2014 Talbot County
Fair 4H / FFA
Livestock Auction
By: Thomas Reilly
The 2014 Talbot County Fair is fast
approaching with the first day being
Wednesday, July 9th and continuing to Saturday, July 12th the day of the Talbot
County 4-H/FFA Livestock Auction.
The Livestock Auction is a real big
deal for the 4-H and FFA exhibitors as they
put their prize animals on the auction block
in hopes of being rewarded for their hard
work and dedication to their 4-H Learning
Project of raising an animal.
This is where all of you come in. To
have a successful auction the 4-H and FFA
exhibitors need you ‘all to come out and
support them by bidding and buying their
animal. For those that have not attended,
here is how it works. The auction starts at
7pm in the Livestock Building at the back
of the Talbot Agricultural & Education
Center on Hiners Lane. So make plans to
come early and check out the animals while
the exhibitors wash and groom them. You
can then sign up at the ring side table and
get a number for bidding along with the
2014 Auction Program. Ask any questions
you have and then be prepared to have
some fun to benefit each 4-H Youth who
chooses to participate in the Auction.
There is stadium seating on a first
come basis with standing room available.
Once you are a successful bidder you
will be rewarded by a BIG smile and a
thank-you from a very grateful child who
receives the proceeds from your bid. Your
picture will be taken with the 4-H exhibitor
and the animal. The picture will be delivered to you at a later date after the auction.
All successful bidders have the opportunity to donate the animal back for resale
if they choose not to keep it.
Those that keep the animal the Livestock Auction Committee will arrange
transportation of that animal for you free of
charge so you do not have to handle it.
There are several USDA processing facilities in the area, just express your desire to
the Livestock Auction Committee before
leaving.
Animals donated back will be sold
again in a second round with the proceeds
going to “The Talbot County Youth Livestock Fund”. This Fund has been used in
support of maintenance and construction
Grass Cutting • Weed Wacking
Edging & Tilling • Mulching
Debris Removal • Tree Trimming
Hedge Pruning • Odd Jobs

The Sixteenth Annual Neavitt
Flea Market Has It All
The Neavitt Community Association
is hosting the sixteenth Annual Flea Market on Saturday, June 7th from 8:00am until
noon.
Over twenty vendors will be set up in
the Neavitt Park to offer a wide range of
items. In past years there have been outboard motors, housewares, books, boats,
lawn and garden tools, antiques, furniture
and lots of other treasures. Local artists
will display and sell pottery and Eastern
Shore non profits will be on hand to present
their interesting exhibits.
If all of the bargain hunting makes you
hungry, the Neavitt United Methodist
Church will be selling hot foods and baked
goods.
To reach Neavitt, take Route 33
through St. Michaels two miles to Route
579. Neavitt is located at the end of the
Bozman-Neavitt Road.
This year marks the 26th Anniversary
of the Cardboard Boat Races in Oxford,
Maryland to be held on the shores of the
Tred Avon River on Saturday, June 21st,
2014. The event is held in the shallow water
along The Strand so all contestants can push,
if necessary, their sunken sodden creations
around the course. But with the crafty skills
of some of the builders their exhibits of construction are most durable, some of the
crafts have been racing for over five years!
You can pre-register by mail, or register on
the day of the event (registration opens at
9:00 at The Strand). The first race begins at
11:00 and the event is over by approx. 1:30.
Overall, the event is held to have fun
and to raise a little money for Special
Olympics of Maryland and the Oxford
Community Center. Admission is free to the
public. Entrants are also encouraged to get
Donation Pledges from friends, neighbors,
colleagues and family to support the Special
Olympics of Maryland (see the Registration
Form online). For more information or to

“On the Shelf” and In the Community
By Terry Callahan
“I love reading! As a child I always
had my nose in a book. I think if you work
at a library you have to love to read,” says
Sabine Simonson, the Outreach Services/Volunteer Coordinator for the Talbot
County Free Library. In this role she coordinates ninety-three volunteers who are
“near and dear to my heart. They are all
fabulous people who give us a lot of their
valuable time.” She also is a Talbot County
Chamber of Commerce Ambassador and
hosts “On the Shelf”, an MCTV program
that features the library as well as other topics of community interest.
As part of the outreach initiatives,
Sabine makes sure she is very visible in the
community “because we believe the library
is an important part of our town – of any
community really. Any library should be an
integral part of the community because
everyone can come to the library and is
welcome. That’s why I try to be out many
different places and say, “Come! Here we
are!”
A “people person”, Sabine says, “ I
love helping our patrons; after a while you
get to know the regulars, you meet a lot of
people throughout the day and you get to
help them a great deal – finding the right

