On the Agenda
Submitted by Gary Bauchan Assistant Scoutmaster
The Boy Scouts in Troop 1033 located in Beltsville, Md. traveled to Columbia, Md. to Earth Trek,
which is an indoor climbing facility. The scouts
learned the proper way to put on a harness and helmet, tie themselves in with a proper figure 8 knot
and the correct commands for belaying. The scouts
practiced their skills in the one story instructional
area before they applied their skills in the 3 story tall
climbing walls. The scouts accomplished parallel
climbing while passing a ball to each other up the
wall practicing balance, concentration, and determination all skills which could come in handy in a
rescue situation. Boy Scouts Luis Cabrera-Espinal,
Mory Diaby, Al Diagne, Vlad Kovalsiy, Randy
Nunez, Surya Pukazhenthi, Tyis Robinson, Henry
Saathoff, and Luke Yarmis and Webelo Cub Scouts
Sam d’Eustachio, Daniel Finke, Daniel Saathoff,
and Abel Varghese all reached new heights in learning climbing skills and the trill of reaching the top
of the building.

Of French origin, the very nature
of the word foyer seems intimidating.
After all, this is where guests garner
their first impression of your home.
In olden days the foyer had a very
practical purpose, to create an
“airlock” to prevent cold air from the
front door from traveling through
the rest of the house. Today, however,
foyers are often decorative, adorned
with artwork and wallpaper to create
a warm and inviting entryway into a
home. Some foyers are less formal,
serving as a place to leave shoes,
jackets and keys. Whether formal or
casual, there are many ways to make
a foyer distinctive.
The owners, Michael Richards
and Valerie Kabelac have years of
invaluable experience and in-depth
knowledge about all the products they
carry.
Insufficient lighting and cramped
space are typical of many foyers.
To compensate for the lack of
natural light, local design pros
Valerie Kabelac and Michael
Richards of Will’s Home Decorating
(www.decoratemar yland.com)
recommend bringing the outdoors in
by painting the walls with Benjamin
Moore’s sunny Westin Flax (HC5) or Castleton Mist (HC-1). For
added light and a touch of elegance
accentuate the reflective quality of
the space with a convex mirror and
a charming Uttermost ceiling fixture
with a white satin drum shade and
metal overlay. According to Valerie,
“Nothing makes a foyer feel more
spacious than a chic geometric
Thibaut wall paper or a natural fiber
grasscloth. Dressing up the window
is also essential. A fabric Roman
shade adds warmth and color.”
Finally, tie in the color scheme with
artwork. Michael has an eye for art
and can help select the perfect piece.
Michael says, “Don’t be afraid to use
a larger, colorful piece in the foyer.
As long as it pulls out the paint color
and is complemented by an area
rug it will look great.” Stop by Will’s

WARNING
Children’s Corner
By Denita Johnson
Springtime is here, what a
wonderful time of the year. It
brings new beginnings, spring
cleaning and yard work. It
is also the time to think
of ideas to keep our
children creative and
enjoying more outside time. When
you are doing
your
spring
cleaning and yard
work make sure you
involve your children
and make it a fun
learning experience
for them to continue
each year. For the creative side here are a few
ideas to try.
1. Make or paint a birdhouse to hang in your yard to
do some bird watching.
2. Paint flowerpots, put stickers on them or decoupage them
and plant spring flowers.
3. Spring is sports time. Make
baseball cards of the pictures you
are taking or put the pictures on
a homemade sports page when
scrap booking.
4. Make bug crafts, such as egg
carton bugs, antennae headbands,
craft a foam worm bookmark, cut
out bug pictures, glue to cardboard and make into magnets,
make butterflies with your child’s
handprints.
5. Make rainbows using cereal, candy, buttons, paper, yarn or
whatever you can think of.
6. Remember Earth
Day and make
recyclable crafts
then watch Dr.
Suesss Lorax
for a family
movie night.
7. Use jar lids,
bottle caps, plastic
tub lids and frozen
juice can lids for
magnets, pictures,
pins or tacks instead
of just throwing
them away
8. Do you have one sock and
can’t find the match? Use it for a
puppet or make a sock doll.
9. Think of some fun spring
snacks. Try some Jell-O recipes.
They are easy and a very good
snack for everyone.
10. Make a picture book of
spring pictures from bugs to animals to flowers or family.
Enjoy your spring and have
some fun!

