“For a child or adult who is Deaf, DeafBlind, hard of hearing, or has difficulty
speaking, access to a tablet computer can
make a significant difference in their ability to communicate successfully,” said
Brenda Kelly-Frey, director of Telecommunications Access of Maryland (TAM). “A
person using a tablet is no longer tethered
to a landline, and can make calls from anywhere at any time using WiFi. Maryland
has always had one of the most advanced
and comprehensive telephone equipment
distribution programs in the country, and
as phone technology continues to shift
from analog to more Internet-based solutions, it is vital that we update our equipment selection to include these new tools.
We thank Governor Hogan for his support
of this initiative and the Department of Information Technology for having the foresight to allow us to expand our program.”
“This initiative is one of the most novel
of its kind in the country, and I thank Governor Hogan, TAM Director Brenda KellyFrey, and the Department of Information
Technology for making this possible for
Deaf, DeafBlind, and hard-of-hearing
constituents,” said Kelby Brick, director of
the Governor’s Office of the Deaf and Hard
of Hearing. “The tablets’ technologies will
help expand many horizons, enabling our
constituents to become better students,
employees, and contributing members of
their communities.”

Governor Larry Hogan today announced that Maryland Relay, a public service provided by the state to assist people
who are unable to use a standard telephone
to make and receive calls, is now accepting applications for no-cost tablets through
the Maryland Accessible Telecommunications (MAT) program. The announcement
coincided with the start of “Telecommunications for All Week” in Maryland, which
lasts from September 11 through September 17, and reinforces the Hogan administration’s commitment to expanding communications services for all citizens.
“Our administration is focused on finding ways to improve the quality of life for
all of our citizens,” said Governor Hogan.
“The tablet program is just the latest example of how we are working to ensure that
all Marylanders, regardless of disability,
are able to communicate with ease — an
ability that many of us take for granted.”
Maryland residents who are unable to
use a standard telephone due to a disability
and who meet specific financial requirements are eligible to apply for a tablet computer. After an evaluation, approved applicants will receive a tablet from the State
of Maryland that will come pre-loaded
with software — including video chat or
captioned telephone programs — to assist
with telecommunication. The Maryland
Board of Public Works approved the addition of tablets to the MAT program in June
2016, and tablets will begin to be distributed this month.

science at St. Mary’s College of Maryland,
said that Clark was a strong choice for the
position due to his political experience.
Hogan’s choice also represented an
attempt to balance the compilation of
the delegation.
“The governor was sent an excellent
list, there wasn’t a bad name on it,” Eberly
said. “He [Clark] has great experience in
the county and at the Tri-County Council
as well.”
By appointing Clark to the vacant seat,
Eberly said, Hogan maintained a balance
among the delegation with two delegates,
Matt Morgan and Deb Rey, from St. Mary’s,
while one seat was reserved for Calvert.
Sen. Steve Waugh is also from Calvert.
District 29C bridges both counties but most of the population is in St.
Mary’s County.
“I think it was a wise pick,” Eberly said.
“It provides balance.”
Chairman of Calvert’s Republican Central Committee Greg Ostrander said he’s
“excited” to hear Hogan’s choice. He said
he believed that Clark would be an excellent representative for both Calvert and St.
Mary’s County.
Clark served as Calvert County Commissioner from 2002 to 2014. He is also a
local business owner for about four decades
and owns the liquor store Port of Call Wine
and Spirits in Solomons.
O pe
Gov. Larry Hogan selected Jerry Clark
to fill the 29C state delegate vacancy left
by longtime GOP Del. Tony O’Donnell.
O’Donnell was appointed by Hogan to
serve on the Public Service Commission
early this summer.
“For more than a decade, Jerry has
served the people of Calvert County, and I
am confident that he is the most qualified
candidate to represent District 29C in the
Maryland General Assembly,” Hogan said.
“He has a deep understanding of the issues
his constituents care most about.”
“I am humbled by the confidence Gov.
Hogan has in me and am honored to represent the people of Calvert and St. Mary’s
Counties,” Clark said. “I look forward to
improving the lives of District 29C’s citizens and working with the governor to continue changing Maryland for the better.”
Clark’s ascendency to the Dist. 29C delegate seat comes at a time when most of the
district is actually in St. Mary’s County,
also Clark lost the last time he ran for reelection in Calvert County.
Clark, who had served three terms as a
county commissioner in Calvert’s District
1, lost his primary bid back in the 2014
race to current County Commissioner
Mike Hart.
Clark lost by about 340 votes in a threeway race.
Despite losing out in the last election
cycle, Todd Eberly, professor of political

