Medical records request denied

SEVIERVILLE — When should defendants in a murder case be able to review employment and medical records of a medical examiner who took part in their case, but was later fired from the job? That was the issue in front of appeals court judges who reviewed the case of John Cote, who is charged with first-degree murder along with his wife, Sarah Cote, in the death of
their 11-month-old child, Gabriella, in 2007. The appeals court ruled that the defendants did not present a strong enough argument that the records they sought were material to the case. Authorities said the child died after ingesting a lethal dose of a pain killer. That finding was based in large part on the analysis of Dr. Sandra Elkins, who was then the Knox County medical examiner. Elkins also performed autopsies for other jurisdictions, including Sevier
County. The following year, however, Elkins took a leave of absence for what she said were medical reasons. The Knox County Commission later fired her after she failed to appear at a meeting to explain an incident in which police alleged she threatened to take her own life and that of an officer sent to the scene after a concerned person called emergency dispatchers. Attorneys for the Cotes have filed requests for Elkins’ records, includ-

ing medical files, personnel files and other items they believe might discredit her analysis in the child’s death. Circuit Judge Rex Henry Ogle agreed to request the records and review them in chambers to determine their relevance. Elkins’ attorney filed an interlocutory appeal, asking the court of criminal appeals to review that decision before the trial court moved forward.

Alderman Dale Carr talks to Jim Dykes of Rainforest Adventures, who brought along Big Bird, a feathered friend, during the reception before the Sevierville Chamer of Commerce’s annual banquet.
SEVIERVILLE — The Chamber of Commerce honored the city’s heritage during its annual banquet, with visits by the Sevier County High School’s band and cheerleaders and a film focusing on some longtime local business people. The band, and later the cheerleaders, marched through the crowd at the Events Center and performed for the audience. Throughout the night, the Chamber presented segments of a documentary featuring stories from Alf Newman, Ruby Hatcher Maples and Richard Isenberg. Fittingly, this year’s winner of the Citizen of the Year Award had a broad impact on the city as well. Mary Ruth Cutshaw served as on the Board of Mayor and Aldermen for eight years, and donated See chamber, Page A5

Golf event to benefit B-G clubs Submitted Report SEVIERVILLE — At the first golf ball drop last year, a helicopter from Sevier County Choppers dropped 1,345 numbered golf balls at Eagle’s Landing to see which one would land closest to the pin. The winner, Rick Pittser, won $6,725. The golf ball drop netted enough money to sponsor 20 children for an entire year at the Boys & Girls Club of the Smoky Mountains. The Bridgemont Group is again the sponsor for this year’s drop on Oct. 6, an event that has been registered with the state of Tennessee since it involves selling chances to the public. Each numbered golf ball corresponds to a ticket that can be bought for $20. All five Sevier County Pilot Food Marts and branches of the Boys & Girls Club have tickets available. From the ticket sales, 25 percent will be posted as the prize for the golf ball closest to the pin. The club hopes to sell all 5,000 golf balls and in doing so, the winning golf ball would win its ticket holder $25,000. The ball drop will take place at approximately 7 p.m. after tournament play has been completed. Fifty-four teams are currently registered, so only a few team spots remain in the annual four-person scramble. This year’s event, presented by returning sponsor Pilot Food Marts, tees off at 7:30 for the morning round with the afternoon round set to begin at 1. Breakfast for the morning

Meal planning essential Research states that Family Meal Time is important. However the question remains, “What’s for Dinner?” If you ask this, you are not alone. At 4 p.m., 75 percent of Americans don’t know what they’ll eat for dinner that night. Preparing meals takes time which is often in short supply in our busy lives. What are some time saving strategies that can help with this dilemma? Planning is truly the key to success with meal time. Whether you plan to eat out or at home, have a plan. Take a few minutes one evening to write down the meals you plan to serve and make your grocery list accordingly. Make your plan for one week or one month, whatever suits your time and budget. Write it down — post it on the refrigerator. Make your plan simple and realistic. (Not everyone can be a Food Network star) Having a plan saves time and energy — and is worth the effort. Plan “one-dish meals” like casseroles, pasta dishes, stir-fry and soups. Even a pizza can be healthy with vegetables, cheese, low-fat meats and whole grain crust. Freeze leftovers or extra portions for future meals. Be creative with leftovers. Prepare foods in advance. For example: Brown hamburger meat and freeze; Chop extra vegetables for pasta salads, stir-fry or soup. Combine convenience with fresh foods. For example: Rotisserie chicken for casseroles, salads and soups; Tortilla shells for salad wraps, breakfast burrito or pizza. Choose healthier options in products such
as “whole grain.” Look at food labels of products. Provide fruits and vegetables each day as snack or a meal. Use time-saving methods such as crock pots,
microwaves or pressure cookers. So make a plan. Be creative. Put on some fun music with an “I can do” apron. You can answer “What’s for dinner?” — and maybe even enjoy preparing it. — Linda Hyder is a Sevier County agricultural extension service agent who works with family and consumer sciences programs.

