Historic beginning Opening bells ring in new era as new municipal schools welcome students

By Clay Bailey bailey@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2393

After decades of desire and years of legal wrangling, six municipal school systems opened Monday — along with Shelby County Schools and the Achievement School District — in the most radical revamping of the local educational landscape in recent memory.

The ringing of opening bells that began about 7 a.m. ushered in a half dozen smaller school districts in Arlington, Bartlett, Collierville, Germantown Lakeland and Millington. With the migration of thousands of students from SCS to the municipal districts, the county system, now serving Memphis and the unincorporated areas of Shelby County, will note a decrease in enrollment also.

On July 27, the Collierville Board of Mayor and Aldermen recognized Collierville Police Department’s Lt. Norm Dixon with his 25 year service pin.

An area resident since 1965, Dixon graduated Magna cum Laude from then Memphis State University and began a career in retail management.

He joined the Collierville Police Department in 1989 as a commissioned oicer and his ongoing career with Collierville included time in the uniform patrol division as a ield training oicer distinguished by his high level of DUI Enforcement.

Following his promotion to the rank of lieutenant in 2000, he worked in the special operations division. Dixon is now serving as ield commander on evening and midnight shifts in the uniform patrol division.

After being congratulated by each member of the board, Dixon commented, “It has been a real honor to serve this community for 25 years.”

In the News GERMANTOWN

After-school care programs are expanding High demand driving need for expansion

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

With enrollment exceeding expectations in the Germantown Municipal School District, the city is expanding its afterschool care programs at the district’s three elementary schools.

The parks and recreation de-

partment, which will run the REACH program at Farmington, Dogwood and Riverdale elementaries, has more than 190 student. Dogwood will also ofer a before-school care program because of its 9 a.m. start time.

REACH stands for Recreation-Education-Art-Community-Health.

Parks and recreation director Pam Beasley said her staf anticipated about 120 to 150 students in the program. When they had to put students on a

waiting list, Beasley said they worked quickly to add staf and resources.

“At some of the sites, we almost doubled what had been done in the past,” Beasley said.

This is the irst year the city has ofered a daily after-school program in addition to its enrichment oferings. Students who sign up for REACH will be able to do both the enrichment courses, like martial arts or a foreign language when they are ofered through the school

year, and can attend the daily educational and recreational programs at their schools.

The program pays for itself through fees that can be charged on a daily, monthly or yearly basis. Beasley said the cost works out to about $11 per day.

She said she is able to grow the program as much as needed, at least until they reach the space capacity of the rooms they are able to use.

The city hired most of the people to work the program last

month, but kept a database of additional available personnel.

Beasley said her staf reached out to those people to ofer them positions when they had a wait list.

“We’ve been able to accommodate all the people who have registered,” she said.

There is still space available, but parents need to register ahead of time with the parks department. There will be no way to sign children up at the schools.

SCHOOLS wandering halls looking for their irst class, buses swarming along streets and trickling into the schools entrances well after start times.

“There is no normal for irst day,” said John McDonald, principal of the new Bartlett Ninth Grade Academy.

The start of classes is the dawning of a new education coniguration.

Bartlett Mayor Keith McDonald has continually called the new arrangement “historic” because municipal schools systems were not allowed in Tennessee for decades. Early Monday morning, Collierville Schools board member Wright Cox, son of longtime former town Mayor Herman Cox, snapped a picture of his father’s grave.

“I told him: ‘You dreamed of Collierville having its own school system. Well, here we go.

Today’s the irst day,’” Cox said as he stood outside Schilling Middle sharing the image of his shadow hitting his father’s tombstone.

All of the districts avoided an opening-day headache when drivers for Durham School Services, which has the transportation contract for bus service, reached an agreement last Friday for a 30-day extension to the current contract with its drivers.

Collierville Supt. John Aitken rolled out of bed around 4:30 a.m. to monitor the bus lot behind Collierville Middle.

At Germantown Municipal Schools, Supt. Jason Manuel said a few buses were delayed, but several didn’t have as many students on them.

“A lot of parents choose to drive the irst day because they want to have that moment of dropping of, something special,” he said.

Board member Linda Fisher, who greeted students at Houston High, said a few students got on the wrong bus ending up at Houston instead of Germantown High. She said the buses were marked only with Durham Services, and the students got on the irst bus they saw.

“They aren’t labeled,” she said. “That is a little bit of an issue.”

Manuel said the buses are supposed to have signs in the front window. reporters Lela Garlington and Jennifer Pignolet contributed to this story.

“For the irst time in our organizational life, we are now able to present a wide-ranging performance season as we have been doing with our innovative, four-season education programs,” says McCleary. “This expansion is in line with our initial strategic plan, and it allows us to present important, all-new productions and projects in three distinct geographies for our patrons.

Floating a notion Swim lessons touted as a potential lifesaver for infants

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

Germantown mom Sunny Dufey inds it gutwrenching to hear her 16-month-old son, Baylor, crying “Mama” as he coughs and momentarily gags on water during his 10-minute survival swim lessons.

Still, it’s a price she is willing to pay.

Drowning is the second-leading cause of death for children ages 1 to 19, with toddlers and teenage boys being at the greatest risk.

“It’s like shots at the doctor’s oice. If an accident happens, he has a chance to ight,” explained Dufey, who has a pool.