Maryland Issued $2.4 Billion
Tax Return

Staff Writer
Center for Social Change to Pay
$331,000 for Medicaid Fraud
Trump Signs Targeted
by Vandals
Reward Offered
By Dandan Zou
Staff Writer
County Commissioner Mike Hart said
he lost more than a dozen signs when he
ran for commissioner in 2014. At the time,
he also gave out magnet bumper stickers to
supporters. Often times people came to his
liquor store in Lusby and asked him for a
new bumper sticker because the one they
had on the car got lost.
“Those were heavy magnet bumper
stickers that can’t slide off,” Hart said. “It’s
sad when stuff like that happens. Men and
women die for the right to vote.”
Calvert Public Schools’ Board of Education Member Kelly McConkey experienced similar issues when he ran for school
board in 2012 and then for commissioner
in 2014.
“It happens every time,” McConkey
said. His signs were never vandalized, but
some got stolen. He said he lost about five
or six large signs in 2014.
The cost could add up quickly if a candidate has a few large signs missing, McConkey said. The small yard signs cost about
$4.50 a piece and large signs of four feet by
eight feet cost about $80 a piece.
The motivation behind vandalizing a
political sign may not always be politically
charged.
“The last time this happened was two
years ago,” said Todd Ireland from the
Sheriff’s Office.
“They were high-school-age kids who
did it as a prank,” Ireland said. “In lieu of
being charged, the parents of the children
agreed it would be best to make them replace the signs they destroyed.”
According to the Sheriff’s Office,
charges for damaging or defacing political
campaign signs is destruction of property.
If the signs were stolen, the individual responsible would be charged with theft.
Maryland Attorney General Brian E.
Frosh announced today that Center for
Social Change, Inc., based in Elkridge,
Maryland, will pay $331,000 to the State
of Maryland to resolve allegations that
the non-profit organization received payments from the state Medicaid program
for staffing that it did not provide to group
homes for individuals with developmental
disabilities.
Center for Social Change is responsible
for providing community-based housing
and other support services to persons with
intellectual/developmental
disabilities.
Staffing in homes is based on an evaluation
of individual needs, and payment is admin-
istered by the Developmental Disabilities
Administration. In 2011, the Center for Social Change understaffed 15 of its 30 homes
but accepted payments from the Administration for full staffing.
Attorney General Frosh thanked Medicaid Fraud Control Unit Director Ilene J. Nathan, Assistant Attorney General Jennifer
S. Forsythe, Auditor Carol Kelly and Investigator Valerie Puig for their work on this
case. Attorney General Frosh also thanked
the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene Office of the Inspector General for its
assistance.

Provided by Calvert County Republican Central Commitee
Last week, two Donald Trump for President campaign signs were reported damaged in Calvert. The Calvert County Republican Central Committee is offering a
$500 reward for information leading to the
arrest and prosecution of anyone damaging
a Republican candidate’s campaign sign.
For one sign on Route 4 in Huntingtown,
the letter T and P were blackened out by
a marker. The other damaged sign was
on Route 231 in Prince Frederick and had
its T and P cut out. Both signs were four
feet by eight feet large and were on private
property. The central committee has fixed
both signs by replacing and repainting the
letters.
“I understand that in a highly polarized
election, people get frustrated and take actions,” said Greg Ostrander, chairman of
Calvert’s Republican Central Committee.
But Ostrander said he wouldn’t support
the act of anyone defacing a candidate’s
campaign signs, regardless of whether it’s
a sign for a Republican and Democrat running for office.
Calvert has about two-dozen large
Trump signs and 700 small signs all over
the county, according to Ostrander.
“Everyone has a right to their political
opinion,” Ostrander said, adding that disagreeing with someone doesn’t mean they
can hinder other peoples’ freedom of political speech.
Ostrander said he hopes this reward
would give residents incentives to monitor
and report such behavior and stop people
from doing it again.
Last week’s incident is the first time a
political candidate’s sign being vandalized
in this election cycle. The act of damaging
or stealing a campaign sign, however, is
nothing new.