Submitted Report SEVIERVILLE — October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and the Breast Center at LeConte Medical Center is offering extended hours for mammography appointments. Mammo Mondays were designed to better accommodate working women, and to increase awareness about the importance of annual screening mammograms. The LeConte Breast Center is offering evening appointments on Oct. 4 and Oct. 18, from 5 p.m.–7:30 p.m. Mammography continues to be AN important tool in the early detection of breast cancer. Screening mammograms are recommended at age 35 to establish a baseline, and then recommended annually
for women age 40 and older. The Breast Center at LeConte Medical Center offers digital mammography. It uses the same technique as traditional film, but the digital image is recorded directly into a computer that can then be enlarged or high-
lighted for the radiologist to review. It also allows for other physicians or specialists to view the image more readily if consultation is needed. To schedule a mammogram at LeConte Medical Center, call 446-8000. Physician referral is not needed.

She does not just contribute financially, Mary Ruth is giving in spirit and heart. Those people are few and far between.� Cutshaw, for her part, seemed humbled and surprised to learn she’d won. She offered a simple explanation for her efforts: “I love Sevierville.� The former city official was introduced by Mayor Bryan Atchley, who said he asked her to run for the post after she spoke at a meeting. “She was a right hand to me for eight years,� he said. Like McCroskey, Atchley praised Cutshaw for her hard work “behind the scenes� in the community. The Chamber also announced changes in its board of directors.

TBR members question process NASHVILLE (AP) — Some members of the Tennessee Board of Regents acknowledged Wednesday that the process used to select the latest chancellor probably could have been carried out better to deflect criticism. The Senate Education Committee met for a second consecutive day to discuss the composition of the board and how candidates for the chancellor position were chosen. Several committee members have been criti-

The board selected Morgan after rewriting the job qualifications to fit his education level and experience and after interviewing only Morgan from among six applicants. Board member John Farris said “from an appearance standpoint,” some of the other candidates should have been interviewed. “I asked the question should we interview more

candidates, and there was not a lot of interest in doing that,” Farris told reporters outside Wednesday’s hearing. Board member and acting chairman Greg Duckett told reporters that interviewing more candidates may have negated some criticism, but he said “the key issue is broader communication.” “If you look at all the facts that were presented during these last two days, the real underlying issue is who knew what and when,” Duckett said.

“We could have done a better job of maybe proactively including members of the Senate Education Committee and others about the process, because we strive to follow our policies as well as the laws of the state of Tennessee.” Regents Howard Roddy said looking at more candidates may have helped the process, but he, like most of the board members, said Morgan “appeared by far to be our most qualified applicant.”