Since the late 1960s, experts have written dozens of books and articles about teaching infants — even as young as 6 months — how to swim.

Collierville swim instructor Karen Packer and two other women gained training through Infant Swimming Resource in 2007. Although Packer, 53, is no longer certiied by the ISR group, she teaches private survival swimming lessons for those ages 7 months to 8 years, and also for adults.

Lessons are 10 minutes a day, four times a week for four to six weeks. Weekly classes cost between $50 and $70.

“Nobody is drown-proof. I teach skills to give children the best chance to survive if they fall in the water unsupervised,” Packer said. She stressed that children still need to be watched constantly when they are in or around water.

In his fourth week of lessons, Baylor was fully clothed with long stretchy pants, a zipped up jacket and shoes when he took a recent swim class.

Packer gently held him as he cried for his mother.

“Mama is right there,” Packer cooed. “Mama loves you.”

Packer warned him she was going to let him go

or lip him over. Each time, he slipped under the water and popped up. Without any help, he rolled on his back and loated with his legs constantly kicking. He loated for more than ive minutes after the simulated fall into the water.

Dufey believes the lessons are working for Baylor. Recently he slipped of the pool’s shallow 1-foot deep wet deck and into three feet of water while her other two children, Landon, 8, and Ella, 5, played in the pool.

“Karen has always cautioned us not to pick a child up if their face is in the water because it becomes a learned response. They expect someone will be there to pick them up,” she said.

“He went completely under. He kicked his little feet to turn himself around,” she said. “He came up to the surface and loated.” Once he started loating on his back for a few seconds, Dufey picked Baylor up.

Rather than the episode frightening him, she added, “He ended up doing it two more times.”

She considers the lessons “another layer of protection” just like her family’s pool alarm.

In 2010, the American Academy of Pediatrics softened its previous stance on infant swimming, saying, “New evidence shows that children ages one to four may be less likely to drown if they have had formal swimming instruction.” In 2000, the AAP group cautioned that children younger than four were not developmentally ready for formal swim lessons.

The pediatrics group still frowns on any water safety classes for those younger than one year: “The water-survival skills programs for infants may make compelling videos for the Internet, but no scientiic study has yet demonstrated these classes are efective.”

Packer disagrees. “While I have had many successful students under the age of one year, I leave that decision to the parents,” she said.

As the summer winds down, Packer teaches morning and evening lessons for moms who come from Collierville, Cordova, Arlington, Germantown, Olive Branch, Hernando, Moscow, Tenn., and even Sladen, Miss.

Collierville ire oicials evacuated a row of businesses along Poplar Avenue near Market Boulevard Monday afternoon after a contractor hit a gas main.

Mark Heuberger said a contractor working behind the AT&T store building at 900 W. Poplar was boring under the parking lot when he hit the gas main around 3:25 p.m.

Fire officials ordered workers and customers of eight businesses including two restaurants, a hair salon, a FedEx store and Jackson’s Shoes in the retail strip center from 900 W. Poplar to 942 W. Poplar to leave the premises as a precaution.

There was no ire or injuries. Workers were allowed back into their businesses nearly three hours later around 6:15 p.m.

Some business owners elected to remain closed Monday and reopened Tuesday morning.

Memphis Light Gas & Water work crews were on the scene and turned of the valve to stop the low of escaping gas.

‘Faithfulness, favor and fire’ Former Collierville pastor’s family to take on new ministry

Kingsway, Collierville churches collect food for Stop Hunger Now

By Patsy Keith Special to The Weekly

By Robin Gallaher Branch Special to The Commercial Appeal

In 2012, Dr. Ernie Frey, senior pastor at Central Church, a 3,000-member, nondenominational church in Collierville, resigned for a new assignment: missionary service in Ethiopia. “I obeyed what I believed was God’s call on my life,” he said.

Frey worked directly with Kale Heywet, the largest evangelical denomination in Ethiopia. “That’s the humor of God,” he said, laughing at the irony of serving a denomination with 8 million members and 8,000 churches after pastoring a nondenominational church.

Frey said God taught him, a pastor with 15 years of experience, about time, relationships, and intentionality. “Jesus’ mode of making disciples was relational,” he said. And he has come to believe that “relationships are what’s missing in U.S. pastorates and U.S. churches.”

In Ethiopia, he facilitated a summit meeting of church leaders from all over Africa. There were 90 leaders from 50 denominations and 24 countries. “They represented 100 million believers, one-ifth of the African Church,” he said.

What is being birthed from that conference is a larger ministry called L3 Global that will develop leaders in churches, communities, and cultures throughout Africa and the world, he said.

Part of the plan is to disciple Americans to send them overseas; another part of the plan is to develop people to disciple where they live.

Frey said that for now, he and his family will move to the Houston, Texas, area to build the ministry.

“We want to mobilize people to live out their potential in Christ,” he said. “This vision is too big for us. It’s so big that it’s impossible without God.” His decision involved his wife, Anne, and their daughters Morgan, 18; Meredith, 14; and Madison, 10.

For two years the Freys lived in the capital city of Addis Ababa, where Anne worked as an art and music teacher at the same school the girls attended.

The Freys returned to Central Church last month to speak, regroup, and gear up for the next phase of their lives. Ernie Frey spoke at church services July 20, and Anne Frey and their daughters presented the program July 22 at the church’s Girl’s Night Out, a cofee-and-dessert event.

