Pat Carpenter Holiday Parade

Brings Santa to North Beach
By Dick Myers
Staff Writer
The sun was bright as hundreds of
people lined both sides of Bay Avenue
in North Beach Saturday, Dec. 3 for the
annual North Beach Pat Carpenter Holiday
Parade. The brisk, chilling wind off the
Chesapeake Bay didnt deter the parade
viewers, most warmly dressed or
huddled under blankets.
The parade featured an array of walkers,
entertainers, cars, motorcycles and floats
from organizations representing all aspects
of life in northern Calvert County. The parade lasted more than an hour but the end
was what the kids were anxiously awaiting

--- the arrival of Santa on a North Beach
Volunteer Fire Department ladder truck.
Santa hopped off and met up with Mrs.
Santa waiting in Santas Workshop to greet
the kids and find out what was on the gift
wish lists.
The parade grand marshal was the longest-serving state senate president, Sen.
Thomas V. Mike Miller. Master of Ceremonies was Maryland Veterans Secretary
George Owings.

Wahl Leaves Public

Office After 28 Years
By Dick Myers
Staff Writer
After eight years as mayor and a total of
28 years on the Chesapeake Beach Town
Council, Bruce Wahl will be retiring from
public life on Thursday, Dec. 15. Wahl opted not to seek re-election. Long-time councilman Pat Irish Mahoney will be sworn
in as the new mayor along with six council
members on that date.
Wahl met with the Calvert County Board
of County Commissioners (BOCC) Dec. 6
on behalf of himself and mayor-elect Mahoney, who was out of town. Wahl and the
county commissioners used the occasion to
praise each other and the cooperative effort
between the two levels of local government.
Wahl also praised Mahoney, who filled
in for the mayor during his recent illness.
He noted that he was vice chairman under
long-time mayor Gerald Donavan and that
Mahoney was his vice chairman. The town
is in good hands, Wahl said of the change
of leadership.
Wahl also used the occasion to announce
that the town had received a $130,000
grant for planning for a long-sought project a sidewalk between Beach Elementary
School and Chesapeake Village.
The mayor for another week noted that a

sign of that cooperation between the town
and county was the town allowing the use of
the Chesapeake Village water tower for the
countys communications system, which
improved coverage in northern Calvert.
I think it is safe to say we have developed a good rapport, Wahl said of the interjurisdictional cooperation.
Wahl said he was especially proud of having the town sewage treatment plant named
after him. He said the plants improved
quality was helping to clean up the Chesapeake Bay.
I think it is a remarkable town. I think it
is beautiful what you have done, Commissioner Mike Hart told Wahl.
Commissioners Tom Hejl and Steve
Weems praised Wahl for the towns rails to
trails program. Weems said when he first
took office he was particularly impressed
with Wahl. The one impression I had was
the passion you had for Chesapeake Beach,
Weems told Wahl.
Mahoney has 20 years of tenure on the
town council when he takes over as mayor.
Two council members were re-elected
Stewart Combo and Valerie Beaudin. The
four new council members are Derek J. Favret, Greg Morris, Lawrence P. Jaworski,
and Keith L. Pardieck. Wahl pointed out
that the new council members had all been
presidents of their homeowners associations and had been active in the town.
Wahl said he is not going away. He still is
continuing in his full-time job with National
Public Radio and he said he would continue
to be active in the town.

In an effort to raise money for Calvert

County Hospice and the Jailhouse Rockers
Relay for Life team, Calvert County Sheriff Mike Evans relaxed the strict grooming
standards from November 1st until November 30th in exchange for a $50 fine.
The Detention Center, Sheriffs Office,
and some private citizens were able to raise
just under $3,000 during this great cause.
Additionally, when Bryan Dowell of Dowell Financial Services learned of the fundraiser, he pledged to donate 50 percent of
the total raised. Dowell presented a generous $1,500 check to Jean Fleming and
Claire Piason of Calvert Hospice. Fleming,
stated, Donations from the community
give us the freedom to meet ever changing
financial demands as they occur. They allow us to meet so many needs, from keeping our lights on to providing expert end of
life care to our patients and families. We

couldnt do what we do without the support
of our community.
A portion of the money was donated
to the Jailhouse Rockers. The Jailhouse
Rockers is a Relay for Life team that raises
money annually for the American Cancer
Society. Sheriff Mike Evans could present
the remainder of the money on behalf of the
Sheriffs Office to Fleming and Piason.

