E-5 Thursday, June 19, 2014 GREENBELT – The mayor and city council have decided to have city staff draft a new policy to protect children from sexual abuse after a city resident demanded stricter measures. City Manager Michael McLaughlin will begin drafting new policies for city government and administration to better inform employers and residents of citizens who have been accused of possessing child pornography, Mayor Emmett Jordan said. Guidelines must be set to balance protection of children and the justice employed by the legal system, he said. The council agreed unanimously Monday night on expanding community educational programs regarding child sexual abuse. The mayor and council began discussing changes to city policies after reviewing a petition from resi- dent John Abell who discovered a Greenbelt resident had been convicted for possessing child pornography in August 2012, but continued working at a public library. Former Greenbelt resident David Hartley, 51, pleaded guilty to 11 counts of child pornography after being arrested in December 2011. According to his petition, Abell became concerned because the Greenbelt News Review had not covered the story. After finding out about Hartley, Abell wrote a petition to council members in October 2012 asking them to implement additional safety measures and encourage transparency about the crimes. “I can only guess why there was a silence,” Abell said. “It’s a small town and no one wanted to talk about this kind of issue. I think there was a shared consensus that there was no need to discuss this Please see “Greenbelt,” page 1 PHOTO BY YEVGENIY TRAPEZNIKOV The Crawdaddies entertained the crowd at the Hyattsville Summer Jam Series.

Opponents fight “miles traveled” tax By Kelsey Sutton Special to the Sentinel ANNAPOLIS – After feeling the heat from last year’s gas tax hike, some Marylanders fear another tax increase — this time a fee based on how many miles they drive. The legislation, which would tax motorists for every mile they drive, was considered by the Maryland Department of Transportation earlier this year. While it was not implemented, it has also has not been ruled out as an option in the future with the state looking to generate more revenue to cover transportation projects, said Erin Henson, public affairs director for MDOT. “It’s not something we currently see as a viable option...but never say never,” she said.

Goring Special to the Sentinel UPPER MARLBORO – Tanisha Ashford knows kidney disease well. Ashford’s late father and fiancé both experienced the disease. When her father was diagnosed, she donated one of her kidneys to him. The experience, she said, was a powerful one for both of them. “When we found out that he had kidney disease, I was very diligent in trying to get him into any programs or studies that I could find in dealing with kidney disease and trying to find a cure for it,” Ashford said. “One of the biggest things we wanted to prevent was having him going on dialysis. So it was a nobrainer for me to get tested. I was a match so we proceeded with the transplant and afterwards he was great.” Ashford’s father died in 2012. Despite living with one kidney, Ashford said she is completely healthy. “I don’t have any illness,” Ash- ford said. “I maintain a vigilant health screening of my kidney every year.” Ashford’s fiancé, Tony Simms, is currently on dialysis and on the waiting list for a kidney transplant. “He seems to have a lot of his energy back, his appetite has come back and things of that nature,” she said. “So what I can see from what he’s telling me he’s doing very well.” To support the fight against kidney disease, Ashford and her fiancé plan on participating in Kidney Action Day—an event started by the American Kidney Fund in collaboration with local residents to raise awareness of the disease. Kidney Action Day will take place at the Prince George’s Sports and Learning Complex in Landover on Saturday, June 21. “Kidney Action Day is a funfilled, family-friendly event with a serious purpose and that’s letting folks to know about the risk for kidney disease,” said Tenee Hawkins, senior director of communications and marketing for the American Kidney Fund. Attendees will have opportunities for free kidney health screenings, Hawkins said. They can also participate in cooking demonstrations with healthy food samples as well as interactive fitness demos. “Nine out of 10 people who have early kidney disease don’t know they have it,” Hawkins said. “It has few warning signs in the early stages.” Most cases of kidney disease can be prevented, Hawkins said, because 75 percent of all cases of kidney disease are caused by diabetes or high blood pressureIf those conditions are detected early and managed, she said, in many cases the disease can be slowed down or even prevented. Dr. Matthew Poffenroth, an internal medicine physician with Johns Hopkins Community Physicians in Bethesda, said kidney disease is very serious but preventable and treatable but not curable without a transplant. “If we’re talking in-stage renal disease, once the kidney fails they’re essentially useless and the body cannot regenerate them,” said Poffenroth. “So the only option once you’ve gotten to end stage renal disease the only option is to replace those kidneys with a machine such as dialysis or with another kidney through transplant.” Hawkins said the rate for those with kidney disease in the D.C. metropolitan area is about twice the national average so awareness of the disease is important. “Kidney Action Day is definitely a day that we want to impact this high-risk community and not just let them know what their numbers are but give them actions and steps they can take after the day,” Hawkins said. Ashford said she is excited to participate in Kidney Action Day again because she had a good time last year. “We participated for the first time last year and we won a little plaque for having the largest team there. We had t-shirts made that said ‘Team Tony’. We had a mascot,” Ashford said. “It was a really great day and I think Tony was very overwhelmed with how many people came to support him in his fight against kidney disease.” Raising awareness is important, Ashford said, because many people are aware of cancer but do not even think about kidney disease. When attending the event last year, Ashford said she tried everything including the health screenings and healthy food cooking demonstrations. “I was dragging people around to the different stations saying, ‘Taste this.’ and ‘Try this,’” she said. “A part of me was overly happy and a little part of me was sad because my dad wasn’t there to experience it.” Ashford said everyone should attend the event because it awareness is important. “What I tell people is come out and have a good day of fun,” Ashford said. “We have fellowship together, we pray together and we also educate ourselves on diseases that are very rampant in our African American community.” County helping homeowners make smart decisions By Savannah Tanbusch Special to the Sentinel Will you Subscribe to The Sentinel?

Curry Sports and Learning Complex Saturday. “We couldn’t continue to do this without participation,” said County Executive Rushern L. Baker III. “Prince George’s County: Great Place to Live!” featured a number of booths offering information about foreclosure and programs like the Maryland Mortgage Buyers Program, designed to help first-time house and lower-income buyers make smart decisions in purchasing a home. A number of counselors and pro bono attorneys were available to offer advice to those facing who are facing foreclosure on their homes. Electioneerers lined the street leading up to the complex and hundreds of signs covered the grassy areas. Porsha and Kamani Hartwell won a four-bedroom, single-family house in District Heights when Bak- er pulled the winning ticket for the $225,000 home. “It’s always one of my favourite things to raffle off a house that I could not afford to buy,” said Baker. Housing director Raymond Skinner announced the Maryland Home Buyers Credit program, which could allow home buyers to save up to $2,000 a year in taxes. “It’s been around nationally for a while, but we just started it here in Maryland,” said Skinner. “So we are really very excited about that.” Skinner encouraged homeowners in foreclosure trouble to receive help from the many booths.

