Just Us St. Marys New Outdoor Adventure Program Softball Still Undefeated
By Andrew Knowlton Staff Writer Summer just got a lot more exciting for outdoor enthusiasts as the Greenwell Foundation now offers a free program called the Outdoor Adventure Group that meets twice every week at Greenwell State Park in Hollywood. The new program, which had its very first session June 19, offers a wide array of outdoor activities for able-bodied and disabled people, according to Ellyn Mary Farrar, Director of Community By Andrew Knowlton Staff Writer With a 16-10 win over the Rookies Monday night at Chancellors Run Park, the Just Us Softball team improved to 10-0 in the St. Marys County Womens Softball League. The Rookies took a 2-0 lead early in the game as Just Us struggled to get their bats going, hitting into three pop ups in the first and going three up, three down in the second.

Bayrunners Fair Well at State Tourney

By Andrew Knowlton Staff Writer Although the St. Marys Bayrunners were the youngest team in the A Bracket of last weekends State Tournament, they still managed a strong showing, winning two games and losing two at Rockburn Branch Park in Elkridge. With eight eight-year olds and seven seven year-olds, the Bayrunners of the St. Marys Babe Ruth Baseball League were able to hang with the best 8 and Under teams in the state. The Bayrunners struggled in their first game against the Upper Montgomery Athletic Club (UMAC), the team that eventually went on to win the division and was the only team out of ten in the bracket to advance. UMAC was playing in their 10th tournament of the season and had a team comprised entirely of eight-year olds. Our kids seemed a little nervous and had a quick

The Great Debate: Wood vs. Metal

By Andrew Knowlton Staff Writer In the 1970s, bats made out of metal were introduced in baseball and softball. Metal bats were originally used because of their affordability. Today, its their durability that is the main advantage, as some metal bats can go for almost $ 300. But for hitters, its more about power than durability. Metal bats are hollow and the barrel of the bat can be wider, giving the hitter more power. But how much power is too much power? Metal bats have been blamed for serious injuries and even the death of a youth league baseball player in Montana. In St. Marys County, some softball leagues have switched to wood for safety reasons, but in many leagues, where players can choose between wood or metal, the bat of choice always seems to make that clink sound, while the crack of the wooden bat is nowhere to be heard. The wood vs. metal issue for players is a classic case of Catch 22, according to Cory Hayden, a former pitcher on the St. Marys Ryken baseball team who has experience playing with both wooden and metal bats. Its hard to say which is better, he said. When youre in the field, youd much rather have the other team hitting with wood so the ball wont come at you as fast and its easier to field, but when youre at bat, you obviously want to hit as hard or as far as you can and its easier to do that with a metal bat. In Maryland high school baseball and in little league, it is up to the batter whether they want to use See Bat Issue page B-3

wake up call, said Bayrunner manager Bill Wood. The Bayrunners lost their first game 18-3, but showed signs of improvement as the game went on, according to Wood. One good sign out of this game was that our hitting seemed to get better as the game progressed, Wood said. The second game came with more success for the Bayrunners, as they piled up seven runs in the first inning against Glade Valley. Seven consecutive batters reached first base and eventually scored. St. Marys added eight more runs before the game was over and won by a final of 15-3. Ten different Bayrunners scored in the game. They were led by Ryan Kennedy, who had three hits, including a double and a three run homerun in the third inning. Jake Wood also had a strong performance, scoring three runs for the Bayrunners.

Outdoor Adventure Program
Continued from page B-1 tivities at Greenwell is for people to have fun at the park and enjoy its resources. So we dont have a strict schedule. Its more like come on out, well throw around a Frisbee, go for a walk on the beach, have some pizza Its not a regimented thing. We may do some kayaking, beachcombing, maybe some archery down the line. The Outdoor Adventure Group, which is funded by United Way, welcomes anyone between the ages of 17-25. According to Farrar, this makes it the only group around that caters to that specific age group. Young adults can participate in many different programs while they are in school, but as soon as school ends, these programs are often no longer available to them. The Outdoor Adventure Program provides a continuum for these young adults, according to Farrar. Greenwell State Park, which is located along the lower Patuxent River, includes 650 acres of land, two miles of public access shoreline, 10 miles of trails. There are other programs at Greenwell, including an equestrian program and Camp Greenwell for children. Farrar says many people dont know about Greenwell State Park or know that it is fully accessible to anyone with disabilities, so one of the main focuses of the group is to use the park as a resource. This program is more of an opportunity to explore, for example, if we go on a nature walk, we might bring binoculars and look for blue herons or snakes or other wildlife, Farrar said. Our overall goal is not one of strict education but more of enjoyment of the park and its resources. Another important focus of the group is in building friendships. We meet here, we introduce ourselves and get to know each other, Farrar said. We have what we call an icebreaker activity. Tonight for example, were going to pick an object out of a bag and share with the group what that object means to them and how they can relate it to their lives. From there, the group heads out for the days activity, which can include movies, barbeques, kayaking, fishing, hiking, beachcombing or games. The idea is not so much to have a camp setting, but for them to get to know each other, and our hope is that

