Brighton breaks ground on renovation project By TYLER LINDSEY tlindsey@covingtonleader.com
As the time nears for Brighton’s Main Street project to get underway, Brighton mayor Jeff Scott, representative Jimmy Naifeh and county executive Jeff Huffman convened at Brighton Town Hall on Monday, Oct. 4 for a ground-breaking ceremony. The project is a joint venture of the Town of Brighton, Tipton County and the State of Tennessee. “This is a perfect example of how local, state and federal governments can come together to better the lives of citizens in this community,” said Naifeh. Obtained by Naifeh, the grant covers the expense of the project that entails a number of improvements. New pavement will be laid along with brickwork at the intersection and along the edge of the new sidewalks that will host new trees and plants. Town officials look forward to the commencement of the renovations. “We can’t wait to get started and we can’t wait to get finished,” said Scott. Mayor Scott worked with Askew Hargraves Harcourt & Associates (A2H) of Bartlett who designed the project. He negotiated a design with SEE PROJECT, PAGE A3
Wife strikes husband with vehicle By ECHO DAY eday@covingtonleader.com
COVINGTON – A woman is under investigation after she allegedly ran over her husband Monday afternoon. At approximately 12:18 p.m. on Oct. 4, deputies were dispatched to the 2700 block of Mt. Carmel Road, near Whaley Lane, after a reported hit-and-run accident involving a pedestrian. According to officials with the Tipton County Sheriff’s Office, while en route to the scene, depuV. CARRICO ties were notified a patient with injuries similar to those consistent with a hit-and-run accident had been transported to the emergency room. “Deputies determined a domestic argument ensued between the parties while they were traveling down the road,” said deputy L. CARRICO chief Donna Turner. “During the argument, Larry Carrico asked to be put out of the vehicle.” Turner said the investigation revealed Carrico, who was traveling with wife Veronica, exited the vehicle. Moments later, Veronica Carrico allegedly struck Larry Carrico with the silver 2003 Nissan Altima she was driving. Investigators believe Larry Carrico hit the front windshield and went over the top of the vehicle, Turner said. Veronica Carrico then reportedly transported her husband to Baptist Memorial Hospital-Tipton. SEE HIT, PAGE A3

Cash crops making change By TYLER LINDSEY
26,226 ACRES
tlindsey@covingtonleader.com
As temperatures last week dropped into the 50s and 60s, Tipton County citizens have no doubt been riding to and from work and around to daily errands with windows rolled down. What many have noticed scenting the fall air is cotton defoliant permeating the low-humidity, clear blue sky. Yes, that’s right. It’s cotton season. For years, Tipton County has been known as a prominently cotton producing area. But in recent years, soybean has become the county’s largest cash crop. University of Tennessee extension agent Michael Morris said, “Though cotton crops do and have done well economically in Tipton County, soybeans have take the forefront of our cash crop industry.” To be sure, cotton remains a sizeable and respected mainstay within the “agri-nomics” of Tipton County. For instance, true to a continuing trend, cotton was planted in close to 26,226 acres of farmland as opposed to around 18,948 acres of corn crops.
of cotton were planted in Tipton County in 2010, compared to 18,948 acres of corn and 79,492 acres of soybeans (source: UT Agricultural Extension Office).
So, cotton remains one of the industry’s premier incomes. However, farmers face new challenges this year growing since years past. “The biggest obstacle farmers have had to overcome this year has been a surge of palmer pigweed infesting cotton stalks,” said Morris. Truly, farmers have had to take into account financially how to deal with this pesky weed. Round-up usually takes care of the job, but apparently the weed control agent is killing everything but pigweed. As a result, is left alone, the weed would blot out essential yields in this year’s cotton crops. “Not only is this a threat on the crop,” said Morris, “but farmers are having to pay extra costs to spray for pre-emer-
gence, post-emergence and residual stages of the weed’s effects.” Naturally, many have expressed concern over the flood disaster which took place on May 1. Resting assured, major cotton farmers were not at risk due to flood damage on crop land. But corn producers had to replant their newly sown corn crops. For cotton farmers, the heat was on this summer as another hazard showed its face threatening cotton crops. Let it be known that cotton does thrive in hot, dry weather. This year’s drought lasting through the dog days of summer had somewhat more of an impact on this year’s cotton crops than did the flood. Especially causal to potential crop damage
was the heat wave Tipton County experienced during September. However, producers have hope. “Though cotton does need moisture to properly culminate,” said Morris, “the yields this year are looking healthy.” Cotton matures whether or not every bulb has opened up. With picking time coinciding with maturity, sprayers introduce an opening agent which maximizes cotton yields at the last minute after the defoliant does its job to rid the stalks of leaves. Regardless of any concerns, cotton yields are looking good for the year. The National Agricultural Statistics Service declared that 17 percent of defoliated cotton has reached maturity as opposed to the fiveyear average of 5 percent. In addition, prices are up 1.71 cents to 99.93 cents from last week. AREA EVENTS

