Calendar options topic for KCS’s Alves ■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
Data compiled by Dr. Elizabeth Alves, Knox County Schools’ chief academic officer, indicates most school systems evaluated are pleased with the benefits of a balanced calendar — more spring and fall break time and less summer vacation. “That’s the feedback that I’ve
gotten from most the [schools] that I’ve spoken to,” Alves said. “There’s a little transition when you make a change. “We may be a little later bringing this forward just because we’re trying to get a lot of feedback from the community and from the parents,” Alves added. “I’ve researched studies that have been done over the past couple of decades. I’ve also
reached out to Maryville and Oak Ridge [city schools], I’ve spoken to Putnam County [Cookeville], I’ve spoken to Reno, Nev. … Across the country or here locally that are in the process or have been implementing a balanced calendar for some time.” For example, “Maryville has been doing this for a while in See CALENDAR on Page 4A

Knox County Council of Garden Clubs and The Shops at Franklin Square invite Farragut residents to attend the 22nd Annual Franklin Square Spring Garden Festival. The event is slated from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturday, April 25, at The Shops at Franklin Square, 9700 Kingston Pike, and will take place rain or shine. A portion of the proceeds benefit Knoxville Council of Garden Clubs. Booths offering plants, crafts and more will set the scene for this year’s Spring Garden Festival. Each year, the Council and Franklin Square Merchants Association partner to hold the event, Linda Wimbrow with Knox County Council of Garden Clubs, said. “Every year, Franklin Square shops host this event,” Wimbrow said “They donate a portion of the proceeds to the Council. Franklin Square is just amazing having us here. “Knox County Council of Community Clubs appreciates Franklin Square. They really do a lot,” she added. “Local nurseries are coming

Funds for park projects discussed

TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com
As work on the budget continues for Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen, it faces decisions on funding upcoming Capital Investment Plan projects for its parks. Two projects Board members are studying this year are at McFee and Mayor Bob Leonard parks. At McFee Park, the splash pad system has operating issues, Sue Stuhl, Parks and Leisure director, said. “We are able to operate it, but it takes a lot of work to operate it,” she said. “We are hoping with a new system, we could lessen
the maintenance on it.” Besides the splash pad system replacement, Stuhl said, “It’s so well-used, we need to expand it because it gets very crowded. We think we can make it larger. “For next year, right now, the plan is to include $400,000 for one splash pad replacement and expansion at McFee Park,” Stuhl said, adding the Town would not spend more than $400,000 if the project is approved. “The plan would be to start that this fall, so we could open it again next spring, when it is done,” she said. The design for the replacement and expansion will be determined when the Town gets into the design phase, right after
July 1, she added. “Our goal is to start construction after the summer,” Stuhl said. “We hope to have it up and running by May [2016].” Another project on the Town’s radar is two artificial turf fields at Mayor Bob Leonard Park. While the amount needed for the project depends on what the Board decides to do, Stuhl said $1,825,000 is tentatively being budgeted for that park. “That will be used to renovate the rectangular fields 1 and 3, the upper restroom and possibly adding some parking,” she said. “It won’t happen this fiscal year,” she said. “There’s not See BUDGET on Page 4A

While looking at new sources of revenue to fund proposed capital investment projects, Farragut Town administrator David Smoak has proposed conducting a special census as one of Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen’s goals for the coming fiscal year. “The state of Tennessee allows cities and counties to conduct up to four special censuses each decade between federal census counts,” Smoak said. “Farragut receives state-shared revenues from the state of Tennessee based on our population count, which in 2010 was 20,676,” he said. “For each person residing in Farragut in 2014, the Town received $115.23. “These revenues are split between the General Fund and the State Street Aid Fund and is our main revenue source for resurfacing our streets each year,” Smoak said. As the Board and Town staff work on the coming fiscal year’s budget, cost for the special census is added to the Town’s proposed expenditures. “We are budgeting $50,000 for a special census in the FY2016 budget, which starts July 1, 2015, and ends June 30, 2016,” he said. “The Town will have to finish
its count and turn in the results by March 1, [2016] so the Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development may conduct field verification of the census and certify the results by July 1, 2016,” Smoak said. “The state requires that the first and last names of all persons living at a particular address are included for the names to count.” The Town would need to budget the special census expense out of its general fund, he added. “We estimate that we should receive over $100,000 in additional revenues each year based on a higher population count,” Smoak said. “Any additional revenues we receive from the state would be divided according to the formula the state provides for shared revenues to municipalities. “Some of those funds would go to the Town general fund, and some to the state street aid fund for resurfacing,” he said. “We would probably start the census project this fall as we have a March 1 deadline imposed by the state of Tennessee to get the census count turned in to the East Tennessee Development District so they can certify the count.” Initially, the proposal for a See CENSUS on Page 4A

KCSO detonates gauze

Matthew Smith never thought his grandfather’s 1930s-era Boy Scout first-aid kit could hold a volatile substance. He had listed the box on eBay.

TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com
Matthew Smith never thought he would see a controlled detonation near his mother’s home off Martel Road, just outside of Farragut. “It’s absolutely unbelievable,” Smith said. “It was one of those things you would never think
would happen.” Nevertheless, Knox County Sheriff’s Office’s Bomb Squad detonated gauze from an old Boy Scout first-aid kit in a field near his parents’ home off Clear Ridge Road Friday, March 27. It all started when Smith was getting some of his grandfather’s items ready to sell on eBay, he said.
“One of those items was a 1930s’-era Boy Scout first aid kit,” Smith said. “Those kits were given to every Boy Scout,” he added. Smith said the kit held some original items, such as an unopened 3-inch-by-3-inch package of 24-ply gauze pads. “They were soaked in picric acid. It was used for burns,” he said. “I didn’t think anything about it,” Smith said. “I took [the gauze] out and handled it. I put it on eBay, and a couple days after I listed it, someone messaged me on eBay and told me to call the police right away and that the picric acid was extremely volatile and prone to explode easily.” At first he didn’t believe the messenger, Smith said, so he Goggled picric acid. There, he said he found a link showing a video of a detonation and talked about the acid. “I realized how serious it was,” Smith said. He talked to a police officer he knew and called Knox County Sheriff’s Office Friday, March 27. See GAUZE on Page 4A
TDEC offers free radon kits NASHVILLE — Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, in observance of Earth Day, will offer free radon test kits for a limited time as part of its ongoing efforts to inform Tennesseans about the dangers of radon exposure. “It is important for Tennesseans to test their homes because radon acts unpredictably,” TDEC Commissioner Bob Martineau said. “We are pleased to provide a simple do-it-yourself test kit that can determine the presence of radon in the home and can help prevent exposure.” According to the EPA, Americans spend about 90 percent of their time indoors. This can be problematic, as radon is a naturally occurring gas that can seep into homes through cracks and
openings in the foundation. Radon cannot be seen, tasted or smelled, but in concentrated levels can pose a threat to human health. The EPA estimates approximately 70 percent of Tennessee’s population lives in high risk or moderate risk radon areas. According to the EPA, radon is the number one cause of lung cancer among non-smokers and is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. Radon test kits are the first step toward a solution and are easy to use. Tennesseans can visit radon booths at the following events to receive a complimentary short-term test kit: • Nashville’s Earth Day Festival at Centennial Park in Nashville from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.,
Saturday, April 18. • Knoxville’s Earth Fest from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., Saturday, April 18, at World’s Fair Park in Knoxville. For additional information about radon and to register for a complimentary test kit, visit http://www.tn.gov/environment/sustainable-practices_ radon-program.shtml or contact the Tennessee Radon Program at 800-232-1139.

Calendar From page 1A
• On the Baldwin Park’s comments about the multi-family zoning for the Continental Properties Inc., I’m reminded [that] the Boring Road neighbors were not for Baldwin Park. When the Stooksbury family sold the land where the Baldwin Park is they had some beautiful cattle on it and [an] old tractor or two operated on the 18-acre property and a lot of Boring Road people were opposed to the Baldwin Park project. They wanted to keep it as a farm. So, Baldwin Park was change and progress people were opposed to, particularly some Boring Road residents. So, let’s remember that. • This is a message to the bicyclists on Turkey Creek Road. I don’t mind giving you the right of way when you are supposed to get it. But, you do not pass vehicles on the right-hand side between a vehicle and the curb because the rest of your bicycle pack has traffic backed up. That’s illegal and you are supposed to follow the laws of the road. • This is a comment on the Continental Properties [Inc.] proposal. I support the proposal because one of Farragut’s Comprehensive Land Use Plan strategies is to create greater housing choice. As [Alderman] Ron Honken has pointed out in the [Farragut Municipal] Planning Commission meeting, everyone in Farragut cannot live in a $400,000-plus home. There are multi-family communities right around this property Continental is asking for rezoning. Waverly Court is a multi-family per acre project right beside it. You have Fox Den Condominium apartments that have been in the back of Fox Den for 25-years plus. We have good
apartment communities in Derby Run and Lanesborough that have been good citizens of the Town having good young professionals and other people of the community in there. So I applaud the Town on the Land Use Plan for this property being multi-family. That’s the Town’s objective for this property [which] is multi-family. It meets the strategy of the Town for encouraging greater housing choice. • After reading last week’s presstalk and the comments of how many people were in attendance at the Farragut Municipal Planning Commission to voice opposition to the proposed apartments off Peterson Road, I went to the Town’s website and looked at the video of the meeting and found that statements made in this column by those opposed to the Continental Properties project seemed embellished. For example, nowhere on the video did Mr. Shipley say this project was “better” suited for the Town’s Downtown District. He did say it would be a good fit. The presstalker stated it was a “better” fit. The one thing that did stick out was the video presstalker who said that two people would only have to make $10.80 per hour in order to live in this complex. Is there something adversely wrong with people who only earn $10-plus per hour. I would think that [the] majority of people who work in the town of Farragut, especially those in retail, don’t make more than $10 per hour. Are you saying that these people aren’t good enough to live near you? By rough count there appeared to be only about 100 to maybe 125 people in attendance to this complex.
Most of those people who spoke came from Fox Den, Waverly Court and Baldwin Park, the last two projects were heavily protested by their neighbors. I remember when a similar issue came up years ago and affordable housing was discussed and similar comments came from the public. Teachers then voiced outrage by saying they were good enough to teach their kids but not good enough to live next door to them. The crowd at Town Hall would only represent about one/half of one percent of the 20,000-plus people who live in Farragut. Hopefully, the commission won’t let such a small minority rule this decision. • I do remember during the elections last year that state Sen. Dr. [Richard] Briggs’ residence came into question and it was confirmed by the [Knox County] Election Commission that Dr. Briggs lived in an apartment in Lanesborough. I assume that he is also one of the undesirable people who live in apartments. Lanesborough is off Grigsby Chapel Road for those of you who have forgotten. • This is a short comment regarding the Editor’s Note in this week’s farragutpress where it says during the March 19 Commission meeting there were by count about 100 people in the Committee Room but there was no way to tell who was there and for what reason. It was very obvious and clear by show of hands that everyone was there in opposition to the apartment complex and that was made clear to the committee members because everyone raised their hands in response to a question. So that is just a misrepresentation by the editor of what happened at that meeting.
some of their schools and they’ve made that transition system wide — and they seem to love the process,” Alves said. “… They see a lot of positives in terms of being able to provide support and interventions and enrichment activities for students. And professional development opportunities for their teachers. “Oak Ridge will be implementing school wide next school year. They’ve been doing it probably for a dozen years in a couple of their elementary schools,” she added. None of the school systems she talked to raised concerns about costs or that balanced calendar adversely affected high school students’ advanced placement summer courses, Alves said. “Maryville City is a highperforming district that has lots and lots of AP courses available for their students. They have not perceived [a balanced calendar] as being a challenge that was insurmountable,” Alves said. Alves said the 45-10 “is the most popular one that we’re heard from folks” versus 45-15. The 45-10 plan includes two weeks off for fall break, winter holiday break and spring break, with 43 days of Monday-throughFriday summer vacation. The 4515 plan increases the breaks to three weeks and reduces summer vacation to 28 weekdays. The current so-called “traditional” calendar allows for two days of fall break, one week of spring break and two weeks for winter holiday, with 55 weekdays summer vacation. “It’s not too late” to implement balanced calendar for the 2016-17 school year, Alves said, provided enough data and survey information can been gathered

