Baugher’s Red Cross Hurricane Relief Oct 26, 2004



Baugher’s Restaurant in Westminster and Caroline Babylon raise money for Red Cross Hurricane relief

On October 26, 2004 Caroline Babylon teamed-up with Baugher’s restaurant and John Jordan, then the Baugher's manager, to raise money for the Red Cross for hurricane relief. My wife is awesome. Just saying.

“Recently Baugher's Restaurant in Westminster helped raise money for American Red Cross Hurricane Disaster relief. Pictured above are Baugher's Manager John Jordan giving American Red Cross DAT Member Caroline Babylon the generous donations collected by the restaurant. These contributions will help those whose lives were devastated by the recent Florida hurricanes. Picture Date: October 26th, 2004”

I donated blood today at the blood drive at Grace Lutheran Church


Overnight, Carroll County had a relatively rare late March snow...

By mid-afternoon on Monday the streets in Westminster had had been cleared for hours and traffic seemed to be moving easily.

Earlier in the day I had interviewed the Westminster Street Superintendent Larry Bloom and Westminster Police Chief Jeff Spaulding and both had said that there were little, if no traffic problems in Westminster as a result of the snow… http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/carroll/news/community/bal-early-spring-snow-carroll-20130325,0,2188928.story

So after lunch I went over to Grace Lutheran Church and donated blood at our church’s regularly scheduled blood drives.

Another reason to not mow the yard


Reasons to not mow the yard ...


Mower sparks fire that destroys house [multimedia] By Gina Gallucci-White News-Post Staff Originally published in the Frederick News-Post April 30, 2009

Combustible materials left too close to a warm yard tractor ignited and caused a fire that destroyed a house Wednesday afternoon, according to the Division of Fire and Rescue Services.

Deputy Fire Marshal Ed Ruck estimated damage to the house at 5702 Catoctin View Court and its contents at $400,000.

[…]

The house had to be evacuated twice because the fire compromised the structure and the floor was starting to collapse, Ruck said. Several tankers had to be called because there are no hydrants in the area.

Members of the American Red Cross were called to the scene to assist the residents, he said.

[…]

Read the entire article here Mower sparks fire that destroys house [multimedia] – and then join me in advocating that the Maryland General Assembly outlaw mowing the yard.

Carroll County Times letter to the editor: Disaster can strike at any time by Joseph Ensor, Finksburg

Carroll County Times letter to the editor: Disaster can strike at any time by Joseph Ensor, Finksburg

September 7, 2008

Carroll County Times Editor:

Disaster can strike at any time. It can come in the form of a house fire in the middle of the night, a loved one who suffers a heart attack or a power outage that leaves a family in the cold. In just the past two months, Carroll County Red Cross volunteers have responded to seven fires, bringing aid to those who were put out of their homes. While we can't control what happens, we can control how we prepare for and respond to emergencies.

September is National Preparedness Month, and the American Red Cross of Central Maryland wants Carroll County residents to take steps to be Red Cross Ready. The best part is it's easy to do.

Make a disaster preparedness kit with a few basic supplies in case you have to evacuate your home for up to three days. Next, make a plan about where to meet your family in the event that phone and other communication lines are down. Also, be informed about the types of disasters that can strike where you live, including home fires, terrorism and severe weather. Finally, get trained in First Aid and CPR.

If you've been putting off getting prepared, now is the time to do something about it. We've even created a free online education module at the Get Prepared section of our Web site www.red
cross-cmd.org, to help you out. Together, we can make Carroll County a safer place to live, work and play.

Joseph Ensor, Finksburg

The writer is the chairman of the Carroll County District of American Red Cross of Central Maryland.
