BOMA approves Impact Fee study ■

TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com

Farragut developers might still see Impact Fees as Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen approve a study to determine how it wants to proceed with imposing an Impact Fee to improve roads. The Board voted 3-2 to approve the Impact Fee study and contract with Duncan & Associates

for $64,460 to implement the study during its Thursday, May 28, meeting. While Mayor Ralph McGill, Vice Mayor Dot LaMarche and Alderman Ron Pinchok voted to approve the study. Alderman Bob Markli voted against it. Alderman Ron Honken was absent. “”I think the Town touts itself as being self-sustaining and not having a Property Tax,” Markli said. “Now, we are talking about

imposing an Impact Fee.” Markli said he thinks the Impact Fee is a Property Tax. “The argument I hear is the developer needs to pay his fair share of the road improvements,” Markli said. He added the fee is passed down to the property owner. “I think this is a really poor way for the small amount of benefit the Town will receive to finance its streets,” he said. “It’s

discrimatory, it’s unfair, it’s disproportionate. “I can’t support it. I must oppose it in the strongest terms,” he added. “I’m trying to see both sides,” LaMarche said, asking what other suggestions Markli had to pay for road improvements. “We have pretty good roads in Town, but after 35 years we’ve put parks and recreation and historical buildings ahead,” Markli

said. “I think we need to look at our priorities.” He added he did not think landowners should bear the burden of improving roads. “Well, we’ve had discussion on this,” McGill said, moving to approve the study and calling for a vote. LaMarche seconded his motion. “We are studying this issue in order to have a more predictable See IMPACT FEE on Page 4A

Suggesting redistricting to help alleviate public schools overcrowding, while also suggesting Knox County Schools/Board of Education sell off property to help raise funds toward building new schools, Knox County Mayor Tim Burchett fired shots at the KCS budget. “Our total county budget is $747,189,546 … for schools, $435 million. … We’ve put $56 million new dollars in education since I took office,” Burchett said as featured speaker at The Rotary Club of Farragut’s Wednesday, May 20, meeting at Fox Den Country Club. “New spending within the county’s Capital Improvement Plan includes $16.2 million for schools. It funds everything except for the three new schools requested by the Board of Education,” Burchett added about schools including a proposed Hardin Valley middle school. “The growth in the schools’ budget requests is outSee BURCHETT on Page 4A

Drive, Farragut, will feature a full breakfast and presentation at 8 a.m. from Dr. William Bass, forensic anthropologist known for his research on human osteology and human decomposition, and Jon Jefferson, author and documentary writer and producer. The two will premier their latest book in the popular “Body Farm” fiction series. “We’re very pleased and quite honored to have them back again

to introduce their latest book, ‘The Breaking Point,’ and this is on the first day of the release of the book,” Bettye Sisco, Chamber CEO/president, said.

Farragut has an approved balanced budget for fiscal year 2016. Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen passed unanimously the 2016 budget during its meeting Thursday, May 28. “I am pleased to present to you a balanced draft budget for the fiscal year 2016, which begins on

July 1, 2015,” Town administrator David Smoak said. “I think you’ve done a great job,” Vice Mayor Dot LaMarche said before making a motion to approve the budget. The budget document showed a “10 percent increase” in its general fund budget, Smoak said. The general fund budget shows revenues estimated at $9,175,451, 10 percent over the

budget amount of 2015 revenues, which totaled $8,343.501. “Much of that is from the Local Sales Tax,” Smoak said, estimating those revenues at $5.2 million in 2016. “We’ve had a pretty good run in Local Sales Tax over the last couple of years. “The Town has continued to see modest increases in its Sales Tax revenues, which make up

Judy LaRose, executive director of Ramsey House, was deemed to have both the expertise and familiarity with town of Farragut’s historic Campbell Station Inn/Russell House to contribute advice toward its restoration, management and use. “I’ve thought about it a lot since I’ve [recently] gone through the house. For every upside there’s a downside. … It takes a lot of money and you don’t make your money off of tourists,” LaRose, a former Town resident, said as featured guest during the latest Campbell Station Inn Committee meeting Wednesday, May 20, in Town Hall boardroom. “Because I lived just down the street from this for 14 years and

This Penske 26-foot truck lost control on Northshore Drive, about a half mile west of Concord Road-Northshore roundabout, and blocked traffic for hours Wednesday afternoon, May 27. No one was injured and no other vehicles were part of the crash, which happened around 11:30 a.m. according to Knox County Sheriff’s Officer Glenn Simerly. Simerly said the driver advised he was trying to move over in his eastbound lane because a westbound vehicle “‘was as close to the yellow line as I was,’” causing the truck to run off the narrow shoulder and flip onto its side, blocking both lanes.

makes it great to introduce books that will be a best seller at our Chamber event.” Jefferson and Bass write under the name Jefferson Bass, collaborating to create the “Body Farm” series, she added. “Dr. Bass is the one who created The Body Farm at The University of Tennessee,” Sisco said. Although currently retired after years of teaching at UT, Bass remains active doing research at the UT Anthropological Research Facility, also known as The Body Farm. Before writing books, Jefferson was a staff science writer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, an educator and administrator at Planned Parenthood of East Tennessee, freelance magazine and newspaper journalist as well as a documentary writer and producer.

