CVC ELECTIONS By John Dye

1 Joint Newsletter of the Columbia and the Piedmont Pacers Volksmarch Clubs June 2012 CVC PATHWAYS CVC President s Column By John Dye The stats from our Meadowbrook walk, April 28 should be in this newsletter. It was a great day to walk and we had a good turnout. It was a little on the chilly side if you were sitting at the top of the hill in the parks & recs shelter. If you witnessed Karen wrapped in a blanket, you probably figured that out already. But our brave, intrepid volunteers were there again allowing you to participate in the sport you enjoy. Their names are also in this newsletter. That s about the extent of their payment Recognition in this world-renowned publication. T h a n k s t o H o w a r d C o u n t y Recreations and Parks, we will start our June event from Cedar Lane Park on Saturday June 16. As we have a Year Round Event that goes through Cedar Lane Park, we have been mindful of not duplicating trails. There is very little overlap with the YRE. It will be a fairly typical Columbia trail which uses the Columbia Association pathway system and sidewalks. Save the date. I think you will enjoy it. Our Annual Elections are in June. I know our current officers have been performing perfectly but we could probably make way for a takeover or some help of any kind. Give it a thought. See you on the trail!

If you would like to discuss any issues with any office feel free to contact, any officer. Message from the President- Piedmont Pacers By Jerry Baugher On May 14, the Piedmont Pacers hosted a social and dinner meeting at J and P New York Restaurant in Westminster, MD that 15 members attended. This is our last formal meeting until September 10 since we typically have skipped meetings during the summer months. J & P Restaurant did a great job. We had a large private room for our dinner and meeting. Everyone enjoyed the meal and I think the only concern raised were that the portions were too large. Almost everyone took home part of their dinner for a second meal another day. Our main agenda items were to solicit new point of contacts for several of YREs since two of our members have had to cut back on their volunteer efforts for health reasons and to start planning traditional walk events for our 25 th Anniversary in We want to thank Ocie Sigley for serving as our point of contact for Westminster for the last several years and a huge HUGE THANKS for Chuck and Joanne Merkel s service over the last 25 years to the Piedmont Pacers serving many years as point of contact for our most popular year round events in Frederick and Thurmont and as trailmaster for most of our traditional events, preparing written instructions and brochures and advertising our events to local media. Because of health reasons Chuck has asked to take early retirement from his Continued on Page 2 CVC is a Member of both the American and Maryland Volkssport Associations page 1

When fish are in schools they sometimes take debate. When the smog lifts in Los Angeles, U.C.L.A. The professor discovered that her theory of earthquakes was on shaky ground. A dentist and a manicurist married. They fought tooth and nail. If you don't pay your exorcist you can get repossessed. With her marriage, she got a new name and a dress. Show me a piano falling down a mineshaft and I'll show you A-flat miner. You are stuck with your debt if you can't budge it. Local Area Network in Australia: The LAN down under. A boiled egg is hard to beat. When you've seen one shopping center you've seen a mall. Police were called to a day care where a three-year-old was resisting a rest. Did you hear about the fellow whose whole left side was cut off? He's all right now. If you take a laptop computer for a run you could jog your memory. In a democracy it's your vote that counts; in feudalism, it's your Count that votes. When a clock is hungry it goes back four seconds The guy who fell onto an upholstery machine was fully recovered. He had a photographic memory which was never developed. When she saw her first strands of gray hair, she thought she'd dye. Acupuncture: a jab well done.
