A new grocery store chain similar to Whole Foods will open in the old Kroger store on U.S. 64 in Lakeland and may also make a foray into Germantown.

Sprouts Farmers Market Inc. will open its irst Tennessee store in Lakeland, an oicial who spoke on condition of anonymity conirmed Aug. 26. It will provide a welcome addition to the city, which saw its tax base plummet when the Kroger store closed two years ago.

In Germantown, Boyle Investment Company is in the process of signing a tenant at the former 30,000-squarefoot Schnucks grocery store at Poplar and Forest HillIrene Road, but spokesmen declined to say whether the new tenant will be Sprouts.

The addition of Sprouts, the irst new chain to come to Greater Memphis in several years, marks the latest development in the changing landscape of area grocery stores as competitors attempt to cut into supermarket sales led by Walmart and Kroger.

Throughout the region, grocers are spending millions on supermarket overhauls.

Fresh Market opened in Midtown recently, following Whole Foods’ expansion in East Memphis in January and the recent decision by Whole Foods to locate in Germantown on Poplar.

Briarcrest senior Caroline Mohler demonstrated her music gifts last spring by being one of the top AP Music Theory students in the United States.

Her composite score of 5 was the irst in school history and is the highest obtainable.

Not only did she make a perfect score nationwide, but also, she scored 5 on every sub-score on the test, putting her near the top of the nearly 20,000 student musicians taking the grueling 3-hour exam.

“God has blessed Caroline with a wonderful tonal memory, which allows her to hear melodies and, in quick order, write them down. She has developed that skill to include

In the News HIGHER EDUCATION

U of M Collierville campus to open in January

By Trena Street Special to The Weekly

Education in Collierville continues to be a primary focus with the recent opening of Collierville Schools, plus renewed emphasis on higher education with the University of Memphis Collierville campus relocating to the historic district.

The new campus is a 27,000 square foot building on Poplar.

The project, approved by the Board of Mayor and Aldermen

in late 2013, is funded with bonds that the U of M will repay over 20 years, or $324,000 annually.

The $4.5 million project began mid-year and is scheduled to be completed by the end of the year.

Classes will begin January 2015.

The U of M has held classes in Collierville since 1999 on the grounds at Carrier Corporation.

Dan Lattimore, Ph.D., U of M Dean of University College said, “We look forward to having an even larger presence in Collierville now and especially being

in the heart of the town, just of the Square and will emphasize degree completion and graduate programs at the Collierville site.

Classes will begin Jan. 20, 2015.”

The U of M location is adjacent to Collierville Schools Administration Central Oices housed in the Collierville Historic High School on College Street. The history of the parcel of land, dedicated to education, can be traced by to the original purchase price of $50. The campuses sit on property held

by Bellevue Female College, Bellevue Conservatory, Miss Holden’s Seminary, Collierville High School and most recently Collierville Middle School.

“It is great U of M will be in the historic district. Because design matters to Collierville, especially in the historic district, we are very pleased the look and style of the new campus building is very similar to the adjacent historic structure. The Town staf has done an excellent job in relecting a similar vintage feel

with a new design,” Collierville Mayor Stan Joyner said.

Designated parking on the campus grounds face Poplar.

Peterson Lake Road will extend across Poplar to the parking area and there will be an additional traic signal. The additional 235 parking spaces around the square, should help to enhance the economic growth of the downtown district.

Trena Street is with the Town of Collierville’s public information oice.

3 G’s enrollment dips Rebound expected as optional program grows

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

When Jackson Campbell showed up for ifth grade at Germantown Elementary earlier this month, his core group of friends greeted him — as did several new faces and a smaller class.

“There’s diferent families and we have to meet new people, which is great,” said his mother, Leigh Campbell. “It is deinitely diferent.”

The smaller overall numbers and the diversity of new and former students come as the school still in the Shelby County Schools district moves on after being left out of the new Germantown Municipal School District. Germantown Elementary, Middle and High schools became SCS optional schools this year, a push to retain students who now are zoned for the municipal district.

The municipal district has boasted an enrollment more than 250 students above what was expected, but the three namesake SCS schools — still within the city limits of Germantown — have each seen a drop in enrollment from last year.

District and school oicials say they are

within an acceptable range and expect to rebound quickly. The most noticeable drop is at Germantown Elementary, where the district reported 609 students enrolled as of Aug. 21 compared with 771 students last year.

Principal Donna Jones said the numbers have risen daily with new enrollees, and the total number is now closer to 635 students. Projections were for about 650, and an ideal total, she said, is about 700.

“We’re pretty close to what they projected us to be,” Jones said. “We’re excited with our numbers and with the students that are here.”

Jones said she has not moved around any teachers, and actually has added staf because the optional program ofers foreign languages. Last year, Jones said, classes had up to 28 students. Now the class sizes typically are 18 to 22.

The advantage, as Campbell noted with her son’s class, is a smaller class size. “It is fantastic because they get a lot of individualized attention,” Campbell said. The disadvantage involves funding and resources.

State funding follows the student, so every student who leaves Shelby County Schools costs the district about $9,100.

At Germantown Middle, SCS reported a drop from 655 students last year to 625 students as of Aug. 21. The high school had the smallest drop as a percentage, from 2,030 students to 2,003.

District oicials said data was not avail-

able on where this year’s students live.

Last year, 57 percent of the Germantown Elementary students were Germantown residents.

