Book Fest fills park with books and such ■

TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com

Families from Farragut and the surrounding area took advantage of the sunshine to turn out for the 2015 Book Fest for Children.

The event, hosted by Farragut Arts Council and Knox County Public Library Farragut Branch, drew 450 children and 13 local children’s book authors, Saturday, April 11, in Founders Park at Campbell Station, Chelsey Riemann, Farragut public relations coordinator, said.

“The event was perfect,” Lauren Cox, Farragut Special Events and program coordinator, said. “Everyone seemed to enjoy the storytelling, crafts, authors and entertainment.

“We were very pleased with the collaboration between the Knox County Library’s book sale and the Book Fest event, as both programs benefit from one another,” Cox said. “We look forward to partnering with them in

the future so that both events continue to be a great success.”

“So many fun things to do,” Shelly Metzdorf of Farragut said.

“This is our third year coming.

It’s a great activity for kids to come out and play, listen to stories and color.”

Children could find books at the library’s book sale then head over to the park to watch a magic show by Michael Messing, listen to storytellers, meet authors, read with a Ruff Reader dog from Human Animal Bond in Tennessee and enjoy arts and crafts.

“I love it,” Melissa Glover of Farragut said. “We come every year because anything that you can make my kids read is awesome. I appreciate they’re doing it.”

Lily Hughes, 6, said she liked reading because she likes to figure out things.

“We came last year, thought it was awesome and so we came back again,” Kellie Hudgens of See BOOK FEST on Page 2A

Mayor Burchett’s constituent meetings keep homegrown feel ■ TAMMY CHEEK

tcheek@farragutpress.com

About a half dozen Farragut area residents stopped by to chat and voice concerns to Knox County Mayor Tim Burchett as part of his regular constituent meetings.

Burchett said he hosts these district constituent meetings twice a year. He is having 10 meetings this month. One such meeting was Monday, May 16, when the county mayor met with Farragut area residents at Frank R. Strang Senior Center, 109 Lovell Heights Road.

“Generally, folks just come out to meeting on constituent issues, and they prefer one-onone contact,” Burchett said. “We meet at senior centers because of the ease of access, they are safe and everyone knows where their senior centers are.

“I get a lot of satisfaction out of these meetings,” he said. “I am term-limited, and we made a commitment to meet with these people and we are going to keep it.

“What makes me feel good is that people approach me on different issues because they know I care and will do something about them, which I try to do,” Burchett said.

At the March 16 meeting, he said, “I had a lady who wanted to talk about sidewalks, a policy issue. We are trying to address that.”

Burchett added he also gets a lot of concerns about the schools.

On the other hand, he said some want to shoot the breeze.

During one of Knox County Mayor Tim Burchett’s constituents meetings, Mark Jones shared a photo of the county mayor’s late father, Charlie Burchett, taken during a May 2008 Honor Air trip to the U.S. Air Force Memorial in Washington, D.C. Honor Air participants in the photo, from left, are George Broberg, Burchett, Edgar Bowen and Roy Heatherly.

“I’ve had people in the past bring me cookies,” he said. “They just want to talk. They knew my mom and dad, and they want to talk about old times.”

On another occasion, Burchett said, a man said his son publishes four different magazines and brought in copies of the magazines to show the county mayor.

“Someone brought in a picture of my deceased father, a World War II veteran,” Burchett said.

“He went on an Honor Air trip with my dad. I had never seen [the photo] before.”

While he may see only a few at some meetings, he may see more at others.

“We had one [meeting] in Karns and had 18 to 20 people,” Burchett said.

The mayor added he does not generally see a lot of people at these meetings, however, because he is out daily, eating lunch at schools or meeting with different groups, and he encounters constituents there. “[The meetings are] not real sexy, and a lot of politicians run from those sort of things,” Burchett said but added, “I gravitate toward them. They are the purest form of democracy.

“Regardless, they pay my salary, and I make time for them,” he said.

New sidewalks link communities ■

TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com

With the budget process under way for Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen, they are looking at the Town’s sidewalks and walking paths as part of the Capital Investment Program funding.

Meanwhile, work is underway.

The first week of April, Farragut Public Works crew started extending a sidewalk alongside Grigsby Chapel Road at Grigsby Chapel United Methodist Church to St. Charles Place Subdivision with remaining funds in the current budget, Chris Brown, Farragut’s road foreman, said.

As the Board and Town staff look at future projects, Darryl Smith, Town engineer, said cur-

rently there are three sidewalk/greenway connectors under consideration. One of the proposed projects would be the Kingston Pike sidewalk at Willow Creek Golf Course. Smith said this project would involve construction of a sidewalk with a curb and gutter on the south side of Kingston Pike from about 1,000 feet east of Old Stage Road to Virtue Road.

“Completion of this important link will allow connection of all sidewalks and greenways in the Old Stage/McFee Road area with the rest of the Town,” he said.

“The Town has just been notified by [Tennessee Department of Transportation] that the project has received environmental See SIDEWALKS on Page 4A

Union Road quandary ■ TAMMY CHEEK

tcheek@farragutpress.com

Farragut Municipal Planning Commission’s urgency to widen Union Road has left at a potential development project up in the air.

Representatives from Horne Properties Inc. asked Farragut Municipal Planning Commission, during its meeting Thursday, March 19, to amend the Town’s Comprehensive Land Use Plan for a 30.13-acre property at 12639 Kingston Pike and change the designation from medium and low density to commercial.

Doug Horne, president of Horne Properties Inc. and owner of Republic Newspapers Inc, parent company of farragutpress, said HPI has an option to buy the property from the Swan family.

John Baker, director of engineering and construction with HPI, said HPI would like to develop a retail development on the front part of the property and an assisted living facility on the back.

“The town of Farragut likes retail,” Horne said. “It gets 65 to 70 percent of its revenues from Sales Taxes.”

Commissioners Ron Honken and Ed Whiting said they were concerned about Union Road being so narrow and added the road needed improvements.

