“Ribbon Cutting Ceremony” in Dewey Beach for a child molester/sex offender?


On Sept 17th 2018 the Honorable Senator Chris Coons of Delaware - the state where a convicted child molester runs an event in October for the past 3 years -  wrote the following to The Judiciary Committee requesting to delay a scheduled vote on a nomination for Supreme Court:

“I am deeply troubled by the assault allegations that have been made by Dr. Ford against Judge Kavanaugh. They should be taken seriously by everyone, irrespective of party and ideology. I would like to think that we are beyond the days when dismissing an accuser was an acceptable substitute for investigation and an evenhanded assessment of the facts. The Judiciary Committee should delay this week’s vote to ensure an opportunity for Dr. Ford’s allegations to be promptly investigated."

With that in statement, I would think that the mindset of all forms of Delaware officials - including the voting membership of the Rehoboth Beach–Dewey Beach Chamber of Commerce - would be to delay any “Ribbon Cutting” ceremony for a new CoC member until the individual who is the "face" and president of the organization behind Greyhounds Reach the Beach is vetted, especially in light of the articles posted below.
If a delay due to allegations when an individual was a teenager are good enough for the Delaware Senator to request a delay, then holding off on recognizing someone who is actually a convicted child molester who performed 1st degree sexual assault while an adult and teacher would be a wise move.

The convicted child molester's Facebook representative posted this on Sept 17th 2018

” Did You Know? 

Greyhounds Reach the Beach® is a member of the Rehoboth Beach - Dewey Beach Chamber of Commerce. Even though we became members last year, we are only now getting around to having our “Ribbon Cutting” ceremony! It is scheduled for Thursday, Oct. 4 at 12:00 noon at the Hyatt. I will need to borrow a couple of bomb-proof, photogenic greyhounds for the photo shoot, so please let me know if you can help out with lending a hound. Thanks!

I will be sharing this blog with the Senator's staff in hopes that his recent comments about the Supreme Court nominee would prompt him to reach out to the Rehoboth Beach-Dewey Beach Chamber of Commerce and request a delay in any celebration of a convicted child molester with active lifetime sex offender registration requirements that he was actually convicted of:



I'm sure the State of Wisconsin can fill in any details government officials may have on this individual.

Hyatt, Dewey Beach, DE embraces Child Molester?

caring FOR OUR COMMUNITIES

Meet Hyatt Thrive, our corporate social responsibility platform. Our purpose of care defines our practice of responsibility. By building strong communities and fostering sustainable practices, we’re working to create an environment in which people thrive. As the Hyatt footprint expands to meet the needs of a more connected and traveled world, we have the opportunity—and the responsibility—to grow with purpose and to protect our environment for generations to come. 


everyone MATTERS

With more than 100,000 colleagues across 54 countries, we embrace all cultures, races, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, ages, abilities, perspectives, and ways of thinking. Our culture is one that empowers every individual to be his or her best, and such authentic connection inspires the way we care for each other and for our guests.
The above is from https://about.hyatt.com

It has just been announced that a convicted child molester who must annually register as a lifetime sex offender has teamed up with a Hyatt brand hotel in Dewey Beach DE to hold an event in that hotel in October 2018. When Hyatt says they "care for the community" and that "everyone matters", it would seem by their action that this includes caring for child molesters/pedophiles and that their "sexual orientation" matters above those in the community who should morally and legally be protected from child molesters, pedophiles and sexual offenders.

Bravo Hyatt for taking that caring attitude and ensuring everyone matters including those who use sex to violate others. Perhaps now would be a good time for not only a rethink by Hyatt of their standards but also by the world community to rethink their support and patronage of Hyatt owned properties for trips and vacations.

FASTEN YOUR SEAT BELT CAUSE IT'S GONNA BE A BUMPY NIGHT!


Greyhound Nation, you are currently in a fight for survival. Some of you may not like what I’m about to say, but when has that ever stopped me from speaking up for what I believe in and the greyhounds I will forever stand up for.

