Historic Sexton store

The Jack and Amy Sexton home and store – the house is still standing – is important to Union County history for many reasons. First, the country stores were not only important for local people, most of whom did not have cars until about the end of World War II, but the stores, schools and churches were the community centers of bygone days.

Pick your chick

Once again, more than 60 0 new residents have come to Union County. As in years past, they are cute and cuddly and mostly yellow. The 3-day-old chicks were shipped to the Maynardville post office and picked up by April Adams, the newest employee at the Union County Extension Office. The chicks were held at the office in boxes under heat lamps in wait for 4-H’ers to come and take them to their new homes.

By Cindy Taylor The Union County Board of Education passed a so-called balanced preliminary budget for 2012-2013 during a special called meeting April 2. Temporary Director of Schools Jimmy Carter said that there were many lines in the budget that he had not reviewed due to lack of time, and he said they may increase. Carter presented a budget similar to the 2011-2012 finances with some increases in expenditures but no projected increases for salaries at Central Office. “We didn’t make a lot of changes from last year,” said Carter. “We’re hoping to maintain what we had this year. The

issue is we don’t necessarily have the revenue we had last year.” The school budget will be minus $420,000 of Federal JobEd money, all of which is attached to 10 teacher positions. Carter said that the budget represents a 42cent increase in needed revenue. He said the school board needs a commitment of financial help from County Commission before June 15. That is the date the school system is required to notify employees if their positions will be reinstated. According to Carter, the line item for transportation will be put back to where it was in the 2011-2012 budget with no cuts, but there will be an increase needed for fuel. Health insurance for teachers was kept at the

2011-2012 level, which allows for the system to cover teacher insurance costs as it did that fiscal year. Twelve-month employees whose salaries were cut back to 11 months were also reinstated. A number of teachers are expected to retire, and incoming teachers will most likely be paid at a lesser rate than those who are retiring, which would decrease the line item for teacher salaries. Carter presented a proposed $75,000 increase in the maintenance budget for electrical and natural gas to total $150,000, but the board voted to make that line item equal $200,000 to prepare for an anticipated rise in maintenance costs. “Due to the amount of time

we had, we wanted to be sure that the biggest part of this budget was taken care of,” said Carter. “County Commission understands that this is a work in progress and is very preliminary. There are line items that will need to be made up from somewhere, but this is the best we could do with the time we had.” The board chose not to add a line item to pay for upcoming litigation with suspended Director of Schools Wayne Goforth or for payments still being sought by Michael Brady Inc. for the new Paulette School. The board planned to present the budget as written to the Union County Commission’s Budget and Finance Committee on April 3.

Business of the week Union County Senior Center

By Cindy Taylor Playing bingo, shooting pool, a pause for lunch, Scrabble and card games. Sound like a party? It’s a typical weekday at the Union County Senior Center. Melanie Dykes is nearing her one-year anniversary as director of the center, and she and her staff are working daily to bring in even more fun and enriching activities for seniors. “We have a great attitude among employees and

seniors that makes this a great place to work and to visit,” said Dykes. About 20 seniors show up each day as soon as the doors open and spend most of their time catching up with friends and enjoying the many activities offered by the center. The center has yearly fundraisers and raised $1,000 with a chili supper last fall. The money stays in the center and is used to provide activities for the seniors.

The center offers health and nutrition programs as well as monthly health screenings, an exercise room, a computer room and recently added instructional line dancing. This has more than met the state re-

quirements for physical fitness activities at the center. “We are the Rockin’ Seniors,” said Dykes of those who have joined in the line dancing. “We are also the first stop for those seeking help regarding insurance

Chiropractic at the big game Chiropractic Outlook By Dr. Darrell Johnson, DC When the New York Giants and the New England Patriots took the field in February for Super Bowl XLVI, they brought along all the personnel that made their seasons so successful, including their chiropractors. The game of football obviously involves repeated jarring collisions that would leave most of us hurting for weeks. Even finely conditioned professional athletes like the Giants and the Patriots need help in getting themselves back together over the course of a grueling 16-game National Football League regular season. So for the Patriots and Giants respectively, Dr. Michael Miller and Dr. Robert DeStefano are each vital members of a complete support staff that includes physicians, trainers and physical therapists, among others. DeStefano has been with the Giants since 2002 and in February experienced his second Super Bowl win. Miller has been with the Patriots since 1982 and has been part of three Super Bowl victories. And to emphasize the point, Jerry Rice, an NFL Hall of Famer, recently committed to another threeyear stint as spokesman for The Foundation for Chiropractic Progress, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to increasing public awareness about the benefits of chiropractic care. If chiropractic attention can help the games of professional athletes, think what it might be able to do for you.