Caretaker Sentenced For

Stealing Thousands
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
Circuit Court Judge Gregory Wells sentenced a woman who stole hundreds of
thousands of dollars from the estate of a
couple who she had lived with to six years
in state prison after she took a plea deal to
two separate criminal counts.
Janice Marie Tyler pleaded guilty to
one count of stealing between $10,000 to
$100,000 from the estate of Terrye and
Loren Zaremba and one count of taking
property above $100,000 in value from a
vulnerable person.
Assistant States Attorney Michael Morgan said that police were alerted to issues
with the Zaremba estate from the attorney
who oversaw it and from neighbors who
saw the Porsche sports car belonging to the
Zaremba estate being towed away from the
home.
Morgan told the court that Tyler, and a
conspirator named Milburn Brock, both
lived in the basement of the Zaremba home
as renters and later sold the Porsche and
pocketed the money.
Loren Zaremba died in 2012 while his
wife Terrye died last November.
Morgan said that Brock did some handyman work for the Zaremba family and that
Brock and Tyler had done some minor care-
taking tasks for Terrye Zaremba for about

10 years after her husband died.
Morgan said that while some of the money taken from the estate was done with the
consent of Terrye Zaremba, the state contended that her condition led to the states
assertion that she was vulnerable and did
not consent to withdrawals of such large
amounts of money.
The overall amount agreed to in court for
restitution to the estate was $400,000.
Some of this money was taken from the
estate after Terrye Zaremba had died.
She was obviously incapable of giving
consent to the money that was stolen after
her death, Morgan wrote in an e-mail.
Tylers attorney, Jacquelyn Swanson, said
that her client suffered from multiple health
problems as well as oxycotin addiction.
Shes very, very sorry for the decisions
shes made, Swanson said.
This is a sad and unfortunate case,
Wells said. You were held in a position of
trust and you betrayed that trust.
Morgan said that Brock is set to take a
plea later this week in the case.

Lusby Man Indicted For

Armed Robbery, Assault
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
Prosecutors are pursuing an indictment

against Chicago Alexander Garner, 22, for
an armed robbery he committed in Lusby
back in October, court records reveal.
Garner faces 10 separate counts including first-degree assault, reckless endangerment, armed robbery and using a firearm in
the commission of a felony.
According to an application for a statement of charges the alleged robbery was
spawned by a phone call between Garner
and the victim, Ricky Davonte Thomas,
asking Thomas for a car ride.
The two had apparently met several
months earlier and Thomas had given Garner car rides in exchange for gas money,
court papers stated.
Garner asked Thomas to meet him on
Golden West Way in Lusby; when Thomas
arrived Garner got in the car and brandished a handgun and pointed it at Thomas
head, court papers stated.
Give me all your money or whatever
you got or I am gonna shoot you, Garner is
alleged to have said to Thomas.
Another suspect who had been waiting
with Garner tried to get in but Thomas
drove away, charging documents stated.

While driving Garner allegedly struck
Thomas in the back of the head with the
gun, racked the slide of the weapon and
said I got one in the chamber.
Thomas stopped the car and got out;
Garner crawled into the drivers seat but a
woman in the passenger seat who had come
with Thomas removed the keys from the
ignition.
When Garner tried to get out of the vehicle, Thomas began striking his assailant
and the gun fell to the ground.
Garner picked up the gun and ran down
Golden West Way on foot, police said.
A woman who lived nearby and saw
Garner run from the fight and told him to
come into her home so she could call the
police, but Garner continued to run, police
said.
Police took witness statements from five
witnesses which confirmed the incident,
court papers stated.

Two Injured in Rear-End Collision

Calvert County Sheriffs Office deputies responded Dec. 1 at approximately 5:11
p.m. to the area of Maryland Rt. 2 and Federal Oak Drive for the report of a serious
crash. Once on scene deputies observed a
2000 Toyota mini -van and a 2013 Infiniti
with severe damage as the result of a rear
end type collision. The at fault mini-van
was occupied by four females, three of
whom including the operator were juveniles. Two of the occupants of the minivan
appeared to be uninjured and the remaining two were flown to trauma centers
where they were evaluated and found to
have non- life threatening injuries. Two of
the juveniles were not belted. One that was
not belted was flown.
Gladys Sewell was operating a Sewell
Funeral Home passenger vehicle when she
was rear ended by the mini-van. Sewell
was waiting to make a left turn from northbound Rt. 2 into the Sunderland Park and
Ride. Gladys Sewell was transported to

