Concord Road project criticized

A plan to widen Concord Road from two lanes to five — with a center turn lane and medians — was met mostly with opposition during a public meeting at Farragut Town Hall Thursday, May 31.

TDOT took public comments on the road plan during the

informal meeting, which allowed citizens to look over maps and plans for the project and ask questions of individual TDOT employees. There wasn’t a public question-and-answer session, although TDOT did provide a court reporter for citizens to make comments on the record.

“All I want to know is why,” Carroll Hobbs said.

Many of the citizens in opposi-

tion at the meeting would be losing property — and some would be losing their homes — through right-of-way acquisition.

“I object. They want to take 20 feet of my front there,” Bill Coker said.

Grace Gault, who lives in Concord Farms, said her home would be taken.

“That’s my dream house. I don’t want to lose it,” she said.

TDOT’s Concord Road project includes widening Concord Road to five lanes — including a center turn lane — from Turkey Creek Road to Northshore Drive.

The turn lane will incorporate raised median islands, and the road also will feature bike lanes, curb and gutter, a concrete sidewalk on one side and an asphalt greenway on the other.

According to TDOT spokesman

Mark Nagi, the Concord Road project is still in preliminary stages. Right-of-way acquisition could begin early next year.

Lee Johnson and Anne Ralston, who own Callaway’s Landing, said the sidewalk, greenway and median “do nothing but increase cost and the amount of land that must be See CONCORD on Page 5A

McFee priced at $8 million BOMA approves McFee Park master plan

■

HEATHER BECK hbeck@farragutpress.com

An initial breakdown of McFee Park’s master plan — which Farragut’s Board of Mayor and Aldermen approved Thursday, May 24 — indicates the next phases of the park could cost more than $8 million.

The master plan depicts the ultimate goal for the 53 acres of land that make up McFee Park in the southwest quadrant of Farragut. Two phases of the park already have been completed, and they include rectangular playing fields, a large playground, splash pad, pavilions and parking and restrooms.

The new master plan includes a Frisbee golf course, two synthetic turf fields, tennis courts, a small and large dog park, another play structure, a pond and pier, walking trails and an interpretive trail along a historic road.

One option of the plan includes an amphitheater.

If a $500,000 amphitheater makes it into eventual construction plans, the rest of McFee Park will cost $8,040,135 to develop.

“We have basically doubled the size of McFee. We’re very excited about it,” parks and leisure services director Sue Stuhl said.

“I’m really impressed with the demographics of this design: there’s something for everybody,” Alderman Jeff Elliott said.

The Board approved the master plan with Alderman Ron Honken moving to accept it and Elliott seconding. Alderman Bob Markli voted against it.

“It’ll be a process,” Mayor Ralph McGill said of funding McFee Park.

The park’s master plan was designed by Barge, Waggoner, Sumner & Cannon, and representative Steve Fritts laid out three possible phases for the Board to consider.

HEATHER BECK hbeck@farragutpress.com

Farragut Municipal Planning Commission unanimously approved a concept plan for the future stages of the 53-acre McFee Park.

“I think this is going to be our signature park,” parks and leisure services director Sue Stuhl told commissioners during their meeting Thursday, May 17.

“I truly believe this will be a

destination park, and it will be our biggest,” she added.

At a late meeting of Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen, the park’s cost was revised to about $8 million from the figure FMPC heard, $6.9 million.

The park currently features two rectangular fields, two pavilions, a large play structure, walking trails and a splash pad.

Land around and behind the current park will be developed over the years, adding two syn-

thetic turf fields, tennis courts and a hitting wall, small and large dog parks, walking trails, additional pavilions, a Frisbee golf course, a “play trail” play structure for children and interpretive historical spots along an old Civil War-era road.

The park also could include an outdoor amphitheater.

“I think it’s a slam dunk,” Alderman Ron Honken said.

Following graduation, Dr. Frazier was commissioned as a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Air Force and was stationed at Wright Patterson A.F.B. Following military service, he completed his Master’s Degree at Ohio State University and was subsequently employed by the Atomic Power Division of Westinghouse in Pittsburgh, PA. He ultimately decided to pursue an academic career and moved to Baltimore, MD. Where he completed his Doctorate at Johns Hopkins University. He then received a one year NATO Post Doctorate Fellowship to complete advanced studies at Cambridge University in England. Following his time abroad, Dr. Frazier returned to Johns Hopkins to teach. He later became a member of the Faculty at the University Of Tennessee where he taught from 1968 until his retirement in 2000.

rom the early 1990s to the beginning of this century, "bigger is better" certainly was the mantra of the home-building industry. All across North America buyers could browse among home developments boasting homes of 3,000 square feet or larger and multiple bedrooms and bathrooms. But according to new data, home buyers are seeking less space today but more in green amenities.

Research by the Canadian Home Builders' Association has found that many people now desire smaller homes with multipurpose rooms and energy saving features. They're not ready to trade in their two- and three-car garages just yet, though. Plus, a survey of International Furnishings and Design Association members forecasts that McMansions will become a thing of the past and more emphasis will be placed on smaller, more ecofriendly homes. Family rooms will grow larger, as will kitchens. Other rooms in the home will disappear, including the living room.

Many homeowners and potential home buyers realize that with girth comes a cost. In today's fragile economy, the ability to cash in on the dream of homeownership may come at the compromise of a smaller, better-planned home.

