What's New This Month

Now that the election is over, when are the rest of the campaign signs coming down? Certainly all signs should be removed before we begin decorating for Christmas. If you know of any signs still up, just email us the sign location and candidate and we will take care of it.

"I beat the IRS, but I still came away very nervous!" Details here .

For the first time, the Internet has been used to quickly mobilize large numbers of voters in a lobbying effort. In two weeks, the rapidly growing anti-impeachment movement collected 285,000 signatures on a petition that was presented to Republican Wayne Gilchrest and other members of Congress. For details about the "Move On" effort, including pictures, click here.

Our full color, high resolution pictures from the Crofton Meadows Elementary School Field Trip to London Town have been temporarily removed by school request. We have replaced them with the Unofficial Crofton Meadows Elementary School Information Page - all the news, information, and, yes, pictures that the school system can't provide.

Crofton Halloween Parade: 150 pictures
CUMC Multi-ministries Building Dedication: 50 pictures
Crofton Kiwanis Foundation Charity Auction: 50 pictures
CUMC Country Market: 15 pictures
