local fire departments.
I look forward to including service to the police department. My plans are to
expand future my services.

Mother Nature smiled on Sunday and provided a beautiful day
for folks to take over Sykesville's downtown and have a party. One of the many
sure signs that spring has arrived in Carroll County are the sights, sounds,
and excitement of the annual Sykesville Fine Art & Wine Festival.
This was the seventh year for the event, according to Julia
Della-Maria, Sykesville's Main Street Association coordinator. This year the
festival brought about 6,000 visitors to downtown Sykesville, according to
Della-Maria.
This a great boost to the "over 30 unique and eclectic
businesses (in town) — many of them have received awards for their originality
and success," said Della-Maria.
[…]
In a recent release it was announced that Sykesville was
named as a quarterfinalist in the competition. Nationwide, "More than
156,000 votes were cast for 242 nominees during the nominations phase,"
according to the release. "Quarterfinalist voting begins May 1 at www.votesykesville.com and runs
through May 28." You really can vote early and often for Sykesville.
Classico Pizzeria has been a favorite of our family's for
years. Reasonably priced great food by fantastic friendly folks who love to
cook and are in the customer service business. The well-appointed bright
restaurant is always spotless and provides a great place to have lunch, dinner
or an afternoon snack with your friends and family. Take-out is always easy.
Just call ahead and it will ready by the time you arrive. They will know you
and your family in no time. You are not just a number, you are a friend and a
guest in their house…
Parking is always readily available in a well-lighted
parking lot. At least one of the owners has a military and firefighter
background - Classico is a favorite with military personnel, firefighters,
first responders, EMS providers, dispatchers, and police officers. Locally
owned by a wonderful, community-minded, family that works really hard. All your
money stays in Westminster and helps support great family and they give back to
the community.

More pictures from the Troop 1750 Eagle Scout Court of Honor for Matthew D. Yingling, Sat. May 6, 2017 at Zion United Methodist Church in Shipley Maryland.
Hats off to Carroll County Commissioner Richard Weaver and Maryland State Police Captain Holly Barrett for taking the time out of their hectic schedules to not only attend, but speak well and stay after the ceremonies to talk with folks. RESPECT.
Zion United Methodist Church in Shipley is always Norman Rockwell perfect for these occasions.
It was great to see my Westminster High School Class of 1971 classmate Ronnie Zepp and his wife, Debbie Zepp, who also participated in the service. Thank you

For the reader that was looking for the article that I wrote
about Judge Edward O. Weant Jr. July 11, 2016 by Kevin E. Dayhoff Please enjoy.
Weant was born in Westminster on April 9, 1918. He died on
February 10, 1999 at the age of 80. A Feb. 13, 1999… Weant, another
well-respected jurist from Carroll County served on the Maryland Court of
Special Appeals, the second highest court in Maryland — from 1979-1988.
Weant was elected to the Maryland State Senate in 1958 and
1964. In 1963, "he sponsored a move to allow Carroll County residents to
vote on whether to approve the Maryland Accommodations law. The law was the
first in a state below the Mason-Dixon Line that required public businesses to
open to African-Americans. July 11, 2016 by Kevin E. Dayhoff http://www.carrollcountytimes.com/columnists/ph-ce-dayhoff-071016-20160710-column.html
Recent articles about the June 1 appointment of Carroll
County native son Joe Getty to the state's highest court and his subsequent
investiture on June 27 have prompted quite a number of reader questions.
Several readers wanted to know more about the four judges
from Carroll County that sat on the Maryland Court of Appeals before Getty was
appointed — and why Judge Edward O. Weant Jr. was not mentioned.
Weant, another well-respected jurist from Carroll County
served on the Maryland Court of Special Appeals, the second highest court in
Maryland — from 1979-1988. According to the Maryland State Archives, "The
Court of Special Appeals is an appellate court. It was established in 1966 to
ease the caseload of the Court of Appeals and to facilitate resolution of cases
requiring appellate adjudication.
Weant was born in Westminster on April 9, 1918. He died on
February 10, 1999 at the age of 80. A Feb. 13, 1999, Baltimore Sun article
written by Fred Rasmussen indicates that "Judge Weant lived his entire
life in the 1890s brick house on Willis Street in Westminster where he was born
and raised, the son of an attorney. He was a familiar figure on the streets of
Westminster, where he took daily walks to and from the courthouse."
Many in the community also fondly mentioned his wife, Sarah
Morriss Weant, who died just a few years ago, on Dec. 1, 2010 at the age of 87.
Judge Weant earned his bachelor's degree from Western
Maryland (now McDaniel) College in 1941. He was months away from a master's
degree at Harvard Business School when he was drafted into the Army, according
to Rasmussen.

Campaign priorities
1. Public safety- This is a multifaceted issue that needs to be addressed more vigorously and with greater focus. Improved public safety includes efforts to reduce the sale and use of drugs, to develop options for our homeless population and to deal with the crime issue. We need to collaborate with our service agencies and law enforcement to seek their suggestions and input. Partnering with local colleges, the health department, and local agencies to expand services will help to address these issues. By sharing our ideas and resources together we can progress toward a safer more attractive community. Offering more downtown family activities such as the successful Flower and Jazz fest, the wine stroll, and concerts in the park will increase exposure to all the city has to offer and will create a friendly, welcoming atmosphere.
2. Utilizing the Broadband project to attract new business and create jobs is an effort that needs continued support. This service puts our City in the forefront of modern technology to expand and develop business opportunities. By creating a business friendly atmosphere, we will stimulate economic growth. This accompanied with efforts to support law enforcement to reduce crime and the sale and use of drugs will make the downtown area safer and more appealing to our citizens and to future businesses.
3. Improving communication between the city administration, the council and the citizens of Westminster. To do this we can begin to broadcast council meetings on local programming. Create a newsletter from the council and to offer informal activities to enable communication with citizens; such as scheduled walks in neighborhoods, meet and greet sessions at local restaurants or business. This will allow us as representatives of your city to hear your concerns and hopefully praises as well.
