Showing respect Miss Collierville teen olivia shawkey wants to end the use of ‘R-word’ By Chelsea Chandler Special to The Weekly

In the six weeks since being chosen Miss Collierville’s Outstanding Teen 2014, Olivia Shawkey has kept busy with many oicial activities, but the one closest to her 15-year-old heart is Best Buddies. Best Buddies is a national organization that encourages one-toone friendships between people with disabilities and those without. Through local school chapters and events, the emerging Shelby County Best Buddies chapter is growing its footprint and helping to form Best Buddy relationships. “There are over 200 million people around the world intellectual disabilities,” Shawkey said Feb. 24 before Collierville Mayor Stan Joyner and the Town’s Board of Aldermen. “People with intellectual and developmental disabilities are capable and enjoy sharing life experiences — listening to music, playing video games, watching the latest movies, and yes, just having fun! Sometimes, they just need a buddy to have fun with, and that is the mission of Best Buddies.” Shawkey, along with Best Buddies executive director Melissa Todd, are working to bring local attention to the national effort to “Spread the Word to End the Word.” This efort is to raise peoples’ awareness of the derogatory use of the R-Word (retard or retarded) and its negative efects on people with intellectual disabilities. However, this campaign is about more than just raising awareness of the R-word; it is also about changing attitudes of segregation and hate, to attitudes of acceptance and respect. During the Town of Collierville’s official meeting, Joyner proclaimed March 5 as “Spread the Word to End the Word Day” in Collierville. Citizens and youth of the Town of Collierville are encouraged to think before they speak, and help spread the word to end the R-word. See RESPECT, 2

“Boeing Boeing,” which runs through March 9 at Germantown Community Theatre, is one of those classic bedroom farces in which the lead character, usually as a result of their own deceptions, has to juggle a lot of diferent situations lest their whole world comes tumbling down around them. It’s kind of how Leigh Eck must be feeling these days. Eck, the director of education and outreach at GCT, recently became

interim artistic director for the company after longtime executive director Brent Davis recently stepped down. Eck’s new role makes her producer of “Boeing Boeing,” which is being directed by her husband, Teddy Eck, who has in turn cast his wife as one of the leads. For the record, that’s a lot of juggling. “I’m really kind of involved on all levels,” says Eck, with a hint of exhaustion in her voice. “Maybe I’m a little biased because I’m in it and producing it and married to the director, but I really do think this is an exemplary show for our space.” Written by French play-

Germantown residents will have irst priority in open enrollment policies the Germantown Municipal School District is developing to give residents as much choice as possible over where to attend school next year. The zoning plans will be voted on Monday. In the meantime, the school board is working on the open enrollment issue to approve at the same time. Whether open enrollment for nonresidents would involve a tuition is still up for debate, but board members said they are aiming to have a decision on that as well by the March meeting. Supt. Jason Manuel presented a draft of the open enrollment policies, one for residents and one for nonresidents, during the board’s Feb. 19 work session. It’s still unclear which schools will have room for open enrollment. But should there be room for those who live outside the district, the policy will prioritize applications in eight tiers, and will be most accommodating to kids with established connections to the schools. “We don’t want to split up families,” Manuel said in the discussion of his proposal. The policy would give preference to district employees’ children, then honors academy students, students currently enrolled in the schools, siblings of students in the schools, city employees’ children, nonresidents in previous attendance zones, and then the rest of Shelby County. If any spots remain, children of instate, out-of-county residents would be last. If there weren’t enough available spaces to accommodate all of those in one tier of the criteria, Manuel said he is leaning toward a lottery system after the board’s discussion Feb. 19.

Alderman Palazzolo aims for mayoral post By Jennifer Pignolet pignolet@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2372

Germantown Alderman Mike Palazzolo announced Monday he will run for mayor in November. Palazzolo, 50, is in his 10th year as an alderman. He does not have to resign from his role as an alderman in order to run for mayor. “I think it’s an exten-

sion of what I’ve done for the last 10 years,” Palazzolo said after Monday’s Board of Mayor and Aldermen meeting. “I really enjoy service. It’s one of those things that drives me.” Palazzolo is the irst to announce his candidacy for the position. The deadline to ile is noon on Aug. 21 for the Nov. 4 election. He said he wanted to announce his candidacy early so he could start the

process of going doorto-door in the community, which he has done for each of his aldermen Mike campaigns. Palazzolo “It’s fun for me,” Palazzolo said. “I get to get out and talk to people, and also listen.” He added he will be go-

ing door-to-door all summer whether or not he has an opponent. Mayor Sharon Goldsworthy announced several weeks ago she will not seek re-election after more than 20 years in the oice. She is the longestserving mayor in Shelby County. Palazzolo served as vice mayor in 2007 and 2014. He moved to Germantown in 1977 and spent three years

as a Memphis City Schools teacher of economics and government before a 25year career as a banker. He was chairman of the board and treasurer for the Germantown Area Chamber of Commerce and currently serves in community organizations such as the Leadership Germantown Alumni Association, Tennessee Municipal League and Riverdale PTSA.

City spokeswoman Stacey Ewell said Palazzolo would remain an alderman until potentially becoming mayor, and could keep his seat if he lost the election. If he were to be elected mayor, his alderman seat would become vacant and someone would be appointed to ill it. Aldermen Greg Marcom and John Drinnon will be up for re-election in November as well.

“Local students and citizens are encouraging to pledge not to use the Rword. The campaign is intended to engage schools, organizations and communities to rally and pledge their support at r-word.org and to promote inclusion and acceptance of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities,” Todd said.

ten play,” Eck says of the script, which was translated into English for the London stage in 1962, turned into a ilm starring Tony Curtis and Jerry Lewis in 1965, and most recently revived on Broadway with Bradley Whitford in 2008. “It’s a classic farce. There’s seven doors, a lot of doors slamming, and crazy timing. It always seems like one girl’s on stage and she goes in the bathroom just as the other one comes from the bedroom.” Eck plays Gabriella, Bernard’s Italian iancée. Rounding out the trio of international lovelies are Jaclyn Sufel as the German Gretchen, and Katie Sloan as American Gloria. Brian Everson plays Bernard, Stuart Turner is Robert, and Cheryl McClurg plays Bernard’s housekeeper Bertha. In keeping with the chaotic nature of the story, Eck says the biggest challenge in putting together the show has been keeping everything on set — the props, rooms, costumes — straight. “When you have a play based in confusion it tends to be confusing,” she says. “That’s part of the fun of it is being able to do that successfully. The payof is deinitely worth it.” Eck and Renee Davis Brame, interim managing director at GCT, stepped into their new roles last month when Davis stepped down after 4½ years.