Beltsville Strategy Games Club
By John Goon
Thanks to support from the generous Rotary Club of Beltsville,
the staunch members of the Games
Club of Maryland (GCOM), and
the amazing students from the
Parkdale High School Games
Club, the Beltsville Strategy
Games Club’s first ever GAMES
DAY on March 16, 2013 exceeded
all expectations by a country mile.
Over 50 people registered for the
event that saw a healthy mix of
experienced gamers and newbies.
In addition, dozens of non-playing
observers came in to see what the
commotion was all about. The
community center multipurpose
room was jam packed all day.
Beltsville Games Day 2013 demonstrated that gaming events can
succeed with a few bare essential
ingredients, including a variety of
old/new games, players who enjoy
teaching-learning-playing, a goodsized furnished room, supportive
and capable facility staff, volunteers who are willing to get their
hands dirty, and ample funding.
The Beltsville Strategy Game
Club volunteer team included
John Barringer (and son Andrew),
Rembert Shaw, John Webber (host
of the Laurel Games Club and
GCOM Board member), and John
Goon. John Barringer managed
the registration table and the sale
of raffle tickets. Rembert Shaw
and John Weber interacted with
and engaged the main audience
of players. The latter was an especially vital function given the large
number of newbie players that
participated. John Goon acquired
the raffle items, the student incentive games, and snacks/drinks. It
was non-stop busy, and a lot of
fun.
Teacher Susan Bors brought
in a contingent of about 15 of
Parkdale High School Game Club
students. They made a distinctly
favorable impression on the whole
event with their youthful energy
and spirit. It was heartening to see
this positive aspect of our next
generation of citizens.
The GCOM community was
also well represented with several
Board members in attendance. The
older GCOMers jumped into the
thick of things right away and set
a great mentoring example for the
youngsters. The intergenerational
energy was in ultra high flow this
day.
Approximately $680 was spent
for the event. $300 went to raffle prizes and school incentives.

$350 was for games to build up
the Beltsville Games Club inventory. $70 went for food. These
costs were offset by the raffle that
brought in $41. That revenue will
be deposited into the Beltsville
Games Club’s WCCB-managed
checking account to support a
future event.
Special thanks are in order to
the Rotary Club of Beltsville that
contributed $500 to the Beltsville
Strategy Games Club as part of
their annual support program
for 2012-2013. The Games Club
relationship with the Rotary Club
began in 2002, and there has been
a grant for every year since then.
The GCOM Board donated
$150 to the Beltsville Games Day
event and their support could not
have come at a better time. For
events like this, every bit helps
and makes the job easier for the
organizers and volunteers in the
long run.
We saw representation from
our sister clubs in Laurel and
Greenbelt as well. John Weber led
the Laurel group. Rebecca Kuipers
came in from Greenbelt.
The Beltsville Community
Center staff excelled with their
support and advice, as usual. Tricia Fancovic and Mike Hanborough made sure to grease the skids
every step of the way. It’s nice to
know that the Community Center
is in the hands of true professionals. It’s one less thing for an
organizer like myself to have to
worry about.
By day’s end, we had left the
multipurpose room the way we
had found it in, clean as a whistle,

es, and most recently a program
officer at the NIH. Growing vegetables on her seven-acre farm is
her major gardening interest, and
as a Master Gardener she participates in the Olney Plant Clinic,
and helps out at information tables
at community events.
Janet Young’s science background naturally prompted her to
ask, “What exactly do we know
about how companion planting
works?” Many gardeners are
familiar with long lists of suggested companion plants to encourage
plant well being.
While Ms.
Young’s presentation includes a
practical component, her talk pri-
marily addresses what we know
about how some companion plantings actually work, and why sometimes they don’t. She will explore
the history, science, and challenges of implementing this practice in
our own gardens. Please join us to
get “the Real Story”!

