Oakes Farm festival in 17th year By Shannon Carey

School board The Union County Board of Education will have a special called meeting at 6 p.m. Thursday, June 30, at the Union County High School auditorium to vote on budget amendments and the final 2016-17 budget.

There was already a crowd when they opened the gates for the 17th Oakes Daylily Festival in Corryton June 24. Bluegrass music drifted in the summer air under beautiful blue skies as the Oakes family welcomed all comers to their farm. Everyone left with a full belly, a smile and a free daylily plant. Ken Oakes, co-owner of Corryton’s Oakes Daylilies with his father, Stewart, said the festival got its start in 2000. The daylily business,

he said, is a hobby that got out of hand for his father and grandfather. They used to just keep the garden open and go dig up plants for people who wanted them. But as the hobby grew into a business, demand also grew. The festival lets the Oakes family keep up the tradition of hospitality and sharing these lovely flowers. “We’re glad to have folks come and see what we’ve got,� Ken said. “We love the flowers, and we’re happy to share them.� Folks come from all over for the festival. In a typical year, around 30 states will be repre-

sented, said Ken. He said one couple who visited from Arizona loved the Corryton scenery so much they bought a house just up the road. “They get to see our neck of the woods,� he said. Ken thanked everyone who worked on the festival this year. “We’ve got a great group of people, friends and family from over the years that help run the festival,� he said. “And hopefully they’ll have some fun.� Info: www.oakesdaylilies.com

Richeson challenges BOE on diversity By Sandra Clark Union County High School won’t have social studies teacher Chris Richeson any more after his contract was not renewed at the end of the school year. And nobody will say why. With the threat of a lawsuit, the school board and Director of Schools Dr. Jimmy Carter sat mute while Richeson made his case. It was uncomfortable for everyone in the room. Three students also spoke in support of Richeson, accompanied by 100 or so kids, adults and folks from Knoxville and even Middle Tennessee. Brad Griffey, acting chair, introduced Richeson with a statement: “While we do not publicly discuss the reasons for non-renewal of a teacher, it is important that you know that Mr. Richeson’s non-renewal had nothing to do with the fact that he was the faculty sponsor of the school’s Gay Straight Alliance Club. ‌ (It) is a recognized club at the school, and it will continue next year with a new sponsor.â€? Griffey said the board had

been advised by legal counsel that numerous court cases have affirmed such clubs can form at schools. The club’s continued existence at UCHS is not up for debate, Griffey said. “The club will continue to exist and be a recognized club.� Carter said afterwards that he

expects no problem in finding a faculty sponsor. In his remarks, Richeson referenced the recent mass killings in a gay-identified Florida nightclub. “After Orlando, all of us are coming to realize not everyone is safe.� Richeson, who has a law de-

gree and entered teaching as a second career, completed three years at UCHS. In his first year, he organized a mock trial program. In his second and third years he brought students to school board meetings to observe and bring up items of interest. Their efforts brought changes to the school lunch program. In his third year, he became sponsor of the Gay Straight Alliance Club. “It has been a very difficult year for me,� he said. “When I received my non-renewal notice I was shocked (after three years of high evaluations by two principals).� Richeson said he fears for each student who joined the club, some courageously “outing� themselves as being gay. “Their shield is gone.� ■Board members David Coppock and Marty Gibbs missed the meeting. ■The BOE will hold a called meeting at 6 p.m. Thursday, June 30, to adopt the final budget for the upcoming school year. Carter said the budget will include a raise for teachers, but the final percentage is unknown.

Exacting standards, kind ways mark the Regas style By Kelly Norrell Bill Regas, owner of Knoxville’s iconic Regas Restaurant until it closed in 2010, heard a great story recently. David Gilbert, a former Regas baker, found a wallet in his house with a tag attached. It said, “Merry Christmas from the Regas Family.� It still had $5 tucked inside. Gilbert’s pleasure and subsequent call to Regas somehow capture the driving force behind what was one of Tennessee’s longest running and most awardwinning restaurants – a caring spirit welded to a tough work ethic. “We’ve always worked hard to keep the team together,� said Regas. Cherokee Country Club executive chef David Pinckney, who worked for years as an across-town colleague of Regas, put it another way. “When I was at the Orangery (as executive chef), Regas was the benchmark restaurant in Knoxville, and Bill Regas was a sort of mentor to me. Now I see him two or three times a week at Cherokee, where he is a member, and he speaks every single time. He is a true gentleman.�

