Class of 2012 send off While addressing his Bearden High School graduating Class of 2012 Friday evening, May 18, Dr. John Bartlett, principal, holds up a marble as a symbol of affection toward Ed Hedgepeth. Hedgepeth, retiring after 41 years in education, is a former BHS and Farragut High School principal (24 combined years) who in recent years has served as executive director of secondary education for Knox County Schools.

A “small graduating class” worth more than $18 million in scholarships was wearing navy blue gowns, and the first graduating class to ever complete four years at their school also was wearing blue. Add those graduates in maroon gowns, at least one dozen members of which will follow in their principal’s footsteps. These are thumbnail sketches of 2012 graduating classes at Farragut and Bearden high schools and Hardin Valley Academy — all three conducting ceremonies in The University of Tennessee’s Thompson-Boling Arena last weekend. During FHS Class of 2012’s ceremony Saturday evening, May 19, principal Michael Reynolds said, “Although they are small in number [363] they have accomplished much. The Class of 2012 has earned a scholarship total of

Sallee Reynolds, HVA principal, cracks a smile while addressing her Class of 2012 during graduation ceremonies in UT’s Thompson-Boling Arena Saturday afternoon, May 19. Reynolds spoke of her especially close relationship with this year’s senior class, which dates back to her first group contact with these students as eighth-graders in 2008.

$18.3 million. Eighty-two percent of this class earned some kind of scholarship.” This FHS class is led by valedictorian Ramie Fathy, who will attend Princeton University and major in molecular biology after finishing high school with a 4.71 grade point average; a National Merit finalist, National AP Scholar with Distinction who earned 11 scholarships, including Princeton and CaliforniaBerkeley, worth $901,000. Salutatorian Derek Cui Xu also will attend Princeton University majoring in molecular biology (4.69 GPA); a National Merit finalist who received eight scholarships totaling $465,000. “In academics, this class has 16 National Merit Commended students, eight National Merit semifinals … one of two Presidential Scholars from the state of Tennessee, one of two U.S. Youth Senate delegates, one of two students who was named a Siemen’s Award Winner for the

state of Tennessee ... 33 AP Scholars, 21 AP Scholars with honors, 38 AP Scholars With Distinction and six National AP Scholars,” Reynolds said. George Ashe, Hardin Valley Academy assistant principal and athletic director, announced during his school’s ceremony Saturday afternoon that HVA’s Class of 2012 (492) earned more than $21 million in scholarships. Valedictorian Christopher Barnes was recognized with a grade point average “over 4.5 and will be attending The University of Tennessee,” said Sallee Reynolds, HVA principal. Salutatorian Paul Barry, also headed to UT, was recognized with a GPA of “over 4.4,” she added. During her address, Sallee Reynolds said she was “extremely proud of all those sitting before me,” adding this class “is the first to go through all four years at Hardin Valley Academy. … You helped start our tradi-

Michael Reynolds, FHS principal, emphatically reminds a heckler that this graduation ceremony belongs to his Class of 2012 during festivities in The University of Tennessee’s Thompson-Boling Arena Saturday evening, May 19. Reynolds pointed out a laundry list of accomplishments from this year’s senior class, which he labeled as “small” with 363 graduates listed in the school’s program.

tions, and you have continued to enhance them.” HVA graduate Jonathan Chastain earned his school’s annual Hawk Award, “the highest award voted on by the faculty” to a graduating senior “who exhibits high standards of dependability, responsibility, citizenship, cheerfulness, moral character and academic performance,” Sallee Reynolds said. Chastain earned a $250 check. At Bearden High School’s ceremony Friday evening, May 18, BHS principal Dr. John Bartlett said, “It’s been four years of a great journey.” Valedictorian Kevin Hoang was commencement speaker. Salutatorian Emily Schutt also was recognized. “Total scholarship offers to BHS Class of 2012 is over $70.9 million for a class of [463],” Bartlett said. “You’ve done a great job. … Sixty-seven percent of this class will be in a four-year institution next year.”

A former U.S. Marine, Bartlett added, “And then there’s another 12 or 13 of you, another two percent, I’m going to ask you to stand if you signed to take the great challenge of joining the U.S. military.” Those students received a standing ovation. Referencing 16th U.S. President Abraham Lincoln in his address to the class, Bartlett said Lincoln, prior to his presidency, “Would have gone down in history as a failure. It’s been well documented that he lost on numerous occasions when he attempted [election] in the political arena. Failed in business, lost his job on numerous occasions. “Yet, Abe Lincoln studied and worked hard,” Bartlett added. “And when circumstances called, President Lincoln was prepared. “I am forever grateful, and count it as one of life’s highest honors to be your principal.”