High Road Upper School Students Spell Their Way to Victory
The students of High Road
Upper School, located at 12050
Baltimore Ave in Beltsville, participated in their 2nd Annual School
Wide Spelling Bee on March 15th.
The students participated in
preliminary rounds by classroom
on the 7th of March with winners
moving to the semi-final round
to determine individual classroom
winners. The individual classroom
winners then competed for the
school wide Grand Championship
on the 15th. There were over 40
participants involved in this year’s
competition to become the 2013
Grand Champion.
According to Sean Hicks, event
coordinator, “Each student was
encouraged to participate and
everyone tried to motivate the students to be excited about spelling.
It is easier to be popular than it is
to spell it. The feeling that you get
when you spell one word correctly
can carry you on for one thousand
years.”
The finalists for 2013 Grand
Championship were, Breona
Simms, Chaise Grady, Diane
Cook, Annika Sligh, Alexis Alston
and Simiya Kent. All students
were given challenging words
to spell and encouraged to do
their best. At the end of the third
round there were only three contenders left: Alexis, Annika and
Chaise. The final round produced
Alexis as the third place winner, Chaise as the runner-up and

Second Graders Ponder Whether They Prefer
Early Spring or Six More Weeks of Winter
By Becky Cavallo
As
Ground
Hog
day
approached, the students at Calverton voted as to which way they
wanted the Ground Hog to decide.
While an Early Spring was the
winner of the school-wide poll
taken during media classes, many
students were still hoping for a
little more winter. Some students
in Mr. Hayes’s second grade class
offered these views after listening
to a story about Ground Hog day.
Six More Weeks of Winter
Jimmy Melgar said. “I would
like six more weeks of winter
because I want to play in the
snow. I don’t want the snow to
melt because I like to play with
the snow and because we can have
snow fights and because when we
go to the park we can do anything
with it. I like playing in the snow
because it is fun to play in it.
What is really fun is playing with
friends.”
Karla Medrano said, “I made
this choice because I thought
about it. I would like it to be six
more weeks of winter because I
want to stay sleeping in my bed so
I can stay warm.”
Early Spring
Nayeli Espinoza said, “I pick
early spring because it’s almost
my birthday and you don’t have to
wear a heavy jacket. The weather
is not too hot and not too cold
and I like rain. The flowers grow
out of the ground and I love the
way it smells. The weather is nice
and you can go for walk. You can
jump in the puddles of water.”
Allen V. said, “I want it to
be early spring because I can go
outside and play with my friends.
I can play with them in football
and soccer and tag, even hide and
seek. I can go to the park and play
with them on the swings and slide,
too, and on the biggest slide.
Amadou said, “I would like
6 more weeks of spring because
winter is cold and spring is hot
and that is why I want 6 more
weeks of spring. In spring we can
go outside and play and have fun.
Spring is cool and so awesome. I
can play all day. If we had 6 more
weeks of spring it will be the happiest day on earth. It will be good
and so nice on earth. I will do my
work all day long. I love school
and it is so cool and awesome. I
love it.”
Reporter’s comment: I am typing these responses on a snow day,
but I imagine the spring enthusiasts will be enjoying the warmer
weather when the paper comes
out.
Just walk in for
camp & sports physicals!
We’re here when you need us.

treated.
Bravo to the drama club, Ms.
Betty Smalls and the cast of the
musical Hairspray who created a
memorable event for the 2012-13

