2008 Neeld Estates Old World Style
Octoberfest Dinner

Thanks to EVERYONE that helped to make this years 
Octoberfest a HUGE SUCCESS!

Hurricane Isabel Party 
'Lots of Thank-You's'
Thanks to Patricia Press for taking the fish fry idea and making it work.  
It was a pleasure working with her on the combined Hurricane/Fish Fry party.

Thanks to the great planning committee that included Patricia, Charlotte Zajak, 
Sheri Ackerman and Betsy Detwiler.  We couldn't have served up such delectable 
fish without all of Charlotte's hard work preparing the fish and frying it - 
with help from Patricia and Charlotte’s family/friends. Charlotte was in her 
element!   Sheri's handling of all things money related and Betsy taking care of the 
chicken made it all come together.  And we can’t forget all the hard work that 
Ellie Dotson (Jerry’s daughter) put into setting the tables and hand writing all 
of the 50/50 raffle tickets.
Music provided by Brenda Moore was the icing on the cake.
Thanks to everyone who made this happen and into such a success. 
Almost $200 will be donated to the Calvert County Red Cross. 
We hope to never need a hurricane "anniversary' party again.  Next year it's a 
Fish Fry (Patricia willing) and a hurricane drink in thanks for missing another one. 

To paraphrase two lessons learned from Joe’s speech:  accepting help from 
others is just as important as giving it and you always have something to give, 
your company.  

 Thanks 

Mary and Joe Klausner

Nearly 95% of the land in Maryland drains to the Chesapeake Bay

What We Do Matters!
Our landscapes are connected to the Chesapeake Bay.   Prevent pollution and runoff with a healthy yard.
You can help the Bay and 
improve water quality by using Bay-Friendly Techniques with 
your own home landscape. 
These techniques reduce the biggest pollutants in the Bay, sediment and nutrients, (nitrogen and phosphorous), by restoring natural filters.