Teenager crashes car in Montgomery Cove yard Curfman, 19, charged with DUI

DAN BARILE editor@farragutpress.com

Several residents of Montgomery Cove subdivision off Northshore Drive were rousted from their homes to a loud crashing sound Wednesday, May 16. Clarke Curfman, 19, a 2011 Webb School of Curfman Knoxville graduate and lacrosse player, had lost control of the 1994 BMW 325i he was driving and crashed, leaving the car upside down in the front yard of Dr. Mohamed and Kimberly

Mahfouz. The crash left residents scratching their heads wondering how an accident such as this could happen in their lakefront pastoral community. Kimberly Mahfouz said, “Our family was home at the time of the accident; resting, doing homework and getting dinner started.” She added after hearing two loud noises she passed off as perhaps a speed boat splashing high lake water up on the dock, causing the family’s jet skis to rock on the lift and bump up against the wooden dock, she heard the front doorbell ring. “At that point,” she said, “it became quite clear that the two See WRECK on Page 5A

KCSO names Farragut liaison ■

HEATHER BECK hbeck@farragutpress.com

Knox County Sheriff’s Office is taking steps to relieve the perception that Farragut isn’t receiving enough police coverage by establishing a Farragut precinct and staffing it with a KCSO liaison. That man is Capt. Jeff Palmer. “My job is to be accessible, be accessible to the community,” Palmer said. “I am to make Farragut’s problems my problems,” he added. Palmer said he’ll work with Farragut officials and citizens to identify existing or potential issues and coordinate appropriate responses. He will “work with the administrators here, coordinate the appropriate response. Everything isn’t going to be a law enforcement problem; sometimes it’s just going to be a social issue of some type and a big part of what I’ll be doing is finding the appropriate resource to use. “A lot of what we do is social maintenance,” he added.

Palmer, 52, was born and raised in Knoxville, joining the Marines at 18. He was discharged in 1981 and then joined KCSO. Palmer has worked in the patrol division since 1983, with five years as a patrol shift commander. He has a Masters degree in criminal justice from The University of Tennessee Chattanooga. His new title is Farragut precinct captain. Palmer said KCSO Sheriff Jimmy “J.J.” Jones hoped having an officer in Town Hall — second floor, Knox County Sheriff’s

Office West Precinct — will help dispel the perception KCSO doesn’t have enough officers on this side of town. “I’ll act as a direct liaison between the Farragut community and the Sheriff’s Office and to be available specifically for Farragut-related issues,” Palmer said. “That sounds an awful lot like there was some glaring problem, and that’s not the case ... but a part of why I’m here is to resolve that. A part of the strategy is to alleviate any concerns some people may have had,” he added. Palmer actually is Farragut’s second KCSO liaison, replacing Capt. Ben Harkins, who retired from KCSO and became Farragut’s photo enforcement manager. “I was assigned the position by the sheriff, probably because of my education and experience,” Palmer said. “I’m sure he felt that experience and perspective could only be of benefit,” he added. Citizens with non-emergency concerns or questions can email Palmer at jeff.palmer@ knoxsheriff.org People experiencing emergencies should always call 911.

The budget is balanced and continues David to meet Smoak Farragut the needs of the Town communiAdministrator ty while maintaining services. In summary, the Town is in good financial health and continues to experience business and revenue growth from retail establishments locating in Farragut. Increased sales tax revenue from new businesses such as Costco and Publix will allow the Town to sustain its current service levels. With a continued focus on its Capital Investment Program (CIP), the town of Farragut is committing $2.3 million this year to the CIP. The following projects will be priorities in FY2013: Watt Road Extension/Old Stage Improvements A long-time priority on the Town’s major road program, the project will connect Watt Road to Old Stage Road. TDOT will cover 80% of the costs and coordinate construction. Grigsby Chapel Road Island Improvements The Town is allocating $50,000 for continued rehab, replanting and maintenance of the islands.

presstalk • Yes, this is to the editor of the farragutpress that responded about the 18-wheel trucks. He responded with, “It would take billions of tax dollars to build roads for trucks.” They can use roads that are already built, in case you hadn’t thought of that, specific roads for the trucks and that’s what they would need to use. And also, I like the idea of the freight being shipped by rail system and then the merchants could go with their own trucks over and pick up supplies: with small trucks, bring it back to their stores and put it on their shelves. Thank you. • I am responding to the caller who questioned farragutpress’s attention to sports accolades over academics. The editing staff is not clairvoyant.

Thank you. • Hello, my name is [redacted]. I am a local Farragut business owner and a local Farragut resident and I have been here in Farragut for over 12 years now. I think Farragut would need a town [inaudible] in this beautiful little town. We moved here back in 2000 and used to live here back in ’91 to ’94. We came back because we did fall in love in Farragut and we have participated in the growth in the construction industry all around the Farragut community and I think that it would suit Farragut well to have a nice little downtown. It deserves a beautiful area like that. Anyway, thank you for the opportunity and hope the message finds you

well and have a good day. God bless you. • Hello, my name is [redacted] and I am a resident of Farragut town and for about 15 years with a hardwood flooring and tile business in Farragut and I am so happy that I have the privilege to give my opinion regarding focusing on a downtown for Farragut. I believe the only thing that’s missing in Farragut is a nice, beautiful downtown. Everything is going to go up and the business and everything is going to go differently when we have a nice downtown in Farragut, which I believe it will be the best [if] it’s going to be near Campbell Station Road, so with the retail and even, you know, residential around there. I believe it’s going to be something really Farragut needs and everybody around will be very happy, and we pray for this to happen soon. Thank you so much. Bye-bye.