Linda Sklar, the director of Shelby County’s department of optional schools and advanced academics, said diversity has always been high at a school like Germantown Elementary because its zoning radius included Germantown and Memphis. But the diversity is expected to grow, as is enrollment, with the expansion of the optional schools program.

Sklar said the district has had people from all over Shelby County enrolling in the three schools because of the optional program. In the elementary schools, the optional program includes foreign languages and learning about diferent countries. The high school has increased honors and advanced-placement oferings, as well as the pre-existing International Baccalaureate program.

“We’re all a little disappointed that our numbers are down, but we really do believe, next year, that isn’t going to be an issue,” Sklar said.

Jones added that the kindergarten enrollment is at 110 students, close to the projected 112 students. The strong kindergarten numbers show low enrollment will not continue, she said.

“It’s been a transition for the whole city,” Jones said. “But things are calm. We had a great start to school.”

In Lakeland, workers already are gutting the interior space of the former Kroger store at 9050 U.S. 64. If Sprouts pulls in as much sales tax revenue as Kroger, it could mean a boost of $500,000 a year for Lakeland.

Lakeland, which for decades depended on state shared revenues and sales tax, suffered when the town’s only chain grocery store moved into a bigger space across the street to the former Schnucks store — and into the Memphis city limits.

Donna Egan, spokeswoman for the Arizonabased Sprouts, said she could not comment about

any expansion eforts into the Memphis suburban market. She acknowledged the company is in “an expansion mode, including stores in the Atlanta area that opened this year.’’

Analysts say Sprouts, which has more than 170 stores, is focused on attracting shoppers who are looking for bargains.

At the Lakeland location on U.S. 64, only the interior door of the former Kroger entrance remained standing last Wednesday as electrical conduit dangled from the ceiling and debris was piled in the middle of the open space.

Lakeland City Manager Chris Thomas would not conirm whether the new tenant is Sprouts, but said workers are gutting the interior of the old Kroger store now. “They are getting ready for the tenant to do their stuf in November.

We expect they will open in spring.”

He added: “We’re excited. It’s going to be great for the area.”

Allen C. Gardner returned to Memphis from Los Angeles to be in a movie “Bad, Bad Men,” which was being shot in and around Memphis last week. Here he and actress Maria Waslenko work on an awkward romantic scene of the two in a bar with friends, being filmed at The Fox & Hound on Sanderlin.

‘BAD, BAD MEN’ Will former classmates Ellis’ and Gardner’s latest efort be a good, good movie?

By John Beifuss beifuss@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2394

Filmmakers Brad Ellis and Allen C. Gardner — who this week inished shooting a Memphis comedy titled “Bad, Bad Men” — have worked together for 19 years, which is perhaps especially impressive when you consider that Ellis is 34 and Gardner is 33.

This friendship that became a creative partnership began in 1995 at Houston High School in Germantown, where they collaborated on such projects as an unauthorized — which is to say, happily amateur — remake of John Carpenter’s signature horror classic, helpfully titled “Halloween 1998.”

That ilm was in large part a slavish shot-byshot learning experience, made with enthusiasm and youthful conviction, if not a lot of craft. More important than its quality was the fact of its existence.

“A lot of people will not inish their irst feature ilm or inish their irst script, so there’s something about inishing that’s important,” Gardner said.

“We said, ‘We can do this.’

Knowing that was very liberating.”

From liberation to kidnapping: “Bad, Bad Men,” the new ilm from Gardner (star, writer, co-director, co-producer) and Ellis (co-director, co-producer) is the story of a day in the unfulilled life of a Memphis Realtor named Josh (Gardner), whose escalating war of wills and pranks against a group of bullies leads to the kidnapping of his new bar acquaintance, a sexy young woman (Los Angeles-via-Canada actress Maria Waslenko).

Described by Gardner as “a ridiculous idiot who’s kind of a hothead,” Josh still lives at home with his mother, a fact that’s especially humiliating considering that his day job requires him to show clients luxury homes he can’t afford. His comic sidekicks and co-workers are played

by Memphis actor Drew Smith and Los Angeles ac-

tor Matt Mercer.

“It’s like ‘Oice Space’ meets ‘Horrible Bosses,’” said Deputy Film Commissioner Sharon Fox O’Guin.

The Memphis & Shelby County Film and Television Commission provided some of the assistance that enabled “Bad, Bad Men” to be produced on a microbudget of less than $20,000.

Mercer, 34, cited older movies than O’Guin’s. He said he was attracted to the script because it reminded him of Martin Scorsese’s “After Hours” (1985) and Blake Edwards’ “Blind Date” (1987). “I’m a big fan of the overnight comedy of errors,” Mercer said.

“Bad, Bad Men” is the 10th ilm Ellis and Gardner have made together, but the irst they co-directed.

“They key of each other real well,” said Mercer.

“It’s nice to see them work together,” added Smith.

Apparently, it’s also sometimes amusing. “We use a lot of egg crates to bring them up to the same height,” joked Smith, referring to the fact that Ellis is 5-foot-7 — “That’s the same height as Tom Cruise, by the way,” Ellis hastened to add — while Gardner, whose boyish ranginess suggests John Krasinski, is 6-foot-5.

While many local ilmmakers working on very low budgets seem inluenced by the art house or the grindhouse, Ellis and Gardner and their collaborators create movies that would be at home in a commercial multiplex, if only they were glossier and contained name actors.