Cleaning up the lake By Cindy Taylor Hundreds of volunteers spent March 31 joining in the Norris Lake and Tennessee River Rescue. More than 100 volunteers participated in Union County alone.

Boy Scout Troop 401 loads the ferry heading out to Rabbit Island. Pictured are Linda and Johnny Myers, Austin Hickman, Paul Mallicoat, Tyler Warwick, Tommy Warwick, Jerry Myers, Kelsey Post, Jammy Allen, Laura and Peter Bojarski, Dustin Letner, Orrin Warwick, Sebastian Price, John Branum and Caleb Branum.

Cindy Taylor

Union and Campbell County Chambers of Commerce, Anderson County Tourism, TVA, AmeriCorps and Big Ridge State Park organized the event and teamed up with Ijams Nature Center to pull off what was probably the largest single effort to clean up Tennessee waterways in local history. Other sponsors were Hickory Star Marina, Beach Island Resort, Hickory Point Homeowners Association, UT Extension and 4-H, Boy Scout Troops 401 and 506, Sunset Bay Property Owners, Keep Union County Beautiful, Norris Shores Property Owners, Hickory Point Homeowners Association, Helms Ferry operator Johnny Ray and Highlands Homeowners Association. “This has been three years in the making,” said Union County Chamber president Julie Graham. “Counties started working together, looking at regulations along the lake, trying to improve the situation. Our long-term goal is to find a way to keep this trash from happening, and we plan to make this type of cleanup an annual event.” Hickory Star and Beach Island marinas provided pontoons and barges to ferry volunteers and garbage. Union County Solid Waste played a large part in the cleanup as well and provided the dumpsters. Groups collected trash along Norris Lake at the water’s edge and the islands. Found items included tires, furniture, car parts, propane tanks, a fiberglass canoe, a toilet and a skateboard. “This was the most fun I’ve ever had while working my behind off,” said AmeriCorps volunteer Neva Kitts. Boy Scout Troop 401 members were ferried out to Rabbit Island where their search for trash led them to the remains of a couple of homesteads and a tombstone dating back to the 1800s. Laura and Peter Bojarski are three-year residents of Hickory Pointe and came out to help clean up their community. Kelsey Post and her mom, Jammy Allen, volunteer in the community as often as possible and gave their services for this event. “We volunteer at the Humane Society and pick up trash along the roads whenever we can,” said Allen. Lunch was provided by Maynardville Food City and the Union County Chamber and was prepared and served by Union County Senior Center members.

Plainview jumps in

The city of Plainview scheduled their own cleanup for March 31, pulling in residents and officials to help with the task. More than 20 people gathered to pick up trash along the roadway, including Plainview Mayor Gary Chandler, Plainview Aldermen Josh Collins and Stacey Sexton, Union County Property Assessor Donna Jones, and Union County Trustee Gina Buckner. City employee Paris McBee coordinated the effort, and the group spent the morning to early afternoon cleaning up garbage along Tazewell Pike from one end at the county line to the other. A hearty breakfast was prepared and served by Betty Satterfield, Joyce Meltabarger and Kay Jones to get the crew fired up and on their way. Contact Cindy Taylor at brentcindyt@ gmail.com

Pinhook’s historic Sexton home and store TALES OF UNION COUNTY | Bonnie Peters

T

he Jack and Amy Sexton home and store – the house is still standing – is important to Union County history for many reasons. First, the country stores were not only important for local people, most of whom did not have cars until about the end of World War II, but the stores, schools and churches were the community centers of bygone days. Many families simply had to do without items such as sugar, salt and coffee as well as kerosene for their lamps until they could walk or go by horseback or horse and buggy to the local general store. In addition to supplying their cupboards, they learned the latest news – who was sick, who was better or well, who had died, who had a new baby and who

was in trouble with the law. The stores, schools and churches were the social centers of that day. The Sexton store and home, believed to have been built around 1880, served as the voting place for the Pinhook community. Soon after the ratification of Women’s Suffrage Amendment in August 1920, Bessie Myers Buckner, daughter of Joel S. Myers, also a Pinhoook store owner, was the first woman voter in the Pinhook community. I’m sure some of you are wondering how this community got the name Pinhook. A pinhook is a device used for mooring the boats coming in from the Clinch River to dock there, so someone gave their community that name. As far as we know, the store was first operated by