Both internal and external respondents said the two most important skills students need for 21st century success are mastery of reading and mastery of communication skills. The biggest challenge respondents said PGCPS must address is recruiting and retaining qualified staff. The surveys also included open-ended questions, which PGCPS Performance Director Lisa Price said revealed the eagerness of respondents to have their voices heard. “The volume of responses from this was just incredible,” Price said. “It was as if folks were waiting to be asked their opinion and they really shared a lot with us.” The strategic plan includes a visual strategy map with the tagline “Great schools, great staff, great community, great by choice,” which Joseph said reflects the importance of quality schools. “As we look at our tagline we recognize that our stakeholder feedback revealed a strong belief that great schools not only result in outstanding academic achievement but they also contribute to a great county and a great community,” Joseph said. The school system is using the plan to focus on five areas: academic excellence, high performing workforce, safe and supportive environments, family and community engagements, and organization ef- Longtime fireman retires By Jim Davis Special to the Sentinel GREENBELT – Many children dream of becoming firemen when they grow up. For Jeff Pinkett that dream has been a reality, now he is retiring after almost 30 years of running into burning buildings. As a child, Pinkett said his mother used to drive him to firehouses in Washington, D.C.and Baltimore so he could look at the fire trucks and visit the firemen. Pinkett recalls visiting firehouses in New York City while visiting his aunt to check out the fire engines. "When Jeff was able to drive he went everywhere—Baltimore, New Yorkand downtown D.C.—to see his firemen friends,” said Bobbie, Pinkett’s mother. Pinkett began his career as a volunteer firefighter at the Silver Hill Volunteer Fire Department. After four years volunteering he took a job in the Prince George's CountyFire Department. After spending several months in probationary school, or “probie school,” as Pinkett calls it, he was appointed to the Seat Pleasant Volunteer Fire Department. Pinkett transferred to the Silver Hill Volunteer Fire Department for a few years and then worked at the Hillside Volunteer Fire Department until the company disbanded. “The first time I met Jeff it was at a house fire in Seat Pleasant. I was told to search a top floor bedroom for a trapped person,” said Rich Rahally. “I searched the bedroom and could not find anyone. I looked out a window, and there was Jeff carrying out a woman.” "When you say the word fireman you are talking about Jeff,” Prince George's County Fire Chief Marc Bashoor said at a luncheon to honor Pinkett. “He was a true fireman in every way. Jeff knows what brotherhood is in the fire service and he portrays that brotherhood every day. He is always there to do what it takes to get the job done. He will be missed.” Pinkett said fighting fires is challenging, especially when the fire is at the top of an apartment rather than at a ground-level home. “You still have to get to the fire and put it out,” Pinkett said. Of all the things he will miss about firefighting, Pinkett said the thing he will miss most is the camaraderie he and his coworkers shared. "I am going to miss going to fires, having meals with my crew, sitting around with the firehouse telling stories and having a good time," Pinkett said. “Now that I am retiring, I am not going to stop going to fires. I will be listening to the radio and if there is a big fire, I will be there.” Your life is 24 hours a day, seven days a week. So is ours. www.thesentinel.com fectiveness. Board Member Curtis Valentine said he has studied several school systems and thinks it is important the school system has a clear mission statement which can be easily understood by everyone. “The most effective (statements) are the ones where the mission of the school system can be articulated from the top all the way down to those who are rank and file,” he said. “The custodial worker, the lunch lady, the teacher the principal, there is a common language of we are here to do something and here’s how I fit into it. The idea that I’m not just doing a small role everyday but that I’m a part of a much larger process.” Valentine also said he wants to see parents take a more active role in improving their child’s academic achievement. “Over the course of a child’s life they spend 15 percent of time at our schools and 55 percent of time at home and in the community,” he said. “I would say the numbers aren’t going to move if were not seeing more parental involvement at home over the summer, nights and weekends. The impact of parents on our school system has to be elevated.” The board will spend the summer working on planning the implementation of the strategic plan, including reviewing performance indicators and annual targets to help track the improvement of the school system. Coach accused of sexual abuse indicted By Kelsey Sutton Special to the Sentinel UPPER MARLBORO — A former special education teacher and head football coach has been indicted by a grand jury on one count of the sex abuse of a minor. Andre Leonard Brown, who worked at High Point High School in Beltsville since February 2002, was arrested last month after a 10th grader told officials she and Brown had sex during homecoming weekend in Sept. 2013. The student was 17 at the time of the encounter, below the state’s legal age of consent. Brown was 32 years old at the time. When interviewed by authorities, Brown admitted to the sexual relationship, which he said took place on school property in the boys’ football locker room, according to charging documents. His bail was set at $75,000, but he is out on bond. He has also been put on administrative leave from the school, which is protocol for the school system, according to Prince George’s County Public Schools spokesman Max Pugh. PGCPS denied a Maryland Public Information Act request for how many times Brown has previously been put on administrative leave, citing personnel reasons. Brown has previously been charged with driving on a suspended license prior to his May arrest. Brown played football at High Point High School and graduated from the school in the late 1990s. He coached the football team last fall to a 2-8 record. Brown is due in Prince George’s County Circuit Court for an arraignment July 3, according to the State’s Attorney’s Office. See news?

