GERMANTOWN CHARITY HORSE SHOW

Two-time winner 16-yearold Nashville resident takes second at Grand Prix

By Jennifer Pignolet pignolet@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2372

Christian Heineking won his third Germantown Charity Horse Show Grand Prix last Saturday, his second in two years, as the ive-day show came to a close.

Heineking, of Fort Worth, Texas, rode Joshua Tabor’s horse “Cluny” through two clear rounds to claim irst place in the $25,000 event. The pair also won the $15,000 Welcome Stakes event June 4.

Heineking, 34, said he has only been paired with Cluny for six weeks, “so I’m pretty excited about him.”

Heineking rode a total of three horses in the Grand Prix, two of which made it through the irst round without penalties, called faults, and into the second round, called the jump of.

Of the 23 entries, ive horses made it to the jump of.

Nashville native Louise Graves, riding her horse Zavira, set the bar high with a clear round in 42 seconds.

Heineking rode Cluny to a clear round in 38 seconds.

He had the chance to beat himself with his second horse, but knocked down one of the jumps. Graves, who is only 16 years old, took home second place.

Germantown native Michael Tokaruk did not make the jump of but came in seventh place.

Heineking said he thought the course was technical but fair, and said he always enjoys coming to the Germantown show. This was his fourth appearance in the Grand Prix.

“The people are very friendly,” the native of Germany said. “It’s a nice place to come.”

Show president Jimmy Chancellor said the Grand Prix attracted 23 riders from across the country, including several young riders. Four of the entries were teenagers. Two additional riders withdrew right before the class was set to begin.

Chancellor said the rain the last few days may

The last thing Brady Thornbury expected June 6 was to be center stage holding onto a Best of the Preps award. Or that his grandfather, John, would beat him to the trophy.

“I didn’t expect this, and I wasn’t even sure I was going to get here,” said Thornbury, a goalkeeper who led Collierville to the state Class AAA inals in his senior season.

“My girlfriend’s family and I left Disney World at 4:45 this morning and drove all day.

Her dad was going 100 mph through the rain trying to get me here. I got to the house at 6:45, showered, got dressed in the car and got here 20 minutes late. So we went to the balcony.”

John Thornbury was downstairs “and had no idea Brady was here” when he heard his grandson’s name called. He igured somebody had better get the trophy, but as he stepped on stage the shouts of “Brady’s HERE!” came from the rafters of The Duncan-Williams Performance Hall at Germantown Performing Arts Center.

Still it took some time.

“I got lost once on my way down,” Brady said. “But it’s a cool thing. My Grandfather’s done a lot of cool things.”

Equally surprised to be onstage, together, were St. Agnes’ Caroline Cook and ECS’ Kate Jamison, who shared the Private Schools Female Athlete of the Year award — the irst tie at that level in the BOP’s 45-year history.

The Collierville Relay for Life event has been in existence since 1997 and has been one of the largest such fundraising events in the State of Tennessee. In 2012 their eforts raised in excess of $31,000.

This fundraiser is not only about the people who have lost their battle with cancer, this efort is largely in support of those who won that battle.

The hundreds of people who turned out to raise money to walk and to support the fundraising efort proved that Collierville does care. The fundraising efort continues through the end of August.

In the News COLLIERVILLE

Man arrested over meth lab near high school

Neighbors shocked by secret drug operation

By Lela Garlington garlington@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2349

Oicials are still reeling that a Collierville man was arrested recently for having a meth lab in his home within sight of Collierville High.

Except for a meth lab bust in 2009, Collierville police rarely

see such operations. In fact, Memphis police made this arrest.

Michael M. Rainey, 42, was set to appear in court at 201 Poplar on June 10 on a host of charges for using and making methamphetamine.

“It concerns me that there’s one (meth lab) in the town much less that close” to the town’s high school, Collierville Supt. John Aitken said. The home is .2 of a mile from CHS. Police also found stolen property at the home, two all-terrain

vehicles and a boat valued at $5,000. Collierville Police have returned one ATV — valued at $5,000 — to its owner.

According to a court aidavit, a Memphis detective reviewing online log books tracking overthe-counter purchases of sinus medicines containing pseudoephedrine found Rainey bought the medicines 33 times between Feb. 15, 2012, and May 30, 2014.

On June 4, Memphis police waited until Rainey left his home.

They stopped him for speeding

on Byhalia Road. Rainey allowed police to search his vehicle. They found four blue pills that were Alprazolam, a Schedule 4 narcotic, and a capsule of Adderall, a Schedule 2 narcotic, in a pill bottle with the label scratched of.

The aidavit said Rainey told police he had meth labs at his home, and he gave them permission to search the home.

In the Winwood Farms subdivision just of Byhalia and Frank roads, neighbors either declined to talk about the situation or

claimed they were unaware of Rainey’s arrest in the 600 block of Winlawn. The area is illed with one- and two-story homes with trimmed and landscaped lawns.

Much of the cooking of the meth was done in plastic containers as police listed drain cleaner, ammonium nitrate and three onepot bottles used in what is commonly called shake-and-bake operations. Based on what Collierville police told him, Joyner said, “It was not an active meth lab but had been one in the past.”

700 battle arthritis Walkers raise funds to fight disease

By Katie Fretland fretland@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2785

Members of the Memphis Grizzlies’ drumline, the Grizzline, banged a lively beat beneath the warm sun last Saturday morning at Shelby Farms to celebrate the 700 people who gathered to walk for a cure for arthritis.

Individuals, couples and families pushing strollers and walking dogs traversed the wooded trails in an efort to raise awareness and money to fund research.

Signs lined pathways at the park reading “arthritis is unacceptable!” and “arthritis doesn’t discriminate!”

Organizer Michelle Dooner, director of development and services for the Arthritis Foundation in Memphis, said the fundraising goal of $125,000 was surpassed.

Cedric Isom, 41, of Arlington, walked alongside his wife, Leslie, 43. Isom said he has had arthritis

for ive years.

“It runs in my family,” he said. “I don’t let it stop me.”

Hank Pellegrin, 50, and his wife, Cristie, 47, brought their children and their dogs, a golden retriever puppy named Vito and a border collie mix named Matt.

The Pellegrins work for medical device companies that manufacture replacements for arthritic joints.

“It’s a great day for family, a great day for team building for our companies and it raises awareness,” Cristie Pellegrin said.

