Youth Roller Hockey Seeks More Participation

By Chris Stevens Staff Writer LEONARDTOWN The clang and clatter of rollerblades, pads, helmets and hockey sticks and the excited chatter of children of various ages filled the air of Leonard Hall Sunday afternoon. Renae Tieman would like to hear those noises get louder eventually. We really would like to see more kids participate because were struggling to get players, Tieman said of the youth roller hockey league that holds games every Sunday at Leonard Hall. The youth league is divided up into two age groups, Under 10 and Under 1, with both leagues having four teams apiece. When there is enough interest, there are instructional leagues for kids under the age of six who are interested in learning the fundamentals of roller hockey. Tieman, a certified parent-coach liaison, said most parents and kids find hockey to be an addicting sport. I dont know of any kids who have tried hockey and not continued playing. Her son 8 year-old son Joshua, a goaltender for the Kiwi says he likes playing goaltender and roller hockey because it keeps him busy. Boz Sowa, head coach of the Sabers, and a coach in the league for three years, said it is great to coach the kids because you get to know the kids. Watching them all develop and improve over time is really rewarding.

Considering the Hawks started the 20062007 season 1-5 and were able to pick up the tempo enough to win 16 games, Harney feels much better this year now that his team is off to a much better start. Getting the chemistry early is going to be critical going into conference play, but Im very happy with where we are right now, he said. Now in his third year on the job, Harney is committed to taking St. Marys College basketball further than its ever been, and with the talent to back it up, hes putting all opponents and challengers in the Capital Athletic Conference on notice. The days of us showing up and passing the ball around ten times are over, he warned. You better show up to play us, or youre going to get blown right out of the gym.

Great Mills will have 12 seniors and one junior on its varsity team this season, and very few kids saw serious playing time the previous season.

The 91.8 points per game leads the conference by far. The closest team, Hood College, averages 82.2 points per game, and to date, Hood is the only team to defeat the Seahawks, winning 108-96 on November 24th during the Pride of Maryland tourney. The chemistry and transition has been good, Harney says. We have a unique mix of veterans and youth, and its working because everybody wants to win. So far, its been going good. That mix has allowed St. Marys to dictate the pace of the game and make teams adjust to what

The Former Newtowne Lieutenant Players Governor Announces Kathleen Upcoming Kennedy Auditions
The Newtowne Players announces upcoming auditions for the March 2008 production of A.R. Gurneys The Dining Room. This play provides an excellent opportunity for character acting as each actor plays between 5-10 characters ranging in age from 5 to 85. There are roles for four (4) men and four (4) women. The Dining Room is a humorous and compassionate play set in a central room of family life. Scripted as a series of overlapping vignettes, the play visits a host of characters as they go about their daily business.

WATERSHED HEALTH The Potomac River Association invites the public to its annual meeting featuring a special presentation from Andrew Becker of the Maryland Department of Natural Resources. Mr. Becker is in the Monitoring and Non-Tidal Monitoring division and he travels the state sampling and assessing the health and diversity of non-tidal habitats. The Potomac River basin contains some of the most ecologically diverse and important watersheds in the state of Maryland. Several Federally and State listed rare and endangered aquatic species call these watersheds home. A recent ranking of biodiversity within the watersheds of Maryland identified the Zekiah Swamp as the number one watershed for biological diversity. These unique aquatic resources are threatened by the rate of development as more people move into the Potomac basin. Impervious surfaces affect the physical and chemical make up of our streams, causing changes that can result in the loss of these rare and unique resources. These resources, the effect of impervious surfaces, and the recent development of management tools that will help protect our streams will be discussed.

Public Information Meeting to Discuss FDR Boulevard Phase I

St. Marys County Government is holding a public information meeting on Monday, December 3, 2007 at the Loffler Senior Center at Chancellors Run Regional Park from 6 p.m. -8 p.m. to discuss the FDR Boulevard Phase I project. Citizens will receive information on the status of the project and will be asked for their input and suggestions about the preliminary design. This phase will begin at the intersection of FDR Blvd and First Colony Blvd and continue in a southeasterly direction to MD Rte. 237/Chancellors Run Road. The road will be a two-lane roadway with a raised median. The roadway is being designed to limit traffic speeds through the residential areas of Laurel Glen, Mazel and Hickory Hills communities with the use of traffic calming devices such as narrow travel lanes, roundabouts and pedestrian refuge areas/bump outs. The project will also include bike lanes/shoulders, crosswalks, sidewalks, and street lighting. The county is currently in the design and property acquisition phase of the project with construction scheduled for FY09 and FY10.