Delfield marks silver anniversary By TIFFANY HOLLAND tholland@covingtonleader.com
Even with the national economy not in its best shape, many local companies are still going strong. The Delfield Company celebrated its 25 anniversary on Sept. 30 where employees revealed a banner thanking the community for partnering with the long-standing business through many endeavors. Employees Tracy Bryson and Willie Dyson, who have been with the company for all 25 years, pulled the banner drape. Covington Mayor David Gordon and Executive Director of the Chamber of Commerce Lee Johnston were both present for the celebration as well as other Delfield employees. The General Manager of Delfield, Charles Eaves, spoke in the ceremony on the company’s history and its continued plans for future success. “We are proud to have been a part of Covington for 25 years,”
said Eaves. “It is a great community where individuals can raise a family and Delfield has benefitted from this and the close ties with the local government, the chamber, and other local manufacturing companies. We look forward to many more successful years here.” Afterwards, everyone was treated to refreshments, but the celebration did not end there. Delfield employees also had an offsite picnic at Canale Farms in Oakland, where everyone brought their families and were treated to carnival rides, food and prizes. More than 400 people attended the picnic in the agreeable weather. Special guests also came out to this event, including Delfield retirees from all over the county. There were two memorial services held during this event. One of these was for former employee Patty Means, who had been with Delfield for 24 years until succumbing to cancer last year. She was remembered for her
many years of service and dedication to the company. Her passion was for continued education within the company. In her honor, the Patty Means Scholarship to Dyersburg State Community College in Covington for employees’ children and grandchildren was announced. Means surviving family members, including late husband Terry Means, daughters Becky Patrick and Stacy Northcott, were all present for this memorial. Also at the picnic, the first Ricky Watkins Role Model Award was given to Bill Massey for 2010. This award will be given annually to honor and individual, voted by his or her peers, who exhibits the core values of the late Ricky Watkins. These values include honor, integrity, selflessness and dedication. Watkins also lost a long battle to cancer, but his wife, Gwen, and three daughters were present for the honors.
MAFD earns 2009 Life Safety award The Munford/Atoka Fire Department has been presented with a Life Safety Achievement Award for the year 2009 by the Residential Fire Safety Institute (RFSI) in partnership with the Grinnell Mutual Reinsurance Company. The award was announced by Alan Shuman, President of the National Association of State Fire Marshals (NASFM), RFSI’s parent organization. For 19 years, the Life Safety Achievement Award has recognized local fire prevention efforts that have contributed to reducing the number of lives lost in residential fires. The Munford/Atoka Fire Department qualified for this award in year 2009 because it recorded
zero fire deaths in structures or a reduction by at least 10% during the year. In addition, the department was able to demonstrate the existence of an active and effective fire prevention program and a clear commitment to reducing the number of fires in the homes in their community. Although residential fires in the U.S. account for only 20 percent of all fires, they result in 80 percent of all fire deaths. The RFSI is committed to reducing that number. “Experience tells us that fire prevention activity and public education can significantly reduce life and property loss from residential fires”, the Residential Fire Safety Institute said. “Prevention and educa-
tion are very cost effective compared to the traditional approach of relying on fire suppression. The Life Safety Achievement Award recognizes fire departments for their fire prevention efforts and encourages them to continually improve those efforts.” The RFSI is a public interest group whose mission is to reduce residential fire deaths and injuries. The RFSI advocates the use of residential fire sprinklers, smoke alarms, carbon monoxide detectors and teaching people fire-safe behavior. The RFSI assists fire departments with implementing residential sprinkler/smoke alarm programs on a local basis. The RFSI’s partners include the United States Fire Administration, the
National Association of State Fire Marshals and private industry/associations with an interest in and commitment to residential fire safety.

Haslam, McWherter debate this weekend By TIFFANY HOLLAND tholland@covingtonleader.com
Two gubernatorial debates are going to air live on television twice this week. The first debate will be tonight on Channel 5 News at 7 p.m. and the second debate will be on Saturday, Oct. 9 on Channel 3 from 7-8 p.m. While there are 14 independent candidates on the ballot, the only two debate participants will be the Republican nominee Bill Haslam and Democratic nominee Mike McWherter. Tonight’s debate will be held
in Knoxville at the University of Tennessee campus and feature a panel of radio and television host Hallerin Hill, the Knoxville News Sentinel’s Tom Humphrey, and UT doctoral student Jodi Righter. It will be emceed by two WBIR news anchors, who will also ask questions on behalf of the audience. Saturday night’s debate on Channel 3 will be held in Memphis at WREG studios and streamed live on the WREG website. The panelist asking questions will consist of Norm Brewer, Commercial Appeal
editor Otis Standford and will be emceed by Richard Ranson and Claudia Barr. People can go to WREG.com to submit questions that the anchors will choose from to ask the gubernatorial candidates. These are the last two debates before the election on Nov. 2. There was a previous debate held on Sept. 14 in Cookeville. The plan was to have three debates in each section of the state – west, middle and east Tennessee. However, McWherter has stated previously that he agreed to
15 joint candidate appearances in various debates, candidate forums and joint-appearance events. Haslam had declined believing they were unnecessary and these three debates are the only chances to see the two candidates together, debating and speaking on the issues. Haslam is currently the mayor of Knoxville and McWherter is a businessman from Jackson whose father, Ned McWherther, was previously governor of Tennessee. The election is Nov. 2 and early voting begins Oct. 13-28.

In the U.S. House of Representatives District Eight, which covers 19 counties, the candidates are Republican nominee Stephen Fincher, Democrat Roy Herron, and Independent candidates Donn Janes and Mark J. Rawles. This is the first time that longtime incumbent John Tanner has not been in the election since he first went to office in 1988,

There is also a Constitutional Amendment for the State of Tennessee on whether “the citizens of this state shall have the personal right to hunt and fish, subject to reasonable reg-
ulations and restrictions prescribed by law. The recognition of this right does not abrogate any private or public property rights, nor does itlimit the state’s power to regulate commercial activity. Traditional manners and means may be used to take non-threatened species.” Voters will be able to vote “yes” or “no” on the amendment. The election will be on Nov. 2 with early voting beginning on Oct. 13- 28.
PROJECT
Continued from A1 A2H that would cover more area and benefit more people for the same amount of money the grant allowed. Next, after construction companies entered bids for the project, the Town of Brighton awarded B & C Construction with the project over Ford Construction and Rose Construction, among others. “It has been a pleasure to work with the county
and state through county executive Jeff Huffman and representative Jimmy Naifeh to accomplish this project for our Brighton citizens,” said Scott. Now, through Tennessee Department of Transportation, town officials await state approval of the bid before Southwest Electric begins to move the telephone poles. Approval is expected any day. After removal, part of the proj-
ect will encompass running residential lines underground while business lines will be rerouted as opposed to running over the street. When construction begins, traffic will be affected for several months. The Town of Brighton asks residents to be patient with the construction and reminds them to plan routes through town accordingly.

