Rotary Club Sponsored Events
Rotary Club of Catonsville Sponsors Multiple Community Programs & Events
A number of events during this upcoming weekend of May 12-13, 2012 highlight the activities of the Rotary Club of Catonsville as a sponsor and promoter of some Catonsville community events and programs.
Bloomsbury Ave. Wall Mural
Work has just begun, after more than two years of planning, on a 1200 square foot community Bloomsbury Ave. wall mural. The mural will depict a number of scenes from Frederick Road over the last 100+ years of Catonsville history. It will be painted behind the newly renovated House of Time at 701 Frederick Road, on the exterior wall of the M&T Bank Building at 705 Frederick Road. With formal sponsorship by the Rotary Club of Catonsville, community activist Meg Tipper served as Project Coordinator, and solicited significant contributions from a number of Catonsville businesses and organizations to make the project possible. Local artist Ed Williams is the artistic director, and high school student volunteers from Catonsville High School’s National Art Honor Society will help with the painting. The mural is expected to be complete prior to Catonsville’s annual Fourth of July parade, which is one of the scenes depicted on the mural.
Catonsville First Annual Kite Contest
Charlestown Retirement Community will be the location of Catonsville’s First Annual Kite Contest on Saturday, May 19th, from 10 am to noon. Prizes will be awarded for several categories, with students from local elementary schools, the community and even some Charlestown residents competing for highest flying, longest flying, most creative, and most unusual kites. The contest was a creation of Pat Kasuda, the President of the Charlestown Rotary Fellowship, who immediately enlisted both Charlestown Management and the Catonsville Rotary Club as co-sponsors. Both organizations have already committed to making the contest an annual springtime event.
Catonsville Arts Expo
The 3rd Annual Catonsville Arts Expo will be held on Saturday and Sunday, May 19 - 20, 2012 at the Bloomsbury Community Center, 106 Bloomsbury Ave.from 10 am - 5 pm each day.
Under the leader ship of the Catonsville Arts Guild, the Expo will include most forms of art including small sculptures, paintings, film shorts, musicians, theater, writers, stained glass, and jewelers. Event organizer Jane Byers first approached The Rotary Club of Catonsville and asked them to sponsor the event in 2011, and this year that sponsorship has continued, with Lorraine Imwold assuming the role of organizer.
Women’s Expo - Scholarship & Financial Aid Awards Announced
The Women’s Expo, held on March 10-11, 2012, has just released its annual report. In addition to featuring more than 100 exhibitors from women-based businesses, motivational speakers, crafts and jewelry, holistic health and fitness, and business finance workshops, the Expo turned a profit of approximately $7,500, all of which was donated to various CCBC funds for financial aid, scholarships, and the Mansion restoration project. The CCBC - Catonsville chapter of the American Association for Women in Community Colleges started this event eleven years ago as a fundraiser for student scholarships. Last year, the CCBC Enterprise Institute, under the direction of Prof. L. C. Aaronson, took over the active management of this program, and he asked the Rotary Club of Catonsville to serve as the formal Expo sponsor for 2012. The Enterprise Institute and Rotary Club intend to continue working together in the future, and build on the success of the past 12 years.
Catonsville Teacher Awards
Finally, a longstanding Catonsville tradition founded by the predecessor to the current Catonsville Rotary Club has been revived and relaunched by Catonsville Chamber of Commerce as the Catonsville Outstanding Teacher Awards . Each year for more than 30 years, the Catonsville Rotary Club honored one teacher and one senior student from Catonsville High School at an Awards Banquet as the Teacher and Student of the Year. The teacher received an award certificate, as well as a voucher for dinner at the Candlelight Inn, the club's regular meeting place. The Student of the Year received a $1,000.00 scholarship to assist them with their college education. This annual event continued uninterrupted until the club disbanded due to lack of members in 2010. The former Catonsville Sunrise Rotary Club assumed the name "Rotary Club of Catonsville" in 2011, but did not continue the awards banquet and program. After a one-year hiatus, the program has now been revived and expanded with a process for nominating teachers from all local elementary, middle and high schools. Numerous Catonsville businesses and organizations have stepped forward to sponsor the program. The awards event will be held at the Community College of Baltimore County Catonsville Campus (CCBC), on Thursday, May 31, 2012 at 5:30 p.m.
