Diicult year draws to close Hopeful for better things next year

It’s a bittersweet moment as Caroline Williamson, 19, and Wesley Baucum, 18, graduated May 21 in the chapel at Madonna Learning Center, which will be torn down to make way for expansion of the school at 7007 Poplar in Germantown. “It is just full of great memories,” said Caroline’s mom Elizabeth Williamson.

EDUCATION

A time for change Graduation mirrors transition of Madonna Learning Center

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

As parents snapped pictures of this year’s two graduates smiling in their bright red caps and gowns, the Madonna Learning Center held its last commencement exercises in the All Faith Chapel with its tiny stained glass windows and beautiful heart of pine wood paneled cathedral ceiling in Germantown.

On May 22, construction crews began setting up to transform the private school by adding a multipurpose gym with a staging area, more classrooms including a preschool room, two playgrounds and a new administration suite. Workers will renovate the existing classroom building.

The center, which caters to students ages 5 to 30 with physical and mental disabilities, is moving temporarily to Hope Presbyterian Church in Cordova until the project is inished within 12 months.

It is the center’s irst $10 million capital campaign in its 45-year history. The center moved to the former Church of Christ facility debt-free at 7007 Poplar in 1996.

So far, the center has raised $6.4 million for the project. Just recently, two groups gave Madonna a $1 million challenge grant. If the center can raise another $1 million, it will match it.

Sitting in her oice, the center’s executive director Jo Gilbert seems undaunted by the project. “Sister Mary Mark Graf always used to say, ‘We not only believe in miracles. We depend on them.’ So we live by that,” Gilbert said. “I know there’s a lot of prayers heading our way.”

Her connection to the center runs deep dating back to when her brother was among the school’s irst students 45 years ago. As a youngster, she scrubbed the loors at St. James Catholic Church where Madonna

The political football that united Shelby County Schools died on the ield at noon last Friday when 140,000 students rushed into summer break.

When they return in August, the county — perhaps less than magically — will have morphed from one major school system to eight, including the rapidly expanding Achievement School District.

For Blount Smith, 77, who’s taught Latin 41 years in the same Bartlett High classroom, last week ended one of the most memorable, if not most diicult, years.

“It’s been a very chaotic year. There were so many issues. We survived it, and we are going on to better things next year,” she said. “I am so delighted to become a Bartlett city schools employee.”

The last obstacle, she hopes, is the possibility that she will have to claim 55 dependents on her federal tax withholding, the only way SCS can assure thousands of teachers in the suburbs — scheduled to get the equivalent of ive paychecks in one on June 6 — that they won’t go lying into higher tax brackets.

Smith, who for obvious reasons mentors the entire Bartlett High staf, igured it would cost most of them a paycheck and a half to cover the withholding.

“We are feeling better about it. Five paychecks in one lump sum raises your level of withholding quite a bit. Payroll did come up with a solution, and they did it very nicely.”

Memphis sufers substantial population loss Nashville poised to be largest city in state

By Tom Charlier charlier@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2572

Memphis lost more than 1,000 residents between 2012 and 2013 and barely held its spot among the nation’s 20 largest cities, the latest census estimates show.

The city’s population stood at 653,450 as of July 1, 2013, down from 654,556 a year earlier, ac-

cording to the estimates. While that was enough for Memphis to retain its rank as the nation’s 20th-largest city, Seattle was poised to move into that spot, gaining nearly 18,000 residents for an estimated population of 652,405.

Memphis also is on track to be overtaken soon by Nashville as Tennessee’s largest city. Nashville, which had gained more than 20,000 residents between 2010 and 2012, added another 9,471 people for a 2013 population of 634,464, making it the nation’s

Germantown Police report

25th-largest city. The 1890 Census marked the last time Nashville was larger than Memphis.

Memphis had shown modest population increases in 2011 and in 2012, when it annexed some 4,900 residents in south Cordova.

Despite the population decline, some business leaders say Memphis is taking many of the steps necessary to ensure growth in the future. Phil Trenary, incoming president and CEO of the Greater Memphis Chamber, said recent school reforms and other improvements

should help the city build on its advantages in transportation and logistics.

Trenary, however, said the city must get control of its budget, particularly where it involves the looming employee pension and retiree health care obligations.

“If we don’t get our inancial house in order, we will not be able to be competitive,” he said.

Already, Memphis residents and businesses face a combined city-county tax burden much worse than those in most other

cities, Trenary said, citing the example of an oice building in East Memphis that generates a tax bill twice as high as a similar one in Nashville.

“We’re approaching one of the largest combined tax rates in the nation, and we’ve got to reverse that.”

Elsewhere in the Memphis metropolitan area, Bartlett’s population grew by 3 to 58,226, the igures show, and Southaven was home to an estimated 50,997 people, an increase of 581 from the 2012 igure.

Healthy competition As workout craze grows, lA Fitness plans health clubs in lakeland and Memphis

By Thomas Bailey Jr. baileytom@yourappeal.com 901-529-2388

The exercise chain LA Fitness will spend nearly $10 million building two workout clubs in the Memphis area, according to recently pulled building permits.

The development creates even more competition for for-proit and not-for-proit exercise facilities in the area.

Memphis often tops lists that rank the nation’s obese cities, but that’s not stopping investors trying to cash in on the itness craze.

The permits show the California-based parent company Fitness International is building a $4.96 million facility in Lakeland at 8864 U.S. 64. That’s just east of, and visible from, I-40.

Another $4.88 million facility is being built on 6.8 acres near Winchester and Bill Morris Parkway, at 7630 Polo Grounds.

Arizona-based Barclay Group is developing the 41,000-square-

foot health spa.

The exercise chain is in growth mode. LA Fitness is also building an $11.9 million, 52,700-squarefoot club in Little Rock, according to the Arkansas Business Journal.

“As far as a one-user, standalone building, this is pretty big for Lakeland,” said Jim Atkinson, Lakeland’s director of planning and administration.

The Lakeland facility will be about 40,000 square feet on 5 acres.

Lakeland has other itness businesses, but none are full service like LA Fitness, Atkinson said.

The club will ofer a staf, pool, locker room and child care.

That’s the kind of comprehensive service ofered by some other facilities, including the notfor-proits like the Kroc Center, a $31 million Salvation Army community center which opened last year in Memphis, and the YMCA, which has operated in Memphis nearly 160 years.

“They kind of picked spots sort

of in between our service areas,” said Keith Johnson, chief executive of the YMCA of Memphis & The Mid-South.

Asked if there are a enough customers to go around for all the area’s itness facilities, Johnson replied, “Do we have all the members that we have capacity to handle? No. Is there a large percentage of residents in the Memphis area that work out regularly? No.” But the YMCA system is “doing great,” Johnson said. “Next year will be our 160th year in Memphis so we’ve got to be doing something OK. We just added a branch last year in Oxford.”

Unlike for-proit exercise clubs, the YMCA has a sliding-fee scale based on a family or individual’s ability to pay.

“And there is so much more that we do,” Johnson said. “We’re the largest provider of child care in the Memphis area. The largest provider of swim lessons in the Memphis area. We work with a thousand teens a year. We’re probably the largest provider of day camp programs in the area,” he said.

“We’re so much more than a gym.”

from 1 Meanwhile, SCS will pay health coverage premiums until Aug. 31 for teachers and principals in the 33 schools that are being turned over to suburban school boards July 1.