“It supports our mission,” Hank Pellegrin said. “And it’s fun.”

Mary Hand, 62, of Cordova, who teaches arthritis rehabilitation classes to seniors, ran an educational booth. “(Arthritis) is a life-changing thing,” she said.

Arthritis is an inlammation of the joints and there are more than 100 types, according to the Arthritis Foundation. More than 50 mil-

lion adults and 300,000 children are afected by the disease.

Arlene Lorimer, 67, of Millington, was sitting with her 4-year-old granddaughter, Bradyn Lorimer, who has arthritis.

Bradyn’s parents noticed her limping last year and took her to doctors.

“It was really hard the last year,” Lorimer said. On some mornings she could not stand or walk. “Little children run and play and she would sit and draw. We would do puzzles.”

But Bradyn has improved with treatment, Lorimer said.

“It’s been a challenge, but she’s a sweetheart and she’s a sassy little sweetheart now that she feels better,” Lorimer said.

Through the event, Lorimer said her family met other families who have children with arthritis.

“It’s great to see this kind of support,” Lorimer said.

Riding high Eads girls’ team performs at GCHS

By Jennifer Pignolet pignolet@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2372

In the afternoon heat, Ruth Eiren’s cowgirl hat slides down the bridge of her nose as she canters her horse Lillie around the outdoor ring. If she has a hard time seeing where she’s going, it doesn’t seem to bother her.

No matter how far her hat falls, her ear-to-ear smile and deep dimples are always visible.

It’s the smile one might expect on any 14-year-old girl in her element. But for the girl known as Ruthie, that smile was diicult for many years.

When Ruthie was 5 years old, other students at a school in New Zealand attacked her, leaving her with hundreds of stitches and in deep depression.

“I was so used to hiding in my room where no one would ind me,” she said.

After moving to the United States, her mother brought Ruthie to the Old West Special Trails riding facility in Eads. The barn ofers riding lessons for kids and adults and also provides special needs and inancial aid programs. The horses and the other girls at the barn helped dig Ruthie out of her depression.

“Riding horses healed me,” she said.

Saturday night, Ruthie and the 11

other girls between 12 and 18 years old in the barn’s Grand Entry Team will perform at the Germantown Charity Horse Show following the Grand Prix.

Their western-style riding routine is a combination of drill team and synchronized riding. They each have a partner they watch throughout the routine to keep everyone going at the same pace. The performance has a patriotic and country-western theme with cowgirl hats and lags.

Debbie Cooley, along with her husband, Danny Cooley, owns the barn and trains the girls. Debbie Cooley’s goal is never to be the best at competition but to give the girls a fun outlet.

“Riding helps every single girl,” she said. “These horses build their conidence and make them feel better when they leave. And that’s all of our jobs.”

It’s a job for which Cooley had to ight. She tries to ind sponsors for all the kids who can’t aford riding lessons, but no child is turned away. Danny Cooley works construction jobs to keep the barn going. He believes it’s worth it to give the kids a safe place to spend time when not in school.

Several of the girls joke about times they tried to sleep over in the barn and aren’t exaggerating when they say they are there every day.

The team performs at shows around the region, but this will be their irst performance at the Germantown show.

“Since we’ll be in our hometown, we’ll have a much larger crowd coming for us,” James said.

At the height of her equestrian career, Olympic gold medalist Melanie Smith Taylor knew she and her beloved horse, Calypso, could beat anyone in the world.

Ego wasn’t driving that notion. She knew the work she put in and her relationship with Calypso. She also had the ribbons and trophies to support her conidence.

In a sport where a common question is: “Doesn’t the horse do most of the work?”, Taylor, a Germantown native, knows more than anyone how much work a rider must do.

Taylor conveyed her experiences and knowledge last weekend by providing color commentary for the Grand Prix event at the Germantown Charity Horse Show.

“There’s a lot that goes into it, a lot of technical aspects to it, so just helping people understand those pieces,” Taylor said.

She explained how a rider plans a route to certain jumps and the challenges a course of jumps presents.

The Grand Prix was the last major event of the ive-day show, and drew elite riders from across the country to compete for a share of a $25,000 prize. Riders had to direct their horse over a course of jumps, most over ive feet high, in a certain amount of time.

Announcing also allows Taylor to give back to the show that launched her into the world of competition.

NIKKI BOERTMAN/THE COMMERCIAL APPEAL

Melanie Smith Taylor (center) visits with friends (from left) Becky Watts, Phyllis Walther, Ray Walther and Katy Deyo during the Germantown Charity Horse Show sponsor party. Taylor brought her years of Olympics-level experience to the show’s Grand Prix event as color commentator.

Taylor was 5 years old, living in Germantown and helping her mother with her training barn when she rode in the show’s costume class.

“It was just such a big deal to get ready for the Germantown show because they had great big trophies, and it was just so exciting,” Taylor said.

She showed in Germantown through her teens before moving to Connecticut for full-time training with the best in the nation. She competed internationally and qualiied for the 1980 Olympic team. With the U.S. boycott of the games, Taylor and her team were left to wait another four years.

“It was such a disappointment because you don’t always have the right horse at the right time, and you’re lucky if you make it to one Olympics,” she said.

“But I was lucky enough to make it four years later and have a great horse.”

She was the only member of the 1980 team to re-

turn in 1984. The team won the irst gold for the United States in show jumping. Every Olympics since, except Athens in 2004, Taylor has been on the sidelines or in the NBC studios providing commentary for the games.

Horse show officials were excited to have Taylor’s expertise and experience, show publicity chairwoman Wanda Chancellor said. She said she hoped Taylor’s presence helped make the show world more accessible to those unfamiliar with the sport.

“We can draw in the horse people, but we really try hard to draw in the spectators,” Chancellor said, adding.

Taylor said the Germantown show is a great event for people who have never watched a horse show. “It’s still a hometown show and it’s still so fun to come and sit on the bleachers in the evening and see old friends and watch the classes,” Taylor said. “It’s just fun.

It’s just sort of an old-timey country show feeling.”

CULTURAL EXCHANGE

SUMMER CAMPS

Young Einsteins Camp Invention lets kids create, build ideas

Au pairs ‘exchange meal party’ is a big win for participants

By Kelcie Phillips Special to The Weekly

By Kim Odom Special to The Weekly

Innovative, creative, energizing, active and hands-on are all words used by Connie Caldwell to describe Camp Invention, which was held at Crosswind Elementary.