• I’d like to add something for the city planners of Farragut to add to long-range planning and budgeting and that would be to expand our sidewalk system and to concentrate on a biking trail system as well. This is a safety concern, this is a health concern; it would be very widely used, very popular, both for drivers and for bikers and walkers. So please think about that. • Yes, I want to comment about the trucking system. I had called in last week and you wrote a note that trucks are used to move railroad freight to its destination. I already realize that, but the companies that are getting their freight should have their own smaller trucks going to the freight system and pick it up and take it back. This will eliminate long-haul trucking. Thank you. • Farragut’s planning board See PRESSTALK on Page 6A

Deakins talks cash Knox County Schools asking for $175 million over next five years

■

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

If your residential property value has been assessed near what Thomas Deakins said is the “median average in Knox County,” $156,500, then you’re being asked to fork over roughly 38 cents more in property tax per day to greatly impact K-12 education. For those whose residential property has been assessed around $300,000, you’d shell out about 72 cents more per day. Deakins, Knox County Board of Education chair and representative from District 6 (Hardin Valley, Karns schools), broke down costs and benefits of a requested $35 million increase in the 2012-13 fiscal year county budget Tuesday, May 10. That came during a visit with District 6 educators in Hardin Valley Academy auditorium. Included would be more instructional time, in which each school could decide its own procedure, according to Deakins. “There may be some schools that come back and say, ‘we need half a day on Saturday, or we need to extend the day by 30 minutes,’” he said. If the $35 million increase is passed for 2012-13, “we’re going to take $7 million of the $35 million and put it in our general operating budget,” Deakins said. “The $28 million that’s left is going to go to facility improvements — long overdue facility improvements.” Facility improvements from the $28 million would include Farragut High School and Farragut Primary School, among 16 schools listed in a slide he displayed at the meeting. The $7 million “general budget

items” include investing into more “enrichment opportunities for advanced students” and increased “intervention for struggling students.” Increased “educator positions” would include “a lot more positions in regard to instructional coaches and lead teachers in this budget. … More professional development time,” he said. Deakins said slightly more than one-third of the $175 million that the board and Dr. Jim McIntyre, Knox County Schools superintendent, are asking from county taxpayers over the next five fiscal years will go to teachers. Increased “base pay and performance pay” for teachers adds up to “$60 million over the next five years invested in teacher compensation,” he said. Cindy Buttry, board representative from District 3 who joined Deakins at HVA, said Knox County “is 37th in the state of Tennessee where we pay our teachers.” Overall, “Our goal is, by year five, every one of 88 schools is wireless, and every student and teacher will have some type of wireless device,” Deakins said. By 2020, the goal is having “90 percent of our third-graders proficient or advanced in reading, and 81 percent of our graduates scoring a 21 or higher on the ACT,” Deakins said. “That’s a lofty goal from where we are today.” Deakins said Knox County’s average ACT score at 20.4 is lowest among the following systems: Oak Ridge, Alcoa, Maryville, Kingsport, Greeneville, Shelby County, Elizabethton, Johnson City, Cleveland and Williamson See DEAKINS on Page 7A

loud noises I heard came from the impact the car had made in our front lawn and then after it became airborne; the impact of the car landing in our front yard. If it had not been for our neighbors’ mailboxes and two medium-sized trees getting plowed down, the car very well would have been in our house.” Another resident, who wished to remain anonymous, added that “it has become a habitual daily routine for some residents who live in Montgomery Cove to come home every afternoon and witness dozens of cars parked out front of a neighbor’s house with underaged teens carrying in beer. [Legal alcohol consumption age in Tennessee is 21.] It was just a matter of time before something like this happened.” Knox County Sheriff’s Office deputy Richard Van Kirk answered part of their concerns by arresting Curfman, a Middleground Lane resident, and charging him with underage consumption and driving under the influence of alcohol. According to the KCSO report, Curfman admitted to having “consumed nine beers and was returning to a friend’s house when he ran off the road, hit a tree and flipped his vehicle.” Due to the extent of his injuries, KCSO did not perform a field sobriety test. However, Curfman did consent to a legal blood draw at The University of Tennessee Medical Center. Another resident, commenting anonymously via telephone, told farragutpress she was concerned for the safety of her children. “My children often play in our front yard and they could have easily been struck by this car,” she said. Mahfouz said, “Our two dogs were in the front yard and our 8-

Town ponders cutting KAT funding from budget

■

HEATHER BECK hbeck@farragutpress.com

Public transportation might be financially cut from Farragut’s fiscal year 2013 budget while schools could see a funding bump. During a budget workshop discussion Thursday, May 10, Farragut’s Board of Mayor and Aldermen seemed to advocate cutting funding for Knoxville Area Transit, which runs an express bus line from Campbell Station Road to downtown Knoxville three times a day. The route has an average of just over 20 riders. “I think KAT provides valuable service, but not value to our community,” Alderman Ron Honken said. Alderman Jeff Elliott agreed, saying he’d “been extremely disappointed” with KAT. “KAT is woefully inefficient,” Alderman Bob Markli said. “We could buy a taxi and taxi everyone down there.” Workshop items are for discussion only; no official vote was taken. KAT requested $80,000 from the Town this year as part of Farragut’s community grants program. The budget includes a grant of $40,000 to the public transportation entity. Alderman Ron Honken said he’d like to take the $40,000 from

I know for a fact that three business owners were there to speak to the board in a public forum about how this change would cause huge financial burdens on property owners, yet no discussion was allowed before voting to pass it.