According to Tim Bailey, the manager of Avid Canada, a research and consulting firm for the building industry, "While many consumers are willing to forgo space, they are not equating this with having to forfeit functionality. Design creativity is requisite to adapt to this changing preference."

Here are some things that you will and will not find in newer homes moving forward.

• The dining room is becoming extinct, with larger, eat-in-kitchen/entertaining spaces the norm. The kitchen will be the main room of the home and be renamed the "kitchen lounge."

• Separate rooms are evolving into spaces that

F

serve many different purposes.

• Although the sizes of bathrooms may be scaled back, the amenities will not. Spa-style bathrooms with luxurious products, high-tech features and televisions will be on the rise.

• The master bedroom suite may not shrink in size, but it could be combined to form a home office and exercise space.

• Expect to see more high-tech offerings, such as voice- or motion-activation devices in the home.

Lighting, entertainment gear, heating/cooling systems, and even blinds could be hooked up to a master control system.

• Thanks to an increasing number of people working from home, the presence of a dedicated home office is a given in newer homes.

Nearly 40 percent of industry forecasters say that they expect one in every home.

• Home storage solutions will also be a vital component of new homes. Builders will create clever solutions for mixing storage into more compact spaces.

• With aging Baby Boomers comprising a larger segment of home buyers, expect to see more one-level homes, or at least homes where there is a master suite and the majority of the living space on the first level.

Part of what is driving this trend is the cost of homes in relation to space and the increased interest in environmental conservation. Smaller, more efficient homes require less in terms of heating and cooling energy. They need less furniture, and new materials made from sustainable products help further fuel green initiatives in the building industry. Energy efficient homes are a main priority for buyers. Although the homes may be smaller, they will not be miniscule. And home buyers can expect a host of amenities that will make the smaller size of homes barely perceptible.

EDC talks community center, vacancies

Heather Beck/farragutpress

• Unanimously approved an amendment to Farragut Municipal Code to create minimum building façade requirements.

This ordinance was passed once by FMPC but sent back for further clarification after Farragut’s Board received citizen complaints and opted not to adopt it on second reading. The new regulations disallow buildings with exterior walls constructed of more than 15 percent metal, not including roofs and window frames.

FMPC From page 1A

“It seems like there’s something for everybody here,” FMPC chair Rita Holladay said.

Farragut consultant Barge, Waggoner, Sumner and Cannon, which also designed previous master plans for the park, drew up the plan.

“We’ve had a pretty thorough and lengthy planning process with the park,” BWSC spokesman Steve Fritts said.

In other business, FMPC:

The newest incarnation of this ordinance added doors to the list of items that wouldn’t be counted toward a metal construction percentage, and clarified that “façade” meant exterior walls.

Commissioner Ed Whiting asked if the Town had received additional criticism from developers, other than claims that the Town was “prescribing minutiae.”

“I’m curious if there were comments of a realistic nature,” he asked.

Farragut’s Economic Development Committee discussed how to fill empty commercial buildings, a downtown district and community center at its meeting Wednesday, May 2.

The downtown and vacant building conversations revolved around the Town’s land use plan, which is in the process of being formed. Public meetings for the land use plan were held in May. Ranking high on the perceived list of “what the community wants” is a community center, EDC members decided. And a great place to put one might be a vacant commercial building.

Town administrator David Smoak said the former Food City building — plus about 10 acres — was for sale for $2.1 million.

“It’s a great location. I don’t see it going back to retail ... it’s hard to see,” Knick Myers, Myers Bros. Holdings, said.

“That would be a phenomenal deal,” he added.

A Town committee has com-

pleted a study estimating building a community center from the ground up could cost about $15 million, and so far Farragut officials haven’t appropriated any dollars to such a project.

“There’s a lot of potential for that,” EDC chair Ginny McLainTate, BB&T, said of the Food City building.

Other ideas for filling vacant retail spaces include opening the Town to businesses such as call or tech centers, training facilities and colleges looking for satellite campuses.

“That’d be great. This area has a reputation for call centers,” McLain-Tate said.

Alderman Bob Markli asked how the Town could attract tenants who would revamp an existing building, rather than build a new one.

Myers said it was important to involve commercial realtors in the cause.

“In the past we’ve struggled with that, and that’s why we have people skip over the Town,” he said.

Farragut is preparing for a fun-filled summer with a wide array of events for adults, children and families.

The Town is taking registrations for its free “Movers and Shakers” program now, which encourages children to pursue physical activity over the summer break from school — whether that be walking, running, rollerblading, bicycling or swimming. The program rewards children based on the total length of time spent doing physical activities over the course of the summer.

In its seventh year, “Movers and Shakers” is open to children in kindergarten through 12th grade. The program began Monday, May 14, but children still can sign up and join by Friday, June 29.

“Movers and Shakers” ends Aug. 3.

New this year, the Town and Cool Sports: Home of the Icearium are partnering to offer a free ice skating party for those who complete Level 3 of the “Movers” program. The party will be held Aug. 13 and will include a healthy lunch and open skating.

Space also is filling up fast for the Town’s 25th Annual Independence Day Parade, which will begin at 9:30 a.m., Wednesday, July 4. Hundreds of parade participants and watchers will be situated along Kingston Pike from Lendon Welch Way to Boring Road. WATE-TV anchor Gene Patterson will be grand marshal.

Farragut has about 13 spots left open in the parade, so businesses, church groups and other entities still have a shot to make it in.

The deadline for registrations is Thursday, June 21, or when the Town receives 95 entries.