Bass brings the details of his forensic studies to the books while Jefferson combines the truth with fiction, Sisco said, adding the two collaborate long distance with Bass in Tennessee and Jefferson in Florida. “It’s interesting how they formulated the books when they were in two different places,” she said. Bass and Jefferson will be available after the presentation to answer questions and sign books. “Do not miss this special event,” Sisco said. As space is limited, tickets are sold in advance. Tickets are $30 for members, $40 for non-members and $275 for tables of 10 persons. Sisco said people can register and pay online. Paypal payment is available, or attendees can call the Chamber office, 865-675-7057, to register and to purchase tickets.

• On May 26 at around 6:12 p.m., Knox County Sheriff’s Office responded to Bancroft Lane for a burglary to a vehicle complaint. Complainant/victim reported that on May 26 at around 5:50 p.m. she went to the Farragut Park [Founder’s Park], 407 N. Campbell Station Road, to walk her dogs. When the victim left her vehicle (silver Infiniti G35 with Tennessee license plate) parked in a parking space the vehicle was intact and secure with the victim’s purse sitting on the passenger floorboard. On May 26 at around 6:05 p.m., the victim returned to her vehicle and found that the passenger front window had been shattered and the victim’s purse had been taken. Victim then went to her residence, off Bancroft Lane, and called 911. While KCSO was at the victim’s residence the victim used a computer tablet and was able to track a location on her cell phone that came up as a Canton Hollow Road address. KCSO officers responded to that location. KCSO recovered the cell phone and a wallet with the victim’s license and credit cards in it. The items were found in the wooded area near the Canton Hollow Road address. Victim does not suspect anyone at this time. Value of the loss is $750. • On May 26, a Buttonwood Lane complainant advised between April 15 and May 22, an unknown suspect tried to file

their taxes with both victims’ identities. The complainant filed for an extension on April 15. He received a letter on May 22 from the IRS advising him if he had not filed his taxes contact them. When he contacted the IRS they confirmed the suspect tried to file their taxes. • On May 26, a Providence Road complainant advised KCSO she had listed a wedding dress for sale on Craigslist and she was contacted at some point in April concerning the dress by an unknown female suspect wanting to purchase the dress. Complainant advised the suspect stated they would send her a cashier’s check in the mail for payment for the dress. Complainant advised the check was for more money than she was selling the dress and after contacting the suspect they asked her to send $900 to a suspect in Jemison, Ala., who, she was told, was the seamstress. Complainant advised she had deposited the check at First Tennessee Bank off Parkside Drive and after waiting a few days she withdrew the $900 for the seamstress to send by MoneyGram, but shortly after found from First Tennessee Bank the cashier’s check was fake and was able to cancel the money order. • On May 27, an 60-year-old Applegate Lane victim stated she was contacted via telephone May 26 at 5 p.m. by a male who

identified himself as Jason and who had an Indian accent. She said he indicated he was with the Internal Revenue Service. She stated he told her the IRS was going to be filing a lawsuit against her. According to the victim, the suspect told her to avoid this she would need to go to Walmart and get two MoneyGrams — one for $1,500 and one for $2,286. The $1,500 one was to be made payable to a named suspect and the second one was made payable to another named suspect. The victim advised she sent both MoneyGrams. She said the suspect told her the $2,286 did not go through. She stated she went back to Walmart and got the $2,286 back. The victim said the suspect told her to go to CVS and get the MoneyGram for the $2,286. According to the victim, she went to CVS to get the MoneyGram and was told $2,200 was the most they would send. She said she sent the $2,200. Last night the victim stated the suspect called back and stated it still hadn’t come through. According to the victim, she was told it was too late to check on it and the suspect was to call her back today. In the process of filing this report her cell phone rang and it was the suspect but she did not answer. The victim is going to contact MoneyGram to see if the $2,200 See COPS on Page 5A

Steve Wiley

“Last year, I was in severe heart failure. But look at me now!” A heart attack damaged Steve’s heart so badly that it began to fail. He could only walk a few steps without being exhausted. One major hospital told him his only options were an artiﬁcial heart or a heart transplant, for which he wasn’t a good candidate. But Tennova gave him the opportunity to be part of a clinical trial for a revolutionary device that could be implanted during a minimally invasive procedure. “The relief was instant,” said Steve. “Without Tennova, I’d probably be gone now. Instead, I can spend quality time with my wife, play ball with my grandkids, and hear their laughter.”

Tennova is bringing leading-edge heart care to our community. For more information about our heart care or to see more of Steve’s story, visit Tennova.com. To ﬁnd a doctor, call 1-855-TENNOVA (836-6682). If you’re experiencing a medical emergency, call 911.

townview: Park goers will now see blue, clearly-marked recycling cans throughout McFee Park that provide an easy way to recycle appropriate materials instead of throwing them in the waste can. Single-stream recycling — also available for staff at the Farragut Town Hall — is part of the Town’s efforts to become a more sustainable community. In 2014, approximately 1 , 0 5 5 Ron pounds of Honken recyclable materials Alderman — including paper, aluminum, cardboard, plastic and steel — were collected for recycling at the Town Hall. We hope to see that number increase this year with the ease of single-stream recycling cans at McFee Park. Planning for this project began with the staff sustainability team to gauge interest and feasibility. Upon agreement that this would be very beneficial for citizens and staff alike — and since it is in line with Farragut’s sustainability goals — coordination of the project moved forward. Although the singlestream recycling program is