rants, are a few Regas Restaurant alumni who soared. The Regas Restaurant story began in 1919, when Greek immigrant brothers George and Frank Regas (later joined by brother Harry) opened a 24-hour, 7 day a week diner on Gay Street near Magnolia. Capitalizing on the crush of travelers from the nearby train depot, they began as Regas Brothers CafĂŠ with an 18-stool counter, six booths and six tables seating four. Regas said family help and a powerful work ethic were key. The brothers worked rotating shifts, one taking nights and the other serving breakfast, lunch and dinner during the day. They learned from successful people. “My Dad always stayed active in the National Restaurant Association, traveling to meetings and learning about new dishes, methods and technology. He always had the association sign in the window.â€? The founding brothers had about 8th grade educations. As the business grew, family and employees learned at what they called the Regas School of Restaurateuring. Grady Regas (for whom the Grady’s Res-

taurants were named), his cousin Chris Paris, and his aunt Kiki Liakonis all have memories of hard work and long hours, beginning with dish washing. The business evolved under second and third generation family. Employees like Hazel Schmid, who greeted customers for 54 years, were an institution. “We had a lot of regulars come in every day. I knew where they liked to sit and who they liked to sit with,� she said. Customers like Will Pugh loved it all – prime rib, lobster tails and red velvet cake as well as specialties like blueberry muffins and ice cream sundaes. “Everything was great,� he said. Regas said he thinks there will always be a place for “special� restaurants – for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, graduations, visits from out of town guests. But he thinks the number will get smaller. “The restaurant business is tough unless you have a lot of depth. A chef is just one person, and he’s trying to prepare the meal,� said Regas. “You can be a good cook, a good front man with a great personality. But if you don’t have a good team, you’ll wear yourself out.�

Back-friendly practices around the house Chiropractic Outlook By Dr. Darrell Johnson, DC You don’t have to be in some dramatically physical occupation like professional athlete or ironworker for your back to be at risk for injury. Ironing, vacuuming, tending to a child, all these seemingly mundane household activities can put you at risk for back strain. Here are a couple of tips to keep in mind as you go about the potentially perilous practice of running your home: ■When you’re washing dishes, open the cupboard under the sink and put one foot in the cabinet to take some pressure off your back. ■Do something similar when ironing. Put a stool at your feet so you can periodically shift your weight and, once again, take some pressure off your back.

■When using a vacuum cleaner, adopt a fencer’s stance and shift your weight back and forth between the feet. ■When talking on the phone, whether it’s your cell or a land line, don’t pinch the phone itself or the handset between your ear and shoulder. This is an unnatural position for the joints of the neck and upper back. Either use a speaker phone or stop what you’re doing and hold the phone comfortably. ■When picking up a baby or toddler, bend at the knees, not at the waist, and let your legs, not your back, do the lifting. Talk with a chiropractor about other good practices around the house. Presented as a community service by Union County Chiropractic; 110 Skyline Drive, Maynardville, Tenn. 992-7000.

All-Americans to be If the football Volunteers live up to lofty expectations, history says three will be honored as all-Americans. Because of exceptional wisdom and insight, you are invited to pick ’em.

Marvin West

Will it be Jalen Hurd, star running back? His field is crowded. Cam Sutton is a goodenough corner to persuade opponents to go the other way. Do you choose Jalen Reeves-Maybin, run-andhit linebacker? How about quarterback Joshua Dobbs, epitome of the student-athlete? You could certainly pick Derek Barnett, destroyer at defensive end. Kick returner Evan Ber-

ry could do it again. Center Coleman Thomas has a chance. And punter Trevor Daniel. Maybe somebody else pops out of the crowd. Write-ins are welcome. Please accept lightweight guidance. The best player on the team might be a youngster, but youth is handicapped in the bid for post-season honors unless accompanied by spectacular statistics. Previous build-up, name recognition, is often decisive. Team success is relevant. Traditional winners have an advantage. Keep in mind that half of the official selectors don’t know as much as you do, but they look at lineups and conclude somebody must be good if Alabama, Ohio State, Florida State and Clemson prevail season after season. After you have finished our all-America exercise, tell me who projects as the most valuable Volunteer. Is anybody indispensable? Five or six quarterbacks will go ahead of Dobbs in

