football season is about to start. But it is and, in fact, already has for the area's high
school football players. “Early, early, early!” Brighton's Will Wolfe, the longesttenured coach in Tipton County, was yelling Tuesday morning as his team ran through some plays in helmets and shorts. Players and coaches at Covington, Munford and Tipton-Rosemark were also working out this week. Several teams have already held 7-on-7 scrimmages and some full-contact scrimmages are slated for the coming weeks. Five weeks from tomorrow all four area teams will open up the 2013 season.

In the two weeks since Atoka’s splash park opened, complaints have been trickling in consistently via social media, but town officials aren’t letting them dampen their spirits. “There are startup issues any time you open a new facility,” said Town Administrator Brian Koral. “This is a whole new facility, so there are going to be concerns.” Though many of the negative posts were removed Wednesday morning, members of the Fans of Atoka Facebook group have voiced numerous concerns on everything from a dress code to smoking, drinking and usage of the park by non-residents. On Tuesday, when the heat index was forecasted to exceed 100 degrees, one resident even complained the water was too cold. Over the weekend, another resident questioned the park’s usage by nonresidents after hearing a rumor that a bus carrying children from Memphis City Schools was visiting the park. She complained that the splash park was being overrun by “city kids,” and stated she moved from Bartlett to get out of the city. Koral doesn’t tend to get involved in complaints that are not reported directly to the town, but stepped in Saturday to clear up any misunderstanding. Koral posted information clarifying the children were visiting with a YMCA camp in Munford. Photos taken while the children were at the park show it was less populated during the time in which it was allegedly “overrun” than it is on standard weeknight. He encourages residents with complaints and concerns to report them to town officials so they can be properly addressed. “We understand there have been some complaints on Facebook, but we encourage people to call the town or report it through our website. That’s the actual way to submit an issue and that’s the way to get town staff notified and dealing with it.” SEE PARK, A2

PARK
Continued from A1 While the constant barrage of complaints and concerns has have been somewhat quelled by the posting of signage at the park and rules and regulations on the town’s website, they’re still coming in, Koral said, and they’re not about the children. “All of the complaints we’re getting are about adult behavior at a splash park constructed for use by children,” he said. “We encourage adults to just be considerate of each other and be good examples for the children who are using the park.” Koral understands there will always be someone with a negative outlook and that social media provides these
people with a platform, but he believes most residents are excited about the new splash pad. “The key thing is that we keep it in context. There have been a few negative comments and I don’t believe that even comes close to representing even a fraction of the number of people who use the facility.” Koral said the park’s repeated usage speaks volumes for the number of people who are excited about the new splash pad and sand volleyball courts. Estimates show Atoka is seeing 1,000 people using the park per day, on average. He said the town wanted to make Walker Park a recreational hub and officials

Commission on energy line: No thanks By JEFF IRELAND jireland@covingtonleader.com Officials in Tipton County have made their position pretty clear about the possibility of an electric power transmission line coming through the county: Thanks, but no thanks. During the Tipton County Legislature's monthly meeting on Monday, General Welfare Committee Chairman Bob Wilson reported that his committee had voted unanimously against the plan. According to the organization's website, Clean Line Energy Partners “is developing a series of transmission lines that will deliver thousands of megawatts of renewable power from the windiest areas of the United States to communities and cities that have a strong demand for clean, reliable energy but lack access to clean energy resources.” The organization is seeking to run the lines
through the south end of Tipton County as part of a 700-mile overhead high voltage line from Oklahoma to West Tennessee. Two routes are under consideration, both of which run through Tipton County. The Munford Board of Mayor and Aldermen passed a resolution in March against the plan. Munford Mayor Dwayne Cole said, “It would virtually cut the city into two parts, devalue current properties, and render undeveloped land undesirable for development.” The county's resolution against the plan was passed unanimously by the full commission Monday night. “It's an issue that has been around for a long
time,” County Executive Jeff Huffman said. “It's a huge, billion dollar project.” The county's resolution read, in part, “It is unknown what impact this project will have on property values and future residential and commercial development in the affected areas of Tipton County.” In other matters: • Huffman announced that between 59 and 65 recent Tipton County high school graduates have been awarded scholarships funded by the payment in lieu of taxes agreement with Unilever Manufacturing in Covington. The scholarships, which are for $600 per year for two years of higher education, are part of the
Tipton County Education and Workforce Initiative. The West Tennessee Healthcare Foundation is the fiscal organization that will be responsible for distributing the funds to colleges and universities. Huffman said the total amount dispersed for this year will be between $36,000 and $40,000. Recipients are required to perform eight hours of community service. • Huffman said he expects the commissioners to be presented a 2013-14 budget for approval at the Aug. 13 meeting. • Sheriff Pancho Chumley said a Tipton County Sheriff's Office reserve recruiting class began June 4 and that a class of 21 people had decreased to 10.