after a while they will decide and determine what activities they want to do, Farrar said. Farrar leads each session along with three volunteers from the Maryland Conservation Corp. We have a good volunteer base for the foundation in general. They are helpful in a lot of way in the park, not just this program, she said. Though the group is taking time to grow, Farrar would like to see a core group of at least a dozen young adults and would be happy to accommodate more if more came, she said. If the program meets with a certain amount of success, were perhaps looking

into having an adult group that would provide the same opportunities. So it may be in the works to start an adult program sometime in the future, Farrar said. The Outdoor Adventure Group meets Tuesdays from 5:30 p.m. 7:30 p.m. and on Sundays from 1 p.m. 4 p.m. We hope people will come out and take advantage of what we have to offer, Farrar said. We hope friendships build. For more information, call 301-373-9775. An RSVP up to the day before each event is requested.

In the Knowl
I Love My BYcycle
By Andrew Knowlton Staff Writer Im peddling as fast as I possibly can. My legs are burning. Its pitch dark. I can barely see the road in front of me. The shoulder is about three feet wide. On one side, the rumble strip; on the other, a ditch. A friendly motorist flies by and flicks a burning cigarette at me. This is when I finally ask myself: Why am I doing this? Well, the idea was to bike (no, not a motorcycle, a real bicycle) to the beach (Ocean City) from Washington D.C., but as I biked down Route 90 at 9:30 p.m., I realized I was just peddling for my life and dignity. If I gave up, I risked: a) getting hit by a car, b) riding right into a ditch, or even worse, c) getting mocked by my three best friends for not being able to finish. My friends and I have a knack for attempting ridiculously hard physical challenges with as little training as possible. If you are an adamant reader of this marvelously insightful column, you might remember the time I biked 184 miles on the C&O Canal (from Cumberland, Maryland to Washington, D.C. without any training. That was a three-day trip in early May, and between that weekend and this past weekend, I hadnt touched my bike once. So last week, my buddies Landy, Johnny and Francis came to me with a proposition Wanna bike 150 miles from D.C. to Ocean City in one day? It was almost a trick question. If I say yes, I know its not going to be easy. Like I said, I hadnt touched my bike once since May. If I say no, not only will they make fun of me, but theyll brag about how they biked to the beach in one day without me, and thats definitely more painful than any 150 mile bike ride. To make a long story short, I said yes. We got up at 4:50 a.m. Friday and hopped on the Metro to Greenbelt, where we started the ride. After a long ride on the subway, we saddled up and began peddling down back roads. Smart people would probably ride road bikes. We opted to ride cheap Target brand mountain bikes. For the first 40 miles of our trip, we followed a detailed route that took us on safe roads away from traffic. The first 40 miles of the trip were very different from the 110 that followed. The first 40 miles were pretty hilly and pretty tiring, but that wasnt the biggest difference. The biggest difference was in our attitude. In the beginning, we were so excited. We kept singing: Were biking to da beach!!! Later in the bike ride, we were panting: I just feel so empty After the first 40 miles, we arrived at the Bay Bridge. Since biking on the Bay Bridge is illegal, we got a shuttle, which cost us 30 bucks each. If you ever decide to bike to the beach, I recommend finding a cheaper way across the Chesapeake Bay (swim, kayak, paddle boat). After shuttling across the bridge and taking a quick lunch break, we go back on our route, but this didnt last too long. We had what Ill call a navigational malfunction. The best thing to do when you have a navigational malfunction is not to ask for directions, of course, but to find something you recognize and work with that. In our case, it was Route 50. We got on it and didnt look back. Johnny threw away our directions and said: Where were going, we dont need back roads. For the next 95 miles or so, we biked the shoulder on 50, stopping occasionally for snacks and drinks to keep ourselves energized. But even a stop at every WaWa between D.C. and Ocean City was not enough to keep me energized for 150 miles of peddling. I felt fine for the first 90-100 miles of the bike ride. After that, I couldnt seem to stay fueled. I started craving random food like Popeyes chicken and fresh peaches (I never got either). It was between Cambridge and Salisbury that I started to bonk/hit the wall, and we still had 30 miles to go. What happens when youve bonked and still have 30 miles to go? Lets just say youre not in the best of moods. You become a bit delirious. When we finally got to Route 90 (which is also illegal for bikers to ride on), I was under the impression we were only 5 minutes from Johnnys beach house (our final destination), but it was actually 5 miles. Lets just say I wasnt too pleased, but I wasnt about to stop there. We all made it out alive and we were pretty darn proud of ourselves. So proud, in fact, that we decided to walk the boardwalk the next day wearing shirts we made that said I Biked To Da Beach From DC and underneath it: I Love My Bycycle. Yep, thats bicycle with a y. We were still a little delirious the next day. Now that its all over, it was well worth it. My friends cant brag all day without me. Im gonna go buy a peach now. resiliency coming back to score three in the second inning and six in the third inning to take a 9-4 lead after three innings, said Wood. The Bayrunners scored two more in the fourth and five in the fifth to make it a 16-6 final. With the win, St. Marys was able to go home on a winning note. The tournament gave the young Bayrunner squad an opportunity to compete at a higher level and according to Wood, his team rose to the occasion. Every Bayrunner reached base over the four games and 14 of them scored at least one run. All the players received medals after the final game, which was played on the same field that the St. Marys 11-year old team won the State Tournament in 2004.