Knights of Columbus
Continued from page B- The Mass was said in memory of the deceased members of the council, and the Color Corps rendered a solemn salute as the names were read by Grand Knight Jerry Hicks. The anniversary celebration was held in the Monsignor Martin P. Harris Parish Center at St. John Francis Regis Catholic Church in Hollywood. Several widows of Knights were present, and Hicks thanked them for their continued support and involvement. The program for the evening included recognition of Mearland Rusaw as November Knight of the Month, Mike and Barbara Thompson as Family of the Month, Deacon Lou Koeniger for attainment of Honorary Life Member status, and special recognition of Ron and Dee Dee Norris for over eight years of selfless contribution to the work of the Order. The honored guest and principal speaker for the event was Past State Deputy of Maryland, John J. Glynn, who was accompanied by his wife, Pat. In his remarks, Glynn conveyed to the council the thanks of State Deputy Edgar D. Haynes and presented them with a cross made from the wood of the platform on which Pope John Paul II stood as he said Mass at Aqueduct Racetrack in 1995. The Knights of Columbus is the worlds largest Catholic lay organization. It provides members and their families with volunteer opportunities in service to the Catholic Church, their communities, families, and young people. With more than 1.7 million members in over 13,000 councils around the world, the Knights of Columbus annually donates over $143 million and 68 million hours of service to charitable causes.

Health Department Transportation Program Named Outstanding Rural Health Program

The Rural Maryland Council, an independent state agency recognizing the unique concerns of rural Maryland, presented St. Marys County Health Departments Medical Transportation Program the Outstanding Rural Health Program Award at its 2007 Maryland Rural Summit in Solomons Island. Health Department staff gathered for a reception November 19 to honor program drivers and office staff, all key players in the programs success. The Rural Impact Awards have been given every year for the last ten years to recognize innovative and committed leadership in Marylands rural communities whose residents face a unique combination of factors, which create disparities in health care. St. Marys Medical Transportation Program was recognized for helping to solve the disparity experienced by those who do not have adequate transportation options to get to their medical appointments. Last year, health department drivers transported 1,241 patients to and from their appointments, logging 206,534 total miles.
Holidays Away From Home or Office Made Easier

The traditions of the holidays are many. Theres the magic of opening gifts on Christmas morning, the lighting of the Chanukah menorah, and the wishing that you had worn elastic-waisted pants to Thanksgiving because youre overstuffed with turkey. And because travel is so intimately woven with the holidays, another tradition is spending hours on the highway inching along in miles of traffic or fidgeting on long lines at the airport. Holiday travel can quickly turn a holiday filled with hoho-hos into one where youre muttering some decidedly un-merry words. However, there are ways to make holiday travel a little more stressfree, particularly if you have to catch up on work along the way. Pack light: Theres no point stuffing the car to the gills with luggage of all shapes and sizes. Youre likely to have more packages on the return trip as you amass gifts from relatives and friends. Bring only the necessities so youre not fighting with the trunk lid or the door to the planes overhead compartment. Stay connected to work: Many people take vacations or extended leave from work during the holiday season. Others use this time to catch up on projects, or simply want to stay in the loop while theyre away from the office. Instead of stressing out about deadlines or getting behind on e-mail, theres an easy way to check up on work responsibilities whether youre at home sipping eggnog or enjoying some sand and surf on a holiday trip. GoToMyPC gives you compete and secure access to everything on your office PC. Why hassle with copying work files to a CD or sync-ing up your laptop? From any Internet connected computer anywhere in the world, youll have full access to all of your own files, programs, network resources and e-mail in a matter of seconds. You can even drag and drop files between your remote location and your office or home PC, print documents directly to the printer where youre working and hear audio files including e-mail alerts. Work when and where you want during the holidays with unlimited free use of GoToMyPC for 60 days. Visit www.gotomypc. com/free, and enjoy holiday peace of mind. Avoid peak travel days: While air and roadway traffic are elevated during holiday months, travel congestion is particularly hair-raising on the day before and the day after the actual holiday. Travel agents, newscasters and others remind us of this fact each year. So plan accordingly to choose non-peak days and times to do the bulk of your travel. This could mean leaving on a weekday or driving in the evening hours or early morning. Try to book flights two or three days before the holiday and at least two days after for your return trip home. If you think a commute to your office will be stressful around the holidays, consider working comfortably from home by connecting to your work computer with GoToMyPC. While you cant avoid all of the snags involved with unpredictable holiday travel, you can feel in control with the knowledge that you can access important documents on your computer any time, anywhere.
Take some stress out of holiday travel, whether youre flying or driving this season.