Divine intervention in Baton Rouge
I really wanted to write about politics this week because of the election. So I tried to figure out one of the hot topics people keep mentioning to me, and then expound on it. However, in the grand tradition of Americans, not many people were talking about political drama, they were talking about football. Therefore I feel compelled to mention what might have been the most operatic and tragic circus show of a football game I ever witnessed in Baton Rouge this past weekend. I went to cheer on the Tennessee Volunteers play Louisiana State University in Tiger Stadium in a game that was more of an emoON THE RECORD tional whirlwind than the time I TIFFANY C ARR HOLLAND saw the movie "Old Yeller.” First I went to New Orleans where I visited my friend at Tulane Law School. Of course, everyone at Tulane was from New England and had no idea it was even football season. One of them did manage to tell me that LSU keeps a live tiger in a cage on campus for $4 million a year, but then he went on to talk about how it was a waste of money and he was in PETA. I myself, thought the tiger was awesome and immediately put it on my list of things to see when at LSU. When I did get to campus, my friend and I were given a tour of the tailgating scene by a native of the land, complete with the Cajun accent. It was possibly the best tour I have ever been on since I got a midnight showing of The Louvre in Paris. We stopped at 40 different tailgates, all complete with Cajun food I’d never heard of and free drinks. And inspite of what I have heard of LSU fans, no one was hateful or mean. Of course, I was coming from Tennessee, not Ole Miss. I finally made it into the game in the UT section and when LSU’s first play resulted in a touchdown, I just nonchalantly looked over at my friend and said, “This is going to be a long game.” For those of you who were there (I saw a lot of Tipton County faces – probably because driving to Baton Rouge is actually closer than driving to UT games which are, you know, located two billion miles away near China), you got to see what happened. But basically Tennessee was winning and LSU had a last second chance for the win at the goal line and then boggled the snap. When that ball flew backwards, I cannot even describe the jubilation in the UT section. I saw someone joyously punt a coke bottle on the field. I saw mortal enemies embrace. I saw a man named “Meatloaf” pick up an elderly lady and kiss her. I saw her enjoy it and I saw her husband not care. People began to leave, floating on clouds of underdog ecstasy. Finally the vols got a break. Finally, a good win. Then God came down from the sky and said “No.” Before the sweet taste of victory had settled on my palate, the referees threw a flag and pointed out that Tennessee had too many men on the field. The number of players out there was irrelevant to LSU’s bad snap, but that meant they got another chance to score, which of course they did. Vols lose and all of this occurred in window of five minutes. I felt like I just had gotten proposed to and then some harlot in a zebra dress came up and said it was a joke and the guy was cheating on me. It must have been how Al Gore felt during his presidential election. However, in trying to be an optimist I would like to focus on the positive things for Tennessee fans this weekend: We really won that game. A two-touchdown underdog playing with more freshmen in the game than at Ole Miss frat party and LSU wins on a technicality. It is something to celebrate that the Vols weren’t blown out. And the only people who might be more irate than UT are the LSU fans who hate their coach more than a winning team should and almost rushed the field several times in order to feed him to Mike the Tiger. At least we aren’t Georgia. I don’t care if UGA is favored on Saturday. Their coach is a Vanderbilt loss away from being fired and they just lost to Colorado. Florida lost. The only good thing about the Alabama/Florida match-up was that someone had to lose it, and UF got murdered. And that is always glorious. Lane Kiffin lost. If Joseph Stalin rose from the dead and coached a football team called "The Commies" I would still cheer for them over this guy. It is just a football game. Seriously, I love it, but at the end of the day, when your team lets you down, you should just be grateful that something like a football game can upset you and you don’t have to worry about food and shelter. In fact, be glad you live in America because the rest of the world just sees football as a bunch of committee meetings interrupted with bursts of violence. And then you would have to watch soccer. Although my coworkers would disagree, I don’t know how anyone can watch a day of soccer.

Just the facts Dear editor, The fact is that Darlene Wheeler was fired because she ran against Mary Gaither for the Tipton County Clerk’s office in August. Obviously Darlene was a good employee for 21 years or she would have been let go a long time ago. In this economy, how could anyone justify firing someone when jobs are so hard to find? Mary Gaither’s reason for firing Ms. Wheeler was lack of work. Well if there was a lack of work, don’t you think the person with the least seniority would be the first to go? Is this the kind of person we need as an elected official? Think about it! Phyllis Roe Munford Looking for true Christians Dear editor, I may be writing too often. The lady at the bank and the one at the barbecue restaurant mean a lot to me.

They mention to me about my letters to the editor. This really helps to find true friends. I definitely need more true friends. There are still some real patriots and also Christians out there. I’ve found some real true friends and especially when I needed them most. I think I have an ad in this week in my favorite publication, The Leader. Clyde Rush Munford National Pregnancy and infant awareness month To The Editor, I am writing to bring awareness to an important date in the month of October. October is National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness month. There are not many people who are aware of this fact. Most of those that are aware of it are those that are tragically affected by the loss of a child. On May 4, 2006 my husband Greg and I had our second child, Abby. She had an older brother that SEE LETTERS, PAGE A5

Continued from A4 was amazed at this tiny person. We had our complete family! Mom, Dad, Son and Daughter! Then on Sept.23, 2006 Abby passed in her sleep of S.I.D.S. Our perfect family would be forever broken from that moment on. There is no greater pain in this world that even compares to losing a child. It is such an emotional pain that the body physically hurts. With that being said, there is no greater joy than other’s remembering a child that is gone, especially when it is yours. It is the only way that my daughter’s name will carry on. Abby has an older and younger brother that will never be able to play with their sister. They will only hear stories and see pictures and that is the same for many families around the world. Oct. 15 is National Pregnancy and Infant Loss

Awareness Day. Everyone is asked to light a candle at 7 p.m. in their time zone and to leave it burning for one hour. This is supposed to represent a wave of light across the world in remembrance of the children that are gone. Pink and blue ribbons tied around trees or other things in the yard and community is another symbol of remembrance. The loss of a child is often an unspoken thing among people. It is awkward and it makes people uncomfortable. But, just imagine if it was your child? Wouldn’t you want to do everything in your power to have that child thought of and remembered by as many people as possible? That is the hope of every babylost mother. Please help me bring more attention to this month and this date. In Abby’s memory, Greg and Jan Lambert Cameron and Austin Covington
First South adds 'financial' to its name First South Credit Union, in an effort to further clarify its corporate identity is adding the word “financial” to its name. “We want to ensure that our members and potential members understand that we are a full service provider of financial products and services, including but not limited to checking accounts, first and second mortgages, vehicle loans, CDs, IRAs and investments through First South Investments Services, Inc. our wholly-owned subsidiary,” said Craig Esrael, president and CEO of First South Financial Credit Union. “We can provide any kind of financial product or service needed and at a better price than most others. Plus, according to all independent rating organizations, we are one of the strongest and safest financial institutions in the entire nation and we want everyone to know that their money is safe and secure with us.” First South serves Shelby, Tipton and Fayette Counties in Tennessee and Tunica, Tate, Marshall and DeSoto Counties in Mississippi. And serving so many markets brings on increased competition and possible confusion. So it is with this in mind that First South is adding the word “financial” to its name. The board of directors, management team and many members feel that this makes the credit union’s name much more descriptive. It can clearly and quickly illustrate that First South Financial is an organization that provides banking products and services. While the signs, brochures, and receipts members receive may have a slightly different logo or name on them, the quality products, services and member service remain unchanged.