home, Smith said. “He told her it was protocol for an ambulance and fire department to show up,” Smith added. When Smith got off work, he went to his parents’ house and found an ambulance, fire truck and two sheriff’s officers and bomb squad officials were at their house, and he was told Lifestar was on standby. “They dug a hole and put the gauze in the hole,” he said. “They lit a four-minute fuse and blew it up. Even the first responders videoed [the detonation]. They couldn’t believe it. “One of the bomb squad guys told me it could have blown off my hand,” Smith said.

special census came up during the Board’s annual strategic planning meeting in January. “We’re now almost six years in from the last time we did a special census,” he told Board members. “Since that time, we’ve approximately built 400 homes in Town.” He said the staff plans on hiring census workers to help conduct the special census and would advertise for those positions when they become available later this year.
“I was shuffled around until I talked to someone with the bomb squad,” he said. “When I told him what the acid was, his tone got serious. “He asked me where [the gauze] was, and I told him all the stuff was on the dining room table of my parents’ house,” Smith said. “He said, ‘This is what I want you to do.’ He told me to hang up, call his mother and tell her not to go into the room and call him right back. I did.” The bomb squad official then called Smith’s mother and told her someone was coming to her

enough time to start it.” Stuhl added there are a number of factors determining the project’s final cost and when the project could be started. One of those factors is whether or not the Board opts to apply for a grant. “There’s the possibility there’s another parks and recreation funding grant,” she said. The
and evaluated to where KCS could “bring forward a recommendation to the School Board sometime during in late spring. … Usually that occurs in the April-May time frame.” Stephanie Thompson is among the parade of Farragut public schools principals supporting a potential switch to a balanced calendar. “I do think Balanced Calendar is good for kids,” Thompson, Farragut High School principal, said following a public forum at Farragut Middle School Monday, March 23, which included all four Farragut public schools principals. “At the same time I am very respectful of the community that I serve. In my building, our teacher survey says we’re about 50-50 and my parents’ survey … and I will say this is a very small sampling of parents that have responded to mine, but it’s 50-50.” Thompson said some of her teachers told her they voted “no because they have unanswered questions. ‘If it was 45-10 I would be for it; if it’s 45-15 I can’t be for it.’” Responding to a suggestion from Karen Carson, Knox County Board of Education Fifth District representative [including Farragut schools] to scrap the 45-15 because of low survey interest, Thompson said, “I would certainly support a movement in that direction.” In terms of budget, “You have to weigh the financial impact versus the potential gain that you’re going to get for our student achievement,” Thompson said. Carson said she hopes Board of Education could have enough data and local survey information in hand to make a decision before the end of this school year.
Town might apply for the grant in 2016, depending on the Board’s wishes. However, that would mean the project would take place the next fiscal year if it goes for the grant, Stuhl said. She said the project could be done sooner if the Town does not apply for a grant.

Rain wins again during FHS-Dawgs clash ■
KEN LAY Correspondent
For the second time in 2015, rain has halted the Bearden High School-Farragut High School baseball rivalry. The two teams were scheduled to play Monday, April 6, but Mother Admirals-Bulldogs N a t u r e had other (suspended) plans. The Bulldogs and Ads saw their District 4-AAA tilt suspended before the bottom of second inning got underway. The two teams will continue the game at 6:30 p.m., Thursday, April 9, on John Heatherly Field at the Ballpark in Farragut. The defending state champion Admirals had a game against Bearden March 11 at Bearden’s Phil Garner Ballpark rained out. It will be played starting at 2 p.m., Sunday, April 19. On Monday, Farragut starting pitcher Dylan Pacifico retired the Bulldogs (11-5 overall, 4-1 in District 4-AAA after Monday) in order to begin the game. The Ads (15-3, 6-0 after Monday) squandered a scoring chance in the bottom of the frame. Center fielder Cole Morgan started things by drawing a leadoff walk. He advanced to second one out later when Chase
Fullington reached on an error. Morgan went to third when Duncan Pence reached on a fielder’s choice. Bearden sophomore pitcher David Beam, however, stranded Morgan at third and averted any damage when he struck out Ads’ first baseman Jake Hagenow to end the inning. The Bulldogs got a base runner in the top of the second when second baseman Brady Duncan reached on a leadoff walk. Duncan, one of Knox County’s top hitters, advanced to third when Pacifico made an errant pickoff throw. Duncan, however, was retired when FHS catcher Nico Mascia caught him leaning and promptly threw to Pence to gun Duncan down. Pacifico, who had a walk and two strikeouts, then fanned Bearden right fielder Josh Smith, another hot hitter for the Bulldogs this season, to end the inning. The game then underwent a short rain delay before being postponed. “We’ll play Thursday at 6:30,” Farragut head coach Matt Buckner said. “We played an inning-and-a-half and nobody scored.

