I hate to give only 4 stars to the Howard County District Court…read more First and foremost, I always had a great experience with the Howard County District Court Security located at 3451 Court House Drive (always warm and welcoming), the Sheriffs (willing to assist without hesitation), an absolutely friendly female Clerk (the person with a Jamaican Accent who is highly knowledgeable and a professional), and others who take the time to assist the general public in need. Even the cashier was very friendly and went above and beyond to assist me, even though she was unfamiliar with that particular subject (she called someone else (the lady with the Jamaican Accent) who provided me proper guidance, which I am grateful for. However, there is a male clerk who sits behind the window, and he feels that either he is unhappy with his job, or he appears to simply not want to be there. I had a terrible experience because he would not answer all the questions, and he would make people wait for no reason. When he answers, he is rude and disrespectful, and he has a nonchalant attitude. When I was there, I thought he might have had a bad day, which we all encounter here and there. However, when my son went to the courthouse on a different day, precisely a week or two later, he had the same attitude. Not only that, but my son also witnessed that others have complained about that particular individual as well. In my line of work, I provide service to the general public all the time, and it's very important to take pride in what we do and the care we deliver to the people. Moreover, I completely understand that it is a high-stress job, working in the courthouse. However, if the negativity continues, it destroys the team morale, and it makes it difficult for others who strive to deliver the best care possible. The saying goes, "all it takes is one apple to spoil the whole cart". I am not here to get anyone in trouble because life is difficult as it is. With that being said, I believe in "Just Culture". Perhaps an actual training, genuine mentoring, and working closely with the individual to help change his negative attitude to being positive one and guide him to become an expert in customer care. This will be great for not only the team but the overall success of everyone, especially the General Public!

In the space given we were able to fit 17 tables 1 candy table 4 tables for food 1 game table 1 table for the expecting parents 10 tables for the guest to sit There was a stage were the DJ set up and the gifts were lined along the stage. There was plenty of parking on the side of the building as well as where the playground is. If the weather was nicer the kids would be able to run around outside as well. I definitely recommend this place for your next event, whether it be a birthday party, baby shower or any other family event you wont he disappointed.

Probably one of the more interesting hikes that I have done in awhile. The hike will be quite…read moreshort, but you got hills and steps to get your work out on. I think the feel of the place is supposed to be spooky, unfortunately, I picked a spring break day to do it and there were enough teenagers running around here like savages (just kidding, they were all really sweet) it doesn't really have a scary feel to it at all. To explain the ruins, it was Roman Catholic school in Ilchester, Maryland. The ruins are near Ilchester and Bonnie Branch roads (so the Yelp location is pretty straight on). It was called hell house in the 70s after it was abandoned and vandalized and rumors have it a strange cult started living there. It also had an over zealous caretaker who had a gun and some dogs and would assault vandals. He was displaced after the school was set ablaze by arsonists. Hell House altar structure that most people take pictures of is at the top of a very steep hill, about a mile in. It used to have a large metal cross, and it is a very unique place for a photoshoot. For easy access, park in the lot for patapsco state park (right past the train tracks) where the trailhead is and start coming up to the left of the train tracks.

June 2023…read more Disclaimer: Review based solely on jury service experience I was summoned back in April for jury service, but was sick so was excused and resummoned for June. If you are summoned for jury duty, note that the parking garage is a zoo so plan to arrive early. Fortunately they don't start promptly so it's ok if you are several minutes late. Upon arriving at the courthouse, you will need to go through security. The jury assembly room is upstairs to the left. Upon entering the room, you sign in at the desk on the right, then you can be seated anywhere. There is plenty of seats including counter seats with outlets if you need to work on a laptop or charge your electronic devices. The jury assembly room has a kitchen with vending machines, a coffee maker, microwave, refrigerator, and two dining tables (each seats 4). There is also a water dispenser (accessible for bottles), coat room, and restroom. The judge came out and spoke to us and thanked us for our time and service. Later, a circuit clerk called our names and gave us a badge with a number on it. This would be used as our personal identification instead of being referred to by our names if we were selected to be a juror. We were then instructed to go in line to get our parking validated and to receive our $30 expense money. We were informed mid-morning that we were dismissed from service and given documentation to provide to our employers as evidence of our service. It was the funniest thing to see how quickly everyone bolted out of the courthouse. It had the same feeling to me as Black Friday. Lol. Getting out of the parking garage was comparable to leaving a venue after a concert or an event. It was jam-packed and slow getting out. Note, the gate was open so it wasn't necessary to check out at the kiosk. I liked my jury experience in Howard County much better than when I served in Montgomery County mainly because parking was more adequate and I am slightly more knowledgeable of the process this time around.
