Three Oaks
Wants More
Commissioner
Support
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
The management of Three Oaks Center, the countys primary homeless shelter, plans to purchase a small mobile
facility to better serve the needs of its
clients, according to a recent letter to
the Commissioners of St. Marys County, and it wants county elected leaders to
provide more funding for its operations.
Three Oaks would like the county
to provide the sewer, water and electrical hook-up for the modular facility
to enable delivery of services from the
site, wrote the centers director Lanny
Lancaster.
The request also includes a contract,
with a total value of $144,050 between
Three Oaks and the county government
for increased funding to operate those
three utilities from the site, according to
the letter, which also encompasses compensation for more employees to run the
additional facility.
The program is aimed specifically at
homeless veterans and those without
shelter during the winter months and is
in addition to the $125,000 the agency
Commissioners
Tepid on Medical
Marijuana Push
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
A local limited liability company
is seeking a license to open a medical
marijuana dispensary along with a facility to cultivate the plant here, but the
Commissioners of St. Marys County
said Tuesday that they have serious reservations about the idea.
Commissioners spoke about the proposal from Southern Maryland Relief LLC at their regularly scheduled
meeting.
My first reaction was no, said
Commissioner Mike Hewitt, responding
to an e-mail from Peggy Danielson, a
partner in the group making the request.
Hewitt said there could be tax and
economic benefits to having such a facility in the county since the state legalized the production of medical grade
marijauna, but he wasnt sure those benefits could outweigh the potential social
costs.

Library To Digitize
Newspapers, Open to
Including County Times
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
The director of the St. Marys County
Library System says that they are willing to digitize full issues of the St.
Marys County Times for on-line viewing at public libraries along with issues
of the long-lived Enterprise Newspaper
and the long defunct St. Marys Beacon.
Kathleen Reif, who is soon to retire
from running the library system, said
that there had been initial discussions to
include The County Times in the project but that technical staff did not proceed with the idea because The County
Times is already fully digitized.
In that way you were already ahead,
Reif said.
Earlier this week, county government
announced the project was just for The
Enterprise and the St. Marys Beacon,
which ran from 1923 to 1984.
Enterprise issues, that were originally
part of a microfiche collection that the
library system already owned, will be

As the county government looks for options to diversify the local economy so as
to reduce dependency on federal defense
dollars some are cautioning that the county
should continue to find ways to protect Navy
and Marine Corp programs that make up
nearly the entire economic base.
Perhaps one of the most cost effective
ways to do that is to improve and build new
roads but its a task that the county is only
now catching up to.
The county has continued to fund the
construction of a fully connected FDR
Boulevard, but property acquisition and
environmental study continues to delay construction. Meanwhile, traffic backups and
delays continue to clog rush hour traffic to
and from the gates at Patuxent River Naval
Air Station.
Were about six to eight months behind
on that, said Commissioner Todd Morgan.
Im not happy about it.
Morgan said the countys ability to improve roads and build new ones was critical
to ensuring the growth of programs at the
base, but also the communitys well being.
We need to accommodate the bases future and the communitys future, Morgan
said. It has to be a win/win.
Its been 25 plus years since weve built a
road in St. Marys County.
Commissioner Tom Jarboe said the county is still making infrastructure progress in
building out the expansion to the St. Marys
County Airport, which includes shifting
Lawrence Hayden Road.
This project, once completed, should provide for infrastructure of another kind, Jarboe said, that being space for unmanned air
systems test flights.
He said the county had to pay close attention to what was already happening on base
since the unmanned FireScout program was

delayed traffic remains a daily occurrence.
Both Route 235 and Route 5 are state
roads; State Highway Administration officials said there are plans to improve Route
5 as it crosses over a stream just north of the
intersection with Great Mills Road.
They are also in the study phase for a plan
to improve the problem intersection but as of
now no firm solution exists.

Feral Cat Rescue got them from a business right on route 5 when they were only
2 weeks old. We were able to trap the mom
so she could nurse her babies. They are
now eight weeks old and ready to find a
home. They are so loving and bend right
into your hand for petting. They love to
be held. Parker and Paisley have lived
with three kids. They are medium hair so
they are especially pretty. You couldnt
find two sweeter kittens.
They cost $125 each. They have been
spayed/neutered, combo tested for aids
and feline leukemia, microchipped, dewormed and received their first distemper
vaccine. The price will include the distemper vaccines that will be due when they are
12 and 16 weeks old.
If you are interested, they will be at the
Petco in California on Saturdays and Sundays from 10:30 to 3 p.m. You can fill out
an application on line at www.feralcatrescuemd.org if that is easier and mail it to
diane@feralcatrescuemd.org
If you know of any cats that are outside in St Marys County that may not
be spayed or neutered, please email
Diane. Feral Cat Rescue has free
spay/neuter grants right now and can
lend traps. Lets spay and neuter all
the cats so that 205 cats a month are
not euthanized at the shelter.