book, finding information, sometimes just
chatting with someone.”
A fun and interesting way that Sabine
promotes the library is via its Facebook
page. When she attends book festivals, she
asks authors (such as John Grisham, Steve
Berry and Michael Connolly) to have their
picture taken with her and a Talbot County
library card. She laughs and says, “No one
has ever turned me down yet.”
One of Sabine’s responsibilities is
adult programming. These programs cover
subjects as diverse as poetry, mental health,
books and, last month, maps of the Ukraine
showing its historical changes. Some programs are taped and run as segments for her
show, “On the Shelf”. Topics are chosen for
their broad appeal such as Maryland or
Chesapeake Bay history and their ability to
be shown on MCTV for a year or even
longer and stay timely.
Talking with people and putting them
at ease comes naturally to Sabine, and this
ability shows in her interviews. “I loved interviewing Sue Monk Kidd, author of The
Secret Life of Bees, and her daughter, Ann
Kidd Taylor. Despite being really famous
[published in over 30 countries and a successful Hollywood movie], she was totally
natural and so easy to talk to. The interview
looks just the way I was hoping it wouldthe three of us chatting with each other.
Jack Gantos, last year’s Newberry Medal
Award winner was great fun to interview –
he has a fantastic sense of humor – and
again, no huge ego. Now I am looking forward to interviewing Simon Toyne via
Skype since he lives in England – my first
international author. We have been talking
on Facebook quite a bit. He too seems to
have a great sense of humor and is easy to
talk to.”
Though Sabine writes a script for each
monthly taping, she, friend and co-host
Kathy Hanna from the Talbot County
Chamber of Commerce, and guests can be
more spontaneous. “It just makes it [the
show] fun,” says Sabine. “We have a good
time and do a one-take show.” As they talk
about upcoming programs and recommend
books and movies, they are also showing
that there is much more to the library and
the many services it offers.
Sabine serves as an ambassador, a liaison between the Chamber of Commerce
and businesses. “We ambassadors go to rib(continued on page 19)

bon cuttings to show our support for new
businesses; we have networking opportunities and welcome new businesses with a letter and a visit. Since the library is such an
important part of the town we thought
being part of the Chamber was important.
Easton has a large business community and
the library has all kinds of resources available for them”.
A good time to meet Sabine and rest of
the library staff is to come to Kaleidoscope
Day on Saturday, June 14 from 10am to
1pm. There will be free hotdogs, sno-cones,
popcorn and music, along with crafts for
both adults and children, presentations by
local organizations and much more.
After seven years as the Outreach
Services/Volunteer Coordinator, she still is
passionate about her job and her goals.
“Shoot for the moon; if you miss you’ll
land among the stars”, a favorite quote of
hers, accurately sums up Sabine Simonson.

Paper Rock Scissors Opens in St. Michaels
Paper Rock Scissors, a boutique retail
store and art gallery in St. Michaels is
housed inside a former flour mill, at 605
South Talbot Street, Unit 7 in the old mill
complex. Owners Liz Cowee and Cara
Gibbons-Neff have retained the space’s
original beams, posts and floors.
“The mill was a perfect rustic back
drop for our eclectic style, mixing and
matching old and new, East and West, luxe
and humble, showy and quiet,” Cowee said.
“We have filled our space with objects we
love and unique finds that strike our fancy.”
Paper Rock Scissors will offer handcrafted gifts, jewelry and décor from small
studio artisans across the world. Many
items are one of a kind. Items available include children’s bedding from a designer in

Both local artists, Cowee and Gibbons-Neff just love to make stuff. They

imaginative design.
Cowee designs jewelry for her own
line – Small Ant Workshop. Gibbons-Neff
draws, paints and experiments with other
mediums. Cowee and Gibbons-Neff plan to
offer adult and children craft classes and to
have local and visiting artists offer workshops. The boutique also will serve as a
full-time art studio for Cowee and GibbonsNeff.
A Talbot County native, Cowee studied jewelry design and fabrication at the
Gemological Institute of America and has
worked designing for several well-known
21
handcraft artists in California and Vermont.
Originally from Annapolis, Gibbons-Neff
studied creative writing and studio painting
at Old Dominion University. For the past
eight years she had been living in Scandinavia teaching art to preschoolers.

Idlewild Avenue in Easton. The construction project, totaling 60,000 square feet of
space, is expected to commence by the beginning of June 2014. It will consist of two
phases, the first of which is expected to be

