Green Hills intersection realignment project faces delay NDOT works through legal process to procure mall land needed for work to align Crestmoor, Glen Echo roads
NICOLLE S. PRAINO

The Nashville Department of Transportation and Multimodal Infrastructure is working to procure a piece of The Mall at Green Hills Mall property for its longplanned project to align Crestmoor and Glen Echo roads.

Metro councilmembers Jeff Preptit and Sandy Ewing, whose Districts 25 and 34 converge at Crestmoor, told the Post that as NDOT worked to acquire the property, the appraisal process resulted in a price Metro did not agree with.

The Mall at Green Hills parent company, an LLC affiliated with Bloomfield Hills, Mich.-based The Taubman Company, owns the property, with a main address of 2114 Green Hills Village Drive. The property offers a building home to Carrabba’s, among other businesses, though that structure is not needed. Specifically, Metro needs the northeast segment of the overall property, which serves as a minor entrance via Hillsboro Pike to the mall.

The Crieve Hall property running along Interstate 65 and on which once stood a controversial statue of Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest has seen the removal of 13 flags honoring the Confederacy and the Battle of Nashville.

An LLC owns the 3.59-acre property, having paid $420,000 for it in April 2023, Metro records note. The address is 701 Hogan Road.

A trust involving the estate of the late William “Bill” Dorris willed the bulk of

the property in April 2020 to the Battle of Nashville Trust (BONT). Dorris died in November 2020, garnering national headlines for setting up the trust, reportedly valued at $5 million, for his border collie Lulu. The Dorris will stipulated that nonprofit organization Sons of Confederate Veterans (SCV) control the flags and their poles via a 99-year deed (and accessed via an easement on the property).

As noted, the Battle of Nashville Trust sold the property 1.5 years ago to an LLC

affiliated with Philip Lindsley, who owns a local business that handles custom auto work and vehicle stereo installation. The 2023 sale stipulated that the flag poles and flags remain on the site, as dictated by the Dorris will and its legally binding contract with the SCV.

Years ago, Dorris enlisted Jack Kershaw — a co-founder and board member of the League of the South — to create the statue that has since been removed. This fiberglass art piece offered a sword-and-gun-wielding Forrest sitting astride a rearing

Preptit told The News that NDOT is working through the court process of eminent domain to acquire the property.

“Both myself and councilmember Ewing are both consistently monitoring the situation and making sure that this does not fall through the cracks because this is something that Metro has been working on for a long time,” Preptit said. “Just because there are delays does not mean that things are not being done.”

According to NDOT public information coordinator Brendan Scully,

warhorse (and that many locals felt was cartoonish looking). From 1867 to 1869, Forrest served as the first grand wizard of the Ku Klux Klan. The Southern Poverty Law Center characterized the League of the South as a hate group in 2000. (The statue, which was vandalized with pink paint in 2017 and toppled at some point after that, was removed from the site in 2021.)

According to H. Edward Phillips III, a Franklin-based attorney who represents the Sons of Confederate Veterans, at the time of the 2020 testamentary gift, the majority of the historic property was granted to the Battle of Nashville Trust. However, the Dorris estate provided an easement for the flag park and two smaller historical features for the SCV, headquartered in Columbia. This was based on historical considerations that the flag element should remain as is.

However, according to Phillips, the BONT trustee was requested to resolve

Fisk Jubilee

the dilemma between the two nonprofits regarding what flags should be displayed. It was decided that a multitude of Confederate battle flags failed to represent both sides that fought in the Battle of Nashville, and the trustee opted for an updated display — with the United States flag and current-day state flags of both Union and Confederate states that participated in the December 1864 battle as more site appropriate. As a result, the replacement flags were recently installed.

Phillips said he respects the trustee’s decision to make the change.

“While I understand the decision, it is my hope that the SCV in partnering with the BONT, we may be able to return the First National Flag of the Confederacy, commonly referred to as the Stars and Bars — and which is similar to the U.S. Betsy Ross flag — to the display.”

Singers

to

perform in Green Hills Fundraiser to support local literacy program

STAFF REPORTS

The Grammy-award-winning Fisk Jubilee Singers are set to perform at Woodmont Christian Church in Green Hills on Oct. 27 as part of a fundraiser to help support educational improvement in North Nashville. The event, which will take place at 6 p.m., is being jointly hosted by Woodmont and Lee Chapel AME Church. Tickets are $50 and are currently available online. All proceeds for the event will benefit Lee Chapel’s after-school literacy and tutorial program. Tickets can be purchased online at zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/cefdf9f5-ab404c27-ba16-7f296b48c77d.