Calvert Memorial Hospital where she was
treated for her injuries.
Due to the severity of this crash CCSO
reconstruction team members were called
to the scene to assist with the investigation. A possible cause of injury to the occupants of the mini-van is believed to have
been from a spare tire that was not properly
secured in the vehicle. The spare tire, just
as an unoccupied passenger or other loose
objects in a vehicle, became a projectile
during the collision and is believed to have
struck at least one of the occupants causing
serious injury.
This investigation is continuing. Anyone
who may have witnessed this crash or has
information that may assist with the investigation is encouraged to contact CCSOs
Cpl. Tom Phelps at 410-535-2800 or email
phelpsts@co.cal.md.us.

build marketable business skills by applying what they learn in the classroom with
hands-on learning, all the while making a
substantial difference in their community.
The course, which begins Jan. 25, will
provide CSM students a chance to again
partner with local social impact organizations. The students will be placed on teams,
work throughout the semester with an assigned project, present their work at the end
of the semester in front of a panel of judges
and compete for prize money that will be
dedicated to the organization they were
chosen to work with.
The previous Southern Maryland Social
Entrepreneurship Challenge taken on by
Klingers management class was facilitated by a grant received through the Center
for Engineering Concepts Development
(CECD) in the Department of Mechanical

Engineering at the University of Maryland
(UMD). The grant provided funding for 24
CSM students to spend a semester identifying needs, and in a methodical, entrepreneurial spirit, innovate toward solutions.
The CECD again will partner in the course
being offered in January. It will provide
funds to develop and offer the course. Students accepted to participate will receive a
full scholarship for tuition, fees and textbooks used in the course. The CECD has
provided the scholarships to support participation in the course.
The end-of-semester spring projects
were presented to a panel of judges where
the winning team was awarded $1,500 and
the second-place team was awarded $500,
provided by the Neilom Foundation.
The winning team of AnnaBelle Sanders
of Lexington Park, Gail Perry of Waldorf,
Paige King of California and Pam Toye
of Hollywood developed a Life Planning
Curriculum project as a solution to positively impact the youth within St. Marys
County. The curriculum, developed for
students in Grades 8-12, focuses on four integrated components: social and emotional
learning skills; individualized education
and career exploration; financial planning;
and development of a Life Plan for implementation following high school graduation. Piloted with the Great Mills High
School football team to much success, this
project shows promise for integration within the St. Marys County public school system for its ability to positively impact todays youth and their future, Klinger said.
The second-place team of Rachel Dorsey
of California, Erica Martin of Patuxent
River, Melana Krivitsky of Chesapeake
Beach, Erik Eaton of California and Lisa
Dixson of Lusby chose Planting Hope
as a solution to help solve hunger among
children and the elderly. The teams research noted one of every eight people is
hungry in Southern Maryland. The team
contacted individuals and businesses in
the community who were unaware of the
problem. Working with Brenda DiCarlo
Dylan Hazelwood, left, and Dr. Davinder K. Anand join students Pam Toye, Gail Perry, AnnaBelle Sanders
and Paige King along with Dr. Mary Beth Klinger at the Southern Maryland Social Entrepreneurship Challenge during the 2016 spring semester.
of the Southern Maryland Food Bank, the

team found a plot of land where a garden
could be planted and food harvested could
supplement the diets of more than 100 people. Collaborating with CSM instructors to
create service-learning projects, the team
sees students in hospitality and environmental courses picking up care, and possibly expansion, of the garden well into the
future. The team used the $250 seed money
to purchase plants and supplies to get the
garden started and donated money to the
food bank.
The team of Atorria Moore, Jarett Loeffler, Katie Weber, Nathan Hurry and Zeidi
Chleuh chose Sparking a Change in Our
Community The Mission.
The team of Alex Looman, Gilbert McCoy, Shubham Malik and Justin Thomas
chose Students Rising Above Higher
Heights Foundation.
The team of Aidan Dollins, Mark
Ledvinka, Sam Kuss, Cala Collins and Justin Brown chose Save the Bay! (Oysters).
Klinger, course instructor, said she is
indebted to Dr. Davinder K. Anand and
Dylan Hazelwood of the CECD at UMD.
We couldnt have offered the challenge
without their generous support, she said.