Their visit included countless hugs, all-too-short private chats as they caught up on the lives of their friends, lots of tissues for tears, and much excitement as they shared their individual per-

Ernie Frey leads his family — wife, Anne, and daughters (clockwise) Morgan, 18, Meredith, 14, and Madison, 10, in prayer during a special program July 22 at Central Church in Collierville, where Frey was pastor until the family left two years ago to serve as missionaries in Ethiopia.

spectives on what God has accomplished in them.

Throughout the week, the family talked openly of many tears and many humbling times.

Ernie Frey said, “Throughout our time in Ethiopia, God smothered us with his grace.”

He explained that Ethiopia, located on the Horn of Africa, has an evangelical Christian community that’s exploding “like the irst century Christians in Acts!”

He said, “Africa is a broken continent. Yet there is a spiritual vitality that is disproportionate to its circumstances.”

About 300 women attended Tuesday’s Girl’s Night Out program where Anne and their daughters shared insights on their mission work. Middle daughter Meredith led songs of praise and youngest daughter Madison sang two songs in Amharic, the national language of Ethiopia.

In a language lesson that hooked the hearts of all, Madison explained that the word ‘memphis’ in Amharic means spirit, and that Memphis Kudus means Holy Spirit.

Expressing the general consensus of the family, Meredith said, “We’ve had an amazing two years. We’ve gotten closer as a family and closer to the Lord.”

Two years ago, the family left what they all described as a large home in Germantown and settled in Ethiopia in a very small apartment with one bathroom.

Anne said she missed her comfortable bed.

Ernie noted the single bath-

room. “There were four women and one man sharing a bathroom ...” he said, letting his voice trail.

But despite the inconveniences, “We got to do amazing things,” Meredith said, “like some street ministry evangelism activities.”

The family quickly came to love, respect, and learn from the Ethiopians. “The people’s joy is disproportionate to their circumstances and resources,” Ernie said. “They have a joy in being.”

Likewise, he said, the Ethiopians’ generosity and hospitality extend to exceptional levels.

“Their hospitality defines them. It’s not even a thought to them to spend their week’s paycheck on inviting you in for coffee. Their hospitality overrides their resources. It made us, as Americans, relect on our own hardness of heart,” he added.

The family found a simpler life in Ethiopia and enjoyed learning new customs, especially the Ethiopian emphasis on proper greetings, Anne Frey said. Ethiopian etiquette entails allowing time for each person to share family news.

“Greeting people gives value to them,” Anne said.

Ethiopia is a very religious country, Ernie said. “You hear religion, see religion, taste religion everywhere,” he said.

Parker DePriest, an engineer with Barnhart Crane of Memphis, spent about two weeks last year with the Freys in Ethiopia.

Barnhart has a philanthropy arm called The Grove Group that numbers among the Freys’ inancial supporters, DePriest said.

On July 19, Kingsway Christian Church in Germantown partnered with Collierville Christian Church to package meals for a Stop Hunger Now event. It was the irst time either church had participated in this opportunity.

Kingsway member Paula Wright organized the event. She has participated in other SHN events through the Memphis Rotary Club and through the Southern College of Optometry and was familiar with the program.

Wright explained that those who assembled the meal packets could choose where the packaged food would be sent.

“Sometimes the Stop Hunger Now meal packets go to refugee camps, to disaster relief, or to schools in developing countries.

We asked that the meal packages that we put together be sent to a school,” said Wright. “Often the parents will send the children to school if they think they will be fed. Otherwise they keep them at home and make the children work in the ields.”

“It’s been proven if the children are educated they do better in life — being able to feed the children a hot meal during school helps

the children learn and begins breaking the cycle of poverty,” said Wright.

Each meal consists of dehydrated rice, and soy, fortiied with 21 essential vitamins and minerals, plus dehydrated vegetables.

“Each packaged meal cost 29 cents” said Wright.

“That 29 cent per meal is how we igure our cost for the meal packaging event.

Kingsway and Collierville Christian churches decided that together they would pack 20,000 meals.”

The two churches donated $5,800 to Stop Hunger Now. The donation paid for the dehydrated items that came in a truck in 50 pound bags.

Stop Hunger Now also brings everything needed including the scales to weigh each meal package and a sealing machine so each bag is closed correctly, plus boxes to hold the packaged meals.

“We had a total of 127 people come from Collierville Christian and Kingsway Christian churches.

That number also included some family and friends plus people from the community. We packaged 20,952 meals in under four hours including setup and cleanup. This intergenerational event included children as young as ive and also people in their nineties,” said Wright.

Members from Kingsway Christian Church and Collierville Christian Church recently gathered to help package meals for a Stop Hunger Now event. Putting together the meals are Jan Vogelfinger (left), Anne Voyles, Daniel Cox, Cara Cox and Kasi Gurung.

CHILL OUT Dive into a big bowl of cold soup

By Daniel Neman st. Louis Post-dispatch

The sun is blazing. The sweat is dripping. The air feels as if it is sticking to your skin.

Hey, how about a nice big bowl of soup? No, seriously. Soup is good food.

Especially in the summer, when the soup is cold.

Summer soup is diferent from winter soup. Winter soup is heavy, substantial, serious. It sticks to your ribs. But summer soup is light, frivolous, festive. It cools you down from the inside out.