Entries often include antique and classic cars, floats and entertainment, as well as musical groups and bands.

The night before the parade, Farragut Business Alliance will host its third annual Red, White & Blues Festival beginning at 6:30 p.m., Tuesday, July 3, on land owned by Doug and Brenda Horne, adjacent to farragutpress, 11863 Kingston Pike. Tickets are $5 for adults and $2 for children under 12 at the door. No tickets will be pre-sold.

Red, White & Blues will feature entertainment by DJ John Rutherford, owner of Pro Audio, and Knoxville’s Dishwater Blonde, a funk/rock and R&B band. Food vendors include Archer’s BBQ, Mario’s Pizza, Meksiko Cantina, Newk’s Café, Oskie’s Sports Bar & Grill, Scoop’d and The Shrimp Dock.

For more information on these events, visit www.townoffarragut.org or www.farragutbusiness.com/ See you in Farragut this summer!

Community Center

Farragut recently approved first reading of its fiscal year 2013 budget — as well as a five-year outlay of capital investment projects — and neither currently appropriates money for a community center. The Town also recently has thrown around the idea of starting a community center in a vacant building, such as the empty Food City building (above), which has a $2.1 million price tag. Town administrator David Smoak has said opening and running a community center would require the Town to go into debt. Should the Town pursue a community center?

Is a community center worth going into debt? Would it be better to put a center in an empty building or build something new from the ground up? Are there other projects the Town should pursue before it opens a community center? Let us know what you think: call or e-mail presstalk at 865-671-8255(TALK) or presstalk@farragutpress.com

I would love to see — just for a day — the trucks shut down and how we would be in such trouble if the trucks did not run every day in the United States, carrying whatever they carry. We, the people, would find out how much we would want the truck to be back on the road hauling their load. Keep that in mind. Thank you.

• I love the fact that the town of Farragut is giving more money to the schools, but I do not feel HVA [Hardin Valley Academy] should get as much funding as the other schools. I believe they only have around 150 Farragut

students out of 1,800 students.

Doesn’t seem fair to give them the whole amount. I think they should get a proportional amount as to the number of Farragut students. I think this should also affect their Foundation funding.

• I would like the Aldermen on the budget to have spent some money on Turkey Creek Road for safety, for some lights, specifically on the lake next to the [inaudible]. Especially it is needed for the sidewalk that they have, it is needed for safety to be able to walk in the late evening instead of dark. I appreciate making these comments. Thank you.

taken” in a written statement they submitted to TDOT. “The 14[-foot] raised grass median adds nothing but expense to the project,” the statement said.

The pair argued that growth in West Knox County and Farragut had come to a standstill and a wider road was unnecessary.

They also took issue with the fact the widened Concord Road would empty into a two-lane Northshore Drive.

“Improving a road that does not need to be improved is an unnecessary waste of government resources and that is very hard to justify at this time,” the statement read.

State Rep. Ryan Haynes (District 14, which includes Farragut) said he’d received a

number of complaints about the project in his office.

“The biggest concern, obviously, is homes that are being taken and fronts of neighborhoods that are going to be ripped out and destroyed. And I think the public wants to see, when their neighborhood front entrance is destroyed, that it’s rebuilt and it’s rebuilt to their satisfaction.

“I think that’s a very reasonable request because we’re going to be taking their property,” Haynes said.

But not all the response to the plan was negative.

Farragut Vice Mayor Dot LaMarche said, “I think it’s great what they’re doing. We really need the new road. And I really appreciate the medians and I also like the fact that we have the greenway, the bike lane and the walking trail.”

Contractors from American Foundation & Basement Repairs LLC initiated a “cap and compaction grouting” fix to a road collapse on Ivy Lake Drive in The Farm at Willow Creek subdivision Thursday, May 10. The grouting was needed to stabilize roads in the subdivision after a lengthy and expensive series of problems stemming from a leaking stormwater drainage system, which has ostensibly been repaired. A large void opened under Ivy Lake earlier this year, and the grout was pumped underground to bridge the void. The fix cost the Town $42,026.

BOMA From page 1A

Phase 1 would be the most expensive, costing $5,498,909 to do mass earthwork and install roads, drainage systems, water and sewer lines and concrete and asphalt trails and parking lots for the site.

Phase 1 also would include the two synthetic turf fields and renovation of the existing pond.

Synthetic turf fields have an estimated life expectancy of about eight years, but Honken said the replacement cost is significantly less than the initial installation cost.

Phase 2 comes in just shy of $1.2 million and includes construction of the historic road and trail and the Frisbee golf course, among other things.

“Disc golf is really popular and it’s relatively inexpensive to build,” Fritts said.

Phase 3 would cost about $1.3 million and include construction of the dog park, tennis courts and hitting wall and amphitheater.

All of the estimated costs include a 15 percent contingency, Fritts said, since plans are general at this point.

• HONAKER, Lt. Col. Keith Jewel, age 94, left our lives May 27, 2012.

Keith was the beloved son of Leondas Rosser Honaker and mother, Ernie Thomas Honaker. He attained the rank of lieutenant colonel and was a respected military leader by all the men and women with whom he served. Among his military assignments were the 158th Regimental Combat Team, “The Bushmasters,” which served during World War II in New Guinea and Arawa, New Britain.