KAT, plus $20,000 to both Farragut High School’s and Hardin Valley Academy’s education foundations, add additional money from the general fund and divide $225,000 among the five schools serving Farragut students. “They need it; they’ll do a great job with it. That’s a great use of our money,” Honken said. “So instead of ‘Farragut: we’re not in the school business;’ it would be “Farragut: we’re all about the schools,’” Markli said. Honken’s idea to give each of the schools $45,000 — a large leap from the standard $10,000 a year they receive from Farragut — wasn’t met with enthusiastic support from other Board members. “I’m not in favor of that,” Elliott said. “That sends the wrong message to County Commission and the School Board,” he added. Elliott said Farragut schools already receive less money than other schools in the County, and if Farragut substantially increased its funding, Knox County could cut their funding back even further. Mayor Ralph McGill said he’d spoken with school superintendent Dr. Jim McIntyre, who told him Farragut schools don’t See BUDGET on Page 7A

Jablonski calls for closing Uniformed Officers Pension Plan ■ ALAN SLOAN

asloan@farragutpress.com

Diane Jablonski said she takes pride in being “a parliamentarian, and I’m looking to clean up the language and clarify language in the [Knox County] Charter.” However, this former Knox County Board of Education member who served Farragut schools (1994-2002) is looking to make charter language less specific, through referendum, as a member of Knox County Charter Review Committee. Citing rising taxpayer costs resulting from such language specifying how Knox County Sheriff Office’s Uniformed Officers Pension Plan is funded, “Why did anybody put so many specific things in the charter?” asked Jablonski, part of a fivemember Charter review subcommittee within the larger 27-member body that specifically studied

pension referendum clarifications. “It’s written in the charter that the only way that it can be changed is by referendum. In my humble opinion, that section needs to be changed. … You need to remove the specificity,” she added. “The only way that I can see that there can be change would be to cut off the pension as it is, but the people already under that system would have to continue, and that’s backed up in state court rulings.” Ideally, Jablonski said, specific details about how pensions for a new KCSO officers would be set up — from the day any changes, per referendum vote, would go into the charter — “would be determined by the Pension Board with concurrence from County Commission.” Jablonski said her subcommittee’s recommendation is to draft referendum language to “close

the current Uniformed Officers Pension Plan to new employees as of July 1, 2013 and instruct the Retirement Board to create a new enhanced Uniformed Officers Plan for new employees” and change “Section 7.05” of the Charter. “The charter would then state that the pension board, with concurrence of commission, would establish the Uniformed Officers Pension,” she added. As for feedback, “The officers who serve on the pension board have come to all the subcommittee meetings, and what they keep saying is, ‘the people voted for this,’” Jablonski said about the plan, and all its specific language, accepted through referendum. “The people voted for it thinking it was going to be a maximum of 11 percent match. It’s now at 18 or 19 percent match,” See JABLONSKI on Page 7A

Town community center calls for debt

■

HEATHER BECK hbeck@farragutpress.com

If Farragut were to pursue opening a community center in the next five years, the Town would have to enter into debt, Town administrator David Smoak told the Board of Mayor and Aldermen during a workshop session Thursday, May 10. Smoak was presenting the 2013 draft budget, which includes a five-year outline of capital investment expenditures. A community center isn’t included on the list. Smoak said if the Board did wish to include a community center, the Town likely could pursue a $5 million bond issue in 2014 and in 2017. Workshop items are for discussion only; no vote was taken on this idea. “The reasons to do debt are to get the project going right away,” Smoak said. If Farragut opts to pay for a community center with cash, the Town will have to save for years.

Jablonski From page 1

Jablonski added about the extra taxpayer expense. “We’ve asked the law director [Joe Jarret] to write the language that would go on the ballot so we can look at that and decide if that’s the way we want to vote on it for first

receives lots of funding because they “don’t need it.” “They don’t have the kids that are are distressed and cannot learn, and are challenged to learn, and other schools do,” McGill said.

Farragut has had no debt for many years, although it did issue bonds to build Town Hall. “That’s how they built Town Hall and we were able to pay it off five years before it was due,” Vice Mayor Dot LaMarche said. Smoak said a $5 million fixed rate bond would be a stable obligation with “the lowest rates in history right now.” The bond would be less than 5 percent of Farragut’s total budget. Because the Town currently has no debt, it has no credit rating. “I would much rather pay as we go,” Alderman Ron Honken said. Alderman Jeff Elliott asked Smoak just how Farragut would spend a $5 million bond: what the community center would feature, where it would be located and the services it would offer. Smoak said he wasn’t sure, but was presenting the idea as an option following strong citizen feedback in favor of a community center. “I’ve heard a lot of positives about it but everybody has a dif-

reading.” Jarret “has to approve the language for the ballot anyway,” Jablonski said, adding the full committee could “tweak some” the final referendum language. Next committee meeting begins at 5 p.m., Wednesday, May 23, in small assembly room of City-County building.