first period on Friday, March 15. The
play was performed for the public
on Friday, March 15 and Saturday,
March 17.
High Point would like to thank
and congratulate the drama club for
creating a memorable experience for
all.
Musical Theater Returns To High Point
By Rick Bergmann
A few weeks ago on a Saturday
morning, I woke up and did what
many people do I logged on to
check Facebook. I wasn’t looking
for anything in particular, I don’t
even know what possessed me to
log on but I am glad I did. I saw
a post from one of my former
teachers at High Point that said the
school was producing a musical
and tickets were just $5. My first
reaction was to ask myself, did
High Point still do theater at all?
I can’t tell you the last time I had
heard about a play being produced
at the school. I was excited too
because that meant that once again
there were students at High Point
learning to love theater. My four
years in the auditorium at High
Point gave me a wealth of training
and knowledge but also a love and
respect for the art of live theater.
So, I changed some plans, texted
a few friends and off we went
to see High Point’s production of
Hairspray!
It was wonderful being back in
the auditorium watching students
learn and perform on stage. Hairspray is a big undertaking because
it is a heavy dance show, a period
piece, a costume heavy show and
one of the lead characters has to
be a man in drag. Also, the show is
about race relations in the 1960’s,
which means usually you have to
be very specific in your casting.
The director at High Point went in
a different direction though, instead
of sticking with the traditional casting of white actors in the “white”
roles and African-American actors
in the “black” roles she chose to
embrace the diversity of the school
and cast the right actors for the
right roles regardless of skin color.
What this did is made the audience see the deeper message of
the show. That message is that you

School News
Calverton Elementary School Poetry Spotlights
In celebration of Poetry Month
this April, we would like to share
some of the poetry we have written this year in the media center.
Spring
By various poets in Mrs. Berg’s class
If spring was a color it would
be as green as clover, as light yellow as the sun, as blue as the sky,
as orange as a tangerine
If spring was a taste it would
be as sweet as the honey made by
bees, as sweet as ice cream,
If spring was a feeling it would
be as happy as a bouncing chipmunk, as warm as the shining sun,
as calm as the cool breeze
If spring was a smell it would
be the smell of flowers, as sweet
as a rose, fresh like fruit
If spring was a sound it would
be as peaceful as the birds chirping, the sound of joy, a symphony
Spring is wonderful because of
its warmth
Spring is beautiful with white
roses
Spring is joyful like jazz
Spring is best
Things To Do If You Were a
Water Drop
By Jvore Morris
Go with the flow
Be evaporated
Fall with the rain

Cleanse everything

Things to Do If I Were a Dog
By Mekal M. Bowrin
If I were a dog I would chase
after cats and cuddle with poodles.
I would bark all day and eat.
I would bite anyone who would
cause harm.
My bark would be an alarm.
I would do tricks like shaking
hands.
I would do bad things like eating plants.
I would take bubble baths and
be well groomed.
I would do a lot of things like
run away from the vacuum.
I would play with the other
dogs who would hog the ball.
I would eat, play, sleep and do
it all again the next day.
When people ask to rub my
belly, the answer would be,
Busy Month at Calverton
February may be the shortest
month of the year, but at Calverton
Elementary it was a month jampacked with activities and fun as
students and staff celebrated Black
History Month and prepared for
the MSA (Maryland State assessments).
Black History Month activities
included trivia questions each day
that challenged students and staff to
find the names of famous African
Americans. Staff shared delicious
dishes at their African American
luncheon on Feb. 27. The culminating event was a wonderful program
put on by the Sankofa dancers who
performed for two assemblies on
March 1. The drummer and two
dancers explained the importance
of dance in African culture and
the reasons to dance: to welcome
visitors, for happy celebrations like
weddings, sad occasions, such as
funerals, for harvesting, and for
just plain fun. The students enjoyed
participating in a fun dance at the
end of the program. The Sankofa
Dance theater, based in Baltimore,
chose the word “Sankofa” for its
company because it refers to a term
that means to look backwards in
order to understand the future.
The week preceding the MSA
tests was spirit week. Students and
staff enjoyed wearing crazy socks
on Monday, dressing the same as
a friend or colleague for twin day/
double day on Tuesday (for double
digit gains!), favorite hat day on
Wednesday for “Hats off for the
MSA,” school spirit day on Thursday when everyone wore school
colors. Friday was Pajama Day
(encouraging students to get a good
night’s sleep before each test day).
Also on Friday, the students were
treated to a lively performance
from the High Point High School
drum corps and the Gold and Black
dancers at a pep rally for the MSA.
Pajama Day was also Read
Across America Day, perfect for
listening to a book during a Dr.
Seuss story time and cuddling with
favorite teddy bears. Other events
in February were the STEM fair,
a Valentine’s Day dance, and an
Awards Breakfast with parents
attending to honor their students
who made the honor roll and/or
got citizenship awards for good
behavior and work habits.
Theater
Betty Smalls and her team should
be proud of their show and High
Point should be commended for
bringing theater back in a big way.
The kids’ energy and enthusiasm
made the show extremely enjoyable. I look forward to seeing what
next school year brings for High
Point’s theater program.
should love yourself for who you
are and be tolerant of all people are
around you. The idea of colorblind
casting really made the show come
alive in a way I hadn’t seen before.
The cast, crew, director, Ms.
When days begin to lengthen
And Winter blows away;
The thawing earth, rejoicing,
Sends upward shouts of praise.
“Yes, you may.”
If I Were in Charge of the World
New growth provides a promise,
While hopes renewed sprout high;
Rebirth inspires the season,
As nature comes alive
By Britney Fonmboh
If I were in charge of the world
I’d say that everything is free
I’d be a singer
I’d make children the boss of
grown-ups
There would be ice cream land
There would be many schools
for children who did not go to
school
You wouldn’t have to cry that
you don’t have any money
You wouldn’t have to take any
bullying because you would go to
jail if you were bullying
You wouldn’t clean the house
because there would be robots to
do that
Deep breaths of warm air freshen,
Strength stirs, invigorates;
All rise to meet the future
Washed by its faithful rains.
Much wisdom moves this cycle;
Let truth inform, ignite,
As expectation’s arrow
Draws aim in great delight.
This time each year brings blessing,
Reminders of the One
Who melts hearts cold in darkness
To springs beneath His Son.