Soup Sunday filling for foodies and for Youth Villages support

Pickler ending board tenure

By Jane Roberts robertsj@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2512

Youth Villages pulled of its 25th ode to the power of soup last Sunday — undergirded in roux, cream base and broth. And that was just the soup. Food truck fare outside FedExForum varied from vegan (Fuel Café) to fried Oreos (The Soul Pig). Awards for the graze-fest included honors for best bread, dessert, gumbo, soup — of course — and specialty items. All told, samples with dollops of crème fraîche, isosceles of pita and sprinkles of green onion netted Youth Villages $80,000 to $90,000. At booth No. 1, exactly where he’s been for 25 years, Half Shell owner Danny Sumrall was soaking up the vibe — heavy on nostalgia and jazz from nearby Memphis Doctors Dance Band. “About 1990, Mike Warr was on the board for Youth Villages,” Sumrall said. “In one of our restaurants in Little Rock we were doing Soup Sunday, an Arkansas efort for kids. We saw that as such an opportunity, Mike said, ‘C’mon, we’re going to do it at Bilbo’s.’ “We just kept going every year. We outgrew (Captain) Bilbo’s after a few years. Then, we went to Woodland Hills and outgrew it. Then we went to The Pyramid, which now is obviously going its own direction …” On Sunday Warr and Sumrall received Youth Villages’ WarrSumrall Spirit of Service Award for envisioning, on a small scale,

what is now one of the largest food charity events in Memphis, including nearly 60 restaurateurs and a crowd organizers early on estimated at 3,000. Each paid $30. “What better year to receive it than the 25th anniversary of the event you helped start,” said spokeswoman Kimberly Rossie. “We are so grateful to them for everything they do. The award in itself is a tribute to the selless service and dedication of those two men.” The foodie fair spans the entire perimeter of the Forum, punctuated with nooks for eating and visiting amid live music. Up a loor, in the Opus Lounge, 500 to 700 more people paid $75 a ticket for a quieter, more sophisticated Soup Sunday, including fare from Felicia Suzanne’s. The event beneits programs for youths with behavioral and emotional programs. When CEO Patrick Lawler opened the doors at 11 a.m., 1,000 people had been waiting 45 minutes.

“It started 25 years ago with a couple hundred people,” Lawler said. “Now, it’s hundreds of volunteers every year. It’s restaurants donating the soup. It’s the communications in our community. People are really supportive of sharing the story.” Most of the proceeds will help the hundreds of teens across the state who have aged out of the foster care system. “We get some support from the government, but not nearly enough to take care of all the kids,” said Lawler, who started Youth Villages 34 years ago. If teens are not adopted and can’t return to their families, they are on their own at 18. Youth Villages provides a safety net — transportation, housing, food, clothing, help with tuition and staf who check in once or twice a week to keep the ship on course. Before that, Youth Villages tries to ill the gap with vocational skills, including its Food with Class program for teens who want to work in the industry.

ON STAGE

Harrell’s production of ‘Seussical’ a family afair By Mark Jordan Special to The Commercial Appeal

Amid the large cast and crew coming together to stage the current production of “Seussical” at Collierville’s Harrell Performing Arts Theater, a small group of folks stands out. The Hollands of Germantown have ive members of their family representing two generations participating in the show, with father G.W. playing the Grinch, mom Pearl and daughter Camilla playing citizens of Whoville, and another daughter, Ella, taking on a couple of minor roles. Daughter Gloria helps out as assistant stage manager. “Mom and Dad both have helped with painting some of the set pieces and even making some of the props as well as being in the show themselves,” says Terry Dean, who is producing the show for the Collierville Arts Council. “We kind of run the gamut on this show, from adults to kids who have never done anything on the stage before.” There are not many plays that could unite the generations like that, but “Seussical,” based on the works of beloved children’s author Theodor Geisel, aka Dr. Seuss, is deinitely one of them. Beginning with 1937’s “And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street,” Geisel, once a struggling cartoonist and advertising illustrator, published 46 books that have become among the most cherished titles in children’s literature, including “Green Eggs and Ham,” “The Cat in the Hat,” “The Lorax,” and “How the Grinch Stole Christmas!” Geisel’s works have been adapted many times for stage and screen, but Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty’s “Seussical,” which debuted on Broadway in 2000 and has since become a favorite of regional, community and children’s theaters, is unique. While generally mirroring the plot of the beloved “Horton Hears A Who!” in which the titular elephant vows to protect the tiny citizens of Whoville, the show incorporates characters and situations from 18 Seuss books, including “The Cat in the Hat,”

Pancake breakfast Students, parents lip for lapjacks at fundraiser

John Shepherd is a senior at Briarcrest Christian School.

By Craig Collier Special to The Weekly

Collierville Elementary School teachers and staf recently hosted their sixth annual Pancake Breakfast. The breakfast acts as a fundraiser to help the school keep up with the latest in classroom technology developments. “In the past six years our pancake breakfasts have raised an average of $3,000 per year,” said principal Louise Claney. “This year’s money is earmarked to purchase a Promethean Board, an interactive white board that allows teachers and students to show their work while in the classroom.” CES teacher Beth Sansone, who served as chairwoman of the event, credits their volunteers and others for the success of the breakfast. “We have half our staf; teachers, administrators, front oice and cafeteria staf who come in on their day of to help make this the success it is. Additionally, our sponsors provide the inishing touches to insure that all the money we raise goes directly to our investment in classroom technology.” One sponsor who is most visible to the efort is the Perkins Restaurant in Collierville. They provide four of their store’s personnel in addition to the bacon, the pancakes and the syrup. Perkin’s general manager Mark Nichols, who was busily trying to keep up the demand for pancakes, said, “We are here because we are happy to be a part of this community. “ Other sponsors include Chef’s Supply, McDonalds, Chick-il-A, Starbucks, Sonic, Kroger, Costco and Party Works. It was obvious by the smiles on the faces of the kids, teachers, parents, administrators, kitchen staf and the others who attended that this event is about more than eating pancakes. This is about coming together in support of those who educate their children.

In the News FAITH MATTERS

World War II veterans gather to remember By David Waters waters@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2377