The Rotary Club of Catonsville meets weekly on Tuesdays from 6 to 7 pm for drinks and informal meetings at Dimitris International Grille, and monthly for dinner and a business meeting at Rolling Road Golf Club. Occasional Community Forums are held on topics of general interest to the community. Please call 410-988-7611 for more information, or go to the clubs website at www.catonsvillerotary.org

Catonsville native has escaped death twice while filming sharks
Catonsville native has escaped death twice while filming sharks
Click on link above to see video and the rest of the article.
For a decade beginning in the mid-1980s, Caloyianis and Berger worked on 30 to 40 projects for National Geographic, many of them about sharks.
Caloyianis won an Emmy and an Oscar in 1998 for cinematography in the National Geographic special, "America's Endangered, Don't Say Goodbye." Other Emmys followed. He has supplied underwater video for TV commercials and movies. He and Berger were honored with a CINE Gold Award for the 2000 documentary, "Realm of the Lobster."
Closer to home, Caloyianis and Berger have volunteered their video talents to document a number ofChesapeake Bay improvement projects, including artificial reef construction and oyster habitat restoration.
"There is no other individual who has spent more time beneath the waters of the Chesapeake Bay and documented its marine life," said Martin Gary, a Department of Natural Resources biologist who learned to dive from Caloyianis. "His visuals are a powerful legacy for future generations."
Next year, Caloyianis expects to begin work on a project he's dreamed about for 20 years: A 3-D IMAX film about the Chesapeake Bay.
But for now, he hopes people reflect on the message of "Jaws Comes Home."
"Those white sharks are back, but it's tenuous. We need to learn a lot more about them. The answer is conservation," he says. "The ocean should be for everybody and everything. The sharks belong out there."

Where We Live : Old Catonsville Lovably Eccentric
Where We Live
Old Catonsville: Lovably eccentric
By Laura Barnhardt Cech
Special to The Washington Post
Friday, December 10, 2010; 9:26 AM
If you live in Catonsville, you plunk your lawn chair on the main street to reserve your spot for the Fourth of July parade - weeks ahead of the big day. You are loyal to a snowball stand. And, residents say, you try never to leave.
Where We Live: Old Catonsville: Lovably eccentric
A closer look at the community
The quirks of this Baltimore County college town, including a profusion of music stores, endear it to its residents. And its location close to the Penn Line of the MARC train and Interstate 95, makes it convenient for both D.C. and Baltimore commuters.
For that reason, the community draws many couples who commute in opposite directions.
"A lot of people split the difference and end up here," said Marybeth Graf-Brohawn, an agent with Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in Catonsville and a longtime resident.
"It's thought of as this little place, but it has so much," Graf-Brohawn said. Within its borders, it has the flagship campus of the Community College of Baltimore County and the University of Maryland Baltimore County, where a technology incubator continues to expand. It is also home to the 110-acre retirement community of Charlestown.
There are more than a dozen neighborhoods, including Old Catonsville, an enclave with about 350 houses in the center of the unincorporated town.
In Old Catonsville, and Catonsville in general, the real estate market hasn't been as been beaten up as it has in other communities. "We dropped less and we dropped later," said Meg Christian, Graf-Brohawn's real estate partner.
There weren't as many wild escalations at the height of the market, and there aren't as many foreclosures now.
"It's fairly common for people to move street to street," Christian says. "People don't want to leave."
Dorothy Noble and her husband are among them.
The proximity to Baltimore-Washington International Marshall Airport, Baltimore and the District was ideal for her husband, Dan, a project manager for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. But it also was an easy commute for Noble, an account manager for AEG Environmental in Westminster, Md.
The couple, with three sons, liked the area so much that when they outgrew their first house in Catonsville, they bought an 1890s farmhouse in Old Catonsville.
"We love it here - the quaint 1950s feel of the town," said Noble, who is president of the Old Catonsville Neighborhood Association, which covers all but a few streets in the neighborhood and oversees events including caroling and cleanup days.
Like a lot of Catonsville's neighborhoods, Old Catonsville has a mix of Victorians (several of which have been converted into apartments), Colonials, American foursquares and ranchers).
"There's an incredible range of prices and ages of houses," said Christian, a longtime resident of the area.
In Old Catonsville, for example, four homes listed for sale, ranging from a $120,000 three-bedroom, one-bathroom ranch-style home advertised as a "fixer-upper" to a $327,900 four-bedroom, 31/2-bathroom updated Colonial.
A $489,500 five-bedroom, 21/2-bathroom American foursquare was recently under contract.