“Act One” (2005), directed by Ellis and written by and starring Gardner, is a romantic comedy-drama about an immature screenwriter confronted by the woman he’s impregnated.

“We got so frustrated, because when ‘Knocked Up’ came out, we looked like a knock-of, but we were there irst,” Ellis said.

The duo’s most expensive and widely distributed effort, by far, was “Daylight Fades” (2010), a spooky fable about Bluf City bloodsuckers. In development before “Twi-

This is the 10th movie that Brad Ellis (left, in sunglasses) has made with his former Houston High classmate Gardner. It took 16 days to shoot the micro-budget movie.

light” and “True Blood” made hemoglobin the pop culture lavor of the month, “Daylight Fades” beneitted from its place on the vampire bandwagon but also was dismissed by those who assumed it was behind rather than ahead of the trend.

Although Gardner makes most of his movies in Memphis, he moved to Los Angeles in 2000, a year after his high school graduation, to pursue acting. To inance his movie and theater projects, he works various jobs, basically making enough money to enable him to transform his next script into an actual production.

“I never had any interest in doing anything else,” Gardner said. “I don’t believe in a fallback plan; I never have. I don’t see the point of it, because I know what makes me happy.”

Ellis, meanwhile, stayed in Memphis, and he and another local ilmmaker, Sean Faust, formed New School Media, a successful multimedia production company for commercials, corporate videos and other projects.

“Bad, Bad Men” marks the irst collaboration between New School Media, Open Dialogue Productions — a Los Angeles company established by Gardner and Gabe Arredondo — and Old School Pictures, the ilmmaking collective formed by Houston High Class of 1999 buddies Ellis, Gardner, Matt Weatherly (who now lives in Denver) and the late Mark Norris.

Without Ellis, Arredondo and Gardner shot their previous feature, the comedy-drama “Being Awesome” (2013), in Memphis rather than Los Angeles.

Arredondo, 31, said L.A.

is prohibitively expensive even for very low-budget projects, thanks to the high cost of the permits and fees required in an entertainment capital where moviemaking is a business, not a novelty.

The 16-day “Bad, Bad Men” shoot wrapped last Sunday, with the contributions of some of Memphis’ more familiar crew members, including director of photography Ryan Parker, sound man Gregory Gray and camera operator Drew Paslay. A typical day was Aug. 21 at The Fox & Hound at 5101 Sanderlin, where a dozen crew members and actors showed up at 4:30 a.m., in hopes of inishing just before the sports tavern opened for business at 11.

Ellis and Gardner are always hopeful that each film will reach a wider audience than the one before, and they’re enthusiastic about “Bad, Bad Men.” The movie is slated to be ready for screening by the end of the year, and its festival run likely will start in the spring. The ilmmakers would like it to receive a limited theatrical run, but more likely they will try to ind viewers through such video-on-demand platforms as Hulu, Netlix and Amazon Instant.

Gardner admitted the competition for viewers’ time is intense, but added: “I don’t even think about that. I think in terms of community as opposed to competition. I love meeting other ilmmakers, I’m all about us coming together and making new projects happen.”

Singer Joel Herold crows his supremacy from atop a treehouse at Shelby Farms last September during a special performance of the original mini-opera “The Playground King” as part of Opera Memphis’ 30 Days of Opera.

Singers popping up all around Memphis for 30 Days of Opera

By Jon W. Sparks

30 DAYS OF OPERA

Special to The Commercial Appeal

As Ned Canty puts it: “We’re turning the opera house inside out.”

When Canty came to Memphis 3½ years ago as general director of Opera Memphis, he saw a need to shake things up, rattle some assumptions and roll out the music. An idea that he started two years ago was 30 Days of Opera, a plan to have at least one public opera-related event every day for a month.

Canty acknowledges the wide preconceptions of opera and that breaking those down is tough.

“Rather than wait until someone wakes up one day and decides to go to ‘Don Giovanni,’ we thought to go out to diferent neighborhoods and put an opera singer in front of them and let them hear the miracle of the unaccompanied and unampliied human voice.”

Set an opera singer on a street corner or in a farmers market and it gets real; performers don’t all wear Viking helmets but are people with a gift who use that gift. And they’re easy to talk to.

This September’s lineup is designed to be lexible.

Some of the events are planned out, others are still being worked on and are likely to show up spontaneously — like a lash aria performance.

Plans include a performance at the Levitt Shell, a film at the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art, a serenade for commuters at Sam Cooper Boulevard and East Parkway, a performance during the Central Gardens Home Tour as well as at the Germantown

Here are the events scheduled so far. Check operamemphis. org for updates and other information.

Friday: An Operatic Salute to Memphis Arts, 7 p.m., Water Tower Pavilion, Broad Avenue Saturday: Germantown Festival, 10:30 a.m.

Sunday: Central Gardens Home Tour, 11 a.m.

Monday: Commuter Serenade, 5 p.m., corner of Sam Cooper and East Parkway Sept. 11: Presenting Wes Anderson’s “Moonrise Kingdom,” 7 p.m., Memphis Brooks Museum of Art in Overton Park Sept. 12: Memphis Repertory Orchestra Open Rehearsal, 7 p.m., Buckman Performing & Fine Arts Center, Perkins Extended and Walnut Grove Road Sept. 13: Cooper-Young Festival, all day Sept. 14: Death by Aria, 2 p.m. University of Memphis Harris Hall Sept. 17: WKNO Live Lunch, 11:30 a.m., 7151 Cherry Farms Road in Cordova; food trucks and an operatic salute to the 2014/15 Memphis arts season Sept. 20: Memphis Farmers Market, 11 a.m., Central Station Sept. 23: WKNO preview party for “Don Giovanni,” 6:30 p.m., Clark Opera Memphis Center Sept. 26: Special performance of “Moving Up in the World” from Ghosts of Crosstown, 7 and 8:30 p.m., adjacent to National Civil Rights Museum on South Main Sept. 27: Opera at the Levitt Shell, 7 p.m.