A group of men who saved the world in the 1940s gathers every third Thursday at a church in Germantown. They eat, pray, pledge their allegiance to the lag and one another, and talk. Their memories are still strong, but their numbers are dwindling. “Dad never talked with us about the war, but he talked to these guys,” said Becky Smith, whose father, Hollan Richardson, was a Marine who survived two gunshots at the battle of Iwo Jima 69 years ago this week. “Just being around them gives you such an appreciation and respect for what they did.” We know and respect what the veterans of World War II did for us so many decades ago. But as we surf past grainy black-and-white flickers on the History Channel or watch movie scenes starring John Wayne or Tom Hanks, we shouldn’t forget who they were when we sent them overseas into the largest and deadliest struggle for freedom in human history. Hollan Richardson, who died in December at the age of 88, grew up on a farm in Alco, Ark. He was 18 when he followed his four brothers into World War II. He was 19 when he landed on Iwo Jima, one of the war’s bloodiest battles. “We forget how young they were,” said Diane Hight, founder of Forever Young, which convenes the monthly meeting. “When you consider who they were and what

they accomplished, it’s even more rema rkable.” Jimmy Keep was a 17-yearHollan old South Richardson Memphis kid when he enlisted in the Marines, 18 when he survived the Corps’ bloodiest battles on Saipan, Iwo Jima and Guam. How did he survive? “I moved my head left one time instead of right,” he said. Clyde May was a 20-year-old from Marked Tree, Ark., when the Navy put him on a destroyer in the Paciic. “I’m just glad we got through it,” he said Feb. 20 at Germantown Baptist Church, which hosts about 50 World War II veterans every month. Luke McLaurine was 19 when the Army Air Corps strapped him into a B-24 bomber. He was shot down over Germany and held as a prisoner of war. “I’d rather be known as a baker,” said the man who ran McLaurine’s Bakery in Memphis with his wife, Bonnie. Earl Harrell was a 17-year-old kid from Clarksdale, Miss., when the Army shipped him to battle the Japanese in the Philippines. “We did it and came home; that’s all,” Harrell said. “The real heroes were the ones who didn’t come home.” The ones who did come home are disappearing. Of the more than 16 million Americans who served in World War II, fewer than 5 million are still alive — fewer than 3,000 in Shelby County.

Minimalist lifestyle Movement seeks happier simpler lives with fewer possessions By Michael Lollar Special to The Commercial Appeal

They worked for a telecom company that had 150 retail stores. In their 20s, they were living lives of luxury compared with other 20-somethings in America, but they were miserable. Joshua Millburn had skipped college and worked his way up from salesman to become, at 27, the youngest director of operations in the company’s 140-year history. He and his best friend, sales manager Ryan Nicodemus, both born in 1981, had known each other since elementary school. They made more than $100,000 a year and had almost any material possessions they wanted. Their jobs meant constant meetings, endless spreadsheets and PowerPoint presentations that gave them the chance to yawn when the lights were dimmed. Their lives hovered around coworkers with multiple divorces, the near-certainty of soul-sapping drudgery and the likelihood of heart attacks and strokes. They worked 70 to 80 hours a week and knew how to sell, but not how to be happy. After the economy collapsed in 2008, Millburn eventually shocked his boss by turning in a downsizing recommendation with himself on the list to go. Nicodemus followed within a few months. They had lived large, but were going to learn to live with next to nothing. They became minimalists. They are building new, simpler lives that “align with their interests, values and beliefs,” Millburn writes in their new book, “Everything That Remains.” Their website, TheMinimalists. com, is one of many promoting

JIM WEBER/THE COMMERCIAL APPEAL

John Mitchell got into the minimalist lifestyle to save money and find meaning in life after a divorce. Now a teacher at Elmore Park Middle School, he lives with two friends in a rental house in Cordova and is soon to be debt-free.

minimalism and has attracted 2 million followers, including Memphian John Mitchell, a social studies teacher at Elmore Park Middle School. Like the authors, Mitchell, 44, is divorced and found minimalism on the Internet as a way to help “cope” with the aftermath of divorce and living a life that was not making him happy. Also like the authors, Mitchell’s old life and its pursuit of the American dream meant accumulating debt. For the authors, six-igure salaries just meant sixigure debt. “The lames of consumption have licked at me from a young age,” Millburn writes. “First, consumerism represented all the things I wanted but was too poor to aford as a kid: the video games, the logo’d clothes, the nice car. But when I began to acquire those things, my thirst was not quenched. ” For Mitchell, forsaking his past consumption was like an exorcism. He decided to move from Chattanooga back to his hometown. “I had to make decisions on what was important. I decided possessions were not. ... When it

was all said and done, I was able to move all my worldly possessions here in a Honda Accord.” Millburn’s new lifestyle began to show right away. He began exercising, dropping from 240 pounds to 165. Nicodemus, who was still working for the corporation at the time, took notice. “I noticed a signiicant change in Josh’s attitude and behavior. I asked him, ‘What are you doing? Why are you happy?’ He said, ‘I’ve really been trying to focus on the things that are important in life.’ He said, ‘I think I’m onto something,’ and he said, ‘You might want to look into it because you’ve got a lot of crap.’” In Memphis, Mitchell also focused on diet, cutting out red meat, pork and deep-fried foods. He took up running. He settled with two friends into a shared rental house in Cordova where he lives in one room with a futon, a desk and TV trays as end tables. He still pays child support for a son in Chattanooga, but, “I’ll be debt-free in a few months. I don’t miss the debt, and as a result, I don’t miss the stuf. ... My one vice is I do still eat out occasionally, but I usually use a coupon for me and my girlfriend.”

Memphians line up with pooches for spot in book By Jane Roberts robertsj@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2512

Lisa Andreotta may not say her dogs are hotties, but she had them both at Rhodes College last Sunday for a photo shoot bound to give them some face time in a “Hottest Hounds” book. “I saw a post on the Humane Society Facebook page. It sounded interesting. ... I wanted to support them and I also wanted to have professional photos of my dogs,” she said. Andreotta was one of 28 dog owners Sunday and nearly an equal number at Shelby Farms who turned out last Saturday with their wallets for the

Memphis edition of Hottest Hounds, a black and white cofee table book of Memphis hounds. For $100, she gets a page in the book; 30 percent of the proceeds go to the Humane Society of Memphis and Shelby County. For $50 more, she got a CD of all the poses. Cassie Moore of Birmingham was running the impromptu outdoor studio at Rhodes and Overton Park on Sunday, lining up gregarious and gorgeous “fur babies” for friend and business partner Ann Wade Shreve, a Birmingham photographer. “We relied on Memphis Humane Society to advertise and market it for

we’d written the Humane Society a check for $5,000, and we’re still selling the books in Birmingham, so it’s an ongoing thing,” Moore said. “Our next photo shoot in Memphis is March 2930,” Moore said. “If you buy, you’re absolutely in the book.”

St. Agnes Stars take 15th in state By Ginger Whelan Special to The Weekly

The St. Agnes swim team, also known as the Bathing Beauties, had an impressive performance in the State High School Swimming and Diving Championships held earlier this month in Nashville. The St. Agnes swimmers have much to be proud of after performing in this highly competitive meet consisting of 127 teams and more than 800 swimmers across the state.

Hallie O’Bannon, Bailey Jenkins, Mary Catherine Merschat, and Anderson Roe, all new to the state scene, joined veteran state competitors Emma Grace Pecha and Zoe Whelan, to give season best performances in the 200 medley and 200 free relays. Pecha of Cordova and Whelan of Germantown swam personal best times and scored more points this year than last year, despite tougher competition and in a venue where numerous records were

In individual events with well over 70 competitors, Pecha placed fourth in the 500 free and sixth in the 200 free and Whelan placed fourth in the 100 butterly and 15th in the 200 individual medley. Their combined points helped the Stars to inish in 15th place out of 45 teams in the women’s division. The Shelby County Swim League sent 136 swimmers representing 18 schools to compete in the 2014 State High School Swimming and Diving

The entire team reaped the beneits of their hard work this past season. They swam with efort and heart,” said St. George’s assistant swim coach, Andrea Ballard. Sarah Acuf is the assistant director of communications for St. George’s.