Hospice of Queen Anne’s Marks 20th Anniversary of
Camp New Dawn
In August Hospice of Queen Anne’s
will mark the 20th year that Camp New
Dawn has been a refuge for children and
teens learning how to live with the loss of a
loved one.
Rhonda Knotts, MCC, grief counselor
for Hospice of Queen Anne’s and director
of Camp New Dawn, says, “Camp New
Dawn takes the essential ingredients of
summer camp - fun, food and friendship and adds activities that help children and
teens express what it feels like to lose
someone they love. ”
Knotts adds, “Children and teens are
often the forgotten mourners because they
grieve differently than adults. Camp New
Dawn can help these young people develop
healthy coping skills that will benefit them
throughout their lives.”
The 2014 dates for Camp New Dawn
are Saturday, August 9 through Monday,
August 11. During their weekend at Camp
Pecometh in Centreville, campers, who
range in age from 7 to 17, interact with pro-
“For the
Smile of a
Lifetime”

fessional grief counselors, who help them
learn about and express grief in a safe, natural environment.
This year, Camp New Dawn will continue for a third night on Monday, August
11, when family members join the campers
for an overnight family retreat.
The success of Camp New Dawn depends on a corps of adults who volunteer as
buddies for the campers. “Each camper is
paired up with an adult,” Knotts says.
“Some of our camp volunteers sign up because Hospice of Queen Anne’s or another
local hospice organization was there when
they and their families said goodbye to a
loved one.”
Courtney Williams, manager of volunteer and professional services for Hospice of Queen Anne’s, says, “Many buddies
come back year after year because they get
as much as they give from participating in
the camp activities.”
Williams adds, “We rely on other
adults to help with set up, clean up and the
many other jobs it takes to coordinate this
event.”
Adults who apply to volunteer at
Camp New Dawn must be 21years of age
or older and complete a training program
before camp begins.
The cost for each camper is $30. “No
child is turned away because of inability to
pay,” says Knotts. “We depend on donors
and sponsors to help us fund the cost of
Camp New Dawn so that everyone who
will benefit from the experience can attend.”
Camp New Dawn is one of the many
grief support programs offered by Hospice
of Queen Anne’s. For more information
about Camp New Dawn, contact Rhonda
Knotts, 443-262-4109, [email protected]. Learn about the full
program of grief support services offered

Benedictine Expands Partnership with
Division of Rehabilitation Services
Benedictine has been licensed by
Maryland’s Division of Rehabilitation
Services (DORS) to facilitate an eightweek training series in the hospitality industry. The first of four planned trainings,
the program emphasizes instruction on location with partnering businesses, public
facilities such as the library, and One-Stop
Career Center, as well as travel training
with Delmarva Community Transit. Since
2001 Benedictine’s Open Community
Adult Services has been a licensed provider
of vocational assessments for the DORS
serving transitional youth and adults from
the region.
Jessie Thomas, Supported Employment Manager for Benedictine, reached out
to DORS counselor Candace Henry to initiate planning for the program. “We are
grateful for the leadership from DORS and
local business managers,” Thomas said.
“This service, unique to the Eastern Shore,
would not be possible without the help and
collaboration of our partners.” Several local
businesses in the hospitality industry had
input on curriculum development or are
serving as host sites, including: Denny’s of
Easton, Best Western in Grasonville, the
Cambridge Hyatt, the Tidewater Inn, and
Provident State Bank of Preston.
E.C. Townsend, DORS Regional Director, recognizes the value of having a
training site in Easton. “We are hopeful
that Benedictine will continue to expand
DORS approved trainings for Eastern
Shore residents to ensure opportunities for
those local individuals unable to attend the
DORS operated Workforce and Technology
Center in Baltimore.” Benedictine invites
area businesses to consider a training partnership increasing the regional pool of
qualified, motivated potential employees.
Providing opportunity to live meaningful, productive lives in communities of
choice, Benedictine helps children and
adults with developmental disabilities reach
their greatest potential without regard to
race, religion, color, national origin, or age.

training at Benedictine’s Talbot satellite

Senior Financial Exploitation Workshop to
Educate About Risks Seniors Face
Financial scams targeting seniors have
become so prevalent that they’re now considered “the crime of the 21st century,” according to the National Council on Aging.
In addition, “The MetLife Study of Elder
Financial Abuse” reports that the annual financial loss by victims of elder abuse is estimated to be at least $2.9 billion, a 12%
increase since 2008.
On Friday, June 13, 2014, from 10am
to 2pm, Talbot County’s Senior Financial
Exploitation Task Force is hosting its second annual Financial Exploitation Workshop at the Talbot Senior Center at
Brookletts Place in Easton, MD. The workshop, which coincides with National Elder
Abuse Awareness Day that week, will educate the community about the risks and vulnerabilities that our seniors face,
particularly in regard to financial, Medicare
and insurance fraud and marketing scams.
The issue of financial exploitation by mail,
computer and phone is increasingly affecting seniors every day.
Awareness is key to preventing this
abuse. Seniors, children of seniors, caregivers and concerned citizens who want to
learn more about risks and vulnerabilities
seniors face today are encouraged to attend.
Topics for the workshop include financial
exploitation awareness, insurance and
Medicare fraud, adult protective services,