The problem with liberalism
FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH 5010 West Union, Millington, TN 38053 901-872-2264
Sunday School 9:00 am & 10:30 am
Before you start thinking that this is a political essay, let me assure you that it is not. I make no bones about being a conservative politically, but that position grows out of my personal understanding of the Bible. Let me explain. Either the Bible is exactly what it claims to be, the inspired, infallible, inerrant Word of God, or it is not. Once that is settled in one's mind and heart, then the next logical step is to read, study, and interpret the Bible as it is written, not as one would like for it to be. Years ago, a preacher made this statement, "If I can correct the Bible, then it cannot correct me." This was the predominant method of Bible interpretation amongst evangelicals for centuries. Starting in the middle 1800s and still ongoing today, a movement, a style of Biblical interpretation began to slowly take hold. Theologians called it "rationalism." Since much of it came from German theologians, hence the term is sometimes used, "German rationalism." This application of rationalism to Biblical interpretation soon spread to others disciplines as well. About this same time, Charles Darwin wrote his seminal work on evolution and
those who had chafed at the restrictions of the Bible seized upon it and modern liberalism was born. Soon men were bending the Bible to fit science. After all, we were told, science has been proven, we can see it, and we can touch it with our hands. God and the Bible on the other hand, are matters of faith. So old-time religion, simple faith in the Bible, soon was the object of ridicule of liberals. Harvard, which was started with money from a staunch Bible believer, and other schools, founded for the propagation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, were ever so subtly taken over by those who did not believe the Bible. Liberalism "stole" the mantle of respectability that it bears today, it did not build it. A major part of liberalism as applied to the Bible is that is must be interpreted by the times in which we live. Political correctness, meaning things such as "gay rights" and the unscriptural elevation of women to the pulpit, have invaded many denominations as they have failed to stick to the literal meaning of the words of the Bible. Instead the Bible is interpreted through emotion, feelings, and downright com-
promise and accommodation with the world. Here lies the link between liberal politics and liberal religion. No conservative Bible believer supports abortion. Translated into the political realm that means we cannot support politicians who do. The Bible leads us to restore the fallen brother or sister that sin has laid low, helping them to change the direction of their life. Liberalism says their choice is okay and liberal politicians want to use your tax dollars to fund whatever lifestyle someone has chosen. As conservative Bible believers, we are against sin, but are not trying to dictate how people should live. Liberal elitists have always tended to dictate to others what their life should be like. For when you quit taking the Bible literally, the step is very short to not take the Constitution as a fixed document as well. Liberalism will always be bending the Bible and the constitution to suit the day, while true, conservative belief and confidence in the documents will bend the day to meet principles.

CONGRATULATIONS! Destiny Hill, Jacob Hardaway, Bailee Moss and Peyton Caldwell were selected September STUDENTS OF THE MONTH by their teachers! These students have put forth extra eorts and shown a willingness to learn. They have had exceptional attendance and have portrayed the characteristics of good citizenship. They were chosen by their teachers as great representatives of our school. Assistant Principal Sara Gangaware congratulates them for this honor.
Crestview Bolt By SARA GANGAWARE Special to The Leader October is an important month for all of us at Crestview Middle. The nine weeks grading period ends on Oct. 5th and report cards will be issued on Oct. 21 at our first Parent-Teacher Conference night. Parents, I urge all of you to attend these conferences so you will know how your child is doing and what you can do to help your child succeed in school. You will receive your child’s TCAP results and detailed information from the State about curriculum changes and scores. We will have people on hand to explain everything to you. If you are unable to attend the conferences on Oct. 21, we will meet with you at our next conference date, Oct. 26. Never hesitate to call our office for information or to set up a meeting with your teachers. We are here to serve this community and are happy to have parental involvement in our children's education! Speaking of parental involvement, our PTO is having its membership drive during the month of October. They will have tables set up at our parent-teacher conferences and are rewarding classrooms that raise the most for their organization. Please support the CMS PTO - they are vital to our school in so many ways and we are lucky to have such a supportive group. October is Cyber Safety Month. It seems like every day we hear of another dangerous incident involving the Internet. Children especially need to be counseled and supervised when using online services. Because we value our students’ safety everywhere – including online – we will have Mr. Scottie Delashmit from the Tipton County Sheriff’s office here for parents at our first Parent-Teacher conference on Oct. 21. Please stop by the library to chat with him about this important topic! The National Honor Society (NHS) and National Junior Honor Society (NJHS) are the nation's premier organizations established to recognize outstanding high school and middle level students. More than just an honor roll, NHS and NJHS serve to honor those students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of Scholarship, Leadership, Service, Character, and Citizenship. These characteristics have been associated with membership in the organization since their beginnings in 1921 and 1929. Today, it is estimated that more than one million students participate in activities of the NHS and NJHS. NHS and NJHS chapters are found in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, many U.S. Territories, and Canada.
Chapter membership not only recognizes students for their accomplishments, but challenges them to develop further through active involvement in school activities and community service. Crestview Middle School will induct 54 new members in the CMS chapter of the National Junior Honor Society on October 7. These new inductees give us a total of 69 members in the seventh and eighth grades. Congratulations to the students and their families for this outstanding accomplishment. With the changing time and the cooling weather, many of us will spend more time inside around other people. This puts us in closer contact with each other and increases the likelihood of coming in contact with germs. Because school attendance is so important, and because we don’t want you to feel bad or be sick, we are passing along some tips from the CDC http:// www.cdc.gov/flu/protect/ preventing.htm (Centers for Disease Control) to help keep you healthy and prevent disease. 1. Talk to your doctor about getting the flu vaccine. Prevention is especially important for people at high risk for flu compli-
cations, including children. 2. Take everyday preventive actions: wash hands, avoid contact with sick people, get plenty of sleep, avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth. 3. If you feel sick or have fever, go to the doctor and see if you should take antiviral medications. These are not available over the counter, but must be prescribed by a doctor. For more information , please go to http://www. cdc.gov/flu CMS will accept donations of disinfectant wipes and disinfectant hand sanitizer. STAY HEALTHY! Eighth graders take the ACT Explore http://www. actstudent.org/explore/ tests/index.html test each year.