Sunderland Elementary is one of six
schools selected as a Maryland Blue Ribbon School by the Maryland State Department of Education. The selection, announced Dec. 5 at the Maryland Board of
Education meeting, is based on rigorous
state and national requirements for high
achievement and significant improvement.
Calvert County Superintendent of
Schools Dr. Daniel D. Curry, said, Sunderland is a school that fosters community and achievement. Teachers set high
expectations in a supportive atmosphere.
The talented and dedicated staff members,
led by principal Pamela Kasulke, deserve
this recognition, as does former principal
Karen Vogel, who is currently principal at
Patuxent Appeal Elementary.
Sunderland Elementary students scored
overall at 73 percent proficient or above in
math and 70 percent in English language
arts areas of PARCC. The school encourag-
es volunteerism and has a Family Student

Organization (FSO) that also assists with
fundraising efforts. All students become
future ready by using mobile devices,
document cameras, SMARTBoards and
computers. In grades 4 and 5, a 1:1 device
program has students utilizing technology
in daily instruction. The school offers services for students with disabilities, as well
as regional programs that include Inclusive
Pre-K, Co-Taught Kindergarten and HeadStart. The Seahawk Kindness Crew works
in partnership with Huntingtown High
Schools Key Club to foster respect and
kindness. Community partnerships with
local churches provide support for families
in the school though the HeartFelt Backpack Program and the Angel Tree Project.
The six schools will be invited by the
U.S. Department of Education to apply to
be National Blue Ribbon Schools. With underwriting and gift sponsor support, each
school will receive a Maryland
Blue Ribbon Flag, a monetary
prize, $1000 of office supplies,
interactive technology equipment, and a school Congratulations Party. A dinner in Annapolis
will be held in honor of the winning schools on March 13, 2017.
On that date, each Blue Ribbon
School will be honored by the
Maryland House of Delegates and
the Senate.

SMAC Boys Basketball Preview
By Zach Hill
Contributing Writer
Patuxent Panthers
2016-17 Coaches Poll Ranking: #12

2015-16 Season Record: Divisional Record (8-4); Overall Record (17-7)
Expected Difference Makers: Brendan
West (#32, Junior, Guard); Myron Young
(#4, Senior, Guard)
Newcomers: Of the Panthers 15 man roster, 9 have never played in a Varsitygame
Anticipated Strengths: Ability to Adjust Quickly; Fast Learners; Transition
Our Breakdown:
It is obvious that the Panthers are going
to be a unique team to watch this year. The
team graduated four of their five main starters last year which left them in the position
where younger talents had to be moved up
to the Varsity level. Just to top that all off,
Patuxent had 6 of their basketball players
out for the first week of practice because of
Varsity football playoffs. Had Patuxents
football team made a longer run in the playoffs, this basketball team would surely be
afraid of what the have to face in their early
weeks of games.
Ive been impressed with how quickly

weve come together as a group in the abbreviated timeframe and how well we have
dealt with the learning curve. Mens Head
Coach Nick Wilson said when asked about
how his team has been looking during the
preseason. We have a lot of new faces to
the Varsity level so we are counting on our
seasoned vets for some much needed leadership, on and off the court.
If the Panthers manage to find someone
to act as a leader on the court to this extremely new team, they could manage to
do well. However, with such a strong and
experienced group of teams in the Southern Maryland Athletic Conference, it is
going to take a lot of hard work and development during the earlier parts of the season to be able to even have a chance at the
postseason.
Northern Patriots

Expected Difference Makers: Dion
Marks (#23, Senior, Center); Braeden Oliver (#2, Junior, Guard)
Newest Arrivals: Andrew Young (#33,
Junior, Guard); Jai Parker (#1, Junior,
Guard)
Anticipated Strengths: Speed, Experience, Ball Rotation, Unity, Transition
Our Breakdown:
Bringing in a decent amount of returning players from last season, the Northern
Patriots will be on the rise this year. After
only having two wins throughout the entire 2015-16 season (Calvert 48-37; McDonough 60-52), there shouldnt be much
room for anything other than improvement

during this years campaign.
The Patriots only suffered a minimal
loss with seniors graduating. This will
now leave extra room for the senior Dion
Marks to step up and lead the way for his
team. Last year, most of what Northerns
game-plan consisted of was feeding the
ball to the towering, 6-foot-5 Dion Marks
and having him put up a basket. While this
led to Marks putting up 197 points last season, this plan didnt convert into wins. This
year, the Patriots are hoping that juniors
Andrew Young, Jai Parker, and Braeden
Oliver will help distribute some of the pressure that Marks saw last season and hopefully, lead to a few more wins than this
team saw last year.