the next NFL roll call, but Joshua makes the Vols go. He is an exceptional leader (smarts, personality, guardian of the football). He is a genuine dual threat (671 rushing yards and 11 touchdowns, 2,291 passing and 15 TDs). He is not a bombsaway aerialist. He may or may not be the winning edge. He had two scoring passes in the four losses last season. Hurd, 6-4, 241 and 23 miles an hour on a treadmill, is not your ordinary big running back. Butch Jones has declared him a Heisman candidate. Linebackers concede that Jalen causes headaches. Safeties say he is faster than he appears. Hurd was fourth in SEC rushing last season with 1,288 yards along with 12 touchdowns. He is a willing blocker and better than average receiver. He is within range (892) of Tennessee’s career rushing record but there is only one football and Alvin Kamara and Dobbs will have

Ralphie, the young, ordinary Ronnie Mincey had a secret life. I had to keep it secret, for most of the other kids and adults I knew would have thought me insane. I’ll give you a brief example. I was fascinated with preachers when I was a youngster. I was particularly impressed with the first baptism I witnessed. The spirit of imagination came upon me, and the call was on me to baptize something. It just so happened that my mother had hanging on the living room wall in its original box a doll in a white dress. With the old springhouse as baptistry and the monstrous overhanging oak

tree as witness, I baptized that little “sister.� I had to remove her dress, because if it got wet my temporary “doll-napping� would be discovered and an explanation required. Following administration of the sacred ordinance, I dried, dressed and returned the immersed one to her place of abode. And then a miracle occurred! My mother’s doll, after so many dry years, urinated! My mother was as impressed with this wonder as those of other religions would have been with stigmata. I could not let my mother be deceived into thinking this some kind of divine revelation from oth-

erworldly realms, so I admitted that I had baptized the doll and that she obviously had absorbed some spring water that was now leaking from her plastic torso. I thought Mother might be upset, but she found it quite amusing. She at various times for the remainder of her life would relate this story. So once again is scripture proven true: “For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known� (Luke 12:2, KJV) and “. . . be sure your sin will find you out� (Numbers 32:23, KJV). More confessions to follow.

it a fair share. Sutton is good, very good. He has been the Vols’ best corner for three years. Certain sportswriters tell him he is great. SEC coaches and pro scouts are less comforting. Coaches selected half a hundred 2015 all-SEC stars and did not mention Cameron. NFL provided mixed reviews. That is why he is here instead of there. Sutton led America with 18.7 yards per punt return. His 467 are a school career record. Reeves-Maybin, natural leader, is critical to the UT defense. He led with 105 tackles, 14 for losses. He fig-

ures to find more in the Bob Shoop blitz package. Cross your fingers on whether the repaired shoulder is 100 percent strong. Barnett is an intimidating pass rusher and strong enough at 6-3 and 257 to hold his own against running attacks. He tied for fourth in the SEC with 10 sacks and has 20 in his career. That is in the general direction of Reggie White, school recordholder with 32. Evan Berry was the nation’s top kickoff returner in 2015 (38.3 average, three TDs, 804 yards, fourthmost in school history). Foes paid great compli-

ments. They kicked away from him. Evan received more recognition than all other Vols combined: First-team allAmerica by Walter Camp, Sporting News and Sports Illustrated; second-team by Football Writers of America, CBS and Fox. He was SEC special teams player of the year. Berry didn’t play all that much on defense but he may play more. Last we saw, he was running toward the ocean with a Northwestern pass he pilfered in the bowl game. Marvin West awaits your input. His address is westwest6@netzero.com

Myrel Dykes enjoys her birthday party

Myrel parties early for 90th birthday

Myrel Peters Dykes arrived at Sharps Chapel, Tenn., on June 19, 1927, the daughter of Margaret Fields and James Hudson Peters. Myrel grew up on a farm and told me she even mowed hay with a mowing machine and horses. She still cooks and cans. She’s a great cook, and she’s one of my sources of Union County history – particularly about Sharps Chapel. Myrel married