Horne said a requirement to improve Union Road would be cost-prohibitive.

“The problem is if we get this property zoned to commercial and they require us to upgrade Union Road, we can’t do it,” Horne said.

The improvements would consist of widening the road, putting in utilities and a bridge culvert over Little Turkey Creek, and those improvements could cost between $1.5 million and $2 million, Horne said, adding, “We can’t accept that.

We’ll just have to drop it.”

Mark Shipley, Community Development director, said the staff also is concerned about rezoning all of the property commercial. He said he would like to see some transition, possibly keeping the northern end of the property low density.

The issue would come up for a vote at the Commission’s meeting Thursday, April 16.

On another matter, Kim Knott and her family are looking to subdivide the property her late father bequeathed them at 12422 Union Road, and requested the property be rezoned from R-2 to R-1 Open Space Residential.

The property is a 25-acre tract off a section of Union Road and on the east side of Everett Road, Shipley said.

“Given the land’s physical characteristics, the applicant is requesting the rezoning to R1OSR zoning district,” he said.

Since the request was listed as a workshop item, Commission did not vote. Knott asked for a special called meeting. The Commission voted to defer the item to a future meeting.

In other business, Commissioners: • Voted unanimously to approve the final plat for Townhomes at Wentworth subdivision off Old Stage Road at Willow Ridge Way for which the applicants, Benchmark Associates Inc., asked that a private road be declared public.

• Voted unanimously to allow Leon Lawson, architect for The Overlook at Campbell Station apartments at 820 N. Campbell Station Road, to use stone instead of brick on the façade.

• Voted unanimously to rezone portions of Lot 3 of Smith property at 11739 Turkey Creek Road from R-1 to R-1 Open Space Mixed Residential Overlay to clean up the property lines.

Book Fest From page 1A

Village Green subdivision said.

Jack and Lori Meece of West Knoxville brought their 19month-old son, Robert, to Book Fest.

“It’s great for his age,” Lori Meece said. “We came out here so he could be with other kids, get fresh air and he loves books.”

While watching her daughter, Savannah Lester, have her face pained, Heather Lester said, “Eventually, we are going to see what kind of kids’ books they have. We came to have a fun day out.”

“We’ve been here every year

since it first started,” Rena Patel of Farragut said, adding what drew her family were all the different activities available, that the Book Fest was kid-friendly and the books they can come across.

Francesca Latham said she brought her children to give them a new experience and have a nice day out taking advantage of what Book Fest had to offer.

Among the authors, Shawn Cline said she participated in last year’s Book Fest. She said as the event was for children, so she wanted to participate.

Another author, Adele Roberts, also attended last year and returned with her

“Adventures of Sammy” books. ”I always enjoy seeing the reaction of parents and children,” Roberts said. “I love Farragut.”

Besides meeting authors, children heard stories from Hardin Valley Academy performing arts students, who donned storybook costumes and read to children.

Youngsters ran up to the students to have their photos made with Cinderella, Belle of Beauty and the Beast, Peter Pan and others.

Elsewhere in the park, storytellers such as Laurie Fisher, Lynn Hinkernell and Linda Upton Hill also entertained families.

671-TALK BOMA approves zoning

• It seems like every time I look at the farragutpress another change in zoning to allow more multifamily units is plastered across the front page. I understand the need for affordable housing in Farragut; however, Campbell Station Road, Grigsby Chapel Road and Kingston Pike are already very heavily congested. I don’t what the professional traffic studies are doing or where they are getting their information, but I live two miles west of Farragut Primary School and it should not take me 20 minutes to get to the Interstate on a weekday morning, but it does. If I don’t time my trip around the road work, the road commuters and the school drop off lines, not to mention when they do the golf tournament, anyway, I often find myself driving several miles west of where I live to get to Watt Road so I can take the Interstate to get to downtown Knoxville just so I can avoid that whole

mess along Campbell Station Road. It seems like there should be parcels of land somewhere available for these developers somewhere outside the already heavy traffic loop. We have multifamily units that should be available on Outlets Drive that should be available soon; anyway, that’s what I read. We have other existing multifamily units all over Farragut and really the bottom line is someone just needs to ask the Town Board who exactly is going to benefit from the building and renting of all these multifamily units. What I’m more concerned about is what impact they’re going to have on our community in the long run.

Sidewalks

Another project is planned at Old Stage to Kingston Pike at Everett Road. Smith said this project would include an 8-footwide asphalt greenway from Old Stage Road near Way Station Trail, across an open space, owned by Old Stage Hills Homeowners’ Association and privately owned property, to Kingston Pike.

“The intent is to provide a connection through the western barrel of the triple box bridge over Little Turkey Creek to the north

side of Kingston Pike, where the greenway will turn to the west and climb the slope to meet the sidewalk adjacent to Kingston Pike,” he said.

“The project will provide a needed greenway connector from Old Stage Road, near McFee Road, to Kingston Pike near Everett Road, with the added benefit of a ‘split’ grade [tunnel] crossing of Kingston Pike through the existing bridge over Little Turkey Creek,” Smith said.

This project also is federally

clearance and our consultant will begin final design once we receive notice to proceed.

“The project is federally funded through our Transportation Planning Organization with an 80-20 federal/local cost share,” he added. “At this time, funding is approved based upon a total cost of $1,162,500, though numbers may need to vary as the design is completed.”

Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen gave a green light to a rezoning that would clear up zoning and property lines for a subdivision across from Anchor Park and an adjacent property.

The Board voted unanimously to approve on first reading rezoning a lot on Smith property at 11739 Turkey Creek Road and portions of a lot in Briarstone Subdivision, formerly Villas at Anchor Park, from R-1 to R1/Open Space Mixed Residential Overlay and R-1/OSMR to R-1 respectively during its meeting Thursday, April 9.

Rackley Engineering submitted the rezoning request on behalf of Briarstone Subdivision development.

“This item is related to a subdivision request that was approved by [Farragut Municipal Planning Commission] in Februfunded, through the Town’s Transportation Planning Organization with an 80-20 federal/local cost share, he said.