Sept. 28: Screening of “Sweeney Todd” with panel discussion on opera vs. musical theater, 3 p.m., Playhouse on the Square

Festival and the CooperYoung Festival.

“The initial nugget of an idea came from talking about how the opera company model worked,” Canty says. “For years, we’d been working to present three programs a year to give eight or nine hours of engagement with the audience.

“It seemed out of whack to spend 100 percent of our efort trying to get around 6,000 people for nine hours. What, we thought, if we spend a small portion of that trying to get 50,000 people for 10 minutes? It’s a simple proposition we’ve built on and grown.”

of people saw 30 Days of Opera and came to our shows. But I really treasure it when I see a tweet where someone says they went to the dog park and heard some opera and ‘I love this city!’ ” It’s good for the opera and good for the city.

“And it helps expand the deinition of our mission.”

Memphis, says “the strategy of 30 Days of Opera popping up in all parts of the city at diferent events and with various partnerships is really smart.”

Rouse, who will become president and CEO of the arts funding organization next year, says, ArtsMemphis supported the first 30 Days of Opera in 2012, awarding an enhancement grant for audience building.

Opera Memphis has a $1.5 million budget this year.

Canty says it’s important to have a broad range of activities and cover a lot of ground geographically.

The appearance at the Levitt Shell on Sept. 27 is what Canty calls a pinnacle experience — “people choose to come hear opera singers and nonopera singers and all diferent kinds of Memphis music.”

But sometimes, it’s like drive-by opera. “One of my favorite things is Sept.

8,” Canty says. On that day, a group of singers will gather at Sam Cooper Boulevard and East Parkway, warbling their hearts out. “Just driving by, you may get the experience of someone singing Puccini at you.”

The Thompson queen storage bed, made in Brooklyn by UrbanGreen, features 12 drawers. Beds with underneath storage, once the solution for kids’ clutter, have become adult-functional, especially in small apartments with limited storage.

Crate & Barrel’s Bowery queen bed has drawers underneath for storage. It retails for $2,399, defined by clean lines with built-in storage equal to a six-drawer dresser.

estoration Hardware’s catalogs might be getting bigger, but its furniture, if you can believe it, is shrinking. In 2012, the retailer responded to growing demand for lighter, leaner pieces by introducing a line of scaled-down furnishings.

This year, its Small Spaces catalog is organized by city and residence: Los Angeles Bungalow, Boston Brownstone, etc.

It’s a sharp strategy. Census data show that young people, often in search of job opportunities, are locking to urban areas where the apartment is king. But among the many limitations of living in a 400-square-foot studio is the lack of storage options. To accommodate, retailers are capitalizing on a piece previously relegated to children’s rooms and college dorms: the storage bed.

“Storage beds have become a huge priority for us,” said Janice Simonsen, a spokeswoman for Ikea USA who has worked with the company for 20 years. “We’d always had under-bed storage options like bins and whatnot, but now people want built-ins. It’s cleaner, and it looks more expensive.”

Beds are full of storage potential. Thanks to improved mattress technology that has eliminated the need for bulky box springs, an extra dresser’s worth of space has opened up underneath. Storage beds — which typically have four or six drawers between the mattress and the loor — take advantage of it.

At Ikea, storage and daybed sales are booming, having almost doubled since 2011. The company

The Atom storage bed by Nexera; retailers are capitalizing on the demand for storage beds, a type of furniture previously relegated to children’s rooms and dorms.

A storage bed from IKEA’s popular Malm line costs around $450 with practical storage space revealed by lifting the slatted base.

has expanded its options from three storage beds to six, with a seventh coming in August. Its most popular line is Malm, which has two lightweight storage beds that cost between $250 and $500.

One has a mattress that lifts up revealing trunk space underneath.

Another, released this year, has longer legs to allow for larger drawers.

Timothy Beaver, who works in sales for IKEA’s bedroom furniture department, said it’s relatively new for adults to buy storage beds for themselves, rather than for children’s rooms. The

sales really started to spike only within the past three years, he said.

Of course, beds with built-in drawers are also a response to style trends. Under-the-bed bins are tough to pull of after college graduation, and bed skirts feel like a relic of the ’90s.

As they’ve gotten more popular, storage beds have also become cheaper. Even though they existed 20 years ago, Simonsen points out that they were “custom-built and terribly expensive.” But as massmarket retailers such as Crate & Barrel and West Elm have started

manufacturing their own versions, prices have dropped. Pottery Barn now makes a handful of storage beds, some with interchangeable headboards, most of which cost less than $2,000. At lower-end retailers such as Ikea and Walmart, beds with built-in drawers can cost as little as $120.

“I’ve seen a huge uptick in city clients who want small units and beautiful views,” said Elizabeth Cross-Beard, an interior designer with Jenkins Baer Associates in Baltimore. “With apartments, the loor plans are pretty set, so you’ve got to work with what you’ve got.”