being funded in our budget, the Town has been approved to receive a recycling rebate through the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation’s Division of Solid Waste Management. The rebate will cover 50 percent of the funds spent to implement the project. Recycling offers many benefits both for individuals and the community we live in, including: personal health and wellbeing; less pressure on landfills; job creation; retaining local employers; generating tax revenue; producing economic development opportunities; energy security and more natural resources for future generations. We encourage you to join us in this effort to create a more sustainable Farragut by being mindful of recycling when you visit McFee Park. We look forward to adding recycling cans at all Town parks as our budget allows. In 2015, the Office of Sustainability will also offer an LED lightbulb exchange — thanks to a $1,000 community grant from the Turkey Creek Walmart on Parkside Drive — at our Celebrate Your Parks event on Sept. 27. More details will be available about this event on our website and in the local media. To stay up-to-date on Farragut’s sustainability practices — and for helpful tips regarding recycling, energy and water conservation, and more — visit townoffarragut.org/sustainability.

Budget

The second largest revenue source was State Sales Tax revenues, projected at $1.4 million, $50,000 less than 2015 but the same as 2014 budgeted State Sales Tax revenues. “We anticipate the other revenue sources should remain stable over the next year as well,” he added.

From page 1A

approximately 54 percent of the overall revenue for the town of Farragut,” Smoak said. He attributed that increase to the growth in Turkey Creek development and the addition of big box businesses.

Russell From page 1A

watched that house, I just had all kinds of ideas about what it should be. … It would be wonderful to make it some kind of café and maybe office space upstairs. … But the food business is risky,” she added. If choosing that route, “You

would definitely go with an outside contractor,” LaRose said. Renting out “events” in the house such as “small weddings and corporate functions … is a lot of work, you’d have to plan them at least a year in advance,” LaRose said. However, LaRose estimated the Town could make “$10,000 to $12,000 easily” per month with rentals.

Farragut: You Done Bad Yes, I am writing about the new logo and “tag-line” recently announced by the town of Farragut. The logo is a circle with two futuristic F’s (?) in it and the “tag-line” (upper case) lies over the name of the Town (lower case letters) to the right of the logo. The tag-line reads: “LIVE CLOSE* GO FURTHER.” While purists might debate the use of “further,” rather than “farther,” such is not my issue. Nor is the interpretation of the logo my issue here. My issue is strictly the incorrect grammar in the first part of the tag-line (LIVE CLOSE). As we know, adjectives (CLOSE)

are not used to modify verbs (LIVE). An adverb is needed and the most obvious one is “closely.” If used, “closely” probably does not connote the intended meaning for this tag-line (to me both words make me think of the ghetto slums of the inner city, which is probably not the intention of the Town.) It might be argued that “LIVE CLOSE” is not a sentence and grammatical rules do not apply. I do not accept this, nor would most people, because it would still be grammatically incorrect and would sound wrong. If this oversight were in oral conversation, we would overlook it. Likewise, if it were in a memo,

or similar document, issued by the Town, we would ignore it. However, this new tag-line is to be widely used for public relations purposes over an extended period of time. The error needs to be corrected before the tagline is used and reflects badly on the Town. Farragut, you can do better. Better?? Perhaps that is a word that can serve as an adverb (defined as: to a higher standard), one that might well go into the new tag-line (LIVE BETTER GO FURTHER)? Think about it.

Burchett

added. “Our finance people went over that with him, my Chief of Staff went over that with him. “They knew what they were getting yet they were trying to play this political football and flip it on us.” To help solve imbalances in KCS enrollments and reduce bus-riding time for children, Burchett suggested “a comprehensive redistricting plan. … Let’s look at that first” before committing to building new schools. Asked by a RCF member if redistricting would “eliminate the need for any new schools,” including a Hardin Valley middle school, Burchett said, “I think it will.”

However, when that same RCF member followed up by asking, “So, redistricting would solve the West Knoxville overcrowding problem?” Burchett answered, “No, but I think it could help, though. “… I know we have an overcrowding issue here,” Burchett added. “But let’s look at everything before we have a tax increase.” Burchett said Board of Education could sell off a wellknown downtown Knoxville building. “We’ve been trying to get them to sell the [Andrew Johnson] building since before I took office,” he said. “… And the building where they warehouse all their equipment.”

with improving the road,” he said. “The Town will be responsible logistically and financially for those activities,” adding it would be hard to say at this time how much they would be responsible. “The purpose of the Development Fee is to offset the Town’s cost of the portion of the road that is directly linked to the development,” Palmer added. “It is hard to determine at this point, without the study, how much each party will have to contribute. “The overall goal, of course, is to ensure a well-maintained, safe vehicular and pedestrian circulation system for the Town residents and people traveling around Farragut,” he said. Palmer said the study was identified as priority in the Town’s

Strategic Plan and was reflected in the 2015 work program. In late 2014, the Town published a request for qualifications from qualified consulting firms to conduct a complete study of the Town’s infrastructure, needs assessment and feasibility of implementing development fees for improving roads, Palmer said. “We currently do not have a Town-wide fee structure in place,” he added. “The Everett Road Corridor Improvement Fee is specific to Everett Road. “At this time, our regulations require some road improvements for particular types of development fronting substandard roads but all other developer-related contributions have been negotiated through a cost share agreement with the Town,” he said.