At Cordova High School, principal Felicia Everson has just wrapped up hiring the 10 teachers she expects to need for 450 new students (a 25 percent gain) expected to pour into CHS from unincorporated parts of Bolton and Bartlett high attendance areas.

“We have to be very strategic in determining what type of certification teachers have, based on what students need to graduate,” she said. To do that, Cordova High sent stacks of “course selection cards” to Bolton and Bartlett students and a smidgen of other families that will be zoned to CHS starting July 1.

“We have most of the cards in from parents,” Everson said. “The others probably haven’t made a decision yet. We are try-

Auditions upcoming for ‘Oklahoma!’

The Collierville Arts Council will hold auditions for the upcoming musical production of “Oklahoma!” at the Harrell Theatre on June 7 at 1:30 p.m. and June 14 at 10:30 a.m. Callbacks will be June 14 at 1:30 p.m.

Rodgers & Hammerstein’s “Oklahoma!” will be performed live on stage at the Harrell Theatre, 440 W. Powell, Sept. 12-21. Rehearsals for the production are expected to begin around Aug. 1.

The production staf, director Jason Spritzer and musical director Tammy Holt, will be casting adults, teens and children ages 6 and up. Audition forms, a headshot and 16 bars from a musical will be needed.

“Bye Bye Birdie,” winner of four Tony Awards and one of the most captivating musicals ever, will be presented by the Arts Council at the Harrell Theatre on June 20-29.

Arlington High vice principal Roger Jones III will be going to work as the new principal for Collierville Middle School starting in July.

As vice-principal, Jones oversees curriculum and instruction and guidance services at Arlington.

“Roger is an outstanding leader and person. He is knowledgeable regarding academic instruction and school administration and works to build meaningful relationships with students, parents, teachers, and the community,” said Collierville School Supt. John Aitken in making the announcement.

Jones is a former assistant principal at Collierville Middle and a former teacher at Schilling Farms Middle in Collierville.

He has a master’s degree in leadership and policy studies and a BS in education human development and learning from the University of Memphis.

WEEKLY ing to anticipate what they will be taking. We do have to do some guesswork.”

Guess high, and she will have too many on staf. If she guesses low, Everson will be looking for teachers in the irst week of school.

Meanwhile, there is no decision on what time the school day will start next year in SCS, although the board seems to be leaning toward keeping high schools at the earliest bell — either 7:15 or 7:30 a.m.

Changing high school starts from 7 to 8 a.m. — the preference for the majority of families the district surveyed in early April — would require disrupting schedules at 106 schools.

School board member Teresa Jones, who visited three high schools for breakfast this spring, says so few students show up on time, principals have to schedule non-tested subjects in the irst period.

“Seven o’clock does not work. The feedback I got was kids still come at 7:30 or 8. They are either asleep and don’t get there or they miss most of it.”

Colleen Cole cheers on her students as they walk across the graduation stage. During the expansion of Madonna Learning Center, the school will temporarily operate at Hope Church.

Williamson, whose daughter, Caroline, 19, graduated recently, is ready for a new chapter.

In the News COLLIERVILLE

Town holds line on taxes amid flat budget Gives employees raise, fronts schools funding

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

Collierville is holding its own this year with no property tax increase, a 3 percent raise for the town’s 450 employees and a relatively lat operations budget.

Collierville’s proposed general fund operation budget for iscal year 2015 is $44.1 million

compared to last year’s budget of $43.3 million — an increase of 1.8 percent.

The Board of Mayor and Aldermen met May 22 for a nonvoting work session to go over the town and school budgets.

Town oicials will hold a public hearing on the budget at their June 9 meeting and will vote on it June 23.

The budget calls for hiring ive new full-time workers — four in the Parks Department after the new Hinton Park is inished next year, and an IT

project manager for the Finance Department.

The town expects to buy at least ive sport utility vehicles for IT, Police, Fire and Water departments, along with six trucks, a dump truck, a garbage truck, three patrol cars and an unmarked car for undercover operations.

“We turned down a lot of requests for new employees and program changes,” said Town Administrator James Lewellen.

“We’ll watch the numbers. We may have to ask for another

(development department engineering) inspector and the same thing with vehicles. We are trying to stretch it (additional personnel and vehicles) out for another year.”

Collierville has budgeted $4.9 million in startup costs beginning July 1 for the town’s new municipal school district, funded from the additional halfcent sales tax the town has been collecting.

Other suburban towns in Shelby County have taken similar actions to help the new municipal

school districts.

In addition, Finance Director Jane Bevell said that until the bulk of the school district’s revenues come in late this calendar year, the town will be loaning the district $2 million in September to help with the district’s cash low and $507,819 in October to pay for the settlement costs due the Shelby County School system.

Collierville oicials say the $2.5 million in loans likely would be paid back by the end of the school year.

Commercial renovation/investment:

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

Just as the west side of Collierville’s Town Square is springing to life with the University of Memphis campus construction and the municipal school district oice renovation at the Historic High School building, the east side is popping with nearby inill developments and even a bed-and-breakfast in the works.

Since 2008, seven new homes have been built, 21 home lots are for sale and two more projects are in the works for the east side.

While that number may sound small, much of the new development is squeezing new homes in undeveloped or underdeveloped properties that are sandwiched between Town Square and the town’s industrial area.

Natchez Place is the latest development that likely will go before the town’s Historic District Commission in June.

Doug Dickens, his son Chris Dickens and John Ashworth are partners on the proposed Natchez Place.

“That’s one of the most important parts of this business, creating sustainable neighborhoods and

that in turn means sustainability for the Square,” said Doug Dickens.

Doug Dickens, former special projects vice president for Boyle Investment, has been developing inill projects since the early 1980s — irst in Midtown and now in Collierville, where both he and son Chris live in two of their newest inill digs.

Dickens, who has 40 years of real estate development experience, helped create Memphis’ planned development ordinance in 1979.

Inill development appeals to both father and son even with the challenges of working with irregular lot sizes or detention areas or ponds for water.

“You get to create something special every time out of the box,” said Dickens, 70.

Chris Dickens, 31, said development near the Square is attracting a mix of married and single professionals who are empty nesters and baby boomers at Washington Gates and Washington Street South.

If approved, Natchez Place would be nine inill residential lots on almost two acres of wooded land at the corner of Washington and Mount Pleasant roads. Four houses would

front Mount Pleasant Road; three on Washington Street and the remaining two on Natchez.

The proposed development on Natchez is across the street from two giant magnolia trees and the historic Elizabeth Parr home that Parr’s grandson, Hampton Parr, plans on turning into a bed-andbreakfast and event venue.

Parr already has Stratton Heights, a 12-lot subdivision approved nearby.

Under the town’s 2010 downtown plan, town oficials saw the need for more residential development within walking distance of Town Square.

In 2010, there were 869 homes in the downtown area and town officials are predicting that it could handle 630 more homes.

“We wanted to increase the number of households within a ive- to ten-minute walk to the Square to keep the Square viable,” said Town Planner Jaime Groce. With the latest projects, he added, “There’s a lot of synergy going on.”

Because the Square is considered the town’s jewel, the downtown historic district encompasses 700 acres and includes streets north and south of Poplar.

“We want our gem to be a nice setting,” Groce said.

Clinical pharmacy professor Brad Boucher will be among the faculty watching 672 new health care professionals get their degrees from the University of Tennessee Health Science Center on Friday. But he’ll have his eye on one graduate in particular.