Stop Substance Abuse Early
The current increasing incidence and
prevalence of substance use among American adolescents is particularly distressing
as youth are five times more likely to develop a substance use disorder compared to
adults. And unfortunately, this disease can
(and frequently does) follow them for life:
only about 10 percent of substance dependence cases occur after adolescence.
Thus, successful efforts to prevent,
delay or minimize substance use during
adolescence are sorely needed. They are the

most economical and enduring way to reduce the many public health, safety, and
economical threats associated with addiction. And yet, as a country, we pay little attention to prevention, early intervention,
effective treatment or continuing care for
this age group. We pay little attention to
these issues for our kids.
Getting parents involved with their
child's lives is the main goal and preventative measure against drug use. And the
problem does not go away with high school
graduation. Although alcohol is the primary
drug of choice among college students, particularly those of traditional college age
(i.e., 18 to 25 years), over half of all college
students and young adults have tried an illicit drug at least once in their lifetime. Experimentation with substance use increases
during this period, particularly for those enrolled full time in college. In addition, although non-college bound 12th graders use
marijuana more than their college-bound
peers, marijuana use for college students
between 18 and 22 increases faster than for
non-college students the same age.
Early prevention of drug abuse and excessive alcohol use increases people’s
chances of living long, healthy, and productive lives. Excessive alcohol use includes binge drinking (i.e., five or more
drinks during a single occasion for men,
four or more drinks during a single occasion for women), underage drinking, drinking while pregnant, and alcohol impaired
driving.
Talbot Partnership for Alcohol and
Other Drug Abuse Preventions is encouraging parents to be on the lookout for signs
of substance abuse. If your child is using
drugs, he/she needs your help. Don't be
afraid to be a strong parent! If the problem
becomes too much for you to handle alone,
don't hesitate to seek professional help,
such as counseling, a support group or a
treatment program.
For further information on the dangers
of alcohol and other drugs, contact Talbot
Partnership at 410-819-8067. Please also
visit our website at www.talbotpartnership.org or find us on Facebook.
We must teach our children to
dream with their eyes open.

be held in the daytime from noon to midnight, as opposed to an overnight event that
was done in previous years, and is set to take
place on a Saturday, September 13, 2014 at
the Easton High School Warrior Stadium.
She believes that changing the day of the
week and the time of day will encourage
more participation from families and community members. The new location at the
high school provides a safe, level, and amply
lit environment for participants, along with
ease of access and parking.
She announced the theme for this year,
“Relighting Relay’s Spirit, Keep it Burning”,
reminding participants that their support is
important for our community and we want to
continue this event for many years to come.
Committee members are encouraging teams
to select an Olympic sport and country for
their costumes, spirit stick and table display.
Following Marshall’s introduction, the
entire audience participated in a 15 minute
physical activity led by Erin Fluharty from
Jazzercise of Easton which provided audience members with a sample of the entertainment and activities that are offered during
the Relay.
Dr. Roberta Lilly, Medical Director of
the UM Shore Regional Health Comprehensive Breast Center addressed the audience
and shared her personal experience with cancer. She detailed her role as caregiver for her
husband who passed away from prostate cancer. She encouraged participants to continue
to educate about screening for all cancers.
“Knowledge over disease makes you feel
like you have power over disease. We think if
we know about it, it can’t happen,” says
Lilly. “Someone once asked me if it ever got
to me, telling people they had breast cancer.
I realized it’s one of the better parts of my
day to tell people they have this diagnosis,
but it’s very treatable. I get to bring them
hope.”
Paula Larrimore, who has been participating in the Relay for 18 years, spoke about
why she chooses to Relay. Larrimore’s father
Victor was a 25 year survivor before passing
away from a second cancer in 2001. She said
that she was able to have her father around
growing up because of Cancer Research and
it is very meaningful to see more people
wearing purple survivor shirts at the Relay.
She is the accounting committee chair, manager of the event website and co-captain of
the Shore Regional Cancer Caregivers team.
Her hopes are that with the research funded
by Relay, that one day cancer would be eradicated.

A pot-luck luncheon provided refreshment to attendees prior to a closing ceremony
led by Chairwoman Robin Marshall. Marshall introduced each team and they proudly
paraded around luminaria bags that were
placed to represent the track at the Relay
event. Teams donned attire that corresponded
with their chosen Olympic Sport and Country, all while lifting the excitement and anticipation for this year’s event. Afterward,
group and individual team photos were taken
to document the kickoff.
While attendees said they look forward
to the social aspect of Relay, they participate
for a greater cause – to raise awareness of
and funds needed for cancer research. But
just as important, they walk to show their
support to those affected by cancer.
“It really does make a difference,” said
Robin Marshall, Chairwoman the event and
captain of the Hearts of Gold team. “You see
the results - you’re supporting people in our
community that have cancer. Relay shows
them they’re not alone.” “Relay helps families get through the hard times,” she said.
Robin has been participating in Relay for
Life for 7 years. She relay’s in memory of her
grandfather, father-in-law, sister-in-law, a
special cat “Chessie” and several friends,