Markli said McIntyre’s proposed budget increase — which would add a minimum of $35 million to the school budget for each of the next five years, for a total of $175 million — was “unconscionable.” “It costs two times as much to send a kid through Knox County schools than to Webb. That’s a

ferent slant on it,” Elliott said. He told Smoak he’d rather have concrete plans in place before pursuing debt. The Board is set to approve the fiscal year 2013 budget on first reading at its next meeting, May 24. Any CIP advocating debt presumably would be part of that discussion. Next year, the Town is budgeting for about $7.5 million in total revenues and $6.2 million in expenditures. About $2.5 million will be spent on capital investment projects as varied as countdown timers at crosswalks to improvements to parks to the Old Stage Road/Watt Road extension. “We have a very aggressive CIP over the next five years,” Smoak said. The budget also includes two new staff positions at Town Hall: one full-time GIS/IT position with a budgeted $68,270 in salary and benefits, and one part-time administrative assistant for public works with a budgeted $21,470 in salary. “We’re adding personnel, one or two a year, since I’ve been here. I’m having a bit of trouble explaining that to people,” Alderman Bob Markli said. “This will make us more efficient,” Smoak said, pointing out the GIS/IT position would be replacing a contract employee.

County. Deakins said every 1 cent increase in property tax generates $1 million in extra revenue, “so it would be a 35-cent property tax increase.” If the 11-person Commission voted to approve the $35 million increase by simple majority, Commission would need eight votes to override Knox County Mayor Tim Burchett’s anticipated veto of the budget increase. Burchett already has signed off on a budget with only a small

percentage of the $35 million accepted, though a separate $12.5 education spending increase is expected to pass easily. Deakins advocated sounding off “to your commissioners” at commission@knoxcounty.org or to Burchett at county.mayor @knoxcounty.org In addition, Deakins pointed to a special-called Commission meeting, starting at 5 p.m., Wednesday, May 30, in CityCounty Building’s main assembly room. “We need a packed house,” Deakins said.

The resolution did not support increased funding for the schools — either from Farragut or as part of McIntyre’s requested budget.

Now that another school year is drawing to a close, your young children are a step closer to the day when they’ll be heading off to college. Of course, as you’re probably aware, higher education doesn’t come cheap — and the costs seem to continuously climb. You can help your children — or even your grandchildren — meet these expenses by investing in a 529 plan. And this college savings vehicle offers estate-planning benefits. As a college funding vehicle, a 529 plan offers some significant benefits. When you contribute to a 529 plan, your earnings accumulate tax free, provided they are used for qualified higher education expenses. (Keep in mind, though, that 529 plan distributions not used for qualified expenses may be subject to federal and state income tax and a 10% IRS penalty.) Furthermore, your 529 plan contributions may be deductible from your state taxes. However, 529 plans vary, so be sure to check with your tax advisor. And the lifetime contribution limits for 529 plans are quite generous; while these limits vary by state, many plans allow contributions well in excess of $200,000. Plus, a 529 plan is flexible: If the child, grandchild or other beneficiary decides against college, you can transfer the unused funds to someone else, tax and penalty free. Now, let’s turn to a 529 plan’s estate-planning benefits. If you think that you may need to reduce the size of your taxable estate, and

Education teams,” Patton said in a CCS press release. “CCS has a strong team of highly qualified Christian educators and a wonderful staff. We will work together to significantly advance the programs of the school. “I’ve always enjoyed working with students. Christian education is a calling for me and my family,” Patton added. Patton and Mary Ellen “served in a ministry together that was a safe haven for children from drug-abusing families,” the release stated. “God used that experience to lead them to leadership in his first Christian school.” About CCS, “The Weekday Early Education and Concord Christian School programs are of high quality right now and we will work collaboratively to see the programs reach a higher level of Christian school excellence in the next decade,” Patton said in the release.

529 Plan Can Help with College Funding and Estate-planning Considerations you also want to create a legacy you may be able to enjoy during your lifetime, you may find that the 529 plan offers a solution for you. When you establish and contribute to a 529 plan, the assets leave your estate — but they don’t leave your control. If your named beneficiary decides against college and you don’t have another family member to whom you can transfer the account — or if you simply change your mind about funding the 529 plan — you can get your money back at any time, although, as mentioned above, you’ll have to pay taxes, and possibly a 10% IRS penalty, on the earnings. Your contributions to a 529 plan also qualify for the $13,000 annual gift tax exclusion, so you can give large amounts each year without incurring the gift tax. In the investment world, you can find many vehicles that can help you make progress toward one goal. But it’s far less common to find something that may give you a boost toward two. And when the two goals are helping a child or grandchild go to college and lowering the value of your taxable estate — while still maintaining control of your assets — you’ve got an investment worth considering. So consult with your tax and financial advisors to determine if a 529 plan is right for you. And if it is, think about taking action soon, because the more years you can contribute to a 529 plan, the better the outlook for both your future student and your estate plans.

Sue Stuhl, town of Farragut parks & leisure services director, speaks about Mayor Bob Leonard Park Field No. 2 proposed renovations to Doug Kirk of Knoxville United Soccer Association, far left, and Kurt Sichelstiel, second from left, president and head coach of Cheetah Lacrosse. Also adding input is Jay Smelser, right, athletic and park coordinator with parks & leisure services.