That’s because Andy Boucher, 26, the second oldest of the pharmacy professor’s three sons, will be graduating from the UTHSC College of Medicine during the ceremony. That happy moment for the father and son will be even more special because the elder Boucher will present the diploma to the younger.

It’s not the irst time UTHSC graduation has been a family afair for the Bouchers, and it looks like it won’t be the last. Two years ago, Brad Boucher presented his oldest son, Alex, 29, with his Doctor of Medicine degree from UTHSC. Alex is now in his second year of an internal medicinepediatrics residency at the University of Minnesota, after which will come a fellowship in pediatric hematology-

oncology.

Adam, 23, the youngest Boucher son, is a second-year pharmacy student at UTHSC and on course to graduate in two more years.

“It’s not unheard of for faculty members to have children who graduate, but it is fairly rare to have that many,” said Liz Roemer, a senior administrative services assistant in the Oice of Student Life. She should know, she’s been organizing UTHSC’s graduations for the past 40 years.

Brad Boucher, who also serves as associate dean for strategic initiatives and operations in the College of Pharmacy, has been a faculty member at the university for 30 years.

He and his wife, Barb, moved to Germantown when he was hired, and they have raised the boys there. He feels strong ties to the area and the institution that brought them here.

“I’m not an alumnus, but I’ve been here a long time,” he said. “I always felt there was just such a great atmosphere here.”

He said he and his wife “feel incredibly blessed” that their three sons have been able to pursue their passion for

health care through the Colleges of Medicine and Pharmacy at UTHSC. “It is our hope that they will ind great happiness in serving others throughout their respective careers,” he said.

Andy, who will do his residency in neurosurgery at Emory University in Atlanta, is among a graduating class of 411 women and 261 men from all six of the UT Health Science Center’s colleges. The class includes: 185 from the College of Allied Health Sciences, 74 from the College of Dentistry, 23 from the College of Graduate Health Sciences, 157 from the College of Medicine, 107 from the College of Nursing, 126 from the College of Pharmacy The 2014 spring commencement ceremony will be held at 1:30 p.m. in FedExForum. Since its founding in 1911, UT Health Science Center has educated and trained more than 56,000 health care professionals in academic settings and health care facilities across the state.

Peggy Reisser Winburne is a media relations and communications specialist with the University of Tennessee Health Science Center.

Andy Boucher will graduate from University of Tennessee Health Science Center Friday. His father, Brad Boucher, who is a teacher at the school, will present his son the diploma.

Fifth-graders present history fair projects

By Katherine Perry Special to The Weekly

The exhibits and presentations at the third annual Bailey Station Elementary U.S. History Fair held recently wowed students, parents and distinguished visitors.

Approximately 150 students in the ifth grade prepared and presented a unique aspect of American History through a visual display, written essay and oral presentation. According to ifth-grade teacher Kim Shepherd, who coordinated the event, students began working on the written portion of their projects in February and then added their visual displays in March.

As visitors approached each display, the students, often dressed in period costumes, served as docents — ofering interesting facts and answering

visitors’ questions.

Classes of younger students in grades K-4 used the history fair as an opportunity to learn more about American History.

Visitors were given stickers, lags and reproductions of historical documents as souvenirs.

The ifth-graders elaborated on their exhibits as parents, teachers, and administrators paused to observe their remarkable work. After touring the exhibit, visitors were invited to vote for their favorite project. Caroline Williams won irst prize for her presentation on Ulysses S. Grant. Winning second and third places, respectively, were Caleb Hopkins for his presentation on the Industrial Revolution and Christian Flynn for his Civil War project.

Briarcrest Christian School 2014 grads toss their caps in the air to celebrate their high school graduation on May 17 at Germantown Baptist Church.

Bailey Station Elementary students enjoyed learning about the history of the Mississippi River and its impact on Memphis during their trip to the Mud Island River Park and Museum.

Katherine Perry is a teacher at Bailey Station Elementary.

Germantown High School IB juniors (from left) Frank Emelue, Analia Mireles, Nadir Noordin and Katherine Molinet were selected to attend prestigious enrichment institutes this summer.

Emelue will be attending the Summer Writing Institute at Rhodes College. In addition to Governor’s School, Mireles will be participating in the Summer Conservancy Association program in Morristown, N.J. and Noordin is attending the University of Pennsylanvia’s Management and Tech Summer Institute.

Molinet will be attending the Duke Institute Dynamic Systems and Chaos Theory at Duke University.

GM SALUTESVETERANS DURING MILITARYAPPRECIATION MONTH 21 MILLION U.S.MILITARYVETERANS ELIGIBLE FOR GM MILITARY DISCOUNT DETROIT- From today until June 30, all active, reserve, retired and veteran military – regardless of separation date – can receive the General Motors military discount on Chevrolet, Buick and GMC vehicles.

GM extended military pricing to the more than 21 million U.S. veterans from all service branches: U.S. Air Force, Army, Navy, Marines, National Guard and Coast Guard.

“GM has supported the U.S. military for 100 years. From providing purpose-built vehicles in conlict situations to today’s support for veterans and returning military personnel, we continue to be their strong allies,” said Steve Hill, GM vice president of U.S. Sales and Service. “This discount is just one part of our ongoing salute to those who serve our country.”

First offered in 2008, the GM Military Discount Program features pricing below suggested retail for eligible vehicles The military discount can be combined with most current incentives.

USAA members are eligible for an additional $750 discount. Eligible consumers must take delivery by June 30, 2014.

GM Chief Diversity Oficer and retired Navy Capt. Ken Barrett said the military discount is a measure of appreciation for those who have served.

“Our support also includes signiicant employment and training opportunities for our currently transitioning military and signiicant philanthropic support for organizations dedicated to serving those who have sacriiced so much,” Barrett said.

1. Tires are your vehicle’s contact to the road. Your tires have wear indicators in the tread that indicate how much tread is left.

An easy way to tell is to use a Lincoln Penny. If you can see the top of Lincoln’s head when you place the penny in the tread, you have less than 2mm of tread left & you need tires. We have Price Match Guarantee thru GM. Check with us before you buy tires.

2. Belts are what drive your water pump, air conditioner compressor, alternator and power steering pump, (unless you have the new electric steering). Have your belts checked for cracking or glazing. This can put you down without notice.

3.Coolant hoses are what carry your engine coolant from the radiator to the engine, heater and back. Swollen hoses are a danger of rupturing and causing you an overheating problem, possibly a damaged engine. Have them checked by our professionals to ensure a carefree and safe trip.

Having your vehicle checked over before your summer vacation trip will give you peace of mind and a better vacation!

Food DESSERT

Don’t forget the vegetables when you fire up the grill

Jennifer McCullough, owner of the Chef Jenn line of frozen dips and seafood cakes, likes to grill okra and mix it with corn for a salad.

As many people turn to healthier food choices, the grill is a natural choice for lighter fare like vegetables.

LIGHTER FARE

By Jennifer Biggs biggs@commercialappeal.com 901-529-5223

W

ith Memorial Day behind us and summer right ahead, it’s time to clean up the grills and season up the steaks. Or ire up the smokers and crack a few eggs.

Mike Harris of Memphis is a guy for whom food is a hobby. He spent his younger years working in restaurants before a 20-year career in information technology. When he retired, he attended the Arizona Culinary Institute.

“I had more fun doing that than you could believe,” he said. “It was a great experience.”

From his early years in the kitchen, his education and his extensive reading about food, he creates recipes — truly — in his sleep.

