REASONS TO VISIT

Welcome

if you’re Gonna make it HaPPen anywHere … make it HaPPen Here!

“W

elcome to Brownsville and Haywood County, Tennessee! Thanks for stopping by. Won’t you stay for a while?” Those are the first words you will hear when you visit our community and experience Southern hospitality at its best. If you want to just visit or maybe settle down in a true Southern community, come to our town. In the early 1800s settlers chose this community, situated on the Hatchie River and surrounded by rich, fertile farmland, to make their home. They saw good hunting and fishing and soon discovered many of the county’s other natural resources. This was the beginning of the thriving community it is today. In Haywood County you will find everything you need in a community and more. You will also find a community full of citizens who are proud to call Brownsville and Haywood County their home and delight

in making newcomers to the community feel so welcome, they will want to come back for a visit or to make it their home. We’re a great place to visit and an even better place to live, and we want to share our good fortune with you. So now you know why we say, “If you’re gonna make it happen anywhere … make it happen here!”

Brownsville-Haywood County Chamber of Commerce

Situated between Memphis and Jackson, Brownsville has become a “bedroom” community for many who have only a short commute to work; the area is also a great place for those who are ready to retire to a slower pace and have more breathing room. The Memphis area is considered a transportation hub for the 500-mile surrounding area, and 75 percent of the nation’s major markets are within a day’s drive of Brownsville. Our location is yet another reason you will be glad to “make it happen here.”

Home Is Where the Heart Is

I

f “home is where your heart is,” then visit us and let the homes in Brownsville and Haywood County capture your heart. From starter homes to retirement homes to condos and everything in between, there is no limit to the many exciting selections from which you can choose. All newcomers are invited to take a leisurely drive through the neighborhoods of Brownsville and around the county to get an overall view of the styles and sizes of homes available to them. We have it all — from historic (dating back to the mid-1800s) to homes and condos built in the last few years, to country cottages and modern structures. Most of the historic homes have been restored, but there may be a chance of finding one you would like to restore. Architecture in these homes ranges from Greek Revival, Victorian, Colonial and Georgian to cottage or ranch. And if your taste runs to the more modern styles (those less than 100 years old), there are plenty of those, too. There are also lots available in several areas where a family can build the house of their dreams. A number of real estate agents and contractors in the community will be happy to help you locate a home or to build one to your specifications. In Brownsville there’s quick, easy access to grocery stores, schools and shopping just about anywhere you choose to live, and you can enjoy the extra attention that small-town business owners offer, along with their Southern hospitality.

Q/A 1

owning your own Home: Getting started* How do I know if I’m ready to buy a home?

you can find out by asking yourself some questions: • Do I have a steady source of income? • Have I been employed on a regular basis for the last 2–3 years? • Is my current income reliable? • Do I have a good record of paying my bills? • Do I have few outstanding long-term debts, like car payments? • Do I have money saved for a down payment?

• Do I have the ability to pay a mortgage every month, plus additional costs? if you can answer “yes” to these questions, you are probably ready to buy your own home.

2

How do I begin the process of buying a home?

start by thinking about your situation. Are you ready to buy a home? How much can you afford in a monthly mortgage payment? How much space do you need? What areas of Brownsville and Haywood County do you like? After

you answer these questions, make a “To Do” list and start doing casual research. Talk to friends and family, drive through neighborhoods, and look in the “Homes” section of the newspaper. Additionally, you may want to consider pre-applying for a loan. Doing so will allow you to know how much home you can afford before you begin searching; it can also give you negotiating power once you’ve selected a home, as the buyer will know that you’re already approved for a loan. However, the rates and amounts of pre-approval loans are usually only good for a fixed period of time; if your home search exceeds this period, you will have to re-apply for the loan.

How does the lender determine the maximum loan I can afford?

The lender considers your debt-toincome ratio, which is a comparison of your gross (pre-tax) income to housing and non-housing expenses. Non-housing expenses include such long-term debts as car or student loan payments, alimony, or child support. According to the FHA, monthly mortgage payments should be no more than 29 percent of gross income, while the mortgage payment, combined with non-housing expenses, should total no more than 41 percent of income. The lender also considers cash available for down payment and closing costs, credit history, and so on when determining your maximum loan amount.

How do I select the right real estate agent?

