The community and business leaders serving as campaign council members included: co-chairs Del Karfonta of The Columbia Bank, and Kevin Kelehan of Carney, Kelehan, Bresler, Bennett & Scherr; Cheryl Guth, McGuire Woods LLP; Bill Howard, 1st Mariner Bank; Larry Letow, Convergence Technology Consulting; Chris Marasco, Howard Bank; Jane Padgett, M&T Bank; Eric Regelin, Granix, LLC; Elizabeth Rendon, LG-TEK; April Robbins, Re/Max Le Reve; Darryl Stokes, Baltimore Gas and Electric; and Richard Talkin, Talkin & Oh, LLP.