When Pounds responded Aug. 2, 2013, he refused to provide the information to Ely, saying the town did not have any of the records because the speed cameras were managed by Brekford Corporation, an outside entity. According to transportation article §21-809 of the Maryland code, a speed camera operator must fill out and sign a daily set-up log for a speed monitoring system and keep the records on file. The speed cameras must also undergo an annual calibration check performed by an independent calibration laboratory and keep the signed certificate of calibration on file. According to Judge Albert Northrop’s order, Morningside “failed to maintain the requested records, conduct a reasonable search for the records, or provide [Ely] with the name and possible location of a possible custodian,” pursuant to the law. “If Respondent had been compliant this lawsuit would not have been necessary,” Northrop wrote in the court order. Ely is also entitled to collect counsel fees and other court costs incurred during the lawsuit, Northrop wrote. Since Ely made his request, Morningside has shut down its speed camera program indefinitely after not renewing its contract with Brekford. The decision “had nothing to do with this lawsuit and it had nothing to do with performance,” Pounds said in a previous report by The Sentinel. The judge’s decision could affect other jurisdictions, Ely said. “What it means is that (jurisdictions) have to be transparent,” Elysaid. “The court has made clear in the public interest ensuring that the public has access to information about these programs.” Pounds did not respond to repeated requests for comment. Opponents call tax “regressive” Greenbelt council votes to tighten policies From “tax” page 4 somewhere between 10,000 and 12,000 miles every year, and more than 90 percent of Maryland drivers are commuters, according to U.S. Census data. A vehicle miles traveled tax would implement a flat tax per mile driven, and as it was considered by MDOT would be tacked on to the existing gas tax. Oregon started an annual pilot program in 2006 where volunteers participate in the program for one year. The state places a GPS in participants’ vehicles to monitor how many miles they have driven. The participants pay the tax at the gas pump, but they were exempt from the state’s fuel tax. According to the Oregon Department of Transportation volunteers pay a 1.5 cent charge per mile driven. Fourteen states, including Oregon, have tried a pilot program. The potential cost of a vehicle miles traveled tax in Maryland has some people fighting to get it banned before it is ever implemented. “This type of tax would have a big negative impact on small businesses,” said Jessica Cooper, director of the Maryland arm of the National Federation of Independent Business. “A lot of small businesses are delivery businesses or use vehicles to provide their services.” A tax would cause small businesses to put the burden of the cost on consumers which would harm the economy, Cooper said. “This type of a tax would essentially tax people for leaving their homes,” she said. “You are taxing people who move from their homes, which means fewer people are going to be going out to eat or going shopping. The ripple effects could be really damaging.” In February, Del. Justin Ready (R-5A) introduced a bill which would have prohibited any vehicle miles traveled taxes from being passed, but it failed. Ready said the tax is regressive because it would have an unfair affect on working-class families and workers while not drastically affecting people with higher incomes, he said. “Marylanders are overtaxed already,” Ready said. “Funds are not being used to help commuters, but to hurt them.” Opponents have also raised privacy concerns because the Department of Transportation could require government-mandated GPS devices to track the number of miles motorists are traveling. Cooper called the idea “crazy.” “It’s really troubling to consider the government tracking where you drive and where you go,” Ready said. “So I tried to preempt it.” Although his bill failed to pass Ready said he is prepared to introduce legislation as many times at it takes to get prevent the tax from happening. “We need to stand firmly against any mandatory tracking for taxation purposes,” Ready said. in wake of resident’s petition From “Greenbelt” page 1 terrible crime.” Abell said he wants the council to require people being investigated for possessing or creating child pornography to be revealed to the public for transparency purposes. According to Greenbelt Police Capt. Thomas Kemp, Hartley was found in possession of more than 100 images of child pornography. According to court documents, Hartley continued to work as front desk clerk at the library even after his arrest. Councilman Edward Putens said he was concerned about the time Hartley remained employed while the public was unaware of the gravity of his charges. Councilwoman Leta Mach said she thought Abell’s demands to notify city employers when charges are filed might be unfair to individuals, especially if allegations turned out to be untrue. “Disseminating information about related allegations may not only open the city liable to slander but also possibly prejudice the case and prevent getting the conviction,” Mach said. Kemp said detectives interviewed Hartley’s supervisors at the library and determined Hartley’s work did not include private and direct contact with children. “As long as we determine there is no specific threat to a child involved or ongoing threat that we need to publicize that information, our guidelines state that we wait until person is found innocent or guilty and then we prepare a press release,” Kemp said. Laura Kressler, chair of the Public Safety Advisory Committee, said it is practical and fair to assess risks to children and to the public based on police decision-making. “The committee agrees that we should continue to protect children in our community as best as we can,” she said. “But we also have to recognize that there are charges which sometimes are not valid. And we don’t think that we should announce each and every case of complaint, accusation or even notify about a person under investigation. In this respect, we should leave this matter to the police department. I don’t feel we have to circumvent what they have been doing.” Any employee whose work in- volves frequent interaction with children is already subject to state background checks, McLaughlin said. Councilman Rodney Roberts said he is concerned about the absence of certain crimes in the Greenbelt News Review’s police blotter. “If the community does not know what crimes occurred how can we say if police are posting all required things?” he asked. Abell requested the council compel the city newspaper to publish in their crime blotter such crimes. Kressler said she could not control what the paper chooses to publish. “I have heard a number of complaints about what [the newspaper chooses] for their blotter and details they take away, including often serious crimes they chose not mention,” Kressler said. “But we cannot tell them what to publish and how. It is evident that they perused the blotter but cannot publish each and every detail.” The city’s new policy will be developed and available for public review during an upcoming September meeting, McLaughlin said.