“At this time, we are waiting for notice to proceed with Environmental Clearances from TDOT,” he said, adding funding is approved based upon a total cost of $550,000, although numbers may need to vary as design is completed and easements are acquired.

ary and which involved the Briarstone Subdivision and the adjacent Smith tract to the west,” Mark Shipley, Community Development director, said.

The rezoning would adapt the zoning lines to match up with the property lines and make the lots more usable, Shipley said.

“As the staff noted when the plat was approved, since the affected properties are in different zoning districts, the minor adjustments to the boundaries also have to be reflected with minor amendments to the zoning map so that the zoning lines would follow the adjusted property lines.

“This is a very minor zoning map amendment request that is basically provided in order to ensure that zoning lines follow property lines,” Shipley said. The Planning Commission also voted unanimously to recommend approval of the rezoning request, and Town staff recommended it.

Outscoring its four opponents a combined 38-7 during two days of action in Second Annual Scott Dean Memorial Classic, going 40, Farragut baseball may have rounded Admirals 11 a critical corner.

Cougars 2 “We actually played well the whole tournament,” said FHS head coach Matt Buckner, whose defending Class AAA state champions began the week 21-3 overall, 8-0 in District 4-AAA. “Did a lot better job in our approach at the plate. Did a good job of hitting some balls back-side. Really, I think, got some things fixed that we needed to clean up a little bit.

“Pitched the ball well and played good defense. Only made about three errors in the whole tournament,” Buckner added.

The Admirals capped off their four games at John Heatherly Field Friday and Saturday, April 10-11, with an 11-2 victory Saturday afternoon versus Holy Cross High School, a Class A (smallest level) school from

Zach Sears, HVA senior third baseman, can’t quite haul in this bunt attempt during the Hawks game with Bearden, resumed from March 26 after a rain delay at HVA and finished at BHS’s Phil Garner Field Monday evening, April 13. The Bulldogs won 6-3.

Grabbing a quick lead proved futile, in two separate games, for Hardin Valley Academy Hawks baseball against District 4-AAA rival Bearden.

A major shift in the district race happened Monday evening, April 13, at BHS's Phil Garner Ballpark, as the Bulldogs completed one comeback effort to win, finishing a suspended game at HVA Bulldogs 6 March 26 Hawks 3 in the fourth inning with a 5-2 lead after trailing 2-0.

Winning that game 6-3, Bearden rallied from a 3-0 deficit against Hawks staff ace and Tennessee Vols signee Will Neely in the regularly scheduled game.

Holding off two Hardin Valley attempts to rally late, the Bulldogs won 4-3. While Bearden improved to 16-7, 8-2 in district, the Hawks fell to 14-9, 5-4.

“Brady competed extremely well for us,” said BHS head coach John Rice about Brady Duncan, Bearden junior, who pitched the final four innings of the suspended game allowing just one unearned run and one infield single — then started the regularly scheduled game and went three innings (three earned runs, four hits, two walks and no strikeouts).

Duncan, who started the March 26 game at HVA, allowed only one earned run, three hits and three walks with five strikeouts in the seven total innings.

“I felt great, but my curveball wasn’t working that good” in the first game, Duncan said. “... But then in the second game I sort of got my curveball back.”

Rice said reliever Nick Adkins (two innings: no runs, hits or walks with two strikeouts in game two) “was absolutely the momentum shifter. Nick just mows through them, allows us to put a couple of runs up.”

While Joe Michalski, HVA head coach, said his team “had moments Bulldogs 4 where we Hawks 3 could have been more compititive,” he added, “At the end of the day, Bearden’s just a darn good team.

“And we’re going through some ups and downs.”

Hawks seniors Greg Valentine and Zach Sears combined to pitch the final 3 2/3 innings of the suspended game. Valentine worked 2.2 innings (one earned run, two hits, three strikeouts) Sears pitched a perfect seventh inning with no strikeouts.

A one-out single by Seth Hunt got things going for HVA in the first inning of Monday's scheduled seven-inning game.

“The ball was a beachball if you ask me,” said Hunt, senior shortstop who ended with three hits in game two.

After Vinny Gambuzza walked, freshman right fielder Ryder Green's two-RBI double down the third base line made it 2-0.

A Dylan Harris solo home run the third inning made it 3-0.

See SWEEP on Page 9A

Farragut made the critical defensive play when it mattered most, while Bearden’s critical defensive play went off the glove of a hustling outfielder.

Jake Hagenow, Admirals sophomore Admirals 2 first baseBulldogs 1 man, found himself on the good side of both plays.

Ending with an out at second base where a Bulldogs baserunner got caught too far off the bag — just when BHS was mounting a one-out, bases-loaded rally against superstar pitcher Patrick Raby — the Admirals hung on for dear life, winning 2-1 during this rivalry showdown at FHS’s John Heatherly Field Thursday, April 9.

“We’re scraping by. Hopefull we’ll get better offensively,” said FHS head coach Matt Buckner, whose team begins this week 213 overall, 8-0 in District 4-AAA. Bearden dropped to 13-5, 6-2 in district after the tough loss.

Hardin Valley Academy’s boys soccer team closed out a grueling 48-hour span with a narrow 1-0 victory over Science Hill Thursday, April 9, at HVA.

“We had two tough backto-back games,” Hardin Valley head coach Mike McLean said. “You never want to play tough back-toback games like that but we had to do it because of the weather.

“We wanted to keep the game against a quality team [in CAK]. We grew up tonight. We’ve played some good teams in our first six games this season but we haven’t been tested like this.”

7th-inning homer, double lift Lady Hawks past BHS ■

KEN LAY Correspondent

Hardin Valley Academy softball player Leslie Beecham got the biggest hit of her season Monday night.

“It felt great to get that hit,” said Beecham, the Lady Hawks junior shortstop who drove in the winning run in Hardin Valley’s 43 District 4-AAA comeback victory over Bearden at Kim Hazelw o o d Lady Hawks 4 F i e l d April 13.