Gazpacho, of course, is the (generally) tomato-based cold soup that originated in the Andalusia region of Spain. Everyone who makes it makes it diferently, but the essentials are the same — ripe tomatoes, sherry vinegar whenever possible and a bit of bread that has been soaked in water and then squeezed for added texture, all puréed together.

That’s not the way I make it. I call my version Farmers Market Gazpacho because it is basically a vegetable soup that makes full use of the bounty of the season. Also, I don’t use bread.

I usually serve it thin with plenty of nice chunks of veggies crammed into it. Occasionally I will purée it, but while it tastes delicious, it does leave you with a soup that is visually unappealing.

Another thing I like to do in the summer is take cold-weather soups and, by virtue of chilling them, turn them into hot-weather soups.

I have a grilled corn soup with leeks that I love to make in the fall, but it is (very nearly) just as good in the summer when it is served cold.

And spiced carrot soups, which are such an essential safeguard against the snow, are every bit as good a shield against the hot sun.

FARMERS MARKET GAZPACHO

Most curried or spiced soups have cream in them to temper the heat from the spice, and that cream works just as well to cool you down on a hot day. The Ginger and Carrot Soup I made here, which comes from Health.com, has the added beneit of using yogurt instead of the higherfat cream.

Vichyssoise was invented in 1917 at the Ritz-Carlton hotel in New York City. Chef Louis Diat liked to create a new hot-weather recipe every summer, and that year he thought about the leek-and-potato soup his mother used to serve when he was growing up in Bourbon-l’Archambault, about 40 miles from the town of Vichy.

When she served leftover soup, she would thin it out with cream.

It is that idea, leek-and-potato soup mixed with cream and chilled, that is the essence of vichyssoise.

Because it was created in America, I decided to make a distinctly American version of it by adding corn to the potatoes and leeks or onions.

This idea came from Jacques Pepin who, like Diat, is a French chef living in America. That makes it a FrenchAmerican version of a French-American dish. And it is terriic.

And for a bit of sweetness, I went to a truly spectacular soup created

by Emeril Lagasse, of all people. Say what you will about the man, but the culinaroscenti agree that he can latout cook.

Or in the case of his Summer Fruit Soup, not cook. Actually, a little bit of cooking is involved, just a few minutes to dissolve the sugar and bring the most out of the strawberries, the pineapple, the mango and the lemon, lime and orange peels.

It’s an abundance of fruit, plus sugar. If it sounds too sweet, you could serve it for dessert, but I’d make it a light and refreshing appetizer.

Ten creative, out-of-the-box ways for eating all that zucchini

By J.M. Hirsch Associated Press

Zucchini bread is ine and all, but when you’re staring down a mountain of summer abundance, how much of it can you really eat?

Convinced we could ind more — and more creative — ways to use up a bounty of zucchini, we decided to explore out-ofthe-box ideas for summer’s most notorious love-hate vegetable. The result?

Some delicious ideas that will have you if not embracing then at least better tolerating your zucchini.

10 FRESH WAYS WITH ZUCCHINI Pasta: Grab yourself one of those veggie spiral cutting gizmos, which let you render produce into pasta-like ribbons. Zucchini does particularly well. Toss the zucchini spirals in a hot skillet with a splash of oil for a minute or two, then dress with sauce and cheese as you would pasta. Or boil up real pasta,

then add the zucchini for the last minute. Drain and dress.

Dip: Slice a zucchini in half and toss it on a medium hot grill. Cook until lightly browned and tender, then pop it into a food processor. Add tahini, garlic, salt, pepper and a splash of lemon juice, then process until very smooth.

Use as a dip for vegetables and chips, or as a sandwich spread.

Salsa: Dice and toss together 1 medium zucchini, 1 large tomatillo and 2 red or orange bell pepper. Add 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, a pinch of red pepper lakes, 1 tablespoon chopped pickled jalapeños and a splash of hot sauce.

Season with salt and pepper.

Fries: Cut the zucchini into 2 -inch-thick sticks, then toss them irst in a beaten egg, then in seasoned breadcrumbs. Arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet, then bake until crisp outside and just tender inside. As soon as they come out of the oven,

sprinkle them with grated Parmesan cheese.

Boats: Slice a zucchini in half then use a melon baller to scoop out the insides of each half. Mix loose sausage meat, grated cheese and chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Pack the mixture into the hollowed out zucchini halves, then bake or grill (over low heat) until cooked through.

Frittata: Use a mandoline or food processor to slice the zucchini as thinly as possible. Whisk 6 or so eggs, then pour them into an oiled pan and cook over mediumhigh until the bottom is just set. Scatter the zucchini slices evenly over the top of the egg, then crumble feta over it. Broil until lightly browned and the center is set.

Grain salad: Toss inely diced raw zucchini with cooked and cooled farro or barley, halved cherry tomatoes, diced red onion and crumbled soft goat cheese. Dress with lemon juice, olive oil, salt and

pepper.

Tart: Use a mandoline

or food processor to slice

the zucchini as thinly as possible. Unfold a sheet of puf pastry (thawed ac-

cording to package directions). Run a paring knife along the outside of the pastry about 1 inch from the edge and cutting only halfway down. Arrange the zucchini slices in the center, then sprinkle with grated Parmesan. Bake at 400 F until pufed and lightly browned.