The result was a soulful blend of R&B and trip-hop. “I like being able to bring something different to the table,” Willis said. Orion Wildflower, the name of the duo, performed two original songs off their newest album featuring Bowen’s vocals and Willis’ beats, much to the delight of the packed back room of the cafe. “You have the voice of an angel,” said audience member Jan Kesler to Bowen after she stepped offstage. The New Deal Café hosts an open mic night every Thursday. Anyone may sign up to perform regardless of experience or age—it is simply a first-come, first-serve basis. Each performer has the opportunity to play up to four songs. “The variety and the quality of the music is all across the spectrum,” said Kevin Kesler, who has performed at the New Deal before. “But some of the performances tonight were really astoundingly good.” The night’s acts largely consisted of men who sang and wielded acoustic guitars, but other instruments were also featured. Greg Evans took the stage with a lap dulcimer, performing a John Pine song before switching to guitar. A woman, Alicia, sang a cappella soprano vocals from the musical theater canon. James Riordan, who hosts open mic night every other Thursday along with his wife, Martha Heil, brought his daughter, Mary May, onstage to sing “Charlie on the M.T.A.” “Poor Charlie!” the blondhaired toddler yelled into the microphone, flailing her arms wildly onstage to the beat of her dad’s guitar strumming. “We’re raising her right,” Heil PHOTO BY KELSEY SUTTON Ryan Willis, left, and Robin Bowen, right, of Orion Wildflower perform at New Deal Cafeʼs Open-Mic Night said when the audience cooed and cheered. Anne Getz, who watched the performances, said the warm welcome from the audience is what makes the open mic performances so appealing to performers. “It’s such a relaxed atmosphere,” she said. “People can perform and not feel scared.” Jim Hintze and Rob Hallworth, who together make up the duo The Vinyl Frontier, were one of the first acts of the night performing 1970s soft rock classics like “Rhiannon” by Fleetwood Mac and “New Kid in Town” by The Eagles. “Everyone is accepting here,” Jan Kesler, from Burtonsville, said. “You can never pick a favorite.They were all great.” ...And more music at the Hyattsville Summer Jam By Yevgeniy Trapeznikov Special to the Sentinel HYATTSVILLE – While the skies were cloudy and chances of a thunderstorm were likely, city residents continued a tradition that has been going on for more than a decade at the summer jam Friday. Hyattsville’s summer jam series takes place five times a year on the second Friday of each month between May and September. The event takes place no matter what— rain or shine. The neighborhood party, sponsored by the Outback Steakhouse, brings together people of all walks of life, said Natalie Dawkins, local operations manager for the restaurant. “We try to reach out to the community and do what we can. It’s something the Outback was founded on,” Dawkins said. “We can be a great operation but in order to remain successful, we have to give back to the community.” The Outback provides food for the event including hamburgers, chicken and hotdogs. The event also features live performances by music bands. Wine and beer is available for the over-21 crowd and there are a variety of activities for children, such as a moon bounce, face painting and balloon twisting. Jan Taylor, a dance teacher at Georgetown University, helped paint children’s faces. “We have a whole assortment and kids usually ask for butterflies and dragons. Now with the movie ‘Frozen’ out snowflakes are popular, too,” said Taylor, who has been doing body painting for about 25 years. “I like to do arms, so kids could see it, but often kids would start with one and they would ask for another one and eventually some end up with their faces completely painted.” Mandy Dalton, a professional clown, also performed at the event. Dalton has been working with Hyattsville for more than 25 years. She regularly performs at city events such as the International Festival in late September and the Hyattsville Day Carnival. “Basically, I am trying to be a one-woman circus,” Dalton said. At the jam series Dalton entertains children with jokes and balloon animals. Cheri Everhart, recreation events coordinator, said the biggest draw for the series is the music. This summer a new band, the Crawdaddies, performed. The band, founded in 1995, plays music infused with Cajun, blues, ska, roots, rock and reggae. The Crawdaddies have released four CDs and its song “The Difference” won the GOLD Starmaker Music Award in February 2014. Sarah Gardner, a city resident, said she likes to swing dance with her husband when another band, the Roustabouts, perform at the jam series. “It’s a nice opportunity for local musicians, and I think it’s really good that we can get to know each other,” said Gardner. Dawkins said she was surprised by the number of seniors attending the event. “That was great to see folks of different age coming out of the house together especially seniors getting together see their friends whom they have not seen for a long time,” Dawkins said. “I felt like everyone knows everyone. No one was a stranger. It was like a big family.” Art Martin, a father of two who first attended the summer jam three years ago, said he enjoys attending the events because it is an opportunity for the community to come together and a chance for his children to make friends. “We usually meet people with kids around the same age. The food is reasonably priced. You can have a glass of beer or wine and if the weather is good, you can stay here all night,” Martin said. 18 JUNE 19, 2014 THE PRINCE GEORGE’S SENTINEL N EIGHBORS Mary McHale (301) 735-3451 MorningsideSkyline Hurry to the polls, early voting ends at 8 p.m. tonight!

Simms Sentinel Sports Maryland heard the talk but the players from the Old Line State walked the walk and came away with a thrilling 31-24 double-overtime victory Saturday against Pennsylvania in the 57th annual Big 33 Football Classic at Hersheypark Stadium in Hershey, Pa. McDonogh defensive back Josh Woods said there were naysayers who had called the Maryland team “soft” so that provided some motivation for the visitors. “We’re kind of known as the lacrosse state which means we’re soft I guess,” said Woods, who registered three interceptions including a pick-six and was named Maryland’s Player of the Game. “That’s what we heard. We heard that a lot up here from the players but I guess as a defense we came out and we knew we had to stick it to them so it’s a great win for Maryland to put us back on top of PA.” Woods, who signed with the University of Maryland, returned an interception 60 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter to help Team Maryland take a 24-0 lead with 6:13 remaining in the period. Pennsylvania scored 24 unanswered points and tied the game at 24 on a 29-yard field goal by Penn State recruit Joey Julius with 1:19 remaining in the fourth period. Woods came through in the clutch once again, registering his third interception of the game on the final play of regulation. Both teams failed to score in the first overtime session but former Westlake quarterback and Maryland recruit Antwaine Carter connected with former Milford Mill wide receiver and Monmouth recruit Reggie White, Jr. for a 25-yard touchdown. Former Northwest linebacker Rasheed Gillis helped the Jaguars win a 4A state championship in December and was also instrumental in Maryland’s historic win over Pennsylvania in the Big 33. Gillis, a Shepherd recruit, inter- cepted Pennsylvania quarterback Mark Pyles to secure Maryland’s first Big 33 win since 1991. “It meant a lot to me,” said Gillis, “because I still felt like I had something to prove and by beating Pennsylvania it proves that Maryland can play football.” PHOTO BY ED SHEAHIN Defensive back Josh Woods goes up for the interception on his way to being named Most Valuable Player at the Big 33 Classic. Raven James commits to Villanova By Brandy L. Simms Sentinel Sports Although she doesn’t graduate for another two years, Upper