Field From page 1C

Stuhl said this roughly 20year-old field actually tilts at a subtle slope downward from the scoreboard side of the field toward the bleachers side. In addition to a completely new drainage system, a renovated Field No. 2 would be crowned “like a turtle’s back,” Stuhl said of the field’s slightly higher elevation in the middle sloping downward toward the sidelines. Seeking a state grant to help fund the proposed changes, Stuhl said field cost was unknown as of mid-May and did not estimate. “We’re still working on it,” she said. “We have $100,000 in the budget.” A possible state grant could become a reality late this year. “If we’re lucky enough, it could

provide up to 50 percent,” Stuhl said. Cost would include improvements to comply with Americans with Disabilities Act, Stuhl said. “Probably what we’d try to do is start it in the spring,” she added. Other sports using Field 2, which is estimated at 330 feet long and roughly 200 to 220 feet wide, include football, rugby and Frisbee, Stuhl said. Stuhl estimated from the time of groundbreaking until all grass is sown, “probably six weeks, give or take weather. We won’t use it for a while.” Doug Kirk, representing Knoxville United Soccer Association, said many KUSA games used to be played on Field 2 dating back to 2005. Of KUSA’s six 12-to-18 age teams “mostly based in

Farragut, Our older teams, especially the boys teams, try to use this field as much as we can,” Kirk said. “But there’s too many days we you can’t use this field. … It’s the days following the rain when everything else has opened back up but this one’s still closed down. “If there’s a real heavy rain Monday, a lot of times it wouldn’t be open on Thursday,” Kirk added. Often when his league’s game are rained out, “We just have to cancel. We don’t have another option.” While Field 2 is out of service, “We’ll have to be a little more creative with the scheduling, with some of the organizations” on other MBL Park and Town fields, said Jay Smelser, parks & leisure services athletic and park coordinator. “I don’t think we’ll lose any business.”

Pam Tebow has a son, famous for quarterbacking and worldwide Christian ministry, who wouldn’t have made it into diapers had she listened to a doctor. From the early stages of her difficult pregnancy with Tim Tebow while ministering in the Philippines, Pam said she became so ill, including “constant bleeding,” that one doctor recommended an abortion.

However, Pam said she and husband, evangelist/missionary Robert Tebow, prayed for Tim’s healthy delivery. “‘If You give us a son, we’ll raise him a preacher, not a quarterback, and we’ll name him Timothy,’” Pam recalled during her address to a packed First Baptist Concord main auditorium Thursday night, April 26. In the end, “God protected the little baby in my womb,” she added. “The bleeding stopped.” See TEBOW on Page 12C

Celebrating the life of Sgt. Mitchell Stout ■

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

U.S. Army Sgt. Mitchell W. Stout volunteered for a second tour of duty in Vietnam “‘to help these 18-year-old veterans that were in combat, front line combat. Those kids that they’re sending over there are green.’” This quote from the late Sgt. Stout, a U.S. Congressional Medal of Honor recipient, was recalled by his younger sister, Susan Stout Tyler. She also remembered the emotions surrounding Richard Dunn traveling from Texas to gratefully dedicate Sgt. Mitchell W. Stout Medal of Honor Memorial, Virtue Cemetery in Farragut, on July 11, 1998. That emotional gathering came almost 30 years after Sgt. Stout, a Lenoir City native and member of Virtue Cumberland Presbyterian Church in Farragut, saved the lives of Dunn and three others by sacrificing his own in battle. Mitchell grabbed a live Photos submitted

grenade thrown into their bunker, absorbing its explosion, during The Battle of Khe Gio Bridge. “We saw him several times. He would meet us at Uncle Jack [Watson's] when we came from our home in Atlanta,” said Tyler, on hand for East Tennessee Veterans Memorial Association’s Second Annual Medal of Honor Evening Celebrating the Life of Sgt. Mitchell W. Stout. With various military and political dignitaries on hand, this ETVMA celebration was held Monday, May 7, in the Historic Foundry Building, downtown Knoxville. “Needless to say, after the ceremonies were over we had time to put on our blue jeans and sit down and relax, it was at first very emotional,” Tyler said. “And then, that too turned into a celebration of Mitchell's life.” Dunn “came back to my uncle's and stayed at my uncle's house,” Tyler added. “We kept in touch for a while ... I believe he and his wife lived in Texas at that time. They came up to fish and socialize with us several times. We unfortunately lost contact.” Sgt. Stout also saved the lives of Jimmy Silva, Robert E. Foster and John H. Laughridge. Retired Army Spc. Donald Wittenberger is a Vietnam See STOUT on Page 8C

veteran who served with Sgt. Stout in Charlie Battery, 1st Battalion, 44th Artillery, 108th Artillery Group, “The most highly decorated artillery battalion of the Vietnam War,” he added. Sgt. Stout “didn’t have to come back to Vietnam, he had completed his tour of duty,” said Wittenberger, the celebration’s featured speaker. As for Sgt. Stout volunteering for another tour of duty, Tyler said, “He was experienced, seasoned, he had very good instincts. He went back to try to help somebody. That was his parting explanation to our closest family and friends.”