Lady Bulldogs 3 “It definitely felt good because it came at a crucial time. I really want to win the district.”

Beecham’s game-winning double came with two out in the top of the seventh inning and followed a solo home run from junior pitcher Kaleigh Wynne, which knotted the game 3-3.

Wynne’s round-tripper started the inning before Bearden senior ace Dana Steinbacher struck out Olivia LaSorsa.

Mikaela Chavis, HVA’s freshman right fielder, then legged out a bunt single and took second on a throwing error. Chavis advanced to third on a passed ball before Chelsey Texeira struck out, setting the stage for Beecham’s heroics. Beecham’s extra-base hit plated Chavis with the eventual winning run. In the bottom of the frame, Chavis

effort, he was really competitive all night for us,” BHS head coach John Rice said about senior southpaw starter Nick Adkins.

Adkins allowed just four hits and three walks with seven strikeouts in five innings.

“My breaking ball was doing well. ... My two-seam was working, I was getting it away from the hitters,” Adkins said.

Hagenow delivered a two-out, two-RBI double to deep left field, which was almost caught, in the bottom of the fifth inning producing the game’s first two runs.

Junior centerfielder Cole Morgan (who tripled) and senior second baseman Chase Fullington (hit by a pitch) scored.

Raby was sailing along after pitching the final five innings of this suspended game (heading to the bottom of the second) Monday evening, April 6.

Working out of a two-out jam in the third inning — a two out double from centerfielder Connor Cameron and a single to right field by shortstop Bryson Ford — Raby allowed just two other baserunners (a walk plus an infield hit by Ford) until the seventh.

Inducing a flyout to begin the seventh, Raby then allowed a series of two-strike hits: single to centerfield by Brady Duncan, a

walk to Josh Smith and a single to right-centerfield (on an 0-2 count) to Brandon Trammell loading the bases.

A sacrifice fly to centerfield by Clark Poynter cut the lead to 2-1, but Morgan’s throw to the plate was cut off by Hagenow, who saw the Bulldogs baserunner well off

second base trying to retreat and fired to Fullington at second, who chased down the runner for the tag-out halfway toward third base ending the game.

“I heard Nico [Mascia, FHS catcher] yelling, ‘cut three, cut three,’ so I caught it and I saw him stop and so I knew we had

Raby (3-2 record entering the week) allowed five hits and two walks in his five innings of work with four strikeouts. “I wasn’t the best stuff I’ve ever had, but it was good enough to win,” Raby said.

“Raby’s a competitor, that guy’s

awesome,” Rice said. “I thought our guys did a good job fighting him, though.”

Only two other Ads reached second base the entire evening against Adkins, including Chandler Chambers with a single and stolen base in the sixth.

Fullington had the only other hit, a one-out single in the third.

the Hilltoppers was perhaps a gross understatement. Science Hill (11-2) is one of the top squads in northeast Tennessee.

The two elite teams battled through a scoreless first half and the match remained scoreless until HVA’s Cameron Schneider chipped a shot that found the back of the Hilltoppers’ net in the 54th minute.

“I knew that we really need a goal so I chipped it and it went in,” Schneider said. “That was a tough one. This week, we had two hard games.

“Those were the two best teams that we’ve played all season and they’re probably two of the best teams that we’ll see all season.”

After taking the lead, the Hawks (8-0), had to withstand a surge from the Hilltoppers, who refused to go quietly. Hardin Valley goalkeepers Jeremy Wise (a junior who played the first half) and sophomore Andrew Foster, who made some big saves after halftime, combined to record the shutout.

“We have two great ’keepers and that’s why they split time,” McLean said.

Early on in the match, it was apparent that goals wouldn’t

come easily for either team but Schneider took a pass from Shawn Foster and chipped in the lone tally of the match.

“Cameron is a special player and he just seems to always find a way to score,” McLean said.

“Shawn can always get him the ball.”

After Schneider scored, it was up to the defense and Andrew Foster (Shawn’s brother) to keep the Hilltoppers at bay. The younger Foster did just that despite having a few anxious moments late in the game.

“That was a ton of pressure, especially late in the game,” Andrew Foster said. “I just want-

ed to make sure that everybody knew what they were supposed to be doing.

Andrew faced three late quality scoring chances from Science Hill and made the stops he had to make to enable HVA to keep its perfect record intact.

Wise also made three saves in the opening half, a period which saw both squads miss some chances.

Hardin Valley’s Sheroze Akhter narrowly missed on a shot in the eighth minute. Schneider had a shot hit the crossbar in the 16th minute before Ian McNitt missed an opportunity to give the Hawks the lead just before the end of the

first half.

The Hilltoppers had a chance to score in the 34th minute but a header from Alec Jacobs bounced off the crossbar.

Science Hill head coach David Strickland said that he knew the match would be low-scoring.

“I knew that a goal would have to be special and that one was,” he said. “I want to say that it was a fluke, the way it went in.

“This was a great game. They played hard and we did too.

Unfortunately for us, we just came up on the wrong end but I think we’ll see them again [in the Sectional Playoffs],” Strickland added.

Scott’s Classic

Lady Ads reach tourney quarterfinals at Gibbs

From page 5A

Individually during the Classic, “[Duncan] Pence hit three or four home runs this week,” Buckner said about his junior shortstop. “Cole Morgan [junior centerfielder, lead-off hitter] swung it well all week. We had a lot of guys that swung it well.”

On the mound versus Holy Cross, junior southpaw starter Jacob Naumoff pitched four innings, (two earned runs, four hits, one walk, two strikeouts).

“He did a good job, threw a lot of strikes,” Buckner said.

A first inning RBI single from Jake Hagenow, sophomore first baseman, scored Pence, who singled, tying the game 1-1.

Farragut broke it wide open in the third inning, scoring seven times. After Morgan’s leadoff triple and a misjudged fly ball allowing another baserunner to score one run, Fullington’s RBI single made it 3-1.