Pick your chick By Cindy Taylor Once again, more than 60 0 new residents have come to Union County. As in years past, they are cute and cuddly and mostly yellow. The 3-day-old chicks were shipped to the Maynardville post office and picked up by April Adams, the newest employee at the Union County Extension Office. The chicks were held at the office in boxes under heat lamps in wait for 4-H’ers to come and take them to their new homes. The chicks are Golden Comets and came from Murray McMurray Hatcheries. Students deposited $25 to receive 15 chicks or $40 to receive 25 chicks. Deposits will be returned when the 4-H’ers bring the chicks back to the show and sale. Kelsey Rivers and Martin Dickey, last year’s Grand Champions, will serve as mentors to the

youngest chick chain participants. Tyler Mink, a longtime chick chain participant, will also mentor. Landscaper and nursery owner Allen Beeler is a former 4-H’er and big supporter of the chick chain project. He will also serve

‘Union County’s Got Talent’ rocks!

Movie exposes bullying problem

By Cindy Taylor

By Cindy Taylor

Once again, contestants in Union County’s Got Talent proved their star quality. The event, held March 31, is in its second year. Organizers Jamie Hackney and Pat Morgan couldn’t be more pleased with how the contest is being received. “Jamie put so much work into this event, and I really enjoyed pulling it together with him,” said Morgan. “The kids love it as well.” More than 153 supporters attended the event and 23 contestants performed vocals and instrumentals. This year’s event had two winners. One was selected by money collected and one by audience applause using a computerized applause meter. There were also door prize winners and a silent auction. More than $1,700 was raised with all proceeds going to the Union County High School Band. That was an increase from last year of more than $200. Alanna Phillips won the money jar contest, collecting $185 for her performance. Audience applause winner was Aaron Bragg. Hannah Perry was an overall favorite and won an honorable mention. Other participants were Lucas Nicely, Heidi Holton, Bobby Mink, Elijah Widman, Jerry Myers, Julie West, Valerie Crist, Eugene Brantley, Hope Austin, Hunter Collins, Eddie Bragg, Joe Atkins, Makayla Johnson, Naomi

Some Horace Maynard Middle School students left the auditorium in tears after watching the trailer and excerpts from “The Fat Boy Chronicles” shown March 30. Co-authors Diane Lang and Michael Buchanan began writing together in the summer of 2000. Their latest novel, “The Fat Boy Chronicles,” is based on the true story of an overweight 9th grader struggling to find his way in a thin-obsessed society and the bullying he endured from middle school students. During the assembly, Buchanan spoke about bullying and how students can stop it. “Having to live with bullies is not the way school should be,” said Buchanan. “We’re all flawed in some way, and we all have something that sits on our soul that we feel awkward about. Words or the lack thereof are very powerful.” Three 8th graders who have been bullied or have friends who have been bullied were willing to speak out about the subject. “Watching what that kid went through sucked,” said Jordin Boggs. “I can relate because I have been bullied. Kids will pick on you for stupid stuff like feet that are too big, or being too thin or too fat.” “This film helped me see things a bit differently,” said Bobby Mink. “I thought I got picked on but it wasn’t near as bad as what that kid went through.”

Winner of audience applause was Aaron Bragg.

Winner for most money placed in the money jars was Alanna Phillips. Collins, Allison Brown, Amanda Sutton, Samantha Keck, Mark Terrones, Courtney Deathrage and Daniel Cooke. Special presentations included an instrumental duet, a balloon ensemble by band members and a very special duet by band director Jamie Hackney with master of ceremonies Scott Turner.

“I was bullied in the past,” said Trenton Washam. “Seeing this film really helped me.” The film helped these three realize that they could stand up for other students, and all agreed that bullying needs to be stopped. The three think that bullies are probably created by family members or other students who pick

on them and stated that no student appears to be exempt. All said they are stronger because they endured the bullying. Buchanan said many students do not survive bullying, as evidenced in the suicide rate among middle school students. The movie was shown in its entirety at the high school that evening.