FLASHBACK
Quit griping and enjoy the park On today’s front page, you’ll find a story sharing some of the complaints that have come in since the Atoka splash park opened on July 5. Some of these complaints range from concerns over secondhand smoking to complaints over the water being too cold. Yes, you read that right. Someone is complaining, on a day with a heat index of 104, that the water is too cold. Who’s going to make sure those heinous criminals known simply as bored teenagers won’t loiter? Who’s going to be the fashion police? Who’s going to make sure food isn’t brought into the fenced-in area? Who’s going to ensure children don’t slip and fall while they’re running around on a wet surface? And then there was the OFF THE RECORD false report that a busload of ECHO DAY “inner city kids” from Memphis was utilizing the splash pad and that it just wasn’t right. Are you kidding me, Atoka? Last week I took my niece and nephew to splash around in the sprinklers and pretend to play volleyball on the new sand courts. They are four and five and enjoyed shooting at each other with the water guns, digging in the sand, waving hello to friends. There must have been 200-300 other people there that night, and, much to my surprise after reading the posts in the Fans of Atoka group on Facebook, we had no problems. No one was smoking, drinking or doing drugs. At least not where this overprotective aunt could see. Everyone was appropriately dressed. The teenagers there were not terrorizing anyone. There was no food on the splash pad or volleyball court. The water temperature was appropriate given the outdoor temperature. In fact, everyone was happy or content. The children were having fun and the adults even seemed to be enjoying themselves. The park was clean, parking wasn’t an issue and two police officers were walking the grounds as we left. At the risk of sharing a positive experience about the park, we had a great time that night and plan to return. There’s been much discussion by residents who want the park to be an Atoka-only facility, but I disagree with that sentiment (especially because I live in Covington). The alleged busload of “inner city kids” was actually a bus carrying a load of children from a YMCA camp in Munford, but that shows you how people are overreacting. What if it was true, though? What if children were visiting from Memphis? Show them some hospitality, show them why you love living in Tipton County. Who cares where they live? Instead of finding issue with this park, I want to publicly applaud city and elected officials for making this happen. You did a fine job, ladies and gentlemen. I wish Covington could have something so nice, but ... well, it’s Covington and here juveniles burn down entire volunteer-built playgrounds instead of just pavilions. Enjoy your upscale amenities, friends, and look on the bright side. You have a really great thing going.

However, in recent years, many ballplayers — like other professional athletes — have discovered that various types of training, including yoga, can greatly increase their flexibility, allowing them to reduce injuries and play more effectively. As an investor, you, too, need flexibility in the sense of being able to adjust your portfolio, as needed, in response to changes in your life or in your goals.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Martin case I was not there, so I don’t know how it happened. Apparently no one witnessed the encounter between Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman that resulted in the death of Martin. We might not agree with the verdict in the case. But we do know the case was heard/seen by millions of people. We do know the prosecution did a good job presenting the case with what evidence they had to work with. We know the defense attorneys did their job discounting that evidence and establishing the motive as self-defense. We know that an intelligent jury considered the evidence and motive for 16 hours before
reaching the decision of “not guilty”. This is the American system of justice. It is not without faults, but it is the best justice system in the world. As Americans - black, white, Hispanic or any other possible ancestry - let us resolve to resist any attempt by the present administration to use this tragic event as another arrow in their quiver to divide us. Let us instead abide by the wise words of Mrs. Martin, Trayvon’s mom, as she said simply, “God is in control.” Bill Wallace Covington

The shelter feels that it is the responsibility of pet owners to help keep animals from running at large and carrying unplanned litters. To this end, the program consists of selling spay/ neuter vouchers at a reduced cost to citizens of Tipton County. The charge for the voucher is $25.00 and will fully cover the spay/neuter operation. There will be 300 initial vouchers available and will be sold on a firstcome-first-serve basis at the Tipton County Animal Shelter, located at 8621 Hwy 5l in Brighton. Please ensure that your pet is up-to-date on all vaccinations from a licensed veterinarian to avoid any additional charges. It will be the responsibility of the citizen to transport the animal to and from the veterinarian performing the procedure.

