BOMA presented with ‘branding’ platform ■
TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com
Town of Farragut revealed its platform statement to proceed with its branding process during its BOMA meeting, Thursday, Aug. 28. Northstar, hired in January to develop branding for the Town, unveiled its research findings and a brand platform statement, which came out of that research.
The proposed brand platform read: “For those who appreciate beauty and forward thinking in equal measure, Farragut, Tenn., the Knoxville area’s most desirable community, is a premier destination [for living, shopping, ease and amenities] built by the hard work and ideals of high achievers, allowing your opportunities for growth to come with an assurance of established excellence.”
“We’re halfway through the process,” Lori Odom, vice president of economic development for Northstar, said.. “We’ve been working with the town of Farragut for a few months now, conducting research, and you are going to hear about that research tonight,” Odom added. “Our goal is to help articulate the brand of Farragut, so what is special, what is unique, what’s different that
needs to be highlighted about Farragut.” She said the research, taken from focus groups, online surveys and interviews, showed the community liked the look and feel of Farragut, its sense of community, the Turkey Creek shopping center, its affluent residence base, location, great public schools, parks and greenways, educated residents, having no property taxes and having educated resi-
dents. The Town’s challenges are its perceptions as not being business friendly and having elitist attitudes, residents too busy to volunteer, local retail struggles, empty storefronts along Kingston Pike and its tax structure. “I will start with one word: Wow,” McGill said after hearing the presentation. “You guys did a See BRAND on Page 4A
BOMA election winners take oath ■

Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen welcomed a new member as three election winners were sworn into office during BOMA meeting Thursday, Aug. 28. Farragut Municipal Judge Lucinda Troyer swore in newly elected Alderman Ron Pinchok, and re-elected incumbents Mayor Ralph McGill and Alderman Robert “Bob” Markli, during a brief ceremony prior to Farragut Beer Board meeting Thursday, Aug. 28. McGill said the Town had a great turnout of voters for the election. He attributed that to the election being moved its from April to August to line up with another election. “That ended up being a good idea because we had a lot of voters,” McGill said. “We want people voting.” In addition to the swearing in, the Board voted for Dot LaMarche to remain as vice mayor. LaMarche was absent for the meeting but Allison Myers, Town recorder, said LaMarche contacted her and expressed she would be interested in continuing to serve as vice mayor. Markli nominated LaMarche as vice mayor, and Pinchok seconded his nomination, which passed unanimously.

GCR residents unhappy about proposed zoning change ■ TAMMY CHEEK
tcheek@farragutpress.com
Residents living in subdivisions such as Chapel Point and Wyndham Hall object to an apartment complex development being planned for Grigsby Chapel Road area. A number of residents turned out to speak during a public hearing at Farragut Municipal Planning Commission meeting Thursday, Aug. 21, when the Commission discussed amending the text of its ordinance on multi-family dwellings or apartments. “We don’t need an apartment complex on that property,” Jeanne Draughn, Chapel Point resident and farragutpress
employee, said. “We already have an apartment complex,” Draughn added, referring to Lanesborough Apartments. She added since those apartments were built, traffic on Grigsby Chapel Road has increased. “We are very concerned about the impact of this development, Mul Wyman, a Wyndham Hall resident, said. “We haven’t received any drawings of anything,” Mark Shipley, Farragut Community Development director, said. “We are just looking at the text of the ordinance. We didn’t have anything submitted to us.” Shipley said everything is put on the Town website under the Planning Commission section.
The residents’ objections follows the Commission’s reviewing its zoning ordinance for R-6, multi-family zoning — apartments. After receiving a request from apartment developers TDK Construction and PMG the Commission revisited the Town’s zoning ordinance on multi-family residences at its past three meetings. During its Aug. 21 meeting, the Commission voted unanimously to recommend the approval of a number of amendments to that zoning ordinance. Among them are: • Changing the off-street parking provisions for multi-family zones to read as follows: “where parking is to be provided in the rear or side yard of a commercial
or office development, the parking lot shall be set back a minimum of 10 feet from he side or rear property line.” • Reducing setback requirements for buildings on the side/rear yard to 35 feet from the nearest side or rear property line. Previously, the setback was 50 feet. • Where the adjacent property is zoned residential or agricultural, accessory structures shall be set back from the nearest point of any side or rear property line minimum of 100 feet. • A buffer strip is not required in a front yard but the development must provide for a landscape design that, at a minimum, would include plant material distributed within the area 20 feet
from the front property line. • The maximum lot coverage is 50 percent while the minimum distance between buildings is 20 feet. The ordinance also calls for a minimum lot size of five acres and maximum overall density not to exceed 12 units per acre. The Commission also voted unanimously to recommend approving a draft for an openspace multi-family residential overlay zoning district, which would give developers more leeway on some regulations, such as height requirements, when faced with challenging topography. Beth Sells of Chapel Lane said she is concerned about the impact on the traffic if such a See GCR on Page 2A

