Mike Lewis Endorses Matt Maciarello

Press Release

Sheriff Michael A. Lewis Endorsement

Matt Maciarello for

State’s Attorney

October 15, 2010

It is with great pleasure that I announce my full endorsement of Matt Maciarello in his candidacy for State’s Attorney for Wicomico County. I’ve come to know Matt well over the past several months, and I’m impressed with his dedication, his strong desire and his relentless determination to serve the citizens of Wicomico County.  As a twenty-six year veteran of law enforcement, and as Sheriff of Wicomico County, I believe Matt Maciarello possesses the necessary skills to lead the Office of State’s Attorney, to effectively manage his resources, including personnel, and to become a very good trial attorney.

I have no doubt that Matt will continue to forge very close working relationships with all of the law enforcement agencies within Wicomico County. In truth, he has already promoted cooperation between agencies in different areas, including community policing.  His honesty, his integrity and his hard work ethic are admirable traits worthy of recognition, and certainly making him a most desirable candidate.

Without a doubt, Matt Maciarello has my unequivocal support in his bid to become the next State’s Attorney for Wicomico County.

Michael A. Lewis

Sheriff

Wicomico County

Editor's note: I want to send my congratulations to Matt on this endorsement.

Block party at the Princeton Avenue Service Center,

Salisbury Fire Department To Participate In

Princeton Avenue Block Party

The Salisbury Fire Department will be participating in a block party at the Princeton Avenue Service Center, Saturday, October 16^th, from 10am-12pm.  The block party is being sponsored by Allen Memorial Baptist Church.  In conjunction with our recent Fire Prevention Week 2010 campaign, the Salisbury Fire Department will be handing out free smoke alarms and batteries to those in need, as long as supplies last. 

Pastor Bruce Glisson, Pastor of Outreach at Allen Memorial Baptist Church, says, “I have assisted families who have been devastated by fires.  I have seen what a difference a smoke alarm can make.”

Approximately 65% of reported home fire deaths occur in homes with no smoke alarms at all or no functioning smoke alarms.  Having a working smoke alarm cuts the chances of dying in a fire in half.  The Salisbury Fire Department urges every  home to have at least one working smoke alarm.  Make sure your smoke alarm has working batteries by testing it at least once a month.   

The Princeton Avenue Block Party is a free, family oriented event.  The Princeton Avenue Service Center is located at 117 Princeton Avenue, Salisbury. 

Delmarvacade Tomorrow!!

Lights. Music. Marching. One of the most exciting and uplifting nights of the marching band season is coming up Saturday, Oct. 16, when Parkside High School and the Parkside Band Boosters present the 2010 Delmarvacade of Bands at Wicomico County Stadium.

High school marching bands from throughout the region will fill Wicomico County Stadium that night with the exciting sights and sounds of their field show as bands tune up for the impending championship events.

Between bands, parents, and spectators, the Delmarvacade is expected to draw thousands of people to the stadium. Bands will compete starting at 6:30 p.m., with each band performing the kind of field show people are accustomed to seeing at halftime of football games. Each performance will last seven to 12 minutes, and a new band will take the field about every 15 minutes.

The event is sponsored by Parkside High School and its Band Boosters. It will be adjudicated by professional judges of the National Judges Association. Bands will be judged on every aspect of their field show, including both musical and visual elements, individual and group elements, as well as the overall general effect of the show. Each band will receive a score based on a 100-point scale, and a trophy.

Bands will compete in four categories, depending on the number of instrumentalists in the band. Parkside High and Wicomico High School are in Group 2 although Parkside, as host, will perform in exhibition. James M. Bennett High is in Group 3. There will be an awards ceremony at the end of the night.

Marching bands often stay all evening, even after they have competed. "They support each other, even though they are rivals," says Gary Beauchamp, supervisor of fine and performing arts for Wicomico schools and the founder of the event in 1977. Students know they are competing not just against each other, but against their own previous performances, trying to make this one just a little bit better.

Admission to Delmarvacade of Bands is $5. A program detailing the participants, with a score sheet to keep track of how the bands are doing, is $5. The Parkside Band Boosters will donate $1 from each program sold to Women Supporting Women of Salisbury.