whom have all died from cancer.
“I participate in Relay every year because cancer has personally affected my life
along with the people around me and someday I want to see it end,” she said. “It’s a fun
time and you raise a lot of money for a great
cause. I would like to see more people get involved for such a great cause.”
American Cancer Society spokeswoman Julia Foxwell said the Relay for Life
is a fun event where people can give something back to friends and loved ones.
“It’s a safe place to come and remember
people who lost their battle to cancer or come
and celebrate people still with us today,”
Foxwell said.
Foxwell’s personal experience with can-
cer started when she was 8 and her mom received her first breast cancer diagnosis. The
disease continued to follow her around “like
the villain in a cartoon” affecting classmates,
friend, colleagues and even friend’s children.
“I am grateful for the opportunity to make a
difference in the treatment of the disease and
those who are living with it” said Foxwell.
The goal is to raise $37,000 to help cancer patients in the Talbot County area.

Annual Resource Parent
Conference Highlights
Readying Foster Teens
for the World
The Mid-Shore Departments of Social
Services recently sponsored a day-long
conference at Chesapeake College designed to help resource (foster) parents
learn strategies for building on family
strengths and develop an expertise for
readying foster teens for adulthood.
Keynote speaker Sydney Harrison, a
former foster and adopted youth, talked
about the loving guidance he received from
his adoptive parents, who taught him about
the power of love and compassion and
helped him re-establish a relationship with
his birth mother. In addressing 125 foster
and adoptive parents in the room, Harrison
said, “Each and every child has a beautiful
light and something to offer this world. It
is up to each and every one of you to bring
this out in them.”
Conference workshops included social
media safety, confronting conflict, mental
health issues, and human trafficking of children and teens. A workshop titled “Ready
by 21: The Future of Our Teens,” equipped
resource parents with strategies to better
prepare foster teens for independent living
and adulthood. Ready by 21 is a statewide
initiative of the Maryland Department of
Human Resources (DHR) to connect foster
youth age 14 to 21 with services and resources to ensure when they leave foster
care they have stable housing, a job or are
in school, health care, positive credit, and
a mentor. To accomplish these goals, DHR
and the mid-shore counties have started
several new initiatives:
Thrive@25: DHR, in partnership with

the University of Maryland School of Social Work, secured a federal planning grant
to develop an intervention for foster youth
at-risk of homelessness in five Eastern
Shore counties and evaluate the RB21
framework. The initiative launched in January 2014.
Open Table: This initiative connects
volunteer mentors from local churches with
transitioning foster care youth to help them
develop positive relationships and build a
sense of community. Six tables have been
formed in less than a year.
There is a continued need in the Midshore area for additional foster families.
For convenience, training is provided
throughout the region. For further information about becoming a foster parent, call

early literacy program. The program provides children birth to age five with a free
brand new, age-appropriate book through
the mail each month. By receiving books
directly at their homes, all children have the

those who have been read to. Many of
these children are never able catch up and
end up dropping out of school.
Cristy Morrell, Francesca Wiseman,
Karen Broujos, Kimberly Baker, and Liz
Connelly started the local chapter last June
with the hopes of making sure all of Talbot
County’s preschool children had the opportunity to own new, engaging books regardless of their family’s income.
The
challenge was two-fold, raising enough
money for books and getting preschool age
children enrolled in the program.
Key partnerships with the local libraries, the Judy Center, the Chesapeake
Multicultural Center, schools, churches and
many other organizations as well as providing registration tables at a number of
area events, has enabled ILTC to register
800 children in the first year. This challenge of funding the first year was met from
a variety of grants as well as individual donations from the local community.

"Walk a little slower Daddy" said a little child so small.
"I'm following in your footsteps and I don't want to fall.
Sometimes your steps are very fast, sometimes they're hard to see;
So walk a little slower Daddy, for you are leading me.
Someday when I'm all grown up, you're what I want to be.
Then I will have a little child who'll want to follow me.
And I would want to lead just right, and know that I was true;
So, walk a little slower, Daddy, for I must follow you!!"