“I dream up recipes,” he said. “I wake up in the morning and type them up, then I start Googling to see if someone has already come up with it.”

He’d heard of smoked eggs, so it was natural that he’d try his hand at this: Boil the eggs, cool them and crack the shells all around.

Roll them in a seasoning of your choice and pop them in the smoker for about 30 minutes.

“But the last couple of times I made these, I modiied it and made it into something better,” he said. “Have you ever heard of teasoaked eggs?”

Harris’ rif on the classic that creates a marbled boiled egg uses a Southern favorite: Barbecue sauce.

After boiling the eggs, he gently cracks the shells by tapping with the back of a spoon (the cracks create the pattern). He thins barbecue sauce with water, simmers the cracked eggs in it, then lets them

sit overnight to absorb the lavor.

The following day, they go in the smoker for about 40 minutes.

“When you take the cracked shell of the eggs, you have this beautiful, delicious, smoky egg,” he said.

Of course, a burger, a batch of hot dogs or those big juicy steaks on a grill are loved by most omnivorous folks with access to hardwood charcoal. But as many people turn to healthier food choices, the grill is a natural choice for lighter fare.

Fish and chicken have always taken to a touch of smoke, but vegetables do too. Jennifer McCullough, owner of the Chef Jenn line of frozen dips and seafood cakes, likes to grill okra and mix it with corn for a salad — and OK, OK, she adds a touch of bacon too.

A grill basket is an excellent tool for small vegetables. The pans have large holes in the bottom and sides to allow the heat and smoke in the pan while keeping the vegetables securely away from the grates, and thus from the nearly unavoidable fate of a few escapees

falling on the coals and causing a smoky lare-up.

Larger vegetables, such as slices of eggplant, fennel, even romaine hearts or baby bok choy, can go directly on the grill. But watch the heat; vegetables shouldn’t go directly over coals unless a recipe speciically says to put them there.

When in doubt, don’t.

Jennifer Dickerson, owner of Lux Culinary, is a chef, food stylist and food photographer who is also currently operating the Truck Stop food truck for Brewery on Tap. She’s not alone in cooking directly on the coals of her grill.

While she’s preparing chicken on the grate, she puts ears of corn wrapped in aluminum foil directly in the coals. It’s part of a dinner that’s a family favorite: Grilled chicken with a white “barbecue” sauce.

“I’m not really a fan of the traditional barbecued chicken,” she said. “It’s too sweet, too cloying.”

Instead she makes a sauce that she both bastes her chicken with and serves on the side.

“I always brine the chicken before I cook it,” she said. “It’s a basic recipe, a half-cup of salt and a half-cup of sugar to two gallons of water. Don’t leave the chicken in for longer than an hour or two, and add some rosemary and garlic, if you want, when you’re grilling it.”

When the chicken is about half cooked, she starts basting it with her white sauce.

“One you add the sauce, you can’t put the chicken over direct heat because it’ll burn,” she said.

And be sure you have extra sauce.

“When you serve the chicken, you dip that chicken in that sauce and it is so good,” she said. “When I start talking about, I start dreaming about it.”

Palates warming to unconventional ice cream flavors

By Michele Kayal Associated Press

Coming soon to a freezer aisle near you — balsamic vinegar ice cream.

Plus, hot sauce ice cream.

And maybe even tomato.

“You’re seeing the same kinds of trends in ice cream that you’re seeing in other foods,” says Peggy Armstrong, spokeswoman for the International Dairy Foods Association. “People are willing to experiment.”

Just a generation ago, Americans mostly bought their ice cream at the supermarket in recognizable lavors that occasionally sported chocolate chips or a swirl of some kind. Today, regular old ice cream has been joined by boutique items such as gelato, sorbet and water ice, as well as an army of lavors that seem more at home in an Italian restaurant — opal basil lemon sorbet, anyone? — than in your local freezer aisle.

Americans ate nearly 1.6 billion gallons of ice cream and other frozen dairy desserts in 2012. But traditional ice cream’s share of that market has been shrinking, edged out by specialty items such as frozen yogurt and gelato.

In 2012, production of regular ice cream hit its lowest point since 1996, the Dairy Foods Association says, hitting fewer than 900 million gallons.

Boutique scoop shops and artisanal producers have looded the landscape during the last ive to 10 years, introducing audiences to a wider range of lavors and textures.

Cumin and honey butterscotch, salty vanilla, and pumpernickel are typical of Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams, an Ohio-based producer that has gone national. Uber-hip Coolhaus, which has parlayed ice cream trucks and storefronts into distribution in 2,000 supermarkets, ofers Cuban cigar, spicy pineapple-cilantro and even fried chicken and wale ice cream.

“The lavor we thought nobody would buy was balsamic ig mascarpone, and that’s the one we’re out of,” says Coolhaus co-founder Natasha Case about the company’s recent experience at a trade show. “All the buyers want that one.

Two years ago, we were out of vanilla. That buyer at that show who does ive to 300 grocery chains wants to know what’s cool, whereas before they just wanted to know that you

could do vanilla well.”

Vanilla remains supreme, Armstrong says, but the mass-market producers represented by her organization are branching out.

At the association’s annual ice cream technology conference in April, producers showcased lavors such as Mexican-spiced chocolate and hot sauce ice cream. Ice cream lavors such as caramel popcorn, cofee-anddoughnuts, cotton candy and peanut butter s’mores also are destined for supermarket shelves.

Though we are in an intense period of lavor experimentation, the desire to go beyond chocolate, vanilla and strawberry dates to the post-World War II era, says Laura B. Weiss, author of “Ice Cream: A Global History.” That’s when Howard Johnson, known for his roadside restaurants, tried to convince Americans to indulge in his famous 28 lavors. Among them: maple walnut, burgundy cherry and fruit salad.

“This was really pretty revolutionary,” Weiss says.

“Going beyond chocolate, vanilla and strawberry really began with Howard Johnson.”

Even today’s most exoticsounding new lavors make sense on some level. Candied sweet potato, a lavor being explored by Parker Products in Fort Worth, Texas, has its roots in Southern sweet potato pie.

Ice cream behemoth Haagen-Dazs recently launched tomato ice cream in Japan, as well as a carrot-orange lavor. And why not, says Jeni Britton Bauer of Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams.

“A lot of vegetables have a very sweet lavor,” she says.

“Like corn. Even when you make it salty, it’s still sweet and milky.”

The next revolution, ice cream watchers say, will be in creating more texturally sophisticated ice creams.

Crop tops rate high on list for fashionistas

Cyndii Jo Hartley poses with her Henny Penny Fashion Boutique during the recent South Main Trolley Night. The MEMMobile program will be bringing four more mobile stores to the streets soon.

Entrepreneurs go mobile, bringing fashion business to customers Food trucks have been such a hit, it was just a matter of time before fashion trucks got rolling in Memphis.

The Henny Penny Mobile Boutique, a woman’s fashion store in a 30-foot truck, opened for business at the end of March and has been creating a stir everywhere it appears.

Recently owner Cyndii Jo Hartley set up shop on South Main during Trolley Night and watched curious women lock in to fuss over the dresses, skirts and accessories and try things on in one of two dressing rooms.

Hartley, a part-time hairstylist, said her business name is taken from the childhood nickname given to her by her grandmother.

Soon, shoppers will be seeing four more new stores roll by, all ive the spawn of a small business incubation program called MEMMobile developed by the Mayor’s Innovation and Delivery Team, which helps small business people develop mobile retailing by truck or trailer. Three will sell fashion and one will ofer bicycle services and accessories.