Haven’t you heard about all of those great ski slopes in Indiana? No? Well the Scouts of Troop 270 found some at Perfect North Slopes in Lawrence, Ind. on their ski trip. In January, 24 Troop 270 Scouts packed up their gloves and gear, loaded two vans and braved the eight hour van ride to their destination, stopping overnight at the Presbyterian Church of Bowling Green, Ky., along the way. Upon arrival, Troop 270 found the slopes at Perfect North to be, well, “perfect.” With slope grades ranging from “bunny” to “double black” and lessons available for the inexperienced, everyone was able to ind a slope to match their level of proiciency. If you didn’t want to ski, then you could strap into a snowboard and join your fellow skiers on the “terrain” course.

Germantown Boy Scouts with Troop 270 had a fun time on the ski trip they recently took to Perfect North Slopes in Lawrence, Ind.

Skiing was principal activity of the weekend, however, these young men still found time to compose and lead a worship service — including music — at their host church, Hamline Chapel United Methodist.

Inspire Yourself

The Scouts also prepared a meal of chili and rolls on their last evening. The trek back to Germantown can best be described as loud, fragrant and sufused with tales of the weekend’s skiing ad-

ventures. There’s no question about it, the Scouts of 270 will anxiously await their next “perfect trip” to Perfect North Slopes. Nolan Cychowski is with Troop 270.

Houston, Ridgeway girls in Region 8 finals By Pete Wickham Special to The Commercial Appeal

For those into the Pick 4 lottery … might want to try the numbers 5-6-4-5. Ridgeway’s girls pulled of the diicult feat of defeating White Station for the third time, scoring a 56-45 victory in the Region 8-AAA semifinals at Central. And now the Roadrunners get a chance to settle the score with a Houston team that last week showed just how tough it can be. The Mustangs, who tripped up Ridgeway in their third meeting last week in the District 15AAA inals, earned themselves a date with the Roadrunners in Wednesday’s inal — thanks to a 56-45 win over Whitehaven. Ridgeway got 16 points from senior Ashley Jackson to equal its 28-3 mark from last season — which ended in a semiinal loss to Overton. “We know we want to do better than we did last year, and we’ve been striving for that chance,” Jackson said.

Houston (26-7) and Whitehaven (19-10) muddled through a second and third quarter where the two teams combined for 31 total points. But the Mustangs came out of the period with a 33-25 lead, got to the free-throw line early in the fourth quarter and hit 15 of their last 18 tries. Sophomore Jaida Roper had 20 points, including 5-of-6 free throws down the stretch. Senior Aysha Harris added 13 including nine in a inal period where she was 7-of-8 from the line — after missing four of her irst six. “I was glad for all those free throw drills about 30 seconds into the (fourth) quarter,” Harris said. Houston coach Chad Becker added, “We have a lot of individuals committed to doing the little things, like free throws.” Whitehaven got 14 points apiece from seniors Laka Blache and Tiara Coleman, but also struggled from the outside. Win or lose, both Houston and Ridgeway will advance to Saturday’s sectional playof games.

Twenty-eight down, two to go for the Briarcrest girls basketball team. The Saints booked another trip to the Division 2-AA state tournament last Friday and remained unbeaten, pulling away from the free-throw line late to defeat visiting Nashville Father Ryan Friday, 59-44. The Saints got a huge effort from Jasmine Cincore, a Nebraska signee. Settling down after her team started slowly, she scored 28 points, going 13 of 16 from the line. The Saints went 17 of 18 from the line in the fourth quarter to inally pull away from the pesky Irish (18-9). “The thing about Father Ryan is ... they force you to play ugly,” said Saints coach Lee Smith. “(Cincore) was trying to do too much. I just told her to settle down, ‘let us play with you.’ ” Said Cincore, “They’re scrappy. In the second half, we did a better job of inishing. (And) we felt like if we could control the boards, we’d control the game.” Brynn Holden scored 12 for the Saints, and twin sister Elise Holden added 11. Briarcrest will be joined at state this week by Northpoint, which advanced to the D2-A tournament for the second year in a row with a 47-44 victory over Franklin Road Academy. Memphis’ other private girls school hopefuls saw their seasons end. In D2A, Ezell-Harding defeated Harding, 48-34, Univer-

sity School of Nashville eliminated ECS, 59-35, and Knoxville Webb ended St. Mary’s season, 61-24. In D2-AA, Harpeth Hall ousted St. Benedict, 58-33, and Ensworth defeated St. Agnes, 48-23.

THREE BOYS TEAMS ADVANCE TO D2-AA SEMIFINALS The Division 2-AA boys tournament in Nashville this week might as well be called the Memphis Invitational. Three of the four teams in the tournament, which begins Friday at Lipscomb University, are from Memphis after CBHS, Briarcrest and MUS all won last Saturday. Josh Bougher scored 16 points and Brode McLaughlin added 13 as the Purple Wave (17-11) knocked of Chattanooga Baylor, 51-38. CBHS will face Nashville Ensworth in the semis. Briarcrest trailed by seven at halftime but rallied to defeat Montgomery Bell Academy, 55-45. Adam Pike scored 17 to lead the Saints (19-9), who will take on MUS on Friday in the semis. The Owls got 21 points from Bailey Buford — all on 3-pointers — to defeat Chattanooga McCallie, 56-33. ECS ONLY D2-A BOYS TEAM TO MAKE STATE Evangelical Christian School will represent Memphis in the D2-A boys tournament after grinding its way to a 33-15 victory over Donelson Christian.

When the inal buzzer had sounded and his team had inally put away Houston, White Station basketball coach Jesus Patino leaned back and breathed a sigh of relief. “The curse is lifted,” he said, following his team’s 55-51 victory over the determined Mustangs in the opening round of the Region 8-AAA tournament. For a program with as much history as White Station, the “curse” Patino referred to was a signiicant one.