Local Writer and
Renowned
Structural Engineer
Write New Book
Renowned structural engineer, educator, and mentor Charles H. Thornton, PhD
PE of Easton and local writer Amy Blades
Steward of Easton recently co-authored a
new book that was released this month entitled, Charles H. Thornton: A Life of Elegant Solutions.
Dr. Thornton was a founding principal
and former chairman of the structural engineering company Thornton Tomasetti.
Over the last 30 years, he has engineered
some the world’s tallest and most innovative structures through “disruptive innovation.” He has been an adjunct professor at
The Cooper Union, Pratt Institute, Manhattan College, Princeton University, and
Catholic University. He founded the ACE
Mentor Program, a nationwide non-profit
organization offering guidance and training
in architecture, construction and engineering to more than 40,000 inner city high
school students in 106 cities across the
United States. Talbot County high school
students participate in the program.
He comments, “After being featured
by Jane Pauley on the monthly NBC
TODAY Show, “Your Life Calling” for
the ACE Mentor Program and reading
Jane’s own autobiography, entitled Skywriting: a Life Out of the Blue, I realized it
was time to write my memoir.”
The next step was to find a writer to
help Thornton get his words on paper.
Steward, who in 2007 founded Steward
Writing and Communications, a public relations firm in Easton, MD, has written
non-fiction articles for national, regional,
and local publications for over 30 years.
Thornton comments about Steward, a lifelong storyteller, “Amy was the stimulus
who got me revved up to start my book.
She took the time to really interest herself
in my life and has made the production of
this book her ‘Elegant Solution’.”
The memoir about Thornton’s life is a
guide for professionals seeking to succeed
in business, young engineers moving up the
company ladder, graduate students facing a
635
(continued on pg 51)
50
(continued from page 50)
master’s or PhD thesis, college students
coping with the rigors of an engineering
program, and high school students looking
toward college and a career. His 15-Steps
to Success help business owners to plan and
reach higher goals. His mantra – “Passion,
Persistence, and Flexibility” – has transcended all aspects of his career and personal life. His story inspires others to
pursue their life’s passion and seek their
own elegant solutions to the challenges life
presents – and to have fun along the way.
The memoir’s cover features an image
of Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur,
Malaysia, one of the world’s tallest buildings designed by Thornton and completed
in 1996, and includes an image of Thornton with a group of ACE students. It was
designed by graphic designer Deirdre Devlin Kelly of Easton and Conner Dorbin of
Easton, Amy’s son and a 12th grader at
Easton High School in the school’s graphic
arts completer program and a participant in
the ACE Mentor Program.
Proceeds from the book will go to the
ACE Mentor Program to grow its scholarships for high school students. To date,
ACE has awarded more than $14 million in
scholarships to students nationwide.
Thornton lives in Easton with his wife
Carolyn. Steward lives in Easton with her
husband, Eric, and children Conner and
Andrew. Charles H. Thornton: A Life of Elegant Solutions is available through Amazon at alifeofelegantsolutions.com.
Thornton and Steward are holding a
book signing at The News Center in Easton, MD on Saturday, June 14, from 10am
to 2pm. For further information, contact
Amy Steward at 410-829-0436.

title, this in-depth conversation will share
their insights on beauty and biodiversity,
plants and pollinators, and new design
strategies for personal gardens both large
and small.
The home garden is often seen as separate from the natural world surrounding it.
In truth, it is just one part of a larger landscape made up of many living layers. The
replacement of rich layers of native flora
with turf grass greatly diminishes a garden’s biological diversity and ecological
functions. In The Living Landscape, Darke
and Tallamy seek to reverse this trend by
showing gardeners how to create a landscape that is full of life.
The three-part program includes

Leila and
Lessons of Love
By Guiding Eyes for the Blind volunteer
puppy raiser, Susan Fuller
They say it takes a village to raise a
child and for sure the same thing can be
said about raising a service dog, particularly one trained to help an autistic child.
Last week we celebrated with that village.
Leila is the second dog my daughter,
Winnie, raised for Guiding Eyes for the
Blind. Her first dog, Henna, was a happygo-lucky free-spirited bundle of energy that
literally bounded into a room.
Leila could not be more opposite.
Leila was always a quiet and composed old
soul, even as a puppy. Even her kisses were
gentle and carefully measured. We always
joked that she took her job as a service dog
in training very seriously, always the consummate professional.
She did very well in guide dog training (no surprise!), but a series of minor
though persistent health issues caused the
vets to decide she wouldn’t be a good
match with a blind person, who couldn’t
make a good visual assessment of her. Thus
she moved into the Heeling Autism pro-
gram at Guiding Eyes for the Blind, where
she thrived.
Leila spent over a year learning to be a
companion to an autistic child. She learned
how to be tethered to a child, she went to
various schools to learn how to settle in a
classroom full of activity, and she went on
many outings to Target and other places
learning how to shop with a cart in a
crowded store. Her many, many training activities were all designed to make her the
54
perfect and steadfast friend for a child who
needed her.
The idea behind service dogs for kids
with autism is to help keep them safe and
help them better relate to the world. In a
practical sense, the dog is tethered to the
child while out and about and learns to act
as an anchor if the child tries to run away
(autistic kids often lack an understanding
of danger). In an emotional sense, the dog
(continued on page 55)
(continued from page 54)
forms a strong, loving bond with the child
and offers them comfort, security, and a
way of engaging with the world around
them.
The highlight of her training for us
(besides hearing she was graduating, of
course) was finding out that she was moved
from the kennels to live with a foster family. Living with the foster family gave Leila
the chance to get back into the daily rhythm
and routine with kids, and she was lucky
enough to live with a family with two wonderful children. We called Olivia, the girl
she played with, watched TV with, hiked
with, even slept with, “Leila’s practice
girl.”
Our hearts filled with joy every single
time we got a picture of Leila and Olivia,
clearly they were an excellent training
team. And finally, word came that Leila
was matched with a nine year old girl with
autism. Leila would be going to her forever
family with an important job to do.
But first, there was a graduation ceremony to attend.
To say a Heeling Autism graduation is
emotional is an understatement. There
were about 50 people at the graduation,
ranging from the recipient families, the
puppy raisers (like Winnie), the foster families (like Olivia’s), and the staff and trainers involved in preparing these amazing
dogs for service.
No one warns you about what ensues
(and that’s probably for the better). The tables are arranged in a large square around
the room, so everyone has a view of everyone else and the dogs (who settle perfectly
under the tables, of course).
Then they bring out the microphone
and that’s the beginning of the end (at least
if you’re wearing eye makeup). While
passing the microphone around, each person has a chance to talk about why they’re
there, how they got involved and what role
they played in the lives of these graduating
pups. One of the guide dog trainers said it
best. “Rather than an invitation, they should
just send every person a box of tissues with
the day and time to show up. That would
probably get the point across,” she said.
Whew, it was intense. But intense in
such a good way. It’s intense to hear the
stories from parents of these autistic children who have struggled for so long. It’s
intense to hear from all the raisers and
trainers who put their hearts into teaching
these dogs to be angels on earth. It’s intense
to hear about how these kids react to meet-
ing their dogs for the first time. And it’s
most intense having the chance to reflect on
how incredibly lucky I am to be in the role
of puppy raiser rather than recipient.
Meeting Leila’s new family was just
incredible. They are the sweetest, most sincere and appreciative family you can imagine and within a few minutes of us meeting
they asked if we were on Facebook so we
could keep up with Leila’s adventures with
their daughter. This means the world to us.
It lets us not say goodbye to the puppy Winnie raised, trained and socialized, but instead watch this new chapter in Leila’s life
unfold and cheer her on with her new family.
Guiding Eyes for the Blind’s Delmarva Region is actively looking to recruit
new puppy raisers on the Eastern Shore. To