Just Us Undefeated
Continued from page B- the Rookies added two more runs to their lead. But Just Us finally heated up offensively, as they came back to tie the game. According to Just Us Coach Lamont Saxon, it was just a matter of getting used to a new pitcher. We just got finished playing a game so we had a different pitcher in that game, Saxon said. It took them an inning for everybody to get around to the new pitcher but after that they made their own adjustments and came out hitting the ball. With two on and two outs, Aggie Lloyd knocked in Just Us first run with a single to left. Then, Gail Maddox and Fanta Gray hit back-to-back RBI singles, making it a 4-3 game. The next batter, Yola Llyles, knocked in the tying run with a sacrifice fly. The Rookies took their lead back in the top of the fourth, hitting a two out single followed by an RBI triple in the left field gap. Down by one run, Just Us recorded it biggest inning of the game, scoring 11 runs and batting around the lineup. Robin Pettit jumpstarted the inning for Just Us as she blasted a triple to deep center. Deevie Yates then hit back-toback singles that helped Just Us take the lead once and for all. With one out and the bases loaded, Lloyd hit a single off the Rookie pitchers glove and drove in two more. Seven of the next nine hitters reached first safely and drove in runs as Just Us took a commanding 15-5 lead. The Rookies managed one run on two hits in the top of the fifth, but the Just Us defense didnt allow them to cut into their lead much more. We got a real good defensive team, said Saxon. So sometimes the defense will gener-

ate the offense. In the bottom of the fifth, Sonia Johnson scored for Just Us on a single to right field by Llyles. Johnson got on base with a single to the opposite field. Just Us defense stepped up again in the top of the sixth. After giving up a leadoff triple, Just Us forced a pop up and two ground outs to get out of the inning with just one run scored against them. inches long, it has to way 29 ounces or less). But these restrictions arent enough to slow the ball down enough to make metal bats safe. According to studies, a baseball bounces off a metal bat at close to four miles per hour faster than a wooden bat. Also, a metal bats hollow inside gives it a bigger sweet spot, making it easier for batters to get hits. Back when leagues started, people didnt hit homeruns, said St. Marys County Commissioner Kenny Dement, who is also known Mr. Softball. Now, anybody can hit a homerun, it doesnt matter how big they are. Now, theres no limit. Dement, who started the Slow Pitch League in St. Marys County in 1966, says beefed up metal bats have taken the fun out of softball. Because new and improved bats are more and more expensive each year, it becomes harder for sponsors to put forth the necessary funds. Back in the original days, there was a lot of fan participation, said Dement. But now there are fewer teams in the leagues than there used to be because

