August 20, 1967: Sargent Shriver said Unity is ‘built by all Americans’


August 20, 1967: Sargent Shriver said Unity is ‘built by all Americans’

In a recent tweet – on June 22, 2015, Maria Shriver @mariashriver, noted that her father, (Westminster, Carroll County, Md. native son) Sargent Shriver, said “My father said Unity is ‘built by all Americans.’ Sadly, words still relevant @RSargentShriver: http://eepurl.com/bq43Ir

On August 20, 1967, Mr. Shriver said: “"We have a statue of liberty on the east coast given to us by a foreign community. But we need a statue of unity built by all Americans, for all Americans -- in every American community. Today, our nation is not united. This country is in trouble because too many Americans prefer not to know each other. Not to care about each other. […] Our country cannot go on like this."


According to the website, “Sargent Shriver did not shy away from speaking about racism throughout his career. This address at the black Shriner convention in August of 1967, given in the middle of a long, tumultuous summer of rioting throughout the country, demonstrates his frankness and his concern on the topic of racial inequality…”

He said this in an “Address to the Negro Shriners Convention, CLEVELAND, OH. 

He also said: “It is keeping America divided into ghettos--not the city slums, but ghettos of the mind where we seal off parts of democracy that don't suit us, where we box off our obligations to justice and shut out our commitments to fairness. These ghettos of the mind are more damaging to America than the ghettos of the city…”

Indeed, Sargent Shriver did not shy away from speaking about racism throughout his career. Read the entire speech here: http://sargentshriver.org/speech-article/address-to-the-negro-shriners-convention

"Camp COPS receives generous donation from Koons Westminster Toyota Scion" Westminster, Carroll County, Maryland; June 18, 2015



Sheriff Jim DeWees, along with everyone involved in the Camp C.O.P.S. program, would like to thank Koons Westminster Toyota Scion for their generous support of this summer program.

On Tuesday, June 16th, Nigel Hayes, General Manager, along with Angela Boerner, Controller, presented a check for $5000 to Sheriff Jim DeWees and Sgt Keith Benfer of the Westminster Police Department to help fund the program.

Carroll County Camp C.O.P.S. (COURAGE TO BE OUTSTANDING WITH PRIDE AND SELF CONFIDENCE) is a joint effort between the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office, Westminster Police Department, Maryland State Police, Taneytown Police, and the Carroll County State’s Attorney’s Office, and is designed to bring a better understanding of Law Enforcement to the youth of Carroll County, while working in the atmosphere of a Police Academy.

Located at the Carroll County Farm Museum in Westminster, Camp C.O.P.S. is open to middle school students (those students going into 6th, 7th, or 8th grade).

This year, the Camp will run from July 20th through July 24th.

The donation will be used to purchase many of the items needed to run the popular summer program. This will include equipment and activities for the camp, as well as such items as shirts, hats, water bottles, and food.

Oops I let the cow in...

5yr old lets pet cow on house… Without mom knowing

"Kids! If it's not one thing it's an udder.

Hey, I know you're skeptical. But really, you need to just hear this little five-year-old girl out, because she's got a perfectly reasonable explanation for why she let—or possibly brought—her pet calf into the house. It may or may not have something to do with cow poop. It's hard to tell. But it should definitely fully exonerate her in the eyes of her rather annoyed, anti-cow-in-the-house mother..."

Henryton State Hospital | Tumblr




"Henryton State Hospital, 2007.

The Henryton State Hospital complex, sprawling across the forested edge of Patapsco State Park in rural Maryland, was built in stages from 1922 to 1946, commissioned as a segregated tuberculosis sanatorium for the state’s African-American population. 


Maryland’s Black community in the 1920s and 1930s suffered from tuberculosis at four times the rate of whites, who typically had less crowded living conditions and better nutrition, and therefore less exposure and better immune health at home for fending off an infection for which there were not yet any antibiotics to treat. 

By the time the last buildings were finally completed for the originally crowded sanatorium, the epidemic had already calmed down, and the underpopulated complex was transformed into a long-term inpatient mental health facility. It was finally closed entirely in 1985. 

 Over the years Henryton has been ravaged by vandalism and suspicious fires more than by time and nature. The main building was bulldozed a few weeks ago, following several other arson-ravaged state-owned abandonments demolished in recent years over safety concerns. It is worth noting, given Henryton’s original purpose in providing patients fresh air to help them recover from respiratory illness, that the demolition process necessarily involves substantial asbestos abatement."

Marriage and Relationship Education Center


Marriage and Relationship Education Center

255 CLIFTON BLVD, SUITE 213

WESTMINSTER, MD, 21157UNITED STATES

410-386-9003



The Marriage & Relationship Education Center is a 50l (c)(3) faith-based organization established in 2004 and is located in the Carroll Non Profit Center in Westminster. We are dedicated to improving the lives of children in our community by strengthening families through marriage and relationship education, partnerships and public awareness efforts.

As an organization, MREC works with a proactive, educational approach through classes that teach skills necessary for couples to deal with conflict while better understanding their mate. 

In addition, MREC encourages couples and individuals through awareness efforts to have positive connections/ experiences and make healthy life decisions.  

To maximize our impact, MREC staff is certified in many curriculums to train other key individuals/churches as teachers.  This knowledge sharing creates a ripple effect of healthy relationship skills and strengthens families in our community.

Our Founders - Retired Carroll County Public School educators, Bill and Anne McKenna, have been married 53 years. They have four children and 12 grandchildren. Bill spent over 30 years teaching, coaching, and as an athletic director. The McKennas are certified in multiple marriage education programs.  They started their work in marriage education by developing a marriage ministry in their local church. As the word spread to other churches, they decided, with the encouragement of the local ministerium, to form an independent organization that utilized a proactive approach to strengthening families.

The Marriage & Relationship Education Center (formally known as Marriage Resource Center) was founded in November of 2004 and gained 501(c)3 status in December, 2006.