In its 10th year at the school in Collierville, Caldwell, who is the camp director, said the national acclaimed program is going better than ever. For the irst time the school reached 110 participants, the maximum allowed to register for Camp Invention.

This year’s national camp theme is “Morphed!� This summer, schools throughout the nation will divide campers into ive groups and rotate the youngsters from station to station where they will explore the concept of morphing through a wide variety of angles — from creating their own motorized vehicles to ways our senses can morph into bionic powers.

Throughout the camp, participants were morphed through an innovated week of designing, inventing and tinkering while engaged in various hands-on problem solving activities like taking apart old radios, VCRs and other devices to build and create an epic Pinbug, a pinball machine with an insect theme.

They were challenged to ind materials inside the machinery that would help create bumpers, lippers, launchers and win the Pinbug jackpot. Other activities included Super Go, where campers built morphing vehicles, tunnels and ramps. On the last day of camp, they youngsters raced their vehicles in the Super Go Road Rally. Everyday there was something more challenging than the day before.

Crosswind Elementary student Tommy Daniels was glad

This year’s Morphed-themed Camp Invention took student participants on an adventure of innovative thinking. In the Super Go station, students built morphing vehicles that operate on land, in water and underwater.

Tommy Daniels and his classmates explored the dynamic realm of the five senses on a bionic adventure during the Amplified program.

to be at Camp Invention versus a sport camp or community day camp. “It (Camp Invention) allows you to do things your way,� said the rising fourth grader. “At Camp Invention, you get to show and build your ideas and show what you know.�

Daniels added that he wants to be a modern day Albert Einstein and says he already has some good ideas about a future portal that would replace buses and transport people.

Camp Invention is open to irst-grade students through those entering sixth grade at area schools ofering the camp.

Caldwell said, “This is the age where they are most excited — that wanderlust is still there.

Things still excite them.�

Under her direction, Caldwell has the help of an assistant director, ive instructors

who are teachers at Crosswind, 10 leadership interns, who are high school students, along with three leadership interns who were student teachers during the school year and graduates of University of Memphis.

As a second-grade teacher, Caldwell has an obvious love for science, adventure and possibility that has led the way for her as the director of Camp Invention at the school for eight years.

She was an instructor the irst two years. Her hope for ofering the program at Crosswind is that after a week of innovative thinking and problem solving, campers go home encouraged to be creative. She said, “The hope is the creativity, the love of learning, the love of exploring, and to go on and later possibly become an engineer or do something where they keep thinking outside of the box.�

If you are like me you have found yourself at times questioning “What should I make for dinner tonight?� Then thinking, why don’t I run by the Hope Kitchen and pick something up? Perhaps Katie’s Kitchen is closer so you make a pit stop for one of the casseroles on your way home from work. My girlfriends and I had those same thoughts therefore we decided to create our own “meal exchange� night. We each prepared six of the same dishes, met at one of our homes, enjoyed dessert and then divided up the meals between us.

It worked beautifully and our families enjoyed a different home cooked meal for an entire week, while none of us were stuck in the kitchen cooking each and every night.

Each month I meet with a group of Au Pair Care au pairs where we enjoy activities such as Barbecue Fest, walking in the Germantown Parade and even playing the beloved southern dice game Bunco.

While brainstorming ideas for upcoming events, it dawned on me that I should host a meal exchange party but with a cultural twist.

My event evolved into a cultural meal exchange party with each au pair preparing a meal from her home country that would feed six people. Once everyone arrived at my Germantown home, the ladies wrote down the meal they brought and numbered them. Elena from Macedonia brought a traditional village meal made of rice, chicken and cream of mushroom soup and Emily

from China prepared a dish that she called “big dumplings� which were dumplings stufed with chicken and vegetables. Natalia from Brazil brought a traditional carrot cake. When I asked her why she chose to prepare a dessert as her meal, she replied, “Many Brazilians enjoy dessert so much that we eat it instead of dinner�. We both laughed and decided dessert is always better irst.

After enjoying each other’s company for the evening, each au pair drew a number which designated the meal she would take home to her host family. The plan was for each host family and au pair to experience a meal from a country that was diferent from where their own au pair currently living with them and caring for their children is from. My family was fortunate enough to share homemade cheese tortilla’s prepared by Angelie from Costa Rica. The tortillas were fabulous, while my spaghetti was enjoyed by the host family of Emily from China.

We all agreed this monthly event was a huge success and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing the enthusiasm shared by the au pairs as they explained their preparations, their traditional food customs and their excitement over the anticipated pleasure of sharing their new meal with the family and children whom they care for with love each day.

Flight lands most, leaves a few in the air

The steak light includes one of the best dishes at the restaurant: An elk chop in a Kahlua glaze, served with a lush truled macaroni and cheese with mushrooms (center plate).

FLIGHT

biggs@commercialappeal.com 901-529-5223

Flight is a popular place. The concept is great: Small plates, choices for combining already made for you to keep it simple. The location is ideal for foot traic, at the corner of Monroe and South Main, and there’s a valet so you don’t have to look for a parking spot Downtown if you want to take advantage of it.

And the food is mostly, though not uniformly, excellent.

Flights of wine are nothing new, but it’s always been fun to try new wines this way. Instead of one glass of wine, a light brings you (typically) three, served in about a 2-ounce pour. You drink from the lightest to the heartiest and get to enjoy three tastes without paying for three full glasses of wine, or of taking in the alcohol of three full glasses.

At Flight, the concept expands not only to liquor but to food. Get a salad light and you have three small salads to try instead of one large one. Same with soup, with appetizers, entrees, and dessert. Why order a steak when you can have a steak light? Shrimp and grits when you can also get a lobster-biscuit dish and scallops?

What if you want a bit of each?

You’re in luck, because at Flight you can mix and match too. You can have mahi mahi, elk chop and chicken and wales, if that’s what loats your culinary boat. If you’re not in the mood for small plates, you can order any entree full size, and if you’re a light eater, you can order just one small plate instead of a trio.

The menu, when you combine all the choices, is large. Be sure you don’t overlook the elk chop at dinner; it’s hard to believe that anyone who likes red meat won’t love it.

Elk is very low in fat, even lower than chicken, yet the hearty meat is similar in texture to velvety lamb chops. It’s a very red meat, not the slightest bit gamy, and served here with a sweet Kahlua glaze on a soft nest of mac and cheese with trule oil and mushrooms.