From page 1A

pacing our countywide revenue growth. That means we will not be able to pay for annual operations for these schools we would be building. They sent us a budget that was $6 million out of whack in the first place.” Burchett estimated “$3 to $4 million operational cost” per school each school year “on top of the $6 million we’re already out of whack.” “… Superintendent [Dr. Jim McIntyre Jr.] acts surprised on the day we presented the budget [May 11] … he and I met over a month before that and we went over that with him,” Burchett

process for developers and one that is fair and consistent from one development to the next,” Town assistant administrator Gary Palmer said. “It premature at this time to know what the study will determine is an appropriate fee for future development and how that fee will be distributed,” he added. Palmer said he did not see a scenario in which the Town does not contribute toward the cost of road improvements. “Outside of the cost of the actual construction, there will be some level of professional analysis/appraisals, right-of-way acquisition, design and engineering and other costs associated

Coming out of the loser’s bracket to win CBFO 11-13 League Softball Tournament, the Mets were both regular season and post-season champions.

But the runner-up Dodgers came out of a regular season slump to finish strong, as tournament runner-up, with first baseman Bailey Watson helping to motivate her team. “She told them if they won another game, she would swal-

low a live goldfish. And the next game they won she did that. And she told them if they won again she would eat crickets. And so I ordered some [flavored] crickets for her off of Amazon and she ate 11-13 CBFO on Page 7A

Finishing its inaugural season in early May, Farragut girls lacrosse team — featuring mostly Farragut High School players — enjoyed a winning season that included one especially “big” victory according to head coach Holly Kelly. “It went over really well. It was a life-changing experience for a couple of players,” Kelly added. For one of those players, “It put the exclamation point on her senior year,” Kelly added. Finishing with a 13-12 overall record, “That’s a lot of wins for our inaugural year,” Kelly said about a season that runs from midFebruary into May. “We were very pleased. We were on a roll at the end; we went 9-2 in our last 11 games,” she added. “The momentum picked up when we beat Catholic’s varsity team. That was in early April. That was a big win and it kind of got us Photo submitted started.” Calista Stripling, Farragut freshman, advances Farragut’s team “was kind the ball as teammate Emma Hill, also a freshman, offers support during a game last season. of a combination of varsity and JV,” Kelly said. “We didn’t have a formal, designated team that was varsity team and a formal JV team. We had 27 players on the roster.” Individually for Farragut, two players earned Second Team Allregion honors. “We had Linden Perkins, she’s our Hardin Valley [Academy] girl, a defender,” Kelly said about the junior. “And [sophomore] Christa Hill, she literally played every position on the field, including goalie.” Already having established a booster club, Farragut Ladies Lacrosse Club, Kelly said her program for high school girls is being fed by “about 20 players on the middle school team, and roughly 20 players that are in the K-5 program.” Comparing her region to major college basketball, “Seymour is the Kentucky of our region [East Tennessee Region 2], they just blew away everybody,” Kelly said about how that program grew from being winless in its first season to its success in 2015 as regional playoff representative. “They’ve been at it for about five years.” Other ET Region 2 teams in Tennessee Girls Lacrosse Association are “Catholic, West Warriors, Sevier County, Gatlinburg-Pittman and Pigeon Forge,” Kelly added. As for summer high school lacrosse, Kelly said “four of my rising ninth-graders” are playing with Smoky Mountain Shine Travel program from Sevier County. “They’re coached by college-level coaches.” Kelly said she “anticipates” being ready to have separate varsity and junior varsity teams in 2016. Margaret Veach, who as an FHS junior started out playing defense before being moved to midfield, said she had never played lacrosse before joining Kelly’s team. “My friend Natalie [Merritt, a senior] ... she got people to join the team. ... Her and her mom knew that I was pretty athletic, so they asked me to join the team,” Veach said. Saying she improved her hand-eye coordination by bouncing a ball

Jumping ahead quickly in both games against the Dodgers, the Mets won game one going away, 14-3, with five-runs each in the first and third innings. In game two, the Mets started fast with four runs in the bottom of the first inning and won the tourney crown with an 8-5 victory. “It was tough. We played the Braves, the Yankees, the Red Sox and then had to beat the Dodgers twice tonight to win the whole thing,” said Mets head coach Cheri Hogrefe, whose team lost to the Dodgers earlier in the tournament forcing them into the loser’s bracket. Explaining her team’s formula for success, “A lot of it was our baserunning tonight,” Hogrefe said. “Just listening to the coaches, knowing when to steal home and when not to. “Defensively, Denver [Hogrefe] came through pitching tonight,” the coach added. “Caroline [Jacokes] has been starting for us, and she had maybe her best game ever last night versus the Red Sox. “And Alexis Kochenderfer had two amazing hits tonight and