Chips: Use a mandoline or food processor to slice the zucchini as thinly as possible. Arrange the slices on a baking sheet, mist with cooking spray, then season with herbs, spices, salt and pepper, whatever you like. Bake at 375 F until the chips are nicely browned.

Casserole: Cut a whole mess of zucchini into 2 -inch rounds. Arrange several layers of them in an oiled casserole dish.

Top them with a bit of marinara and some ricotta cheese. Repeat this layering until you ill the casserole dish about threequarters of the way. Bake at 350 degrees until tender, lightly browned and bubbling at the edges.

REVIVAL

FRED MORGAN ABOUT TREES

Bradfords beautiful, but have dark side I can remember the days, a few decades back, when many landscapers and site designers seemed exuberantly enthusiastic about the then-new Bradford Pear as an almost perfect landscape and street tree. For a time, it was ubiquitous.

There was hardly a new street-facing commercial property that did not boast at least one row of these profusely lowering trees.

They were largely immune to insect infestations and promised a symmetrical shape that recommended it as a top-of-the-list option for new plant material.

However, as with many other things in life, time has a way of exposing the dark side of initially impressive good ideas.

While it is true that the Bradford ofers an impressive springtime showing of white lowers and a dense and uniform green canopy through the balance of the growing year, it has not proved to be as perfect a choice as irst thought. Two species-speciic problems can claim an almost equal running in the pear complaint column.

Along with quince, crabapple, hawthorn, cotoneaster, pyracantha, and apple trees, pear trees are susceptible to ire blight (Erwinia amylovora), a bacterial disease that is highly infectious and shows up as clumps of leaves that appear as though they had been scorched.

Control, which simply means suppressing the disease symptoms, is a twopart process. Removal and destruction of this infectious tissue must be combined with a springtime antibiotic injection near the time of lowering. This can greatly assist in suppressing new symptoms.

But the second and more commonly known flaw with the ornamental pear is its propensity for mechanical self-destruction after it has gained some size. The frequency of this casualty event in the case of pears is usually caused by a combination of those same dense canopies that can collect excessive rainwater weight along with characteristically tight V-shaped forks that ofer weak junctions and support.

In sum, a tree that starts out as a beautiful lowering tree that can initially enhance a property can inally evolve into a problematic liability. If pear trees are already a part of your plant inventory, there are a couple of things that can be done to, hopefully, extend the life of the trees.

■ First, inspect the interior structure for tight Vshaped forks with a visible seam extending downward below the junction point.

If one of these can be removed without creating a hole or void in the canopy, it may be good to do so.

Also look for crossing and/ or abrasion interior limbs to remove.

■ Second, keep a watchful eye for the torchedlooking leaf clumps that are the early signs of ire blight. This disease is much easier to control when caught early.

Removal cuts must be executed well inside of symptomatic tissue, and the pruning tool must be disinfected with alcohol or Lysol after each cut. Destroy or discard this tissue.

■ If you see ire blight on your tree, it will be good to contact an arborist to begin a antibiotic treatment at the time of spring lower.

Plants thought killed by harsh winter surprisingly doing well It’s midsummer and time to assess the true damage from our long cold winter.

Doing it sooner proved to be folly for me.

In late March I wrote that two gardenia bushes and a fatsia — a largel e a f e d shrub with CHRISTINE tropical ARPE looks — GANG appeared to be dead.

GREEN THUMB Nearby, a variegated pittosporum looked like it would probably make it, I opined.

I’m pleased to report the fatsia and the gardenias took a hit but are bouncing back with vigor, if not blooms in the case of the gardenias. I’ve seen just a few.

The pittosporum perished. I like its gray-green, white-edged leaves so much I want to replace it even though it’s obviously not completely hardy here.

I braced myself for a summer devoid of the lovely blue, pink and purple mophead and lacecap hydrangeas whose buds I feared were surely killed of by freezing temperatures. Alas, that has mostly been true.

I was hoping my Dooley hydrangeas, which are sometimes described “cold hardy and free lowering,” would bloom, but there’s no sign of a bud on old or new stems.

I expected little from Ayesha, one of my favorites for its waxy cupped lorets, and have seen nary a bud, just lots of big, healthy leaves. I’m sure she will put on a big show next year after this season of rest and rejuvenation.

Endless Summer, a re-bloomer marketed for its ability to produce lowers even after freezes kill the irst buds, has been blooming since spring, but not as much as in years with warmer winters.

Several unnamed mopheads and lacecaps have had limited sporadic blooms, mostly on the rear branches closest to a brick wall that holds daytime warmth and slowly releases it at night. We all know our gardens have microclimates, but who would suspect a shrub could be in two of them?

What surprises did you have with survivors and casualties from last winter? E-mail your observations to me at chrisagang@hotmail.com so I can share them with readers.

Because there is dearth of hydrangeas, I think I was extra impressed with Expression, a gorgeous double-lowering mophead spied at the Germantown Farm Park.

It has star-shaped double lorets in either pink or blue, depending on the acidity of the soil. Because it grows just 3 to 4 feet tall and wide, I’m telling myself I can surely ind a place for it somewhere.

CHRISTINE ARPE GANG

Healthy foliage has replaced the brown leaves on a fatsia that appeared dead after the harsh winter.

FLORAL DESIGN ‘OLYMPICS’ Earlier this summer Germantown resident Pat Smith traveled to Dublin, Ireland, to attend the World Flower Show, which is sometimes called the “Olympics” of loral design.