The Brownsville-Haywood County Chamber of Commerce can provide a list of area agents. Talk to each before choosing one. Look for an agent who listens well and who understands your needs and whose judgment you trust. The ideal agent knows the local area well and has resources and contacts to help you in your search. Overall, you want to choose an agent who makes you feel comfortable and can provide all the knowledge and services you need. *Source: The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development

Business & Industry We’re Oh, So Versatile!

Agriculture

Find Your Niche Here!

The largest industry in Haywood County is agriculture. We grow more cotton than any other county in Tennessee and produced 189,000 bales last year on 103,000 acres. With its rich, fertile soil, the county’s heritage began on the farm — and several generations later, it remains on the farm. Soybeans are the county’s No. 2 crop, followed by corn. Then we must not forget about the abundant flower and vegetable gardens in the area that provide everyone with fresh vegetables for their summertime pleasure and for canning or freezing. We also have fruit farms in the county, and growers are more than happy to share their products with residents and visitors alike. Just look for the convenient fruit and vegetable stands on the streets or along the roadside, or listen to your neighbors to find out where to get your fill of the fruits and vegetables of Haywood County’s fertile ground. Agriculture and agriculture-related businesses contributed more than $130 million to our economy in 2004.

Brownsville-Haywood County businesses offer a wide array of products and services to shoppers. In addition to meeting your everyday shopping needs, the retail community is quickly developing a reputation for its “niche” shopping. With a retail base of hundreds of businesses (more than 20 have opened up in the last several years), more and more are featuring a unique variety of products for browsers and shoppers. One can shop for collectibles, vintage clothing, jewelry, dried and silk flowers and other home décor items, pottery, stained glass, artwork, children’s clothing, gifts and toys, china, silver, furniture, outdoor and recreational supplies, apparel, and hunting and fishing equipment. You can even find supplies for scrap-booking here. You can always find the perfect gift for yourself or for someone else in Brownsville shops. And while you’re here, stop for a bite to eat in one of our many restaurants, which offer a wide array of cuisines. You might especially want to try some of our Southern “home-cooked” meals in area restaurants. If you decide to make it an overnight shopping spree, book a room in Brownsville’s historical bed and breakfast, which also offers meals and a place for parties, dinners and receptions. Shopping in Brownsville will be an adventure you won’t forget.

Industries — Strong and Diverse Brownsville-Haywood County is proud of its industrial base, which is quite large for a community of this size. Why? Because it’s an attractive place to locate, both aesthetically and economically, and because of the low cost of living and no state taxes. The local governments, the Chamber of Commerce and the Brownsville-Haywood County Industrial Development Board welcome prospects with open arms, Southern hospitality and great incentives. Among these incentives is the PILOT program, or Payment in Lieu of Taxes, which enables companies to reduce their tax burdens during the early phases of operation. Other local incentives include preemployment selection/training and testing; startup skills training/assessment; relocation incentives for staff moves; incentives on utilities, including water, wastewater, gas and electricity; financing alternatives, such as using industrial revenue bonds or the lease-back alternative; design/ build and lease alternatives; and local tax concessions.

Education E

veryone who works for the Haywood County Board of Education is a dream maker. They give students the educational tools they need to make their dreams come true. From the pilot preschool program through high school, local educators offer students a well-rounded educational experience through academics, technology, arts, sports and numerous extracurricular opportunities. At Anderson Early Childhood Center, preschoolers and kindergartners master basic skills with the help of parents and teachers who work together so students can move into the first grade prepared. Elementary schools offer outstanding programs in math, science, language, spelling, social studies and computer technology, preparing them for junior high school. In junior high, in addition to expanding their studies in all basic courses, students also take history and foreign-language classes and are introduced to extracurricular activities and sports in seventh and eighth grades. This enables students to make an easier transition to high school, where they can choose their courses, sports and activities based on interests they have developed. Haywood High School (HHS) students can elect to further their academic studies to prepare them for college or to take technology courses that teach them specific

job skills, preparing them for a number of different careers. The two divisions interact, giving students options that will enable them to make better life choices in the real world after graduation. Students at Haywood High School earn hundreds of thousands of scholarship dollars each year.