MEMMobile formally launched on May 8. Mayor A C Wharton and the new mobile business owners spoke.

The new trucks in addition to Hartley’s are: ■ K’PreSha Haul of Fashion, owned by Kimberly Taylor, who also owns and operates K’PreSha men’s and women’s fashion boutique in Downtown Memphis.

■ Sache T-shirt Truck, which will offer customprinted T-shirts, launched by Eric Evans and John Sylvester,

by Evans.

■ Thigh High Jeans, a business in which artists Ann Smithwick and Kerry Peeples create new jeans from old ones and embroider them with uplifting quotes.

■ The Bikesmith, is the irst retail business venture by bike enthusiast Jim Steffen, who will ofer bike accessories along with bike services and repair. He’ll do them where he’s parked or go to a customer’s home.

“For me, it’s a creative way to bring the product to the customer. You’re not waiting on him to come to you,” said Taylor of K’Presha. “You’re not deined by a location.”

Taylor and other truck owners said they plan to appear at various times at Tennessee Brewery Untapped, a series of events including music and craft beer sales at the old Tennessee Brewery Downtown in an efort to save the iconic building. The events will run until Sunday.

Taylor said she plans more fashions from local cut-andsew designers. Hartley said she shops the Atlanta market, and looks for contemporary, easy-to-wear fashions aimed mostly at the 25 to 45 age

group. Both retailers plan to keep items below $100.

The Mayor’s Innovation Delivery Team raised private money to fund forgivable loans for the new truck entrepreneurs and dispersed about $75,000 among them, said Abby Miller, Delivery Team program manager. The retailers had to contribute at least 25 percent of the cost of starting the business, money that most often went to acquiring and outitting the trucks.

Hartley said it was a challenge. “There’s no one to call to make that happen,” she said. Southern Automotive Accessories wired hers for electricity. “That was their irst fashion truck, for sure,” she said.

Her father put in walls, ceilings, racks and shelves, and is now installing airconditioning. A sign company and graphic designer worked on the exterior.

Sache’s truck will be arranged more like an ice cream truck, said Sylvester, with a large, long open window on the side where shoppers can view the merchandise. Sache plans to do silk screen printing

outside the truck as an entertaining way to educate people about the craft, he said.

The Thigh High Jeans artists will operate from a 1972 Holiday Rambler trailer they bought on eBay. They think it suits their theme of recycled treasures.

Hartley said she always asks permission before parking on the street in front of a store.

Parking next to Hoot + Louise, new and vintage fashion store in the South Main District, seemed to attract more shoppers to both stores, she said. Parking at Wiseacre Brewing Company gave customers some extra entertainment.

She sold fashion in the parking lot of Theatre Memphis and donated 10 percent of sales to the theater.

Private individuals can work an angle too. She teamed with a homeowner friend for a Friday evening happy hour event in her driveway. The friend served refreshments, and received credit on merchandise, while pals and neighbors shopped. The evening was a hit, said Hartley.

If crop top sales hit the roof, blame it on Rihanna As pure media-bait, the torso-baring, two-piece dress she launted recently at The Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute gala blew away the competition. It was one of those fashion moments that can sear a trend into the mainstream brain.

Young fashionistas at Wolfchase Galleria are into it right now, said Star Hawks, professional stylist, designer and manager of Francesca’s.

And while it’s easy to get it wrong, it’s also easy to do it right, she noted. The top comes in a big range of styles and pairs beautifully with spring’s trendiest pants and skirts.

Many competitors in Memphis Fashion Week’s Emerging Designer competition this spring worked the trend, including mini-collection winner Tara Skelley, who wore it herself to the event, as a two-piece dress that showed just a sliver of skin.

“In Memphis, you have to be aware of the setting you are in,” said Skelley. “You can’t get away with it in church or for work. But for Memphis in May (International Festival events), or a patio party or dinner, they wouldn’t give you a second look.”

Skelley thinks many women could wear it as she did. But even the skimpy, bra-like, bandeau style she showed on the runway can work here. Pop a jacket over it (or a crocheted vest or sleeveless shirt), and it would it in anywhere you can wear sundresses and tank tops, she noted.

Midrif tops are back, at least in part, because of rising waistlines.

They’re perfect for all the highwaisted, flowing pants: harem, joggers, slouchy or palazzos and with high-waisted pencil skirts, and short, pleated tennis skirts.

Girls at the mall love to wear them with “mom jeans,” said Hawks — the acid-washed, ’80s styles jeans with tapered legs. But she feels like hiding her eyes when she sees women in tight crop tops with leggings, a look neither tasteful nor modest.

Ditto for exposed belly buttons.

With high-waisted bottoms is “the clean and classy way to wear the cropped top,” said Hawks. “It should look efortless and not like you’re trying too hard.”

You can peruse an astonishing variety at Charlotterusse.com and Forever21.com — everything from “boned” bustiers to tribal print swing tops to T-shirt racerbacks to strappy styles — most for $8 to $18.

J.C. Penney has crop tops on sale now, including a pretty bandeau style in 11 diferent colors and prints for only about $6.

MEN’S FASHION

Untucked shirts are for casual occasions only

By Lois Fenton Special to The Commercial Appeal

boyfriend insists on Q My wearing his shirts untucked on any occasion that does not include a tie, and a few when it does.

He’s in very good shape, so it isn’t an issue of wanting to hide a gut, nor, truthfully, does this detract from his physique (to some extent it plays up that he has a good body and doesn’t need to launt it). The problem to me is that it just looks out of place and embarrassing. He can point to many a good-looking celebrity or even fashion magazine sporting his style.

So, what I’m saying is: Agree with me, and tell him why he’s wrong!

LAND’S END

Untucked shirts are strictly casual wear, and more suitable for a boy than a man.

not so sure about “out A I’m of place,” but it is important to consider whether we are dis-

cussing dressy or not dressy. My feelings about untucked dress shirts for any man old enough to be considered a “man,” and not a boy, are not at all positive. To me it is an unkempt, if not actually a sloppy, look.

I see no reason for a man to walk around with his shirt hanging out unless it is one that is inherently casual, such as a Tshirt, polo shirt or a plaid. Even these look neater when tucked in. Almost every shirt that is not worn as a jacket looks more inished and reined when it is tucked into one’s pants.

Essentially, the more formal the elements of your outit, the more often you should tuck your shirt in.

Generally, if you’re in dress pants, a button-front dress shirt should be tucked. The look is sharper. When wearing dress pants, use a belt and tuck the shirt in nice and tight. You

don’t want anything as aging as a blousy shirt spilling out at the top.

Keep in mind that an untucked shirt does not hide your belly. If a man thinks it is efective camoulage, he is wrong. Tucking helps deine the waist line and shape a man’s silhouette. It also gives a clean inish to his overall appearance.

Still, if he is insistent, I will address this to him: If you are certain an untucked buttondown shirt is a cool look, here are a few guidelines. At the very least, realize that it is a casual style, not for dressy occasions.

But doing it well is not that easy.

■ When it comes to wearing your shirt untucked, length matters. If the shirt is too long, it cannot look good. So what is the right length? It should hit above your hips and definitely not extend past them. At the same

time, it should be long enough so, when you raise your arms, your belly does not show.

■ Don’t let your untucked shirt extend below your jacket or sports coat. The key is to make sure the shirt does not hang below the bottom of the coat. (If your shirt is so long that it would show below your jacket, tuck it in.)