This column is a guilt-ridden obligation. Ive never written about outdoor sports, despite frequently hunting and fishing in Southern Maryland
as a kid. My best childhood memories
include catching crabs, hooking yellow perch in the McIntosh Run and
hunting squirrels and deer in the fall.
But awful circumstances have forced
the subject upon me. As a human being and former hunter, Im upset and
outraged.
I owe my outdoor experiences to
two uncles who were, and still are,
avid sportsmen. They do things the
right way and ensured their apprentice
would too. I took hunter safety courses
and adhered to strict gun storage and
handling protocol. My licenses were
always current. All hunting was done
in season. Bag limits were gospel.
Game was clearly identified before
taking a shot. No mammal, fish or
crustacean was harvested against the
rules ever and every kill was used.
Nature and its species were to be respected. Taking animals from the wild
wasnt a right; it was a privilege. That
was the Native American way. Thats
how I was taught. Thats how it should
always be.
Most sportsmen share those values.
Thats why most are disgusted by the
recent death of a 13-year-old lion in
Zimbabwe. His name was Cecil. He
will roar no more.
In life, Cecil was a national treasure: a majestic, black-maned beast
who was a resident of Hwange National Park and a collared participant in an
Oxford University study. In death, he
has become a symbol of disturbing human arrogance and excess.
William Parker, an American dentist, killed Cecil. Parker, an avid big
game hunter, paid $50,000 for the
right (moneythe root of evil). He
and his local guides allegedly strapped
a carcass to their vehicle, lured Cecil
beyond the parks boundaries and
Parker shot him with a crossbow. The
injured lion was tracked for the next
40 hours (ugh) until Parker finally delivered the kill shot. Cecils head was
decapitated, his collar removed and
his body skinned and left to rot.
Regardless of whether this was a
technically legal hunt, does it sound

Wanderings
of an Aimless Mind
Nice To
Get Away
By Shelly Oppermann
Contributing Writer
Ahvacation. We finally got away
for more than an overnight or two night
vineyard or concert trip - although we
love quick overnight trips too. Last week
we took a Friday through Monday trip
to Ocean City for a gathering of my husbands three sisters. His youngest sister
Paula lives in Florida so it is not often
when they can get together. We left at
12:30 p.m. on Friday and we were extremely fortunate to not hit any traffic.
I kept thinking that
at any time we would
end up at a standstill.
We even breezed
across the Bay Bridge.
12:30 must have been
the magic time.
The only real risk
we took was when
we decided to stop at
a seafood food truck
out in the middle of
nowhere on Route 50.
We almost didnt stop
but I think the name
appealed to Robert:
Two Chicks Catering.
Ive been feeling better and we were both
feeling a bit adventurous. That ended up
to be a lucky stop too; a great homemade
Eastern Shore crab cake for my husband
and a Soft Shell Crab sandwich for me and
we split the Boardwalk type fries. Nothing
was greasy. We each kept saying, Oh this
will be the last fry and we kept saying that
until we indeed got to the last French fry.
Our hotel was very nice. The Flagship was on 26th Street and Oceanside. I
highly recommend it for price and amenities. There is an indoor and outdoor
pool, huge play area, and a pool bar with
live music on the weekends. And it was
about $400 cheaper than any of the surrounding hotels. Roberts sisters were
staying bayside on 26th, so it was perfect. The weather was perfect too: sunny
and breezy. The Blue Moon beautiful.
I had lost a lot of weight during my illness, but I think I might have gained it all
back over the weekend. Paulas Motherin-law made a Low Country Boil one
night with shrimp, sausage, potatoes, and
corn that was really good. I could only
eat the shrimp and potatoes but it was
wonderful. We had breakfast out twice
and a great Bull on the Beach restaurant
night. The main thing I wanted to do was
have strawberry jelly and cream cheese
crepes at the Bayside Skillet and we
did. In high school I used to grab a friend
and drive all the way to Ocean City to
get my crepes at The bayside Skillet and