Taubman provided an appraisal value that differed from Metro’s appraisal. After negotiating, both parties agreed that condemnation — the legal process by which property is acquired through eminent domain — would be the best way to reach an agreement, considering the difference of appraisal value.

Scully said the department has an order for possession of the property, which allows construction to move forward while the city works through the condemnation process. However, NDOT must still wait on mediation with the property owner, which is at least one month out.

While working to procure the property, NDOT has been able to begin the realignment process with underground utilities.

“Currently, we are in the utility relocation phase,” Scully said. “[Nashville Electric Service] has installed five new poles. Other utility companies that have a license to be on

the NES poles are now required to remove and relocate their equipment from the old to new poles. Once this is completed, our contractor will be looking to start work on the storm drain on Hillsboro Pike.”

A more detailed schedule update for the project eventually will be provided, according to NDOT.

In a newsletter to her District 34 constituents, Ewing recently shared the information of the delay in the project due to the property acquisition process.

“I hope we can come to some sort of agreement quickly because people have been waiting on this project for a long time,” Ewing told The News. “For the people living around that area, I know that there’s a level of frustration. But they should know we are doing what we can to push through those issues, and we hope the project will be back on track quickly.”

Franklin Pastor Kevin Riggs teams up with death row Pastor Kevin Burns for new book

The book details life and faith behind bars

HAMILTON MATTHEW MASTERS

Around two dozen people gathered in Franklin on Sept. 26 to celebrate the launch of a new book by Tennessee death row inmate and Pastor Kevin Burns and his co-author, Franklin pastor and anti-death penalty advocate Dr. Kevin Riggs.

Today! - The Best Day of My Life chronicles the life, imprisonment and faith of the 55-year-old Burns, who saw the exhaustion of his last legal options in 2023. Burns has been imprisoned since being arrested on his 23rd birthday in 1992.

That incident saw Burns caught up in a gunfight in Shelby County that killed two people — Damon Dawson and Tracey Johnson — and put three others, including Burns, in prison for murder.

Kevin — inside of Nashville’s Riverbend Maximum Security Institution. Riggs now considers Burns his pastor.

The book is a culmination of that relationship building. Riggs visited death row multiple times a week for months with a prison-approved pen and notebook, working as both a scribe and collaborator.

“KB would tell stories, and then I would just write down everything, and then go back and write as if I’m KB, and then take it back to KB, he’d read over and say ‘yes’ or ‘no,’” Riggs said.

“That was the process that we did, and I basically didn’t do anything but that for three months and actually finished it on a cruise.”

Nashville by helping to improve reading proficiency and academic performance.

“Reading proficiency is not just about academic success, it’s about building a foundation for a successful life,” program director Karen Woolridge said in a release.

“Our tutoring program is designed to give students the support they need to thrive both in and out of the classroom.”

The concert will serve as a fundraiser for the current school year as well as provide seed funding for the program’s ongoing support. Sponsorships are available at multiple levels, including church partnerships and blocks of tickets for use or donation.

The two other men were each given life sentences and both have since been released on parole. Crucial arguments that could have spared Burns from death row weren’t made during his 1995 trial. Burns and his current lawyer Richard Tennent, an assistant federal defender, have described the actions by his then-lawyers as legal negligence.

“You shouldn’t be able to receive the death penalty if you didn’t actually kill someone,” U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor argued in her 2023 dissent (joined by Justices Kentanji Brown Jackson and Elena Kagan) when the court ultimately refused to take up the case.

Riggs has spent years visiting death row and forging relationships with its inmates, and in 2018, Riggs ordained Burns — also known to friends as KB, Pastor KB, or just

Burns serves at both Riverbend’s The Church of Life and at Franklin Community Church, where he preaches through recorded phone calls.

About 45 minutes into the book launch event, Burns called in to a cell phone of an attendee — one of the few people on his approved call list — where he spoke to the crowd on speaker phone.

Burns spoke of his time in prison, his experiences leading the death row ministry and the process and impact of writing the book with Riggs.