The One That
Got Away
By: Bob Perks
http://www.BobPerks.com
It was overcast and dreary. One of those
days when you'd like to stay in bed and
watch old movies all day. I was searching for
something. But I'm always searching. I'm
like a scavenger looking for stuff that no one
else sees.
I headed out to the nearby state park
figuring that I could get away from the busy
world and focus on the real stuff that life is
made of. When my Dad was alive he often
headed to this park just to sit and watch people. My parents made me a "people
watcher." A big treat for me was to head to
the local drug store with them and have an
ice cream soda and then sit in the car in front
of the shopping center and just watch people walk by.
But I went to the park this time to get
away from people. I just wanted to listen to
what was going on inside me. I walked down
to the edge of the lake and stood inside this
covered pavilion where a few old picnic tables sat waiting for the summer folk. The
squirrels ran from tree to tree scampering

about filled with excitement.
A few geese paddled by watching me
carefully, not sure if I came to offer them a
slices of yesterday's bread. They hesitated
now, but as the summer crowds fill the park
the geese and ducks become quite brazen as
they intrude upon the picnic areas like street
gangs almost threatening the visitors to share
the goodies.
But for now we kept our distance. They
had this look that seemed to say, "Oh, he's
only a dreamer. Probably a writer at worst.
They have nothing to give but themselves."
They moved on.
Off along the shoreline, at a point that
seemed too narrow to venture on to, I could
see an woman. She sat quietly with little

movement. I assumed like me, she was in retreat from the world. A light rain began to
fall and speckled the calmness of the water
interrupting my glassy stare at the reflection
of the gray clouds. It reminded me that life is
often interrupted just when things are calm
and we get too settled into it. I guess as I
look back at it all, those times offered challenges for growth. Although, at the time, I
saw no real value at all.
Having been lost in thought for a few
minutes, I didn't notice that the woman had
moved away from her perch at the lake's
edge. I scanned the area and found her sitting close by on a fallen tree trunk under one
of the many tall pines. The rain for now, had
ended.
"What is it they say about rainy days
and Mondays?" she said as she sat with her
head bowed down.
"Always get me down!" I yelled over to
her in reply. Words from a song I had tucked
away in my memory.
"Well as my Daddy always said, this is
"The one that got away." she said as she
lifted and turned her head toward me.
"Your father was a fisherman?" I asked.