■ Most shirts are designed to be tucked in. A useful rule is, if a button-down shirt has a inished, squared-of bottom, it can be worn untucked in casual situations. If it’s cut curvy — long in front and back, short on the sides — it looks better tucked in.

■ Appropriate pairing matters. An untucked shirt is most logical with jeans or other casual pants such as chinos or corduroys. If you are too old for jeans, go back to my original answer, and don’t wear an untucked shirt.

STATE BASEBALL

Houston forced to settle for 2nd

By Michael Cohen mcohen@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2525

MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — Cullen Lynd swung hard and missed, another fastball from Farragut’s stud pitcher Patrick Raby foiling yet another Houston batter. It was the bottom of the seventh inning in the Division 1 Class AAA state title game, and the Mustangs needed a relative miracle in their last at-bat, what with Raby painting the corners at will and pinpointing his fastball like he was playing a video game.

Lynd tipped his helmet low over his eyes as he walked back to the dugout, realizing that his career in a Houston uniform was just two outs from ending.

And the man standing on the mound, the one committed to Vanderbilt, was the main reason why.

Raby, a junior righthander, threw a beautiful game from start to inish.

He tossed a complete game in Farragut’s 4-0 win over Houston, allowing just three hits and striking out six. With a fastball estimated between 87 and 89 miles per hour, he fooled the Mustangs all over the strike zone, mixing in enough of-speed pitches to keep them guessing.

Houston’s Wes Roberson scrambles for an infield hit against Farragut. “Couldn’t be prouder of any team I’ve ever coached,� said Mustangs coach Lane McCarter.

“It’s baseball,� Houston coach Lane McCarter said, “you run into a pitcher like that on a day like today and he was just better than us today. If we played the same game tomorrow, we might be on the 4-0 side of it.�

The Mustangs qualiied for the state tournament for the irst time since receiving a two-year postseason ban for their part in a bench-clearing brawl during the spring of 2011.

For the seniors, who were freshmen when the ight took place, this was their lone taste of Tennessee’s biggest stage, and they made the most of it with three straight wins to reach the title game.

The inal game was decided by pitching. Raby’s brilliance was juxtaposed

with an average outing by Houston’s Connor Hayman, whose evening was spoiled by one forgettable inning.

Farragut scored three runs in the top of the fourth, helped in part by a ielding error from Hayman. He misplayed a bunt back to the mound that put runners on irst and second. From there the Admirals reeled of two base hits and a sacriice ly to push the lead to 4-0, which was more than enough with Raby cruising.

Still, McCarter implored his players to hold their heads high when the game was inished. They had hauled the program up from punishment purgatory, and for that, McCarter said, they will always be remembered.

“Couldn’t be prouder of any team I’ve ever coached,� McCarter, who led the Mustangs to a state championship in 2005, said. “Just getting back here sets the program where it needs to be again, and this is what Houston baseball is all about: playing for state titles.�

MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — They fought for every ball and every inch. They got down and dirty on a dusty ield that would have it in well in a John Steinbeck novel.

But at the end of 80 minutes, all the Collierville Dragons soccer team had to show for its efort was its pride, and a secondplace trophy.

Jimmy Wester scored with six minutes left to give Franklin a 1-0 victory over the Dragons in the Spring Fling AAA championship game at Siegel Soccer Park.

The victory capped an undefeated season for the Rebels — who entered the game ranked second in the nation in the Student Sports top 50 — and gave them their second straight championship.

Collierville, which hadn’t lost since falling to CBHS in the irst game of the season, ends the year with a school-best 19-2-3 mark. “Good teams have good players,� said Dragons coach Drew Hensarling, who after the game said that he would return to coach the team next season after previously announcing he would step down. “Great teams have great people. This team has come so far and the seniors have raised the bar for this team. I can’t thank

them enough. “We fought all year long ... we knew after the Christian Brothers game that we had a team of ighters. Teams from Memphis have that grit-grind spirit and that goes for the Grizzlies all the way down to a little team from Collierville.�

Except for the last couple of minutes of the irst half when the Rebels were camped out in front of Collierville’s goal, the teams were even in the irst 40 minutes. Neither created much in the way of clearcut chances though, and Dragons defender and co-captain Marlow Payant summed it best as the players walked of the ield at halftime. “Not bad,� he said to his teammates. “But not our best.�

Collierville had Franklin on its heels for good stretches after the irst and nearly opened the scoring in the 73rd minute when Stephen Cunnane went close.

The Dragons won a couple of corners in the closing minutes and threw everybody forward — including goalkeeper Brady Thornbury — but the Rebels were able to hang on. “We fought and fought and fought,� said Hensarling. “Both sides were physical. We had some chances but they were able to put away a good opportunity.�

Prep Sports STATE TRACK & FIELD

MUS, Houston, Cordova’s Maat rule podium in West Tennessee solidarity

By Jason Smith smithjas@commercialappeal.com

MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — Whether it was Cordova’s Molei Maat lashing the money sign on the medal stand like Johnny Manziel, Memphis University School’s Harrison Williams winning ive gold medals or the Owls and Houston High earning team state titles, Memphis-area athletes ruled the TSSAA boys track and ield state meets last Friday at Middle Tennessee’s Dean A. Hayes Stadium.

And after the trophies and medals had all been awarded, the Division 2 state champion Owls, Class AAA state champion Mustangs and Cordova’s oneman team of Maat posed together in a show of West Tennessee solidarity.

“It’s great to see West

Tennessee represented here,” Houston coach Aaron Martens said.

“East Tennessee is known for their distance. We come out and we’ve got the sprints, the decathletes. There’s a lot of guys from West Tennessee that showed up, and it’s just fun to see that because they’re guys you want to root for.”

Memphis-area boys won a combined 18 events to go with the team titles for the Owls and Mustangs, which included one of the most dominant individual performances in TSSAA track and ield history by Williams, who accounted for 50 of MUS’ 176 points.

One year after scoring 48 points to help MUS to a third-place inish, the Stanford-bound Williams capped of his stellar prep career by winning the D2 decathlon with 7,114 points,

the pole vault (16 feet), the high jump (6-8), the 110 hurdles (13.79 seconds) and the 300 hurdles (36.40).

His time in the 300 hurdles broke a 24-yearold state record of 36.58, and Harrison would have had another if TSSAA oficials hadn’t ruled that his time in the 110 hurdles was wind-aided.

“There was a little bit of disappointment in the 110 hurdles because of the wind, but I just really wanted to get that state record in (the 300). It was my last race ever in high school so I wanted to end on a good note,” Williams said.

Said MUS track and ield coach Bobby Alston: “He’s just a remarkable athlete. I just pray that in six or 10 years when he’s on the Olympic stand I get the chance to be there.”

Williams’ junior team-

mate, Chris Davis, also scored big for MUS, which earned its ifth boys track and ield team state title and denied D2 runnerup Brentwood Academy (135.5) a state-record 20th.

Davis won the D2 400 in 49.11. He was runner-up in the 200 by one-thousandth of a second. He was fourth in the 100 and third in the decathlon earlier this week.

MUS’ 3,200 relay team of Pierce Rose, Clayton Turner, Carlton Orange and Terrell Jackson won in 7:59.57 and Orange won the D2 800 (1:52.11).

Houston’s second-place inish in the 1,600 relay, the inal event, secured its irst boys track team title since 2005 and its second in school history. The Mustangs had led Brentwood by one point going into the race and edged the Bruins 68-63 for the title.