In the seventh, the Rookies made a worthy attempt to come back from a 16-6 deficit, as they piled on four more runs on five hits, including a double and a triple, but the damage had already been done and Just Us escaped with their 10th win of the season and a perfect record. It was a team effort today, said Saxon. We were down and the whole team brought each other back and it becomes too expensive. Everyone has to have their own bat and sponsors dont want to pay for all of that. In leagues such as the Over 40 Mens Softball League in St. Marys County, which uses only wooden bats, power hitters struggle to send the ball over the fence the way they did with metal bats, according to Warren Guy, Manager of Tri County Aire, a team in that league. Some of the guys who are used to hitting the ball a long way have struggled with it a bit, he said. Fans of metal bats might also argue that not only do metal bats make the ball fly farther, but they also dont break. Wooden bats can cost from $50 - $100 and a player might need three or four to get through a season, according to Jameson. Metal bats, which dont break, can go for up to $300. But where the wooden bat is a disadvantage (the ball doesnt travel as far/it can break easily), it is also a big advantage (it is much safer). Players in the Over 40 Mens Softball League in St. Marys County prefer using

helped each other come back. It wasnt an individual effort. With about 10 more games to play, Just Us will focus on playing the way they have and not think too much about their record, according to Saxon. Were just going to take it one game at a time, he said.

Bat Issue
Continued from page B- wood or metal, but according to Tommy Jameson, coach of the Indians Little League team in St. Marys County, players always choose metal over wood. Many players and coaches, including Jameson, believe that metal bats are not a safety issue until a player reaches the high school or collegiate level. With the size of the players these days at [the high school and college] level, it would not only be safer, but it would prepare them for the next level, said little league coach Bill Wood. Once players reach the high school and college level, however, the metal bats become more of a threat, especially for third basemen and pitchers, who are closest to home plate. In high school, there are regulations on metal bats, including the minus 3 rule, which states that the bats weight in ounces has to be three less than the number of inches in length of the bat (for example, if the bat is 32

wood. It makes for a much better game, said Roger Vanderwest, who also competes in the St. Marys Church League, which uses metal bats. It becomes more of a defensive game. The team that makes fewer errors wins. When playing with a wooden bat, a corked ball -- as opposed to a plastic ball -- is used to avoid breaking bats. According to Vanderwest, the difference between wood and metal is clearly apparent. Theres a huge difference in the velocity of the ball, he said. If you have loaded balls with loaded bats, people get hurt. When you get older, your reaction time is slower. Guy said the switch to wood in the Over 40 League was made in February after eight of 10 managers voted to stop using metal. The majority of teams were concerned about how good metal bats had become and were concerned about how fast the ball was going through the infield, Guy said. Since the switch, Guy has received positive feedback. The scores are closer and theres more of an emphasis on catching and throwing. It puts more pressure on the batter because he really has to concentrate. According to Hayden, the same things can be accomplished with wooden bats; its just a matter of making perfect contact with the ball. Wooden bats can do the same thing, he said. You just have to hit the ball on the perfect spot of the bat and thats harder to do. For now, the Maryland and D.C. area will continue to use metal bats in high school. What is your opinion? Should metal bats be banned altogether or do they make the game more exciting? Email Andrew Knowlton with your comments at andrewknowlton@countytimes.net to share your thoughts.