commentary
In tax cut, government steals less Progressives want to raise taxes on individuals who make more than $200,000 a year because they say it’s wrong for the rich to be “given” more money. Sunday’s New York Times carries a cartoon showing Uncle Sam handing money to a fat cat. They just don’t get it. As I’ve said before, a tax cut is not a handout. It simply means government steals less. What progressives want to do is take money from some — by force — and spend it on others. It sounds less noble when plainly stated. That’s the moral side of the matter. There’s a practical side, too. Taxes discourage wealth creation. That hurts everyone, the lower end of the income scale most of all. An economy that, through freedom, encourages the production of wealth raises the living standards of lower-income people as well as everyone else. A free society is not a zero-sum game in which every gain is offset by someone’s loss. As long as government keeps its thumb off the scales, the “makers” who get rich do so by making others better off. (When the government allocates capital or creates barriers to competition, all bets are off.) Of course, this is not the prevailing view among the intelligentsia. Columbia University Professor Marc Lamont Hill tells me, “Those who have more should pay more.” But is there a point where they stop producing wealth or leave altogether? “The rich have always cried wolf like that,” Hill says. But the wolf is here. Maryland created a special tax on rich people that was supposed to bring in $106 million. Instead, the state lost $257 million. Former Gov. Robert Ehrlich, who is running again for his old job, says: “It reminds me of Charlie Brown. Charlie Brown was always surprised when Lucy pulled the football away. And they’re always surprised in Washington and state capitals when the dollars never come in.” Some of Maryland’s rich left the state. “They’re out of here. These people aren’t stupid,” Ehrlich says. New York billionaire Tom Golisano isn’t stupid, either. With $3,000 and one employee, he started a business that processes paychecks for companies. He created 13,000 jobs. Then New York state hiked the income tax on millionaires. “It was the straw that broke the camel’s back,” he says. “Not that I like to throw the number around, but my personal income tax last year would’ve been $13,800 a day. Would you like to write a check for $13,800 a day to a state government, as opposed to moving to another state where there’s no state income tax or very low state income tax? He established residence in Florida, which has no personal income tax. Now Gov. David Paterson may have even seen the light. “We projected that we would get $4 billion, and we actually got well short of it,” he says. Art Laffer, the economist who has a curve illustrating this point named after him, isn’t surprised. “It’s just economics,” he says. “People don’t work to pay taxes. People work to get what they can after tax. They’ll change where they earn their income. They’ll change how they earn their income. They’ll change how much they earn, when they receive the income. They’ll change all of those things to minimize taxes.” We can see it in the statistics. In 1960, federal revenues were 18.6 percent of total output. Over the next 50 years, that percentage has rarely exceeded 20 percent or fallen below 17 percent. As Laffer says, people adjust their activities to the tax burden. Donald Trump, who knows something about making money, says of course the rich will leave when hit with higher taxes. “I know these people,” he told me. “They’re international people. Whether they live here or live in a place like Switzerland doesn’t really matter to them.” You haven’t left, I told him. “I haven’t left yet. ... Look, the rich people are going to leave. And other people are going to leave. You’re going to end up with lots of people that don’t produce. And then that’s the spiral. That’s the end.” And that’s another good reason for us to get on with reducing the size of government. — John Stossel hosts a show on the Fox Business Channel and is the author of “Myth, Lies, and Downright Stupidity: Get Out the Shovel — Why Everything You Know is Wrong.” (C)2009 JFS Productions Inc.
Editorial
The end of the marriage Report’s right: It’s time for Arrowmont, PBP to go separate ways The Gatlinburg Study Committee of Pi Beta Phi Fraternity for Women got it right when it suggested throughout its 28-page report that the fraternity and the Gatlinburg school should split up. It’s been a pretty good marriage over the last 40-plus years, but it’s time to divorce and go their separate ways. The study committee spent more than a year looking at paperwork, interviewing key figures and analyzing the history of the Arrowmont-Pi Beta Phi partnership. The committee concluded, in a report made public this week, what everybody else already had concluded: The two entities are no longer compatible and need to be independent of each other. Arrowmont realized this at least two years ago when Pi Beta Phi’s Grand Council planned to sell the property on which Arrowmont sits. That deal fell through, but the bond between the two was broken and would never be the same.
The big thing to do now, as both sides work through the separation, is to do it amicably and fairly. There is no rush about this. Arrowmont’s board already decided to stay in Gatlinburg rather than move to Greeneville. Pi Beta Phi knows that getting a good price for the 14 acres of Arrowmont property as well as its 56 or so acres surrounding it won’t be easy in these difficult times. It will be much easier to sell off the Arrowmont land separate from the other parcels. A fair price may not necessarily mean the best price or the most money, but merely an agreedto sum that promotes a spirit of cooperation. There are no villains here. The real culprit has been communication. Come to think of it, that’s the problem in most relationships, whether spouses or co-workers or countries. Lines of communication were closed off between Arrowmont and Pi Beta Phi, for whatever reason. It led to, or at least contributed to, the breakdown in the
relationship. Pi Beta Phi has moved its charitable giving away from Arrowmont and toward its new cause: literacy. Newer, younger fraternity members don’t understand or appreciate the long-standing relationship between Arrowmont and PBP. The study committee had some harsh things to say about the leadership at Arrowmont, suggesting the school was more interested in PBP’s money than its input and ideas. Whether true or not, that was the perception of the committee and the fraternity. It was another factor in the deterioration of the relationship. As Arrowmont and Pi Beta Phi work to end their partnership, it’s important that both sides work through the split without rancor or bitterness. Times change. Leadership changes. Philosophies change. Arrowmont can be much better and stronger on its own, though it will be challenging.