Cordova’s Molefi Maat (middle) leads the pack on his way to the 100-meter dash state title during the Spring Fling Class AAA track finals in Murfreesboro last Thursday.

Senior Wesley White swept the Class AAA 110 (14.25) and 300 hurdles (38.50). Houston’s 400 and 800 relay teams of Knox Cleveland, Malik Elion, Ethan Gibson, Noah Arrindell and Aaron Perry earned state titles in 41.81 and 1:27.28, respectively. “I was just hoping that nothing went wrong,” White said. “I can’t believe I just (swept the AAA hurdles).”

The other standout individual performer last Friday night was Maat, a senior from Cordova who’s headed to Illinois. Maat

won the Class AAA 100 in 10.47, which would have been a state record (10.50) had it not been wind-aided, and the 200 in 21.38.

“It was a real great day, not only knowing I had the fastest (100 and 200) times in AAA, but overall,” Maat said.

Other winners were Christian Brothers in the 800 relay (1:27.96), Oakhaven senior Kederick Longstreet in the Class A-AA triple jump (44-7.75) and Southwind junior Jacob Patten in the Class AAA high jump (6-10).

McCallie pitcher shuts out MUS for D2-AA baseball title

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

MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — The “if” game turned into an “if only” game for the MUS baseball team last Thursday.

As in, if only they were facing a diferent pitcher.

Elliot Dockery pitched a complete-game four-hitter to lead Chattanooga McCallie to an 8-0 victory over the Owls in the Division 2-AA championship game at MTSU’s Reese Smith Jr. Field.

The Owls forced the game by beating McCallie 10-7 earlier in the day.

The Blue Tornado entered the day undefeated in the tournament; MUS had come through the losers bracket to reach the inal.

But Dockery, a senior right-hander, made sure McCallie wouldn’t lose twice, striking out eight.

“He’s crafty,” said MUS coach Johnny Beard. “He was spotting up and using his curve ball. A lot of times pitchers can’t throw their curve for strikes consistently but he was.”

Compounding the problems for the Owls (24-16) was uncharacteristically poor ielding. They committed ive errors, including three in the second inning, which helped McCallie score ive runs.

Owls starter Blake Bennett, who gave up ive runs — four unearned — in three innings, took the loss.

It was another frustrating inish for MUS, which has inished runner-up in four of the last ive years.

“A lot of people had written us of about three weeks ago,” said Beard.

“But we turned it around.

This is the most unselish group of seniors I’ve ever coached and I have the best assistants in the state.

“Our program is getting better. We’re not being taken lightly anymore.”

Celebration was in order after Christian Brothers beat Baylor, 1-0, in the Division 2-AA boys soccer game in Murfreesboro.

Junior Chris DiPietro scored the only goal in the Brothers’ victory, which sent coach Rogerio Lima out with a championship.

TRA FALLS TO USJ Having to come through the losers bracket proved just a little too much for Tipton-Rosemark to overcome as the Rebels lost to University School of Jackson, 8-4, in the Division 2-A championship game.

“We had to ight our way back,” said standout senior Connor Alexander.

Early on, it looked like they would. The Rebels (34-8) scored four runs in the top of the irst, with Logan Stewart and Jacob LaFosse driving in runs.

But USJ sophomore starter Alex Garrett settled down nicely after that and held TRA to just two hits over the inal six innings after giving up three in the irst.

And after taking a pair of must-win games against Battle Ground Academy and Knoxville Webb last Wednesday, there just wasn’t much left in TRA’s pitching staf.

“We were saving one (pitcher) if needed for the second game,” said TRA coach Brad Smith. “But you can’t win the second one until you win the irst one.

“But this is a special group. They competed their tails of; they battled and played their hearts out for the team and I appreciate them.”

Wave captures 2-AA soccer title; St. George’s falls

By Michael Cohen mcohen@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2525

MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — For so long Christian Brothers High School had knocked at the Baylor School front door. With oodles of passes and beautiful possession the Brothers moved the ball efortlessly from the defensive third and through the midield, pushing toward the Red Raiders’ back line.

But then, as if blocked by some invisible wall, each attack broke down right on the doorstep — poor passes, ineffective dribbling, of-target crosses. Again and again and again.

Finally, with 12 minutes remaining, the force ield vanished.

Chris DiPietro, a crafty junior, uncorked a low shot from the top of the box that was parried away

by Baylor goalkeeper Colin Brewer. The rebound bounced to freshman Cole Cannon, who smashed the ball into a wide-open net.

Cannon’s goal was the winner in a Division 2 Class AA championship game that inished 1-0.

With CBHS dominating possession and Baylor counterattacking at every opportunity, the fans inside the Siegel Soccer Complex were treated to a physical, endto-end thriller. And when it was over, after the initial celebrations, the CBHS players had but one request for head coach Rogerio Lima: “Coach, can we get some water?”

“Go get some water,” Lima shouted back. “I think you deserve it.”

It was an emotional victory for Lima, who coached his last game

Dejected St. George teammates Vasili Doan (left) and John Hankes leave the field after losing to Battle Ground Academy, 2-0.

for the Purple Wave.

Lima is taking a new job at Lausanne Collegiate School on June 1, and his sentiments poured out in a choked-up postgame speech.

“This is the moment you’ll remember 20 years from now,” Lima told his players. “You’ll talk about it forever.”

They responded with cheers.

EARLY GOALS TRIP ST. GEORGE’S Of to the side of the ield at the Siegel Soccer Complex sat a dejected group of players and a head coach who fed them nothing but the truth. They were outworked, he said, outplayed and outtoughed and thoroughly beaten

by Battle Ground Academy.

The 2-0 loss to Battle Ground Academy (19-1) was a disappointing end for coach Tony Whicker and his bunch from St. George’s Independent School. And though reaching the inal for the second

consecutive year was a great achievement, Whicker and his staf left the ield knowing their players had failed to answer the bell one last time.

“We worked really hard to get to this point,” Whicker said, “and then when we got here, we stopped working. They beat us plain and simple.”

The St. George’s defense yielded two goals in the irst 25 minutes, twice failing to clear away an initial shot. BGA seized both of the extra opportunities, with Alex Smith putting away a loose ball in the fourth minute and Daniel Brown doing the same 20 minutes later.

Though the second half brought a more energized, more focused attack from St. George’s, the Gryphons lacked the interplay to break through the last line of BGA’s defense. Push after push was turned aside, and eventually the clock ran out.

Annual junior fishing rodeo set for June 7 Special to The Weekly

Creative Aging members recently presented the second annual Games Day event at the Memphis Jewish Community Center.

Creative Aging presents Game Day at MJCC

By Terrie Kirksey Special to The Weekly

Creative Aging, a 10year old nonproit organization that brings the arts to life where seniors live, understands the value of improving and reairming life through the creative process. Its work enhances the social and cognitive health of older adults through arts engagement.

And because research shows that mental activities, such as games and the magic of music can also keep the brain sharp, Creative Aging recently held its second annual Game Day hosted by the Memphis Jewish Community Center.

The fun-illed afternoon included classic strategy games, laugh-out-loud party games, socializing with new and old friends and piano music by Creative Aging resident artist, Diana Stein. More than 100 diverse attendees, ranging in age from 50 to 90, illed three tables of mahjong players and many lively

groups of seniors playing Trivial Pursuit, dominoes, chess and other popular board games.