Marlboro resident Raven James has already made her college decision. James, a rising junior guard at Paul VI, has verbally committed to play college basketball at Villanova. James said she made a pledge to the Wildcats because it was “the right fit” academically and she felt comfortable with the coaching staff. “They’ve been there for a while,” said James. “They were there recruiting me since seventh grade.” The Philadelphia area school also has the academic curriculum that the teenager wants to study. “They have a great internation- al relations program which is what I want to major in,” said James. Villanova head coach Harry Perretta and assistant coach/recruiting coordinator Heather Vulin showed genuine concern for James’ future, she said. “They seemed like they had my best interest at heart,” added James, “and they seemed like they’re not only worried about the now but they’re worried about after basketball is over and what I’m going to do as far as my career.” Ron James, Raven’s father and Team Takeover AAU coach, said his daughter had at least five offers and five more schools were showing very strong interest. “She was considering North Carolina State as well as St. Joseph’s and George Washington,” said Ron James. As a sophomore last season, the 5-foot-6 point guard averaged seven points, five assists and two steals per game in helping lead Paul VI to a 295 record. The Panthers also captured the Washington Catholic Athletic Conference regular season and tournament championships along with the Fairfax school’s eighth consecutive Virginia Independent Schools Athletic Association Division I state championship. With the graduation of Ariana Freeman (Louisville) and Lindsay Oblitey (Virginia Tech), James said she hopes to make a bigger impact next season. “I think my role,” said James, “is going to be trying to be more of a leader next year.” Bullis beats North Point By Tynise Jones Sentinel Sports HYATTSVILLE – After winning its third-straight IAC title last season, the Bullis School boys basketball team is looking to follow up with another title in the BSN Summer League. Bullis picked up a 73-69 win against North Point in Sunday’s game. With the recent success of the Bullis program, Coach Bruce Kelley said the league gives the younger players an opportunity to gain some experience before the season. Kelley said he was pleased with his team’s effort on Sunday. “The guys are mentally prepared to play,” Kelley said. “We’re just like everyone else trying to figure our team out. We passed today’s test.” One of the players who stood out in Sunday’s game was Bullis’ 6foot, 4-inch guard Mickey Bell. Bell knocked down several long jumpers and had success going to the basket. On the court he shows little fear. “I drink a lot of water, listen to music and relax,” Bell said. “Then I go out and play. I try not to stress myself out.” While North Point was unable to pick up the victory, shooting guard Joshua Holmes had success hitting his jump shot. “Before each game I always say a prayer and try to get peace while focusing on what I’m trying to do,” Holmes said. 20 THE PRINCE GEORGE’S SENTINEL JUNE 19, 2014 SPORTS DeMatha takes down Good Counsel 76-60 By Michael Sykes Sentinel Sports HYATTSVILLE – It is the middle of June, but the DeMatha Stags basketball team looks like it is in midseason form. The Stags defeated Washington Catholic Athletic Conference Good Counsel 76-60 thanks to some key defensive plays down the stretch. Even though it was a summer league outing, the Stags didn’t need much motivation to play against Good Counsel, said assistant coach Tommy Paolucci. “Because it was Good Counsel, somebody in our league, we’re always up because we know we’re going to see them again in the winter time,” Paolucci said. “We want to kind of leave a mark if you want to say that. So I think they were excited.” Point guard Terrell Allen said he was excited to play Good Counsel and looked forward to seeing what they had to offer in their conference. “It was very exciting to see who they have. And they get to see who we have. So, it’s going to be good to play them in the regular season coming up.” Both teams matched each oth- er shot for shot in the first half. The Stags started to pull away late in the half behind the scoring of sophomore forward Joe Hampton and Kellon Taylor who led DeMatha with 17 points. Hampton finished two and-one opportunities to finish the half with nine points and tied with Kellon Taylor for the team lead in scoring at the half. The half closed with a Good Counsel run to pull within five at halftime, 36-31. The Stags’ defense came through in the second half. A full court press from DeMatha forced Good Counsel into turning the ball over throughout the half. Paolucci said the coaching staff put an emphasis on defensive pressure. “We told them at the beginning of the game that we were going to pressure the ball. And we knew that it might not reward us in the first eight minutes or in the first half,” Paolucci said. “But sometimes when you pressure the ball like that it breaks the other team down and you kind of reap the rewards late.” The Stags pressure defense ended up working out for them in the second half. DeMatha went on a 27-12 run in the first six minutes of the second half. The defense allowed DeMatha to get out in the open floor and push the ball in transition. Good Counsel seemed gassed as they allowed Allen to pick them apart in the open court. Allen did not shoot the ball much, finishing the game with four points, but Paolucci praised him for getting his teammates involved and running the transition game well. “The ball ended up in Terrell Allen’s hands a lot in transition, and I don’t even remember him scoring a transition bucket,” Paolucci said. “He held on to it long enough to attract somebody and give it up, but he was very unselfish today.” Allen said he was going with the flow of the game and taking what the defense was giving him. “Some games I might be going on my shot, some games I might be distributing the ball well. Today I just got the ball to my teammates. I’ve got great players around me,” Allen said. Allen said the summer league is beneficial because it allows the team to evaluate itself for next season. “The summer league is good because we’ll get to see who will be ready to play this upcoming season,” Allen said. PHOTO BY MICHAEL SYKES The Stags huddle during their 76-60 win during summer league. As for the team’s defensive play, Allen said ball pressure was the difference. “We got a lot of turnovers and got into transition. We got easy layups and that’s how you step up your game.” DeMatha’s faces McKinley Tech in its next game on Sunday. Mystics lose third straight to Mercury 88-66 By Dan Kucin Jr. Sentinel Sports WASHINGTON - Phoenix Mercury center Brittney Griner was an unstoppable presence in the post against the Washington Mystics on June 10 at the Verizon Center. Griner accounted for 20 points and handed the Mystics their third-straight loss of the season 88-66. However, Phoenix guard Dianna Taurasi helped set the table for her teammates with 10 assists and 13 points ito finish with a double-double. In a back-and-forth slugfest, the Mystics managed to tie the game before halftime at 37-37. However, youth and inexperience took over in the second half. Phoenix started the third quarter on a 10-0 run and never looked back. Washington Mystics Head Coach Mike Thibault called a timeout after the run and substituted his starting five to send a message. The shots were simply not falling for the Mystics, but by the end of the third quarter they found themselves only down by seven points. “Well at halftime I felt okay,” said Thibault. “Early on we did a very good job against Griner, but she got going. They are a very hard team to double-team, because they are the best three-point shooting team.” Between Dianna Taurasi's automatic jump shots from long range and Britney Griner's dominating effort on the boards and in the paint, Washington couldn't hold on at home. Phoenix coasted throughout the rest of the fourth quarter for a double-digit victory. Despite losing