It is a lovely dish that comes with one warning: If you don’t eat meat cooked medium-rare or less, don’t order it.

Served just a bit under medium-rare, it was lush and as described, but elk is tough if overcooked.

It’s part of the steak light at dinner, which also features a ilet that is good.

It’s tender and tasty here because of the bordelaise sauce pooled around

the mashed Yukon Gold potatoes. The third course is the chef’s cut of the day, which I believe was a couple of small pieces of rib-eye steak, judging by the tough stringiness of the cut and the server’s comment that she was told it was “prime rib.”

The shrimp and grits on the seafood light was excellent, spicy and creamy.

The lobster biscuit and gravy came in second; the sea scallop Benedict, a distant third.

Dessert followed the same pattern for me — it was easy to rate irst, a close second and third. (though my co-diner loved all three). We mixed and matched a bit on the inal course, substituting one chocolate dish for the cheesecake in the traditional lineup that included a creme brulee and Key lime pie.

Creme brulee is my favorite dessert, and this one could not have been better (well, only if it had been bigger, though it was appropriately sized). The custard was excellent, luxurious with that deceptive feeling of lightness, sweet and perfectly ofset by the bittersweet crisp of burnt sugar on top. The Key lime was over the top, thick and rich and served with a scoop of tart Key lime sorbet.

The third plate was a brownie wrapped in phyllo dough, served with a warm chocolate sauce and a scoop of ice cream. The phyllo was annoying, soggy and papery under the sauce, just a big mess to eat. But the lavor was intensely chocolate and the vanilla ice cream very good.

I’ve eaten lunch at Flight twice recently and thoroughly enjoyed it both

times. The daily home-cooking special changes and I was lucky enough to be there on a day when fried chicken was ofered and it was great. So was the fried okra, sliced lengthwise, crisp and salty. I returned, after that decadent meal, for a light of salads.

I could eat the strawberry salad every day. There’s a sweetness in the aged balsamic vinegar and in the berries, but this is nothing like those cloying fruitdotted green salads I avoid at all costs.

Served with toasted almonds and tangy shavings of Beemster goat cheese, this salad is full of contrasting lavors that blend beautifully.

The Cobb salad, even in the small plate version, is hearty enough for a meal. It’s so full of bacon, avocado, egg and blue cheese that I didn’t even notice the chicken was missing. I did notice that the Santa Fe grilled chicken salad was missing half its title ingredient and pointed it out to my server. He, in turn, informed me that the chicken was also missing from my Cobb salad, and he delivered plenty of grilled slices for both.

The New Orleans light at lunch was very good — a seafood po’boy served with a nice plate of redish étoufée and a lovely dark gumbo.

Flight is a pretty place, clubby inside but lightened up because of large windows. There’s a small patio, nice when the weather is pretty. It’s an ambitious restaurant that works when it delivers, but with laws that could be easily ixed.

Over three meals, I encountered service errors three times.

A big deal? Maybe not, but when a dinner sets you back about the same amount as a top-tier cable/Internet package and lasts only one hour, 15 minutes, it should be irst class.

The “bones” of a deceased beech tree becomes a sculptural accent in the garden of Dina and Brad Martin. Their garden is one of five that will be open Saturday as part of the Through Our Garden Gates tour sponsored by Memphis Area Master Gardeners.

Masterwork tour

By Christine Arpe Gang Special to The Commercial Appeal

W

hen Dina Martin observed her birthday last Saturday, hundreds of guests she never met visited her garden, one of ive on the “Through Our Garden Gates” tour sponsored by Memphis Area Master Gardeners.

“It will be a celebration of the garden and the hard work that went into creating it,” Martin said before the event.

She and her husband, Brad Martin, built their Scottish-style manor home near the Memphis Pink Palace Museum seven years ago.

“People said we were crazy to build on 4 acres, but I’m an ‘out-of-my-mind’ gardener so I love it,” said Martin, who completed her Master Gardening training through University of Tennessee Extension in 2001.

Martin consulted with garden designer Tom Pellett and Dale Skaggs, director of horticulture at Dixon Gallery and Gardens, in choosing some 100 small to mediumsized trees, including lowering cherries for the understory of the mature shade trees already there.

When one of her favorite shade trees died, she devised a way of preserving the beech’s presence for a few more years.

She and Pellett came up with a plan to save a portion of the beech’s trunk and some of its branches. Some other limbs serve as supports, much like the lying buttresses of Gothic church architecture.

The structure, which is illuminated at night, was painted with Rhino Shield, a tough exterior coating.

Martin invests in perennials, including natives and shrubs like boxwood of many sizes and shapes, azaleas and bottlebrush buckeyes. She plants only a few annuals each year.

“Outside the gate to the property is a formal space where a plethora of petite versions of large perennials thrives. Among them are beebalm, lambs ears, conelowers, several ornamental grasses and boxwood.

In a bed near the house, colonies of bletia or native orchids and oakleaf hydrangeas thrive along with several Empress of China dogwoods, a small evergreen variety with lowers similar to those of the kousa dogwood.

As visitors approach the house, they will walk through iron gates to reach the enclosed motor court, which is also a play zone with a basketball hoop.

Through a gate leading to the back yard, visitors can look up and see the white lacecap lowers of Moonlight, a climbing hydrangea about six years old.

Nearby a mass planting of Walker’s Low catmint in a quadrangular arrangement of beds is aglow with lavender-blue lowers.

It’s a perennial she uses in several areas for its trouble-free mounds of aromatic gray-green leaves and spiky lowers that will have some repeat lowers until frost if sheared back after the irst bloom.

Demonstrations were ofered at each garden, including dish gardens, leaf casting, terrariums, garden safety, propagation, hypertufa and growing roses, irises, dafodils and African violets. Go to memphismastergardeners.org for more information.

In addition to the garden of Dina and Brad Martin at 410 Goodwyn, the other open gardens were: ■ The garden of Suzy Manley, 4525 Barield, featuring a waterfall emptying into a swimming pool, terraces, dry creek beds to improve drainage and plants for sun and shade, many of them gleaned from the gardens of her mother, sister and friends.

moisture-loving plants.

Because a big magnolia casts deep shade on the area, Martin chose hostas with chartreuse leaves to brighten it.

