Pork in the park
My name is Jerry Elliott, and I’m writing as a follow-up to my post from earlier this week. Knowing that there is always 2 sides to every story, I have since sought out the other side. I have to say that my mindset has now shifted. I mentioned earlier that I was the one who approached the County 10 years ago with the idea for Pork in the Park. Since then, I’ve watched it grow to become a world-class event. I for one would like to see it continue to grow. So let’s not tarnish the future. Instead, let’s come together, moving forward to play our role in making this event a success. This year’s festival promises to be just as strong, if not stronger then years past. So I’ll be at Pork in the Park this year, but I won’t be protesting. Instead, I’ll be embracing the competition and having a good time – just like I always do

Yea... I'm guessing your not going to hear the " other " side of this story.

Pork in the park
Maybe I should clarify what I was trying to say, but evidently not very well. I did not mean to say there was a right or wrong side. Pork in the Park could not be the success it is today without all the efforts of Sandy Fulton and Wicomico County. Unfortunately Sandy fell and broke her hip so she cannot continue in the position she was in. I just want Pork in the Park to continue to grow and continue to be the success it has in the past.

So I guess since we only have Sandy's side do you want to share what you learned? |
We all love Sandy in that roll; that is not in question. She will be missed and there will be some very big shoes to fill.
I do not have any of the facts or the "Other Side" however, has anybody considered what the legal responsibility for the event and the county would be if Sandy fell again or if she hurt herself during the set up and administration of the event. In my experience, government HR departments are very serious of poetical liability, exposure and the role of employees and consultants. It is likely not Sandy that the problem generated from but the circumstances of her condition and her status as an employee. Let’s not throw the baby out with the bath water. Address your concerns at the event yes but I do not think Sandy would what her baby boycotted due to her. See every body there.. Mike |