Hi everyone, Well, fall is in the air for sure, along with so much dust and wind. With all the dryness I figured we would have broken limbs all over the roads with such high winds. The lower temperatures have been nice. However, I don't know if we will ever see rain again. It's all in the Lord's hands. We did in fact turn some heat on early in the mornings last week. It made getting out of bed a lot easier. Charlie and I went and got our old flu shots last week. Thank goodness neither of us had any side effects. I've just got to commend our Three-Star Fire Department. We went down for the grilled chicken dinner last Saturday and it was the best chicken I have ever eaten! The quality of the meat could never be topped. I wish they would have that same chicken every week. Those men's mothers sure taught them some good cooking techniques. Byars-Hall High School The girls' class of 1970 would like to invite girls from the classes of the late '60s to the early '70s to “Wildcat Gathering” this Saturday, Oct. 9 from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Tipton County Museum located at 751 Bert Johnston Ave. Come and reminisce with

Well for those of you who had grown to hate the hot weather this summer, like my family and I, how do you like it now? It’s hard to believe that a few weeks ago records were broken with 100 degree temps. I think the weather is wonderful right now but we all know that it will not last long and it will be winter before we turn around. At least there’s one thing that can be said for the Great State of Tennessee, if you don’t like the weather just stay a few days and you will. Maybe it’s because I’m older but it seems in the past there was more time in each season. Now it seems like we have two seasons, summer and winter and those seasons pass so fast. It seems like the year 2010 just started and here we are only a couple of months away from Christmas. There are a number of birthdays in our family in the month of October. My daughter Shanna has a birthday on Oct. 12. My father John has a birthday on the 17th. Then there’s our grandson Aiden who was also born on the Oct. 17, 2008. October is going to be a busy month with all the birthdays and then Halloween. When thinking of Halloween, I think back to a time that

Greetings, Hello. We're in the second week of October, and that very special little sister of mine, Annette Burton is still telling me how I forgot to mention her August 1 birthday in my column! Well, as I told her, it happened that since the month of July ran out on the 31st, her birthday being August 1 sort of got into the last week of July. Now that still wasn't quite good enough for her suiting, and as I just learned from her that was the one week that she didn't read her paper! However, with me not knowing this first hand information from her, I, being the sweet sister that I am, made another mention of her birthday the week of August 15. She's better for it now. After all, we have too much love between us for something like forgetting birthdays. Plus everyone's always saying that out of daddy's six girls, Annette looks like me. What a doll! La Rue Albritton and her sister, Gloria Sherrill recently toured the Windy City, Chicago, on Sept. 2325. When they attended Frazier's Alumni High School Reunion held there, the girls were student of good old Frazier High, back in the day! Several of Frazier's alumni from Covington

Hello Dear Friends, Oct. 22-23 is our big fun BBQ weekend. We start cooking the whole hogs early on Friday morning Oct. 22. Friday evening and night we all come and bring snacks and watch the turning of the hogs and enjoy the smells. We will start serving Saturday at 4 p.m. till it is all gone. We will have coffee, tea, home made slaw, potato salad, baked beans and home baked pies. Where can you get all this for $7, adults, $4 for children under 12. We will have take out plates for $7.50. Apples, apples, everywhere. Our two trees have outdone themselves. We have dried apples (it only took two days to dry in 98 degree temperatures). We have frozen them, sliced and diced and made apple raisin salad, made apple sauce, cooked them in the microwave. They have been so good. And we have given many of them away. I think we are about finished picking apples. I think that we started picking them in
was much simpler. A time long ago when I was just a kid here in Burlison, Halloween was a fun time when kids could still walk the roads and ask for candy. We didn’t have to worry if anyone wanted to hurt us or not because most of them were our kin folk. Mrs. Cothran made the best popcorn caramel balls you ever put in your mouth and the Lavelles gave out the most candy. As I grew up, we boys started to roll yards and soap windows but it was all in fun. Once I even soaped the windows here at the service station where I worked knowing that I was the very one that was going to have to clean them the next morning. Later as the owner of the station I would often give out soft drinks to trick-or-treaters because I remember how thirsty we would get while trick or treating and eating the candy when I was a kid. Please be safe this Halloween. The city will be having their monthly meeting on Tuesday the 12th. Remember this meeting is open to the public and all are encouraged to attend. This will be the last meeting before we have a new council person so remember to get out and vote on November 2nd. If you have any information you would like included in future articles you can call 901-476-2683 or email me at kellumeddie@yahoo.com. Thanks for reading and have a good week.
were also in attendance. La Rue and Gloria met her daughter, Debra Elkins, now of Nashville, where Debra drove them to Chicago, where they met up with family and good friend, Bettye Reed formerly of Covington, now of Chicago. The ladies enjoyed the elegance of the Hyatt Regency in Chicago where they were treated like the Queens that they are! Enroute home on the 25th they stopped for a wonderful evening in Nashville, in Debra Elkins' lovely home. All in all they truly enjoyed their trip to the Windy City! Jamestown's mission meeting was held Tuesday at 5 p.m., now on Tuesdays, due to teacher Willie Mae Burton's doctor's appointments. Several are now in attendance regularly especially Annette Burton who has truly been bringing some great high points each week. President Mary Burton loves seeing the group grow, but she loves to remind us, “There's still room for more!� See you at Old Miller's Store this Tuesday for another wonderful meeting. We are praying for all our young men and women in the military. Their safety is always our main focus. Jessie and Gwen Cooke's son, Cory Cooke, is still aboard the USS Harry S.

Brighton gets revenge in Munford By JEFF IRELAND sports@covingtonleader.com The Munford-Brighton football game is emotionally-charged every year. This year’s version of the game, held Friday night in Munford, was no different. Brighton won convincingly, 39-2, but the game was by no means emotion free. A Munford assistant coach was ejected late in the game, there was a small scuffle among the players and the customary hand shake following the game didn’t happen. Nevertheless, both coaches chose to focus on the basics of the game, one that got out of hand quickly. Thanks to a 16-yard pass from Danny Potter to Ricky Foster and an 8-yard touchdown run by Antonio Dickerson, Brighton led 13-0 after one quarter. Munford put two points on the board moments later when an errant punt snap resulted in a safety, but Brighton kept pressing. Treyshun Gardner scored on a blocked punt, Foster returned an interception 88 yards for a touchdown and Zach Rogowski returned an interception 79 yards for a score to all but put the game out of reach. It was 39-2 at the half. Per TSSAA rules, the clock ran in the final quarters. “We were as focused as I’ve ever seen us,” said Brighton coach Will Wolfe, whose team lost to Munford last year. “We were ready to play throughout the game. The defense and the special teams were big for us.” Despite the fact that the outcome of the game was never in doubt in the second half, both teams played spiritedly. Munford advanced to the two-yard line in the closing seconds before a fumble ended the drive. Following the play there was some pushing and shoving among the players as the clock expired. “We knew they were going to get their points,” said Munford coach Matt Saunders. “We were hoping we could hold them in other areas. We weren’t able to do so.” Potter ended up completing 9 of 14 passes for 104 yards. “We were facing the leading passer in the city and we put our best corner on their receiver,” Saunders said. “When you look back, we did that somewhat. But the other scores we gave up were too much.” Brighton 39, Munford 2