Town seeks to pay $1.1 million of $1.3 million tax bill ■ ALAN SLOAN
asloan@farragutpress.com
Town of Farragut leaders have arrived at a figure in attempt to settle a lawsuit filed by Knox County, which has sought payment of more than $1.3 million in unpaid Mixed Drink taxes — which goes to Knox County Schools — dating back to 1987 that Town leaders claim they didn’t realized was owed until 2013. In a letter dated Aug. 18 from David Smoak, Town administrator, to Lynne Fugate, chair of Knox County Board of Education, Smoak writes: “On

development takes place, and Mark Schrock said he is concerned about the density in the proposed development. Schrock said he understands it would have 200 units. “You want to put eight multifamily living units per acre,” he said. “You are not going to have room for anything else, no parking, no green space. “These folks don’t have any skin in the game,” Schrock said. “The traffic is backed up from Walgreens to St. John Neumann School. It’s totally stopped, and if you put more traffic there, you are going to be dumping on a
behalf of the town of Farragut, I am writing to offer a proposal to settle. … the Town proposes to resolve the issue in the lawsuit in the spirit of the recently enacted [state] legislation by the payment of $1,106,829, which represents 50 percent of the taxes collected during the past 15 years, 1999-2013.” In a press release from Chesley Riemann, Town Public Relations coordinator: “The amount stated in the letter is what the Town owes Knox County Schools for the past 15 years. The State of Tennessee made the mandate that cities would only have to pay back 15
congested road. There’s no room to expand the road without some expense.” Ross Bradley with TDK Construction said his group is processing a housing design project. “We would like to get your names and contact information so we can reach out to you when we are done and have neighborhood meetings,” Bradley said. “I know what it’s like to have pride in the community, and traffic is a No. 1 issue.” Following the discussions, the Commission voted unanimously to recommend approval of amendments to the multi-family zonining ordinance.
years of the owed taxes, which is how this amount was decided on.” Smoak’s letter further stated: “We would propose to pay this amount in three annual installments of $368,943, each payable on Oct. 1, 2014, 2015 and 2016,” “… I was authorized to extend this offer by action of the Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen at its meeting on Aug. 14, 2014.” Conditions on the offer, Smoak’s letter states, include requiring the County to drop its lawsuit with court costs split equally between the Town and County. Smoak’s letter also states: “We were disappointed to learn in recent conversations with the leadership of Knox County Schools that there was an unwillingness to consider giving the Town any credit for the amount of its voluntary contributions,”
which Smoak states earlier in the letter to be $560,000 from 1999 through 2013. “Our disappointment stems, in part, from the clear signal in legislation recently adopted by the state legislature that such credits were appropriate for consideration in resolving past due amounts resulting from the rather widespread misunderstanding of the law.” Fugate said the offer was scheduled to be on Knox County Board of Education’s agenda during its Wednesday, Sept. 3, meeting (after deadline) “to discuss if they’re willing to accept the settlement.” If the Board of Education approved the settlement amount, “They have to recommend to the County Commission that they [approve] it,” Fugate said. “The final decision is up to County Commission.” In the Town’s press release, it
was stated that BOMA “won’t take a formal vote until we receive a response back from Knox County Schools and a decision about the official payback needs to be made.” Fugate said the Town’s offer is roughly “splitting the difference” between what the Town originally owed, $1,352,611, and its original settlement offer of “about $700,000.” During a June meeting among Town and County main players — Fugate, Smoak, Knox County Schools superintendent Jim McIntyre Jr., Knox County Law director Bud Armstrong, Town attorney Tom Hale, Farragut Mayor Ralph McGill and deputy Law director David Sanders — Fugate said the County’s position was made clear: “We basically said we’re owed $1.3 million and we’re not going to take $700,000.”