Kathy Keiter Hello everybody! I sure do hope and pray everyone is enjoying their summer and trying not over do things! It’s so easy to do that! My grandson did it last week when he ran around and played with a 4 month old German Sheppard. He sweats like crazy anyway, and I thought he had been swimming when I came in because he was so wet all over, hair, clothes, everything! Later in the evening, he ate a good supper but began to complain about his right side hurting. We ruled out appendix because it was on the right side rather than the left. The only thing we could think of was that he had become dehydrated. And sure enough, that’s exactly what it was. After he drank one full bottle of water, he was up and playing again in about 20 minutes. This heat can get to you, and I think my grandson learned a lesson, that if you don’t drink water, it can cause very painful cramps. So don’t forget to hydrate your body when you are outside! We have a birthday coming up tomorrow; it’s one of my staff, Linda Jackett. Happy birthday Linda, hope your day will be very special. And once again, happy birthday to Mr. Jim Downs, his was the only resident birthday this month! Please be praying for one of our residents, Bo Skinner, who is in Methodist North Hospital with pancreatitis. Please also pray for his brotherin-law, who is battling cancer. We now have an apartment for rent. It’s an independent living apartment. It’s for folks 55+, $1,000 a month with utilities furnished and maintenance provided inside and out. If you know of anyone that needs something like this, please give me a call at 476-7014 and I’ll be glad to set up a time to show you what
we have to offer. It’s so quiet out here in the country and you’ll be in a separate apartment with two other “young ladies” in their own apartment as well. Please pray for my dear sweet husband, who has had severe hip pain for about four months, but it has worsened in the last two weeks. His name is Val, and he is my sweetie, the joy of my life! We finally have electricity in Hunter building so we can start our beauty shop back up this week! We’re all so very glad of that! Praise the Lord for Fridays because that’s beauty shop day! Now that’s a fun day! We love our beauty shop day! Until next week, have a wonderful time in the sun and don’t forget to give someone a big hug and let them know they are special to you! God bless you all!

Tipton County and the Civil War By RUSSELL BAILEY County Historian Vicksburg continued Union forces detonated a mine full of black powder beneath the 3d Louisiana Infantry Redan on June 25. A Confederate African-American named Abraham was blown from the Redan into the air and into the Union lines. When asked how far he had traveled Abraham said “about three miles.” Federal officers estimated that he was blown 300 yards, and appeared to be unhurt. A Federal officer wrote that Abraham asked to borrow a quarter from a soldier and upon receiving a half dollar the previous air-borne Abraham took off running to spend the sum. On June 19, hundreds of Grant’s artillery fired on the Vicksburg defenses. The only Confederate response were the gunners at the Whig Office and Wyman’s Hill Batteries, the latter composed of men from Tipton County. They “pounded with shot and shell” the DeSoto levee where U. S. Marines had emplaced two cannon. The Confederate garrison of Vicksburg surrendered to Gen. U. S. Grant’s forces on July 4, 1863. The men from Tipton in the 1st Tennessee Heavy Artillery were paroled as part of Brigadier General John C. Moore's Brigade. Gettysburg In his second invasion of the North, Gen. Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia fought Gen. George G. Meade’s Union Army of the Potomac, July 1– 3, 1863 at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Lee’s 75,000 Confederates battled Meade’s 88,000 Federals to a stalemate. Losses for the Union army totaled 23,000 while the South lost 28,000 it could ill afford to lose. Lee’s wagon trains stretched for fifty miles on the retreat southward. Only a few men with Tipton County connections