During his service in Arawa, Keith served as an escort for actor John Wayne. Keith also served as an airborne paratrooper in the 82nd Airborne Division and 11th Airborne Division. He was a company and battalion commander in these airborne units. Keith served in campaigns in the Pacific Theater for three and a half years. In Indochina, with the Military Assistance Advisory Group, he served as a liaison to the French military in the use of U.S. military weapons between 1951 and 1954. As reported by a French military officer, Keith was thought to have fired the first U.S. military weapon against the Communist Viet Minh. He then served a tour of duty in Germany with the 24th Infantry Division in defense against the Russian threat. He returned to the United States and finished his military career at East Tennessee State College as a military science instructor, as well as the rifle team coach. As an infantry officer, Keith led a team to destroy a tank behind enemy lines and was awarded the Bronze Star for this act; his medal was presented recently by U.S. Congressman John J. Duncan Jr. Keith received numerous other awards including the U.S. Airborne badge and the U.S. Combat Infantryman badge. After his retirement, Keith continued his professional career as the director of Urban Renewal and Community Development in Johnson City, Elizabethton and Knoxville. Keith was a dedicated lifelong member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and served faithfully in any calling asked of him by the church. He and Wilma were the first managers of the LDS church food storehouse, and Keith was genealogy director and employment assistant. He and his wife also served at the Mormon temple in Atlanta. Keith also authored four books. Keith wished for his family and friends to know that he loved

them and if anyone asked how he wanted to remembered he said, “I want to be remembered as a soldier, a beloved husband, father, and grandfather, a loving son and brother, and a faithful Mormon.” Keith leaves his most cherished wife of 75 years, Wilma Agnes Guthrie Honaker; and their children, Errol Honaker, John Honaker, Cathy Morton, Sandra Rogers, and Jeffery Honaker, daughters and sonin-law Harriet Honaker, Linda Honaker and Ben Morton; eight grandchildren; and 11 great-grandchildren. A celebration of Keith’s life was Thursday, May 31, 2012, at West Hills Branch, LDS Church. Interment followed with full military honors presented by Tennessee Army National Guard at Tennessee Veterans Cemetery, 2200 E. Gov. John Sevier Highway. Online condolences may be made at www.rosemortuary.com.

• HUTCHISON, Shannon B., age 88, of Knoxville went home to be with the Lord on Wednesday May 30, 2012. He was a member of West Park Baptist Church. Shannon was born Sept. 17, 1923, to Oscar and Zola (McCoy) Hutchison and is listed in the First Families of Tennessee. He retired from KUB after working 38 years in the line department. Shannon graduated from Rule High School and immediately joined the U.S. Navy and served from 1943 to 1946 in the Pacific Theatre aboard the Battleship USS Mississippi during World War II. After numerous battles throughout the Pacific, the USS Mississippi was anchored in Tokyo Bay and witnessed the Japanese surrender. He was recruited to play professional baseball after the war but refused to move away from

Knoxville. Shannon was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Delmar Hutchison; and son, Mike Hutchison.

He is survived by his loving wife of 67 years, Wanda (Wilkerson) Hutchison; son, Tim Hutchison and wife, Jan (Kohl); daughter, Rebecca Gibson and husband, Bob; daughter- in- law, Gail Hutchison Gallaher and husband, Bill; seven granddaughters; five greatgrandchildren; several brothers and sister-in-laws and nieces and nephews as well as many longtime friends from West View United Methodist Church and KUB. Funeral service was Saturday at Rose Mortuary Mann Heritage Chapel with the Rev. Sam Polson officiating.

Interment was Sunday at Edgewood Cemetery with Full Military Honors presented by Volunteer State Honor Guard and Tennessee National Guard. Online condolences may be made at www.rosemortuary.com/ • JEFFERIES, Shawnna, age 22, of Knoxville passed away Tuesday, May 29, 2012. Shawnna was graduate of Karns High School class of 2008. She is survived by her parents, Kimberly and Raleigh Jefferies; grandparents, Nancy and Walter Berleyoung; uncles, Kevin and Randy Berleyoung. Special thanks to her homebound teacher, Sandra Rader. A celebration of life was Thursday at Click Funeral Home Middlebrook Chapel with the Rev. Mike Segers officiating. Graveside service was Friday at Brown Flats Cemetery in Gray Gap. Click Funeral Home Middlebrook Chapel, 9020 Middlebrook Pike, served the Jefferies family. www.clickfuneralhome.com • LAWHORN, Carl O. “Duke,” passed away Memorial Day, May 28, 2012.

He was born April 30, 1922, in Charleston, W.Va., to Carl and Mamie Lawhorn. He lived in Charleston until he moved his family to Knoxville in 1962 after being transferred from Union Carbide in South Charleston to the Nuclear Division at the Y- 12 plant in Oak Ridge. He was a design engineer. As he was entering the service in 1943, he was married to his high school sweetheart, Ruth C o n n o r Lawhorn. Carl flew 51 missions with the U.S. Army Air Corps as a B17 pilot with the 97th Bomb Group Lawhorn as part of the 15th Air Force and became squadron leader. He was stationed in Foggia, Italy, and his missions occurred over Europe. He participated in the first shuttle bombing missions between Italy and Russia over the Polesti oil fields. His fighter support included the Tuskeegee Airmen. Later he flew the first helicopters. Then he flew P-51’s for the West Virginia Air National Guard. As a member of the reserves, he was the battalion aviation officer in the Combat Engineers, and ended his career with the rank of captain. After taking early retirement from the Y-12 plant, he entered the hospitality business and owned two motels, Dixie Lee Motel, Lenoir City and Stardust Lodge, Brunswick, Ga. He took his second and final early retirement at

age 52 upon selling the businesses.