Public forum Sevier Senior Center praised for Summer Spectacular event
Editor: Congratulations to the Sevier County Senior Center for a job well done for the Summer Spectacular. Karen Estep was the leader and she, with her staff of Lisa Yarber, Jane Foraker, Ruth Jones, Ashley Estep and Jeannie, did a superb job in making sure that all who attended had a great day. Thanks to volunteers Todd and Merilee from Pigeon Care and Rehab and auction-
eers from Thompson-Carr. The entertainment was all volunteered. There was a great display of acrobatics from Cirque De Chine. All attendees were entertained with comedy and song from folks from Country Tonite which included Mike Caldwell, Jack Mollette, Ronny Spam, The Country Gentlemen, Bubba The Redneck Ranger, Lori Mullinax and the Voices of Mercy. I am sure that all who attended this Summer Spectacular express their appreciation to all for a job well done. The Sevier Senior Center is open to all folks not only those who reside in
Sevierville. There is something going on every day to suit everyone. Come on down and enjoy the people, have fun and stay young. Start by making the call to Jane Foraker at 453-8080, ext. 108, or Ruth Jones. Sevier County Senior Center has the best staff that you will ever find. You will find that when you first meet this staff you will think that you have known them for years. So make the call or “git on down there.” Normand Renaud Kodak

G-P to Union County before a tough 4-game stretch By COBEY HITCHCOCK Sports Writer GATLINBURG — The Gatlinburg-Pittman Highlanders football team has one eye on the Union County Patriots and the other on a tough four-game district stretch at the horizon of their regular-season schedule. And although the Patriots (1-4 overall, 1-0 in District 3-AA) have not had a season with more than three wins since a 7-4 campaign in 1994, they surprisingly defeated the District 3-AA rival Knoxville Carter Green Hornets 36-28 in Week 2. “Anytime you’ve got a ball game that you’re kindly heavily favored to win, you’ve got to keep your thoughts right because it can be easy have a big letdown,” said 39th-year G-P head football coach Benny Hammonds. “And (the Patriots) have beat Carter. “I don’t know how in the world that happened, but if they’ve got the capability of beating Carter, then they’ve got the capability of beating us. “We’ve just got to keep our thoughts hungry, and we’ve got to want to do the best we possibly can on Friday night.” The Highlanders injury list keeps growing from
game to game, but sometimes even from practice to practice. Both senior Turner Merritt and junior Terry Phillips are done for the season with knee injuries. Junior D.J. Ball left in the first half against Unicoi County with a knee issue and didn’t return to action this past Friday night, and senior Ryan Taylor hopes to return to play from a broken finger suffered against Gibbs in about two weeks, possibly three. Add to that a sore groin for senior Walter Barber and an ankle injury to junior Brandon Merritt at practice this week. Barber, who leads the team with 10 touchdown runs — two games with two scores, and two games with three — is expected to go against Union County, but the severity of Merritt’s ankle could be an issue for the team’s only experienced kickoff and field goal kicker. “I hope he can play, because if not that affects all of our kicking off and extra points, and I don’t know what we’ll do yet,” said Hammonds. The only other player on the varsity roster with kicking experience is senior Jeremy Hibbard, who has See G-P, Page A9

UT offers Bearden’s Young
Sevierville man claims $10K at Rotary tourney
KNOXVILLE — According to several Knoxville media outlets, the University of Tennessee finally offered Bearden Bulldogs senior running back Devrin Young a football scholarship on Wednesday. The offers have been
slow to come to Young due to his small stature — 5-foot-8, 165 pounds — but with the big numbers he’s been putting up this year, teams apparently can no longer ignore the player just because of his size. Young has accumulated 1,006 yards and 15 scores
on just 57 carries for the Bulldogs (5-0) through five games this season. The electrifying Young also has more than 300 kickoff-return yards, including three special teams TDs. Bearden will host Maryville 7 p.m. tonight for a televised contest.