Memorable Soccer Ads rally at BHS for retiring Culbreth ■ ALAN SLOAN

If Wallie Culbreth never coaches another high school game on Bearden’s Bruce Allender Field, his final 80 minutes against the rival Bulldogs will long be remembered. Especially the final four minutes Thursday, April 2. Falling behind BHS 2-1 on a goal by junior forward Gabe Alvarez with just 3:50 left in the game, the Ads didn’t quit on their soon-to-be-retiring head coach. In fact, Farragut’s final two goals to pull off an unlikely 3-2 victory — coming within 1:22 of Alvarez’s second marker of the game — turned out to be a crossing pass from the left side of the pitch that somehow curved into the goal, then a converted penalty kick following a controversial Alan Sloan

I couldn’t decide so Admirals 3 I kicked it SoccerDawgs 2 and then it curved outside and went in. Probably a little help with the wind. “We were just like, ‘we have got to beat them,’ and we were just going to do whatever we could to win,” Bihlmeyer added. A free kick in the FHS offensive zone sailed in front of the net a few seconds later, and after SoccerDawgs goalkeeper Matt Marlow went high in the air to take away a possible Farragut
header goal, a whistle sounded indicating a foul and Admirals pk. John Totten, junior center-midfielder, converted the attempt, beating Marlowe to his left, with 2:38 remaining. Having converted his first-ever penalty kick in high school game, “My teammates came up and said, ‘You’ve got this,’” Totten said. “Thankfully it went in. I’m really happy for my teammates.” With the Admirals already having rallied from two goals behind to earn a victory and a tie this season, “We knew we were going to come back and get it,” Totten said. “We’re real thankful we got it. “It’s a fantastic feeling because we know coach isn’t coming back, See FHS RALLIES, Page 8A

Lady Admirals rout Lenoir City 20-2 ■
KEN LAY Correspondent
Farragut High School’ softball head coach David Moore said his team’s District 4-AAA victory at Lenoir City capped off a feel-good day. “This was a good day for us,” Moore said after his team routed the Lady Panthers 20-2 Thursday, April 2. Lady Admirals 20 “ W e ’ r e going to Lady Panthers 2 give the girls the [three-day] weekend off and let them rest and get ready for some big things to come. “Lenoir City is a really young team and I know that but this was a good win and it was a feel-good day.” Farragut (8-5 overall, 5-1 in District 4-AAA) dismantled the Lady Panthers just 24 hours after dropping a 5-0 non-district decision to Gibbs in a rematch of last year’s Region 2-AAA semifinal game won by the Lady Eagles. “Our district is tough and I was talking to [Gibbs coach] Carol [Mitchell] about how much tougher, top to bottom, that our
district is than theirs. They have two or three really good teams but after that, they drop off. “Our district is so much tougher from top to bottom. In our district, the top five teams can beat anybody on any given night.” The Lady wasted little time putting the Lady Panthers away. FHS scored seven runs in the top of the first inning and 13 more in the second before Moore gave his reserves some playing time. “We scored seven runs in the first and we scored 13 in the second and then I cleared my bench,” Moore said. The starters may not have been around at game’s end but they certainly took advantage of their early chances against one of the league’s younger teams. Seven Lady Ads had a multiplehit game. Leadoff hitter and freshman Andrea Sarhatt went 2for-4 and scored twice. She had a double and three stolen bases and drove in four runs. Junior shortstop Niki Slone had a pair of doubles and scored two runs. See SOFTBALL, Page 7A
Four home runs fuel Dawgs’ Demarini surge ■

Bearden literally powered its way to a 7-5 home victory against Ooltewah, the first of two Bulldogs victories in four tries during annual Demarini Diamond Classic played throughout West Knox County. “The bats came alive, we had f o u r Bulldogs 7 h o m e Owls 5 runs,” BHS head coach John Rice said about how his Bulldogs accounted for all its run production Friday afternoon, April 3: two-run blasts by senior catcher Kyle Porritt, sophomore right fielder David Beam and junior shortstop Bryson Ford plus a solo shot from junior designated hitter/reliever Paul Underwood. “We’ve been hitting the ball pretty decent at times.”
Going 2-2 in four Demarini games that included a 9-5 victory against Science Hill Saturday afternoon, April 4 (all played at BHS’s Phil Garner Ballpark), Bearden began the week 11-5 overall, 4-1 in District 4-AAA play. The Owls ended Demarini play at 6-9. Underwood picked up a save while excelling at the plate versus Ooltewah. Turning back an Owls’ threat in the top of the fifth inning, first and second with one out, the junior also added a single to go with his solo homer. It was his first game this season as a designated hitter. “If you saw him hit today you’d think he was our consistent DH,” Rice said. “In two games I think he hit two home runs and hit another ball off the wall.” “You’ve got to go out there and go after them every time,” said See BHS-OOLTEWAH, Page 8A