“Clearly, taxpayers have now embraced
electronic filing, and that makes a huge difference in the speed of receiving a refund,”
Comptroller Peter Franchot said.
The Comptroller’s office has 12 branch

The National Security Agency has
opened up its educational co-op program
to community college students. The College of Southern Maryland will host an information session for eligible students at 6
p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 14, at the La Plata
Campus in the Center for Business and
Industry (BI Building), Room 113, 8730
Mitchell Road, La Plata.
The NSA program provides paid employment during alternating semesters,
tuition reimbursement, and one class prepaid during the accepted student’s “off”
semesters.
“This is a great opportunity that NSA
has been managing for more than 50 years,
and they have now opened up applications
from community college students who plan
to continue on to a four-year degree,” said
Wendy Hume Hayes, CSM cybersecurity
program coordinator in the college’s Business and Technology Division.
CSM students who have declared one of
the following majors – cybersecurity, information systems security, computer science, computer engineering and electrical
engineering -- and have completed no more
than 24 credit hours toward a degree, may
be eligible to apply for a paid internship.
Students also must be U.S. citizens and be
able to pass a background check.
Hayes will explain the NSA co-op program, and CSM Career Services will be on
hand to help students polish their application materials.
“Having NSA recognize the high-level
technical skills our community college students earn is a great achievement,” Hayes
said. “This is an amazing opportunity our
students should not pass up.”
CSM was designated a National Centers
of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense
2-Year Education (CAE2Y) by the NSA
and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security for the second time last fall. The college joins 23 of the more than 1,200 community colleges across the nation to receive
the honor, which recognizes the quality of
the college’s cybersecurity educational
practices and curriculum.
According to the National Initiative for
Cybersecurity Education, the global shortage of skilled security practitioners is predicted to reach 1.5 million by 2020. In the
U.S., there are more than 209,000 unfilled
cybersecurity jobs and the demand for information security professionals is expected to grow by 53 percent through 2018, according to an independent analysis of numbers from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Long Time Redskins Fan’s
Loyalty Honored
9
Sports
Now iS the time to reNovate,
redo, or overSeed Your lawN
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
For the past 74 years George Guy, founder of Guy Distrbuting Co. in Leonardtown,
has never missed a home opening game for
the Washington Redskins and at Monday
night’s game his favorite team honored him
for never giving up on them.
He got to spend time with the team on the
field and even got a tour of the stadium and
pressbox, he told The County Times.
“For the first 50 years of that, I never
missed a game,” Guy, 92, said Tuesday.
“I’ve been fortunate.”
He’s been attending games for so long he
can even remember service members being
called out of one game back to base on Dec.
7, 1941; Pearl Harbor had just been attacked
by the Japanese, hurtling the United States
into World War II.
“That’s a big memory in his life,” his
daughter Karen Guy said.
He’s such a dedicated fan, Karen remembered, that he once went to a game in
heavy snow and got stuck in a snow bank;
he left the car there and walked on to the
stadium anyway.
Guy said that he remembered coming
home from school as a boy and listening
to the radio broadcasts of the Redskins and
the baseball team the Washington Senators.

Garden Classes Start

George with grandson Mark on the field
It was then that he got hooked.
“They were the only teams in the
area,” Guy said. “I just love the teams in
Washington.
“I can’t root for other teams like I can for
the Washington Redskins.”
Guy said he was able to take to the field
twice, being honored as such a long-standing season ticket holder.
He got to meet former Redskins quarterback and sports legend Sonny Jurgensen
and was interviewed in the team’s radio
booth.
“That’s the first time I’ve ever been on
the playing field,” Guy said. “We had a
pretty nice time.”
Despite his beloved team’s poor performance against the Pittsburgh Steelers,
he has no plans of switching to any other
brand.
“I’m not turning,” Guy said. “It’s just a
game, it’s just a sport.”

the chance to drive his car here tonight.”
Moreland stated post race. “We made some
changes after the heat race and the car was
the best it’s been since I’ve driven it.” Superb track conditions aided Moreland in
his winning drive. “This place was awesome tonight.” Said Moreland. “This track
has had a great surface all season and I
hope we put on a good show for the fans
tonight.” Brandon Long was solid in third
with David Williams and Billy Tucker
rounding out the top-five. With his 6th
place finish, Daryl Hills was crowned the
2016 track champion, his second consecutive title at the track. “We didn’t have the
run we would have liked tonight, but it’s a
great feeling to get a championship for this
team.”
In support class action, Barry Williams
Sr.drove to his 3rd win of the season and career 23rd,in the 16-lap Sreet Stock feature.
On the strength of a 7-win season, Mike

