By Sarah Miller Staff Writer After the town council voted to adopt a uniform flat rate in June, opponents of that plan mounted a petition drive in July to allow town voters to have a say on the rate system. At the end of July, Mayor Bruce Wahl announced that enough signatures were gathered to send the issue to referendum. Town council member Jeff Krahling raised a concern that not enough valid signatures were garnered during the drive. Chesapeake Beach Board of Elections Member Ron Draper was not willing to discuss the matter. The board of elections has no comment on this until we speak with an attorney, said Draper. The town council scheduled a work session for Aug. 19 to further discuss the matter. An option council members considered was a $638,000 grant from the reserve fund to the utility fund in addition to revoking a $290,000 contribution to the reserve fund. Council members preferred to not cut funding to approved general and capital fund ex-
By Sarah Miller Staff Writer End Hunger gave away 100,000 pounds of food during the second annual Foodstock on Aug. 17 in Prince Frederick, double what they gave away last year, according to spokesperson Jacqueline Miller. Foodstock started at 9 a.m., but the first cars showed up at 6 a.m., lining up for miles. Nearly 100 volunteers showed up the day of the event to help hand out food and move boxes from the warehouse to the distribution area. St. Leonard resident Lisa Herber volunteered with Foodstock for the first time on Saturday and looks forward to being involved next year. Its a blessing to be part of it, she said. sarahmiller@countytimes.net

penditures. One council member suggested using multiple grants over the next four years to ease town residents into the change. Council member Valerie Beaudin raised concerns that is may not be legal to commit to supplementing the utility fund, which is supposed to be self-sustaining, with town money for multiple years. Wahl told her similar actions had been taken in the past, but they could confirm with the town attorney. No date has been set for a referendum vote. The Chesapeake Beach Town Council meets every third Thursday at 8 p.m. For more information, visit www.chesapeakebeach.md.us. sarahmiller@countytimes.net

By Sarah Miller Staff Writer The planetarium at Calvert High School may see some dramatic changes before the start of the 2014-2015 school year. The building currently houses offices and classrooms to fill the gap for parts of the high school still under construction. Sigmund Gorski and Alan Hayes with Volanz Aerospace, Inc., came before the Board of Education at their Aug. 15 meeting to request use of the space for a museum dedicated to space travel, featuring static and interactive displays. Volanz Aerospace, Inc. is a 501 c 3 non-profit Maryland corporation formed in 1998 to provide space science and space-related high technology educational and research programs for researchers, educators, and students of all ages, according to the website. Visitors to the museum would get the chance to touch and hold items that were designed for space travel, such as helmets and gloves. Gorski and Hayes brought a digital camera made in the 1980s, one of the first, which cost more than $2,000. It holds a maximum of 20 pictures, Hayes said, adding it is still fully functional but finding batteries is a challenge. He said items like the camera, which are interesting themselves and can tell a story, are common in programs Volanz Aerospace offers. The museum would tie in closely with STEM programs, Hayes said, adding the projection system in the planetarium itself would have to be upgraded, being older than systems in the classrooms. Board member Dawn Balinski called the idea "very exciting," especially with its STEM implications. Hayes and Gorski will be holding fundraisers, including one near Thanksgiving, to make the project happen.

By Sarah Miller Staff Writer Calvert County Public Schools Head Start Program is launching a new program for three-yearolds that will feature a home visiting component as well as community play groups. Four-year-olds will be introduced to a school environment as well as the center-based program that Head Start is known for. The grant that makes Head Start a possibility was held by the Southern Maryland Tri County Action Committee. When it went up to re-compete, Calvert, Charles and St. Marys counties each applied and received a portion of the funds, according to Calvert Head Start Coordinator Theresa Booker. Head Start will be located at Sunderland Elementary, Barstow Elementary and Patuxent Elementary in the southern region of the county. Three-year-old program participants will receive 90-minute weekly home visits with a Head Start Home Visitor who will provide curriculum, books and supplies. Parents will then spend time on a daily basis helping their child to develop school readiness skills. Group socialization will be provided in each community. Providing materials helps parents become their childs first teacher,

Families will be offered before and after care through Calvert County Public Schools. Additionally, children will receive round trip transportation from home to school, and free breakfast, lunch and snacks. To qualify, children must be born between September 2, 2008 to September 1, 2009 and meet the Head Start income requirements.

Students 14 years old or older who are entering secondary school need to meet with an IEP team to transition into secondary and post secondary education, Harris said. She hopes to improve the transition in future years.

Design Diaries...
Tis the Season to start planning your new kitchen in time for the Holidays
Design Diaries is a bi-weekly segment; meant to inspire, influence and educate homeowners that are ready to make a change to their homes but just dont know where to start.
Okso I realize it is only August, but now is the time to start planning your kitchen remodel in order to be ready for the Holidays. Every year we get clients coming into the studio at the end of October hoping to have a new kitchen by Christmas. Sometimes, depending on the scope of work, that is very doable. However, most times we are rushing to complete the details and in a full blown panic to meet the deadlines. Now is the time to start the conversation. We suggest that clients come by the studio or call to make an appointment so we can begin the initial design phase of the project. The design phase is a vital part of the process that should never be rushed. We come to the house, take measurements, provide a design proposal and get to work on the plan. We, at SKD Studios, source products from all over the globe. Sometimes it can take time to get samples in and some products are not stocked by the manufacturer/distributor, so that can also be a delay. We also meet with licensed contractors on your behalf to go over the scope of work in order to provide you with a competitive bid on the construction side of the project. Having a good design plan is like having a blueprint for the entire project. We go over every detail, from the lighting plan, to the tile details, to the paint on the walls. This way, you, the client, can feel comfortable moving forward with a "game plan". So what is your game plan for the Holidays? If you are hoping for a new backsplash or a new countertop or even a full blown kitchen remodel - now is the time to give us a call. Visit our website to see some of the projects we have completed or call the studio for an in home design consultation. We would love to help you create the kitchen of your dreams this holiday season.

the precipitation soaks into the soil and eventually returns to rivers and oceans. A person can survive on one gallon of clean water a day for drinking and cooking. The average American household uses 80 to 150 gallons of water per person, per day. It is important to remember that water is a natural resource. What contaminants run into our water and how we use that water each day affects the quality and availability of water for the future.
Water is one of the most important natural resources on earth. Seventy-five percent of the earths surface is covered by water. Most of the water, however, is seawater. Seawater becomes usable, safe for drinking, and free of harmful salt and minerals through the hydrologic cycle. The hydrologic cycle begins with the sun. Energy from the sun converts water from the oceans, rivers, and land into water vapor. Air masses move the water vapor over land, where it condenses and becomes precipitation. Rain, sleet, snow, and hail are all forms of precipitation. Some precipitation evaporates while falling toward the earth. Some evaporates when it is intercepted by plants, buildings, and cars. Most of
Bodies of water are polluted through two general sources: point sources and non-point sources. A point source is a concentrated discharge, like the outflow from a pipe at an industrial operation or a sewage treatment plant. A non-point source is stormwater runoff from nonspecific sources such as parking lots, lawns, farms, and roads. Over the last 30 years, many advances have been made in technology to reduce and control point source pollution. Point sources are easier to monitor because they come from identifiable sources. Polluted runoff from non-point sources, however, can result from stormwater flowing over large areas. In these cases, it is substantially more difficult to locate the sources and control the runoff and pollutants.
This is the third in a series of articles that Mary Ann Scott (maryann.scott58@yahoo.com) has adapted from From My Backyard to Our Bay in the hopes of increasing awareness of this powerful booklet that could do so much to help the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries.