The Skinny On Potbellied Pigs
Recently there appears to be a renewed interest in potbellied pigs in southern Maryland. However, people are obtaining them without researching what it takes to care for a pig, and just how big (and not so skinny) they can get. As a result, the Tri-County Animal Shelter would like to provide some information to help potential owners make an educated decision. The first thing to do is check with your local zoning office to make sure potbellied pigs are allowed where you live. Many people get a potbellied pig just to find out they have to get rid of them due to zoning laws. Next, conduct as much research as possible to find out what it takes to properly care for a pig. There is a wealth of information available on the internet. Facts for this article were obtained from the North American Potbellied Pig Association (www.petpigs.com), Pigs as Pets Association (www.pigsaspets.org), Pigs4Ever.com (www.pigs4ever.com, and Pigs, a Sanctuary (www.pigs.org). A common misconception spread by some sellers of pigs is that your pig will stay small if you dont feed them a lot. Underfeeding any animal can cause serious health problems and deformities, but will not keep them from obtaining their full height and length. The skeletal size of a potbellied pig is directly related to their genetic makeup and not to the amount of food given. Also, pigs have specific nutritional needs that require a special diet and their weight must be monitored. Potbellied pigs are considered miniature pigs, but only because they are small compared to a farm hog, which can exceed 1,000 pounds. Potbellied pigs can still weigh between 100 to 250 pounds, and it can take four or five years for them to reach their full size. There are many things to consider before adopting a pig. You need to find a veterinarian in your area who can treat your pig. Potbellied pigs need vaccinations, and their hooves and tusks need regular trimming. They must be spayed or neutered to prevent aggression and other bad behaviors. You must find someone to care for your pig if you go on vacation, and you must be willing to commit 12-15 years, the average life span, to your pig. Pigs are extremely smart and inquisitive, so you must pig-proof their environment, keep them active and stimulated, and provide proper training. Pigs are herd animals, so they should have at least one other pig as a companion. They also need adequate facilities to protect them from extremes in heat and cold. As with any animal, this is not a relationship to enter into lightly. Potbellied pigs can be a joy, provided you know what to expect. Do the research, make an educated decision, and ensure that everyone in the family is willing to take on this responsibility. If you decide to obtain a potbellied pig, contact the TriCounty Animal Shelter at 1-800-903-1992 to see if there are any available for adoption, and to discuss the adoption criteria.

Kicky Creatures
By Theresa Morr
Awesome ears. Small heads and long snouts. Short forearms and clawed paws. Humongous hind legs and 18-inch long feet. Thick, muscular tails. Yikes! Is this critter from another planet? No, matey! Its the kicky kangaroo, native to Australia and New Guinea. These dudes are macropods, which means big foot and there are about 50 different species of them from the two-pound rock wallaby to the really big guys youve probably seen on TV or in the zoo. Super roos. Adult red kangaroos and gray kangaroos tower over six feet high when standing, weigh up to 300 pounds; and can leap over obstacles 10 feet high and hop along at 35 or more miles per hour. At top speeds, big red can cover a whopping 16 feet or more in a single bound. Whew! And guess what? These leapers and hoppers dont get pooped out either theyre energy efficient. They have spring-like tendons in those huge hind legs. Pretty cool, huh? So, when these guys need to move out fast, they just rise up and start hopping! And once they get going, roos need little extra energy to h op faster and faster --- just like that Energizer Bunny. The heavy tail acts like a rudder, keeping the kangaroo balanced as it hops along, but it also supports the animal when sitting. Teeny tiny roos. Kangaroos are marsupials, a kind of special mammal that gives birth to undeveloped young. When first born, babies are about the size of a small lima bean and weigh less than an ounce! The tiny animal immediately crawls into mama roos cozy pouch for its first meal, and there it stays for up to ten months until its fully developed. Young roos, called joeys, hate to leave mamas pouch even when mature, but sometimes, mama has to kick them out of their nice warm bed. When frightened, the joey hops right back in! Male kangaroos dont have pouches and are called boomers, bucks, or jacks; females are called flyers, does, or jills. But have you ever wondered how the kangaroo got its funny sounding name? Kanga who? When the first European explorers discovered the strange looking animals in Australia, they asked the natives (the Aborigines) what the creatures were called. The natives were said to reply, Kangaroo, which really translated into I dont understand your question. But the explorers thought that was the animals name! Crafty creatures. Red and gray roos are social animals and travel in groups called mobs. When threatened, they stand tall and box attackers with forepaws or kick with those powerful hind legs. Grasslands, savannas, and open woodlands are the roos favorite hangouts, where they chow down on plants, leaves, and grasses. Like camels and giraffes, kangaroos can go for many months without water. But when they get thirsty, those clawed paws start digging water wells deep into the ground until water bubbles up. Problem solved! Kangaroos live about 12 to 18 years in the wild, and around 30 years in captivity. For a kangaroo printout to color, go to www.enchantedlearning.com and type in kangaroo printout in the Search Now! window, then select 1. Kangaroo Printout. Happy coloring, matey!