Hagenow’s second RBI single single pushed the lead to 4-1.

Nico Mascia, senior catcher/designated hitter, added an RBI single. “Our pitching and our defense is so phenomenal right now. Luckily, that has carried us.

When our bats get going our potential is just unlimited. I definitely think we got kick-started this week,” Mascia said.

ing it 7-1 before Morgan’s second extra base hit of the inning, and RBI triple, increased the lead to 81. Pence blasted a solo homer in the fourth. Mascia added an infield hit. Painter singled and scored on Morgan’s RBI single in the fifth.

Morgan scored on Carmelo Venero’s infield single making it 11-2.

Answers from the eye doctor

Q:

What is Retinopathy of Prematurity?

Southeastern Retina Associates

Dr. James H. Miller, Jr. Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is an eye disease that occurs in some prematurely born infants. Infants at risk for ROP include those born more prematurely, especially those with a birthweight of 1500 grams or less.

At risk infants should be screened for ROP beginning 4 - 6 weeks after birth. An Ophthalmologist, specializing in diseases of the retina, can diagnose ROP during an examination of the baby's eyes in a hospital's neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) or nursery.

Blood vessels in the eye normally finish developing in the last few weeks before birth. Premature infants, however, leave the protective uterus before blood vessels of the eye have had a chance to fully develop. The infants are then exposed to elements, such as variable blood oxygen levels, and light and temperature changes. These factors may interfere with the normal development of blood vessels in the eye and cause ROP. Early stages of ROP do not require any treatment.

If ROP advances, laser treatment is used to eliminate the abnormal blood vessels. Southeastern Retina physicians check all at risk premature babies for ROP at the University of Tennessee Medical Center and East TN Children’s Hospital.

A quarterfinal exit from the Gibbs Invitational couldn’t dampen spirits for Farragut High School’s softball team Saturday afternoon, April 11.

“We played more consistently this weekend than we have all year,” Lady Admirals’ head coach David Moore said after his team was elimiLady Bears 2 nated by Lady Admirals 1 Mt. Juliet in a 2-1 loss at Caswell Park. “We came in having lost two tough district games.

“We pretty much got contributions from everybody, but we have to be more consistent with the bat.”

The Lady Ads (11-8-1) fell behind the Lady Bears in the bottom of the third inning when Mt. Juliet, which lost to Maryville 7-2 in the tournament championship game Saturday, scored a pair of unearned runs when Farragut committed an error.

The Lady Bears plated runs when Kristen Hammer reached on FHS’s defensive miscue with two outs. Mt. Juliet right fielder Tiffany Cargile (who reached on a fielder’s choice) and Desiree Kasper, who doubled earlier in the frame, scored on the play to

give the Lady Beard a 2-0 lead.

Mt. Juliet pitcher Savannah Sandeo was masterful early as her rise ball kept Farragut’s hitters off balance early.

“She was throwing a rise and it was tough to hit,” sLady Admirals’ second baseman Madison Etter said. “But this weekend got our intensity back and hopefully, this will prepare us for some tough district games that we Lady Admirals 4 h a v e Lady Knights 3 coming up and the [district] tournament].”

Farragut got a two-out single from Lexee Lamoree in the first inning before Sandeo retired seven consecutive hitters.

Sandeo finished the contest with 12 strikeouts.

But Farragut’s bats came alive in the top of the fourth.

Shortstop Niki Slone reached on an infield single and advanced to second when Lamoree, the Lady Ads’ catcher, legged out a bunt single. Both runners advanced when FHS successfully executed a double steal.

Slone then scored when Mary Claire Coyne grounded to second to make the score 2-1.

“She does the little things that don’t necessarily show up in the box score. But she’s just so consistent for a freshman.”

The Lady Hawks (18-8 overall, 7-3 in the district) made the big plays but HVA fell behind early when the Lady Bulldogs plated a pair of runs in the bottom of the third inning.

Connor Cameron sparked a Bulldogs rally in the third. His one-out single was followed by Bryson Ford's sharp single to center and Kyle Porritt's RBI single down the right field line.

David Beam's RBI infield single, off Neely's glove, cut the lead to 3-2. Brock Vaughn's RBI groundout tied the game. “We had to take quality at bats and be patient at the plate,” Beam said.

Bearden's eventual winning run came in the fifth. Porritt led off being hit by a pitch before Beam's double to right field put runners at second and third with none out. Porritt, who had two hits, scored on a wild pitch.

Clark Poynter also singled.

Sydney Dukes then popped up to House, Bearden’s catcher, before Wynne tied the game with a tworun homer off Steinbacher, one of Knoxville’s elite hurlers.

“We got some clutch hits,” Wynne said. “They came to our place a few weeks ago and we got beat. ... We scouted Dana. We knew she was good but I don’t think we hit her quite as well as we wanted to, but I’m excited about this and we’ve just got to keep pushing.”

Steinbacher, who had 13 strikeouts, was again at the top of her game. “She threw great again,” BHS head coach Leonard Sams said. “We made a couple of mistakes against a great hitter and we paid for it both times.”

Bearden regained the lead 3-2 in the sixth. House’s infield single and Schustrick’s sacrifice bunt preceded an RBI double by sophomore second baseman Sadie Coons.

Farragut residents Bryan and Kate Stone are starting a new online business, Southern Bella Boutique, out of their home.

Bryan Stone said they are looking to have the boutique’s ecommercial site live by the end of April or early May. “But, most likely, we will have some shows prior to May,” he added. “We [purchased] our first inventory March 26.

“We are incredibly excited, and we both worked at large companies, so the prospects of entrepreneurship are exciting,” Stone said. “It’s been one of our goals for a long time.”

Southern Bella Boutique’s site will offer primarily women’s apparel and accessories. Women can find a variety of styles, including cocktail dresses, on the site.

“One of our goals is to reach out to women’s organizations and sororities and bring the product to them,” Stone said.

“We will have pop-up shows and

host cocktail parties and socials, where people can shop and purchase merchandise.

