Dec. 23, 2014 1329 Western Chapel Rd Westminster Fire Department PIO report.

DISPATCH TIME: 2:49 a.m. - 02:49 CT: HOUSE FIRE 1329 WESTERN CHAPEL RD BOX: 0325 DUE: E31 E101 E81 E61 TO3 L5 ET82 TT6 BR105 X38 CS8

LOCATION: 1329 Western Chapel Road, Westminster, MD 21157 - BOX: 0325

INCIDENT Classification: FIRE SUPPRESSION

INCIDENT DESCRIPTION: At 2:49 a.m. Carroll County firefighters and EMS personnel were dispatched to a report of a house fire in the 1300 unit block of Western Chapel Road, Box 0325 in Westminster.

Homeowner called the Emergency Operations Center at least twice. Initially to report of a fire on the porch. In the second call, about five-minutes later, the caller advised that the fire had “spread through porch through house.”

INITIAL ON-SCENE UNIT: Chief 3-1 arrived on the scene at 3:01.

Initial Findings: Upon arrival a working house fire was observed. R.I.T. response and a tanker task force was requested at 3:01. The building had already sustained damage and was extensively involved.

ACTIONS TAKEN: An initial exterior attack followed closely with an interior attack. A rural water supply was established.

The home was remotely located far back an uphill lane that extended a long distance from Western Chapel Road. The weather was overcast – with no moon showing, dark, raining and foggy with temperatures that hovered just above freezing.

The fire was declared under control at 5:22 a.m. Units cleared the scene at 6:08 a.m.

HAZ-MAT? None known.

TYPE OF Material INVOLVED: A two-story log home.

No known report of any injuries.

SCENE Victims: An extended family was present at the fire ground. Mary Ellen Crown is believed to have been the only person at home at the time – and made the call to the E.O.C. Ms. Crown mentioned that the home “was in a trust in the name of Daniel Crown.” In addition to a number of family members, Lisa Grossweiller was also present with Ms. Crown.

Ms. Crown said that there were active-working smoke alarms in the home. It was unclear if she was alerted to the presence of fire by the smoke alarm or if the smoke alarms later sounded once the fire had spread from the porch to the inside of the house.

EMERGENCY PERSONNEL: According to the E.O.C., there were approximately 60 – 70 firefighters and EMS personnel at the scene. In addition, Westminster Fire Department canteen, PIO and Chaplain were also on the scene as well as one or more Carroll County deputy Sheriffs and several personnel from the Office of the Maryland State Fire Marshall.

BYSTANDERS: A large extended family was present throughout the fire suppression.

NUMBER OF ON-SCENE: There were approximately 60 – 70 Carroll County firefighters and EMS personnel at the scene from nine Carroll County volunteers’ fire departments. One unit and a number of firefighters from Lisbon, Howard County provided back-up fill-in for Westminster.

UNITS, EMERGENCY PERSONNEL, Mutual AIDE COMPANY(S,) and SPECIAL SUPPORT Services(s): Carroll County personnel from New Windsor, Union Bridge, Pleasant Valley, Westminster, Taneytown, Hampstead, Gamber, Winfield, and Lineboro responded.

Units cleared the scene at 6:08 a.m.

The homeowner was assisted by family and the American Red Cross.

The fire remains under investigation by the Maryland State Fire Marshal’s office.

Report filed by Westminster Volunteer Fire Department public information officer Chaplain Kevin E. Dayhoff. PIO

Close but no cigars after vacation trip to Cuba By Katie V. Jones

Close but no cigars after vacation trip to Cuba

By Katie V. Jones, katievjones@aim.com June 23, 2014

http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/carroll/westminster/ph-ce-chamber-cuba-0622-20140623-story.html

It was an adventure of a lifetime.

On June 1, about 40 members of the Carroll County Chamber of Commerce returned from an eight-night, nine-day trip to Cuba. The cultural exchange trip offered a look into a country many Americans do not get a chance to see – but should, according to those who went.

[…]

They flew in from Miami and landed in Camaguey, Cuba's third-largest city. Known for its clay pots, the city dates back to the 1500s. Also on the itinerary were trips to the colonial city of Trinidad with a stop at a village of approximately 70 sugar mills, and visits to Cienfuegos, the Bay of Pigs and Havana.

Only recently have Americans been allowed to visit Cuba, and those visits are only through people to people and authorized venues. An ongoing embargo with the U.S. prevents trade with Cuba. No one on the trip was allowed to bring home anything, according to Yingling, especially Cuban cigars, coffee or rum.

Letters to Santa: Why charity groups fought to have kid’s letters end up in the dead letter office.

Letters to Santa: Why charity groups fought to have kid’s letters end up in the dead letter office....

Letters to Santa: Why charity groups fought to have kid’s letters end up in the dead letter office.: "A century ago, charities fought to have children’s wish lists sent to the dead letter office. They lost. By Alex Palmer"

http://www.slate.com/articles/life/holidays/2014/12/letters_to_santa_why_charity_groups_fought_to_have_kid_s_letters_end_up.html

What could be more innocent than a letter to Santa? A child jotting down her heart’s desires in pencil or crayon and dropping it in the mailbox, naively hoping the wish will be granted by Christmas morning: It’s a tradition that goes back at least to the mid-1800s, and it is a reminder of the holiday’s more idyllic past.

These days, such letters are viewed as an opportunity to help the less fortunate. In many cities across the U.S., the Postal Service mak
es available Santa letters to groups or individuals who want to fulfill the wishes enclosed within. It’s a small gesture, multiplied hundreds of thousands of times a year, that brings joy to both the giver and the recipient. What harm could come from that?

Oh, just teaching kids to beg, cheat, and lie—at least, that was the conventional wisdom of charity groups in the early 1900s. As such, the Post Office Department, now known as the U.S. Postal Service, found itself in the middle of a wild confrontation between a press and public that never failed to find delight in a note opening with “Dear Santy,” and groups that claimed Santa letters were the product of con artists in training.

“The Post Office Department does not believe in Santa Claus,” lamented the New York Times in a 1906 article about the government policy that undeliverable mail—including letters addressed to a certain chubby, sleigh-riding fellow—be sent to the dead letter office and destroyed. ...

Re-elect Kevin Dayhoff to the Westminster City Council May 9th, 2023

Hi, I am Kevin Dayhoff, and I would like to be re-elected - along with Councilmembers Ann Gilbert and Greg Pecoraro - to remain in the three Westminster Common Council seats that are available in the upcoming May 9th city election. We offer experience, energy, accessibility, vision, fiscally prudent, and socially responsible leadership. It would be an honor to have the opportunity to take another turn as a Westminster elected official. This has been paid for by Dayhoff for Westminster, Caroline Babylon - Treasurer.