Around this time each year, street corners throughout Memphis and the ’burbs get more colorful — from signs advertising garage sales, not from lora and fauna. For avid treasure hunters, it’s an exciting season.

I’ve always been a fan of trash-to-treasure. Finding great pieces takes work and so can getting them ready to reuse, but to me the beneits of recycled furniture and accessories make it worth the efort. Not only is it the epitome of green design, but the right “found object” can also add character and interest to a space.

By that I mean any space; these days, eclectic is the buzzword in home style.

Even a high-end, stylish home beneits from a blend of styles and price points. I know many designers who mix antique shop and estate sale inds with trade-exclusive pieces.

The question is, where’s the best place to shop?

Garage and estate sales, Craigslist and other online swap meets, lea markets, thrift shops, antiques stores — all of these resources offer their own pros and cons.

My own favorite inds have come from vintage markets and secondhand shops, but I’ve been in great spaces decorated largely with items scored on Craigslist.

The key with any of these sources is knowing when to buy and when to walk away.

For this I turn to expert treasure hunter and hobby decorator Amber Zinn. Almost every piece in Zinn’s Cordova home came from a garage sale, Craigslist or some sort of bargain bin.

“There may be a few pieces that I actually paid decent money for,” Zinn said, laughing. “I can literally go through my house and point and say, ‘Garage sale, garage sale, Craigslist, garage sale, free.’”

Among her proudest inds is her small, round breakfast room table, which Zinn scored last summer on Craigslist for $40. After restaining the top and spray painting the pedestal base, she paired it with two wicker chairs she also bought on Craigslist and two chairs she already owned. She painted the existing chairs the same creamy white as the table’s base.

Here are a few tips from Zinn on scoring great inds and making them work in your space: Look for shapes: When Zinn visits garage sales or resale websites, she looks past a piece’s inish and studies its underlying shape. “You can’t get bogged down with, ‘This has scratches on it or this is an ugly color or this has ugly handles on it.’ You can ix all of that.”

Buy what you love: This mantra works as well for secondhand shopping as it does in a conventional store.

When Zinn spies a piece that catches her eye, she buys it — sometimes not knowing where in her house it will land or what it might have to replace. “If I like it, I get it, take it home and ind where I can make it work.” Garage sale prices make that philosophy feasible, she added.

Keep an open mind: Zinn hardly ever heads out on expedition to ind a speciic piece secondhand.

Prep in advance: Garage sales tend to ofer the best deals, but they’re also the most work-intensive venue to navigate. Zinn uses sale ads to make a list, which she then organizes by location to form her Saturday-morning strategy.

Community JUNIOR FISHING RODEO

Great catches More than 200 show up for annual event

By Larry Rea Special to The Weekly

Talk about brotherly love.

Griin Davis of Germantown caught enough catish, including a 7.4-pounder, to win his division at the recent 14th Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency’s Mid-South Junior Fishing Rodeo at Johnson Road Park in Germantown If Griin’s last name sounds familiar, it should.

His brother, Maddox, was the rodeo’s grand champion in 2013.

And guess who was cheering his brother on in 2014? That’s right — Maddox, who even though he didn’t have a great day of ishing was there to pull for his little brother.

“Maddox was into Griin catching ish,” said their mom, Kim. “He showed a true sportsmanship. He was glad Griin was catching ish, even if he wasn’t.”

There was a lot of teamwork at the 2014 MSJFR, which was won by Montana Simons, 11, who caught 15 catish and ive bream. She gave her grandfather, Mike Mathenia, credit for her claiming the grand championship.

“She just got in a groove catching ish, especially all those catish, but we knew we’d better keep the bream, too,” Mathenia said, noting that “every ish counts” in the rodeo.

Montana, a rising sixth grader at

Treadwell Middle School, won a bike and a cap autographed by legendary angler Bill Dance, who helped distribute prizes after the rodeo ended. She and her immediate family also won a three-day, two-night ishing trip to Blue Bank Resort on Reelfoot Lake courtesy of resort owner Mike Hayes, a longtime rodeo supporter.

About 200 youth ages 6-12 participated in the MSJFR, which is sponsored by the TWRA’s Region 1 and hosted by the Germantown Parks and Recreation Department. Points are awarded for each ish caught, including ive for catish and two for bream.

More than 1,500 pounds of catish were stocked in the parks’ two lakes.

Montana shared the spotlight with Ward Simmons, 9, a rising fourth grader at St. Louis Catholic School whose entry card was drawn to receive a lifetime Tennessee hunting and ishing license, a prize donated each year by Jackie Welch of Germantown-based Welch Realty.

Simmons didn’t catch a ish, but he won a prize worth $810, according to his age. He learned about the ishing rodeo through his Cub Scout Pack at school, according to his dad, Sheperd Simmons.

“The youth director at our church was at the rodeo and when he learned that Ward had won the lifetime license he told him he’d just won the biggest prize,” Sheperd’s dad said. “It’s all amazing.”

So amazing that Ward’s dad igures he’ll have to buy a license, now that his

Although ishing was the highlight of the rodeo, several lucky anglers took home bikes they won as door prizes.

Bill Dance congratulates Griin Davis for winning his age division. Last year, Griin’s brother, Maddox (left) was the rodeo’s grand champion.

Griin Davis was the winner in his age division at the recent Junior Fishing Rodeo at Johnson Road Park in Germantown. His catch included a 7.4 pound catish.

son has one. In fact, it may mean that Ward’s brother and two sisters may end up buying licenses, too.

“You know that’s one of the major reasons we do something like this,” said Dave Rizzuto, the TWRA Region 1 isheries biologist. “It’s a spinof. We

get a youth at a rodeo and they tell someone else about it ... and, eventually, we hope, everybody in the family will buy a license.”

The TWRA hosted 20 youth ishing rodeos on June 7.

TWRA isheries chief Bobby Wilson, a former Region 1 isheries biologist, attended the rodeo at Johnson Road Lake. So did Bill Cox of Collierville, a member of the TWRA’s Fish and Wildlife Commission.

“I put this on my calendar every year,” Cox said.

So does Dance, who came to the rodeo after spending several days at the Legends of Golf outing hosted by Springield, Mo. based Bass Pro Shops.

Warm up to Fargo You betcha: Humble, chic North Dakota city surprises with art, style

By Lynn Freehill-Maye Special to The Washington Post

orth Dakota was literally the last state in the union that I had reason to see. I had visited all 49 others. But the chance to cross of the 50th state before a milestone birthday had my always-game little sister and me pulling into Fargo’s squat brick downtown on a spring Friday.