The playbook isn’t the only thing Brighton quarterback Danny Potter memorizes. With a career goal to be a pastor, Potter memorizes Bible verses. There was something else he and his Cardinal team memorized: Munford 41, Brighton 35. That was the score of the 2009 game. “We have waited on this game since last year,” said Potter after the Cardinals dominated the Cougars 39-2 on Friday in Munford. “We wanted to make them relive what we did last year.” Revenge and preparation — Brighton coach Will Wolfe said his team was as ready to play a game as he has seen all season — united to give the opportunistic Cardinals their sixth win of the season in an emotional District 13-AAA game. When Ricky Foster caught a 16-yard pass from Potter to give the Cardinals (6-1) their first touchdown with 9:34 left in the first quarter, Potter knew what the result would be.
“I hate to say this, but after that first play, I knew it was basically over. The first play (the touchdown) was such a huge confidence builder,” said Potter. A 60-yard touchdown drive by the Cardinals, sparked by a 22-yard pass from Potter to Greg Starks, gave Brighton a 13-0 lead when Antonio Dickerson ran 8 yards for a score. Dickerson gained 111 of Brighton’s 132 yards rushing, with most of it coming in the first half. The final score was the halftime score. Potter completed 9 of 14 passes for 104 yards and Brighton’s defense held the Cougars (2-5) to negative four yards rushing for the game and provided three touchdowns. Scoring 26 points in the second quarter, the Cardinals scored on an 88-yard interception by Ricky Foster and a 79-yard interception by Zack Rogowski. Treyshun Gardner recovered a blocked Kale Gramling punt in the end zone for a 32-2 lead. Munford scored in the second quarter when a snap went over Brighton punter Doyle Taft in the end zone and he kicked it out. Potter threw his second touchdown pass, this one a 40-yard srike to Rujonn Glass with 6:44 left in the second quarter. The Cougars came close to scoring late in the fourth quarter. Harden, who completed 8 of 26 passes for 126 yards, ran 12 yards to the Brighton 2-yard line. “With two minutes to go we are still fighting to get points on the board,” said Munford coach Matt Saunders. “This is Munford vs. Brighton. I didn’t expect them to give up. It was not a problem getting focused.” With the turnovers and getting behind early, the Cougars were in a position they have been in before according to Saunders. “It’s the story of our season. Tonight we faced adversity early on. This team plays on momentum and when bad things happen early we have to teach them it’s a four-quarter game. We didn’t catch the breaks early.” Bragging on his team’s defense, Potter said the Cardinals exploited Munford with exotic blitzes that resulted in passes that got picked off. “At the beginning of the game, our defense played awesome,” said Potter, who has earned Saunders’ respect. “I think the world of him. He’s a great player but he’s an even better person by the way he was raised,” said Saunders. Potter’s mother, Kelly Potter, teaches at Munford. Potter told her to expect some trash talking on Monday.
TRA gets first win of season thanks to defense By JEFF IRELAND sports@covingtonleader.com After a couple of near misses, the Tipton-Rosemark Academy Rebels football team earned its first win Friday night at home. Thanks to a late touchdown and some big plays on defense, TRA defeated Rossville Christian Academy 24-20 on homecoming night. “It took a couple more weeks than I would have liked,” said TRA coach Dodd Gengenbach. “It was a big win for the kids. I believe it was their first homecoming win in four or five years.” It didn’t come easy. With 6:53 to go in the game, Rossville scored to trim the Rebels’ lead to 17-12. Following an unsuccessful onside kick by Rossville, the Rebels drove down the field and scored on a fiveyard run by Jordan Fox. Joe Scott Howard’s kick gave TRA a 24-12 lead with 1:21 left. Rossville answered with 20 seconds left to trim the lead to four, but Jordan Wilson pounced on another onside kick moments later to secure the win for TRA. TRA’s defense was opportunistic throughout. Senior Dylan Hambick had two tackles for loss and two fumble recoveries, the first of which was a touchdown in the game’s opening moments that gave the Rebels a 7-0 lead.
Rossville returned the ensuing kickoff for a touchdown to trim the lead to 7-6, but TRA’s offense picked up the slack. Keith Hamlin threw an eight-yard touchdown pass to Jordan Fox early in the second quarter to push the lead to 14-6. Early in the third quarter Howard converted a 37-yard field goal to increase a lead that TRA would never lose. Rosemark’s rushing attack was strong throughout, rolling up 219 yards. Zac Hodgins had a strong game with 102 yards on 18 carries. Keith Hamlin added 55 and Kevin Sansom chipped in with 37. Fox added 25. Hamlin, filling in at quarterback for the injured Chance Sampson, completed 9 of 13 passes for 56 yards to keep Rossville’s defense honest. By virtue of winning the league game, the Rebels (1-6, 1-2) still have a chance to make the playoffs. After a bye week, TRA will take on Fayette Academy next week. A non-league home game against Middleton follows before the season ends with a road trip to USJ in another league game. “We’re going to use the off week to get healed up,” said Dodd, who added that Sampson should be ready to go in two weeks. “If we can have a good game against Fayette Academy, we’ve still got a chance to achieve our goals … Hopefully this win will be a stepping stone for the rest of our season.”

Covington wins shootout, Williams sets record By STEVE HOLT Special to The Leader Carlos Williams had the speed and Obion Central did not have the answer last Friday as the Charger sophomore sensation set a new single game rushing record at CHS with 381 yards on 33 carries in the game in the wild 35-30 Covington win over the Rebels. Williams who scored four touchdowns in the game could have approached 500 rushing yards. He had a 74-yard TD called back in the second quarter due to an illegal procedure call. One of four by an official who when questioned could not explain why he dropped the penalty flag any of the four times. CHS was penalized 13 times in the game versus times times for Obion. The Chargers forced the rebels to punt after the opening possession and starting from their own 40 drove to the Obion one-yard line where they faced a fourth and goal. Going for the score Britt Dunn slipped across the goal line at the 2:29 mark on a busted play and Maredrecus Dyson followed with the first of his five PATs for the night to give the Chargers a 7-0 lead that they did not relinquish. Obion took over and drove to the Charger five-yard line where the defense shook the ball loose with Nathan Rogers recovering a Rebel fumble at