Calvert Cavaliers

Expected Difference Makers: Jonathan
Weems (#3, Junior, Guard);
Ryan Rachic (#13, Sophomore, G/SF)
Anticipated Strengths: Experience,
Quickness, Aggressiveness, Collaboration
as a Unit
Our Breakdown:
Having one of the oldest teams currently
in the Southern Maryland Athletic Conference (only one underclassman), it isnt really a surprise that this teams ability to work
together as a unit will most likely be one of
their strengths this year. While age and experience will be at the Cavaliers advantage
this season, injury will surely be a plague to
them giving us all something to keep an eye
on this season.[We are] starting the season
banged up because thefootball team had a
deep run, winning the region championship over Patuxent. [We] havefiveinjured
players, four from football. Calvert Head
Coach Jeremy Kurutz said.
Another big surprise coming from this

team is the praise and incredible amount
of reliability that the coaching staff has for
their only underclassman, Ryan Rachic.
Coach Kurutz praises Rachic as the teams
Most Versatile Player which is a very
high honor to a kid on a team of all upperclassmen. [He] can play guard or small
forward, [hes] fundamentally sound, great
shooter, [he has a] good pivot foot [and is]
a natural scorer. Scoring a total of 158
points last season, averaging 6.9 points a
game and 3.5 rebounds as a freshman on
a varsity team, Ryan Rachic will definitely
be something to watch out for this season.
With a team featuring a lot of experienced and talented players, Calvert could
be one of our Coaches Polls biggest upsets.
The biggest question that anyone should
have about this team with regards to their
success will be how injuries will play out.
If Calvert manages to get back some of its
injured players, sooner rather than later, the
Cavaliers could be a dominant force by the
time February rolls in.
Huntingtown Hurricanes

Expected Difference Makers: Davaughn
Reid(#10, Senior, Guard; 2nd team all
SMAC 2015); DJ Hopkins(#11, Senior,
Wing); Nemo Stewart(#22, Senior, Wing)
Newcomers: Mike Morrison(#, Junior,
Guard); Dom Deldovico(#, Junior, Wing)
Anticipated Strengths: Unity, Competitiveness, Character, Work Ethic
Our Breakdown:
The Hurricanes really suffered a loss to
their strong program last year with at least
five members of their team graduating.
What Head Coach Joseph Pratt decided to
do following this loss of talent is a scary but
necessary action by a high school coach; he
moved up 6 players from JV that have never played in a Varsity game. High school
coaches are always nervous when they
are forced to bring up younger players but
Coach Pratt seems rather confident in his
team as a good coach should be.
I think we have a lot of potential Our

goal is to be playing our best basketball
in February and March. We have 12 road
games and 10 home games this season so
my young guys will have to grown up fast.
Our seniors and returning players are going to have to lead by example and show
the younger players the way. Coach Pratt
said. That being said, Huntingtowns program should still be considered a threat this
year being led by Seniors Davaughn Reid
and DJ Hopkins.
Last season, Davaughn Reid was awarded the honor of 2nd Team All-SMAC which
is a rather high honor for a Junior to receive. We can only expect Reid to deliver
a similar excellent performance this year
even with slightly less of a supporting staff
than he has had in years prior. If the Hurricanes can rally behind their senior leaders and show their character and work ethic
on the court, they could still pull off a top
half finish in SMAC despite their difficult
schedule.

A Holiday Chat
with Calverts Top Cop
By Dave Spigler
Feature Writer
Todays national news is often focused

on police-involved incidents that place
our law enforcement in a less-than positive light. Too often, the news media report
these stories in what seems to be a rush
to judgement long before all the facts are
known. Each week that goes by, we witness
an uncomfortable police chief put before
the television cameras to answer questions
and explain the situation at hand within his
community. He or she is forced into defending their officer and/or pleading for patience until the investigation is completed.
It is a situation a Police Chief hopes never
to be faced with.
Fortunately for us here in Calvert County, an increasing number of recent reports
in the local media concerning our law enforcement have been positive stories of the
many awards and recognition attained by
our Calvert County Sheriffs Office. It is refreshing to see our own outstanding police
force being honored for all the good works
and services they routinely provide our citizens. It is often said, a police officers work
is a thankless occupation. As with our veterans, our deputies do not always receive
the special credit and appreciation for the

