Walk of Honor celebrates veterans at Elkton Middle School
ELKTON — Students and staff at Elkton Middle School lined the hallways Wednesday morning, American flags in hand, and cheered as U.S. military veterans walked past. Jilene Orman, community school advisor, said this was the first year the school on North Street invited veterans to the school for the Walk of Honor. “It was an honor making everyone feel special,” Orman said after the line of veterans representing several generations and branches of service, accompanied by a student from the school — in most cases their child, grandchild or godchild — walked through the halls. Some of the students presented the veterans with handwritten thank you cards from the 6th grade. “It meant a lot to me,” said Cory Fairfield. He made the Walk of Honor accompanied by his son Bryce, 12, and his daughter Lyric, 3. “I wanted to show my son I served this country and that he can serve too,” he said. Fairfield was in the Army from 2011 to 2013, serving in the 160th Special Operation Aviation Regiment. “It was awesome,” said Michael Wolf, who served in the Marine Corps from 2004 to 2008. The corporal’s service included deployment to Iraq, where he worked in vehicle

Noẽma will bring Mediterranean cuisine to Newark
A new restaurant aims to bring a taste of the Mediterranean to Newark. Noẽma is scheduled to open later this month on Creek View Road, behind Timothy's of Newark and near the new Chapel Street Players theater. The name is inspired by the Greek word for “meaning." "For us, the meaning of life is to connect people around the table," said Ilias Stamatiadis, who owns the restaurant with his wife, daughter and son-in-law. "The concept is a Mediterranean restaurant, but really what we are after is connecting people. We want to be more social. We need to be more social." Born in Greece and raised in Sweden, Stamatiadis came to the United States 35 years ago. For much of his career, he helped run the chain of Pat's Pizzeria restaurants, which were founded by his wife's father. Six years ago, he and his family opened The Naked Olive, a Mediterranean restaurant in Kennett Square, Pa. As The Naked Olive gained popularity, Stamatiadis, who lives in Newark, decided to open a similar restaurant here. "Newark doesn't have a restaurant like that, so we thought we'd give it a try," he said. Noẽma will have a similar concept, with some different menu

The doctor is in: Newark architect lends a listening ear at farmers market
It’s a warm Sunday morning at the Newark Natural Foods farmers market, and nestled between a produce stall and a bakery stand in the parking lot of Newark Shopping Center, Willard Hurd is talking a young man through his girlfriend troubles. The sign above him reads “ARCHITECTURAL HELP, 25¢,” but it turns out people don’t always fully read the sign. Surprisingly, the college-aged man unloading his troubles isn’t an unusual case for Hurd. Since he set up his booth nearly 17 years ago, Hurd has spent most of his Sundays answering questions about solar panels and home additions, but Hurd said every once in a while someone, seeing open seats and a smiling face behind them, will come to him with more personal problems. Playing psychiatrist has just become an occasional part of the job. “I’ve had a dozen or so people who just needed someone to talk to, and I was there, so they sit down,” Hurd said. “I’ve got nothing else going on, not a line of people, so let’s do this.” Hurd, 59, an architect and chair of the Newark Planning Commission, said he started his booth at the farmer’s market in 2009. He had just been