He and his wife, Ruth, traveled to every state in the union as well as some overseas travel. Duke and Ruth played music and sang together for many years, and they left that gift to several members of the family. They both also had the gift of writing and poetry and amused many with their “dueling poems.” His love for her through 64 years of marriage was great, and his life was diminished by her passing in 2007. He is preceded in death by his parents; his wife, Ruth; two siblings, Richard Lawhorn and Jo Ann Mallory; and a host of uncles, aunts, cousins and close friends. He is survived by his sons, Norman and wife, Judy, Ron and his wife, Bonnie, and Jeff and his wife, Donna; eight grandchildren; 11 great-grandchildren. Special thanks to his special grandson, Sam Lawhorn, who cared for him more than five years; Tressie, who was dedicated to his care, and for the assistance of granddaughter, Ro. Special thanks also to those special friends who enriched his life, Billie Jean, Mack, Jack and fellow veteran, John Barnard. Arrangements are being handled by Highland West Memorial Park, 9913 Sherrill Lane, Knoxville, TN 37920, 865-693-9547 (next to Brown Squirrel Furniture).

Services will be conducted by the Rev. Gordon Ridenour on Thursday, May 31. The burial was immediately following with full Military Honors.

Charming Charlie now open Color-coded boutique joins lineup in Turkey Creek

■

HEATHER BECK hbeck@farragutpress.com

Farragut now is home to one of the fastest growing retailers in the country — a color-coded clothing and accessories boutique called Charming Charlie.

“We are the retailer everyone is buzzing about,” said general manager Julie Szymanski.

Charming Charlie opened five weeks ago in Turkey Creek, 11403 Parkside Drive.

“It’s really exciting,” she added.

The Farragut location is one of about 60 the company plans to open this year.

The 6,800 square-foot store is set up in “color stories,” Szymanski said, with clothing and accessories arranged by color for easy and fun shopping.

The front of the store presents seasonal and on-trend color combinations, plus additional baubles and accessories, as well as “classic basics” arranged by color and metal toward the rear of the store.

Charming Charlie offers items as varied as earrings and necklaces to hats, shoes, scarves and some clothing.

“A lot of women gravitate toward a favorite color, or they want to match an outfit or a dress for a special occasion,” Szymanski said. “It’s a really unique concept.”

The store’s stock changes frequently, with new items coming See CHARLIE on Page 8A

“So get it while it’s here,” Szymanski said.

Szymanski said the popularity of Charming Charlie’s concept had weathered the recession because of affordability and wise shopping strategies.

“We have low price points,” Szymanski said, adding that new accessories allow a shopper to reinvent an outfit they already own.

“It’s great retail therapy. And accessories fit everybody,” she added.

In addition to shopping experiences, Charming Charlie also offers “CC Socials,” where shoppers can arrange special gatherings — with light refreshments and shopping — at the store.

Szymanski said CC Socials were popular for bachelorette and baby showers or just girls’ nights out. Socials also can be arranged as fundraisers.

Charming Charlie is open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., Monday through Saturday and from noon to 6 p.m., Sundays. For more

“People here don’t seem to understand that ordinances and regulations are 1,000 times worse in other areas,” added Amanda.

At the corner of Kingston Pike and Old Stage Road now sits a state-of-the-art facility with the feel of a schoolhouse. From touch pad check-ins and ageappropriate covered playgrounds to a private chef and art boards dotting the hallway, the school conveys warmth, attention to detail and a child-centered focus.

“Working with Clemens Properties (with father Richard and brother Chad) smoothed the way to build to Primrose’s and Farragut’s specifications, while incorporating our own touches,” said Amanda.

The school employs 17 people and is ahead of schedule at 50 percent enrollment in its 12 interactive classrooms.

Big, small CBFO champs 13-19 Indians beat regular season champ Marlins for tourney title

■

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

CBFO Softball’s 13-19 League was strong enough in 2012 to have one team set an offense league record yet finish second during the regular season.

Dave Kubeja’s Indians went one step further during 13-19 league’s post-season tournament last week, finishing off a 14-4 season with a tournament title.

Behind tournament MVP Kayla Hindle, league regular season MVP Kristin McAllister plus Andi Murry, league regular season Indians 6 leader in hitting Marlins 0 average (.680) and home runs (4), Indians blanked the Marlins, regular season champ, 6-0 in the tournament championship round Sunday, June 3, at CBFO Northshore park.

“The girls did a wonderful thing: we set a [league] record for team batting average, .444,” said Kubeja, Indians head coach, about his team’s regular season feat. “We broke the prior record that we set back in 2009.

“Everybody on this team came up and produced,” Kubeja added. “They’ve been doing it for the last part of the season. They go up to the plate confident to produce.”

Also a big part of the Indians’ success were league Golden Glove winners Diona Hamilton, Nicole Henningsen and Olivia

Thornton. “Defensively they’re doing it; pitching, we’re driving it down,” Kubeja said. “I’m real proud of what this team accomplished.”

Other Indians contributors were Krystina Engblom, Maggie Dixon, Hailee Henningsen, Hannah Engblom and Alison Swaggerty.

The Marlins, 12-3 in the regular season while finishing 14-5 overall, were led by Cy Young Award winner (top pitcher) Callie Moore and Golden Glove honorees Ann Martin Foley, Isabella Lee and Sydney Mullins.