We weren’t sure what lay ahead. We’d deliberately avoided watching “Fargo,” the Coen brothers’ 1996 black comedy that remains many Americans’ only cultural touch point for North Dakota (and its lat accent). Now, though, avoiding that popculture reference has gotten even harder. The new FX show “Fargo,” starring Billy Bob Thornton and based on the movie, premiered in April. National curiosity about what’s there has picked up along with it.

N

The blank we’d drawn about North Dakota was replaced with sleek prairie art and design as we checked into the Hotel Donaldson. For months, I’d been asking anyone I knew from the upper Midwest what I should see in Fargo.

The recommendations that followed were weak, until a friend of a friend, North Dakota State architecture alum Tim Bungert, swore that the Hotel Donaldson was world-class. “There are some awesome changes happening in downtown Fargo,” he said, “and the HoDo is right at the heart of it all.”

We owe him hugely. The HoDo, as locals call it, set the tone for our stay.

To our surprise and soon-to-follow delight, it primed us for a weekend of sophisticated design and art in this city of 100,000.

With the HoDo (and its similarly dubbed restaurant), local entrepreneur Karen Stoker made a trendsetting $7 million investment in Fargo’s downtown. That was 15 years ago, back when the area was blighted by panhandlers and hourly-rate motels. Undaunted, Stoker started carving a restored Odd Fellows Lodge into her boutique hotel. Today the bedding is luxurious, the speakers are Bose, the good-night trules are house-made, and the bathroom tiles are heated.

What’s more, Stoker had each of the hotel’s 17 rooms designed by a Great Plains artist. Minnesota-based Mike Marth had decorated our Room 13 with nails and other found objects in rusty earth tones. We’d be seeing more of his work later in galleries and museums.

The HoDo’s showstopper is its “sky prairie,” a rooftop bar framed by trellises and tall grass, with the most scenic hot tub in town. Not only does the hot tub work year-round, but as we learned later that night, the staf will also keep it open late on request.

In the meantime, feeling less than fresh after the three-hour drive from Minneapolis, we wanted a drink. The sun eased away behind the hotel’s stylish neon sign and downtown Fargo beyond. The setup was cosmopolitan. So were the cocktails, featuring ingredients such as rhubarb vodka, fresh-squeezed orange juice and ginger simple syrup.

Naturally, we toasted to North Dakota and the number 50. Our waitress seemed slightly confused yet unsurprised when we explained that it was my inal state to visit. “A lot of people say that,” she said. “I don’t know why.”

North Dakota’s undeserved underrating becomes even clearer at the nearby Plains Art Museum. The 56,000-squarefoot building used to be a warehouse for the tractor company International Harvester. Now it’s looded with light across clean white walls and wooden beams.

The spacey “North Dakota Mural” by major pop artist James Rosenquist, a Grand Forks native, is set of by a threestory atrium.

In the museum’s collection, Andy Warhol’s “Four Jackies” sits between “Kiva Rest” by Native American Luiseño Fritz Scholder and “New Age Fancy Dancer II” by Star Wallowing Bull, a Chippewa.

Blocks away, downtown shops ofer everything from neon wedge sneakers at boutique Lot 2029 to 19th-century irearms at Frontier Americana of Fargo. An arts highlight is the gallery Ecce.

All poured concrete, exposed brick and stark walls, it’s been called more Manhattan than Midwest. Gallery founder Mark Weiler invites yoga classes to be held there, too.

Over at the Hjemkomst Center, beautiful craft testiies to the grit of North Dakota’s Scandinavian descendants.

The cultural center is technically in Minnesota, just across the Red River in next-door Moorhead. But it’s still within

JoHN BoRGE

A replica of a Viking ship was built by guidance counselor Robert Asp, who wanted to honor his Norwegian heritage. Asp died soon after his initial voyage, and his children sailed it through the Great Lakes to New York and on to Norway. It now resides on permanent display at the Hjemkomst Center.

IF YOU GO TO FARGO, NORTH DAKOTA Where to stay: ■ Hotel Donaldson 101 N. Broadway 701-478-1000 hoteldonaldson.com Boutique hotel with complimentary oferings such as baked goods for breakfast and a daily wine-andcheese hour. Rooms from $199.

James Rosenquist’s North Dakota Mural welcomes visitors to a former machine shed that is now the sleek Plains Art Museum in Fargo.

a half-mile walk of the HoDo, a walk that takes visitors through a riverside park en route.

The story behind the Hjemkomst Center is storybook. In 1971, guidance counselor Robert Asp decided to replicate a Viking ship to honor his Norwegian heritage — but he developed leukemia soon after. The town pitched in over six years to help build his dream.

Asp inally got to sail his ship on Lake Superior before dying four months later.

After their father’s death, Asp’s children and a few professional Norwegian crew members sailed the ship 6,000 miles. They loated through the Great Lakes to New York and then on to Norway. Now the 76-foot-long, 63-foot-high Hjemkomst is on permanent indoor display.

In back of the Hjemkomst Center is an equally ambitious Norwegian craftsman’s project, the cedar-and-pine Hopperstad Stave Church. Guy Paulson, a North Dakota State biochemistry professor, spent ive years carving this fullscale replica of a wooden church that

dates from 1140 back in Vik, Norway.

Each of Paulson’s 25,000 impressive hand-carved wooden shingles had to be beveled and pointed at the ends.

Still, the shingles pale in comparison to the spectacular interior, where Paulson carved Norway pine in the Urness style, complex Viking patterns of intertwined dragons, plants and animals.

All this art and design necessitate refueling with excellent food. Artsy types frequent Mezzaluna, a local classic that serves high-end cuisine among 6-foot silver clamshell banquettes, an original pressed-tin ceiling and candlelight in a restored 1917 oice building.

Executive chef Eric Watson’s local bison meatloaf is rich. Even more perfect, though, are his garlic-and-asiago tater tots. Comforting and Midwestern, their fried-potato sizzle takes me back to childhood, to my elementary school cafeteria. But our lunch ladies never infused theirs with ine aged cheese or irresistible garlic. Somehow, these tater tots are just like Fargo itself: still humble, but sophisticated, too.