DarSay Burton GreetingsI am enjoying these cooler days! In July, 84 degrees isn’t at all bad. We are blessed not to have to run the air conditioner as often, in fact, we only turn it on when it gets to feeling like, say, 105 degrees. On Tuesday afternoon in the lovely home of Jolly Corteria member Barbara Miller, the July meeting was held. President Gloria Sherrill was glad to see everyone. More fundraisers are in the future, so get ready. Barbara served the ladies a lovely repast after the meeting. President of Jamestown Community Health Organization (JCHO) Reverend Pearl Andrews,and

Hello Dear Readers: Thanks to all you folks who have told me you enjoy my writings. The paper had an early deadline due to the 4th of July, and unfortunately, I missed it. Below is the updated version of what I wrote: The other day, I went to Fred's in Munford to look at the flowers. All of the flowers were half price. I had a ball picking the best ones. I spent $20 and got $40 worth of flowers. The day before that, I had a pedicure and a manicure at a spa. It was so wonderful- I almost fell asleep while sitting in a huge vibrating black leather recliner that mas-
fought at Gettysburg. Brigadier General Cadmus M. Wilcox of Tipton commanded an Alabama Brigade and led his men into the second and third day’s actions. Wilcox’s Alabamians successfully drove Federal infantry on July 2 capturing several cannon. When reinforcements failed to come up, Wilcox ordered his men to retire. On July 3, Wilcox’s men and the Florida Brigade went in as supports for the attack on the Union center. Following the repulse of the “Pickett-PettigrewTrimble assault,” Gen. Lee met his returning shattered and heroic survivors as he sat his horse on Seminary ridge. He rode among the men rallying and encouraging the broken troops. “All this will come right in the end, he said. Wounded rebels took their hats off and cheered Gen. Lee. An English military observer witnessed General Cadmus Wilcox wearing a short round waist coat and battered straw hat, who, in tones of sadness, mingled with vexation, tell Lee about the condition of his brigade. Lee replied, “Never mind, General; all this has been my fault. It is I that have lost this fight, and you must help me out of it the best way you can." Several Confederate veterans of Gettysburg moved to Tipton following the war: Oliver J. Adair, 2d Mississippi; Houston L. Blackwell, 57th Virginia; Allen Bolling, 8th Alabama; Captain William Townes Boyd as well as Private William Townes Boyd of the 3d Virginia Cavalry; Ely Frederic Broughton, 15th Alabama; Charles Price Noell, 38th Virginia who was wounded in the foot in “Pickett’s Charge”; Frederick T. Reed and Sterling Willis Fowler of the 26th Alabama; John B. Yancey, 17th Mississippi. A veteran of the 12th Tennessee Cavalry, Leonidas Polk Marshall attended the 75th Reunion of the Blue and Gray in 1938.

saged me from my neck down my back. I was there 40 minutes. The person doing my pedicure used four hot stones that she took out of an oven to massage my feet and legs. It was sure a treat for my tired worn out feet and legs. I really enjoyed my visit, it was worth the $35. Oh, yes, after buying a load of flowers I had to go home and plant them. Because I had just received my really nice manicure, I needed some work gloves to use while planting the flowers. I have not had a beauty treatment in a long time, and I hoped it would last until Sunday for church. Well, my manicure did last until Sunday, but after seven days, my nails didn’t look so good. However, two weeks later, my toenails are still pretty.
The other Sunday at church we had Rev. Sandra Clay, guest preacher, district superintendent, Memphis Asbury District, Memphis Annual Conference. She was really good and we enjoyed her preaching. The mission team got back home safely and, last Sunday, they reported on their Guatemala adventures. The nine of them had a good experience building a home for a homeless family. Beforehand, the church raised $l4,000 for their trip.The mission team returned some monies to the church - for the next mission trip. Thanks to all who went- you made us all want to go on a mission trip… well, except a few of us who are too old to lift a brick.