“We had a great team this season, winning the regular season championship,” Marlins head

coach Fred Lee said. “I thought the girls played their hearts out all season long. We really came together as a team. I think most of all the girls had a lot of fun.”

Other Marlins contributors were Hope Jones, Amy Darago, Jenny Holt, Amber Holliman, Beck Flynn, Danielle Phillips and Amber Montgomery.

FHS students’ art talent shines

Alan Sloan/farragutpress

Seong Eun Kim, FHS rising senior artist, holds artwork with special meaning. Entitled “A Graceful Girl,” Kim said this oil, painted in an FHS art class during her freshman year in 2010, was her first-ever time using oil and was “a great experience.”

Vital tool of expression becomes Kim’s path to prestigious art school

■

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

As a new Farragut Middle School seventh-grade student in a country quite foreign both literally and culturally, Seong Eun Kim said she “couldn’t speak English or write English very well.”

“I started to use my artwork to communicate with people … so I started to express my English and then myself through my art,” added Kim, a rising senior student/artist at

Farragut High School recently accepted into the prestigious Marie Walsh Sharpe Foundation Summer Academy of Art in Colorado Springs, Colo., June 316.

Among many of the nation’s top young artists, “Only 60 get to attend each summer in Colorado Springs; it’s a big deal,” said Martha Robbins, FHS art teacher. “Her work is truly incredible.”

ConcordQuest kicks off June 10 First Baptist Concord’s Vacation Bible School, ConcordQuest, is a must in East Tennessee.

This year, “The Genesis File” promises to take participants on an epic adventure.

Participants will land right in the midst of a secret mission that goes bad.

Throughout the week, they not only uncover a file which stores top secret information, but they must also retrieve and protect that file from the unknown forces that seek to find it and use against them.

Each year, FBC has more than 2,000 children and adults attend ConcordQuest.

Classroom teaching is central to the overall theme and the production has become a tradition of excellence that children and adults look forward to every year.

ConcordQuest 2012 is June 10-17 and is for children age 4 through 8th-grade. Middle School students participate in their own CQ: Break Out, which is targeted to their age group.

ConcordQuest 2012 kicks off at 10 a.m., Sunday, June 10, a combined worship service where everyone will get a sneak peek at “The Genesis File.”

From 9 a.m. to noon, Monday See CONCORD on Page 10B

While holding Allie Hicks’ color pencil self portrait, Rachel Moore, FHS rising senior artist, right, points out various highlights she finds interesting in Hicks’ acrylic self portrait. Hicks, an FHS rising junior artist, and Moore are attending Tennessee Governors School of Art at Middle Tennessee State University, Murfreesboro, this month.

New FHS friends Moore, Hicks in selective art ‘Gov School’ at MTSU

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

Rachel Moore and Allie Hicks have been immersed into art thanks to their parents’ levels of expertise. Not to mention Moore’s grandparents.

Both of these Farragut High School students are much more comfortable with charcoal and pencils than paintbrushes.

One more thing in common for this pair, recently bonding as friends, is a trip to Tennessee Governors School for the Arts at

Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro June 3-29.

“Like a ton of people go and audition; it’s like a huge honor to get accepted,” said Moore, a rising senior elected as FHS National Arts Honor Society president for 2012-13 school year.

Hicks, a rising junior and NAHS member, said more than 4,000 sophomores and juniors from the 2011-12 school year auditioned. “They take one out of ten, I think,” Hicks added.

Moore said reasons she was

selected to Governors School included “the judges saying my portfolio was so diverse. I had tons of different mediums and different subjects.”

As for Hicks earning her spot, “I think their main critique was my value skills [use of light],” she said.

Pointing to a self-portrait in acrylic, Hicks said, “They really liked the movement in it, they asked me a lot about my thought process.”

Americorps’, Cunningham finds Farragut special

As an AmeriCorps service member originally from North Carolina, Josh Cunningham has fought wild fires on the West Coast and rehabilitated animals in Costa Rica.

He’s lived in San Francisco, Cunningham Calif., Portland, Oregon, Yosemite National Forest (Calif.) and Lake Tahoe, Nev. However, having lived in Farragut since last August, the

Chef Steve creating a scrumptious menu for our guests.

Knox County area “has been my favorite of all those,” said Cunningham, town of Farragut’s first AmeriCorps service member who has been a valuable asset in mapping hundreds of Town stormwater drains and assisting in Town educational programs during the past 10 months.

“I’m just fascinated by the culture,” Cunningham added.

“Farragut is very much its own sense of community.”

“I have developed an appreciation for this sense of community that I’ve never developed anywhere else.”

Jason Scott, stormwater coordinator with town of Farragut, said Cunningham has provided valuable services.

“What really makes an

AmeriCorps member different from a volunteer is the consistency of service and the level of technical expertise they can develop in the time they are with you,” Scott said.

Cunningham “has mapped all the contributing points to our storm sewer system, which is a new requirement of our stormwater permit … then we can have a visualization of every contributing point,” Scott said.

“He’s also done a whole lot in helping plan a lot of the events that we participate in, Earthfest, Waterfest,” Scott added. “He’s done some video editing for us and he’s also managed our Adopt-A-Stream program this See CUNNINGHAM on Page 5B

“I think it was definitely really encouraging because truthfully, the first time I painted was this past year,” Hicks added.

Hicks, 15, said one Governor’s School judge said, “‘This is really impressive; I don’t know if you realize all that you’ve done with this.’ That really stuck with me.”