Farragut area residents are finding fresh fruits and vegetables available at Dixie Lee Farmers Market. Dixie Lee Farmers Market is open from 9 a.m. to noon Saturdays between the first weekend in May until the last weekend in October at the Renaissance | farragut near Dixie Lee Junction. Saturday, May 16, neighboring residents and visitors from around the area strolled around the stalls to find fresh vegetables, meats, jewelry and crafts at the market. Breakfast is served at Mind Yer P’s and Q’s during market hours, and attendees can browse through an average of 20 vendors on a given Saturday, said Virginia Cannon, co-owner of Dixie Lee Farmers Market with her husband, Jeff Cannon. “We were driving from Knoxville and saw the tents and sign, so we came in to see what they had to sell,” Randy Schloss of Lenoir City said. “I try to come every week,” Rosalind Cadigan of Farragut said. “I’d rather buy the veggies here than in the supermarket. We’ve got to support the local economy here.” Area attendees also can learn about growing vegetables and other plants at Knox County Master Gardeners program booth. “I’ve been blessed by stopping here,” Schloss said. “I got information on my gardening.” “I come here regularly,” Jan McKinney of Lenoir City said. “I’ve been coming since it started. I like these markets and I like to support them.” Dixie Lee Farmers Market opened in spring 2008. “This came about because I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis,” Virginia Cannon said. “I was reluctant to take the many medications that are commonly prescribed for this ailment and decided that the first smart thing to do was change my diet.” She said she frequented farmers’ markets in Oak Ridge, as she worked in Oak Ridge, but the trip was quite a drive for her. Cannon originally wanted to have the market at Two Rivers Church at Dixie Lee Junction, but she had trouble in getting permits and permission from the church. Cannon said her boss, Steve Irving, suggested she contact Deron Little, owner of Season’s

The market opened with seven vendors and 200 customers. Today, she said it can fit up to 35 vendors comfortably. “We don’t always have that many, of course, but throughout the season we always have at least four farmers,” Cannon said. Among those are Crosswind Farm, Colvin Family Farm, Davis Farm and Abundant Acres, which have been with the market since its first or second season. “Vendors like Stony Clay Station [stoneware pottery], JB’z Designs [custom jewelry] and VG’s Bakery have been there since day one,” she said. “I had a friend doing this market,” Maryville resident Sue Tarwater of Baker’s Creek Honey

CBWW, Humane Society team up Partnership is to help match homeowners and pets

■

TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com

Coldwell Banker Wallace & Wallace Realtors in Farragut, is one of the local Coldwell-Banker branches to partner with Humane Society of the Tennessee Valley to help match homeowners and pets. As part of that campaign, CBWW, 10815 Kingston Pike, Farragut, gave away a doghouse Wednesday, April 22, as part of a drawing during one of its recent open houses. Teresa Guy, agent, attended the drawing on behalf of open house attendee Josh Flynn. Consumers could visit any CBWW open house and enter to win a blue doghouse. The partnership between CBWW and Humane Society of the Tennessee Valley was intended to keep owned pets in homes and find new homes for shelter pets, Amber Mullins, communications manager with Humane Society of the Tennessee Valley, said. “The partnership is part of CBWW’s nationwide project, Homes for Dogs, designed to help 20,000 shelter animals find ‘furever’ homes this year,” Mullins said. Coldwell Banker Wallace and Wallace Realtors has been familyowned and operated for nearly 80 years, Kate Spears of CBWW said. “Locally we chose to partner with Humane Society of the

Tennessee Valley because of the great mission that [Humane Society has],” she said. “It all started with a nationwide adopt-a-pet website,” Claudia Stallings, principal broker with CBWW in Farragut, said. “We hope to encourage the adoption of 20,000 dogs nationwide. “We are collecting supplies they need for their homeless animals, so we are accepting supplies in our office to make sure the Humane Society gets them,” Stallings added. “I’m a dog lover,” she said. “I feel like this [campaign] gets to the heart of the matter and speaks to who we are as a company. We care about animals, and want to make sure clients are cared for and animals become part of their families. “Homes are improved by animals,” Stallings said. “They make a home feel more like a home.” Stallings said Farragut CBWW intends to bring the nationwide event to this community. People can go to the website, cbww.com/dogs, where they will find a link to adopt a pet. “We are committed to our community and saw this as a way to help consumers give back to the Humane Society," Spears said. Every year HSTV is approached by pet owners purchasing a new home and who feel they can no longer keep their pet, Mullins See CBWW on Page 6B

Farragut area families can spend quality time fishing as part of Free Fishing Day, when they can fish without a license. Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency, Knox County Parks and Recreation and Tennessee Valley Sportsman Club have partnered for the annual free event, scheduled to take place from 8 a.m. to noon Saturday, June 6, at The Cove at Concord Park, 11808 S. Northshore Drive. Sgt. Joe Durnin, event organizer with TWRA, said he anticipates about 400 will attend this year’s event, which has been the average for the past few years. The fishing day is geared toward families and groups, such as Big Brothers Big Sisters or Boy Scouts, who are looking for a planned outdoor event, Durnin said. “I think it will entertain them,” he said. “This area has so many opportunities for fishing and this event provides that experience.” While parents are encouraged to bring their children for a day of fishing, Durnin said the event

Farragut Intermediate School staff members won while striving to improve their health. The school received a $500 check, presented Monday, April 20, by Premier Surgical Associates, because the school had the highest percentage of Knox County School staff members participate in the school system’s eWellness program, Kimberly O’Neal Wilson of Premier Surgical Associates, said. “Oh my gosh,” Niki Adams, one of FIS’ eWellness participants and technology teacher, said. “I’m so excited. I’ve been doing this since it started. This is the first time we’ve won. I never thought we would win that kind of money.” “It’s exciting,” Jackie Dutton FIS physical education teacher and eWel-lness participant, said. “We are going to do something with fitness to share the money with the school.” “I think it’s awesome,” FIS Principal Reggie Mosley said. “It’s a great connection with what we’re doing districtwide as it relates to living a healthy

lifestyle. “This is a great effort on the part of our teachers who volunteered to do this outside of school time,” Mosley said. Ramona Dew, Knox County Schools coordinated school health specialist, said her office coordinates the eWellness program with the schools. It is an eight-week diet and physical activity program, developed by Betty Greer, PhD, RD and professor of family and consumer sciences, to promote healthy eating. “We partnered with different businesses to provide incentives for the staff participating in the eWellness program,” Dew said. Premier Surgical Associates was one of those businesses. “Premier Surgical congratulates Farragut Intermediate staff for making strides to improve their lives and health,” Kevin Burris, Premier Surgical Associates CEO said. “The healthy eating habits and exercise goals recommended by the eWellness program can make a big difference in preventing or controlling diseases such as See FMS on Page 9B