Sports 2014 FEDEX ST. JUDE CLASSIC

Crane awakens for wire-to-wire victory

By Phil Stukenborg stukenborg@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2543

PHOTOS BY BRANDON DILL/SPECIAL TO THE COMMERCIAL APPEAL

Some winners pose on stage for photos after the 45th annual Pepsi Best of the Preps awards show last Friday. Family and friends of student athletes packed the Germantown Performing Arts Center for the event

PREPS

“A lot of great names have won this award and gone on to great careers,” Oklahoma-bound Hirschman said. “That’s what makes it special for me.”

Doing it all was MUS’ Harrison Williams, who repeated as track athlete of the year and added male athlete of the year honors after collecting the state decathlon and a boatload of individual titles at the recent Spring Fling.

It was another huge night for MUS athletes and coaches. The Owls took home 11 awards, repeating as the Large Private School and overall Boys champions.

Houston had a big haul with 10 awards, including its 16th straight Shelby Suburban overall team title. Senior track star Katie Tarver earned the Sonny Winters Sportsmanship Award and basketball player Sasha Sobolev and volleyball player Emily Richardson swept the Scholar-Athlete awards. Also, Kelsey

from 1 each other in the pentathlon, but Kate does more things. I mainly do distance,” said Cook, a threetime state track champion and four-time top-ive inisher in cross country who also played basketball.

Jamison was a state pentathlon runner-up as a junior and also starred in basketball and soccer.

“It’s fun (sharing the award). It’s nerve-wracking when you’re nominated and your name doesn’t get called,” she said.

Making the on-stage trip for the second straight year were two-time state 100- and 200-meter champ Maia McCoy of Whitehaven, and graduating threetime state Division 2-A golf champ Grant Hirschman from St. George’s. Also, Katie Kelsoe of MHEA won her second straight BOP swimming award.

MUS senior Walker Sims, Boys Tennis Player of the Year, receives his award from David Boyd during the 45th annual Pepsi Best of the Preps award ceremony.

Pearce was named the Girls Soccer Player of the Year.

St. Agnes won the Girls overall title and six awards, including the Albert C. Dunning Award, which went to Constance Connolly, a volleyball player who successfully fought a yearlong battle against stomach cancer and is back playing club ball this spring.

St. George’s won the Small Private School title.

The Gryphons also had three individual winners in Grant Hirschman (golf), Wil Barton (swimming) and Dean Brown (Private Schools scholar-athlete).

Collierville athletes took home two additional awards, senior Alexa Brainard for girls cross country and sophomore Bayleigh Wisher in softball.

He tossed and turned last Saturday night, unable to get more than a few hours of sleep. Ben Crane held a four-stroke lead in the rain-plagued FedEx St. Jude Classic with 30 holes to play and couldn’t ind the peace and serenity he needed to unwind.

“I got maybe an hourand-half of sleep,” Crane said. “I woke up for two hours. All I was doing was being nervous. I was thinking, ‘How do I slow my heart down?’ I was so nervous, so excited.”

The mental calmness he found so elusive late last Saturday night and early last Sunday returned as he walked back on the course at TPC Southwind. During the inal round of the $5.8 million PGA Tour event, Crane found the fairways and greens as comfortable as a pillow-top bed.

Although he watched his four-stroke advantage shrink to one and even though he failed to make a birdie in the 29 holes he played tee-to-green last Sunday, the Texan and soon-to-be Tennessean never lost faith. Or the lead.

Crane used a conservative closing-round 3-overpar 73 to inish at 10-under 270 for a one-stroke victory over Troy Merritt.

Crane, 38, led wire-towire to become the irst to accomplish the feat at the FESJC since Lee Westwood in 2010. He also became the irst player on the PGA Tour to win without a inal-round birdie since Justin Leonard in 2005, also at TPC Southwind.

“I don’t think I’ve ever led wire to wire,” Crane said. “That’s very diicult to do. But, man, is it fun.”

Following a season in which he was limited with back problems — and uncertain at one point he’d play any golf this year — Crane found himself in a mild state of disbelief after Sunday’s victory, the ifth of his career and irst in three years.

He outlasted a deep, talented ield to collect a $1.044 million prize and the conidence to play at the level he once did.

Crane opened the fourth round at midmorning with a three-stroke cushion that was trimmed to one after he bogeyed No. 9. Merritt, playing one group ahead of Crane, remained one back until he bogeyed 15. Merritt missed a three-foot putt for par on the hole and never got any closer until Crane played the 18th in conservative fashion.

Aware he had a twostroke lead at 18, Crane aimed a hybrid approach at the right bunker after hitting his drive into the right rough about 190 yards from the pin.

“That’s exactly where I wanted it,” he said. “I felt I could get it up on the green within 15 feet and two-putt for the win. So the strategy worked out perfect.”

After having missed the cut in four of the past ive tournaments Crane said he didn’t envision his fortune making such a dramatic turn.

“If someone had said, ‘Hey, you can inish 30th this week, will you take it?’ All day, all day. I’ll take that and run, so irst place is amazing.”

Outdoors

So-called ‘trash’ species hold high value for some When I was a kid, about 12 or 13 years old, a bunch of us were gathered at a little lake near my home in Alabama, grilling, talking and ishing for carp along the shoreline.

Since carp were known for sometimes yanking rod-and-reels from the forked sticks we used as rod holders — and since he was more into fellowship than ishing that day — my grandfather’s friend, Hubert Isbell, had his Zebco One tucked safely beside him with no hook in the water. But his granddaughter, Stephanie, kept pestering to use it until he inally gave in.

Hubert’s wife, Ruth, agreed to watch the rod to keep it from ending up in the lake. But when a carp doubled the rod over in the forked stick and we all

BRYAN BRASHER OUTDOORS

shouted at her to grab it, she looked up the shoreline like she thought we were pointing at a deer or a bird. I took of running toward the rod, but I reached the shoreline just in time to see it shoot into the water, leaving only a trail of bubbles behind.

Ruth slinked up the bank toward Hubert and offered a sincere, “I’m sorry.”

Hubert’s reply still stands as one of the most comical moments I’ve ever

experienced outdoors.

“There ain’t no need in worrying about it,” he said.

“It was just the best one I had.”

Several people who’ve heard me tell that story through the years have suggested I should change the details to say we were ishing for catish instead of a species that so many consider nothing but a trash ish.

But I’ve never been hung up on appearances when it comes to ishing. If it pulls, I’ll ish for it.