“I don’t know if any of you know how it feels to be muzzled or to feel like you’ve been muzzled and not able to speak on your own behalf, [to have] other people speaking for you, but for me to have that opportunity to tell my story, it was like a release for me,” Burns said through the crackling phone line.

“Finally, [it’s] just like a weight off of my shoulders, off my chest, feelings both of joy and sometimes of struggle, remembering stuff, talking about stuff you really don’t want to talk about, but overall, just thinking about how far God has brought me and how he’s been faithful to me every step of the way,” Burns continued. “I’ve never, not one moment, felt alone. I’ve always felt the presence of God with me.”

While Riggs and Burns share their faith in God, they are also hoping to earn the faith of Gov. Bill Lee, who is Burns’ last hope of escaping death row.

Riggs has worked to advocate on Burn’s behalf to Lee in the form of letters all while Lee suspended executions in Tennessee in 2022 and appointed new leadership in 2023, which could see the return of capital punishment in the state.

“The more we get the word out, the more hands that the book gets into, then the more likely that it’ll find its way to the powers that be who can make the decisions,” Riggs told The News. “Gov. Lee’s a man of faith, and he knows this story, and I’m just, I’m hoping he does read the book…and that it’ll do what it needs to do in his heart to see that KB deserves clemency, and then he deserves parole.”

Burns closed his remarks with a prayer, everyone’s heads bowed in faith, some 20 miles separating the faithful free from Burns in captivity, but with that shared faith connecting them despite the distance.

“We can proudly call this [that] today is the best day of my life, and we understand that you are with us and when you are with us and if you are with us, you are more than the world,”

“You have one minute remaining” an automated voice interjected.

“Lord, we love you. We always praise you, in Jesus’ name, Amen.”

“Amen,” the crowd responded.

Today! - The Best Day of My Life can be purchased at bookstores or online, with proceeds from the book benefitting Franklin Community Church’s Floods of Justice advocacy ministry.

Local lawyer sues Middle District Court for gag order Daniel Horwitz teams with Institute for Justice in federal lawsuit

Nashville attorney Daniel Horwitz and attorneys from the Institute for Justice have filed a federal lawsuit challenging an attorney gag order rule by the U.S. District Court’s Middle District of Tennessee.

Horwitz operates a solo legal practice that routinely takes cases of First Amendment law and speech defense as well as post-conviction and innocence litigation. In 2022, he was ordered by a federal magistrate to refrain from making public comments about a wrongful death case at Trousdale Turner Correctional Facility against Brentwoodbased CoreCivic, a private prison contractor. The U.S. Department of Justice announced in August that it is investigating conditions at the Trousdale facility, along

with the Middle District of Tennessee’s U.S. Attorney’s Office.

In the federal suit against the Middle District, Horwitz asserts the rule to stop him from speaking publicly “creates a presumption that anything an attorney says” could impact proceedings. The case also states “such presumptions against open dialogue are antithetical to the First Amendment.”

The complaint alleges that CoreCivic invoked the gag order rule, which was implemented by the court “to silence public discussion on matters of public interest.”

CoreCivic claimed Horwitz’s comments prejudiced the company’s right to a fair trial. The complaint notes instead of offering proof CoreCivic invoked the rule and

Don’t Feed the Plants!

ultimately shifted the burden to Horwitz to prove that his speech would not prejudice the right to a fair trial.

Horwitz told the court the gag order would violate his rights, according to press release about the filing. But the court required him to delete his social media posts and ruled he would be found in contempt of court if he continued to publicly speak. He filed other cases against CoreCivic and in those motioned the court for a decision to uphold his right to speak. The press release states Horwitz was unable to get a ruling on his First Amendment rights during the litigation with CoreCivic.

The federal case seeks a declaration that the burden provision and presumption of

prejudice in the local rule violates the First Amendment and asks the federal court to stop the Middle District from being able to enforce the rule unless a party can prove that the speech is “substantially likely to materially prejudice an impending trial” and is “the least-restrictive means of ensuring a fair trial.”

Based near Washington, D.C. in Arlington County, Va., the Institute for Justice is a nonprofit public interest law firm that participates in cases such as that of Horwitz. Institute for Justice attorneys Jared McClain and Ben Field have joined Horwitz in the case.