“We will also have invitational shows at remote locations,” he said.

The idea came about because of the couple’s experience, he said.

“My wife has experience in sales, marketing and some background in fashion, and I have experience in retail,” Stone said.

“So, we thought it would be a great opportunity to own our own business and to support one of our favorite charities, CASA.” Court-Appointed Special Advocates for Children is a network of 951 community-based programs in the United States that recruit, train and support citizen volunteers. These volunteers are appointed by judges to watch over and serve as an advocate for abused and neglected children, according to the national CASA website.

“We have been friends for at least 36 years,” she said. “Our boys were in preschool together.”

“Back then, we plunged into swimming lessons; now we are plunging into a business,” Misenheimer said.

Johnston moved to Farragut in 1968 while Misenheimer moved to the community in 1976.

“We were talking a few months ago,” Johnston added. “We opened one of my cabinets, and have all these beautiful accessories for the home, and Carlin made a comment that we should just get a booth at Homespun.

“I had thought the same thing a week before and had not shared that with her,” Johnston said. “We both, apparently, were on the same wavelength that day.”

“Carlin has quite a few collectibles, antique glassware, she has collected and has been handed down to her,” Johnston added.

“As for me, I have already begun to do lots of things for my granddaughter, so I had all these cute pillows that little girls love with

all the Disney characters and whatever.”

Johnston said she and Misenheimer decided to do totes for girls of all ages.

“They are very colorful and very cute,” Johnston said.

This is not Johnston’s first business venture. For years she operated her own design business, Creative Accessories, until the death of her husband.

Meanwhile, Misenheimer was in the banking business for years.

“It’s great renewing special friendships,” Johnston said.

Pease’s Masters week experience special ■

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

Taking in the unique scenery and atmosphere of Augusta National Golf Club during preparations for The Masters, which always includes the world’s top golfers, Gary Pease said he “had tremendously high expectations, and the actual experience way exceeded my expectations.”

Pease, a Farragut resident and avid golf fan, won a lottery that allowed himself and three others to visit Augusta National during Masters week Wednesday, April 8. One highlight was seeing legend Jack Nicklaus’ media-celebrated hole-in-one at No. 4 during the Masters’ annual Par 3 nine-hole tournament.

“I didn’t look until the crowd at No. 4 started reacting, and so I looked and saw the ball roll into the hole. I was able to get a picture of him taking the ball out of the hole,” Pease said about he and his group, who were stationed at No. 3 hole where Nicklaus and fellow past Majors champions Gary Player and Ben Crenshaw all birdied.

“Seeing those three old timers for a guy as old as I am was a real thrill,” he said. “… We also saw Tom Watson.”

This up close view of Masters week for Pease, his sons, Doug

and Brad Pease, plus son-in-law, Travis McCurry, also put them within a few feet of more PGA golfing greatness, Tiger Woods, along with superstar Phil Mickelson and the world No. 1ranked player, Rory McIlroy.

They were among dozens of other top PGA players participating in the Par 3 tournament, playing a practice round on the Augusta National course and practicing on the driving range.

“We saw so many great players it was incredible,” Pease said, which also included Ernie Els and eventual 2015 Masters champion Jordan Spieth.

“A good number of” competitive PGA players, including Woods, also play the Par 3 event.

“We saw Tiger Woods, he was playing with his friend, Mark O’Meara. [Woods] pared the hole that we watched,” he added. “… The gallery’s right on top of the green. We were 10 or 15 feet away from them.”

Taking in practice rounds “on the back nine” holes at Augusta National, “We walked it backwards [from No. 18 to No. 10] so we could see more groups” playing, Pease said.

“We spent a lot of time at Amen Corner,” Pease added about the famous nickname given to course holes No. 11 See PEASE on Page 5B

“I’ve watched ‘The Sound of Music’ pretty much since I was born. It’s one of my parents’ favorite musicals,” Payne, a senior who plays Maria Rainer, said following a Tuesday, April 7, rehearsal among a cast of 40 — including two Hardin Valley Elementary students.

“I aspire to be Maria every day.

She is someone who, even through the tough times, always stays true to who she is. She is very outspoken, very energetic,” she added. “This character is See HVA on Page 4B

SJNCS girls show history savvy ■

TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com

Four girls from St. John Neumann Catholic School joined up to show their history savvy at the East Tennessee History Day and won a special award for their efforts.

“It feels pretty good to know all our work got us [the award],” Eleni Christopoulos, one of the students, said.

During the event Friday, March 6, at The University of Tennessee, Knoxville’s, Caroline P. Brown Memorial University Center, seventh-graders Alex Dally, Christopoulos, Kate Gleason and Olivia Escher, won the Dan and Mary Shannon Award for Outstanding Use of Primary Sources for their documentary, “Truman’s Leadership and Legacy.”

The girls were four of 33 stu-

dents from across the state to win special awards during East Tennessee History Day, Tre Harget, Secretary of State for the state of Tennessee, said.

National History Day is an annual event in which middle and high school students prepare research papers, websites, documentaries, exhibits and performances on topics of historical interest.

The four SJNCS seventhgraders competed as a group, first at the school level and then at the regional event, Janet Harrigan, SJNCS director of admissions and development, said.

“We made a documentary about President Truman,” Eleni said.

“We felt it fit well with this year’s theme, ‘Leadership and Legacy,’” she added. “He showed great leadership with his deseg-

regation of the military. It made our country better as a whole.”

Olivia said she never knew who desegregated the military until they were working on the documentary. “[Truman] was influenced by Eleanor Roosevelt and other people around him,” she said.

Eleni said their social studies teacher told the students about the project, and the girls, who were already friends, decided to work together.

The girls won the award because of the way they used primary sources, Harrigan said.

“We got second place with that,” Eleni said.