by such a large margin, the Mystics did see some positives which should outweigh the negatives in the future. What Washington lacks in inexperience, they gain in a young and talented core. There will be growing pains, but as the season progresses, the minutes will increase. At a limited capacity, former Riverdale Baptist star forward Tianna Hawkins went 3-3 from the field with six points, six rebounds, and an assist with just over 13 minutes of play. Rookie Bria Hartley scored eight points, an assist, and had a steal. However, rookie center Stephanie Dolson struggled to keep up with Griner on both ends of the court and finished the game with only two points. “We have some growing up to do as far as having a sense for the game,” said Thibault. “As far as helping this young team, you have to keep playing and every day in practice you need to get better. I just told them in the locker room when you are in this type of situation you have to not only be physically better, but you have to be smarter when the game goes along.” EXTRA Supplement To The Prince Georgeʼs Sentinel Subscriber Edition INSIDE Calendar ................E-5 Classifieds.............E-8 Cartoon ..................E-2 Reasons News ......................E-3 t o g o t o Nashivlle Travel..................E-12 See page E-12 A Newspaper of Record FREE EDITION Vol. 25, No. 31• 50¢ Fun Page ...............E-7 Thursday, June 19, 2014 Down the stretch they come! County Council candidates are making their last pitches as the primary election gets set to begin By Melanie Balakit, Jon Banister and Kelsey Sutton Special to the Sentinel With early voting already underway and the primary election set to take place on Tuesday, candidates for the Prince George’s County Council are making their last pitches to voters. Incumbent democrat Mary Lehman is running unopposed for the District 1 seat, which represents Beltsville and Laurel. She was elected to the county council in 2010 and chaired the council’s transportation, housing and the environment committee in 2012. The competition for the District 2 seat, which represents Brentwood and Hyattsville, pits democrats Doyle Niemann and Deni Taveras against one another. Niemann has served in the House of Delegates since 2002 but decided to run for a seat on the county council so he could have a stronger local impact. “I came to realize that I could set policy, create policy and create programs at the state level but the enforcement and implementation of that falls at the county level,” Niemann said. “You can have much more influence and impact on the county.” Neimann has chaired the House’s housing and real property subcommittee, and said housing is one of the main issues he wants to address. Niemann said he wants to provide more affordable housing for seniors and improve code enforcement. “I have practical experience in all the areas where the county faces challenges: schools, economy, crime,” Niemann said. “I also have specific ideas that are not just words and promises that you can say but are things that can be done.” Niemann’s opponent, Taveras, is a former chief of staff to Sen. Victor Ramirez (D-47), and has worked for the Environmental Protection Agency. “I think that what I bring is a more holistic background,” she said. “The work I’ve done domestically has been at all levels of government.” Taveras said she wants to improve the Prince George’s County education system. “The priority is addressing the quality of the schools and closing the achievement gap,” she said. “If our outcomes don’t improve we cannot expect parents to entrust their kids in public schools. That’s critical to everything else because that’s the driver that will push all the incentives in place.” Three candidates are vying for the District 3 seat, which represents College Park, Berwyn Heights, Riverdale Park, University Park, Landover Hills and New Carrollton. Dannielle Glaros currently serves as chief of staff to Councilman Eric Olson. She has also worked for Smart Growth America, a national non-profit aimed at revitalizing urban neighborhoods. “I bring a lot of energy and passion to the job,” Glaros said. “I’m a problem solver. I don’t like it when the answer is no and I like to figure out how to move things forward.” Glaros said her main focus is economic development because the county has not seen as much job growth as neighboring counties. “Bringing jobs to the county is important not only because people want to be able to use their purchasing power to buy things,” Glaros said. “They want the restaurants and hotels. And at our metro stations there’s a lot of opportunity.” Glaros’ opponent, Terence Collins has been working in Prince George’s county for 30 years in mental health and community development areas. Collins said he is running because he think county officials are putting their own self interests before those of the people they represent. “The government is not accountable to the people,” Collins said. “We have a lack of leadership in Prince George’s County and there are a lot of internal decisions made that are not in the best interests of the citizens of Prince George’s County.” Collins said some of his primary areas of focus are creating private sector jobs, reducing middle class taxes and increasing affordable housing. The other challenger—Jim Wildoner—spent 13 years working Please see “primary,” page 4 Off-duty police officer arrested for road rage incident By Jim Davis Special to the Sentinel CURTIS BAY, Md. – Anne Arundel County police arrested an off-duty Prince George’s County police officer early Tuesday morning after a road rage incident which led to the officer drawing his weapon. Cpl. Joey Torres is currently suspended with pay pending an administrative hearing. “Our special investigation response team immediately launched an administrative investigation upon learning of the arrest,” said Prince George’s County Police Chief Mark Magaw. “Cpl. Torres’ police powers have been suspended.” According to charging documents, the incident began when Prince George’s Torres began following a man, Marlon Robert Marner, Tuesday morning after Marner passed him on I-97. Torres continued to follow Marner onto eastbound I-695 toward Ordinance Road. Marner pulled his Volkswagen Passat into a parking lot in the 700 block of East Ordinance Road, and Torres blocked Marner in the lot with his Chevrolet Equinox. Marner told police Torres pulled a gun from the trunk of Equinox and placed it against his temple and told him to get out of the vehicle and get on the ground. A witness told police Torres approached Marner’s vehicle “in an aggressive manner” before pulling the gun, according to charging statements. Marner was ultimately able to drive away, but Torres followed the vehicle on foot. According to Marner, Torres, a 10-year-veteran, never identified himself as a police officer. According to witnesses, Torres did not display a badge, was not wearing a uniform, and his vehicle was not outfitted with markings or lights. According to Lt. Rich Duvall, spokesperson for the Anne Arundel County Police Department, patrol units arrived on the scene and located 47-year-old Torres, who said Marner had been tailgating him and threw a can at his car while he passed him. Torres told police he had identified himself as “county police” when he was drawing his weapon, according to charging statements. Police retrieved a fully loaded Smith & Wesson M&P .40-caliber pistol from Torres’ waistband at the scene. Torres is charged with first-degree assault, second-degree assault, reckless endangerment and using a firearm in the commission of a crime of violence, according to charging documents. “When one of our officers is accused of criminal wrongdoing, the Prince George’s County Police Department takes those allegations very seriously,” Magaw said. “This department holds our officers to a high set of standards whether on or off duty and our community deserves that.” E-2 JUNE 19, 2014 THE PRINCE GEORGE’S SENTINEL OPINION The Prince Georgeʼs Sentinel, published weekly by Berlyn Inc., is a community newspaper covering Prince Georgeʼs County, Maryland.