Tyler was 12 when Sgt. Stout heroically gave his life. Four years later, in 1974, Tyler was among family members on hand as President Gerald Ford posthumously awarded Sgt. Stout the Medal of Honor in Washington, D.C. “The more I heard and read and researched, I came to realize what a huge honor it is and how few ... those actual awards are. It is quite overwhelming,” Tyler said. Various buildings and bridges are named in Sgt. Stout’s honor. “I am very proud of what he was made of,” Tyler added. “He was brave, conscientious and loyal to his fellow soldiers. He was a people person. There was no way, if he had a choice, that he was going to let

anybody down in any way.” During his speech, Wittenberger, a retired judge living in Seattle, Wash., recalled the evening of Sgt. Stout’s heroic action. “After getting off a shift of guard duty about midnight or thereabouts, I went to the radio shack and was there with the battalion radio operator when the first distress call came in from the bridge,” Wittenberger said. “This was about 1.25 hours, 1:25 a.m. The radio operator out at the bridge told us that the position was under attack. In the background I could clearly hear explosions and heavy small arms fire. “They were in a bunker, they were pinned down by heavy mortar fire,” Wittenberger added. “No one could go outside because

they would be killed if they did. And then as soon as the mortar fire let up the enemy started to run through the area throwing grenades and firing their weapons. “A grenade is thrown in the bunker,” taking “four to five seconds” to detonate. “You don't have time to think about this. [Sgt. Stout] just snatched that grenade up and ran out of the bunker outside and it blew up when he reached the door.” Sgt. Stout “was with us for only five weeks before his death” at age 20, Wittenberger said. However, “Prior to being assigned to our battalion, he served a full tour of duty in Vietnam as an infantryman in the Mekong Delta, which is at the southern end of Vietnam,” Wittenberger added. “He was an experienced infantryman.”

After spending the day in Washington D.C. and visiting the monument that was finally erected in their honor in 2004, the veterans are treated to a welcome home party. “I would encourage anyone to take the time, when they announce that they are coming back from one of the flights, to

go over to the airport and watch these guys get off the plane and get the welcome they never had when they came back from war. Just to see their expressions and how thankful they are,” Hayes said. Hayes always has had a deep respect for America’s veterans. “Whether they are World War II or whether they are last week’s veterans, I couldn’t operate a business in a free country without people like that,” he said.

at 259 Old Mill Avenue in Pigeon Forge, and bears two very important distinctions. “We have one of the best groups of associates you could put together and the best selection of carpet, vinyl, wood, ceramic and area rugs in the area,” Hayes said.

For three area middle schoolers, ‘8s’ equal No. 2 in ‘Mathmindedness’

U.S. News & World Report: FHS No. in 5 in state; BHS No. 11

David Williams, founder of annual Mathmindedness contest, hands out a second-place medallion in “My Favorite Number” category to Ambrose Bechtel, an eighth-grade student at Farragut Middle School shown holding other math-related puzzles and games he won. Having already received her secondplace “Favorite Number” medallion and prizes is Sarah Rosenblum, an eighth-grade student at West Valley Middle School.

Farragut High School, 11237 Kingston Pike, continued its “Blue Ribbon School of Excellence” ways during 2011-12 with its No. 5 state ranking, according to U.S. News & World Report, among 351 public schools in Tennessee.

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

Among 351 public high schools in Tennessee, Farragut High School is ranked No. 5 according to U.S. News & World Report Best High School Rankings. “I’m proud of our students and staff and their efforts,” said FHS principal Michael Reynolds, whose school of roughly 1,665 students, 104 teachers and six administrators ranked 705th nationwide among 21,776 high schools. “I think that their diligence

and hard work in these hard economic times, where we have to fight for every resource we can get our hands on for our kids, means our staff and students do an outstanding job making the most of what they have,” Reynolds added. “And being competitive with schools across the state and across the country. That’s the way it should be.” Meanwhile, Bearden High School (1,927 students, 106 teachers) ranked 11th statewide. Moreover, with its rank of 1,303rd nationwide, “Bearden has been recognized as one of the

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

In “Mathmindedness” terms, 8 equals 18 equals 87.5 — at least for one year. Ambrose Bechtel’s favorite number is 87.5 because “I got that score on a bunch of tests” taken as a student at Farragut Middle School. That explanation impressed David Williams, creator, facilitator and judge of 20th Annual Mathmindedness contest, to earn this FMS eighth-grader a tie for second in Middle School Division’s “My Favorite Number” category.

See FHS on Page 10C

“That really struck home,” Williams added about Ambrose’s number and reasoning. Two other area middle schoolers, West Valley Middle eighthgrader Sarah Rosenblum and Ashley Stinson of FMS, also finished tied for second — also using numbers in the “8” family.

Richard and Betty Watts celebrated 50 years of marriage on April 14. The couple was married in Charlotte, N.C., April 14, 1962. Richard’s job with Whirlpool Corp. moved the couple to Farragut in 1973 and both got involved in Farragut sports — a “hobby” that kept both busy for more than 39 years. The family spent a lot of time on the ballfields and at the old school gym. When their son, Brad, played baseball at Farragut High School, Richard and Betty worked hard raising money to put lights up at the baseball field. Richard was commissioner of CBFO for many years and coached for more than 12 years while Betty coached cheerlead-

ing and ran the concession stands at Northshore. Richard has since run the score clock at home varsity games for more than 25 years. Betty for the most part was a stay-at-home mom who babysat over the years. She kept many of the teachers’ and principals’ babies from Farragut Middle School. Richard retired from Whirlpool after working there for 45 years. They have been members of Knoxville First Church of the Nazarene for 39 years. They have raised three children: Brad Watts of Knoxville, Dina Hodges (David) of Knoxville, and Shannon Gossage (Adam) of Knoxville. They have nine grandchildren.

