Thurmont leos at the Carnival
By Rosemary McDermott
“Wow! Does it get much hotter
than this?” grumbled the Thurmont
customer to the young LEO behind
the booth. After his purchase of the
lovely Friendship Bracelet, a smile
shone from his face despite the
steamy weather. Patrons of the 2010
Thurmont Fire Company’s Carnival
took the heat in stride. After all,
this is a once-a-year event. And who
could resist a charming bracelet from
one of Thurmont’s dedicated LEOs?
The young folks in the carnival
booth busily made and sold the
Friendship Bracelets during the
entire week. On Thursday, a number
Danielle
Kaufman
and Gabby
Bodroghy, two
of the LEos,
taking a short
rest break
during the
carnival.

of the Catoctin High School LEOs
and the Thurmont Middle School
LEOs marched in the parade.
They accompanied the impressive
Thurmont Lion’s Club float. The
float displayed cardboard cutouts
of some of this energetic group’s
contributions to our community,
including the Trolley Trail, the
eyeglass project, the scholarship fund
and some of the other community
projects. We encourage this
wonderful group of young LEOs
as they grow into our community
leaders.

Emmitsburg.
Lunch was held at Red’s Tavern on Chesapeake Avenue during which, Tim

The club was founded in 1970 by Louise Bream. For the last fourteen

walk every Tuesday unless there is a weather advisory.
The club’s oldest walker is 89 year-old, Mary Lincoln. She has been a

she was a “war bride”. Additional walkers include world traveler, Wes, who
has been to Russia 28 times and Australia 13 times; Ellen who is an author and