Scoring BIG on Academics The Tennessee Academic Decathlon (TAD) was formed at Haywood High School in 1985 and has grown to be a strong academic competition across the state. The founders of this competition in Tennessee were Gordon Perry, Glynn Bridgewater and George Norvell, all from Haywood County. Dr. Susan Wilson, assistant principal at Haywood High, is chairman of the Board of Directors of TAD, and Glynn Bridgewater, English instructor at Haywood High, is executive secretary-treasurer of TAD. Regional competitions are held in west, middle and east Tennessee each year, and state competition is held at Austin Peay State University in Clarksville. The organization is part of the United States Academic Decathlon (USAD), which has headquarters in Los Angeles, California. USAD establishes the curricu-

lum, which changes every year. The 2004– 2005 curriculum theme was “Ancient Civilizations,” and the 2005–2006 theme is “The European Renaissance.” Haywood High has advanced to state competition for 19 consecutive years and has ranked among the top five schools each year. Haywood High School was a pioneer in innovation in 2003, being the first school in Tennessee to enter two separate teams in competition. Both teams advanced to state competition. In 2005, HHS placed fourth in the state, and our students won a total of 19 medals. One of our students, Joe Sills, was the overall first-place scorer in his division. In 2006, TAD will celebrate its 20th anniversary in Tennessee. Special recognitions and The 2004–2005 Haywood High School Academic Decathlon Team placed fourth in the state this year, with students winning a total of 19 medals.

Haywood County schools have one of the state’s pilot preschool programs at anderson early Childhood Center. u.s. Commissioner of agriculture mike Johanns visited three Haywood County schools — east side elementary, Haywood elementary and sunny Hill elementary school — to present them with a “Healthier u.s. school Challenge award.” these were the only three schools in tennessee to receive the award and three of only four award-winners in the nation.

ceremonies are planned for the January competition at HHS. Each team consists of nine students — three A students, three B students and three C or below students. Therefore, the competition is for students of all abilities, not just the academically elite. Decathletes take written and/or oral tests in 10 academic subject areas — literature, science, mathematics, music, art, economics, social science, essay writing, public speaking and interview. Medals are awarded to the top scorers in each area.

Giving young students an edge There’s all kinds of innovation going on at Anderson Early Childhood Development Center. Preschool and kindergarten students are getting a jump on being prepared socially and academically for first grade — and they are doing so with parental participation. This is a requirement for students to attend Anderson. Anderson is the site of one of the first premier pilot preschool programs in the state of Tennessee. Many other school systems have visited Anderson to use it as a model for their programs. The program first teaches students proper classroom behaviors — how to follow rules and exercise discipline — and shares other social skills with them to make the learning environment more productive. There is an instructor for every 15 children. Instructors prepare students for kindergarten, then first grade. Of great importance is teaching the children “reading

readiness.” About 85 percent of the students can read at some level when they enter first grade. Each year, students are recognized each six weeks for exemplary behavior, improvement and mastering skills at end-of-the-six-weeks pep rallies. An added attraction at Anderson is a partnership program the school has with the University of Tennessee Extension Service that offers students and their parents additional material, help with schoolwork, access to computers and computerlearning programs, and learning games and puzzles that they can use in the Family Resource Center or check out to take home. Young students in Haywood County have an advantage over students in other communities with the preschool and kindergarten program at Anderson Early Childhood Center. It’s just the first step the school system takes to ensure that the children in the community get an early and sound foundation for learning in Haywood County Schools.

Hatchie River by Glen Gallien Arising from the springs and brooks in the gently rolling hills near Corinth, Mississippi, the Hatchie River flows northwest through Haywood County and west Tennessee, eventually emptying into the Mississippi River. In a region where most rivers have historically been drastically altered by straightening and dredging for flood-control purposes, the Hatchie is the longest unchannelized river remaining in the Lower Mississippi River Valley. Its annual floods continue to support unique riverine features, such as oxbow lakes, as well as a floodplain that expands up to 3 miles wide in reaches and hosts the most www.brownsville-haywoodtn.com 23

extensive bottomland forests in Tennessee. These intact habitats support over 100 species of fish, 35 species of mussels and 250 species of birds. Many of these species can be found in the nearly 10,000-acre national wildlife refuge located in the heart of Haywood County. While the Hatchie remains a gem, it is highly threatened. Perhaps the most serious threat to the river’s aquatic and forest communities is excessive sediment that is transported to the Hatchie from its tributaries. This erosion and subsequent sedimentation impacts agricultural fields and bottomland forests, decreasing crop and timber values on private and public lands. Excessive sediment also forms sand shoals in the main river channel, altering aquatic habitats and species diversity as well as hindering local recreational opportunities such as fishing and hunting. In 1998, The Nature Conservancy began the Hatchie River Project with the vision to protect the rich biological diversity of the Hatchie River, while maintaining sustainable cultural and economic uses of the river. The Nature Conservancy has designated the Hatchie River as “One of the 75 Last