Tebow From page 5C

While Pam’s message centered around four M’s: master, manual, mindset and mission, the evening’s tone was completely pro-life and pro-child — the event sponsored by Hope Resource Center, a selfdescribed “life-affirming ministry” based in Lenoir City bent on eliminating abortions. “I love God stories,” Pam said. Pam said she is “so proud of Timmy bringing in kids” dealing with life-threatening and disabling conditions. One example came moments after Tim’s poor quarterbacking with Denver led to a one-sided late-season loss at Buffalo in 2011. Tim met a once-promising high school football star named Jacob. Jacob’s life was turned upside down after an injury his junior season severed a “main artery.” To replace that artery, “They had to amputate his leg,” she added about Jacob. “They stayed together and talked for what seemed like a lifetime.” Another example of taking time with a disadvantaged teenager came at a restaurant in Orlando, Fla., prior to a college football award show there after Tim’s senior year with the Florida Gators. A young girl had her hands and nose pressed against the outside glass, attempting to get a good look at the Heisman Trophy winning quarterback. Because of challenges having to do with balance, “She had to balance herself against the

glass,” Pam said. “The family had made the trip to Orlando in hopes of getting a glimpse of Timmy.” Pam said a waitress informed Tim, and he went outside to meet the girl and her family. Pam said Tim asked the girl, ‘Would you give me the honor of escorting you down the red carpet at the awards show?” Coming down that red carpet, “She shook noticeably, but she hung on,” Pam added. “Everybody in the crowd had tears.” Pam recalled a girl who was literally minutes away from death due to cancer, whose family managed to contact Tim by phone. “He prayed with her and told her the most important thing in my life is my relationship with Jesus Christ,” Pam said. “A halfhour later she met her Savior.” Also on hand were dozens of Carson-Newman College football players and head coach Ken Sparks, serving as ushers during the event before leading a religious “huddle” ceremony. The Tebows know Sparks, a former Farragut High School varsity football head coach (1977-79). “Our oldest son, Robbie, played football at Carson-Newman for coach Sparks,” Pam said. Pam said the Tebow family (five children) “grew big faith muscles” during their ministry in the Philippines and throughout Asia. The evening also featured a 12-year-old boy, on hand with his mother, who told the story of almost aborting him in an Atlanta, Ga., clinic.

ORNL earns award for excellence

A team at Oak Ridge National Laboratory recently received a Federal Laboratory Consortium award for excellence in technology transfer for a clean-burning cookstove designed for the developing world. Team members included Mike Brady, Tim Theiss and former Farragut alderman Tom Rosseel. The Envirofit Cookstove is a clean burning stove that reduces smoke and harmful gases such as carbon monoxide. Envirofit, which designed the cookstove with Colorado State University, requested assistance from ORNL for guidance in selecting a commercially available low-cost metal combustor alloy able to withstand harsh operating conditions. Under a work for others agreement funded by Envirofit, ORNL provided ongoing alloy specification and impurity tolerance input and assisted with the design and interpretation of corrosion studies to assess the durability of candidate alloys. ORNL also performed advanced characterization of corrosion products on laboratory and field-tested metal components.

Caleb Wild participates in St. Jude’s Trike-a-Thon during First Baptist Concord’s “Week of the Young Child,” part of the church’s Westlake campus WEE program. The Trike-a-Thon raised more than $2,200 for St. Jude’s Hospital. “Week of the Young Child” also featured a parade, visits from the Chick-fil-A cow and First Baptist Concord’s clown ministry and presentations of two Biblical puppet shows, “Zachaeus” and “Peter on the Water.”

Keller Williams Realty Honors Veterans: Over 60 Keller Williams’ real estate agents participated in Red Day, a nationwide day of community service sponsored by Keller Williams International. Each year, Keller Williams Realty offices across the county are asked to select a project where agents can give back to the communities that support their careers in real estate. The Red Day theme comes from a simple three word phrase; Renew, Energize, and Donate. For the second year, Knoxville agents cleaned the grounds and head stones at the East Tennessee Veterans Cemetery located on Lyons View Pike in West Knoxville. Over 5400 head stones were brushed and washed over the course of 8 hours by the local agents. “We like the idea of cleaning the cemetery in honor of Memorial Day. It’s a project that touches a lot of people in the Knoxville area. Our people quickly realize the gravity of the sacrifices made by those who are buried there. It is rewarding to give something back to those who helped secure the freedoms we enjoy every day. Red Day and our work at the East Tennessee Veteran’s Cemetery supports our vision to have lives worth living, careers worth having, and businesses worth owning,” says Chuck Fethe, Red Day Project Leader. Event sponsors included Concord Title, Mortgage Investor’s Group, Statewide Pest Control, and Bentley’ Home Inspections.