E-3 JUNE 19, 2014 THE PRINCE GEORGE’S SENTINEL NEWS OBITUARY Oyster cravings fulfilled at National Harbor Robert “Bob” Norman Griffin, Melanie Balakit Special to the Sentinel NATIONAL HARBOR – Those looking to fulfill an oyster craving will be able to next month when Walrus Oyster and Ale House opens. The Eastern Shore-inspired restaurant will feature a raw oyster bar and an extensive alcohol selection, according to Desmond Reilly, a partner of the Star Restaurant Group, which is developing the restaurant. The concept of the restaurant comes from the celebration of the Chesapeake Bay and the Eastern Shore, Reilly said. “People are in love with oysters,” Reilly said. “This area is heavily celebrated as having some of the best seafood in the country, especially the Chesapeake Bay.” The restaurant will seat about 200 people in total, with 150 seats within the restaurant and a patio with capacity to seat another 50 people, according to Reilly. The restaurant will serve lunch and dinner on weekdays, and brunch on the weekends. Reilly said the average bill comes out to about $38 per person, including food and alcohol. Bob Kinkead, a celebrated chef based in Washington D.C., is developing the menu. Reilly said the menu will include a selection of fresh fish, fresh oysters, and nonseafood items, such as burgers and steaks. “Bob is the godfather of seafood in the Mid-Atlantic area,” Reilly said. “He wrote the menu. The man knows what he’s doing.” Reilly said he and his partners want the restaurant to create a sense of fun and good time. “There’s going to be a gigantic bar which sits 25 people,” Reilly said. The bar will feature a selection of 14 beers on tap and six different wines, all with a local emphasis. There will also be 8-10 bottled or canned beers, according to Kristo- pher Carr, a Star Restaurant Group partner who specializes in beverages. “The general premise of the beers and spirits is to feature local craft beers, primarily focused on the east coast,” Carr said. “We plan to pull a lot of things from Maryland.” Carr said the restaurant’s beverage program will have a culinary aspect, such as homemade syrups and infusions, and fresh juices. There will also be two frozen drink machines. The restaurant’s location and the success of neighboring restaurants was a key factor in deciding to locate at the National Harbor, Reilly said. “It’s at the intersection of American Way and Waterfront Street, so everyone driving sees it,” Reilly said. Reilly also said the restaurant’s waterfront view is another positive aspect of the location. The front of the restaurant offers customers a view of the Potomac River, and the newly-opened Capital Wheel. 87, of Frederick, Maryland Bob Griffin of Frederick, Maryland, died on June 6, 2014, at Homewood at Crumland Farms following an extended hospitalization at University of Maryland Medical Center in Baltimore for complications related to Acute Myeloid Leukemia. He was married for 67 years to Darlene Ness Griffin, with whom he spent many happy years since retirement in 1989 traveling extensively and pursuing shared hobby interests. They had four sons, Darrell, Douglas, Dane, and David. Dane predeceased him in death in 2010 following a battle with cancer. All of Bob’s sons were married with families that produced nine grandchildren and nine great-children with the tenth on the way. Bob’s family was his greatest source of joy and sense of accomplishment. Bob and Darlene have been faithful members and leaders of Spencerville Seventh-day Adventist Church for the past twelve years. Bob’s religious faith was a central defining el- ement of his personal identity and of his daily life. On March 5, 1927 Bob was born to Edward A. and Edna Sanford Griffin in Baltimore. He served in the U.S. Army from 1945-47 and was discharged in Seattle Washington where he met Darlene. In 1950 he graduated with a BA from Walla Walla Adventist University, Walla Walla, Washington. In the 1960’s he completed his Masters degree in Education from University of Maryland and a decade later completed a Doctor of Education degree in Education Administration at DePaul University. Most of Bob’s career was as an elementary school teacher, then Principal, in the Prince George’s County Schools. His professional ambition was always to provide an educational environment in which children enjoy learning and teachers enjoy teaching. Announcement of a memorial service in September will be posted on Stauffer Funeral Home website http://www.staufferfuneralhome.com. In lieu of flowers, the family requests contributions to be made to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in memory of Dr. Robert N Griffin. Riverdale Park Station inching closer to completion Melanie Balakit Special to the Sentinel RIVERDALE –A 37-acre mixed-use development is one step closer to completion as workers clear land to prepare for utility work at the end of the summer, according to Robert Lockhart, the site’s construction consultant. The $250 million Riverdale Park Station, approved by the county in 2013, will host the county’s first Whole Foods grocery store, 995 housing units, a 120-room hotel, 22,000 square feet for offices, and 168,000 square feet for retail. The development is located on Route 1, about midway between University Park and Riverdale Park. It is expected to open in late 2015. “They have to get the ground shaped correctly, remove trees and boulders,” Riverdale Park Mayor Vernon Archer said. The construc- tion crew should transition into fine grading, or further preparing the ground to receive asphalt, after the land is cleared and leveled, Archer said. Construction began in February. “I’m excited that it’s moving forward out of the talking and design phase to the implementing phase,” Archer said. Positive impacts of the project are higher property values, Archer said, as well the economic impact the development will have for the town. “It’s going to put us on the map,” Archer said. University Park Mayor John Tabori said the developer, Calvin Cafritz Enterprises, is working towards securing building permits. “I’m cautiously optimistic that it could be successful and have a positive outcome,” Tabori said. Tabori said he has reservations about the project because of concerns about increased traffic on Route 1 during construction and when the shopping center opens. Route 1 is already congested, he said, because of its proximity to the University of Maryland campus and other developments in the area. Riverdale Park is one of the stops on the proposed Purple Line. Tabori said he hopes a proposed pedestrian and vehicular bridge over the CSX railroad tracks along the eastern side of the property will help alleviate future traffic. “The bridge was a principal reason that University Park accepted the project, finally,” Tabori said. “Without the bridge, we probably wouldn’t have approved it.” “It’s sure taking a long time,” Tabori said, referring to the progress of the project. “I’ve been mayor for eight years and for seven years this has been part of my daily routine.” Place your Display and Classified Ads on the exciting New Sentinel website FISH DAY!