Studio Tenn opens season with a delectable ‘Little Shop of Horrors’

AMY STUMPFL

Alan Menken and Howard Ashman are probably best known as the creative force behind Disney’s animation renaissance. But even before churning out unforgettable hits like The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin, this dynamic duo gifted the musical theater world with an instant classic called Little Shop of Horrors Premiering off-off-Broadway in 1982, this quirky musical about a man-eating plant immediately took off – transferring to the Orpheum Theatre off-Broadway, where it broke box-office records and ran for more than five years. Since then, it’s been revisited many times – from the 1986 film starring Rick Moranis to the 2003 Broadway production that was considered a “revival” at the Tony Awards, despite the fact that it

marked the musical’s Broadway debut. The current off-Broadway revival just recently marked its fifth year at the Westside Theatre, and it’s a perennial favorite among regional and community players.

But whether you know the story by heart or are experiencing it for the very first time, Studio Tenn’s current staging provides a particularly tasty treat. Artistic Director Patrick Cassidy has gathered a marvelous ensemble that includes both new and familiar talent. New York-based actor JP Coletta anchors the piece as the lovable flower shop clerk Seymour, demonstrating sharp comic timing and strong vocals.

Savannah Stein offers another notable Studio Tenn debut as Seymour’s secret crush Audrey, punctuating her lines with sweet

Kewpie doll looks and giving a wonderfully wistful take on “Somewhere That’s Green.”

She and Coletta share a nice chemistry, and together they deliver an especially tender rendition of “Suddenly, Seymour.”

Meanwhile, Brian Michael Jones is delightfully demented as Audrey’s “semisadist” boyfriend, Dr. Orin Scrivello, D.D.S. Jones is terrific in “Dentist!,” but also earns big laughs with a quick succession of goofy characters in Act II. Matthew Carlton is picture-perfect as Mr. Mushnik, making the most of comic bits like “Closed for Renovation” and “Mushnik and Son.”

And you’d be hard-pressed to find a more glorious group of street urchins than Jennifer Whitcomb-Oliva, Meggan Utech and Maya Antoinette Riley. Serving as a gritty Greek

chorus of sorts (and executing Anna Perry’s clever choreography with style), this brilliant trio balances cheeky commentary with smooth harmonies and plenty of attitude. And then there’s Audrey II – the wisecracking, blood-thirsty plant that’s bent on world domination. Garyon Judon is superb in the role, his velvety voice ringing out in numbers like “Feed Me (Git It)” and “Suppertime.” Puppeteer Jonah M. Jackson also deserves mention for providing the plant’s unearthly moves. (And kudos to designers Martin P. Robinson, Nicholas Mahon and Monkey Boys Productions – the same team responsible for the amazing Audrey II puppets currently appearing in the off-Broadway production.)

Matt Logan’s revolving set is beautifully detailed – from the frosted glass windows of Mushnik’s Flower Shop to the dingy decay of Skid Row. And there’s a nifty silhouetted skyline (lit by Michael Barnett) that helps set the tone for each scene. Logan also designed the fabulous costumes, and I really appreciated the evolving fashions for the urchins.

But it all comes back to Menken and Ashman’s iconic songs. And in the capable hands of music director Randy Craft and his crackerjack orchestra, they soar here. As the company reminds us in the show’s final number, “Don’t Feed the Plants.” However, if you’re looking for a great evening of musical theater that feeds the soul, audiences need look no further than Studio Tenn’s richly satisfying Little Shop of Horrors Little Shop of Horrors continues through Oct. 27 at The Turner Theater, at the Factory at Franklin, 230 Franklin Rd.

Scoop Nashville founder Jason Steen dies at 44 The controversial figure’s sites celebrated sensational crime news

STEVE CAVENDISH, NASHVILLE BANNER

This story is a partnership between the Nashville Banner and The News. The Nashville Banner is a nonprofit, nonpartisan news organization focused on civic news. Visit nashvillebanner.com for more information.

Jason Steen, the proprietor of Scoop Nashville, died Friday night at the University of Kentucky Medical Center in Lexington. He was 44, and the cause was heart failure. Steen

had received a heart replacement in 2017. Through Scoop Nashville, Steen practiced a brand of journalism that was scorned by many, relying on public records, social media and internet rumor to produce stories that were often sensational and exploitative. A current sample of recent items on the site includes overdoses, drunk and disorderly behavior on Lower Broadway, domestic disturbances, theft and assault.