The horse show was originally named the Jimmy Waddell Memorial Horse Show, and Waddell’s son, Dan, also a trainer at Formac Stables, competes every year in this show. This community is an easy sell for Walking Horse trainers and owners because it is centrally located, and organizers and sponsors have made it a classact show since its inception. Over the years, improvements have been made to the show’s East Side Arena through the help of the city, the county and countless volunteers who work many hours to present this exceptional event. Of special interest to participants and visitors to the event is the outstanding concession stand that provides great food and everyone’s favorite — Southern fried pies. Basically the show is most widely known for the hospitality shown to all visitors. Each year, the proceeds from the event go to help a worthy cause — most recently the Carl Perkins Center for the Prevention of Child Abuse, which has a satellite office in Brownsville. Overall, the event makes the community proud and provides visitors an opportunity to see Brownsville-Haywood County during one of its finest hours each year.

We’re All About Our Heritage

The Brownsville-Haywood County Arts Council's production of “Annie” was a big hit with local crowds.

B

rownsville-Haywood County has a deep, rich Southern heritage in architecture, agriculture and the arts, and it has been the tradition of this community to share its heritage with everyone. A simple drive through the city and county will pique the interest of any earlyAmerican history buff, as he or she sees the homes, buildings and churches that date back to the early 19th century. The county’s economy has long been based on agriculture, and the county abounds with beautiful farmland that continues to be fertile, producing crops of cotton, corn, wheat, soybeans, other grains, and vegetables and fruits. From this heritage, artists of all genres have created music, paintings and writings to record the region’s history through the arts.

Early blues musicians Sleepy John Estes, Yank Rachel and Hammie Nixon are known throughout the world for their music, as are Tina Turner and Fuel for their rock music and Alex Harvey for his country lyrics. These are just a few of the artists who have called Brownsville-Haywood County home. Visitors can swing by the city’s West Tennessee Delta Heritage Center to see all the hometown musicians in the Music Museum. And this short list does not include the many professionals of Haywood County descent who have made a name for themselves and for this community through their work in business, other forms of art, travel, literature, history, sports, medicine, agriculture, faith and politics. Hometown folks appreciate the arts and are fortunate to have the BrownsvilleHaywood County Arts Council and the

Wednesday Morning Musicale to bring them wonderful dramatic, musical and comedy productions each year. These organizations join many others that enhance the community’s social offerings, as do several patriotic and historical organizations that preserve the history of our veterans and promote Americanism.

In addition, the county is known for its generosity, with many programs that help those in need. The Boys and Girls Club, the Exchange Club, the Scott Street Resource Center, Habitat for Humanity, the Carl Perkins Center for the Prevention of Child Abuse, the Brownsville Rotary Club, and other organizations, church groups, businesses and individuals join together to support numerous year-round efforts to make life a little better for those who are less fortunate. After all, we want everyone to know that Brownsville-Haywood County is a great place to live. The city and county are also fortunate to be home to the Haywood County Sports Museum and a valuable and unique Lincoln Collection. Preserving our past are the community’s Historical Society and the Reese MosesScallions Genealogy Room at the county’s Elma Ross Public Library. One of the

Historical Society’s continuing missions, in conjunction with the city and county, is to place plaques and monuments throughout the community to mark significant historical events. The Genealogy Department of the library provides thousands of pieces of information annually to people who are searching for their roots. In addition, the library has an outstanding collection of books, reference materials and periodicals and offers the community a wide array of services, including Internet access, a meeting room, the Lunch and Learn Program, a summer reading program for children in the community, and copies of local newspapers on microfilm dating back to 1838. There is a lot of pride in Haywood County, and there are many reasons for it. It’s a county rich in heritage — a heritage that its citizens want to preserve and share.
