ABOVE: Summer is a time for relaxing in the sun. One of Carroll County’s favorite places was Frock’s Sunnybrook Farm on Bond Street, just outside Westminster. Established in the 1920s, it had a banquet hall that could be rented for weddings and other events, picnic facilities, and a swimming pool. Frock’s offered Sunday dinners and also held dances. Gene Frock and his Swingmasters band had a large following and drew crowds whenever they performed. Frock’s was a Carroll County tradition for over 50 years before closing in 1997.