Local, area residents clean up, workout ■ TAMMY CHEEK

tcheek@farragutpress.com

Farragut and area residents cleaned up while getting some exercise. Walkers gathered Wednesday, April 22, for Keep Knoxville Beautiful’s first Trash Run event along Turkey Creek Greenway and Campbell Lakes Drive in Farragut. The Trash Run, sponsored by Keep Knoxville Beautiful, was part of Earth Day, Allison Teeters, Keep Knoxville Beautiful executive director, said. Participants were invited to celebrate afterward in Wild Wing Café, where they received a voucher allowing them to eat. Teeters said during the event, participants picked up 220 pounds of litter from the greenway and sidewalks. “They picked up a lot of garbage,” she said. “I will tell you we picked up a bumper on the greenway, where no car can drive, so you explain it to me.” Besides receiving a T-shirt for participation in the event, participants were eligible to win drawings for door prizes, Teeters said. “This is one of our community events,” Kevin Nguyen said of TVA Employees Credit Union team members he respresented. “Our credit union supports many community events within each community we are located,” Cindy Floyd, TVA Employees Credit Union, said. “I was pretty ecstatic when I heard about it. I thought it was an actual 5K, but picking up trash is not bad,” Nguyen said. “We are all doing it for Food

City,” another participant, Sandra Trent, said. “I told everyone at school I got a job,” Cheyanne Stemey, 6, said. “I love it,” Trent, the ecology coordinator at Food City, said. “It goes back to the environment.” Kayla Davis said she participated as part of the Food City team and as part of her tnAchieves scholarship requirements at Pellissippi State. “I like doing it,” she added. Josh Smith, another Food City employee, said the store has a representative on the Keep Knoxville Beautiful board of directors. “So we came to support him a little bit,” Smith said, then added, “I’m excited. It’s for a good cause. We should do more of these.” Brenden Marquis, also with Food City, said he participated because he thought the Trash Run was a good cause. “It’s great to actually get out here and help,” Marquis said. “I’m glad to be out here, helping out and doing something for the community,” Steven Maynard said. Beth Hamby said she participated simply to help. “Somebody’s got to do it,” Hamby added. “I pick up trash because it drives me crazy to se trash on the ground,” Susie Stout, who serves on KKB board, said. Besides the Trash Run, KKB plants daffodil bulbs in the spring Teeters said. She approached Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen with a funding request for $1,500.

3 ways you'll lose weight and keep it off Weight Watchers Says I Should Weigh 500 Pounds! You must want to lose weight so that you’ll feel better, look better and be healthy. In order to experience the change you want, b e i n g aware of what you’re thinking is crucial. I’m working with a young woman who Pam is slashing Young carbs from Make it her life and because Fun! I’ve been thro-ugh the minefield of tho-ughts that occur when one cuts addictive carbs (especially sugar) out of one’s diet, I’m able to be a critical step ahead of what she’ll most likely encounter on her journey to stay on a healthy diet and what she’ll confront is her thinking. 3 Reasons You Will Lose Weight and Keep it Off Reason 1. If you were on a high fat, low carb diet, you’d never count calories and you could cut the amount of exercise you do in half. Weight Watchers is good at addressing the psychological issues of dieting and when I was attending those meetings I found that valuable, however I no longer agree with the WW theory of calories-in-calories-out, because it just isn’t true. If it were, I’d weigh about 500 pounds today! Reason 2. If you are disciplined. I was a strict disciplinarian with my three children and they

learned at a very early age, to behave with good manners, eat at the table like ladies and gentlemen and, mind without a countdown to some unknown penalty. That education I provided for them has served them well. If you’ve read any of my latest books, you know Nelly is my inner child. When I speak of an inner child I’m not referring to some damaged, hurt part of myself, although I know some do because of a traumatic childhood. For me, Nelly is an immature voice of entitlement as well as the spontaneous, lighthearted, optimistic voice that keeps me feeling eternally young. Are you trying too hard? Occasionally, I get emails from those who just don’t get this inner child concept, but when they finally do, they get excited about working with that part of themselves in a very gentle and understanding way, just as a good parent would do with a child who is out of control and needs discipline. This excerpt from my book, The Mouth Trap: the butt stops here! illustrates how you can feel when you find out you have an inner child that you never knew you had(and everyone has one). Once you know about him/her, then you get to work with that part of you that has been sabo-

ship with your inner child, to find out you have one can be a shock, like Carl had. I hope the conversation between Carl and Michelle helps you to see the position you were in when you didn’t know about this part of you. Reason 3. If you learned to know, understand and love YOU. See your inner child as having whatever problem you want to change right now, and think how you would handle a “real” child with that problem if you were put in its care. When you become a kind, loving and nurturing parent to your inner child, your prob-