Besides a poor 37-yard performance against the Steelers in the Titans’ lone loss of 2010, Tennessee running back Chris Johnson has been unstoppable and leading his team to victory. NFL GRIDIRON
Titans sticking with best offense in Chris Johnson By TERESA M. WALKER AP Sports Writer
NASHVILLE — The Tennessee Titans have the NFL’s best running back in Chris Johnson, and they make sure they give him the ball. Over and over and over again. The back who became just the sixth player in league history to run for 2,000 yards last season now leads the league with 75 carries through the first three games. The Associated Press
has had more carries in a game was the 2009 season finale when he had 32 rushes to reach 2,006 yards. It’s a heavy workload, but Johnson doesn’t seem to mind. He said Wednesday the Titans are 2-1 and working him right. “Basically what they’re doing is working me right and the plays they are callChris Johnson ing are working for us right. 2009 NFL Offensive Player So whatever the coaches of the Year had 32 rushes in ask, that’s up to me and the last week’s 29-10 win over players to execute what they the New York Giants. call.” The only time Johnson
MORRISTOWN — The Seymour Lady Eagles volleyball team dropped a heartbreaking five-set match at Morristown West on Tuesday night, falling 16-25, 15-25, 26-24, 25-22, and 13-15. “I thought the third time may be a charm,” said Seymour coach Ed Irvin, following the loss. “We have three conference losses. “The first loss was to Sevier County in five sets, 19-17 in the fifth set. The second loss was to Morristown East, 15-13 in the fifth set. And (Tuesday’s) loss to Morristown West, 15-13 in the fifth set.” The Lady Eagles (22-11 overall, 4-3 in District 2-AAA) started in less than impressive fashion, losing the first two by uninspired 25-16 and 25-15 finals. Down but not out, the Seymour ladies turned the match around with victories in the third (26-24) and fourth (25-22) sets
to take the match to the rubber set. The fifth game went back and forth, finally being tied at 13-13 with Seymour serving. After a Morristown timeout, however, the Lady Trojans got the last two points and the match. “I am very proud of these girls,” said Irvin. “We’re generally undersized at most of our blocking rotations, but they make up for their lack of size with hustle and determination. “We do not lose through lack of effort, but our inexperience raises its ugly head too many times throughout a match.” Seymour senior Andrea Markowitz led the effort with 39 sets, 16 assists and 14 digs, and sophomore Kasey Norman added 24 spikes, 11 points, 10 digs, seven kills and three aces.
TKA volleyball wins in five sets The King’s Academy Lady Lions volleyball team upped their season record to 6-7 with a five-set match win against Berean on Tuesday night. The Lady Lions fell into an early hole after losing the first two games by 25-18 and 25-16 finals, but TKA came back to win three straight 25-22, 25-23 and 15-7.
Mary Jo Fowler led TKA with nine points, four kills and two aces. Cheyenne Tillman added seven points, six kills, four blocks and an ace. Madison McDaniel also had eight points and two kills in the win. Leading Berean were Tory Gilliland with 16 points and Joy Gauge with seven points and seven kills.

Smoky Bears freshmen win shootout The Sevier County High School Smoky Bears freshman football team pulled out a thrilling 41-38 win over the Morristown West Trojans on Tuesday night. With the Bears trailing 38-33 late in the fourth, SCHS quarterback Luke Manning connected deep with Jacob Whaley for a 38-yard touchdown. Manning then connected with Paden Pilgrim for the two-point conversion to make it the final. The Bears got on the scoreboard first with a Manning to Ben Ogle 70-yard touchdown pass, and Dustin Sutton’s pointafter kick made it 7-0 SCHS. West, however, answered with a 100-yard interception return, and after a successful two-point conversion, the Trojans were on top 8-7 by the end of the first quarter. The Bears regained the lead in the second when Manning connected with Whaley for a 36-yard score. The two-point try failed, but Sevier County led 13-8. The Purple and White

Manning found Chris Allen for the two-point conversion to make it 21-8 by intermission. The Trojans earned the lone third quarter score with a 35-yard touchdown run, cutting the Bears lead
to 21-16 with another successful two-point try. Sevier County responded in the fourth quarter when Manning again connected with Whaley for a 50-yard touchdown. The two-point pass failed, but the Bears led 27-16. West cut into that lead with a 60-yard kickoff
return, however, and a successful two-point try made it 27-24 SCHS. West took its first lead of the night with a 56-yard touchdown run. The twopoint play failed, but Sevier County trailed 30-27. The Bears responded when Manning found Allen for an 18-yard touchdown. The two-point play failed, but SCHS was back on top 33-30. West answered again, however, and took a 38-33 lead over the Bears with a 12-yard touchdown run and a two-point pass play. But the Bears got the last laugh with the Manningto-Whaley score at the end. Sevier County’s Chaz McKinney, Bailey Fields and Ogle all had fumble recoveries in the win. The Bears had three touchdowns called back on penalties in the first quarter, two of them Manning passes and the other a Manning run. Without the penalties, Manning would have had seven TD passes and a rushing score in the contest.