Each Governors School participant “gets to take two classes that we get to choose,” Moore said.

“They suggest that you take something that’s like a crutch, that you’re familiar with, and then to take something you want to grow on and learn more experience from.”

Moore said she and Hicks “are

both taking drawing, that’s kind of like our crutch, and painting to learn more about it.”

Having spoken to previous FHS artists attending Governors School, “They said it’s just so awesome to get to go because artists were all so different from each other,” Moore said.

“And when you’re around that many creative people, you can’t help but get more creative and like bounce ideas off of each other,” Moore added.

Looking ahead to college, “I’m definitely going to pursue it,” Moore said. “I’d kick myself later if I didn’t do it for the rest of my life. I’ve looked at things from like graphic design to even all the way to being, like, art director of film.”

As for subjects, “I really enjoy

doing people and more of like, still lifes,” Moore said. “I know artists say you should draw from life, but I’m not very good at it.”

As for Hicks’s art future, “I’m definitely going to be an art major,” she said. “I would love to do a career in art, but I’m undecided as to what that would be.”

“I’m really into portraiture, I really like drawing people,” Hicks added.

Last fall, Moore, 17, said she was hired by “one of the policemen we have working here. She hired me to do a painting of a lighthouse for her friend’s birthday.”

“It was kind of surreal for me that people came and paid for something I’ve made,” she added.

year.”

As for character, “He’s selfmotivated … he’s creative, so he comes up with a lot of unique ways to kind of put himself into programs, which have really successfully moved some of our programs forward,” Scott said. “Very positive, optimistic. Good with people.”

In addition, “Josh was the only applicant who specifically said that he’d be interested in our program,” Scott said. “That was big for me.”

Cunningham said the Farragut experience “has been a really fun concept for me, to be the first member to participate in the AmeriCorps program here at the town of Farragut.”

Cunningham has become, in effect, a full-time employee with “a whole bunch of training up front,” Scott said.

With help from a state grant paying “a few thousand dollars” for AmeriCorps expenses, town

of Farragut pitches in about $10,000 to pay for Cunningham’s services, Scott said.

Cunningham is leaving Farragut June 30 — his term of AmeriCorps service concluded — for another “service member” job, this one at non-profit radio station KNOM in Nome, Alaska.

In Nome, “You can only access it by plane,” Scott said.

“The biggest challenge I would have encountered this year is just leaving,” Cunningham added.

As for a career, “I’m still definitely doing my taste-test of service,” Cunningham said. “I’m definitely not in a hurry to get the career and get the house and the family and settle down by any means.

“I’m hoping that somewhere in the cards it’ll be time for Josh to come back to the Knoxville area and reconnect with all these fine folks,” he added.

“It surprises people because it’s not as exotic sounding in a lot of ways.”

There was the story of a friend who lost most of three fingers after trying to pull out a stick caught under a running lawnmower.

Also catching the attention of middle school-aged children was an illustration using a shoe, filled with red food product simulating blood that was put under a running mower to illustrate what could happen if you’re not careful.

Farragut Mayor Ralph McGill honored retiring Farragut Primary School principal Julia Craze by reading a proclamation thanking her for her service to the community during the Town’s Board of Mayor and Aldermen meeting Thursday, May 24. The proclamation also named May 25, 2012 “Principal Julia Craze Day.” Craze has been principal at FPS for eight years, and former Farragut school board representative Thomas Deakins told Craze she “is a model principal. Eight thousand students’ lives have been touched, including all four of my children.”

Byrd hired as new FPS principal ■ ALAN SLOAN

asloan@farragutpress.com

Alan Sloan/farragutpress

In a symbolic gesture of “passing the hat,” Farragut Primary School principal-designate Gina Byrd, left, takes the FPS hard-hat — a gift from FPS kindergarten’s red wing in recognition of the school putting up with Campbell Station Road widening construction — from current FPS principal Julia Craze. Byrd, current FPS assistant principal, will assume principal duties when Craze retires June 14.

Gina Byrd said she was “shocked” upon finding out she was hired as Farragut Primary School’s new principal.

But a track record of “strong relationships” made the decision anything but shocking, as characterized by her current and future bosses.

“I was very excited that I was going to be able to stay here,” said Byrd, an educator since 1989 who has served as FPS assistant principal for three years.

“I’ve formed a lot of relationships with parents and the students and the faculty,” added Byrd, a native of Panama City, Fla., who, with husband, Russell, moved to West Knox County in

2001 from Dothan, Ala. Julia Craze, retiring FPS principal, said she’s known Byrd “probably for about eight or nine years. Every time I ran into her I would ask her if she had finished her administrative licensing because I just really wanted to hire her to work with me.

“She’s smart and she’s got a great sense of humor, and she had a kindergarten background, so I knew she’d be great with little kids,” Craze added. “I’m excited she’s going to take my place. That way I don’t have to worry.”

Byrd said Craze “has been a great mentor, and I have big shoes to fill.”

Dr. Jim McIntyre, Knox County Schools superintendent, promoted Byrd and announced his choice Friday, May 4.

“I think she has really developed very strong relationships with the educators at Farragut Primary as well as the parent community and the students,” McIntyre said. “She also has great leadership skills. I think she’s learned a lot, and very well, from Mrs. Craze.”

A special education, elementary school and adult education teacher in Panama City and Dothan for 11 years, Byrd began teaching kindergarten at A.L. Lotts Elementary from the 200203 school year through 2008-09.