He also has experience in public service and community outreach while serving on the New Carrollton Council since 2003. “With my contracts & financial experience I can provide more fiscally responsible recommendation than my opponents which have public policy backgrounds,” Wildoner said. Vince Canales and Todd Turner are competing to represent District 4, which represents Glenn Dale and Bowie. Canales said he wants to focus on supporting small, local businesses, improving public safety and improving education. The county, Canales said, should foster small businesses and engage them in large county projects. “A lot of (businesses) are having difficulty breaking into county projects, like hospitals or casinos,” Canales said. If elected, Canales said he wants to make sure schools get the money and resources they need, and he has proposed adding another magnet school. “We don’t have enough magnet school programs,” Canales said. “Kids already have to compete in these programs.” Canales said he wants to add more vocational or apprenticeship programs. He said he would take a holistic approach at improving public safety by addressing understaffing at local fire departments and correctional facilities. “It comes down to experience,” said Turner, who holds positions both on the Bowie City Council and the County Council staff. Turner said in these positions, he has served his constituents effectively and has developed deep knowledge of the city and the county. Andrea Harrison, the incumbent in District 5, is running unopposed. District 5 includes Cheverly, Landover Hills, and Fairmount Heights. Pierre Augustin, Derrick Davis and Gerron Levi are all running for the District 6 seat, which represents District Heights and Andrews Air Force Base. Augustin said he wants to attract businesses to the area by providing tax breaks. He said he wants to attract $100 billion to create 1 million jobs. Augustin has suggested a law to offer tax-free zones for 10 years to startup companies which choose to relocate or expand and hire local residents within Prince George’s County. Augustin’s campaign has also focused on education. He said he would like to work with existing organizations to foster parental involvement and identify high-risk elementary and middle school students. Davis, the incumbent, said he wants to focus on economic development, improving public safety and improving the school system. David said he wants to pursue transit-oriented development plans to compete with Washington D.C. “We need to focus on urban, mixeduse areas, places that are walkable,” Davis said. The county’s 15 metro stations are examples of areas Davis said he would like to see mixed use development. Although crime in the county has gone down, Davis said there is still room for improvement. Davis said he would improve public safety by investing money for more public safety officers. Mostly, Davis said he wants to continue the work he has already started. “There’s a learning curve coming into this position. Nothing is developed overnight,” Davis said. “Once you are elected, this is a 24hour, seven days a week type of job.” The other candidate, Levi, said her top priorities are recovering home values in the county and improving the education system. Unlike other regions, Levi said, the Federal Housing Administration is a large source of mortgage financing for homebuyers in the county. This is problematic, she said, because there are communities which do not quali- fy for FHA financing. “There should be pilot programs with banks, with people who can stand in the role that FHA plays,” Levi said. As for improving education, Levi said the school system needs to address high suspension rates, make sure students are not absent for class and improve test scores. “Suspensions are too high,” Levi said. “And most of them are cases where a student disrespects a teacher or official. If we have programs to improve behavior in schools, we can cut down on the suspensions.” In District 7, the candidates are Bruce Branch, Capitol Heights Mayor Kito James and incumbent Karen Toles. Branch said he wants voters to remember the importance of small businesses and job creation—his main area of focus. “I am independent-minded, and I’ll fight for jobs, education and disenfranchised populations,” he said. “I believe that in Prince George’s County everyone should have an opportunity to succeed.” Branch said he would expand opportunities for small businesses and nonprofits by giving them more access to large projects like the MGM National Harbor, he said. Kito James has been on the Capitol Heights Town Council for the last eight years. On the county council, James said he wants to encourage partnership and collaboration with state and county leaders to get his initiatives completed, which include programs to improve care for seniors and youth development services. James said he also hopes to improve public safety through greater community policing. Toles’s campaign platform includes expanding and diversifying the county’s economy to help create jobs and promoting apprenticeship training programs in public schools. Obie Patterson, an incumbent, is running unopposed for District 8. Mel Franklin, the current council chairman, is running unopposed for the District 9 seat. ADVERTISE IN The Sentinel!

If you haven’t visited Music City recently, here are four reasons you should slip on your cowboy boots and head to Tennessee’s capital city. Dine in Nashville’s vibrant culinary scene The emerging culinary scene has landed Music City on the gastronomic map — and there is so much more than hot chicken and Southern cuisine. For traditional “meat and three” head to Puckett’s Grocery or Arnold’s Country Kitchen. At Puckett’s Grocery and Restaurant, diners listen to live music and sip bourbon cocktails while feasting on Southern favorites like pulled pork, moonshine-glazed salmon and sweet potatoes. Farm-to-table concept eateries are popping up, including Josephine, food-critic-approved Rolf & Daughters in the historic Germantown neighborhood, and the Farm House in downtown Nashville’s SoBro district. The Farm House chef Trey Cioccia creates dishes with a modern take on traditional Southern food using locally sourced ingredients — sometimes from the chef’s own garden. With at least one food festival per month, there is enough eating to do in Nashville to keep foodie travelers well-fed any time of year. Shop ’til you drop at posh boutiques The Hillsboro Village, Green Hills and 12South neighborhoods are home to hip boutiques and unique shops, making Nashville a fabulous girls’ weekend destination. Brunch at French Bistro Boulevard, Nashville or try one of 21 pancake flavors at the Pancake Pantry, a Nashville breakfast tradition for decades, before shopping the Hillsboro Village boutiques for trendy jewelry and accessories, fashionable clothing, one-of-a-kind gifts and shabby-chic home décor. Then cool down with an ice cream or refreshing iced tea at Hot & Cold, or grab a flavored latte at Fido — one of Taylor Swift’s favorite hangouts. Listen to live music anywhere and everywhere in Music City By the time you retrieve your luggage from Nashville International Airport’s baggage claim, you’ll likely already have heard the twang of a guitar. In Nashville, you’ll hear live music just about everywhere — the airport, street corners, shops, restaurants, bars and, of course, the Lower Broadway honky tonks. A center of the music industry, many well-known musicians call Nashville home, including stars of ABC’s TV show “Nashville,” the Black Keys and Kings of Leon, and they have been known to perform around town. At the honky tonks — Legend’s Corner, The Stage and Robert’s Western World to name a few — upand-coming artists perform covers of Darius Rucker, Journey, Gretchen Wilson and Neil Diamond tunes. It’s heavy on the boot-stompin’ country songs — the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band’s “Fishin’ in the Dark” and Blake Shelton’s “Boys ’Round Here” are honky tonk staples — but the bands usually add some surprising covers. Explore country music’s rich history History buffs and music aficionados will find much to see and do in Music City—see a show at Opryland, go backstage at the beautiful Ryman Auditorium, view the largest collection of memorabilia from the “Man in Black” at the Johnny Cash Museum, visit the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, and tour RCA Studio B, where Elvis recorded more than 250 of his songs. After sightseeing or catching a show at the Mother Church of Country Music, walk across the alley from the Ryman Auditorium to Tootsie’s World Famous Orchid Lounge.

Along the Wall of Fame, you’ll find photos of other famous Tootsie’s customers, and you can enjoy a longneck while listening to a band that could be a future Grand Ole Opry inductee.