About 600 loral designers representing the 31 member nations exhibited arrangements, including two from Middle Tennessee, Bette Anne Fields and Pam Braun.

She and her husband, Thane, were with a group of about 60 organized by National Garden Clubs Inc., which consists of some 6,000 local garden clubs with 200,000 members.

“It was a huge show with many exhibits and people looking at them,” said Pat, who is a certiied loral design judge. “It is very diicult to do an arrangement when you are away from home and don’t even see the lowers you ordered until you arrive.”

Pat, who is a member of three local gar-

den clubs, has not competed in international shows, but she has been a judge at shows in Costa Rica, Argentina and Peru.

Next year she will travel to Uruguay to judge again.

She also judged the prestigious Philadelphia Flower Show last year.

You can see loral designs from the show, including the Best of Show won by Vinita Khemka of India, at wafaireland. com.

The next World Flower Show will be in Barbados in 2017. If I start saving now ...

In veggie world, best flavors often in smaller sizes

grow from the size of a carrot to that of a baseball bat. A few days’ delay in harvest rapidly plumps up zucchinis and the wallet of any farmer who is paid for poundage, thus accounting for the extra cost of vegetables harvested while still tiny.

By Lee Reich Associated Press

Truman Capote famously told friends that the very wealthy eat better vegetables — tiny ones. So there’s another plus for gardening: It’s easier to eat the way the superrich do.

Not that smaller is always better in the world of vegetables. A cucumber picked undersized does not taste better than one allowed to swell up before harvest — as long as that full-size one is picked before its skin yellows and seeds start to harden.

Similarly, the taste of baby carrots can’t compare with fully grown ones, unless the “baby” size is how big the carrots are supposed to be when fully mature.

A certain degree of maturity is needed before a carrot can store energy — which translates to sweetness — in its leshy roots.

Some varieties of carrots, such as Caracas and Atlas, never grow large; when mature and tasty, the roots are still no more than a few inches long.

“Baby carrots” that you buy in the supermarket, incidentally, are not actually babies, but are full-size carrots cut into smaller pieces.

LEE REICH/ASSOCIATED PRESS

Small is sometimes better in the vegetable world. Zucchini, picked before the flower has been shed, is young and tender and can be eaten flower and all.

WAYS TO BABY VEGETABLES There’s no arguing that tiny vegetables are more fun and convenient to eat. That must be what accounts for the popularity of supermarket cherry tomatoes.

The bulk of these, unfortunately, are the variety Red Cherry, which doesn’t taste nearly as good as Sungold, which has a delectable sweet-tart lavor.

Miniature caulilower — “minicauli” — is an-

other tiny vegetable that is fun and convenient. This one tastes pretty much the same as full-size caulilower. The way to grow minicaulis is by planting out any variety of caulilower at a 6-inch spacing each way and letting competition among the plants keep them dwarf as they mature.

BETTER BECAUSE THEY ARE BABIES Of course, tiny vegetables’ main draw is their

perceived gustatory superiority. And it’s true: Many vegetables are most delicate, tender and tasty at this stage.

Fine examples of vegetables that reach gustatory perfection early in their growth are zucchini and other summer squashes.

You can even pick zucchinis before their blossoms have wilted and been shed, eating the tasty blossoms along with the fruit.

Every gardener knows how fast a zucchini can

DIFFERENT BECAUSE THEY ARE BABIES And then there are vegetables that take on a different character if picked while still tiny; they’re not necessarily better, but they are diferent.

As green beans mature, the seeds within the pods expand and contribute to the lavor and texture.

When baby-size, beans are almost all pod.

Baby corn is similarly quite diferent from large ears of sweet corn whose kernels are plumped full of milky, sweet juice. But they’re both good.

Any variety of lettuce, especially heading lettuces, takes on a diferent taste and textural quality as it matures. As lettuces grow up, the leaves of some varieties turn buttery. Those of other varieties become crisp only along their ribs, and still other varieties become crispheads. Flavors may also take on distinctive qualities.

Community PHILANTHROPY

Academy outfits 30 YMCA campers for school

By Gwen Hooper Special to The Weekly

When school is in session, 2 p.m. signals the end of the school day for most of the YMCA’s summer camp kids.

But on a recent day, 2 p.m. marked a special hour for 30 YMCA campers who were outitted with backto-school essentials such

as new shoes, socks, backpack, lunch sacks, belts and more. The back to school giveaway was possible thanks to the community outreach and partnership eforts of the Y and Academy Sports + Outdoors.

For years, Academy Sports + Outdoors have made it a priority to donate these essentials during the back to school season. The

Academy staf and team members in Collierville were almost as excited as the kids were.

Each of the 30 students received a $100 gift card to shop with during the back to school donation program. Some parents were able to come and assist their child purchase items.

Other children had help from some of their favorite

camp counselors and staf members, like Mike Cunningham, Cordova YMCA branch executive.

The Y relishes collaboration opportunities that help directly impact our community through healthy living, social responsibility and youth development.

Gwen Hooper is the YMCA digital communications manager.

GIVING BACK

A Junior League of extraordinary women makes strong impact on our community

By Jeremy C. Park Special to The Weekly

Jeremy C. Park

Comic books have Batman and Superman, but when it comes to the real world and managing family, career, and community, women are true super heroes. Women successfully juggle the constant demands and responsibilities of leading families; leading businesses, schools,

and nonproits; and leading community engagement and change, as well.