the seven to end the threat. Covington moved the ball from the shadow of the goal post on the ground and Williams made Obion pay breaking it to the house for a 57-yard touchdown and a 14-0 CHS lead with 7:46 remaining. The Rebels got on the board with their next possession ending in a five-yard pass from quarterback Trey Phipps to LaDevin pair marching 62 yards in 10 plays. With the PAT, the score was 14-7 with 4:30 left in the half. CHS went three and out and the Rebels appeared to be on the move with under two minutes to go when Collier Robinson intercepted Phipps at the CHS 27 with 1:37 remaining. Two plays later Williams apparent second touchdown was called back and the half ended 14-7. The teams traded scores throughout the second half giving CHS a two touchdown lead most of the time. Covington took the opening kickoff at mid-field and drove it with Williams scoring from a yard out at the 8:07 mark putting CHS up 21-7. On the strong legs of Pair who had 187 yards rushing in the game and the passing of Phipps who was 17 of 25 for 244 with one touchdown and an interception, Obion came right back to score in six plays and make it 21-14 as Pair ran it in from 15 yards out with 6:07 left in the 3rd quarter. The Chargers weren’t through in the
period. Returning the kick-off to their 34-yard line, CHS took six plays to find the end zone with Williams taking it the last 47. It was 28-14 with 2:17 left. Covington ended the period with the ball as they got their final turnover on a Detric Smith interception of a Pair pass at the Charger 37. Unable to capitalize on the turnover, CHS gave the ball back and the Rebels scored in two plays. A 35-yard pass Phipps to Ward and a 10-yard Pair scamper to the end zone and it was 28-21 with 9:25 on the clock. On the next possession, CHS got the ball at the 35 after an out of bounds kick-off. It took seven plays, including two penalties against CHS, but Williams got his last touchdown of the night on a 25-yard burst to make it 35-21 with 6:21 left. It took Obion only two minutes to close the gap. Running and passing, the Rebels covered 61 yards in six plays with Jake Garrigan scoring from a yard out to make it 35-28 with 4:29 left. The final drama played out on the Covington side of the 50-yard line. Obion kicked the ball short and CHS muffed it allowing the Rebels to recover the kick at the Charger 35 with 4:20 remaining in the game. A drive ensued that brought the Rebels to fourth and goal at the Charger six where a pass at the goal line fell incomplete giving CHS the ball. On fourth and two with four seconds
remaining, Jake Morris stepped out of the back of the end zone as time expired for a safety making the score 35-30. Confusion then ensued. The officials required that CHS continue the game on an un-timed play with a free kick. A check of the rules indicates that such was not required. It could have spelled disaster for the Chargers but fortunately did not. “We defended well at times and at times, we didn’t,” said Charger head coach Marty Wheeler. “ Our tackling was poor and we had some blown coverages in the secondary that kept them in the game. It doesn’t take away from the fact that Pair is a really good running back.” Wheeler continued “On the offensive side, I thought we played for four quarters for the first time this year. The line did a good job sustaining blocks and picking up blitzes. They allowed our backs to get to the second level and you see what they did. We had 449 yards on 49 carries. Dunn did a good job with the play action pass. It opened up the run. They changed when we had success and we adjusted well.” CHS had 503 yards of total offense to 431 for Obion Co. CHS is 4-3 for the season and 2-1 in Region 7 play. Covington and Haywood kickoff at Covington Athletic Field at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow night.

BHS men, MHS women win regional By STEVE HENDRICKSON Special to The Leader The Brighton High School men’s golf team coached by first year Coach Kim Greer captured the championship trophy in the Division I Region 7 AAA for the fourth straight year. The Division I Region 7 AAA 18-hole event hosted the Brighton, Munford, Bartlett, Bolton, Arlington, and Hardin County high school boys and girls golf teams and various individual district qualifiers in the West Tenn. area this year. According to Greer, the tourney was “a really great team win for our boys considering the chilly, blustery conditions. The course played extremely difficult and it all boiled down to that old saying ‘drive for show and putt for dough’. Senior Tyler Hendrickson played unbelievably well under the conditions shooting 73 to finish as the tournament’s low medalist and all the kids from each team in the tournament played well. It was a hard fought victory and now it’s on to State in Manchester next week.” For the men, Hendrickson overcame
the wind and slick greens to win low medalist tournament honors. “I just kept grinding and grinding,” said the first-time Region 7 AAA champ. “It was kind of cold and the pin placements were tough, but my putting gave me the edge to win.” Arlington senior Vinnie Bleau shot 77 to finish second, BHS freshman Logan Watkins (78) for third and Hardin County freshman Ben Carroll (79), rounded out the boys top four spots in the tournament. Munford High’s Jake Etherington (80) and Easton Lavelle (81) will make the trip to State as well, playing as two of the four low individuals from the region. For the women, MHS seniors Amanda Levin (89) and Madison Willis (87) teamed up to win the Lady Cougars first Division I Region 7 AAA Golf Championship in several years. “It was a really tough day,” both Lady Cougars said. “We gave it our best and it feels really great to be headed to State.” The girls top four individuals traveling to State are Hali Smith (HC) 86, Britt Sanford (BHS) 87, Sarah Holland (HC) 98, and Kara Glover (BHS) 100.
BHS, MHS play to a tie By JEFF IRELAND sports@covingtonleader.com When Tipton County soccer teams hook up, like Munford and Brighton, sometimes weird things happen. That was certainly the case Monday afternoon. Four goals were scored and Munford players were the last ones to touch the ball on all four. Unfortunately for the Munford faithful, two of the touches resulted in own goals and the Tipton County rivals finished in a 2-2 deadlock. As a result, Munford and Brighton finished in a tie for second in the district. On Monday a coin toss was held to settle the tie. “I called heads, in God we trust,” Munford coach Kyle Selby said. The coin came up tails. Brighton will host Munford in two weeks, with the winner facing Jackson North Side or Dyer County in the dis-
trict title game. Munford’s two goals came from Maggie Johnson, one on a penalty kick. Brighton’s first goal came when Hannah Whitefoot took a cornerkick and Terry Reyes got a touch that went off a Munford player. Brighton’s second goal was scored when Becky Marks pushed Munford keeper Alex Selby and the ball went in off a Munford player. In the game’s final two minutes, Hannah Whitefoot made a penalty kick, but it was not allowed because the referee said a Brighton player had a foot on the penalty box line. She missed the following shot. Munford plays Bartlett on Friday to wrap the regular season. “We didn’t quit,” Selby said. “We’ve got to play ‘em now.” “We just lacked a little focus,” said Brighton coach Richard Vandergrift. “If we can improve that, we’ll be in good shape.”
Chiefs win four straight By MARIO BROWN Special to The Leader The Tipton County Chiefs football junior division had action on Saturday at Poplar Park in Munford. The Chiefs hosted conference rival, the Egypt Pharaohs. The Chiefs opened the game with an onside kick that Aaron Alston for the Chiefs. On the first play, Chiefs’ running back Alston took the hand off from TJ Kluttz for a 29 yard run for the first touchdown of the game. During the Chiefs’ seconds series, after Will Hankins moved the ball down the field, Alston drove the ball in from the six for another touchdown. The Chiefs went for a two-point conversion and converted, making it 14-0 still in the first quarter. The score remained this way until the third quarter when Kluttz had a quarterback sneak from the one-yard line. Egypt had an excellent drive late in the fourth quarter by getting down to the eight-yard line, but it was stalled by the tough defense from the Chiefs. The top defensive players were Alston, with four tackles and a fumble recovery, Demetrius Fisson with 3.5 tackles and Marcus Webb with three tackles. Time ended with a score of 20-0. The Chiefs are now 4-1 in their conference. They have three games remaining and will be playing their homecoming game on Saturday, Oct. 16 against the Whitehaven Raiders. The game will begin at 9 a.m. The Chiefs are associated with the Shelby Youth Sports program and have four different age group division leagues, with ages of 6-13 year-olds.