Two of the girls, Eleni and Alex, traveled to Michigan, where they talked to a veteran Tuskegee Airman, part of a group of America’s first Black military

You’re as organized as you choose to be Every day I receive emails and comments from happy, enthusiastic, positive people who earnestly want to become more organized, efficient and happy in their homes. They’re so optimistic about a new way to be organized because they get inspired by others who have experienced success. Thank you to all of you who send those kinds of sentiments to me!

My goal Pam in spending most of my Young days writMake it ing is to Fun! encourage positive change in a lighthearted way and I appreciate all of your kind words and that you take the time to write to me.

Occasionally I receive comments from sad, whiney, unhappy women who just don’t realize the power they have to change their circumstances. I answer every email and when I receive the sad negative ones, the only thing I can do is turn it over to God and write with love.

Today I received this note and I’ve chosen not to use the woman’s name. I love her for reaching out and I know she wants to have things change and I know God has a plan for her, and I may or may not be a part of that plan.

Hi Pam, I’m completely overwhelmed with my situation. My husband works hard, but he doesn’t help around the house. The kids refuse to clean up after themselves and I end up nagging and then doing everything myself.

I’m miserable! I need all your books. I’m fat, we’re in debt, the house is a wreck and I don’t know where to start.

Help!

What this dear woman doesn’t realize is the power of her word or she would not have sentenced herself to a future that is exactly like her present situation. When she wrote, “I’m completely overwhelmed with my situation,” that’s actually her prayer and God says, “Yes.” Whatever we believe (good or bad), it is done unto us. Damn, I hate when that happens when it’s not good!

Notice in that statement, “I’m completely overwhelmed with my situation” there is no room to allow something different.

Her statement may as well be carved in stone. It’s truly what she believes is the truth and she is really a victim of her vow.

Lincoln said, “Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.” I’d like to trump Lincoln and say, “Most folks are about as organized as they make up their minds to be.”

But here’s the rub. When you try to get organized and you’re unhappy, you’ll crash and burn, because you’ll be focusing your energy in the wrong place. My sister and I had a program called Organized from the Inside Out and the first step of that program was getting the person to change her attitude.

Your natural state is to be happy, peaceful, joyous, and full of excitement at being alive. In this natural state you wake up each morning eager to start the day. You feel wonderful about yourself and your relationships with the people in your life. You enjoy your work and derive a great sense of satisfaction from making a contribution that makes a difference.

The sad woman who wrote that note has forgotten her natural state and until she has a plan to change how she thinks about her life, her days are going to continue to reflect exactly what she expects.

Your primary goal is to organize your life in such a way that you allow yourself to be happy,

NOW TREATING

NARCOTIC ADDICTION

peaceful and joyous most of the time. If you’re unhappy or dissatisfied in any part of your life, something is not right in your thinking and you have the power to correct it. The starting point in having the life you want is to realize that you already are wonderful beyond measure. No matter what kind of a mess you’re in today, or what you’ve done or haven’t done in the past, today is a new day ripe with the opportunity to change and thrive.

You were born with a great destiny. You are meant to do something wonderful with your life. You have a unique combination of talents, abilities, ideas, insights, and experiences that make you different from anyone who has ever lived. You are designed for success and engineered for greatness.

You just need to get to know you. If you’ve been too busy trying to get to know everybody else, maybe it’s time to look closely at the person you’re going to spend eternity with, you. Who are you? What do you love to do? Where do you like to be? What makes you feel good?

Ask these four questions and you’ll start your exciting journey to being organized just enough to please you.

such an embodiment of love and kindness to others, and that’s something I love portraying. I’ve known all the songs.

“When I found out we were doing The Sound of Music I was completely ecstatic.”

Directed by HVA choir teacher Teresa Scoggins, this roughly two-hour, two act musical begins at 7 p.m., Friday and Saturday, April 17-18, and at 3 p.m., Sunday, April 19, in HVA Auditorium. Cost is $8 for adults, $5 for students and children.

Senior Ethan Guthrie, starring as Capt. Vontrapp, was rewarded with the part he tried out for after coming up with an audition song “that was not from the musical,” followed by “some cold reads to see who had chemistry with whom,” he said.

The biggest challenge, Guthrie said, “Is keeping my facial expressions under control.”

Junior Maggie Kohlbusch plays Brigitta Vontrapp, one of the Vontrapp Children. “I used to want to play every Vontrapp kid when I was little, so this is on the way,” Kohlbusch said. “I used to watch [The Sound of Music]

every day when I was little. When I was 8 or 9 I was Gretel [during a] Roane State Community College” production.

“I love the role [of Brigitta] simply because she is very bright and very clever. … She realizes who likes each other,” Kohlbusch added.

Though having seen The Sound of Music “only once,” junior Amy Linn (as Vontrapp child Leisl), added, “I’m a big Julie Andrews fan.”

About Leisl, “I find her, like, very challenging,” Linn said. “You might just see her and think she’s like some kind of lofty teenager, but she’s going through all the hard times you go through as a teenager during this really intense political time in the world [World War II]. She’s just trying to grow up and to know what things mean and to know what love is.”

Linn said her challenge as Leisl “is just bringing all that emotional depth and still bringing the youth of, like, being a teenager.”

Junior Noah Skurtu said his role, as oldest Vontrapp child Friedrich, “Has made me more of a fan” of this musical.

Besides the interviews and video, Olivia, Eleni and Kate visited the Civil Rights Museum in Atlanta, where they gathered information, Christopoulos said.

FPS students showcase their talent, knowledge at enrichment contest ■

TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com

Farragut Primary School students demonstrated their talents and knowledge in this year’s schoolwide student enrichment contests, sponsored by FPS Parent-Teacher Association.

The PTA displayed students’ works from the contests during a reception Thursday night, March 26, in the school cafeteria.

FPS Parent-Teacher Association offers annual schoolwide competition opportunities in citizenship, literature essay, PTA’s Reflections Arts Program and a safety poster, LeighAnna Colgrove, FPS PTA Contests chairwoman, said.

“This event was the first public art show for many of the children participating,” Colgrove added.

“It’s awesome to see the talent of all the young kids,” Gina Byrd, FPS principal, said. “We have everything from videos to photographs and drawings.”