The neighborhood is also home to Catonsville's two longtime snowball stands, which are separated by a 7-Eleven and an Italian deli. (You may recognize the icy treat by its other name, snow cone.) Locals are often fiercely partisan about the stands and almost always exclusively patronize one or the other.
"You can go to the ice cream shop on Frederick Road without feeling like you're betraying anyone because they have hand-dipped ice cream," rather than the soft-serve variety served up at the snowball stands, said resident Kayleen Reese, laughing.
A year ago, Reese, a teacher who lives in Catonsville's Summit Park neighborhood, and her husband, Mike,moved four blocks. The family who they bought from moved five blocks away.
The Reeses and their three children enjoy the proximity to Washington and Baltimore and being able to walk to church, school, the library, the post office, restaurants and Patapsco State Park, which is known for its trails and mountain-biking terrain.
"We have the convenience of a city but not that scale," Reese said.
Several new restaurants and coffee shops have opened in the past several years along the main street through town, Frederick Road, which also has so many music stores that Catonsville calls itself "Music City, Maryland."
On Friday nights during the summer, free concerts are held on Frederick Road. On Sundays, musicians perform at an outdoor theater on the grounds of the recently renovated high school.
Performances and fireworks are also staged at Catonsville High School on the Fourth of July. But the big draw is the town's parade.
Weeks before the holiday, residents start putting out their lawn chairs to reserve spots on Frederick Road to watch the parade of marching bands, floats, cars and local celebrities. (Every year, at least one joker puts out a lawn chair on New Year's Day.)
"Some families have been sitting in the same spot every year for decades," said Graf-Brohawn, who along with Christian places thousands of small American flags in yards around town.
"In Catonsville, the Fourth of July is a high holiday," Christian said.
Noble and her husband were initially aghast at the chairs lining Frederick Road when they first moved to Catonsville. "You think, 'Oh, that's tacky.' But after being here, you love the tradition. Now my husband is one of the first ones out there with the chairs."

Explore Baltimore County: Catonsville wakes up and smells the coffee
Explore Baltimore County: Catonsville wakes up and smells the coffee
Downtown Catonsville woke up Friday morning to the smell and sight of thermoses full of organic coffee as Six Mile Coffee enjoyed a quiet opening at 6 a.m. at its new location at 609 Frederick Road.
Inside, a gleaming pastry case was filled with Danish pastries, cinnamon twists, Halloween-themed cupcakes and pies from Sweet, a bakery that owner Chris Sikora owns and runs in nearby Ellicott City.
The coffee shop also offers a menu of sandwiches, soups, salads and bread pizzas made in a high-speed oven.
Sikora estimated that half-dozen customers had trickled in by 9 a.m.
Sikora said the coffee shop will have its grand opening Saturday, featuring a ribbon-cutting ceremony with the Greater Catonsville Chamber of Commerce at 9 a.m.
Located in the former Chesapeake Bank building near Catonsville Elementary School, the coffee shop also includes a drive-through window for commuters.
“It’s super exciting,” said manager Michelle McClelland, who lives just inside the Baltimore City line and can walk to work.
A former Starbucks employee, McClelland moved to the area earlier this year from Lynchburg, Va.
“I much prefer the local thing,” said McClelland, who said that the products at Six Mile Coffee are economically sustainable and as “green” as possible.
“We recycle,” she said. “We do all the stuff that Starbucks doesn’t do.”
Ellicott City resident Kevin Hardy, Sikora’s pastor at Crossroads Church on Rogers Avenue in Ellicott City, stopped in to buy a cup of coffee and an apple Danish.
“I love coffee,” said Hardy, who said that with many of his parishioners living in the area, he would use the business as a meeting place in the future.
The coffee shop’s Wi-Fi makes it a convenient place to have a cup of coffee and surf the Internet, he said.
“It really looks good,” Hardy said. “I think he’s done a great job (of) really making it warm and friendly.”
Six Mile coffee will be open from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. Mondays through Fridays, 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturdays and 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sundays.

Six Mile Coffee
Java junkies have new place to fuel up
'Six Mile Coffee' stirs up competition on Frederick Road
By Alan J. McCombs and Lauren Fulbright
lfulbright@patuxent.com
It's full steam ahead for Chris Sikora as he prepares for the grand opening of Six Mile Coffee on Frederick Road on Saturday, Oct. 30. Sikora, who also owns a bakery in Ellicott City, says the new coffee shop will feature some bakery items and sandwiches, but "coffee is going to be our main business." The business has already been a regular vendor at the Catonsville Farmers Market. (Staff photo by Kitty Charlton)
Something new is brewing on Catonsville's main thoroughfare.