great service they provide.
The County Times was recently given an
opportunity to sit down with our popular
Calvert County Sheriff Mike Evans and
informally discuss a whole range of topics and issues. Our discussion included the
new Maryland legislation implemented on
October 1st known as Noahs Law, the
often misunderstood Move Over Law,
the current climate in the relationship of
our citizens with our police, the upcoming
Shop With A Cop Program, and a Christmas Holiday message for the community.
Additionally we discussed the sheriffs 39year career in law enforcement as a Marland State Trooper and Calvert County
Deputy. In all respects, this is totally a
good news story to commence the Holiday Season here in Southern Maryland.
To begin with, the sheriff was asked
what is his office doing right to cause his
officers to receive so much positive recognition this year in light of the significant
negative publicity directed at policemen
nationally. He believes much of it has to do
with the absolute display of professionalism

Sheriff Evans
he demands of his officers. He expects his

officers to display respect, not only to the
office they represent, but to every citizen of
Calvert to whom they serve. He is steadfast
in his belief of providing the best training
available to his officers. He feels fortunate
to have the resources to ensure these men
and women are exposed to the very latest
thoughts and experiences when confronted
with the current problems oftoday.
Importantly, the members of the sheriffs
office, both uniformed and civilian staff,
are continuing to do a great job as indicated
by the growing number of compliments of
our citizens regarding their interaction with
the police. Much of it is due to an increased
police involvement with the citizenry
through mentoring our youth with Camp
Junior Sheriff, the strong vigilance and interaction of the Liaison Officers placed in
our schools in getting to know the students
up close and personal, becoming more involved with the Explorer Program, and by
continual ongoing efforts to open lines of
communication within our shopping centers and our communities. Additionally,
the sheriff has taken upon himself to visit
many of the diversified churches within
the county to further the bonding with all
ethnic groups that make up a growing percentage of the population. These efforts are
helping to make his officers public presence a positive image to be respected.
The sheriff was asked about the growing
incidents of police officers being injured or
even killed when responding to domestic
violence reports that are appearing in the
media. Fortunately, we are not experiencing a lot of this behavior here. Apparently
our police know how to take command of
these situations before they escalate into a
more serious event. When asked, what are
our major issues today involving our police
interventions, he states unequivocally, it
is the illegal use of drugs and traffic fatalities. The hardest part of his job has always
been having to notify loved ones of the
needless loss of life due to an overdose of
drugs or deaths caused by accidents due to
speed, aggressive driving, or driving under
the influence of drugs and/or alcohol. It is
something any police officer can never get

used to.
The State of Maryland recently passed
legislation called The Drunk Driving Reduction Act of 2016 known as Noahs
Law, named for a Montgomery County
police officer Noah Leotta who was fatally
struck in the act of duty when a drunk driver ran into him during a DUI Task Force
traffic stop last December 3. This new law
requires a person convicted of certain alcohol related driving offenses to participate
in the Ignition Interlock System Program.
The individuals will need to pay for the installation of a device that will only allow
their car to start once they blow into this
unit to check their breath for evidence of
recent consumption of beer, wine or liquor.
Each device will bear the likeness of Police
Officer Leotta. Evans says there are ways to
get around this method, but should the convicted individual get caught circumventing
this device, the punishment is huge. Since
this new law has been only in effect for two
months, there is little to no data collected as
yet to determine itseffectiveness.
We moved on to chat about Marylands
Move Over Law that has been on the
books for a few years, not only here, but in
many states. According to the sheriff, not
everybody understands it or they are purposely avoiding compliance. Basically, the
law requires motorists who are travelling in
the same direction as a stopped emergency
vehicle to move over a lane to allow room
to prevent a collision with those involved
in whatever the situation might be. It could
be a traffic stop initiated by a police officer
due to a violation or a disabled vehicle. The
sheriff also clarified it could be a situation
where a tow truck is attempting to remove
a vehicle as well. At any rate, whenever
emergency lights, whether yellow, red or
blue are flashing, motorists are expected to
slow down and safely change lanes as long
as it is safe to do so. Sheriff Evans states
it appears the law is working, but admits
it can be difficult to enforce when there is
only one police officer involved. His attention will be focused upon the circumstances of the event. There is a report of 23
various members of law enforcement having been injured throughout the state this
year while performing their duties alongside the road. He believes it would be much
worse without this law, especially with the
increased traffic on our roads and highways
today creating even more traffic stops. But,
thankfully, our Calvert citizens seem to be
adhering to the law as we are not experiencing the problems occurring in other parts
of the state where there are large interstate
highways crisscrossing thecountryside.
The sheriff smiled when he spoke of
Calverts annual Shop With A Cop Program, that will take place in December,
just prior to Christmas. This program was