Mt. Juliet proves to be tough FHS foe
■
KEN LAY Correspondent
When Mt. Juliet High School baseball head coach Mark Purvis brought his team to the Demarini/Diamond Classic, he wanted to see how the Golden Bears stood against some premiere competition. “We wanted to see how we stacked up against the best,” Purvis said after his squad (12-5) notched a 5-0 victory over the host Admirals Friday night, April 3, on John Heatherly Field at the Ballpark in Farragut. “We wanted to see how we would compete and we really had some kids step up tonight. “[Farragut head coach Matt] Buckner does a great job. I consider him a friend and Farragut is the best.” Farragut may boast one of Tennessee’s best baseball teams
but Mt. Juliet junior pitcher Jacob Cole was able to keep the Admirals at bay. He allowed just three hits to Farragut, which has had its share of offensive struggles since returning from an elite tournament in North Carolina, t h a t couldn’t Golden Bears 5 s o l v e Admirals 0 Cole. “It was just a correlation of things this week,” Buckner said after his team was stifled the Mt. Juliet hurler. “We didn’t play offense well. We didn’t play defense well and we didn’t pitch well. “If you don’t do those things well, you’re not going to win too many ballgames. The game’s just that way.” The Ads (13-3) squandered a golden scoring opportunity in the bottom of the first inning when they left the bases loaded.
Leadoff hitter Cole Morgan singled. One out later, Chase Fullington walked before Duncan Pence reached on a fielder’s choice. Jake Hagenow then drew a free pass to load the bases. Cole, however, was able to wiggle out of the jam when he induced an inning-ending flyout from Nico Mascia. “I think he really grew up tonight,” Purvis said of Cole, who yielded a pair of second-inning hits to the Admirals, who got a no-hitter from Thomas Keyes in a 2-0 win over Noblesville (Indiana) in their tournament opener Thursday, April 2 and needed a walk-off home run from Pence to outlast a pesky Heritage team Wednesday, April 1. Farragut reliever Carson Strickland pitched a flawless seventh before Cole retired the Ads in order in the bottom of the frame to end the game.

Soccer Hawks ‘took care of business,’ stay perfect ■
KEN LAY Correspondent
Hardin Valley Academy’s boys soccer team kept its perfect record intact with a 4-0 District 4-AAA home victory over West High School Thursday, April 2. The Hawks (6-0 overall, 3-0 in the district starting the week) wasted little time seizing control of the match against the Rebels, who saw their early-season struggles continue. HVA took a 1-0 lead when Logan Kington converted a penalty kick in the fifth minute. Early goals have become a habit for the Hawks thus far this season. “In all of our games, we’ve been fortunate to score early,” Hardin Valley head coach Mike McLean said. “I’ll be interested to see how we respond if we need a goal late. “We took care of business tonight and we played good defense. Any time you play a district game, it’s going to be tough because the best is always going to come out. They [the Rebels] have a very fast and athletic team.” West may be quick but the Rebels were unable to sustain
any constant pressure against the Hawks. West did generate a few scoring chances via the counter attack but Hardin Valley’s defense was able to stifle those chances. “As a center back, I take pride in our shutouts,” Kington said. “ We ’ v e Hawks 4 taken Rebels 0 care of business so far but our district is extremely tough. “We’ve gotten things done but we still have some tough games left to play.” The Hawks expanded their edge to 2-0 when senior defender Sean Ryan scored in the 11th minute. Ryan’s marker was assisted by Ben Rice. West coach Keith Robinson said he was impressed with Hardin Valley. “They have a great team,” Robinson said of the Hawks. “I think that they’re the team to beat. “Our effort was there and I’m proud of our guys because they didn’t quit. You can’t beat a great team with just effort. It helps but if you make a mistake here or make a mistake there, they’re going to take advantage of it.
The Hawks took a 3-0 lead when Cameron Schneider tallied in the 13th minute off an assist from Kington. “Their second and third goals were just phenomenal goals,” Robinson, who saw his squad drop to 1-5 overall and 0-2 in the district, said. West kept Hardin Valley off the scoreboard for the remainder of the opening half thanks to some huge point-blank saves from netminder Desmond Thompson, who also played on the Rebels’ 2014 Class 5A state championship football team in 2014. The Hawks and Rebels slugged through a second half but West spent much of the second stanza a man down due to a red card. Hardin Valley scored its fourth goal late in the match when Shawn Foster took a pass from Tom Sissom and headed the ball past Thompson and into the back of the Rebels’ net in the 71st minute. “That was a great goal,” McLean said of the match’s final marker. “Those kinds of opportunities don’t come along all that often and I felt the need to put that one in the back of the net and help us win this district game,” Foster said.

and we really wanted to do this for him,” Totten added about Culbreth, who announced he’ll be retiring at the end of this, his 14th season at FHS, having won four TSSAA Class AAA state titles (2003, 2004, 2007 and 2009) and one national title (2004). “We've been behind 2-0 twice this year, so we’re used to coming back,” Culbreth said. While Farragut improved to 51-1 overall, Bearden fell to 6-1-0. A last-minute BHS attempt to tie, an open shot from about 15 yards in front, sailed barely wide right with 1:27 showing. Ryan Radcliffe, SoccerDawgs
head coach, labeled both penalty kick calls, including the one his team received less than three minutes into the game, “unfortunate, questionable calls. One team capitalized the other team didn't.” The difference was Alvarez pushed his pk wide left versus FHS goalkeeper Eli Lewis. Radcliffe said he at first thought Bearden’s critical “inthe-box” penalty was against Marlow. However, the referee “called a handball on one of our defenders,” he added. “I don't understand how there's a handball on a defender when our keeper goes up, grabs it, comes back down and grabs it again.” Alex Schupp put FHS up 1-0 with 29:50 to play on a sharply
struck ball from about 30 yards out, beating Marlowe to his right. But Alvarez tied it 46 seconds later, controlling a pass in the middle and nailing the shot from about 20 yards out. “He's such a good kid that he doesn't understand how a special of a player he is sometimes,” Radcliffe said. “You take records off, you take scoring off, you take every advantage off when it comes to Bearden-Farragut,” Alvarez said. “They just showed us they wanted it more. … Farragut's defense is really good.” However, “My team was just outstanding. God blessed me with a great team, great coaches, great fans,” Alvarez added. “It's just a tough one to lose.”

