Here is the statement:

​“Greetings,
I wanted to take a moment to update you on some new changes for your Montgomery County Police, 6th District Team. On June 10, 2018 we are launching our new Montgomery Village Team. This team is comprised of a sergeant, corporal and four police officers. Their primary responsibility will be to provide proactive patrols and problem solving in the Village. While they will run calls for service from time to time, their focus is to work on problem solving through community outreach, coordination of resources and of course enforcement efforts. The team is led by Sgt. Carlo Corvoisier. Sgt. Corvoisier has an extensive amount of experience in Wheaton patrol, the Special Assignment Team, Narcotics and more. His second in command is a long time 6D member, Corporal Edward Rodriguez who has served as our School Resource Officer at Watkins Mill as well as a patrol officer and Corporal in the “Robert Sector” which encompasses The Village. The officers are the team are Ofc. Sheri Bare, Ofc. Bastian Urriola, Ofc. Timothy Banker and Ofc. Paul Rodgerson. All of these officers were hand selected and they each bring a variety of experiences and all bring a strong passion for making a difference.

To ensure we are as coordinated as possible I have also moved the supervision of the School Resource Officer and the Community Services Officer under the Montgomery Village Team. This will ensure that some of our most critical efforts are coordinated in one chain of command. Our new school resource officer is Ofc. Ashely Breslin who has been on a temporary assignment at Watkins Mill High School for the entire 2017-2018 school year. Ashley has done a great job and made a big impact on WMHS.


Muncaster Mill, less commonly known as Highway 115, is a road that starts at Woodfield Rd. in Gaithersburg and extends to Norbeck Rd. in Rockville.

​The following passage can be found on the Montgomery Parks website: “The unusually picturesque frame grist mill (where grains like wheat and corn were ground into flour) with a steep gambrel roof and stone piers, was part of the adjacent “Milton” farm, home of the Robertson and Muncaster families.


Poki DC will be opening soon in Rio according to their signage and recent Facebook post (it’ll be located near the movie theater across from BGR). Their North Bethesda store at the Georgetown Square shopping center is expected to open later this summer as well (10400 Old Georgetown Road).

The Rio location will be opening this summer and has a lot to offer.


At the time he was attending St. Martin’s in Gaithersburg. His uncle was helping his mother pay for tuition at the private school prior to her passing. He officially took Helton in and raised him for the next few years until his incarceration and subsequent deportation. He finished that school year living at his best friend’s house, but didn’t know where he’d go next.

Many families offered to take Helton in, but everything would keep falling through at the last minute. It wasn’t until just before his freshman year at Good Counsel that he was taken in by the Abudayeh family. Vivian Abudayeh was battling cancer at the same time Helton’s mother was, but was able to survive. She informed her husband of the situation and Helton has been with the family ever since.


I dont think I’d ever jump out of an airplane…it’s just not my thing. Because of that, I was a bit hesitant to give iFly a shot, but since it was finally in MoCo I knew I had to.

​Yesterday, I was able to go in for my first iFly experience at their Gaithersburg location (9400 Gaither Road). I had a great time and I recommend it as an activity you can do solo, with friends, on a date, or with the whole family.


Having grown up in Gaithersburg, heading over to The Airport Cafe to watch the planes was something I’d do once every couple years. As I’ve gotten older, enjoying their $15 all-you-can-eat brunch buffet on Sundays has made it a deal that’s tough to beat.

Outdoor seating, plane-watching, brunch, and an inexpensive good time for the whole family.
