John Allen, vice president of Delmarva Power, was elected earlier this month as chair of the 46-year-old Greater Salisbury Committee (GSC) for a two-year term.
GSC is a not-for-profit civic improvement association covering parts of three states.
In addition, to holding several positions in GSC over several years, Allen has been very active on both the regional level and the local area, including service on the board of the Maryland Chamber of Commerce, a graduate of Leadership Maryland, and active in Junior Achievement of the Eastern Shore, Big Brothers Big Sisters, and many other community groups.
Other new officers elected for two-year terms were Mat Tilghman, former president of Hanna Kremer, Tilghman Insurance Agency, as first vice chair; Ron Boltz, president of Alarm Engineering as second vice chair; and Walter Moore, president of APPI Energy, as secretary-treasurer.

Elected to two-year terms on GSC’s Executive Committee were Mike Delano, president of The Country House; Brent Miller, owner of Sperry Van Ness Miller Commercial Real Estate; and Susan Wilgus-Murphy, president of Wilgus Nationwide Insurance, all of Salisbury. They will be joining the following persons who will be completing their second year on the Executive Committee: Katarina Ennerfeldt, president of the Toroid Corporation; Bill McCain, president of W. R. McCain & Associates; and John Stern, managing member of PKS Investment Services.
Completing their two-year terms as at-large members of the Executive Committee were Hunter Calloway of BB&T Banks; Jack Heath, now retired CEO of Lower Shore Enterprises; and Michael James, general manager of the Carousel Hotel and Resort Condominiums in Ocean City.
Greater Salisbury Committee is an organization of about 115 business CEOs or senior executives who devote their efforts to making the region a better place to live and work. GSC counts the establishment of Wor-Wic Community College, Salisbury Neighborhood Housing, and the Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore as well as saving from closure both Salisbury University and the University of Maryland Eastern Shore among its historical triumphs. Recent and/or currently on-going projects include stopping the “brain drain” of our talented young people from the Shore by leadership in the development of the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport (MARS) at Wallops Island as a source of high-quality jobs for our talented youth.

Don't see anyone from PRMC. Thought Boss Hogg or one of her cronies would be on the committee spouting the accomplishments of one of the nation's "100 worst hospitals". While Nero fiddled...
If you want to avoid the brain drain, stop heterogeneous grouping in our schools whereby capable students get no above grade level instruction. These students could learn so much if they were considered important enough to teach. They are not "more" important than other students, but they should not be so much "less" important either.
Yippee, Barry Tilghmans hubby made the cut. Isn't that special!!

Thank you to anyone who wants to serve their fellow man. Thank you to anyone who wants to make Salisbury a better place. I hope their roots are strong and deep and keep this city going well into the future.

That group, which should be renamed as the Salisbury House of Lords, has done nothing to prevent the debacle of the Bury and Wicomico County during the past 25 years.