Underwood, who allowed two earned runs, four hits and one walk along with two strikeouts in 2 2/3 innings of work. Offensively, “Those two home runs [in the Demarini Classic] really, really helped my confidence,” Underwood said. “I think Paul threw in three games this week, so him coming out there and giving us quality innings is really a plus,” Rice said. “He’s done a really good job coming out of the pen for us.” Starter Sean Walsh, a junior, picked up the victory, going 4 1/3 innings before giving way to Underwood. He allowed three earned runs, seven hits and three walks to go with two strike-
outs. “He struggled in the first inning, but he went to work and gave us four really strong innings,” Rice said. “When you’re playing your fifth or sixth game of the week, and you’ve already thrown a lot of guys, you need guys to go out there and give everything they’ve got and be gritty, and Sean did that. He did an excellent job.” Bearden’s other Demarini games were a 7-4 loss to Mt. Juliet Thursday, April 2, plus an 11-1 setback earlier Friday to Fishers, Ind. Ford said this tough competition “helps make us better. They had, like, a lot of really solid pitchers. Had good offspeed [pitches]. It helps us get ready for the district games with pitchers like Farragut and Hardin Valley have.”

Fleenor Security Systems, which provides security systems to thousands of East Tennessee residential and commercial customers, has merged with Alarm Systems Group LLC, also known as ASG Security, of Beltsville, Md. Mike Fleenor, who founded Fleenor Security Systems at 10446 Cogdill Road, off Dutchtown Road in West Knoxville, in 1983, sold his assets Feb. 12 to Alarm Security Group, but he and his 50 employees will stay on to staff ASG’s first Tennessee office. “We will eventually be marketed under ASG Security’s name,” Fleenor said but added, “We’re still here doing what we have always done.” Fleenor’s merging his company into ASG represents one of ASG’s largest transactions of its type, Joe Nuccio, ASG president and CEO, said. “Fleenor Security Systems’ reputation has earned Mike Fleenor and his company national respect, and ASG is proud to welcome Mike and his employees into our company,” Nuccio said. Over the years, Fleenor said he had received many inquiries but never seriously entertained them

“We’ve been blessed over the past 32 years,” Fleenor added. “We have grown to be the largest security company in East Tennessee, so I had to look outside to find a company to merge with. “I was looking for someone who would take care of our customers
and employees, and ASG absolutely fit that better than anyone else I was talking with,” he said. “I came to the conclusion that ASG was the right company, and this is the right time for me to make the decision. “[ASG’s] philosophy is operating many offices, or branches, instead of a large company,” Fleenor added. “They didn’t send people to operate this branch. All of our employees were retained. I wasn’t interested in a merger where my employees would be displaced.” Fleenor said the merger would provide more support, products and services to its customers. “ASG, because of its large size, will be able to offer products we didn’t have before,” he said, adding the merger will mean local customers will still be locally serviced. Fleenor said he expects ASG to use Knoxville to expand its presence within the state and region. “Every acquisition they have done in the past 10 or 12 years, they have grown the company exponentially in the next four to five years,” he said. ASG, founded in 2002, employs more than 1,200 people in 27 offices in 12 states.

Farragut APAC presents ‘Clue’ Dark comedy production runs April 16, 18-19
■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
A dark comedy multiple-murder mystery, the origins of which are a board game, highlights Farragut High School’s Admiral’s Performing Arts Company spring production: “Clue.” Adapted from the 1980s movie by FHS theater teacher Lea McMahan, Clue is a roughly 90minute production (one act). Show dates are Thursday, Saturday and Sunday, April 16, 18-19, in the school’s Ferguson Theater (upstairs inside the main school building). Show times are 7:30 p.m., Thursday and Saturday, and 3 p.m., Sunday. Cost is $7 for everybody. “In terms of the other plays I’ve done before, “Clue” has a lot more character development and it’s very stylistic. Personally I really like it,” sophomore Kassidy Heard, playing Wadsworth the Butler, said. “And the fact that I get to be British is really cool. “It is definitely a new character,” Heard added. “Taking on a lead as a sophomore is very, very fun and challenging. Staying in character and having an accent the whole time, it’s a great new challenge. … It’s originally a boy’s part, but we had it gender-
bended to be a girl.” “There’s a lot of lines. Poor Kassidy, she has the majority of it: paragraphs that she has to memorize,” McMahan said. “It’s only a cast of 14, but we’re all really close now,” junior Madison Haynes, playing Miss Scarlett, said. “Miss Scarlett is very sly … she’s very charismatic, I guess. She’s kind of flirty. It’s definitely a different character because it’s comedy and I’m used to more dramatic.” Senior Jackson Hahn plays Mr. Boddy. “The biggest difference in my role is that in a previously production I did die, but in this one I die but I have to be on stage for the entire production laying motionless,” Hahn said. “It’s extremely difficult because if your nose itches or anything happens, too bad.” Also different for Hahn, “The comedies I’ve done previously have been kind of a dry humor, whereas the comedy in Mr. Boddy is just kind of more action-based, which I’m not used to,” he said. “Ms. Mac has done an amazing job [adapting] the script and directing us,” Haynes said. “We’ve all worked hard to get where we’re at right now.” See CLUE on Page 6B

A little more than 100 members of 41 garden clubs in District 4, Knoxville, of Tennessee Federation of Garden Clubs heralded in the first day of spring with a district meeting in Farragut. Dixie Highway Garden Club in the Farragut area hosted the meeting Friday, March 20, in Fox Den Country Club. “We love these meetings,” Dixie Highway Garden Club president Linda Ford said. “Once a year we
get together at Fox Den to have programs, take care of business and enjoy the wonderful camaraderie. “It’s a wonderful way to keep our clubs connected,” Ford added. “It is a very nice gathering of all the garden clubs in the district,” Connie Wallace, DHGC member, said. “It’s exciting to see everyone come in excited,” Caroline Woodring of Village Green Garden Club added. “It’s always a pleasure to be with District 4,” Ann McCormick,
state president of TFGC, said. “It was a great meeting, and the members do so much for the community.” Ford said the state organization, which has more than 300 members, is broken down into four districts. The other districts are District 1, Memphis; District 2, Nashville; District 3, Chattanooga, she said. “Everything seemed to be moving along,” Diane Decker, district director, said. “We got a lot done today.” See DISTRICT 4 on Page 4B