initiated several years ago for two reasons.
One, it gives underprivileged children the
opportunity to go into local businesses to
select gifts for family members to put beneath the tree each Christmas. Each child
is given a sum of money to spend during a
Saturday morning shopping spree accompanied by a deputy who assists them with
gift selections and helps with making the
purchase. The child must select gifts for
immediate family. He or she gets to ride in
a police car with the flashing lights on and
the siren blasting - it is a real thrill for these
youngsters to experience. But the big reason that makes this heartwarming program
so special is the long-term benefits it has
in having young people learn at an
early age our police officers are good
people who should never be feared or
frightened to be around. It is hoped
that these children will form a bond
and appreciation for a police officer
that will last all of their lives. Due to
the generosity of the Calvert community, there are now two programs
held each year. Another Shop With
A Cop event is held in August just
prior to the start of the school year
to permit these kids the opportunity
to obtain necessary school supplies
that their families may not be able to
afford. Sheriff Mike wanted us to be
sure to thank all the great sponsors
who make these popular programs
sosuccessful.
A little background information
on Calverts Top Cop Mike Evans was raised in a law enforcement
environment and has been a police
officer for most of his life. A native
of Huntingtown, he is one of four children.

He graduated from Calvert High School in
1974. His dad, Ted Evans, is a retired Lt.
Colonel with the Maryland State Police and
his mother, Aubrey Evans, is a former Clerk
of the Circuit Court for Calvert County. His
dad was his mentor and inspiration to become a cop one day. Mike has been married to his wife Susan for 38 years. She is
employed at the Calvert County Detention
Center. They have two sons, Eric, a Senior
Trooper with the Maryland State Police and
Charlie, a sergeant with the Maryland State
Police as well. Eric and wife Traci have two
children Mason and Maddyn and Charlie
and wife Cassie have a daughter Sophia.
Mike enjoys spending time with his family the most; he does like to get away for
a round of golf and to exercise too when
hecan.
Upon graduation from high school, Evans joined the Army for a two year stint.
His military service allowed his use of the
GI Bill, and with it, he earned an Associate
of Arts Degree in Criminal Justice. He became a Maryland State Trooper in 1978 and
was assigned to the Prince Frederick Barrack for 15 years. He then became a member of the Special Tactical Assault Team
Element [S.T.A.T.E.]. During his career as a
Trooper he received many awards and citations including the Superintendents Commendation for Extreme Courage, Trooper
of the Year Award and several Outstanding Performance Awards. He received a
disability retirement in 1995 and became
a Calvert County Deputy Sheriff and was
assigned to the County Courthouse for five
years. He was elected Sheriff in November,
2002 and upon completion of his current
Feature Story
13
term will complete 16 years in this role,

one of the longest tenures for any Sheriff in
recenthistory.
Evans has this holiday message concerning motorist safety for the upcoming
season:
Always buckle up.
Slow down during wet or snowy
conditions and do not use your
cruise control during these weather
conditions.
Dont drive distracted.
Avoid driving alone or at night; if
you need to drive at night park in a
well lighted area.
Remember headlights are required
by law while using windshield
wipers.
Keep all windows and doors locked
and closed.
Place all valuables in the trunk of
your vehicle at all times.
Designate a driver buzzed driving is drunk driving.
Report aggressive driving.

And if you see something, say
something.
A final note from the Sheriff: I would
like to thank the men and women of the
Calvert County Sheriffs Office for their
steadfast commitment for keeping Calvert
County a safe place to call home. I would
especially like to thank the citizens of Calvert County for your trust in my ability to
lead such a fine Office as your Sheriff. I
am proud to work for every citizen of the
County and look forward to my upcoming
election in 2018.

Who says 13 is not lucky? The 2016

fields.
This is a proud time for the Maryland
State Fair staff members who work hard
year-round to present high-quality, fun,

hundreds of thousands of fairgoers each
year, said Maryland State Fair General

Event/Competition Showcased During
the Fair. Award presented to the Maryland