Well-connected with numerous law enforcement sources, Steen ran a site that was watched by many traditional journalists, even those who turned up their noses at his style. His site was one of the first to break the news that country music star Morgan Wallen threw a stool from a rooftop bar and almost injured a police officer.

Scoop’s social media feed became a destination for police chases, street racing videos and, of course, mugshots. Steen illustrated many of his site and social media posts with the mugshots of the newly arrested, often obtained by public records requests. The use of a mugshot, while legal, made Steen the target of legal and personal threats because the pictures would outlive whatever criminal charges they were attached

Obituary: Josephine “Jodie” “Jojo”

Her family mourns the passing of Josephine, “Jodie” “Jojo” “Plum” Davenport Barringer.

A Memphian by birth, Jodie was both a town mouse and a country mouse. She was fast-paced like the city, but loved running barefoot through her grandparents’ farm in old ripped Levi’s. Whether city or country, her laugh could be heard and felt from miles away.

Jodie moved to Nashville after graduating from Ole Miss, where she started a family and quickly captured Nashville’s heart. She began her career as a high school English

to. For several years, Steen ran a pay-for-play operation that allowed people to remove stories and mugshots for a fee.

Though Scoop was popular — at its prepandemic height, Steen’s network of sites included most of the counties surrounding Nashville and a mugshot site in Texas — it wasn’t always a financial success. Steen filed for bankruptcy in 2022 after facing multiple lawsuits the year before for not paying his employees.

His death divided many on social media, with some cheering the news and others, including some current and former councilmembers, lamenting his loss.

“Remember Steen as he lived: He extorted people, stole wages from his employees, got innocent people fired, put trans people and abuse victims at risk by posting their name-change petitions, and paid children to film school fights,” said attorney Sarah Martin. “And yes, sometimes he broke important stories.”

Brian Sullivan, a former candidate for Metro Council, tangled with Steen for years. He appealed online for people to show mercy in Steen’s passing: “Most people I know, at some point, have been personally

teacher at Franklin Road Academy where she inspired many students whose paths would continue to cross throughout their lives.

Her love of creating something out of nothing led her to create her own business, named after her daughter’s love of playing house, which she aptly named “Let’s Play House”. Her entrepreneurial mindset paved the path for an inspiring and one-of-a-kind career in Nashville’s luxury real estate market

A top producer in the Nashville market for years, she was awarded the Silver Level Awards of Excellence in 2001, 2002 and 2008, Gold Level Awards of Excellence in 2003, 2004, 2009 and 2010, Platinum Level Awards of Excellence in 2005, 2011, 2012 and 2013 and Sapphire Level Awards of Excellence in 2006 and 2007 by GNAR. She was awarded Nashville Business Journal Top 25 Agents of Middle Tennessee in 2020.

Her column in her weekly advertisement in the Green Hills News, titled “News from the Homefront” revolutionized the way real estate was marketed and communicated. In her writings, readers not only found a savvy businesswoman, but a trusted confidante and their new hilarious best friend.

Jodie was a hard worker in every sense. Her athletic abilities and tenacity were highlighted at her favorite 5.8-mile loop at Percy Warner Park, where earlier in life she

victimized by Jason Steen, myself included. In our last breath, we all call out for our mother and reach for someone’s hand. Had I been there, I would still have offered mine.”

Though Steen was openly gay, he had an often contentious relationship with some members of the LGBTQ community. He often posted on social media about Nashvillians, sometimes closeted, who he found on sites like Grindr.

“I wanted to put something out because in our community, in the gay community, he is sort of known as this instigator who has caused people a lot of pain,” Sullivan tells the Nashville Banner.

Regardless, Steen likely would have relished the attention his passing generated.

“His sister said today, ‘Mom, he would have loved this,’” says Debbie Wallace, his mother, although she added that some of the vitriol aimed at her son was “a little hard to take.”

Steen is survived by his mother, father, three sisters, a brother and five cats. Visitation will be at the Macon County Memorial Gardens on Monday and burial will be held on Tuesday.

could be found running the loop pushing a stroller with two babies in tow. It was not uncommon for her to be stopped in the street with compliments on her gorgeous legs and stunning figure. She sat on the board of the YMCA. She found mental and physical clarity through exercise and enjoyed pushing her body and mind to its limit.