A new under-the covers morning routine! Don’t you just love the idea behind the rosary? My granny was Catholic and she taught me the rosary prayers and I loved hearing her recite them as she felt each bead. When she handled her sacred strand she did it with such hum- Pam ility and Young she treatMake it ed it like it was a gift Fun! from God. I’m not Catholic, but I’ve always loved the idea of letting the beads in a necklace remind us to be thankful and to praise God for our blessings. That’s how I came up with the idea to use my feet like a rosary! Why not? So combining the This Little Piggy Went to Market poem we perpetrated on our kids, I decided to start a new morning routine using my toes. Here’s what I came up with, and I’ll tell you what happened after I did my rosary toes. Starting with my big toe of my right foot, I held each toe the same way Granny held her rosary beads, and said the following: This little piggy loves her life This little piggy is delight This little piggy speaks kindness This little piggy doesn’t fight And this little piggy is thankful she has another whole day to live! After I did my right foot, I did
the same thing with my left one. When I finished with my left foot, the thought came, ‘Why stop there?’ So I took a hold of both my feet (I was still under the covers) and I thanked them for all the work they do and will do. Then I moved my hands to my ankles and thanked God for the miracle of swivel. Then I put my hands on my knees and blessed them for their astounding ability to allow me to bend. I imagined what it’d be like to walk around stiff legged and was filled with love for these little marvels. Next I moved my hands to my hips and praised them for allowing me to have such a cushioned seat. I put my hands on my stomach knowing that what goes on in there is a complete mystery to me, and I’m so thankful that it knows what to do with what I eat and drink. Next I moved to my breasts and thanked them for being there for my children and for being healthy throughout my life in spite of the torture of mammograms. I felt my heart beating and reminded myself of this precious gift of life I’ve been given. Then I took my elbows and thanked them in the same way I’d thanked my knees. Without them I’d be stiff-armed and somebody’d have to feed and dress me. My
wrists came next, then my fingers and knuckles. When my hands came to my head, it was like coming to the cross. Are there any words to thank God for our eyes that see, ears that hear, tongues that speak and taste, a nose that smells and a mind that assists in making it all possible? My body rosary took me five minutes and it has been four hours since I did this new undercover routine and I’m still giddy with joy. It’s a feeling similar to the one I got when I was given a painkiller when my back went out. Oh, I didn’t thank my back! Well, I’ll do that tomorrow morning. I hope you’ll give this new under-the-covers routine a try. You’ll not only be moved to praise your miraculous body and be thankful, you’ll get a good stretch and you will have set a positive tone for the entire day not allowing those devilish negative thoughts to creep in! For more from Pam Young go to www.cluborganized.com. You’ll find many musings, videos of Pam in the kitchen preparing delicious meals, videos on how to get organized, ways to lose weight and get your finances in order, all from a reformed SLOB’s point of view.
Q: My neighbor told me that she thinks my cat looks jaundiced. I’m not even sure what that means. He seems to feel fine. Should I be worried? A.M., Farragut A: Jaundice, or icterus, is a condition in which the skin appears yellow. In dogs and cats, Stephanie this is most readily seen Myers Ask in areas where there is the Vet less fur: the inside of the ear flap, the whites of the eyes, or the gums in the mouth. Jaundice occurs when there is the excessive pigment in bile (called bililirubin) in the blood. This extra pigment causes the yellow discoloration. This can happen for many different reasons, including liver disease, gall bladder disease, and severe damage to red blood cells. Causes include bacterial infections, viral infections, gall stones, liver failure, or cancer. There are different medications that can also dogs or cat to appear jaundiced. Remember, jaundice is a symptom, not a disease. It lets us know that something else is going, something potentially serious. So if your cat is indeed jaundiced, you should see your veterinarian. He or she will exam your cat and discuss further testing if necessary. If your have questions about your pet, you may email them to lenoircityac@gmail.com

is your child is able to go to high school until age 21. My child, Cobey, he cannot live independently, he just does not have the skills,” Thomas, a board member with Breakthrough Corporation, added. Breakthrough provides seven adult housing units in South Knoxville for autistic adults age 21 and older featuring aroundthe-clock supervision. “Fifteen years ago I think it was, several parents in this area knew this was something parents were going to face. ‘What in the world do we do with our kids when they turn 21?’” Thomas added. “’They stay at home and we stay at home with them, we can’ t work.’” Breakthrough founders “came up with this idea that we need a place for these young adults to go to either live or get taken care of during the day,” Thomas said. “You’ve got to remember my son, Cobey, is non-verbal, so he can’t tell me, ‘Dad this place is no good or they mistreated me.’ So I have to really feel comfortable with the facility I’m sending my son to.” Breakthrough “serves a great
need,” Thomas added. “I think the statistics now say one out of every 80 boys is affected by autism.” A financial advisor for UBS, Thomas also is in charge of Autism Breakthrough Golf Tournament, which is held each September at Willow Creek Golf Club. “I started the golf tournament, and this will be 14 years,” he said about the 2015 event, “a four-person modified scramble” set for Sept. 28. “Right around $900,000” has been raised through Autism Breakthrough Golf Tournament, Thomas said. “And that’s split equally between the Autism Society of East Tennessee and Breakthrough Corporation.” “The state of Tennessee is trying to cut back [funding] so these fundraisers, the run and the golf tournament, is well needed,” he added. Also a board member of The Autism Society of East Tennessee, Thomas has served on Breakthrough’s board “since Cobey was 3 or 4.” While Breakthrough “services adults with autism,” ASET is “more toward [autistic] children in East Tennessee,” Thomas said.