White Station breaks ‘curse,’ corrals pesky Mustangs By John Varlas

lingering in their minds a little bit. They’re just teenagers and I think (at the start) maybe they were too tight. That’s my responsibility and in the second half we just had fun.” Houston, which ends the year 22-9, followed its game plan to perfection, slowing the pace down and packing it in. And — despite the fact the White Station never trailed in the contest — the Mustangs were able to stay within striking distance. “I think if you were to rank all the teams in the city, they would probably be fourth,” said Patino of the Mustangs. “I asked (assistant) coach Christopher) Simpson ‘how would you beat us?’ And he said, ‘slow it down and pack it in.’ ” But Chris Chiozza fueled a key spurt in the fourth quarter, lobbing passes to Ladarius Coleman and Leron Black for

easy scores and scoring twice himself to help the Spartans (29-1) stay in front. And sophomore guard Dillon Mitchell, who inished with eight points, made six free throws and came up with a big steal in the inal minute to seal it. “Dillon Mitchell is going to be as good as any of the guards who ever came through here, because of his demeanor and his poise,” said Patino. Senior Leron Black turned in another ine performance for the Spartans, scoring 15 of his 21 points in the irst half. Marlon Hunter scored 21 points to lead Houston. Connor Tipsord inished with 12 and Jerry Johnson Jr. added 10. In another 8-AAA quarterfinal, K.J. Lawson poured in 31 points as Hamilton eliminated Germantown, 86-73. Jake Miller scored 20 to lead

the Red Devils.

Holy Yoga Christian instructors stretch boundaries of tradition

Class members use traditional gear, such as yoga blocks and mats — with a special twist.

By Kathy K. Martin Special to The Commercial Appeal

Meet Jesus on your yoga mat. That is the mission of Holy Yoga, a Christ-centered practice of yoga that came to Memphis at Independent Presbyterian Church almost two years ago. This practice goes beyond the basics of traditional yoga, which focuses on physical postures, breathing and meditation toward unity with self, to physical worship of Jesus Christ and unity with Him, regardless of denomination. Lucy Forrester, who has taken Christian yoga classes for about ive years, said that she was initially apprehensive. “I was very skeptical of the practice of yoga, mainly based upon plain ignorance and my own assumptions,” she said. However, after trying a class, she was hooked. Dealing with some muscular and lexibility issues, Forrester, who is also a ive-year breast cancer survivor, said Holy Yoga helped her heal both emotionally and physically. Melanie Yarbrough, another faithful student, often felt intimidated by yoga. But she said she sees physical and spiritual improvements in herself. She posted on her blog some of her thoughts about the classes: “There’s no shame if you have to drop to your knees during a plank.” She sees Holy Yoga as a way to worship God, get it, meditate on Scripture and fellowship with other women. “I realize now that I am strong,” she said. “My body is capable of so much more than I give it credit for.” The class meets in Room 153 of the gymnasium building, which is in the back of Independent Presbyterian Church at 4738 Walnut Grove Road. Christian music plays throughout the hourlong class as the instructors Mindy Johnson and Molly Jo Taylor demonstrate poses and read Scripture. Johnson begins by asking participants to turn of their cellphones: “It’s time to disconnect with the world and connect with God.” A recent class focused on turning the heart to Christ. Related Bible verses were read aloud. The class concluded with prayer. Participants reclined on their backs with lavender masks over their eyes. The instructors quietly moved around the room, massaging lotion on feet and rubbing shoulders and arms as the soft music ended. Holy Yoga was launched in Phoenix, Ariz., in 2003 by Brooke Boon, who enjoyed yoga

Molly Jo Taylor, one of two certified Holy Yoga instructors in Memphis, received her training in Phoenix, Ariz., where the program began. Sessions include a reading from the Bible. She said Holy Yoga encourages filling the mind with Scripture, as opposed to emptying the mind, as in Eastern yoga.

but wanted to incorporate her Christian faith into her exercise. The concept came to Memphis when Taylor proposed the idea to Adrienne Hillyer, assistant director of recreation and itness ministries at Independent Presbyterian. Taylor, who had learned about Holy Yoga while living in Phoenix, said the whole process was God’s doing. She decided to become a certiied Holy Yoga instructor before moving to Memphis and four months after moving, she became an instructor at Independent Presbyterian.

“Holy Yoga is another way I spend time with Christ,” said Taylor, “Through the practice I’m able to still my heart and mind and connect with the Lord.” The main diference between Holy Yoga and traditional yoga, she said, is that Holy Yoga is about Jesus and illing the mind with the Bible as opposed to emptying the mind as said and done in Eastern yoga. “Holy Yoga is 100 percent yoga and 100 percent Jesus.” Hillyer, who has led a variety of exercise classes for more than

20 years at the church, said that Holy Yoga is the irst class that focuses completely on Jesus. “God has orchestrated this whole program, and we’re really excited to ofer a worshipful experience with a sense of community,” she said. The majority of participants aren’t members of the church, so she views the classes as a service to the community. As interest also begins to grow for men, Hillyer hopes to present a Holy Yoga class just for men and to also ofer more than one class in the evening. In addition, she is in the process of becoming certiied through a new Christian program, Revelation Wellness, which centers on living healthy and whole lives in Christ. “We’ll continue to offer our cardio classes, walking groups and other itness programs, but Holy Yoga has helped me look at our classes with a much more spiritual emphasis.” Taylor and Johnson are the only certiied Holy Yoga instructors currently teaching in the Memphis area. Johnson became a certiied instructor not long after experiencing the classes herself. One of the key beneits for her, both as a student and a teacher, is the growth she has experienced in her prayer life, as well as witnessing that same beneit in other participants. “My prayer life used to be like going to Sonic and pushing the button. I would come to God with my quick list of what I needed, but now I’m learning to be still and to listen to what God has to tell me.”

Nutrient-packed carrots provide healthy, versatile choice for all seasons, all eaters On a whim, I recently bought a 10-pound bag of carrots. I don’t have a juicer, so I’m not churning out carrot juice regularly, but I do like them for a snack. What can I say — I was at Costco, the carrots were organic and for a good price. Now, I’m dealing with the reality of eating my way through 10 pounds of carrots. Fortunately, carrots keep a long time when refrigerated, but I have other foods that require refrigerated space as well, so I’m trying to move them out quickly. I find that regularsized, whole carrots have a lot more sweetness than the washed and prepared “baby” carrots found bagged in the produce aisle. These aren’t baby carrots at all, but are simply carrots that have gone through a tube type of cutter that slices them and

smooths them into small, blunted cylinders. Carrots are well known for containing large amounts of beta-carotene, which gives them their rich color. Our bodies can convert beta-carotene into vitamin A, an important vitamin for immune system function, good bone health and for proper functioning of the visual process. Carrots have a wealth of other nutrients, too, including vitamin K, biotin, vitamin B6, copper and manganese. All of this, and only about 50 calories per cup, with virtually no fat. In a study from the

Good Health Memphis

Netherlands, published in 2011 in the British Journal of Nutrition, researchers categorized fruits and vegetables by color and looked to see what efect their intake had on incidence of cardiovascular disease. Researchers looked specifically at carrots, and found study participants who included at least 25 grams of carrots per day, or just under ¼ cup, showed statistically lower incidences of heart disease. Increasing the amount of carrots to 50-75 grams per day decreased the risk even more. The nice thing about carrots is that they have a wide appeal among both adults and children. If you get tired of munching on raw carrots, you can shred them into salads, or make salads where they are the main ingredient. Or, you can include them as a side dish, as they complement

a wide variety of entrees. I grew up eating boiled carrots, cut into rounds, seasoned with butter. It’s a very pleasing combination, and that is probably one of the reasons I was drawn to today’s recipe. In this recipe, the pan of carrots is covered for the irst 15 minutes of cooking, essentially steaming them a bit and softening them. Then the cover is removed and carrots are left to roast for the remaining time. This allows them to be tender, but still develop the caramelization that gives roasted vegetables their characteristic sweetness. The use of butter does add saturated fat, but it’s not excessive, and the lavor can’t be beat.