Everyone was a winner at Game Day with a door prize for all thanks to our sponsors including CignaHealthSpring, Belmont Village, Edward Jones Agent Julia San Roman, Foxbridge, Home Instead, St. Peter Manor, The Gardens of Germantown, The Best Times, The Village at Germantown, Vista Care, and ZOUNDS. One lucky winner went home with a Coach wallet.

And none of this would have been possible without the brain power of MJCC senior adult coordinator Jennifer Roberts and her mother and Creative Aging volunteer, Patti Elster who led a team of volunteers to make this fundraiser a success.

For more information on Creative Aging or to volunteer, call 901-2723434 or visit creativeagingmidsouth.com.

Terrie Kirksey is the Creative Aging assistant director.

A lifetime hunting and ishing license, plus a three-day, two-night vacation to Reelfoot Lake are two of the prizes on the line when the Germantown Parks and Recreation Department plays host to the 14th annual Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency Mid-South Junior Fishing Rodeo on June 7 at Johnson Road Park in Germantown. Children ages 6-12 are eligible to ish in this free event.

Noted Mid-South anglers Carl Graham of Corinth, Miss., and Ron Wong of Memphis, along with several members of the Memphis area chapter of Legacy Outitters will be on-site to help assist anglers. And it’s not unusual for TV personality Bill Dance to make an appearance at the rodeo.

“I wouldn’t miss the rodeo for anything in the world,” Graham said.

“It’s one of my favorite things to do every year. I just love to see all those kids catching ish and having fun in a wonderful family environment.”

In fact, Graham, a former Collierville resident, said he plans a special prize for this year’s event. He said he will take the youth who catches the heaviest ish on a four-hour bluegill

ishing trip on Pickwick Lake.

The park’s lake will be stocked with about 1,500 pounds of catish weighing up to three pounds, according to Dave Rizzuto, Carl TWRA Region 1 ishGraham eries biologist. Prizes will be awarded to the youth in each age group. Also, prizes will be drawn throughout the rodeo from registration forms.

Larry Rea of Germantown, host of Outdoors with Larry Rea on Sports 790-AM and retired outdoors editor for The Commercial Appeal, will serve as the rodeo’s emcee and director. Dave Gabbard, information oicer for the TWRA based out of its Region 1 oice in Jackson, and Wong, a two-time winner of the St. Jude Bass Classic, will assist with emcee duties.

Realtor Jackie Welch of Germantown again has agreed to fund the purchase of a lifetime hunting and ishing license to one of the rodeo’s participants. All Tennessee participants will be eligible to win this prize. The winner will be drawn from registration forms.

Also, the grand champion, along with his or her immediate family, will win a vacation at Blue Bank Resort on Reelfoot Lake courtesy of resort owner Mike Hayes, a longtime rodeo supporter. When asked if he’d host the rodeo champion again in 2014, Hayes said, “Put me down for the next 10 years.”

Prizes will be awarded to the youngster in each age group with the most points — 10 for bass, seven for crappie, ive for catish, three for bluegill/bream and 1 for “other” ish.

Door prizes are drawn from registration forms throughout the rodeo.

No ishing license is needed. Each participant is responsible for their own rod, reel and bait.

On-site registration will be from 7-9 a.m. with ishing from 9-11 a.m.

Checkout is 11 a.m. Johnson Road Park is located behind Germantown Baptist Church. Signs will be posted on Poplar. Registration forms have been distributed throughout the Shelby Metro area. They should be mailed to: TWRA, 200 Lowell Thomas Drive, Jackson, TN 38301.

For information, contact the TWRA Region I oice in Jackson at 731-423-5725 or Germantown Parks and Recreation at 901-757-7375.

Adoption fees lowered to $20 as Rachael Ray Challenge starts

By Katie Pemberton Special to The Weekly

The Humane Society of Memphis & Shelby County will host the “HSMSC Draft� at its facility on Sunday ofering dog and cat adoptions for just $20 and staying open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The “HSMSC Draft� $20 adoption event will serve as the kickof for HSMSC’s eforts in the ASPCA Rachael Ray $100K Challenge, which runs from June 1 through Aug. 31.

HSMSC will compete against 50 other shelters nationwide for grant funding and has chosen “Team Up with the Humane Society� as its theme for the three-month challenge period.

Participating shelters are tasked with increasing adoptions by at least 300 more than the same three-month period during the previous year and getting their communities involved. “A 300-adoption increase is indeed a major challenge for us, and that’s why we need everyone in the community to ‘team up’ with us to help us meet our goal of saving 700 lives this summer,� said Alexis Amorose, executive director of the Humane Society. “We invite you to come recruit your newest team member at the ‘HSMSC Draft’ with adoption fees of just $20!�

Individuals and businesses who would like to help, but cannot adopt, can help in a number of other ways —

GIVING BACK

Adventure, purpose in meetings, Part 2

sponsor an adoption for $50, become a volunteer, become a foster parent, join HSMSC’s e-mail list, like the Humane Society on Facebook; follow on Twitter; follow on Instagram, share adoptable animals via social media or email “We are evaluated based not only on our adoption numbers, but also on how involved and engaged our community is during the process,� said Amorose. “So the more donors, volunteers, fosters, email subscribers, and social media followers we get during the three-month period, the better our chances of being awarded grant funds.�

For more information, visit memphishumane.org, call 901- 937-3900 or visit the facility at 935 Farm Road.

The reduced adoption fee applies to approved adopters only who have completed an adoption application and passed all screening processes.

The ASPCA Rachael Ray $100K Challenge is a groundbreaking contest that challenges animal shelters across the country to come up with innovative ways to engage their communities and get more homeless cats and dogs into loving homes.

For more information about the 2013 ASPCA Rachael Ray $100K Challenge, please visit aspca.org/100K. Katie Pemberton is the PR/marketing manager for the Humane Society of Memphis & Shelby County.

If you are looking to spark new ideas and foster collaboration among your team, provide a setting that will encourage activity and creativity.

Last week we shared LLE APPEAL some ways to shake up your next meeting by taking it Jeremy C. of-site and Park adding adventure and purpose. This week, let us explore a few more ideas.

For high-adventure, look to Team BRIDGES, where you can teambuild while rock climbing and balancing 40 feet above the ground. Their BRIDGES Challenge is a two-hour customized experience led by their internationally trained staf. It incorporates the AutoZone High Adventure Challenge Course and the Memphis Grizzlies Climbing Wall, which will literally take your meeting to new heights. Group outings can be scheduled Monday through Friday from 8am6pm and Saturdays from 8a-12p. Their BRIDGES Center is located at 477 North 5th Street. Visit www.teambridges.org or call 901-260-3775 for more information.

Start your meeting day of at a Porter-Leath Head Start Center. Their team makes it easy and fun to play with the children. Simply have your team meet at Porter-Leath, stay for 30 minutes, an hour, or more, then head of to your meeting illed with renewed enthusiasm and perspective.

Contact Rob Hughes at rhughes@porterleath.org for more information.

If hosting a large event or limited on mobility, throw your attendees a musical curve ball with an original operetta. Contact Ned Canty at Opera Memphis (ned@operamemphis. org) and see why their 30 Days of Opera — a month long celebration featuring free public performances — has become a smashing success Jeremy C. Park is president of the Lipscomb & Pitts Breakfast Club. He is host of “The Spark� on WKNO-TV Channel 10 and the “Lipscomb & Pitts Breakfast Club� on KWAM-AM 990.