"Yes, every where he went." she said.
"My Uncle Al carried fishing equipment in his trunk and would pull over whenever he found a lake or creek. He had a
license in about four states including New
Jersey, where he lived." I told her.
"No, my Daddy didn't fish in lakes and
streams. He was what the Bible called a
"Fisher of Men." He was a preacher." She
58
seemed to hold her head high and proud as
she spoke about him.
"He always considered a day lost when
he could not make a difference in someones
life. He called it "The one that got away."
"So, you're feeling like you lost this
one?" I asked.
(continued on page 59)
(continued from page 58)
"I'm afraid I've lost a whole bunch of
them." she said as she turned her back to the
lake. "I can't seem to get back to the way I
was before. I was always upbeat and motivated. I think I often overwhelmed people
with my positive spirit. It concerned me at
first until one day my co-workers said they
depended on me to be that way. It seems a
lot of people did."
"So, what happened?" I asked not expecting a straight answer. It really wasn't any
of my business.
"My husband's business all but collapsed. He made some poor choices and
everything we had seemed to vanish." she
said as she walked closer to me.
"Forgive me for asking such a personal
question. But was your love for each other a
part of the business?"
"What do you mean?" she asked.
"This road to self destruction that you
seem to be on leads me to believe that you've
forgotten that your love for each other is far
more valuable than the business or mistakes
made. It appears to me that, like this lake,
everything was smooth and wonderful until
it rained" I said. "You can either look at the
business failure as something that has taken
away from your relationship or like the rain
on the lake, added to it."
She had tears in her eyes as she stood
there looking so helpless and lost.
"But it was a side of him I never saw.
He made reckless choices. Our life isn't the
same because of it" she said.
"This isn't the one that got away" I said.
"You're throwing this one back because it's
the wrong size. Like the fisherman you toss
it back...it's too small."
"As a fisher of men, your Daddy went
after the big and the little challenges. Those
days when one seemed to have gotten away
he found strength in the love he had in his
life. The love of his family and the love for
God. He would not permit defeat and poor
judgment to ever diminish that love. Love is
always the answer" I continued. "Here's a
better song. 'Love. Love will keep us together.'"
"Don't tell me. You're a preacher" she
said.
"No. But I was told that I am a 'fisher
of men." I replied.
"Well, I believe my Daddy sent you
here. Good catch!" she said as she smiled.
"What bait do you use?"
"A little caring, a bit of trust, and a lot
of faith, I guess" I replied.
"Well, I'm a believer" she said.
"So am I. 'I believe in YOU!'"

Senior Financial Exploitation Workshop Scheduled for June 13
Financial scams targeting seniors have
become so prevalent that they’re now considered “the crime of the 21st century,” according to the National Council on Aging. In
addition, “The MetLife Study of Elder Financial Abuse” reports that the annual financial loss by victims of elder abuse is
estimated to be at least $2.9 billion, a 12%
increase since 2008.
On Friday, June 13, 2014, from 10am
to 2pm, Talbot County’s Senior Financial
Exploitation Task Force is hosting its second
annual Financial Exploitation Workshop at
the Talbot Senior Center at Brookletts Place
in Easton, MD. The workshop, which coincides with National Elder Abuse Awareness
Day that week, will educate the community
about the risks and vulnerabilities that our
seniors face, particularly in regard to financial, Medicare and insurance fraud and marketing scams. The issue of financial
exploitation by mail, computer and phone is
increasingly affecting seniors every day.
Awareness is key to preventing this abuse.
Seniors, children of seniors, caregivers and
concerned citizens who want to learn more
about risks and vulnerabilities seniors face
today are encouraged to attend.
The event is sponsored by a task force
comprised of local professionals from The
Talbot Bank, the State Health Insurance Program (SHIP/SMP), Home Instead Senior
Care, Talbot County Department of Social
Services, the Maryland Insurance Administration, and Edward Jones. Lunch will be
provided.

Pea Patch Island Bus Trip
On Saturday, June 7, 2014, AAUW (The
American Association of University Women)
is sponsoring a trip to Delaware City, Pea
Patch Island, and lunch and sightseeing in
Chesapeake City. The bus will leave from
Easton and arrive at Fort Delaware State Park,
Delaware City. Fort Delaware, the Union
fortress dating back to 1859, once housed
Confederate prisoners of war. It was originally
built to protect the ports of Wilmington and
Philadelphia. From there the group will board
a ferry to Pea Patch Island which is an historic
Civil War living site. A jitney will provide
transport from the island dock to the granite
and brick fortress. Here, costumed interpreters
take us back to the summer of 1864. We’ll
have an opportunity to help the blacksmith
hammer out new parts for a cannon, or work
with the laundress. We will be on hand when
the 8-inch Columbiad gun fires a live gun
powder charge and see a replica of Pea Patch
Island as it appeared in 186. We will ferry
back and board a bus for the ride to Chesapeake City and lunch at Chesapeake City
Restaurant & Marina. There will be free time
to walk to shops & sightseeing in Chesapeake
City.
The bus will leave from the Easton Firehouse parking lot at 7:30am, and leave from
Chesapeake City at approximately 4:30pm arriving in Easton at 6:00pm. The cost is $85.
Call 410-763-8265 for reservations and choice
of luncheon entrée: Stuffed Flounder, London
Broil or Chicken Marsala. Choice of salad or
soup will be made at the restaurant. Dessert,
bread/rolls and beverages are included.