Early-bird gardeners can catch worms and more when they tune their radios to “In the Garden,” a weekly call-in show that airs from 6-8 a.m. Saturdays on WREC-AM 600. They might learn how earthworms work hard to improve their soil and, on a recent Saturday morning, how mealworms attract bluebirds to their yards. For co-host Kenneth Mabry, 54, the radio show is an extension of the conversations he has with customers at Dan West Garden Center on Poplar, where has been working since he was in high school. He is now its general manager. “Kenneth has an ever-friendly personality,” said Ferd Heckle, owner of the Dan West Garden Centers. “Every customer that walks in gets his attention. He knows plants, knows chemicals and knows the business. He’s a jewel.” His radio partner, Vador (Vada) Vance, 49, also has many years of garden center experience and currently works as a landscaper specializing in courtyard and container design as well as organic gardening methods. On a snowy morning about two weeks ago, local bluebird expert David Hill joined them in the studio. He discussed the importance of installing the right birdhouse and providing the right foods to attract the colorful birds to your

garden. In about a month when gardening season heats up, the phone lines light up with waiting callers. In the slower winter months, Vance does some advance preparation each week for a few timely subjects to discuss. No matter what the season, they always expect a telephone call from Paul Little, a nurseryman and member of several plant societies who like to spotlight upcoming garden events and lectures. “A lot of people who listen to them don’t belong to gardening organizations and would not get so much good information without the radio show,” Little said. Jamie Childers is another regular who calls to let listeners know about events put on by the Memphis Area Master Gardeners. “It’s a great way for us to get out our information,” he said. So what are some of the problems facing gardeners these days? Lacebugs that suck the juice from the leaves from azaleas have become prevalent, especially on weak plants and those sited in full sun, Mabry said. For organic controls, he recommends spraying the backs of the leaves with dormant oils now. The oil coats the leaves and smothers the eggs of the lacebugs. In early spring, you can kill them with a systemic leaf spray like acephate (Orthene) or a systemic soil drench like Merit (imidacloprid). Once the bugs are controlled, Mabry

says it’s important to boost the vigor of the plant by spreading compost and organic plant foods around its base. Be sure to provide enough water during hot, dry periods. Last week, Vance reminded listeners it is time to prune nandinas. “The tall stems remind me of girafe legs,” Vance said. “You can selectively prune the tallest ones back to the ground to renew the plant. And consider growing some of the shorter ones like Blush Pink. I love it.” Blush Pink is a compact plant that grows about 2 feet tall with typical nandina leaves that are pink when young and then turn bright purplish pink to red during fall and winter. Ideal for containers, they have no lowers or berries and require no pruning. During the show, the co-hosts urged listeners to take advantage of the mild day by working outdoors to get their gardens ready for spring. “It’s time to spread compost and put down some pre-emerge weed killers,” Mabry said. “You have to do it before you see those early-spring weeds and then apply it again in about 100 days.” As spring nears, Mabry is noticing an uptick in customers searching for seeds to start indoors and outside. “I see people looking at our big wall of seeds and daydreaming about all the beautiful things they want to grow in their gardens,” he said.

BOOKER LEIGH GARDEN TIPS

Don’t rely on winter to control insects

Gardeners hope the cold winter has helped to control the insect population, but maybe not. Insects can survive under very extreme conditions. Many insects have ways to avoid or tolerate the effects of cold. Some overwinter under plant debris; others burrow into the soil. Despite the cold, we’ll probably have problems with some insects this spring and summer. Here are some of the most common insects that attack our plants: ■ Scale insects are common on some of the euonymus shrubs (a small plant). This problem is easy to spot because the insects build a hard cover over themselves for protection. The covers look like tiny white or brown spots on the stems of the plants. The most efective way to control scale is to spray with dormant oil during the winter. Dormant oil can damage the plant if you spray when the temperature is too hot. Read and follow label directions. ■ Spider mites can be found on many landscape plants. As their name indicates, they are tiny and dificult to see. To check for spider mites, hold a white sheet of paper under a branch and tap the branch. If you see something on the paper that appears to be moving, you probably have spider mites. Your local garden center will have a spray to control them. The insects can be washed of the plant with a high pressure stream of water from your garden hose. ■ Aphids are small, softbodied insects that may become a problem in the summer. Aphids can be green, yellow, gray or pink. They suck the sap out of leaves, normally attacking their underside. Infested leaves turn yellow brown, curl and sometimes drop of. Aphids can be controlled with a chemical. Read and always follow directions before spraying. Beneicial insects, such as lady bugs or lacewing insects, can provide some control.

Mother-daughter team scavenges furniture, repurposes old stuf By Mary Beth Breckenridge Akron Beacon Journal

BARBERTON, Ohio — Pamela Andrella and Arica Neill’s business is about more than giving old furniture new life. It’s also about giving life new direction. The mother-daughter team runs Alter’d Relics: Design Studio, a home décor shop that specializes in repurposing vintage furniture. Only a matter of months ago, the business was just a distant dream, a maybewe’ll-do-that-someday kind of plan. But the two had their hands full with another project, preparing a nursery in Neill’s West Akron, Ohio, home for the child she and her husband were expecting. Mother and daughter combed tag sales for a dresser and glider to outit

the baby’s room and used their skills to turn those pieces into treasures. They crafted a perfect place to welcome the child they awaited so eagerly. Sadly, that nursery was never put to use. Neill went into labor on Aug. 5, more than six weeks before her due date. At the hospital, it was discovered that the baby had no heartbeat. The sudden death of Tobin Shane Neill left a hole in his mother’s heart. She struggled with her grief but found solace in the nursery she and her mother had created. As she sat there one day, she came to a realization: The creativity she had put into that room could be a therapeutic outlet. “I thought, there’s something else I need to do with this energy,” Neill recalled. She had a willing ac-

complice in her mother, a lifelong scavenger and longtime furniture restorer. Andrella, who lives in Green, Ohio, has seen the potential in other people’s castoffs ever since she dragged a monogrammed leather suitcase out of the neighbors’ trash the summer before she was in fourth grade. She once sold furniture she’d repurposed at Best Kept Secrets, the shop she ran for 10 years in the storefront next door to where Alter’d Relics is now. “Before there were pickers,” she said with a laugh, “I was doing that.” She is also no stranger to pain. At age 36, she lost her husband and was left alone to raise their four children, who at the time ranged in age from 2 to 9. She knew the consolation that came from work she enjoyed and the empathy of caring customers.