Cross-Beard has had several clients with storage beds, particularly families. “They make cleanup so easy,” she said. “You toss everything in. It takes a minute.”

Although Restoration Hardware doesn’t carry storage beds, Cross-Beard recommends the brand’s daybeds, which have a pop-out trundle hidden behind a panel in the bed’s base. They’re a convenient option for people who don’t have room for a second bed or sleeper sofa and want to invest in something that will last, she said.

Beaver points out that storage beds aren’t necessarily just for those living in cramped quarters.

“We have king-size storage beds,” he said. “Why not utilize wasted space under your bed?”

There are other ways to save space in the bedroom if you’re willing to get inventive. Designers often suggest “looking up,” or considering vertical space for shelving. Some units, such as Atlantic Furniture’s Captain’s Bookcase children’s bed or Prepac’s Sonoma bed, have headboard cabinet storage that can look custom-made (with much lighter price tags).

But tread lightly; if a bed has too many drawers and shelves, you’ll start to feel like you’re curling up in a media cabinet.

Cross-Beard says to keep it simple. “It’s true with clutter, with design and with functional furniture, less is always more.”

Watering is one of the basic requirements for a healthy lawn. Telling you how much water to apply and how often would be simple, if there was one type of soil. Different types of soil take up and hold water diferently; sandy soil drains faster than clay soil.

Good Health LESLIE SCHILLING FOOD CLUES

Eating ‘for two’ bad for you AND baby

By Leslie Schilling

Experienced coaches can provide help to moms before, during and after birth

Memphis doula Amy Coontz welcomes baby Grayson Bankart into the world after successfully coaching her clients Becky and Hunter Bankart through his birth.

ROCHELLE TALTON CELEBRATE THESE MOMENTS PHOTOGRAPHY

Happy birth days

Special to The Commercial Appeal

When you’re expecting, planning for the future and the needs of your new bundle of joy can ill your mind almost immediately.

However, planning for a healthy pregnancy can start long before conception. It’s important to think about the things you can do to maintain a healthy lifestyle before pregnancy so that when you get the news, you’ll have a healthy head start.

First, if you’re of childbearing age and there is a possibility you may become pregnant, it is a good idea to go ahead and take a daily prenatal vitamin. Development of the nervous system is well underway by the time many women ind out they are pregnant. With this in mind, the extra folic acid provided by a prenatal vitamin is recommended to help brain development and for the prevention of neural tube defects. In addition, prenatal vitamins provide extra iron to aid in development and help prevent anemia (a common cause of fatigue during pregnancy).

Get a move on it! Studies suggest that women who are active before and during their pregnancy have greater stamina and a lower perceived efort during childbirth. While it’s recommended to stay active and exercise during pregnancy, it may not be a good idea to start a new and strenuous routine once you ind out you’re expecting. Having an activity routine that you can stick with prior to conception is a good indicator that you’ll keep it up during your pregnancy. Of course, there is no one-size-its-all exercise strategy, so check with your physician about the level of exercise appropriate for you.

It’s time to drink up — water of course. This is an important habit for everyone, yet particularly important for a pregnant woman. In the irst trimester the body experiences large increases in blood volume to support the baby’s development.

Maintaining hydration is important throughout pregnancy and during the breast-feeding stage to help support increased luid needs for milk production. Carry a reillable water bottle daily and aim to reill it at least a couple times throughout your day.

With all of the increased needs during pregnancy it’s no wonder many women feel like they need to “eat for two.” This common misconception can lead to overeating, increased rate of weight gain and potential complications. It’s important to eat intuitively and intelligently. Eating intuitively suggests that you eat when you have physical signs of hunger and stop when you’re satisied. Eating intelligently, in my opinion, means that you make an efort to incorporate foods of high nutritional value to get the foods you need.

Eating based on hunger, and not an “eating for two” myth, can keep pregnancy weight gain in check.

So whether you’re on the road to pregnancy or not, I hope you’ll ind these tips helpful. Don’t forget, healthful behaviors and self-care always start with a plan.

By Erinn Figg Special to The Commercial Appeal

Athletes and even professionals know that a little guidance from a great coach goes a long way. However, they’re not the only ones tapping into the wisdom of others who have been there, done that and done it well.

Several mothers in the Mid-South are hiring coaches, too. Genevieve HillThomas is one of them. During and after the birth of her now 5-month-old daughter Gwendolyn, Hill-Thomas utilized the services of doulas. Doulas are trained professionals who provide physical, emotional and educational support to mothers before, during and after a birth.

Doulas typically fall into two categories, birth doulas and postpartum doulas, although there also are antepartum doulas who ofer support during high-risk pregnancies, as well as an emerging category of doulas who care for the elderly and critically ill patients.

Hill-Thomas and her husband learned about doulas during a natural childbirth class taught

by Sarah Stockwell of BirthMemphis Childbirth Education Services. Currently, there are more than a dozen birth doulas in the Mid-South and only two postpartum doulas.

“After hearing Sarah teach us about informed consent and the range of birthing choices available, I decided I really wanted an advocate during the birth to help me voice what I was and wasn’t comfortable with and also to explain any procedures to me that I didn’t understand,” Hill-Thomas said.

The word “doula” originates from an ancient Greek word meaning “a woman who serves.”

While doulas are trained in the physiology of birth, their role is not to give medical advice or take the place of an existing support system. Most commonly used by women who choose natural childbirth, the birth doula provides the necessary information to help an expectant mother prepare and carry out a birth plan. Present during the entire birthing process, she also helps facilitate communication between the laboring mother, her partner and her medical providers.