Family upset with 25-year-old daughter’s unfaithful husband
Zits
Blondie
Baby Blues
Beetle Bailey
Dear Annie: Our 25-year-old daughter and her husband, “Buddy,” are having marital problems. “Kristen” told me things weren’t right between them, and I recently found out Buddy has been cheating. They have been married only a year. He’s on his second affair, although he says this woman is “just a friend.” He likes to “hang out” at the other woman’s house, and when Kristen said she wasn’t comfortable with that, he didn’t care and went anyway. Kristen found out that when she was on a business trip, this woman stayed in their house. Buddy doesn’t seem to think there’s anything wrong with that. They want to work things out, and my daughter told him in order to do that he needs to drop all contact with this woman, but he refuses. He said he deleted her phone number from his cell, but Kristen checked and discovered that he simply listed her phone number under another name. Kristen asked him to see a marriage counselor with her, but he won’t go. He says they can work this out on their own. I told Kristen that if he won’t go, she should. What else can I tell her besides the obvious? -Our Monkey Dear Yours: Kristen should think long and hard about staying with someone who doesn’t understand or care about his obligations as a husband. A man who cheats twice within the first year of marriage is not likely to change his ways on his own. But
you are right that your daughter can benefit from counseling with or without Buddy. We hope she will take your advice. Dear Annie: My husband and I are retired. “Freddie” is quite helpful around the house repairing things, but he has no male friends he can hang out with, so he spends most of his time watching TV. Whenever I try to start a conversation, he belittles me, makes fun of me and says I never accomplished anything, even though I worked a full-time job for decades while raising four children. Everything has to go his way, and I must agree with whatever he says. Nothing I do is good enough. Freddie has a very short fuse, and all of our conversations seem to end with an argument. I’m always walking on eggshells. Of course, whenever we go out with my women friends, he is extremely attentive and pleasant to them. He even had the nerve to ask me which of my friends would be most suitable for him. He likes to buy little things for my friends, yet pleads poverty when it’s time for my birthday. I don’t think I can take any more. For my own sanity, it’s time for a change. What is your advice? -- Fed Up

For Better Or Worse
Tina’s Groove
Dear Fed Up: Some men, once they retire, become depressed and need to prove that they are still desirable and valued. Freddie flirts with your friends because their attention boosts his ego. Belittling you makes him feel superior. Try to get him active in organizations that will value his skills and experience. Check your local community center, church, YMCA, park district, hospitals and schools, and find out how Freddie can volunteer his services. Dear Annie: I have a suggestion for “On Strike” to help everyone in the family contribute to the work at a family gathering. My mother would write up various jobs on index cards, with tasks divided according to child and adult levels. When you arrived, you picked a card. It was a given: Everybody contributed in some shape or form, everyone enjoyed the event because it was a group effort, and we all showed appreciation for everyone else for doing their part. -- Miss Those Big Family Gatherings in Ohio Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

The shot came on the 175yard Hole 5, and Robinson used a hybrid 4 to complete the miracle shot. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were all very excited about it,â&#x20AC;? said Debbie Orsburn, a volunteer for the tournament. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the first time weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever had anyone win the prize for a hole-inone.â&#x20AC;?
As excited as everyone else was, Robinson had the most reason for it after winning the cool $10,000 prize, although he could not be reached immediately for comment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(Robinson) was really excited,â&#x20AC;? said Orsburn. Ronda Morris, the director of the Girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and Boysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Club in Gatlinburg, was the Rotary event volunteer who witnessed the shot. The Rotary tournament
has been going on for at least the past 12 years consecutively, according to event volunteers. Although no golfer has ever claimed the cash prize before Robinson, there are two par 3 holes on the Bent Creek course where the prize money has always been offered. The other is Hole 7. chitchcock@themountainpress.com