Alter’d Relics Design Studio owners Arica Neill (left) and her mother, Pamela Andrella, displayed their rescued furniture and décor items at their shop in Barberton, Ohio. Phil MAsturzo Akron BeAcon JournAl

She wanted the same for her daughter. They set up shop in an empty storefront in downtown Barberton, scavenging a counter and old doors to serve as a room divider from elsewhere in the building. They tore the covering of part of a wall to reveal brick and pulled up three layers of looring to get to the wood underneath. They shopped estate sales and resale shops for tired but good-quality furniture they could enliven with paint and a little vision.

After more than two months of work, they unveiled their business with an open house at the end of November. The shop sells vintage furniture and pieces Andrella and Neill have spruced up with paint, along with jewelry, home accessories and other goods created by a few local artisans. They also do custom work and sell Blue Minerals chalk paint powder, an additive that turns latex or acrylic paint into chalk paint. The shop is open only

sporadically, because Andrella and Neill operate it in addition to holding down full-time jobs — Andrella as assistant to the president of Summa Western Reserve Hospital, and her daughter as a medical secretary at Akron General Medical Center. The plan was to open the shop only one weekend a month, Andrella said. But the response has been so positive that the store is open a few hours Friday and Saturday, as well as a few days each month the two call “splurge dates.”

Ireland celebrates its saints with revelry and respect

A worshipper pauses at the altar of St. Valentine in the Carmelite Church in Whitefriar Street, Dublin. Although he was not Irish, remains of the 3rd century martyr are buried here, along with a tincture of his blood.

MIRACLE WORKERS round of miracles, Ciaran decided to build a monastery at Clonmacnoise, smitten, he said, by the beauty of the lush green plains and sweeping views of the river Shannon. First though, he had to settle a boundary dispute with a neighbor who ofered him land as far as he could throw his cap. After he uttered a prayer, a gust of wind swept Ciaran’s hat across the ields. To this day, a sudden squall in the midlands is sometimes called “Ciaran’s wind.” The neighbor was eventually made a saint as well — St. Manchan.

UBLIN — St. Patrick may have banished snakes and brought Christianity to Ireland, but perhaps his greatest feat was one of sheer endurance. After all, there were hundreds of other future saints roaming Ireland at the time, but Patrick is the one who gets the party. On March 17, Guinness will low from Malin to Moscow, the Chicago River will run green, and parades will be held worldwide to celebrate the 5th century preacher and patron saint of Ireland. “St. Patrick’s legacy is pretty impressive,” says historian Brian Lacey, “especially considering he wasn’t even Irish.” Patrick was British, captured at age 16 by a band of raiders and brought as a slave to Ireland. For six years he tended sheep on a remote mountain in County Antrim and wrestled with visions from God. After escaping, he went on to become a bishop who traveled throughout Ireland building churches, baptizing converts and performing countless miracles along the way. In recent years there have been calls to rein in the revelry and reclaim the religious aspects of the national holiday. Some are even attempting to boost the name recognition of other saints (early Irish records list as many as 1,700) and bring their stories to the attention of the world. There are hundreds of holy wells, sacred round towers and monastic remains all over Ireland, and it seems every town and village boasts its own special miracle maker.

GLENDALOUGH, COUNTY WICKLOW: ST. KEVIN At Glendalough (valley of two lakes) in County Wicklow, visitors can wander through the remains of a monastic settlement that for 500 years was one of Ireland’s greatest centers of learning. Founded by Kevin in the sixth century, the soaring round tower, churches and gravestones, as well as “St. Kevin’s Bed” — a man-made cave carved into the rock high over one of the lakes — creates a strikingly evocative scene and almost

St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Dublin was built in 1220 in honor of Ireland’s patron saint. Some wish to tone down the revelry connected to St. Patrick’s celebrations and return to the religious roots as well as bring more attention to the hundreds of other saints and relics of their deeds.

mystical sense of the past. Tour guides ofer tales of how Kevin cast a monster into the upper lake, and once, while fasting, allowed a blackbird to build a nest on his outstretched hand. The story goes that he kept his arm outstretched until the chicks hatched. At the time Ireland was dubbed “the Island of Saints and Scholars” and monastic settlements had to compete for pilgrims and patrons — causing in-house scribes to pen ever more dramatic tales of saintly powers.

KILDARE, COUNTY KILDARE: ST. BRIGID Brigid, for example, is said to have turned water into ale, diverted rivers from their courses and conjured up extra bacon for unexpected guests. When she decided to build a monastery in Kildare in

the 5th century, she needed land from a local chieftain. He grudgingly agreed to give her as much as her cloak would cover. Miraculously, the cloak kept spreading for as many acres as she wanted.

CLONMACNOISE, COUNTY OFFALY: ST. CIARAN In neighboring County Ofaly, visitors can explore the magniicent remains of the 6th-century monastic site founded by Ciaran in Clonmacnoise. It includes the ruins of a cathedral, two round towers, three Celtic crosses and the largest collection of early Christian gravestones in Western Europe. Ciaran’s path to sainthood was launched as a young man, when he supposedly restored life to a dead horse — just one example of his way with animals. After performing the usual

ST. PATRICK AND MORE There are hundreds of other saints and saintly shrines. At Fenit harbor in County Kerry in southwest Ireland, a large bronze statue depicts St. Brendan, the 6thcentury navigator who set of on an epic voyage across the Atlantic in a wooden boat covered with ox hides. Brendan is said to have landed in Newfoundland, and to this day his followers claim the saint was the irst to discover America. Relics of saints also abound. The preserved head of St. Oliver Plunkett — who was hanged, drawn and quartered in Britain in 1681 for his Catholic faith — is housed in an elaborate shrine at St. Peter’s Church in Drogheda, a port town north of Dublin. For centuries St. Laurence O’Toole’s 900-year-old heart was on display at Christ Church Cathedral in Dublin until, shockingly, it was stolen in 2012. And, though he wasn’t Irish, St. Valentine’s 3rd-century remains also ended up in Dublin, preserved in an elaborate reliquary at the Carmelite church on Whitefriar Street. Still, Patrick remains the star. This year Dublin will host a fourday extravaganza including beer fests, ceilis (Irish folk dancing), street performances and a lavish parade in honor of “La Fheile Padraig” (St. Patrick’s feast day). Downpatrick in Northern Ireland, where the saint is reputedly buried (and which has a huge visitor center dedicated to all things Patrick) is throwing a nine-day program of events. All this for a man who famously described himself as “a sinner, the most unlearned of men, the lowliest of all the faithful, utterly worthless in the eyes of many.”