taging your good intentions. For a minute pretend you’re a guy about 40 years old and you get a phone call. “Ring, ring, ring?” “Carl, here, what’s up?” “Hi Carl, guess who?” “Uhhh, I don’t know, say somethin’ else.” “Well, does Aspen ring a bell?” “Aspen? Who is this?” “It’s Michelle.” “Michelle? Michelle Aspen?” “No, silly, Michelle Rockford, Aspen Square.” “Michelle Rockford, Aspen Square? Oh yeah! Hey you’re a great skier!” “Yeah, we did a little more than ski together.” “Yeah, we did! What can I do ya for?” Clears throat, “Well, it was nine years ago today that we were, you know, together?” “Wow, it doesn’t seem that long ago!” “I know, but guess what?” “What?” “You’ve got a kid and I can’t take care of it anymore.” “A kid?” “Yeah, I’m done! It’s your turn now. Oh, and one thing you should know. The kid is overweight and you’re gonna need to figure out what to do or it’s gonna like end up in the circus if you know what I mean.” If you haven’t had a relation-

lems will be easy to solve. That’s why your first goal in changing your life is to use this problem as an opportunity to get to know, love and take care of YOU. Your little one is waiting for you.

You’ll find many musings, videos of Pam in the kitchen preparing delicious meals, videos on how to get organized and ways to lose weight and get your finances in order, all from a reformed SLOB’s point of view.

FHS History Team ties for fifth at Nationals

■

TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com

Farragut High School History Bowl varsity team tied for fifth place at this year’s National History Bee & Bowl competition. Ten Farragut High students participated in the event, a history quiz tournament for students across America, April 24 through April 26 at Crystal Gateway Marriott in Arlington, Va. The varsity team, consisting of juniors and seniors, tied with Centennial, Lexington and Bethlehem Central high schools. Meanwhile, FHS’ junior varsity team went 4 and 6, so it did not make the playoffs, Alex Shaffer, FHS social studies and U.S. history teacher, said. “If I had to sum up our feelings about tying for fifth, I'd have to say we were ecstatic,” Shaffer said. “I’m very proud of them.” Farragut High’s varsity team consisted of five students while its junior varsity was made up of the other five participants. “They are great students, and they know their history,” he said. “They put in a lot of practice outside of school. “Due to the age limits of the History Bowl competition, this was the varsity team's first year actually competing against other varsity teams from around the country,” Shaffer said. “To give such a strong showing in their first year really helped build confidence and prepare us to return to D.C. next year. “As a teacher I am extremely proud of both our [junior varsity] and varsity teams and could not ask for a better group of young men to go and compete,” Shaffer added. “It's all them, too. While I coordinate and help at practices, they're the ones who put in the most work and practice on their own time away from school. They really do amaze me.” He added the students would not have been able to compete without FHS Education Foundation’s support. “They helped pay for the substitute teacher and some other expenses related to the trip,”

The Cove From page 1B

is not just for youngsters. “There’s no limit to age group,” he said. “We invite adults who haven’t fished before. “What has always been at the forefront of our minds is the single parents,” Durnin said. “We don’t want them to feel intimidated if they don’t know how to fish. We have volunteers who can help them with anything from baiting to tying a hook to make it user-friendly.” ASA result, parents and group leaders can feel comfortable joining children in the fun, he said. While Knox County Parks and Recreation provides the park location, TWRA will stock catfish and provide the fishing equipment and several door prize drawings for children. Tennessee Valley Sportsman Club will provide free hotdogs and snacks, he said. Durnin said The Cove at Concord Park has been the location for Free Fishing Day since the event’s beginning close to 18 years ago. “That has always been the best location,” he said. “It’s the only one set up for the needs of the crowd that we have. “Knox County Parks and Recreation has always been partners, making sure the park is available and clean for the event,” Durnin said. Meanwhile, TWRA takes the lead, organizing the Free Fishing Day and making sure it happens. For more information, contact Jennifer Linginfelter, communications manager with Knox County Mayor Tim Burchett’s office at 865-215-4579, or Durnin, 865-755-4997.

Three Farragut High School History Bowl team members, from left, Daniel Yan, Kevin Hong and Ronik Sheth, take a break from the national History Bowl competition in April to see the sights in Washington, D.C.

Shaffer said. Farragut’s History Bowl students practice every Wednesday throughout the year at school, Shaffer said. “Anyone can practice,” he said. “The number of students we can take to nationals depends on their interest and how well they do at practice.” During the year, these students take part in regional matches so they can qualify for the national competition. He added one of those regional competitions, which took place last November, was held at FHS. Among the students who competed in the national History

Bowl, juniors Daniel Yan and Ronik Sheth said they enjoyed the experience. Last year, Yan got first place in the individual division of the History Bowl. The junior varsity team came in second out of 84 in the 2014 event, Shaffer added. “We really enjoy the competition because at the nationals there are really good history students, so there’s really a good opportunity to gain knowledge against others,” Yan said. “I’ve always liked history and have been reading about history since middle school, Ronik See FHS on Page 9B