STUFF ‘N THINGS
Here it comes again, a recipe
on baking powder biscuits. Yes, I
know it’s not the first time, but if
keep writing it maybe you’ll give
it a try and be surprised. What is
that stuff, Bisquick? Set oven to
400 degrees.
In a medium size bowl place
1 stick of butter or margarine
(room temp) 1&1/4 cup flour, 1
tablespoon sugar, 1 tablespoon
baking powder 1/2 tsp salt. Mix
together with your hand to form a
crumbly mix. Now mix in 1/2 cup
cold milk. A bit at a time knead
until a firm mass, not slack or
loose; dump onto cutting board
and cut out 4 biscuits 2 inches
wide and 3/4 inch thick. NOTE!
When kneading, if it seems too
soft, add a bit more flour. Just a
few drops more or less of milk
can make a difference. Don’t try
to get 5 or 6 they will be too thin.
STOP and scrape down that bowl
with your Bakerbill scraper. If you
don’t have one I’ll send you one.
Crack an egg and whip up with
a couple drops of water (this is
called egg wash). Paint the top of
the biscuits and bake about 15 to
18 minutes until nice and brown.
There will be no wet spots like
cake. There is a misunderstanding
that if you mix too much it will
make them tough. NOT TRUE.
Yes there are a couple of baked
goods that can be over mixed but
not many. Cookies come to mind
I’ve written often about having no wet spots. Here’s what
I mean about that. People who
write recipes use a broom straw or
tooth pick to check for wet spots
showing that the cake is done, but
it seldom works. If there is a wet
spot it will come out clean from
the moisture. So you still can’t
be sure and later there are tears.
With my method of touching very
lightly with the tip of your finger
you can tell instantly if there is
a wet spot or not. While I write
about wet spots, if you take the
cake out early and it falls apart,
through your tears put it back in
the oven and re-bake. No, it will
not rise again, but it can be eaten
and it will taste good. Put a lot of
frosting in the area, no one will
know.
In the consumer corner, I heard
a comedian lately say he hated big
box hardware stores, because in
their ads they trick us into thinking
we can build that side room. After
walking all the aisles I saw none
marked “Talent.” If you earn your
living at a desk, leave the building
to the carpenter. Of course I don’t
hate the stores. I’ve even fallen for
the advertising from time to time.
I’m not one to buy stuff that needs
to be put together. I remember
when my girls were little having
to put together that tin kitchen
stove set on Christmas Eve. Slot A
never lined up with slot B, and all
the bloodletting.
If you would like to comment
on anything I have written or have
a question about anything, I have
an opinion. Reach me at bill@

everything I write is my opinion
only.