Six Mile Coffee is scheduled to open this week in the former Chesapeake Bank Building at 609 Frederick Road.
"We think it's a great location for a coffee shop," store owner Chris Sikora said. "It has parking. It's off the Beltway so people can pick up their coffee on their way to work."
Last week, power tools and boxes still covered the floor of the new business, which is near Catonsville Elementary School.
But Sikora said the coffee shop will be ready for its Saturday, Oct. 30 grand opening, with the possibility of a soft opening before then.
Though Six Mile Coffee will join nearby competitors such as Dunkin' Donuts and Friendly's that offer patrons a cuppa joe, Sikora is confident the business will set itself apart.
"Coffee is going to be our main business, as opposed to other places that do other things and sell coffee," he said.
While the store has yet to open, Six Mile Coffee has already been making an impression in Catonsville.
The business has been a regular at the Sunday farmers' market near Friendly's in the 700 block of Frederick Road.
At the store's tent Aug. 22, customers could buy a hot coffee for $1.50 and an iced coffee for $2.
The hot coffee appealed to one self-described coffee addict, Catherine Holden of Halethorpe.
"It's a smooth coffee, not very heavy, not bitter," said the history and social studies teacher at Franklin High School, in Reisterstown. "It's just good coffee, simple and to the point and what you need at 6 a.m."
For her friend and fellow educator at Franklin High, Lisa Siegfried, Six Mile Coffee seemed like a place she could see herself frequenting on her way to work.
"I like to patronize small businesses," she said.
Six Mile Coffee is named for the nearby marker that notes the distance on the road to the port of Baltimore.
"Plus, I figured every cute name for a coffee shop ... has already been taken," Sikora said.
The new business isn't the first for Sikora. He owns and operates Sweet, a bakery in Ellicott City, where he lives with his wife and two daughters.
After looking at the property for about a year, Sikora opted to open the coffee shop in Catonsville because of his familiarity with the town, he said.
"I've always liked Catonsville, the community spirit," he said. "People take a lot of pride in locally owned business and their town, and we wanted to be part of it."
The operating hours are planned for 6 a.m. to around 8 or 10 p.m. daily, with closing time depending on demand.
In addition to its regular blend of fair-trade and organic coffee, the coffee shop will offer a selection of bakery items like muffins, scones, pies and cakes from Sweet. There will also be a selection of sandwiches, salads and bread pizza made in a high-speed oven, Sikora said.
Inside, the store will offer free wireless Internet access that Sikora hopes will transform it into a meeting place both for area residents and college students, Sikora said.
The bank's former drive-through window will also find a new use: serving coffee-craving drivers on their morning commute, he said.

The Friends of the Catonsville Library will host “Words & Wine” on Friday, October 22, 2010, from 7-9 p.m. at the Catonsville Library, 1100 Frederick Road, Catonsville, Maryland 21228. Tickets are $25 and available at the Catonsville Library or at the door. This year’s proceeds will be used to conserve historic documents in the Catonsville Room, and also to support Catonsville High School’s literary magazine, Ellipsis.
More than 15 authors from the area will share their work and have books available for sale and signing. Authors include: Steve Luxenberg, Pulitzer Prize-winning Washington Post journalist, author of Annie’s Ghost; Michael Collier, former Poet Laureate for Maryland; Rafael Alvarez, Jane Byers, Maud Casey, Louis Diggs, Kate Dolan, Dan Fesperman, Tom Flynn, Antero Pietila, John Rowell, Deborah Rudacille, David Shackelford, Suzanne Supplee, Joe Swope, Meg Tipper, Laura Wexler, Marsha Wight Wise.
In Luxenberg’s much-lauded Annie’s Ghost, the author explores the discovery that his mother, who claimed to be an only child, had a sister in an asylum. Topics other authors have tackled include a journey into the land of grief following the sudden death of a daughter; a teenager’s quest to follow her Nashville dream to become a singer; suspenseful tales of intrigue set in some of the world’s most volatile locales, to name a few. In keeping with Catonsville’s Bicentennial Celebration, some writers’ works reflect the area’s storied past.
Sponsors include The Wine Bin, SugarBakers Cakes, Sweet a Bakery & Café and Wegman’s.
Since 1962, the Friends’ mission has been to support and enhance the Catonsville library, including maintaining and promoting the Catonsville Historical Room. The Friends of the Catonsville Library is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization; donations are tax-deductible.