Bonnie Peters

Aylor Dykes, and they are the parents of Melba Dykes Bennett and Randy Dykes. Grandchildren are Keith and Brandon Dykes and Jenny Mullins. Daughter Melba orga-

nized and hosted a celebration at the Sharps Chapel Senior Center to commemorate Myrel’s 90th birthday. About 50 people attended the party on June 12. Myrel’s secret for looking young and taking care of herself is a breakfast of 12cup cereal sprinkled with banana slices and blueberries and topped off with a big cup of coffee. To page 9

Beaver Dam Baptist helps in big and little ways By Carol Z. Shane Churches are known for their big gestures: coat drives, food pantries, large-scale aid in all forms. “It’s all good,� as the saying goes. But Beaver Dam Baptist Church member Mark Smith and his pals Dan Edwards and Craig Wagoner have found a sort of “niche ministry.� FelMark Smith low congregants who have leaky faucets, broken-down washers or any number of other household problems can call on BDBC’s “Handyman Ministry.� “Everybody’s got a talent. I was mechanically inclined since I was a kid,� Smith says. His mechanical skills were furthered when he served as a jet mechanic in the Air Force in Southeast Asia. His first venture in service to his church was in car care for single mothers or others who needed automotive help. “It did good for 12 or 15 years,� he says. “We did as many as 17 oil changes per Saturday.� But people began to take advantage of it. Smith soon found himself inundated with service requests from all over town, not just from his church community. He moved on to handyman servic-

es, but stresses that his group’s work is only for those who belong to the church family. He’s dismayed that modern-day people give up so easily on broken appliances. “People just don’t try. I figure somebody put it together – at some point I can take it apart and figure out how it works.� Smith keeps a supply of used, rehabbed refrigerators, washers, dryers and stoves at his home for church members who need them. “People at the church, they upgrade their kitchen and they give me the old appliances. People call all the time. My wife wants to kill me.� The reason behind his service, Smith says, is that when he retired from his career at the post office, “I

was going to spend my time for the Lord. Hey, there’s no way I could pay God back all I owed him. The only thing we can do is show God’s love to other people.� Smith, Edwards and Wagoner don’t lack for calls. “We’re busy three or four times a week.� Smith suffered some lean times of his own. “I remember when our two kids were little, and our washer went out and I had to go down to the credit union and get some money on my truck. I know how hard it is.� Smith says that BDBC also has a “chainsaw ministry� for aid in cleaning up after tornadoes, and a “Jeans for Teens� ministry, among many others. “We just like to help people.�

The woman who lost a coin “Or what woman having 10 silver coins, if she loses one, does not light a lamp, sweep the house, and search carefully until she finds it? When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin that I had lost.’� (Luke 15:8-9 NRSV)

Every woman on the planet can identify with the woman in Jesus’ parable. We have all lost an earring, a recipe or a favorite book. I recently took off a favorite bracelet that Lewis had given me, and put it in a safe place. Famous last words, right? This happened at Lake Junaluska, at Annual Conference, and I had lots of other things on my mind. Later, when I started looking for it, I was fearful that somehow or other I had dropped it at the lake, and although the kind people there put it on their “lost items� list, along with my contact information, I didn’t hold much hope. I continued searching, looking over and over in the same places, expecting different results. (A foolish tactic, I know, but at least I was doing something.) Then one morning I decided to go through the pockets in my shirts. Eureka! There it was, patiently awaiting its recovery. It is on my wrist now, as I write. In addition to learning a lesson in hope and patience, I learned something about Jesus. It hadn’t occurred to me to think about this young rabbi using this particular illustration to make a point with his listeners. I realized that Jesus knew quite well how women’s hearts and minds work. I wonder if his mother ever lost something in their Nazareth home, and her young son watched (or helped) her search for it!