Byrd will assume principal duties upon Craze’s retirement June 14.

The Byrds have two daughters: Sarah, 17, and Hannah, 16, both students at Bearden High School.

beginning to choke down, you’re mowing too fast.”

Travis said his company’s weed eaters, blowers and chains saws were experiencing repair problems until they “switched to a hundred percent gas. Cured it.”

He advocated finding local dealers selling 100 percent gasoline, not gas mixed with ethanol, or using gas treatment to help your smaller lawn products run smoother. ...” There’s about eight gas stations [with 100 gasoline] in Knox County.”

“That ethanol just sucks water into the fuel, and it eats on the rubber gaskets and primer bulbs,” Travis added.

Danny said 100 percent gas “costs a few cents more,” but is worth it.

Pete Bryant, delivery person with Farragut Lawn & Tractor, advised running mower tanks dry at the end of mowing season to “prolong your carburetor.”

About lawn health and beautification, Denton said Bermuda, a warm season grass should be cut at “one-and-half to two inches,” versus fescue, a cool season grass, “at three to four inches.”

Travis said sharpening the

blade after “every 50 hours” of mowing is a good rule of thumb.

However, Denton said if you accidentally hit “a rock or a piece of wood” while mowing, “Then you may have to sharpen it more often.”

When sharpening, Denton said to be sure and take off equal amounts of metal from both ends, “to keep it balanced, otherwise you feel vibrations through the mower. Vibration is never good because there’s so many small parts in the engine.”

A good rule of thumb for checking a blade’s weight on both sides is to take a screwdriver blade and run it through the blade’s center mounting hole. The blade should balance equally, otherwise sharpen more on the side weighing more.

Danny said a dull blade “tears the grass” more than cuts it, “and has jagged edges and will immediately turn brown. Plus, it can make it more susceptible to disease.”

For a healthier lawn, Danny recommended changing the mowing pattern from the previous time you mowed a given property.

About the business of mowing lawns, “Most homeowners, they like their yard mowed on Friday morning,” Danny said.

“They want it looking nice for the weekend.”

Julie Wu, who was scheduled to attend a similar prestigious art school at Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, Penn., “These are two of the best art students I have ever encountered,” Robbins added.

Kim said about Marie Walsh Sharpe, “When I heard that I was accepted into that art school I was so excited.”

Using art to overcome her language barrier while at FMS, “That’s the time that I really started to think about my art career,” Kim said. “I’ve been drawing since I was really young.

At Marie Walsh, Kim said her goal is “to learn a different way to express art. Learn more deep about art and art techniques, and see other people’s works and learn from them. And get feedback from art teachers.”

Kim, 18, said she was selected after submitting an art “portfolio with a paragraph showing who I am and why I wanted to attend this art camp.”

Combining mediums within a given piece of work is a favorite for this talented young artist. “I like to use pencil and watercolor because I was using them, like, since I’ve been young,” Kim said. “I like to play with them and mix with other mediums like pastel and other stuff, color

Automatic Investing Can Pay Off for You

To achieve investment success, you don’t have to start out with a huge sum or “get lucky” by picking “hot” stocks.

In fact, very few people actually travel those two routes. But in working toward your investment goals, you need to be persistent — and one of the best ways to demonstrate that persistence is to invest automatically.

How do you become an “automatic” investor? You simply need to have your bank automatically move money each month from a checking or savings account into the investments of your choice. When you’re first starting out in the working world, you may not be able to afford much, but any amount — even if it’s just $50 or $100 a month — will be valuable. Then, as your career progresses and your income rises, you can gradually increase your monthly contributions.

By becoming an automatic investor, you can gain some key benefits, including these: • Discipline — Many people think about investing but decide to wait until they have “a little extra cash.”

Before they realize it, they’ve used the money for other purposes. When you invest automatically, you’re essentially taking a spending decision “out of your hands.” And as you see your accounts grow over time, your investment discipline will be self-reinforcing.

• Long-term focus — There’s never any shortage of events — political crises, economic downturns, natural disasters — that cause investors to take a “timeout” from investing. Yet if you head to the investment sidelines, even for a short while, you might miss out on some good opportunities. By investing automatically each month, you’ll maintain a long-term focus.

• Potential for reduced investment costs — If you invest the same amount of money each month into the same investments, you’ll automatically be a “smart shopper.” When prices drop, your monthly investment will buy more shares, and when prices rise, you’ll buy fewer shares — just as you’d probably buy less of anything when prices are high. Over time, this type of systematic investment typically results in lower costs per share.

Furthermore, when you invest systematically, you’re less likely to constantly buy and sell investments in an effort to boost your returns. This type of frequent trading is often ineffective — and it can raise your overall investment costs with potential fees, commissions and taxes. (Keep in mind, though, that systematic investing does not guarantee a profit or protect against loss. Also, you’ll need the financial resources available to keep investing through up and down markets.)

Clearly, automatic investing offers some major advantages to you as you seek to build wealth. Of course, if you’re contributing to a 401(k) or other employer-sponsored retirement plan, you’re already automatically investing because money is taken out of your paycheck at regular intervals to go toward the investments you’ve chosen in your plan. But by employing automatic investing techniques to other vehicles, such as an Individual Retirement Account (IRA), you can continue your progress toward your long-term goals, including retirement.

So, do what it takes to become an automatic investor. It’s easy, it’s smart — and it can help you work toward the type of future you’ve envisioned.