The perfect example is Junior League. Founded in 1901, Junior League is one of the oldest, largest, and most efective women’s volunteer organizations in the world, encompassing more than 150,000 women in 292 Leagues in four countries. What began as ten young women looking to serve their

community has evolved into an organization comprised of women of all ages, from all walks of life, who share the desire to help those in need and to improve their communities.

The Junior League of Memphis (JLM) began in 1922 at the home of Mrs. McKay Van Vleet. There are now more than 1,600 members locally who annually complete a total of over 30,000 volunteer

hours and raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for worthy causes in the Mid-South.

Their impact on our city is over $1 million each year!

Aside from volunteerism and contributions, JLM has also played an important role in starting or coordinating other nonproits and initiatives This year JLM will continue its work with programs like Camp Good Grief,

G.R.O.W., Memphis Athletic Ministries’ SLAM, and Kids in the Kitchen. They will also add support for groups like Binghampton Christian Academy.

Through their involvement, JLM seeks to develop the community while helping their members develop personally.

Education MUNICIPAL SCHOOLS

Schools poised to hire additional teachers High enrollment cause for last-minute staing in 4 districts

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

As the school year began, four of the six new municipal school districts were hiring additional teachers based on enrollment numbers higher than expected.

Because of larger than expected enrollment at Collierville Middle, school oicials are adding another teacher there as the district student count reaches 7,699.

Enrollment at the eight schools in the new Collierville municipal district has reached 96.8 percent of what district

oicials projected. Collierville Middle has 854 students.

The Germantown Municipal School District was hiring three teachers for Dogwood Elementary. Supt. Jason Manuel said an additional teacher is possible at Riverdale School. The Arlington Municipal School District was adding two teachers to Donelson Elementary and one at Arlington Elementary. Lakeland School System will also add one teacher.

Germantown set Dogwood’s optimal capacity at 775 students, but Manuel said the inal number is expected to be around 845 students. Only 645 students attended Dogwood last year. Manuel said he isn’t worried about the growth. The school will have the space and the staf to handle the extra students.

“A lot of those students were

private school students or students who moved into the area,” he said.

Manuel previously said the school district had a cushion for adding students, but added oicials may have to adjust as the numbers irm. Hiring the new teachers won’t be diicult, Manuel said, and they would be ready to teach the irst day of school last Monday.

“When we had our early interviews, it creates a pool of teachers that are still in our database,” he said.

Overall, the district will have close to 5,550 students, Manuel said, within the range of the predicted 5,400 to 5,600. That would represent a districtwide growth of about 250 students over last year. Houston High’s enrollment is near 1,800, but Manuel

said that could rise to 1,950 as students who did not attend registration day conirm they plan to attend this year.

Arlington Supt. Tammy Mason said the system had a high number of students zoned for other districts who decided to come to Arlington. She said the district has posted the job opportunities for the three additional teaching positions.

She said students on the nonresident waiting list are being considered on a grade-by-grade basis depending on space and staf.

Early projections for the district were for 4,371 students.

About 4,700 registered last Tuesday. Another 274 who preregistered in the spring did not show up at their school last Tuesday. Mason said the district

is contacting those students regarding their intentions.

Lakeland Supt. Ted Horrell said the district will add one teacher at Lakeland Elementary, the district’s only school.

He said that person would hopefully be in place by the start of school. Horrell said enrollment as of last Thursday was 822 students. Projected enrollment was 810, although the school had 839 students last year.

In Bartlett, Supt. David Stephens said the district had 7,750 students register on July 29, which is 92 percent of the district’s projected enrollment of 8,415. Stephens said the district has had, on average, 92 percent enrollment on registration day for the last ive years, “so we are looking good.” He said they are not planning to add teachers.

Teachers honored at appreciation luncheon

By Trena Street Special to The Weekly

The Cox Community Center in Collierville was brimming with excitement at the annual Teacher Appreciation Luncheon presented by the Collierville Education Foundation.

More than 40 Collierville area businesses and individuals, including the Town of Collierville, provided sponsorships for the program including $10,000 worth of $50 mini grants distributed through a random drawing.

Not only did the event mark the 2014 Inaugural year of Collierville Schools, it provided the opportunity for the entire district-teachers, administrators, staf, principals and sponsor representatives to get together and celebrate. “This is our 26th luncheon, but the irst for our new School District,” Molly Henderson, Ph.D. and President of the Education Foundation said. “We are thrilled with the attendance and the enthusiasm here today. The Foundation sole mission is to raise funds for our Schools. Collierville is a phenomenal place to live with exceptional leadership and now, our exceptional schools,” Dr. Henderson said.

In a huge show of unity and camaraderie, hundreds of Collierville Schools employees wore collared shirts provided by the Town of Collierville.

“It’s an awesome sight to look out over this room illed with Maroon,” Supt.

John Aitken said.

“It’s taken a lot to get us here and the Town has been right there with us,” Aitken said. “I hope, every time you see someone from the Town you will tell them thanks for all their behind the scenes work.”

Since 1988, the annual Teacher Appreciation Luncheon has been the venue where the CEF recognized Collierville teachers and provided them with small grants.

Houston High School’s first school day in the Germantown Municipal School District started with classes and clubs and ended with princesses.