“The goal is to let women know there are options and choices you can make while you’re in the hospital,” said doula Amy Coontz, owner of Cordova-based Your Birth Your Way Professional Doula Services (yourbirthyourway. weebly.com) and a mother of ive. “You don’t have to just lie in the bed with monitors on, having contractions. My job is to make sure that my client is conident that her wishes are going to be heard.”

Coontz says women — including herself — sometimes get talked into epidural shots or induced labor that they later regret. A doula can help a mother stick to her original birth plan.

Constant reassurance and coaching also can relieve pain and anxiety.

COURTESY OF BETH HAYES

Postpartum doula Beth Hayes, with her son, Mitchell, 2, and daughter, Olivia, 5, has a background in social work that complements her role of coaching new mothers. While the role of postpartum doula is a popular one in some states, Hayes is one of only two postpartum doulas in Memphis.

for Hill-Thomas, who now gives her rave reviews.

“It was invaluable having her there because, as a irst-time mom, once you get in the midst of the birthing process, you tend to forget what you’ve learned,” HillThomas said. “Amy was wonderful at coaching me. And then when the doctor inally came in, it was a diferent doctor in the practice and she didn’t really know my birth wishes. Amy was able to tell her and work with her incredibly well.”

Dr. Heather Donato, an obstetrician and gynecologist at McDonald Murrmann Women’s Clinic in Germantown and an instructor at University of Tennessee Health Science Center, says she and many of her fellow doctors support the use of doulas.

“For many natural childbirth patients, I think a doula can be a great source of psychological support. She’s someone the patient trusts, she’s in the room with her the whole time and she’s attended several births and can reassure the patient that what she’s experiencing is normal,” Donato said. “In my group, we don’t mind if our patients bring doulas as long as

they’re not trying to interfere with any of our medical recommendations.”

Coontz’s doula services include an initial interview, two to four prenatal visits, 24-hour on-call services once the pregnancy reaches 37 weeks, continuous support during labor and one postpartum visit. Should a mother decide she needs more backup after the baby is born, she can opt for a postpartum doula, a decision HillThomas also made.

A postpartum doula provides a new mother with education and support, usually during the irst six to 10 weeks of a baby’s life. Besides teaching the essentials of new motherhood, she also can assist with newborn care and even meals and light housekeeping.

“It’s a huge period of adjustment for these families,” said doula Beth Hayes, owner of Memphis-based Homecoming Postpartum Services (homecomingdoula.com) and a mother of two. “I help guide them through what’s normal.

“The biggest diference between a nanny or baby nurse and a postpartum doula is the nanny is there to be a child care

provider,” said Hayes. “I’m there to care for the mother.”

Hill-Thomas said Hayes made a huge diference in her and her husband’s lives, particularly because their parents live in other states and they had no local support system.

“You’re so worried about your child and there are so many things you haven’t learned, so to have Beth come over and assure you that yes, this is normal for a newborn and to give you information to make better decisions, it was a huge relief,” she said. “She would also come in, look around and know exactly what we needed. The next thing we knew, the dishes were done, she fed us, she put new sheets on our bed and stocked our bedside table with water bottles and healthy snacks. It was fabulous.

“I highly recommend both types of doulas,” said Hayes, “and if we ever get pregnant again, I will not hesitate to call both Amy and Beth in a heartbeat.”

The Shelby County Historical Commission recently held the annual Shelby County History Awards Dinner in recognition of distinguished members of eight local history organizations. The event was held at Hillwood Hall-Davies Manor with Shelby County Mayor Mark Luttrell as the featured speaker. A “State of the County History” was presented by Shelby County Historian and Commission chairman Jimmy Ogle.

Ashley Carver, director of the Morton Museum of Collierville History and Brooke Mundy, collections/special projects coordinator attended. “It was a great opportunity for us to meet and learn from others who have the shared goal of preserving history. And, we had the chance to let them know about the many exhibitions and events we have at the Museum,” Carver said.

Several partner organizations made recognition awards, including Collierville Town Planner Jaime Groce on behalf of Main Street Collierville, who honored businessman, volunteer and Collierville resident Scott Rozanski.

Groce said, “Generations of folks have worked to protect Collierville’s heritage.

ARLINGTON 24, COLLIERVILLE 17

Hard-fought game Dragons can’t stop Tigers quarterback

By John Varlas varlas@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2350

Arlington coach Chris Wiley usually isn’t a fan of playing freshman, especially at the most important position on the ield.

But as he said about Tate Kolwyck last Friday, “He’s not your ordinary freshman.”

Making just his second varsity start, Kolwyck turned in an extremely poised performance, throwing three touchdowns passes to lead the Tigers, ranked eighth in The Commercial Appeal’s Dandy Dozen, to a 24-17 victory over visiting Collierville.

“It was a good hard-fought game,” said Wiley. “It was one of those ones where you hate to see anyone lose. This is a huge win for us.”

Star turns: Kolwyck shook of an early interception that set up a Collierville touchdown to complete 22 of 30 passes for 227 yards.

He threw scoring passes of 18 yards to Bryan Lewis, 40 yards to Everett Mitchell and 16 yards to Jackson Boring.