New principal has Covington roots By STEVE HOLT news@covingtonleader.com CHS has a new principal to begin the 2013-14 year and he is a Charger through and through. Just a few minutes with Marcus Heaston will convince one that CHS’ new leader is all about the purple and gold in every respect. Heaston has risen quickly through the ranks to assume his new role. A 1996 Covington grad, he completed undergraduate work at UT-Martin in 2001 and began his career teaching history
and science that same year at Munford Middle School, where he was also on the football and track staff. He was promoted to assistant principal at Crestview Elementary in 2003 and remained there until 2005, completing his administrative master’s degree at Trevecca in 2004. Heaston served as an assistant principal at Munford High from 2005-08 and in the same position at CHS from 2008-12. In the past year he worked as a consultant to the county high schools out of the board
offices. “I am honored and humbled to accept this new charge,” Heaston said. “I succeed a principal who ought to have a statue erected in her honor, Peggy Barber Murdock. She moved this school ahead in more ways than can be counted. I am grateful for having served under her leadership. It is our job to continue to improve on the standards that she set.” Heaston says that the focus will be on continuing to improve ACT, English, math and science scores. Instruction will be rigorous according to Heaston. To further challenge
students, CHS is adding AP Math and English to the course offerings in the coming year. As with many other states, Tennessee schools are implementing the national common cores standards in the new year. “These new standards focus in literacy and reading comprehension," said Heaston. “While they will take time to implement, their intent is to help students to be more competitive in the workplace or in the college setting.” “This is the community’s school,” Heaston said. “The community’s life is our life. We are committed to change and to doing everything that we have to do as a staff The Munford High National HOSA Competitors were, from left, front, Lauren Agcanas, Abigail Bell, Jessica Kothe; second row, Savannah Sigler,Miracle Tibbits, Destiny Jones, Emily Brigance, third row Kayla Hawthorne, Chase Castellaw, Alex Selby and Kara Freeman.

Funeral home sponsors tour Brent Taylor, owner of Munford Funeral Homes, announced today his funeral homes will be giving away an expense paid trip to Washington, D.C. for a veteran and a guest to visit the war memorials in the nation’s capital. The eligible veteren must have served in World War II, Korean War or the Vietnam War. “The personal sacrifice and dedication of our veterans preserved our nation in the toughest of times. The veteran stood tall and sturdy. As a result, what we hold has survived and America remains free and democratic,” saidTaylor. “This point was driven home after visiting the war memorials on recent trip to Washington, D. C. with my family.” “After such a moving experience at the war memorials in Washington, I decided to honor a Tipton County, or a North Shelby County ,veteran with an Honor Tour to see how our nation has honored their sacrifice of service.” Marilyn Loeffel, vice-president of Community Relations, said, “These citizen soldiers were not seeking personal gain or a path to fame. Their country called, and they answered. It’s
a simple, patriotic response, because this community has long supported our funeral homes and cemetery, we wanted to give back by providing a veteran and a guest who may not otherwise have the opportunity a chance to tour the war memorials.” Anyone can register a veteran for the drawing by completing a nomination form and mailing to: Munford Funeral Home – Millington Chapel P. O. Box 486 Millington, TN 38053 Nomination forms may be obtained by calling or visiting either Munford Funeral Home location and speaking with a member of staff.

Church Bulletins July 22-24 Vacation Bible School will be held at Brighton Church of Christ (1650 Old Hwy. 51, across from the Brighton High School). Call 837-7600 for more information. Topics are “It’s a Blue Ribbon Life" and "The Study of the Fruits of the Spirit." ON-GOING St. Luke M.B. Church, 632 St. Luke Road, Covington, will hold its morning Bible study for adults every Wednesday at 9:30 a.m. this summer. You don't have to be a member to come. The public is invited and there is
no cost to study with us. Classes will be held at the Family Life Center. For more information, call 901-476-9746. Great Expectations Ministries, located at 2053 Hwy. 51 S in Covington, is hosting a clothing giveaway on the third Saturday of each month from 12-2 p.m. They are giving away clothing for men, women and children.

families are strengthened, lives are rescued from the addictions of the world, and souls are saved when revival comes. America has had periods of time when revival swept through the country. The Great Awakening, the Second Great Awakening, and during the Civil War large numbers of people were saved. What can we do? First, we should be praying for the Lord to forgive our sins and send the blessing of the Spirit of God. Second, we should be diligently seeking personal revival. Seeking His glory first has to be our priority. Spending time reading our Bible and in sweet fellowship with the Lord will stir our hearts. Third, we should give ourselves to the task of witnessing and soul-winning. How long has it been since you told someone how to be saved? It is our task. Government cannot bring utopia and solve all our problems. Quit thinking it can happen. It is impossible, but with God, all things are possible. A real revival will make a noticeable difference in our country and most importantly restore in the hearts of Americans the desire to honor the Lord first and foremost.