I realize that’s not the prevailing attitude during an age when tournaments are held weekly for bass, crappie and catish. But I do feel sorry sometimes for people who totally overlook certain species of ish because they know

there’s no chance they’ll ever help them in a tournament or because they don’t make for the best eating.

My friends and I spent thousands of hours ishing for carp when I was younger. These were native common carp that usually topped out at 20 pounds — not the Asian variety that grows to 60 and 70 pounds — but they were still sometimes more than you could handle on a rod-and-reel.

I’ve caught tons of them, and there were days when I caught more pounds of ish on one cast than any bass isherman on the lake did all day long.

Did we have anything worth having when I was done?

No. But if you’ll keep a check on local bass tournament standings, you’ll

see that most tournament anglers don’t either when the day’s over — and they haven’t had nearly as much fun as we did with those carp.

In the headwaters of Wilson Lake, just below Wheeler Dam on the Tennessee River, I’ve caught as many as 13 species in one day of live-bait ishing.

A lot of people ish over there just for the smallmouth bass, striped bass and hybrids. But if I’m releasing ish anyway — and that’s usually the case — I value the white bass, catish and drum just as much as the others.

Using ribbon lures for gar, ishing oxbow swamps for bowfin and trolling multi-hook rigs for white and yellow bass during the dog days of summer when

nothing else is biting are all things I’ve enjoyed. The last time I was at Reelfoot Lake, I heard some people talking about snagging for bufalo — the ish, not the animal — and I think that sounds like fun, too.

I understand it takes a lot of time and efort to be successful on these ultracompetitive tournament circuits these days. But don’t let the desire to deposit a check cause you to overlook ishing for other species that ofer little beyond pure fun.

You won’t have to worry about whether you’ve got more total weight than all the other boats on the lake.

And best of all, you’ll have a boat load of fun on your own schedule without having to pay an entry fee.

F

or a few moments, Tommy White of Cordova and Adam Hopper of Bartlett thought they had tied into the ish of a lifetime while stripe ishing on the afternoon of May 30 in the tailrace below Pickwick Landing Dam. The gigantic ish took a 6-inch swim bait in the boils at the base of the dam and ran so hard for the irst two or three minutes that White had to chase it with the boat to keep it from emptying all of the line of Hopper’s reel.

Both anglers irst thought they had tied into a striped bass that would weigh 30 pounds or better. But they soon realized it was something diferent — and after a 30-minute ight, they hoisted a 70-pound bighead carp into the boat.

“It was foul-hooked in its bottom dorsal in, so it was just an accident that we caught it,” White said. “It tore some serious drag for about 10-15 seconds. Adam works out all the time, and he had trouble lifting it.”

Since Asian carp are ilter feeders that eat mainly zooplankton, they’re almost impossible to catch on a hook and a line. They won’t bite artiicial lures, and they even turn up their noses at old standbys like minnows and worms.

Besides accidental hookings like the one Hopper and White made last week, there are only two ways to do battle with them on a rod-and-reel — and they both require a little creativity.

Memphis resident Ron Wong is an avid angler and co-host of the weekly radio show “Outdoors with Larry Rea” on WMCAM 790. Every time the region experiences heavy rainfall like it did this week, he ishes for Asian carp in the 250-acre private lake near his home.

He uses a 7-foot bass rod, a reel equipped with 65-poundtest braided line, a one-ounce sinker and a 7/0 treble hook.

There’s no bait involved.

“Those ish like to feed on zooplankton in heavy current,” Wong said. “So every time a big rain comes and creates some current in the lake, there will be a lot of carp working in the current. All you have to do is cast the rig into the current and give it a big snatch.”

The technique, which is known as “snatching” or “snagging,” is legal on most reservoirs in Tennessee as

long as the catch is limited to rough ish like carp and drum.

Tennessee law says nongame ish may be taken without limit, but all game ish, sturgeon and alligator gar are of limits. Catish, paddleish and skipjack can be caught and kept according to local limits.

There are several reasons Wong would like to see more people start doing more snagging for Asian carp.

“For one thing, it’s a lot of fun,” Wong said. “I always use that 65-pound braid with no backing on the reel because, if you hook a 40-pounder, it’ll strip nearly all the line of your reel before you can get it turned around.”

Wong and the people he’s taught how to use the tech-

dred pounds of ish in a single day when the ishing is right.

never found their way into the wild in the Mid-South, Wong believes every one that is removed from local waters is a step in the right direction.

“They’re working on some ways to process them into food for shipping overseas and to turn them into pet food,” Wong said. “If that ever becomes a reality, the commercial ishermen will start taking a lot of them. But for now, anglers are really the only thing standing between our local waters and a complete takeover by these ish — and I think we should keep every one we’re lucky enough to catch.”

Other ways to catch Asian carp include bow ishing — using a bow and arrow that’s equipped to a special rod-andreel that allows the ish to be battled after it’s shot — and simply driving a boat through a school of the ish and allowing their natural jumping ability to do the work for you.

Contrary to popular belief, Wong said some people do enjoy eating them.

But most people, including White and Hopper, place little value on them once the ight is over.

“It was a freak,” White said.

“We didn’t know exactly what it was. After all that ight, we just threw it back.”

Leadership team encourages students to ‘Leave a Legacy’

By Virginia Dawson Special to The Weekly

Throughout this past academic year, members of the Tara Oaks Elementary Student Leadership team devoted a great deal of time and energy to leave their mark at the school.

At the beginning of the school year, the ifth graders under the leadership of PTA representative Kerry Johnson and Tara Oaks School counselor Rebecca Matthews were challenged to “Leave a Legacy� in the form of a group project.

The Student Leadership team was busy this year, organizing several fundraising projects which beneitted local charities and their school. Along the way, they developed leadership skills and the ability to work as team.

Over the holidays, the Student Leadership team organized a giving campaign to beneit three nonproit organizations.

The entire school participated in the effort.

For each dollar donated, students www.commercialappeal.com wrote their names on ornament stickers and placed them on giant whimsical paper trees placed throughout the school.

Several thousand ornaments adorned the halls to show support for three outstanding charities, as voted on by student government. Of the $2,500 raised, half of the donations were given to the Collierville Angel Tree, 25 percent went to the Red Cross Philippines Relief Fund and 25 percent went to the Collierville Animal Shelter.

Inspired to “Leave a Legacy,� student leaders came up with the idea to operate