CONGRATULATIONS TO THESE MEMPHIS-AREA HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WHO HAVE EARNED THE ACADEMIC ALL-STARS AWARD. Sydney Valadie

ACADEMIC ALL-STARS

St. Benedict High School Drama & Speech

About Academic All-Stars

Sydney, a senior, is an outstanding student, who is equally gifted in music, drama and public speaking. She holds a 4.0 weighted grade point average and scored 32 on the ACT. One of her most valuable talents in the drama department is her work behind the scenes as a seamstress, makeup designer and scenic painter. She was assistant director for “West Side Story” and has been submitted for consideration for the 2014 Orpheum Musical Theatre Awards for her work on costumes, props, sets and directing. As a performer, Sydney has demonstrated excellent vocal range and growth, venturing from Shakespeare to classic American drama to zany Russian farce. She quickly joined the school’s new Forensics Team and won first place in her first tournament. She has been inducted into the International Thespian Society, National Honor Society, National French Honor Society and Mu Alpha Theta. She was accepted to the Tennessee Governor’s School for Technical Theater. She auditioned and was cast as Glenda in “The Wiz” at the Bartlett Performing Arts and Conference Center. Sydney uses her stage technical skills to help several middle schools with their musical and dramatic productions.

Nicolas Kleiderer Northpoint Christian School Drama & Speech Nicolas, a senior, is a top student and talented, technical leader for the school’s theatrical productions. He holds a 3.467 unweighted grade point average and scored 26 on the ACT. He is the person who makes the actors and actresses look and sound great. His technical expertise has been directly responsible for the school’s multiple nominations for theatre awards. He personally was nominated for five Allie Awards honoring Best Sound Production and two Orpheum Awards for Best Student Technical Manager and Best Special Effects. His knowledge and skills are unsurpassed as he has become the “teacher trainer” on the school sound systems. After serving as an intern at the DeSoto Family Theatre, Nicolas became the sound engineer for a subsequent production. Although he performed on stage in elementary school, he quickly became curious and interested in the technical aspect of productions and never looked back. In addition, he has been a member of the school’s marching band and an assistant with ExploreZone, a group that demonstrates science principles to elementary students. Nicolas volunteers with the Olive Branch Food Pantry and Calvary Rescue Mission.

Grace Wetzel St. Mary’s Episcopal School Drama & Speech Grace, a senior, is a lover of the arts and an enthusiastic actress, singer, dancer and public speaker. She holds a 4.83 weighted grade point average and scored 2010 on the SAT. She was one of a small group of students selected to perform at the American High School Theater Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland. She played a key role in an original adaptation of “Twelfth Night,” a Shakespearean performance with a Southern twist. She has been tapped for the National Thespian Honor Society, National Honor Society, Cliosophic Society, Tri-M Music Honor Society and Beta Club. She also is an AP Scholar. With her upbeat personality and self-direction, Grace has played many roles on the stage. She was a tapper in “42nd Street,” a dancer in “The Wizard of Oz,” Charity in “Anything Goes,” and Joy in “Cinderella.” She also was in the ensemble and a Havana dancer in “Guys and Dolls” at CBHS. As a technical assistant she has worked the lights and sound for several lower and middle school productions. Co-captain of the Speech Team, Grace competes and helps organize competitions. Grace has volunteered through LeBonheur Children Hospital’s Volunteen Program and has been a counselor at Cardiac Kid’s camp. She also is S.T.A.R. (Students Take a Role) Council reporter for The Orpheum Theatre.

Bethany Neal Briarcrest Christian School Drama & Speech Bethany, a senior, is an exceptional student who maintains top grades while participating in two theatrical productions per year and performing with the school’s award-winning choirs. She holds a 4.5 weighted grade point average and has earned the Joseph A. Clayton Award for Academic Excellence the last two years. She has been inducted into the International Thespian Honor Society, National Honor Society and National Latin Honor Society. She participated in the Concert Choir one year, the Chamber and Women’s Choir for three years and OneVoice a cappella group for the last two years. In sixth grade with her first ensemble role in “Seussical Jr.,” Bethany fell in love with theatre and began landing supporting and leading roles. Most recently, she portrayed Amy in “Little Women” and Jane in Disney’s “Tarzan.” She also assisted with the Harrell Theatre’s production of “Oliver,” arranging hair and helping with costumes. Her unassuming servant attitude played a part in her winning The Weintraub Theatrical Award and a position as a School Ambassador. In addition, Bethany mentors younger students, who have come to love the theatre as she does.

Zac Leonard Germantown High School Drama & Speech Zac, a senior, is a creative and determined student who has a passion for the arts.

Rolanda Mack Covington High School Drama & Speech Rolanda, a senior, is a superior student who challenges herself in class daily. She holds a 4.0 grade point average and enjoys studying to learn not studying for a grade. When presented with new information, she usually grasps the concepts quickly and is eager to learn more. Realizing that she is gifted intellectually, Rolanda does not waste her talents but uses them to reach her goals and to assist her classmates. With an unusual ease in writing and speaking, Rolanda represents the school in the SCORE (State Collaborative on Reforming Education) competition. She won the Students Rise to the Challenge essay contest and was selected for SCORE’s student panel to discuss education with former Senator Bill Frist, M.D., chairman and founder of SCORE. She also was asked to be a speaker at the 2013 SCORE presentation with Governor Bill Haslam and Frist. In addition she received a scholarship from Frist. Rolanda is a member of the National Honor Society and Student Council. She represented the school at Tennessee Girls State and in the TOTAL Youth Leadership program. She volunteers at the Carl Perkins Center for the Prevention of Child Abuse.

Now in its 8th year, the Academic All-Stars program identiies and recognizes high school students in the Memphis metro area for their excellence in academics, leadership and community service.

Business GIVING BACK

CHAMBER CORNER

Businesses support Coins 4 Kids back. This affords an amazing opportunity to be a force for good both here in the Jeremy C. Mid-South Park and around the world. For example, International Paper, who donated more than $3.5 million in the Memphis community last year, decided to partner with the World Food Program USA in 2004 to create Coins 4 Kids, a program which focuses on providing nutritious meals to children in poverty stricken areas near Nairobi, Kenya. Thanks to employee, company, and

By Jeremy C. Park Special to The Weekly

Memphis consistently ranks as one of the most charitable cities in America. Southern hospitality, combined with faith-based family values, instills in us a sense of purpose and responsibility to help others in need. Something that makes our city unique, though, is the level of servant leadership with our corporations. Some of the world’s largest companies, like FedEx, AutoZone, International Paper, and ServiceMaster Company are based here in our backyard. Employees at all levels donate their time and resources to give

community gifts, more than $8 million dollars has been raised to provide about 70,000 school-aged children with healthy meals annually. Coins 4 Kids supporters collect bills and change in red collection cups, modeled after the red cups that the World Food Program fills with nutritious food for the children. When full, these cups — which can fit anywhere, like on your desk, in the kitchen, or in your car — hold enough money to feed two children for an entire school year. Learn more about Coins 4 Kids and consider filling your own red cup at wfpusa.org/coins 4kids.