Cas Walker revisited: UT historians collecting memories We haven’t heard the last of the Old Coon Hunter. The University of Tennessee History Department is working on the Cas Walker Stories Project, headed by department head Ernest Freeberg and third-year doctoral research assistant Joshua Hodge. The idea for the project, which will eventually produce archival material, a book and a digital humanities (online) component, came about in an unorthodox fashion, and has everything to do with Freeberg’s North Knoxville address. He lives on Gaston Avenue, in the longtime home of Cas Walker, who lived there for decades and died in a hospital bed set up in what is now Freeberg’s living room. Being an out-of-towner, Freeberg, whose vitae includes acclaimed biogra-

Betty Bean phies of Eugene Debs and Thomas Edison, had no idea what he was getting into when he took possession of the home of a (formerly) living legend, but soon discovered that the long shadow of Cas Walker had survived his death in 1998. Freeberg had no choice but to get interested. Hodge, a native Alabamian whose dissertation topic is something that is not Cas Walker, is spending his summer collecting recollections of Walker and is working from a list of Walker friends, acquaintances, allies and maybe even an enemy or two. He started in May, and hopes to finish the inter-

views this summer. “ W h a t we plan to do over the next three or four months is collect as many of these interviews as we can,� Hodge said. “Eventually, we’ll organize it Cas Walker into archival materials for the East Tennessee Historical Society. We’ll also take these interviews and try to splice different versions of the same stories together – like Coca Cola having 20 different people singing different versions of the same song during the Super Bowl.� For example, he’s heard a bunch of versions of the time Walker caused traffic jams

on Chapman Highway by burying alive a man named Digger O’Dell in his South K noxv ille store’s parking lot. The digital humanities piece will become an ongoing website. The book, which will be published by the University of Tennessee Press, will take longer. Hodge and Freeberg hope to finish in a year. Hodge is willing to talk to people who didn’t know Walker, too, if they have a good story to share. Anyone with anecdotes that need telling can reach him at jhodge24@vols.utk.edu or 205-960-9115

Seven Islands manager Justine Cucchiara is presented with an award for “Excellence in Resource Management� by state park officials. Pictured are Tennessee State Parks director of operations Mike Robertson, TDEC commissioner Robert Martineau, Cucchiara, TDEC deputy commissioner Brock Hill and TSP East Tennessee regional manager Robin Peeler Wooten. Photo submitted One of the many native grasses growing in the park

By Cindy Taylor The scene before you is a vast expanse with a mix of wildflower meadows and native grasses surrounded by woodland hills. On a spring day the sky is so blue it can make your eyes hurt. The Great Smoky Mountains and the Chilhowee mountain range loom in the background. Turn a corner and the French Broad River flows into view. Red-winged blackbirds and goldfinches fly overhead, diving occasionally for food. Meanwhile, the trilling song of a meadowlark or bobwhite quail lulls you to a state of bliss possible only in East Tennessee. This is a day at Seven Is-

lands State Birding Park. Just a short drive east of Knoxville off I40, the park is one of the newest state parks. Prior to 2014, the area was managed by Legacy Parks Foundation as Seven Islands Wildlife Refuge. More than eight miles of scenic, mowed paths and a paved greenway wind through the park’s 425 acres. Each trail lends itself to a varied type of habitat ranging from native grasslands and riparian zones to woodlands. There is also river access for boats at two locations. Britt Farrar is a ranger at the park. “Seven Islands was an easy addition for

the state that didn’t require the overhead that would normally take place,� said Farrar. “The original restrictions were kept in place for land use development when the conservation easement was transferred.� The park is a bird watchers paradise. Farrar says more than 190 species have been spotted to date. “The number is constantly changing, almost daily, depending on the time of year and during migration,� he said. “An additional 10 have been added to the list just since I began working here two years ago.� Some of the rarer species seen in the

park are the barn owl, lark sparrow, claycolored sparrow, bobolink, golden-winged warbler, peregrine falcon, saw-whet owl and sand hill crane. Farrar says the workload is heavy with a lot to get done and only a few to do it. But he loves his job. “It is a blessing to get to work in such a unique place,� he said. “The peaceful setting, the quiet and seclusion and the abundant wildlife remind me daily of why I love working here.� One visit will not be nearly enough. Seven Islands State Birding Park entrance is at 2809 Kelly Lane. Info: 407-8335.