From a quick scan of team names
listed on the event website, many
teams are organized by families in
honor of a loved one who was affected by the disease. The top fundraising team in Southern Maryland
is Team Care Blairs, who raised
nearly $15,000 so far.
Contributions are tax-deductible
and can be made through Dec. 31,
said LaKeysha Boyd-Moore, coordinator of the Walk. Between September and October, there are seven
walks planned in Northern Virginia, Washington D.C. and Maryland.
The two-mile walk starts at 10
a.m. Saturday at Asbury Solomons.
The route is very nice
and scenery by the water,
Boyd-Moore said. She added that the walk is a familyfriendly event where there
will be exhibitors with
Alzheimer’s-related information and music.
Saturday’s Walk is a rain
or shine event. For residents who are interested
in going, the Alzheimer’s
Association requires every
walker to register on their
event website. There is no
registration fee for walk.
On Walk day, each
registered walker will
receive a wristband and
a promise garden flower.
The flower is color-coded
to symbolize how Alzheimer’s affects each
person. Blue represents
someone who is living with Alzheimer’s or
dementia; purple is for
someone who has lost a
loved one to the disease;
yellow means someone
who is currently supporting or caring for someone
with Alzheimer’s and orange is for everyone who
supports the cause.
thinking and behavior, and the symptoms
usually worsen over time. It is the sixth
leading cause of death in the nation and
the only cause of death in the top 10 that
cannot be prevented, cured or slowed.
According to Alzheimer’s Association,
nearly 16 million caregivers are caring for
more than five million patients across the
country. In 2016, Alzheimer’s is expected
to cost the nation more than $230 billion.
The Walk first started as Memory Walk
in 1989 with nine chapters of Alzheimer’s
Association and about 1250 participants.
The annual event has
grown to more than
50,000 teams walking in more than 600
communities, raising
more than $75 million across the nation
in 2015.
The national fundraising goal is shared
by thousands of teams.
As of press time,
Southern Maryland’s
36 teams have reached
about 70 percent of the
$60,000
fundraising
goal this year.

More than 400 residents in Southern
Maryland are expected to walk in Solomons this Saturday to raise awareness
and funds for Alzheimer’s care, support
and research.
The event is hosted by the local chapter
of Alzheimer’s Association, a global nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing
“research to end Alzheimer’s and dementia while enhancing care for those living
with the disease.”

Parenting and Professional
Empowerment Conference
By Dandan Zou
Staff Writer
A two-day local conference designed
to empower parents and education professionals will be held at Calvert County Emmanuel Baptist Church starting this Friday.
The conference aims to provide parents,
teachers and education-related professionals information about mental health issues
and behavioral challenges among young
children and adolescents. Participants can
expect to learn about symptoms of mental disorders, diagnostic criteria, teaching strategies and available resources for
treatment.
The conference is a chance for parents
and professionals to learn about mental
health and behavior issues and get together
to network, said Sonia Hinds, founder and
executive director of Barstow Acres Children Center, a local non-profit organization
who sponsored the conference. “When consumers are informed, we get better results.”
Hinds said the annual conference started
about 13 years ago, and she expects that
100 people would attend the conference
this year.
Hinds wanted to emphasize that “the
training is free for parents” and “it is not
too late to register now.”
The conference would start at 8:30 a.m.
and end at 4:30 p.m. on Sep. 16 and 17.
Keynote speakers include Angela Bollich
and Suzanna Hillegass. Bollich is a therapist and neuropsychologist of 15 years with
specialty in treating learning disabilities,
ADHD and autistic disorder. Hillegass
is a social worker specializing in helping
couples and individuals improving their
relationships.
Workshop sessions include findings and
updating what we know about autism spectrum disorder and ADHD, healing your
marriage or committed relationship, anger
management and emotional regulation and
emotional IQ for kids, and helping youth and
adults to solve their conflicts themselves.
For vendors and working professionals, admission fee is $85 per day. Box lunches are
available for purchase at $10 per day.
According to Hinds, Barstow Acres
Children Center “provides individual,
group, family therapy, play therapy and
therapeutic art activities for healing.” The
center also offers “a therapeutic summer
day camp” and “learning opportunities and
experience for university interns earning a
graduate-level degree in counseling.”