State Tourney
Continued from page B- The following day, the Bayrunners returned to action against Severn in a game that decided which team would advance to the semifinals. St. Marys took a 4-3 lead after two innings and added another in the top of the third, but Severn countered with five runs in the bottom half of the inning to take an 8-3 lead before going on to win 8-5. The Bayrunners played one last game in the tournament on Sunday against Northeast from Carroll County. After falling behind 2-0 in the first, St. Marys bounced back. The team showed great

A big ball of fire, yelled Kristen Shields, 15, describing a strike of lightning just yards away from where she was standing. The bolt struck the ground on June 12, searing the bark off of several trees and igniting a fire in the underbrush next to the home of Robin and June Shaffer of Tall Timbers. The Shaffers were not at home during these events. On the other side of the strike, Austin Fagan, 13, noticed a kindling fire. The pressure on my chest was tremendous, Fagan said. It felt like someone pushing on me. It was scary. Fagan immediately alerted Christina Hane, the mother of his friend Matthew, 13. Matthew, his brother Phillip, 9, and his sister Megan, 10, joined their mother and Austin in fighting the fire with hoses and squirt guns. The fire grew just 10-feet from

Shaffers house, and 15-feet from the underground propane storage tank. But the amateur crew fought the fire, and when the Valley Lee 2nd district volunteer fire department arrived at the house several minutes later, the fire was contained and mostly extinguished. The Shaffers later honored the actions of those involved with a ceremony at the 2nd District Volunteer Fire and Rescue Squad. They handed out awards to the children whose quick actions may have saved their home. One of the childrens parents attributed the quick thinking and appropriate reaction to the fire prevention assemblies held each year in the St. Marys County public Schools.

Monterey Mexican Restaurant
Conveniently located in the San Souci Plaza in California, this Mexican restaurant is locally famous for its delicious, authentic plates. To the left is Rafael Moncada, skillfully balancing five entrees on one arm. These entrees consist of burritos, hard tacos, soft tacos, rice and beans; common orders for the kitchen. So what makes these dishes so healthy and irresistible? That answer lies with the cooks behind the scenes, but traditional ingredients and spices are what attract so many people to this restaurant. Mexican entrees have just about everything we need to keep our bodies in good shape, inside and out; beef and poultry, which are packed with protein; flour tortillas and rice, which consists of essential carbohydrates; cheese, which is loaded with calcium; and beans, which give us a healthy amount of needed fiber. Here is a recipe for chicken fajitas (a popular dish at Monterey) from gourmetslueth.com that you can follow to make a beneficial, quick and satisfying Mexican treat: Ingredients:1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1/2 cup lime juice, 1 cup tequila, 1/4 cup tomato paste, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 whole jalapeno pepper, 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. chile powder, 1/2 tsp. cumin, 1 1/2 lb chick-

A butterfly garden is an easy way to see more butterflies and contribute towards their conservation. Its easy to increase the population of butterflies in your garden by using plants that caterpillars and the adult butterfly feed on. Caterpillars like to eat such plants as parsley, fennel, mustard, hollyhock, sunflower, mallow and ornamental grasses. To attract the adult Butterfly use plants such as Coneflower, Black-eyed Susan, Verbena, Veronica, Beebalm, Milkweed, Butterfly Bush and Coreopsis. Planning to attract both stages of the butterfly can be fun and will enhance the beauty of your garden.

Chicken Piccata with angel hair ingredients: 4 chicken cutlets, 2 tsp. vegetable oil, cup white wine, 1 tsp. minced garlic, 2 tbsp. fresh lemon juice, 1 tbsp. capers, cup chicken stock, 2 tbsp. butter, and 6 lemon slices.

CRITTER CORNER
Pregnant Woman Can Keep Their Cats
Many female cat owners who become pregnant give up their cats on their doctors advice for fear of contracting toxoplasmosis, a disease that can cause serious birth defects. Truthfully, toxoplasmosis is a rare disease in this country. While the diseasecausing parasite can be found in the feces of cats that ingest raw meat, birds, mice or contaminated soil, it is more commonly found in uncooked or undercooked meat. Both the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) advise that it is not necessary for pregnant women to give up their cats. The HSUS has sent brochures to 31,000 obstetricians and gynecologists to help them and their patients understand toxoplasmosis, and that pregnant women can keep their cats. Avoiding the disease is simple. If possible, a pregnant woman should have someone else clean the litter box. If she must clean the box, she should wear rubber gloves and then thoroughly wash her hands when done. Feces should be scooped as soon as possible, and at least daily, since it takes one to five days for feces to become infectious. Cats should be kept indoors and should be fed commercially prepared cat food. The Tri-County Animal Shelter wants you to know that, with a little planning, your cat can stay with your family for a lifetime. If youd like more information on toxoplasmosis, you can check out the CDCs web site at www.cdc.gov, or The HSUS web site at www.hsus.org.