Jodie was a God-fearing woman, and God may have feared her a little bit too. She was full of life, sparkle, love, jazz, spirit, dancing, and music. Her imagination knew no limits. Her ability to connect with anyone was because of her love for everyone. Jodie was an adoring mother of two, devoted daughter, loyal sister and aunt, profound writer, real estate agent extraordinaire, and not only the life of the party, but the entire party. Her sense of humor, intelligence and charismatic charm felt otherworldly. Her hugs were famous.

Her laughter was infectious, her energy uncontainable and her ability to pull people out of their comfort zones made her a cherished presence at every gathering. She had a knack for making everyone feel seen and celebrated and her presence will be deeply missed by all who were lucky enough to experience her uniquely beautiful spirit.

She gave away a little bit of herself to everyone she met until there was nothing left to give.

She had recently started Flying with Heels On, a brand with the goal to help recently divorced women start anew and gain financial independence. We know her legacy lives on and she’s flying with heels on this moment. We encourage anyone able to attend Wednesday’s service to please wear your heels and fly with Jodie.

In today’s world, mental illness and addiction are terms used frequently but these terms are not one size fits all. Either you know someone with an addiction, or you are someone with an addiction. We are so proud of her and every chapter of her life. We are proud of her successes and embrace her struggles. Although we don’t understand all of God’s plan, we move forward knowing she is at peace with loved ones and with God. Jodie is preceded in death by her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. LT Barringer and Dr. and Mrs. Harry J. Guffee. Jodie is survived by her parents, Betty Jane and Johnny Barringer, her daughter Libby McLellan (Lee), daughter Leila Smith, brother Johnny (Laurie), nephew Johnathan, and niece Carly.

In famous Jodie closure, “Kiss your babies, tell your parents you love them and take a walk in the park with a friend.”

Smokin’ Thighs closes

After a decade of doing business in Wedgewood-Houston, Smokin’ Thighs has closed its doors. The restaurant’s final day of service was Sunday.

The closing comes after former Smokin’ Thighs owner Matthew Carney died on July 4, about two weeks after being struck in a hit-and-run in the parking lot of his restaurant. After Carney’s death, a suspect in the case was apprehended and charged with criminal homicide.

On Friday evening, Carney’s widow Molly Vice posted the following statement on social media:

Five free and cheap family things to do in Middle Tennessee

This weekend it’ll be tough to figure out where to get all that fall festival energy out. First up, you can hit a twofer at the rescheduled Fall Ball, Y’all at the Nashville Farmers’ Market, which is now happening on the same day as the Haunted Museum Storytelling Festival next door at the Tennessee State Museum. (Arrive early to park is my advice.) There are also fall festivals in Murfreesboro, Mt. Juliet, and others not on this list on the same day. And then for your older children, there’s a STEAM event at The Frist Museum that looks worth checking out.

As part of our series on free cheap things to do with the family, here is our weekly roundup of places to spend time together over the next week:

HAUNTED MUSEUM STORYTELLING FESTIVAL

On Oct. 19 from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., Tennessee State Museum is slated to host its 26th annual Haunted Museum Storytelling Festival, a favorite for our family. The family day at the museum includes Hallween decor throughout the museum, prizes, crafts, stories and games. Kids are encouraged to dress in their costumes to hear all kinds of spooky Tennessee stories. The Nashville Puppet Truck will also be on site as well as several spooky stations throughout the free facility.

FALL BALL, Y’ALL FESTIVAL

The Nashville Farmers’ Market is also hosting its Fall Ball, Y’all from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., right next to the Tennessee State Museum. The day will include live bluegrass

music from Off the Wagon and singersongwriter Mattie Taylor, a petting zoo with pony rides, cooking demonstrations, a screen printing zone, a paint-your-own-pumpkin station, fall vegetables and goods, a photo booth and more.

RUTHERFORD PARENT’S FALL KIDS FEST

If you’re closer to the south side of town, The Avenue in Murfreesboro is slated for a day of autumnal fun at the Rutherford Parent’s Fall Kids Fest. The event begins at 10 a.m., and costumes are encouraged. The day includes trick-or-treating, games and more, and will be hosted behind Belk.

HALLOWEEN IN THE PARK MT. JULIET

Mt. Juliet’s 2024 Halloween in the Park

is also on Oct. 19 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. There’ll be a costume contest, hay ride, petting zoo, inflatables, vendor booths and lots of free candy.