The last touchdown came late in the third and put Arlington up 21-14 and capped an 80-yard drive that saw Kolwyck complete passes to four diferent receivers. “(The biggest diference from last week) was just calming my nerves and not rushing things,” said Kolwyck. “On the interception, I just ran over and made the tackle. I didn’t let it get in my head.”

Said Wiley: “He’s just rock solid. He has steel emotions and he and I are getting on the same page. He’s starting to igure it out.”

Turning point: Arlington (2-0) turned in a nice defensive performance against a Collierville team that had moved the ball well in its season-opening win over Bolton.

With Collierville trailing 24-17 late, Alex Hicks marched the Dragons into the red zone. But Sidney Austin picked of the senior near the goal line to end the threat.

Both of Collierville’s scores came as the result of short ields. They drove 10 yards to score on Hicks’ pass to Peyton McKay after Cameron Doyle intercepted Kolwyck in the irst quarter. In the second, Hicks punched it in from the 2 to cap a 30-yard drive that was set up by a bad punt snap.

“I think we stopped them what, two or three times in the red zone?” said Wiley. “I think we probably gave up more passing yards than we would have liked but we had some big stops.”

Extra point: Arlington played without standout senior running back Joseph

Sports ST. BENEDICT 35, EVANGELICAL CHRISTIAN SCHOOL 24

SBA rides burst to win St. Benedict improves to 2-0 with win over ECS

By Bill Sorrell Special to the Weekly

With a defense that St. Benedict football coach Mike David called “amazing” and a multiple ofense that senior quarterback Mark Kovacs directed to more than 300 yards, the Eagles’ 35-24 victory over Evangelical Christian School Friday at SBA did more than double their win total from last year: It may have awakened future opponents.

“I look forward to a lot of teams sleeping on us because of our record (1-10) last year and use that as motivation.

We are not going to have a season like that. We can’t let that happen again,” said SBA wide receiver Tyler Currie, who scored on a 54-yard pass from Kovacs in the second quarter and inished with four receptions for 82 yards.

Watching his team limit ECS to 34 yards rushing for the game (a 1.7 per-rush average), a negative 20 yards rushing in the irst quarter and 1:28 time of possession in the fourth quarter, David said, “It’s just amazing the transformation of the team from last year to this. We are already 2-0 and that is a credit to what these guys have done in the of season.

“We are playing everybody we did last year. We are not talking revenge we just want to show people who we are and I think we are doing that right now. We are happy to get a win. ECS is a great football team and they are going to have a great season.”

Star Turns: Calling it “The Battle of Germantown Parkway,” ECS coach Geof Walters said “crucial mistakes” that provided SBA late scores did his Eagles (1-1) in. The loss was his irst to SBA. They are not regular opponents.

SBA turned two fumble recoveries into touchdowns in the fourth quarter. Nesto Rivas recovered a fumble at the ECS 20 with 9:31 left and Colton Cochran ran for a 1-yard score 20 seconds later.

Peter Wagner, who kicked ive extra points, gave the Eagles a 28-17 lead.

After Michael Neely recovered a fumble on ECS’ next possession at the ECS 17-yard line, Kovacs threw a 15-yard touchdown pass to Joey Magniico to put SBA ahead 35-17.

Substituting for ECS senior quarterback Alex Smith, Keegan Westbrook, a sophomore, later found Zack Genereaux for a 40-yard touchdown pass. With 7:44 left ECS pulled within 35-24 after Chandler Williams’ PAT.

Senior quarterback Mark Kovacs threw for 3 touchdowns and over 200 yards to help St. Benedict improve to 2-0 on the season.

SBA tight end Brennan Ryan sets sail for the end zone during last Friday’s 35-24 win.

“An early loss, you can learn from. We had some signiicant injuries tonight and coming into the game. We had three starters out. That is no excuse. My hat’s of to St. Benedict and Mike. They did a great job getting their guys ready.”

Smith was sidelined in the third quarter with a knee injury that Walters said was a “twisted knee.”

Smith completed 12 of 23 passes for 140 yards including a 47-yard touchdown pass to Genereaux that tied the game at 14 in the second quarter.

Genereaux had 85 of ECS’ 180 receiving yards.

Turning point: Cochran, who scored his irst touchdown on a 1-yard run after a 10-play, 87-yard drive, was the game’s leading rusher with 99 of his team’s 106 net rushing yards.

His touchdown put the Eagles on top 21-17 after ECS had taken a 17-14 lead on a 34-yard ield goal by Williams with

St. Benedict linebacker Colton Cochran and the Eagles defense kept Drew Croegaert and the ECS running game in check. SBA held ECS to 34 yards rushing.

2:31 left in the third quarter.

“The line started blocking well and started giving me holes and that opened up the passing game. We just got it going,” said Cochran.

Said Currie, “I told the guys to stay focused and don’t look back when we were trailing 17-14. We practiced too hard this summer to give it all away.”

Kovacs completed 11 of 18 passes for 206 yards. In the irst quarter he connected with Brennan Ryan for a 67yard touchdown play.

While Walters pointed to the 14-point swing because of the two touchdowns of fumble recoveries, David said, “More than a turning point, we kept playing hard the whole game and that is what we expect.”

Talking Point: Carter Dunn, who runs the 40 in 4.5 seconds, scored on a 98-yard kickof return for the irst ECS touchdown with 3:50 left in the second quarter.

“He has better top-end speed than he does quickburst speed. He does a great job and I am real proud of him,” said Walters.

Williams kicked like a collegian for ECS. He averaged 39.6 yards per punt with his longest of 47 yards.