SEEK program: Creating a working resumĂŠ “Don’t be afraid to sell yourselfâ€? - Leanne Friebel By Ruth White Writing a resumĂŠ can be an intimidating task for people who have worked many years, not to mention students coming out of high school. What is important on a resumĂŠ? Is there a specific style that is used to make one? What if I haven’t had a job in the past? Leanne Friebel, workbased learning coordinator in Union County, walked students through the steps of creating the best possible resumĂŠ. “Remember, you

are speaking on your own behalf, don’t be afraid to sell yourself,â€? she said. Important elements of a resumĂŠ include work experience and references. What does a student do if he/she hasn’t had a job or has limited experience? Friebel encouraged them to list any type of experience. “Did you babysit over the summer? Did you mow lawns? Do you watch children in child care at church or work in Bible School? That’s experience. Put that on your resumĂŠ.â€?

She also asked them to think about qualities they may possess. “Are you good with numbers? Are you organized? Do you enjoy working with your hands?â€? References are important on the resumĂŠ, because people are listed who know your character and know how you interact with others. Friebel suggested using individuals you have known for several years like a teacher, family friend or someone from church. “Don’t put down a boyfriend or girlfriend as a reference because if you break up or get in a fight, they may not speak highly of you

to an employer.â€? Make sure the contact information on a reference is correct and always make sure that it is okay to use a person as your reference. “You never want a reference called by a prospective employer to be caught off guard,â€? she said. Even the simplest resumĂŠ should speak well of someone’s ability and willingness to learn on the job and should be updated as new skills are learned and the employee gains experience in the field. For assistance in creating a resumĂŠ, visit the website Jobs4Tn.gov and create an account to begin accessing helpful job tools.

Student Zachary Kitts creates an account on the Jobs4TN.gov website with Tom Miklusicak inside the career center on wheels. The site provides assistance to individuals seeking employment and guidance with resumĂŠs and job applications. Photo by R. White

90th birthday

From page 4

Some years ago, Myrel and Aylor moved to Halls to be nearer to family and their doctors, but Myrel keeps in touch with family and friends near her home place in the Chapel. Special guests at Myrel’s party were her nephew Gordon and his wife Linda Dykes, who “came to see Myrel for her 90th birthday.� You see, both Gordon and Linda are blind, but they don’t let that dampen their spirits. During some of my TVA years, Gordon ran what we called the “blind stand� in the Liberty Building in downtown Knoxville. At times I thought Gordon could see more without sight than most of us could see with it! Gordon was always fun-loving, happy-go-lucky, never late for work and he never complained about anything dealt him. He and Myrel both had great fun at her party.

ange County on Oct. 12, 1791, to Obed Green. Their daughter Catherine married John Holmes on Oct. 17, 1791, and it is believed that shortly after her marriage the Gibbs family moved to East Tennessee and settled in what is now Knox County. According to Tennessee records, Nicholas bought 450 acres in Hawkins County on March 6, 1792, for 200 pounds “including Beaver Dam Fork on Beaver Creek.â€? This section of Hawkins County became Knox County on June 11, 1792, when Gov. William Blount issued an ordinance redefining the lines of Greene and Hawkins counties and establishing Knox and Jefferson counties. On July 18, 1792, [Goodspeed’s History of Tennessee, p. 810], the first court in Knox County was held by James White and others. On April 25, 1796, the first county court was begun and Nicholas Gibbs became a justice of the peace, commissioned by the governor. Note: This story picks up where we On April 25, 1796, Nicholas Gibbs left off last week ‌ was given a grant of 100 acres on BeaNicholas sold his property in Or- ver Dam Creek for “services in the

Continental Line� [Land Grant Records, Raleigh, North Carolina, Book 88, Page 193, Grant 257, dated March 7, 1796]. This grant is also recorded in Knox County, Tennessee Book B, No. 2, Register of Deeds office, and his name appears on the Knox County roll of Revolutionary War soldiers as having participated in the Battle of King’s Mountain [North Carolina soldiers in the Revolution]. Nicholas died in 1817. Mary Ephland Gibbs was born in 1739 and died in 1834. Both are buried in the historic Perry-Gibbs Cemetery. When this cemetery was established, it is believed to have been inside Reynolds Fort. In 1915, a stone was placed there for Nicholas and Mary by their descendants. Additional stones were placed some years later. I’ve been asked about the two Tennessee Historic Markers. One is near the site of Perry-Gibbs Cemetery at Harbison’s Crossroads, where Nicholas and Mary are buried. The other is at the Gibbs homestead east of Harbison’s Crossroads – both on Emory Road.