“We have representatives from the Dogwood Arts Festival here because we are going to have a flower show at the House and Garden Show in February of next year in conjunction with Dogwood Arts Festival,” Wallace said. Another guest of the meeting included Jen Sheehan, executive director of Random Acts of Kindness, which recycles people’s vases and floral arrangements, which are then donated to nursing homes, rehabilitation centers and other locations, Wallace said. A highlight of the meeting was the endorsement of a state president-elect and new district director and election of district officers. The actual election for state president-elect and district director will take place during the state convention in April, Kathy Donaldson, parliamentarian and Lenoir City Garden Club member, said. Members endorsed Cindy Hintz of Shady Oaks Garden Club as state president-elect and Lisa Phipps Smoky Mountain Garden Club as district director.

I think the food itself is certainly a draw.” Rotarian John Germ of Chattanooga, who has been cho-
sen as Rotary International president beginning July 1, 2016 according to Bryson, “Will be guest of honor … that’s quite unique,” he added. “That’s going to add to the event quite a bit.” Though Germ is not scheduled to give a formal speech according to Bryson, “We expect him to say a few words, certainly greet the folks and be available for pictures and conversation.” Proceeds benefit Farragut High School scholarships, PSCC scholarships, World of Rotary Day and “other RCF charity projects” according to the club’s press release. Looking for a new fundraising
idea according to Bryson, RCF proceeds could grow from roughly “$9,000 to $10,000” annually raised from spelling bees in recent years to a goal estimated between $10,000 and $20,000 for

deathnotices • PURSER, Jean, a longtime resident of Knoxville, passed away on March 31, 2015. She was born on March 2, 1930 in Gastonia, North Carolina, daughter of Truman and Lula Poole. She married James Purser on December 16, 1950, and together they moved to Fairbanks, Alaska, during James’ military service there. They relocated to Knoxville in 1961, where they raised a daughter, Janice, and son, Ken. Jean was a devoted wife and loving mother, who always thought of her family before herself, and who was always ready with a bad pun to put smiles on our faces. She was an active member and volunteer at Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church until her health declined in later years. She enjoyed evenings at home with her family, watching classic movies with her daughter Janice, dining out at her favorite restaurants, and, of course, ice cream. She will be very dearly missed. The family received friends on Friday April 3, 2015 from 1:30 until 2:00 at Berry Highland Memorial Funeral Home and the funeral services followed at 2:00. The interment followed in Berry
Highland Memorial Cemetery. Condolences may be offered at www.highlandmemorialknoxville.com • THOMAS, Gregory Herbert (Greg), passed away March 30, 2015, at UT Medical Center surrounded by his family and friends after a courageous battle with cancer at the age of 55. Greg is survived by his sons, Sam and Ad-am Thomas; best friend and mother of his children, Diane Thomas; parents, Roy and Pat Thomas; brother, Gary Thomas; sister, Joy Thomas; and numerous nieces and nephews. Greg was born July 26, 1959, in Elk City, OK, and graduated from Farragut High School in 1977. He attended Tennessee Tech University on baseball scholarship where he set many
Thomas
batting records that still stand in his name. He found his true calling as a massage therapist in 2007, opening his own massage therapy business where he helped to heal countless people across the country. Greg’s passion and greatest accomplishment in life was raising his boys, Sam and Adam. He was a hands-on, fun loving, devoted Dad that took great pride in everything they did. He shared with them his love of sports, especially baseball and coached many of their teams over the years. Greg was a dedicated, loyal and fierce friend to many and loved by all who were blessed to know him. He had a very witty sense of humor and lived life to the fullest. The family will receive friends on Thursday, April 2, 5-7 p.m. at Click Funeral Home Farragut Chapel, with a Celebration of Life to follow. All are welcome to attend and celebrate Greg's life. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to: The Cancer Society of East Tennessee. Click Funeral Home Farragut Chapel, 11915 Kingston Pike, is serving the Thomas family. www.clickfh.com

Coldwell Banker Wallace and Wallace, Realtors®
Luxury property sales require special consideration
KNOXVILLE, TN…If you’re considering the sale of your luxury home or estate it may interest you to know that out of approximately 85,000 Coldwell Banker sales associates in 48 countries only eight percent can call themselves vetted elite “Previews Luxury Property Specialists.” In Knoxville and surrounding counties there are only seven Previews Luxury Property Specialists. The Previews designation is awarded to those individuals with proven track records of success in luxury real estate sales and who exemplify Previews International’s value of service, confidentiality and skillful negotiation. On average, Previews Property Specialists handle over $100,000,000 in luxury home sales every day. The Previews program was established in 1933 by the visionary, Henderson Talbot, who, ahead of his time, redefined luxury real estate marketing by capturing prized estate homes on film. In 1980, the
Previews program was acquired by Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC. The union of a luxury marketing leader with one of America’s oldest real estate brands established a precedent of discreetly serving the client’s best interests above all else—a powerful advantage that affluent buyers and sellers enjoy to this day. In Knoxville and surrounding counties a property listed at $500,000 or above could qualify as a Coldwell Banker Previews Property. However, the price isn’t the only criteria that must be met to qualify as a Previews Property. Your luxury Previews Specialist can determine if your home qualifies by taking a quick tour of your home or estate.
Specialist is recommended. Tim and Melissa Smith are Real Estate Advisors and Coldwell Banker Previews International Luxury Property Specialists with Coldwell Banker