“We came into the game thinking the kicking game would be a diference maker for us and it was,” said Walters. “We pride ourselves in the kicking game.”

Extra Points: Defensively Josh Kleber had 8.5 tackles for SBA and Cole Richards 7. Drew Walt made 10 tackles for ECS while Griin Childers had two sacks for 16 yards.

With five tackles, Magniico, who also played wide receiver and running back, was all over the ield. “He is one of the greatest leaders on this team,” said Currie. “He made big hits and sparks the whole defense.”

Walters said, “They did a good job of playing us with a

5-man front and pressuring us. Their safeties played real close to the line, what I call playing real wide and lat.

They had a good game plan for us.”

What’s next: ECS plays at Lausanne on Friday. SBA is open.

IN OTHER GAMES FACS 62, Fayette Academy 0 at First Assembly Christian School: the Crusaders are now 2-0 after posting their second straight shutout and holding Fayette academy to just ive yards of total ofense. Bobby Downing completed only ive passes but four went for touchdowns, 12 yards to Jack evans, 28 yards to Drew rutland, 51 yards to Christopher Collins and 35 yards to Drew Fleming.

Cordova 13, Kirby 7 at Kirby: Demarcus Johnson scored on a 2-yard run in the fourth quarter to help the Wolves even their record at 1-1. kalan miller scored Cordova’s irst touchdown in the second quarter on a 39-yard pass reception from Devin Coleman.

GIRLS VOLLEYBALL

CROSS COUNTRY

Determined Harding holds of gritty ECS

Shallow, Wiggins place in girls top 10

By John Varlas varlas@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2350

Even though they’re sailing along pretty well at the moment, Ellie Arnett says she and her Harding volleyball teammates could still be doing a lot better.

Which is a scary thought for the rest of the teams on the Lions’ schedule.

Harding improved to 9-2 on the year last Tuesday, defeating visiting ECS in three straight games. It was a pleasing victory over a quality opponent, but Arnett wasn’t celebrating too much.

“Obviously (reaching) state is a goal,” the senior said. “But I’ll be happy when we reach our potential. There are still so many things we can work on, ofensively and defensively.”

The irst two games were extremely tight, with Harding winning 25-21 and 27-25.

The Lions raced out to a big lead in game 3 before closing out the match 25-16.

“It’s so much fun to coach this team,” said Harding coach Alyssa Hall. “There’s not that one superstar; we’re just so well-rounded. We work hard and we have fun and they all play for each other.”

That all-for-one system was on display, with diferent players making big contributions at diferent points in the match.

In the irst two games, Arnett and Lauren Deaton did much of the damage at the net against a taller ECS team.

Then in the third, Antoinette Lewis — also a standout on Harding’s basketball team — took control at the net with a couple of big blocks and some nice kills.

“They have the ability to get to the ball quicker than just about anyone,” said Eagles coach Tommy Danner, whose team fell to 6-4 with the loss.

“Their players hit shots and keep the ball alive ... it makes it tough.”

Nikki BoertmaN/the CommerCial appeal

Harding’s Katie Grace Short celebrates a Harding point during their match against visiting ECS on Tuesday. The Lions won all three games to improve to 9-2 on the year.

Danner’s team was an injury to star senior Taylor Anderton, who landed hard going for a ball midway though the second game. She sat out the rest of that one and tried to give it a go in the third before calling it a day.

“She wears a (back) brace every game,” said Danner.

“She just kind of jarred her back. But even without her we were able to ight and extend the second game.”

IN SOCCER The area’s top two teams — Houston and Briarcrest — battled to a scoreless draw at Briarcrest. The Mustangs and Saints are both 4-0-1

heading into September. ...

Molly Warren and Nia Bowley each had a goal and an assist and goalkeeper Courtney Brown led a defense that recorded its third shutout in the last four games as Harding defeated Millington, 5-0. ... Hannah Mead scored twice, including one from the penalty spot, and Ainsley Lynn had a goal and an assist as Hutchison blanked St. Benedict, 3-0.

St. George’s improved its record to 4-0 with a 12-0 victory over Tipton-Rosemark.

Madeline East scored four goals and Isabel Correia and Sydney Brown had two apiece to lead the Gryphons.

Mission accomplished for Lauralys Shallow.

The St. Agnes junior met her goal at the irst major cross country meet of the season last Saturday at Mike Rose Soccer Complex, inishing fourth in the Brooks Memphis Twilight Classic.

Shallow’s time of 18:53.73 over the muddy 5K course allowed her to edge Ruth Wiggins of Briarcrest Christian and inish last Saturday night as the top local performer.

“I’m happy,” said Shallow. “Last year, I ran 19:50 so I’m already a minute ahead of that.

Top locally is what I wanted (and) top ive and that’s what I got.”

Wiggins took ifth in 18:54.3. The junior, who said she is still adjusting to the Mid-South humidity after moving in from Riverside, Calif. over the summer, also pronounced herself satisied.

“I knew it was going to be fast,” she said. “I just got myself in a good position and igured I’d run hard. It was good to take the risk.”

Kate Mattox, a sophomore from Starkville (Miss.) High, took irst in a time of 18:37.64.

Arlington’s Sena Murray was the highestplacing local boy; the sophomore came in 19th in 16:56.92.

James Basse of Briarcrest was 28th in 17:13.05 while Bartlett’s Eric Jaramillo was 33rd in 17:17.93.