LEONARDO YOUTH MAKER MIXER

If you’re looking for something out of the fall festival zone, this event is for kids aged 10 to 18. Young people will be asked to solve a design challenge for a chance to win a prize and will also have the chance to see PechaKucha presentations from Oasis’ Underground Art Studio, Adventure Science Center, Nashville Ballet, STUDIO NPL, and Oasis Bike Workshop. Clips from Leonardo Da Vinci, a PBS film, will be shown at the event, which is free and takes place at The Frist on Oct. 19 from 1-4:30 p.m. Register ahead of time to ensure a slot.

OPINION

TICKED OFF!

BUILDING A WALL

Democrats complained about the wall being build. If they had continued with the wall maybe the drugs, guns and illegal crossing would not be happening. Every country needs a border. Trump tries to protect America. You may not like the man, appreciate what he tried to do with the wall.

BLACKBURN’S SHADOW

So, Marsha Blackburns shadow Bill Hagerty is all up tight because the response time for relief for the poor folks in Eastern Tennessee wasn’t quick enough to please him. While my heart goes out to all of the fine folks affected by the hurricane Helene in all the states that are suffering devastating losses there is only so many people available to supply the urgent help needed. Yes, if it were me that was in need of help right now I guess I would be wringing my hands and wondering why do I have to wait so long for help. While I don’t have full confidence in many of the things our government is supposed to be doing for us, I do realize that

they (the government) are doing the best they can with what they have. But, then and again I am nor running for a political office in the opposing party. Most of the republican politicians are just playing the blame game to make the party in office right now look like they aren’t doing enough to fix all the problems the past two hurricanes have dealt GA.FL.NC.SC.TN. Let’s hope Mother Nature has given us enough hell this year and she just supplies us with a more calm winter. A BIG hurrah goes out to all the volunteers in TN. who have given up there time to help those who really need it. About the only thing Hagerty said in the Tuesday October 15 Tennessean article that was not putting the blame on the Democrats in office now is “THAT’S AN EXAMPLE OF TENNESSEE VOLUNTEERISM.” Thanks for that Bill, what kind of volunteering did you do besides stand there and try to make yourself look like you really care?

Tunes on the Terrace for Mercy Chefs

Judith and Richard Bracken hosted Tunes on the Terrace to benefit Mercy Chefs, a non-profit disaster and humanitarian food relief organization.

The event was held on the expansive terrace at the Bracken home and the weather was perfect. Gorgeous white hydrangeas, red roses and white pumpkins decorated the dining tables and additional floral displays were everywhere, along with white lights which were strung from the trees.

Mercy Chefs demonstrated their incredible cooking skills with the delicious barbecue dinner they served the guests, which included pulled pork, beef brisket, potato salad, slaw, and all kinds of delicious desserts.

Everyone enjoyed music by Linda Davis, Lang Scott, Rory and Indiana Feek, and many other talented performers.

Mercy Chefs provides professionally prepared, restaurant-quality meals and clean water to victims, volunteers and first responders in natural disasters and emergencies, and they partner with existing like-minded organizations to further their mission by providing food service in underserved communities across the country and around the globe.

During the event, a screen was set up so everyone could see a live feed from Asheville, North Carolina featuring Mercy Chefs Co-founder Ann LeBlanc, who was on the ground serving meals to those who needed them. On deployment, the professional chefs prepare high-quality, hot meals on a mass scale of up to 20,000 meals a day, if needed.

Ann LeBlanc’s husband and co-founder, Gary LeBlanc, attended the fundraiser and spoke with his wife as she explained what was happening in Asheville and how Mercy Chefs was helping.

Mercy Chefs runs a kitchen in Nashville,

as well as in other states. This summer they provided lunches to local children who normally rely on meals at school for nutritious food.

The LeBlancs started Mercy Chefs in 2006 during the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. The devastation hit close to their home and while volunteering, Gary LeBlanc saw the lackluster food that was being served to people who had just lost everything. After 35 years in the hotel restaurant business, he used his skills to carry out the mission of Mercy Chefs to feed comfort food to insecure populations across the nation.

Since Mercy Chefs began, they have fed more than 10 million people, and they are currently helping in Florida after Hurricane Milton, in addition to continuing to serve in North Carolina and Tennessee. The team is experienced in bringing relief following hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, earthquakes, wildfires, extreme winter weather, and emergencies. For more information, visit mercychefs.com or call 800-892-0445.