Southern Marylander You Should Know
COMMUNITY VOLUNTEER AND SOON TO BE EAGLE SCOUT
This week’s story is about the most
amazing young man I have met here in
Southern Maryland! Josh DeGuzman is a
fifteen year old sophomore at Patuxent High
School here in Lusby. I recently learned of
a project that he put together to meet a requirement to earn his Eagle Scout rank as
a Boy Scout in Troop 427 here in Calvert
County. He made a presentation at Our
Lady Star of the Sea a month ago asking for
support to help complete a fence to separate the school yard from the public parking lot shared by the Parish during school
days and Sunday masses. When I returned
from being out of town for two weeks, I
was astonished to see the finished project
this Scout had accomplished in such a short
amount of time! It is quite an achievement
and I knew I wanted to talk with him and
learn more about his motivation as I knew
it would make for a good story!
Josh was born in St. Mary’s Hospital
and has lived in the same home in Drum
Point his entire life. His parents are both
employed at Patuxent River; his dad Armando is a retired Marine helicopter pilot
now working as a Safety Officer and his
mother Susan is an aerospace engineer.
His younger brother David is thirteen and
is also a Boy Scout and helped him with
this project. They are a very close, tight
knit family that do many things together.
They are into outdoor activities involving
boating and camping. They live in a house
on the waterfront and Josh enjoys water
sports such as wake boarding, knee boarding, wake surfing, and tubing. He is also
into learning various survival skills and
martial arts and has become proficient in
“Krav Maga” and “Aikido”. Yikes, I never
heard of these forms and I had to have Josh
spell them for me! And during his freshman year at Patuxent High, he lettered on
the varsity Tennis, Golf, and Swimming
Teams while attaining almost all “A”s on
his report card. Whew! I am exhausted
just writing about all these attributes! At
this point in our interview I am beginning
to wonder where he finds the time for all
of these pursuits. It reminds me of the old
adage, “If you want something done, give it
to a busy person”!
I wanted to know more about his wonderful Eagle Scout project, so I had Josh
tell me why he picked this particular effort.
He said he was searching for a meaningful
job that he was capable of performing and
decided to approach his Pastor, Monsignor
Mike Wilson last Fall to learn if there were
any jobs within the Parish that needed to be
accomplished? The good Padre suggested a
fence between the playground area and the
parking lot to provide an extra measure of
safety for the students. Josh put together a
plan and approached the Boy Scout leadership with the idea to learn if it qualified as a
worthy project for his Eagle Scout Award.
It was soon approved and he started to put
his plans in motion. He knew he would
need a considerable sum of money just for
the material required to construct a fence
measuring over 200 feet long and set out to
gain financial support for his undertaking.
He received a grant from the OLSS Parish and a donation from the local Knights
of Columbus Council 9258. He made his
pitch to the Parish at three weekend Masses
and obtained a break from Lowe’s on their
advertised price for fencing products. Before you knew it, Josh had amassed over
$1600 to pursue his project!
Next, he needed to obtain experienced
workers to help coordinate the various
means for erecting a fence. He had to make
plans for such things as post hole placement, number of posts and post caps and
cross members to put between the posts.
And he needed an auger to dig the holes
and someone to operate it. Within days,
he put together a crew of more than 40 volunteers that included members of the Parish, Knights of Columbus, fellow scouts,
school kids, and others who heard of his
idea. Josh’s team spent 6 hours a day for
two days laboring in +90 degree heat to
finish this work in one weekend in an effort to be ready for the school’s opening in
late August! All told, over 200 volunteer
man hours were expended in accomplishing this task! His mother told me an older
lady who was unable to help came and
watched the progress and offered lots of
encouragement.
I wanted to know upon finishing this
job, what did he gain or learn from these
efforts? He smiled and said he was at first
apprehensive by the daunting task at hand,
especially with directing the efforts of so
many adults!!! Yes, I can understand that!
Directing adult volunteers can be somewhat scary for a 15 year old. Heck, I still
become intimidated when trying to motivate older volunteers in some of the events
I somehow become involved in! Ever try
saying No to a priest or a nun? Probably
not going to happen! But he did say once
they got underway, it did get much easier
and he did gain confidence in himself to
lead this diversified group! He also said he
hopes his work might inspire other young
people to become attracted to Scouting. He
finds it to be a lot of fun with lots of great
experiences.
Josh, to see your completed project was a
real surprise for me. To think you pulled it
off as quickly as you did is truly amazing.
It is a magnificent piece of work, one that
you should be especially proud for making
it happen. Your ability to “honcho” such an
endeavor and motivate your sponsors and
your crew is nothing short of outstanding!
Finally, I asked Josh what are his plans
for the future? Without flinching, he responded with his goals of earning a Mechanical Engineering degree from M.I.T.,
then becoming a Navy Officer and joining
The Seals!!! He would like to do a 20 year
military career like his dad, then get involved in designing military hardware as an
engineer. He also states, due to his desire
to be outdoors and his love for hiking, hunting, and fishing, he hopes to have a cabin in
the mountains, “but I will always consider
Southern Maryland to be my home”!
I am confidant with great mature young
people like Josh within our midst, our future is in good hands! He is the youngest
subject I have ever interviewed for my stories of unsung heroes. He is really an enjoyable conversationalist! Josh, thank you
for all you do!