Mitchell takes over CHS hoops Went to state 13 times at Austin-East By STEVE HOLT sports@covingtonleader.com Charles Mitchell’s tenure as the head boy’s basketball coach at Covington High School has begun. “(Covington High School principal) Mr. (Marlon) Heaston did a good job of recruiting me," said Mitchell, who was hired last week. "He made me feel at home. I have had offers in West Tennessee before but something was not right each time. Covington just seems to be the right fit. I hope to be here a long time.” Mitchell knows West Tennessee basketball and the environs well, having graduated from Bolivar Central High School in 1981. Undergraduate and graduate degrees at Tennessee State and at Lincoln Memorial followed not far behind. After short stints at a private school, Clarksville and White’s Creek, Mitchell landed at Knoxville’s Austin East High School where he has been the head basketball coach for the past 21 years. “It is so hard to leave a place where you have been for so long, have invested so much time and have had such
success,” said Mitchell. The emotion was palpable as he said, “The hardest part is having to tell young kids who just don’t understand why you are leaving. All my family is here in West Tennessee. This time it was just right.” Mitchell leaves a record at AustinEast that any number of coaches would like to have. His overall record stands at 545-170. To go along with that, his teams have reached the state tournament 13 times under his guidance. Those appearances include seven in the Final Four and three championship game appearances: 1999, 2000 and 2001. The returning players from the 201213 Charger squad will get their first opportunity to spend time with their new mentor this weekend. Mitchell plans to be in the gym with his players Saturday through Monday. “This will be my first opportunity to meet the kids and see where we are.” said Mitchell. His style of play figures to suit CHS fans. “We will press from sideline to sideSEE MITCHELL, PAGE A20

Shearon hired as Covington High School softball coach By STEVE HOLT sports@covingtonleader.com Matt Shearon was recently named the new Covington High School softball coach, replacing Martha Lawler, who retired last month after serving 29 years at CHS. “I am not replacing Coach Lawler,” Shearon said. “I am just the next head coach for CHS softball. Coach Lawler’s record speaks for itself. Our intent is to continue the excellence.” A Haywood County native and Haywood High graduate, Shearon received his undergraduate degree at the University of Memphis and his Master’s in school ad-
ministration from Bethel University. He resides in Brownsville with his wife, Shanna, and children Addison and Raine. Shearon was an assistant softball coach at Haywood from 2005-08, handling the pitchers and defensive instruction duties. He also was the offensive coordinator for the Haywood Tomcats football team from 2009-10. Shearon will continue in his role as an assistant coach in the CHS football program. As for his new assignment, Shearon feels that CHS will do well and continue to be a force in state softball. “We have a solid core
returning with Boldin, Ashburn and Glenn,” he said. "We are also in a new district that is radically different for the district we just left. District 13 AA is probably one of, if not the toughest, district for softball in Tennessee. Our new league is not as strong. I am anxious to get to scheduling. We will continue to play the best from around the area including the Westviews, Dyersburgs and Gibson Counties. You improve by playing the best.”

BHS's Williams excels at nationals Ladarius Williams, a sophomore at Brighton High, pitched two games last week in Marietta, Ga., helping his summer team, the Dulins Dodgers, bring home the 2013 15u WWBA National Championship title. Williams pitched a complete game for the Dodgers in the preliminary round, giving up two hits, two walks and one earned run while striking out three in five
innings of work. The Brighton sophomore got the nod to start the championship game against the Lids Indiana Bulls Black team. Williams allowed just two hits and three walks in five innings of shutout baseball to earn the win. “I came out there just throwing strikes because I knew I had a great defense, one of the best in the world,” Williams said. “If I just got ground
balls and pop flies and let them hit it they would back me up 100 percent.” Williams helped himself out at the plate, collecting two doubles and four RBIs. “(I) just went up there not trying to do too much; not thinking about it; just swing the bat wherever it’s at,” said Williams. “I just let my offense and defense work for me.” Williams was named to the all-tournament team.