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

The Clay family really didn’t want to part with recently weaned Chihuahua-mix puppies Chip, Ernie and Robbie — named after the 1960s TV show characters from “My Three Sons” — they took on as foster pet owners in mid-April. However, Chip, Ernie and Robbie were among dozens of pets ready to be adopted during 6th Annual Village Veterinary Medical Hospital Pet Fair at VVMC’s 11301 Kingston Pike location Saturday, May 2. A few hundred children and adults plus pet advocacy groups, Knox County Sheriff’s Office K-9 Unit, pet businesses and VVMC veterinarians were featured. “We were interested in possibly getting a second pet and we had a family meeting,” said Clay, who was joined at the fair by son, David, 14, twin daughters Allison and Meredith, 12, and family dog, Lacey, a havanese. “And my daughter, Meredith said, ‘Why don’t we considering fostering a pet?’” Meredith said about her suggestion, “One of my friends fosters with Small Breed Rescue of East Tennessee and she told me how much fun it was and how rewarding of an experience it was. “I looked into it, did my homework and now we’re here,” Meredith added. Since acquiring the dogs, “It’s been wonderful. They’ve not been the typical yippy Chihuahuas. They’ve been very fun to play with,” Clay said. “Lacey loves them,” Allison said. “We had to make sure Lacey wasn’t going to be aggressive with them,” Clay said. “She loves to go out there and play with them. They are good in your lap.

matching them with a cat or dog that fits their lifestyle and home.” As part of the partnership, CBWW will accept donations for HSTV's shelter wish list at its local offices and provides homebuyers with literature about HSTV.

“… We have a new opinion about the Chihuahua breed,” Clay added. “ … This has been a great activity for us as a family. The girls and David have been great taking the puppies out and taking care of them.” The overall experience as foster pet owners “helps us learn to be more responsible with animals,” Allison said. “We hope they find a forever family at one of these adoption

events,” Clay said. Although admitting losing Chip, Ernie and Robbie to adoption would be tough, Meredith was quick to add, “We’ll just do it again” as foster pet owners. Allison added, “We’ll just have something to look forward to.” Among the most popular fair booths featured four parrots from Parrot Mountain and Garden of Eden based in Pigeon Forge.

FIS art talent showcased at Town Hall ■

TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com

Farragut Intermediate School fifth-grader Michael Qi took home the Best of Show prize for his horse drawing during the 2015 Farragut Intermediate School Art Show. Michael’s work was one of the pieces displayed during the town of Farragut-and Farragut Arts Council-sponsored show, which took place Monday, April 27, through Friday, May 8, in Farragut Town Hall. Farragut Arts Council presented awards for Best in Show, as well as first, second and third place and during a reception Tuesday, May 5, in Town Hall. First-place winner was fifthgrader Olivia Layman for her Picasso horse art. Second place went to third-grader Elaina Conger for sunflowers art, and third place went to fourth-grader Cathlene Horwege for her landscape art. The reception allowed students and their parents to gather, enjoy refreshments, music by Farragut High School orchestra and see the artists’ works. “I think it’s exciting,” Bonnie Dalton, FIS art teacher, said. “It’s like a real art opening with the high school orchestra performing and refreshments. “I’m amazed at how excited the students are who got to be in the show,” she said. “We were supposed to have 25 students from each grade level, but we ended up adding a few more.” “This is awesome,” Reggie Mosley, FIS principal, said. “I can imagine how [the children] feel. “One of the things I talked to the art teachers about when I came [to FIS] was how we could put [the students] on stage,” he said. “This is it.” The show was initially scheduled for February but was postponed because of snow. Since the event was slated for a later date, Dalton said she wanted to put in some more students’ works. “My students who were entered in it were excited to come see the show,” she said. “I think it’s nice the Town Hall recognizes the students’ hard work, and they get to share it with the community,” Denise Christensen, the parent of FIS fifth-grader Jessica Christensen, said. “I thought it was a neat idea,” Jessica added.

Derby Doggie Day benefits local preservation group ■

TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com

Nine people and their canine friends were treated to a dinner at a Farragut home as part of a silent auction package on Derby Doggie Day, Sunday, May 3. Proceeds benefited local preservation group. “The local preservation group, Knox Heritage, hosts a fundraising event every September that offers both silent and live auction items for sale,” Annette Brun, Farragut resident since 2007 and board member for Knox Heritage, said. Brun and husband, Scott, provided a silent auction package last year that included a dinner for eight people and their pets at the Brun’s historic home in the Belleaire neighborhood. The package, which focused on the theme Derby Doggie Day, contained a catered meal for human guests, a basket filled with treats and other items for dogs, a fenced-in space for pets to explore and a dog sitter, Brun said. Knox Heritage member and Dr. Deborah Franklin, physician at The University of Tennessee physician, bought the package. “It’s a beautiful dog day of May,” Franklin said about the Derby Day party. She brought Ribeye and Mr. Martini, a standard poodle she adopted 10 years ago after looking on the Internet for a dog. “I was looking for love in all the wrong places,” she said. “I hit on

Burris added he partnered with the school to help promote the health and well-being of the staff and teachers in the school system. “We’re glad to do it,” Burris said. “We’re excited. Farragut Intermediate had the most participation in eWellness. Hopefully, they will use that $500 to promote the staff’s health.” “This is the first year to be able to offer the award,” Dew said. “There’s really no limits to what

Elementary school students from seven schools in the Knoxville area competed in the 15th Annual Tate’s Regional Science Fair. Judges from science, technology and engineering professions judged 82 entries from third-, fourth- and fifth-grade students to determine the winners. Students submitted their projects in one of three categories — earth, life or physical science — and completed an in-depth interview with a panel of judges.