Cinderella and Ariel from The Little Mermaid came to help the school grant its 10th wish to a Make-a-Wish Foundation family Monday afternoon, sending 6-year-old Akiyrah Hall, of Horn Lake, to Disney World with her family.

The plan was to include the family in the school’s end-of-day pep rally, but traic delayed the family until the school day was over.

The school’s Student Government Association made sure Akiyrah still got the royal treatment.

SGA President Ashley Markle greeted Akiyrah and her mother, Ciara Hale, and brought them to the gym to meet the cheerleaders. They performed a cheer before the princesses from Mirror Mirror Princess Parties

came out for the surprise. Then representatives from Make-a-Wish told Akiyrah she was going to Disney World.

She was shy, but grinned ear-to-ear and held the princesses’ gloved hands through the hallway to a party thrown for her in the main oice.

“It makes me so happy

to see how we can make her so happy,” said Markle, a senior. “I love when little kids get genuinely excited like she did.”

Make-a-Wish MidSouth development coordinator Rebekah Sudduth thanked the students during the pep rally, even though the family had not yet arrived, and told the

roughly 1,800 students in attendance that Akiyrah was 6 years old and would be going to Disney World.

“That would not be possible without you guys,” she said.

Principal Kyle Cherry said the idea to present the wish on the irst day was to involve as many students as possible.

“We wanted to expose all new students to it,” he said.

Ciara Hale said her daughter, who is one of ive children, has sickle cell anemia and has spent time in intensive care.

“It could be worse, but she’s a ighter,” her mother said, adding that she was honored her daughter was chosen and could be “in the spotlight.”

The money for the wish, over $5,000, came from fundraisers the school held last year, including penny wars, a pajama day, and even duct taping an administrator to a pole for an afternoon.

SWEET SUMMER

Heat isn’t on area’s athletes or coaches

By Zack McMillin zmcmillin@commercialappeal.com 901-300-9225

The ‘98 Collierville Lady Lobos won the Division 2 State Championship. Team members are (front row, from left) Anna Crutcher, Isabella Cantu, Anna Della Rosa, Sydney Spadafora, Alli Herring, Gabrielle Sciortino, Ashton White, (back row, from left) coach Butch Scott, Lyndsay Hale, Chloee Bilbrey, Sarah Balkcom, Danielle Sparkman, Madeline Petro, Megan Toler, Morgan Robbins and Shelby Goodrich.

The Briarcrest Christian School varsity volleyball team traveled to LSU and finished with a perfect 12-0 record to win the camp tournament.

The team also won all 24 sets it played.

Earlier this summer, as members of the Houston High cross country team assembled for their 6 a.m. training at Shelby Farms Park, coach Aaron Martens noticed something. “They are showing up in their tank tops and shorts, and it was chilly,� Martens said.

For distance runners, “chilly� is good, and for athletes in the Memphis area preparing for their upcoming seasons, it has been a summer of sweet relief.

On the inal day of July, the high hit 81 at the Agricenter, according to the Memphis oice of the National Weather Service.

Unlike back-to-back days earlier in July, that did not set a meteorological record for “low� high temperature, but to coaches and players, it felt like something unprecedented.

Tony Whicker, girls soccer coach at St. George’s, had his team at Halle Stadium last Thursday, running stadium steps. “I remember years before, even early, the heat just baking of those bleachers,� Whicker said.

Preseason training in the week before public schools opened in previous years often meant

pushing practices further into the evening, or canceling them altogether because of a Tennessee Secondary Schools Athletic Association rule about not practicing when the heat index exceeds 103.

The average high temperature on July 31 the last seven years had been 94 degrees.

Martens remembers his runners going to this extreme: “I had guys showing up after 9 (p.m.) with lashlights, to get their run in.�

But this unseasonably mild summer, said Whicker, has had another efect. “Practices are a little bit livelier, a little bit fresher,� the St. George’s coach said. “You can push a little hard-

er.�

When Arlington and Bartlett scheduled a girls soccer scrimmage for last Thursday, coaches Zeke Vezina and Robby Midyett set it for 5 p.m. without worrying over heat indexes. “It was perfect soccer weather,� said Bartlett senior captain Kayla Doyle. “Arlington has always been our No. 1 rival, so it was awesome going out and playing them in a friendly, and everybody has good attitudes and is fresh.�

The explanation for the (so far) mild 2014 summer, said Marlene Mickelson with the National Weather Service, involves things

such as low-pressure systems and cold fronts.

One who is not necessarily celebrating Memphis’ extended spring is Whitehaven football coach Rodney Saulsberry. “I’m afraid we’ll have a heat wave and our bodies won’t be conditioned,�

Saulsberry said last Thursday, just before the Tigers hosted Southwind for an evening scrimmage. “I don’t think the boys are truly getting acclimated to the heat.�

But one of his players, linebacker Joshua McMillon, isn’t concerned about that possible downside to the most pleasant summer weather he can remember.

He and other Whitehaven seniors have endured their share of scorching preseason practices, and he recalls 2011, when it got so hot that practices had to be canceled entirely.

The week before school started in 2011, the weekday temperatures rolled out like this — 100 (Monday), 101 (Tuesday), 106 (Wednesday), 97 (Thursday) and 91 (Friday). In 2010, four of those ive weekdays featured temperatures of 100 or above.

As far as McMillon and his classmates are concerned, they earned this spring in July.