Dunlap
Kathy Keiter â&#x20AC;˘ 476-7014 Hello everyone! Sure hope youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ready for some fish and hush puppies and all the trimmings! Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to be cooking up a bunch Saturday night at the First Baptist Church in Covington, out ay their Family Life Center, starting at about 5 p.m. We would love to have yâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;all come if you can. This is our annual fundraiser where we fry fish and sit around and listen to wonderful Christian music. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m really looking forward to it this year, as last year it was so cold, but the good Lord has taken care of that this year! We have three resident birthdays this month. The first one is Mr. Max Gibbs, his special day is Monday the 11th. Then thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ms. Jane Sherrod on Tuesday the 12th. And last but certainly not least is Ms. Mary M. Moffatt on Wednesday the 20th. Happy birthday you three special people, we love
Mt. Carmel
Elaine Watkins â&#x20AC;˘ 476-7093 Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cold and I love it! It was 42 degrees when I called at 7:23 with a little frost this morning and yesterday morning. Fall is now here. I had a good birthday last Tuesday. Debbie Otts took me to the cute little new cafe on the Square and we had a very good strawberry/spinach salad. Very nice - try it! Then I went over to Elizabeth and Justinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and kept Lyla while they slept so they would feel like going for Japanese food in Memphis that night, and they did. They joined me, James and Clint and we all had fun. Lyla sat for her first time in a high chair - sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s getting so big! Wednesday my dad, Kenneth Weir, took me to lunch and we car-shopped. We had a big time. Then I car shopped Thursday and Friday and yesterday. Think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just going to
put off looking any more till after the cruise, which is this Saturday, since Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be gone all next week! Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to buy a new vehicle and leave it for a week! Friday I fixed chili and all the dressings and apple pie for the road crew thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s working on widening Highway 14. I think about 9 or 10 of them showed up, plus James, Clint and Mitch Rogers. I just sat in the car and let them polish it all off. It was kind of fun. Always wanted to have a restaurant - this one was out of my car in Cintâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s front yard, under the shade trees! Friday night was our Church of Christ Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s First Friday Dinner and Movie Night. Only three of us went, Mary Joyce Coughlan, Laura Craft, and me, so we skipped the dinner and just met in Atoka for the movie, â&#x20AC;&#x153;You Againâ&#x20AC;? which was hilarious! I love Betty White! We had fun anyway, and had popcorn for supper (works for me!). Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll try it
www.covingtonleader.com you and pray your days will be as many more as you have had already! No staff birthdays this month, but I will tell everyone what a wonderful staff I have! They are so loving and kind to my folks! It takes special people to do all they do out here and they are special! Some jobs you just have to be fitted for, and I can say with complete confidence, every one of my staff are most fitted for being a house director at Dunlap! Thanks staff! I would like to say thank you to Holly Grove Church missions team and KFC (Kids for Christ) for coming this past Saturday doing all kinds of work here on campus! The place looks great, all the trimmings and such yâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;all did were extremely needed! Thanks Brad and Bonnie for all your guidance with the kids and also thanks to Richard Delk for coming and being so faithful to Dunlap. Also to Lisa Morgan for organizing this whole thing! Sometimes I just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what we would do if it werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t for our community people coming together and again the first Friday in November. I spent Saturday putting all my fall and Halloween decorations out. I love Fall! As I mentioned the cruise is this Saturday. We will fly to New York City and get on the boat that afternoon. We will go to Boston, Portland, St. John, New Brunswick, Canada and Halifax, Nova Scotia before we get back to New York Saturday morning. We have a guide taking us around the city that day before we go to the airport later that afternoon. Then itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s back to Memphis and Covington! I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait! Our bags canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t weigh over 50 pounds so I packed everything Sunday and weighed my suitcase. OK! And I have all my toiletries in bottles and cans under three ounces, all in one ziptop plastic quart-size bag, one per person! Flying is very different than when we flew back in 1999 to San Diego! Pre-9/11. In preparation for said trip I went shopping yester-
day and when I walked out of our local discount store I saw nurses giving flu shots, so I got one. That was convenient! Hope Collins, Jane Petree, Roy Randolph, Bonnie and Frelan Holbrook, John Evans III, Hazel Wright, Larry Whaley II, Eric and Shirley Jones and Kenneth Mason, who will have surgery on the 12th, all remain on our prayer list, and many others outside our congregation. Sympathy is extended to the Devon Baskin family and friends. They are in my prayers. Welcome back to the fold to Jason, Rachel, Evan and Matthew Coats! Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve missed yâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;all! We will have a Youth Rally on Saturday, Oct. 9th, with registration starting at 9 a.m. The title is, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Win it in a Minute or Lose it for Eternity.â&#x20AC;? A barbeque dinner will be after services on Sunday night, Oct. 10! 10-10-10 - neat date! The Birthday Party at
giving us a helping hand! We really praise the Lord for all that everyone does for us here! Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most definitely a community effort! Hopefully everyone knows about Dunlap, but if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let me tell you! We are non-profit, in other words, if we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have people in our rooms we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pay the bills and the staff. So I covet your prayers for us that we get some more precious little folks in here and fill these rooms up! We have three rooms and one suite. The suites are so nice. They are large enough for a couple. Or if you prefer, they are also just right for one, then youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have all the space you need or want! Please come out and take a tour of our facility, I would love to show you around! Until next week, please, do something kind and positive for people you love or just know! You know what your mom used to tell you, â&#x20AC;&#x153;A little kindness goes a long way!â&#x20AC;? Have a blessed week. ter, Natalee Kate, 8 pounds, 1 ounce, born on Oct. 1st to Matthew and Janine Williams! Yay again!
