Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina
Looking around maryland for a place to move. Like the affordable (comparatively) housing, school ratings seem decent, close to some good fishing.
Were a pretty chill family. Like gaming and hiking, not into division politics. Value education. Not super religious.
Westminister a good place for us? Are schools good (low fighting and bullying)?
JUST DM
Looking for outdoor things to do with the kids now that it's getting dark early but isn't too cold yet... Any basketball courts with lights on them?

Thank you so much!

Update: he's dead. Died 3 days after the incident: https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/name/joseph-delvecchio-obituary?id=53010970
According to the Carroll County Times:
Joseph W. Delvecchio, owner of Memory Lane Antique Market on East Baltimore Street in Taneytown, has been charged with illegal possession of a firearm, firearm possession with a felony conviction, using a firearm in the commission of a violent crime, second-degree assault and first-degree assault in the incident...
On Aug. 27, at approximately 6:46 p.m., Maryland State Police were contacted by the Taneytown Police Department and were told that a first-degree assault occurred at the Memory Lane Antique Market. State troopers were told there was a person inside the antique market with a gun. When troopers arrived they contacted the antique vendors inside, who told police that Delvecchio had pulled a handgun on a store clerk during a dispute about money...
Witnesses told police that Delvecchio entered through the front door yelling that he had a gun and then pulled out a silver pistol and yelled that he could “blow this place away,” according to charging documents. Another witness told police that he saw Delvecchio take out a gun from his waist and say, “I need my money.”

This man, Delvecchio, was just the worst when I went to his store 2 years ago. Accused myself and my teenage son of stealing from his store because we commented on how is prices were outrageous for some used records. We put our intended purchases back and then he literally chased us out of the store threatening us in the parking lot.
Read the Google reviews for Memory Lane Antiques. There are some real crazy post on there.
Is anyone going to the pride event today? I don’t have anyone to go with and I’m looking to make some new friends!
Does anyone know of any good hiking areas in Carroll County where off leash pups are allowed?
I miss having conversations with other adults, outside of my work environment. I was hoping to just sit down somewhere, in Westminster, and have some real human interaction. Maybe this weekend. Public setting. First round on me. DM me. (fingers crossed)
Hello!

I never thought to look for a CC sub!!!! I grew up in CC in the 70s,80s and 90s!!!
I'm 38 and very out of shape and trying to build muscle. Looking for a coach or a guide in a gym that is in a gym that is very reasonable priced somewhere in Westminster.
A couple years ago, I bought a device from Safe Smoke. I got home to realize it was counterfeit. At the time, I had about 1.5 years in recovery from H (almost 4 years now!!!) and I was rebuilding my life. My job was taking care of my sick grandma so I didn’t really have money to be robbed of. I sent them a message on Facebook honestly explaining my situation hoping I’d at least get a refund. They told me I was SOL so I left a review. THE COMPANY then responded calling me a junky publicly on their page. I wish I kept the screenshots but it hurt me so deeply they got what they wanted: I deleted the review.
It is amazing to me that these scumbags are STILL robbing and ripping off our community just under a different name. I urge anyone with sense to go to ANY OTHER VAPE SHOP. They think we are stupid and they want to steal from their own community.
Thanks for reading.
I'm kinda new in this area and dont know anyone who likes to smoke weed hit me up if you wanna hang out
Title. They closed after opening for 3 months in Townmall. What happened?
Has anyone ever attended or had kids that attended North Carroll Community School? Do you think it was good preparation for high school? What was your overall experience? Thanks!
Driving to and at the farmers market this morning the only people that I saw that were not wearing masks were two city police officers. One officer had a mask but wasn't wearing it even though he was around people. The other officer was on Main Street talking to people and I saw no mask.
I wear my mask to protect others from my droplets.
Honestly wondering, are the police not required to wear a mask to protect others?
Does anyone know about Arborvitate trees in this area? We just moved here into a house that has several Arborvitate trees in the back that are probably about 2 years old. They are a light green/yellowish color with some brown spots on them. I’m not sure if this is normal for this stage, if I should be watering them, etc. I’ve found conflicting information online and I’m not even sure which type of Arborvitate tree they are. Does anyone have any in-site?