Don't miss the social event of the season at the library Friday night! It's a great way to invest in our library, meet interesting authors and make new friends! Hope to see you there! Thanks for sharing this press release . . . . . Maggie

Gardens of Catonsville
Although I know everyone needs to appreciate beauty....found in art and gardens , also folks are saying the gardeners' stories are inspiring and informative... so the gift of "Gardens of Catonsville" is filling the bill ! Remember that this project is a community contribution to those less fortunate....so my theme is: This is a gift that keeps giving."

Table Talk: Grilled Cheese & Co. opens in Catonsville
By Richard Gorelick Special to The Baltimore Sun
April 7, 2010
When some kids grow up, they don't play school or play house — instead, they play fast-casual restaurant franchise concept.It's a fun game, and you can play it while you're driving in traffic or out on the golf course, which is where Matthew Lancelotta and Victor Corbi worked out the concept that developed into Grilled Cheese & Co. (500 Edmonson Ave., 410-747-2610, ilovegrilledcheese.com), which opened Monday in Catonsville. Their simple driving idea (no pun intended) is that grilled cheese makes people happy.Lancelotta and Corbi brought in Matthew's brother, James Lancelotta, a chef who has worked in Baltimore at Della Notte, at Mango's in Bethany Beach, Del., and, more recently at a dude ranch in Colorado. The opening menu features, naturally, a signature grilled cheese sandwich, but according to James Lancelotta, the other eight or so panini-press sandwiches will feature much more hot, melted cheese than other places put on them.The emphasis here, as at successful fast-casual places like Panera and Chipotle, is on freshness and quality. But I think it would be a mistake to come expecting a gourmet or "foodie" experience. The primary audience for Grilled Cheese and Co. is families.Last week, James Lancelotta was less interested in talking about the expansion plans for Grilled Cheese and Co. than in just getting the first one open. Sandwich prices range from $4.50 to $7.50, and the menu's sandwiches and soups are similarly priced. (Yes, there is a tomato soup.)Grilled Cheese and Co. is open seven days a week for lunch and dinner.

Free Clinic April 8th At Bill's Music Featuring Gary Hoey
Bill's Music is proud to invite you to a Free live music clinic on Thursday, April 8th 2010 at 7pm with Gary Hoey! Guests will enjoy Free Give Aways! Live Music! as well as an Informational Clinic and a Question and Answer session with Gary Hoey of Fender® Musical Instruments.
Hoey will introduce you to Fender's American Special guitar series- everything you want in an affordable U.S.-made guitar. He will also demonstrate the new Fender G-DEC® 30 guitar amplifier- like no other guitar amp you've ever experienced!
Hoey will explain to attendees how to get better tone onstage and in the studio. He'll also offer technique-improving exercises and discuss the Fender products he uses as a professional musician. Further, he will perform songs from his extensive catalog and answer questions from guests.
Gary Hoey Biography
World renowned rock guitarist Gary Hoey takes his singer/songwriter talents to the next level with his new album, "Utopia", to be released Spring 2010. With a collection of 16 albums and five top-20 Billboard hits, it's no wonder Gary Hoey is listed as one of the top 100 guitarists of all time. Whether it's rock, blues, surf or Christmas, Hoey's command of each style makes his live show one of the most exciting on the circuit today.
Multi-tasking as a writer, producer and guitar player, Hoey has had clients who include Disney, ESPN, No Fear, performed the National Anthem for the New England Patriots, San Diego Padres and the Boston Red Sox. Likewise, Gary was recently featured on VH1 Classic's documentary, "Aftermath", a VH1 original one-hour concert special in conjunction with the Musicians United, which raised money to benefit the victims of the Station NightClub Fire in Rhode Island in 2003.
In 1993 Gary Hoey launched his career with the hit song "Hocus Pocus" (Warner Bros. Records). His fiery technique helped to send it to the top 5 on Billboard's charts. The Boston raised guitarist followed up with the soundtrack to the surf saga, Endless Summer, II (Warner/Reprise).
His popular "Ho Ho Hoey" series of Christmas CDs and on-air station visits during the holiday season have become an annual staple at hundreds of radio stations nationwide.
In addition to touring extensively as a headline act, Hoey has toured and traded licks with the likes of Brian May of Queen, Ted Nugent, Foreigner, Joe Satriani, The Doobie Brothers, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Eric Johnson, Steve Vai, Peter Frampton, Rick Derringer and Deep Purple. More information can be found at www.garyhoey.com.