One contestant was Eva Rogers, who wrote a song, “Be True,” for the Reflections competition. Eva explained her song in a summary, which was part of the display.

“I think my song relates to the theme because it’s about stopping bullying, and I think they can make the world a better place,” Eva said in the summary.

“She writes [songs] all the time,” Eva’s grandmother, Margaret Rogers of Farragut, said.

“She sang them on the way here [to the school].”

The girl will be recognized with an Award of Merit during the Tennessee PTA Convention in late April in Chattanooga.

Colgrove said participation in the contests was voluntary and

added it provides an opportunity for students to explore the arts and civic involvement.

The contests are organized and administered by Colgrove with support of Arlene Driver, PTA president, and Byrd.

To participate in Reflections Arts Program, students were asked to create art works in response to “The world would be a better place if …”

Winners in that category were: Amelia Dorset, first place for dance choreography and first and third place for photography; Sofia Plawchan, first place for film production; Eva Rogers, first place for music composition; Sibley Walker, first place in visual arts; Tyler Slatas, second place in photography; Sarah Kate Hastey, second place in visual arts, and Joanna Lee, third place in visual arts.

Honorable mentions went to Swara Kartik andTesseri Mallison while Abby Kuhn, Liam Saffles, and Chloe Yoon were recognized

as outstanding participants.

In the Citizenship Literature Essay contest, with the theme, “If I were President for the Day,” Bill Liang, second place, and Claire Tootle, first place, advanced to the Knox County Council contest, and will compete in the state contest, Colgrove said.

Charlie Robards won first place in the school’s safety poster contest, “Be Smart. Be Safe. Be Seen,” and advanced to compete in the KCC contest.

FHS winners honored during an Honoring Our Founders & Celebrating Our Students dinner Feb. 23 at Bearden High School were Sibley, honorable mention in Reflections visual arts; Sofia, third place in Reflections film production; Claire, second place in Citizenship Literature Essay; Eva, first place in Reflections musical composition and Amelia, second place in Reflections dance choreography.

through No. 13. “It’s compact, there’s not a lot of space or distance between holes. … It’s a beautiful section. There’s a creek going through it.”

Pease said one Masters tradition during practice rounds involves trying to pull off a trick at No. 16. “It’s a par 3 over a little pond. … They hit a second practice ball in front of the tee box just to see if they can get it on the green by skipping it across the pond,” he said.

Overall, “It was terrifically organized, even down to the bathrooms,” Pease said. “The concession lines moved very fast, the lines in the Pro Shop moved very fast.

“The course obviously was immaculate, you always hear about that,” he added. “We didn’t see a single weed.”

Augusta National’s fairway grass “is unlike any grass I’ve ever seen. The course is just so beautiful.”

Run From page 1B

Residents are asked do their part in helping make the community a cleaner, greener place to live, play, walk and run, Allison Teeters, Keep Knoxville Beautiful executive director, said.

Participants are invited to celebrate the Trash Run and Earth Day afterward at Wild Wing Café, she said. Turkey Creek Greenway trail, located at Turkey Creek Road, connects Brixworth,

table, then you can reserve one; but if you wish to come on your own and meet new friends, the event is great for that too,” Lubert said. “The event lends itself to a relaxed and inviting environment.”

The luncheon and fashion show is a signature SJN Women’s Club event. Four years ago, club members were looking for a signature fund-raising event, she said.

“We had attended fashion shows

Kingsgate and Sailview subdivisions with Anchor Park. “[Trash Run is] something we’ve been talking about, and we decided Farragut would be a great place to hold it,” Teeters said. “Farragut lends itself to great greenways and sidewalks to keep our volunteers out of danger.

“In addition, we appreciate the support of the town of Farragut, Wild Wing Café, which lends us a great opportunity to access the greenways and sidewalks, and Covenant Health Knoxville

Marathon.”

She said the Trash Run is a noncompetitive fun run and litter pickup for runners/walkers of all ages, from children to senior citizens.

“We call it a run, but it’s really ideal for anyone,” Teeters said. “It doesn’t matter what fitness level you are.

“And, if you run too fast, you will miss the trash,” she said.

Groups are encouraged to take part and see who will pick up that first piece of trash first, she

added.

There is no length specified for the event. Instead, participants are encouraged to spend about an hour running or walking and collecting litter.

“Our hope is the people will realize all the wonderful recreational opportunities that are available and that it’s up to all of us to take care of the community,” Teeters said.

KKB expects about 50 participants because this is the first year it has held the event, she said.

There is a participation fee of $10, which includes a T-shirt and $3 food voucher at Wild Wing Café, and there will be door prizes available, she said. Keep Knoxville Beautiful will provide gloves, bags and litter-picker, and space is limited to the first 50 participants.

Register by visiting KeepKnoxvilleBeautiful.org and clicking on the Trash Run link.

at other parishes,” Lubert said.

“We thought this was a good way to bring the ladies together for fun and fellowship, in addition to raising money for a good cause.”

This year’s designated charity, which will receive some of the proceeds from the event, is the Pregnancy Help Center, she said.

“During the year we also contribute to other needs, particularly through Catholic Charities of East Tennessee, which serves the poorest and most vulnerable seniors, children and families of all faiths in our Knoxville region,” she said.

“In the past we have raised around $2,000 at this signature event,” Lubert said. “We do not set a lofty goal — our main concern is that we keep our ticket price low [$15] in order to be attractive to a wide rage of attendees. We structure our yearly budget and donations on our proceeds from each year’s event,” she said.

Part of the luncheon and fashion show proceeds go toward the Women’s Club’s operating costs and for gratuities to speakers who come throughout the year.

Lubert said the luncheon and

fashion show event has grown each year.

“Initially, we had just over 100 attendees,” Lubert said. “Last

year, between 120 and 130 ladies enjoyed the event. Our goal each year is to keep the attendance increasing.”

With compassion and comfort, we have been proudly serving the families of this community since 1884.