If you truly wish to survive, stop doing the same old things. Realize this round is no longer in the legislative arena. The playing field is now in a state-wide campaign to destroy your livelihoods. The opposition is based on a value structure of hate and propaganda and manipulating the facts. Your first step must be to act professionally. No more stupidity on social media. No swearing. No duck faces. If you want to be taken seriously, act like it.

A leader needs to rise to the top and take charge. Without guidance, a plan, vision and/or a clear mission, the Greyhound Nation is running amok. A leader needs to put together an experienced team that can manage the message and keep all up to date in a timely fashion. Can we afford to have our message be presented as if we are coyotes scratching fleas? We need individuals that present themselves as professional, accurate and knowledgeable members of our cause.

I call on the National Greyhound Association to step up and save the Greyhound Nation and bring aboard a leader to lead us against the evils that want to destroy greyhound racing.

This is not a state legislative issue, it is currently a state-wide campaign, it is an issue that affect every state with greyhound racing and greyhound farms. And no matter what side of the issue you take, it is also an issue that will impact greyhound adoption organizations.

We CAN do this. Let the nation see who has real values built on honesty, integrity and let them see that those opposing greyhound racing have values based on hate, manipulation and political deals.

We need to remove the "me" and "I" from the landscape and look to a leader that can guide us as one.

You can fool yourself. You can cheat until you are blind. It not only can happen, it IS happening. We can change the future if we reach for survival with a strong, honest and forceful leader and save Greyhound Nation.

You Say Tomato...

You don't have to be an Einstein to Google a quote correctly.
Even a grade school teacher knows that Albert is not spelled A-l-f-r-e-d.

Maybe this image should be put on a big banner and hung in the offices of the "humane advocate protectors" because not everything they put out in cyberspace or in the hands of legislators is 100% correct.

Legacy……….



On January 4, Mr. Bruce Halle, founder of Discount Tire passed away. I had the privilege of working on a Discount Tire project a few years ago.  Two things were very obvious my first week on the contract.  When a customer called for help, you did whatever it took to take care of it and worked the problem through till resolution was complete. Corporate headquarters did not let those at the stores hang. Another refreshing observation was the friendliness found in the Discount Tire workplace. It was almost like everyone was family

Now remember I was not an employee of Discount Tire. During my time there I was just a faceless contractor hired to assist with an SAP implementation. One afternoon on my way back from lunch, I noticed an older gentleman walking towards the door I had just entered. I went back and I held the door open for the elderly gentleman. The gentleman looked at my badge and said "thank you, Rory". When I mentioned it to co-workers they remarked, oh you just met Mr. Halle. From that point on during the project, anytime Mr. Halle saw me he always greeted me by name. The founder set the standard for courtesy at Discount Tire.

During my time at Discount Tire, a local fellow greyhound adopter needed new tires. She had her greyhound with her when she dropped her car off at Discount Tire. It was during the summer months and for those of you who may not know, here in the valley of the sun temps are often over 100 degrees and it gets very toasty in a vehicle. Later that afternoon when she picked up her car, she did not see it in the Discount Tire parking lot.  Asking where her car was, the Discount Tire technician told her that the car was in another lot parked under a tree so it would be shaded and kept cooler for her greyhound. That is what Discount Tire employees do. They care about their customers.



Courtesy. Caring. Consideration. Doing your job well. Mr. Halle lived that from the day he started Discount Tire with very little money and 6 tires till the day he passed way as a 5-time billionaire. That is a legacy that is passed down from Mr. Halle to many who had the privilege to meet him or work for Discount Tire. 


Be nice, treat others as you would want to be treated and take care of customers. You do that and you will be successful.

We each need to ask ourselves - What will my legacy be? Will it be all about me? Or should we strive to be sure our legacy is what we have taught others and shown to others so that they can pass along kindness and service to others?