Neighborhood alert issued by resident Fellow Neighbors: There is a thief/poisoner living among us. A month ago, 16 solar lights were stolen from the middle of our large corner lot. We’d placed some by the telephone pole and fire hydrant for safety’s sake because of the heavy traffic, hoping to avoid a tragic accident for anyone driving at night. They were also stolen. Now, the front yard flowers and plants have viciously been sprayed with a toxic substance. Again, the culprit went far beyond the street edge to walk on our property to inflict damage during the night’s darkness. Although renters, we’ve worked hard to create and maintain a beautiful yard at our personal expense and labor. Thanks to those who have expressed appreciation for our efforts in providing a pretty view as they pass our house. With further intentional destruction, our bright spot will not exist. Unfortunately, we feel violated and unsafe due to this theft and vandalism. What’s to keep an individual with this mentality from killing a pet or person? We find it shameful that a person can be cruel enough to ruin what could otherwise be a pleasant, safe, respectful neighborhood community. It’s disheartening to think such a person lives among us. Michael Rhodes Midhurst Drive Farragut

lot of work.” “That was so excellent,” Alderman Ron Honken said. “We’re so impressed. ... “Where do we go from here?” Alderman Bob Markli asked. Odom asked the Board to approve the platform statement so Northstar can proceed with the creative leap and move forward the branding process. The Board approved the statement unanimously with Honken making the motion, seconded by Alderman Ron Pinchok. While Markli said he would like to see the statement include the East Tennessee region, Honken said he thinks citing Knoxville “anchors us.” Still, Markli added he would like to see the statement sharpened up a bit. Odom said the statement will not be written that way again as the branding process continues. “We will go through multiple variations,” she said. Odom said the platform statement is an internal guiding research statement —- it’s the summation of the research — not meant to be emotional or the brand. “It’s not something you’re going to pull a tag line out of,” she said. ”It’s just meant to basically sum up all the research and capture Farragut before we
launch into creative development, where you will see things like a written narrative, a logo, a strap line, those kinds of things.” “There is still a lot of work to be done,” Town administrator David Smoak said. In other business, the Board voted unanimously to approve a zoning amendment from R-4, attached single-family residential district, to R-1 OSMR, rural single-family residential district with an Open Space Mixed Residential overlay, for the Villas at Anchor Park, a development on the north side of Turkey Creek Road, across from Anchor Park, on second reading. Gary Palmer, assistant Town administrator, said the ordinance amendment would reduce the density of dwellings from its initial zoning and provide more open space. On another matter, the Board heard Denny Wren of 1222 Ashley Court in Andover Subdivision, Farragut. He challenged Board members to drive through Andover, Grigsby Chapel and, in particular, Smith Road to Hickory Woods Road, to see where a repaving company spilled tac — asphalt topping — on the pavement for about a mile-and-a-half on those roads. Wren said he wants the tac cleaned up at the contractor’s expense.

• I would like to thank whomever approved having Boyd Station Road repaved. I have been driving it for over 11 years. My question/comment is, why did they remove the passing areas? Was it due to the many wrecks on that road? I have never seen one. Is it because of complaints of speeding? Was it actually enough complaints to warrant changing to no passing lanes? Was it Farragut or TDOT that messed with the traffic flow of a perfectly good road? I get behind people all the time rubber necking looking at the lake going 20 miles an hour. Now I can’t even pass them. So again, who decided to change the road? What study was done to say the change was needed? In 11 years I could probably count on one hand the number of police I have seen on this section of road. Who is going to enforce the new no passing zone? Just seems I missed a notice or a meeting or something to where an everyday driver of that route could voice their opinion. Editor’s Note: Boyd Station is a town of Farragut road and is not under the jurisdiction of TDOT. The posted speed is 30 mph. • To the guy in the gold Ford Explorer that’s illegally dumping his household trash in local business dumpsters, please pay for your own trash pickup. We business owners do. Thanks. • Where are the Farragut police in this town. I was driving on McFee Road Thursday afternoon going the speed limit, which is 30 mph through the residential part before the first round about and was surprised that an older man driving an SUV passed me in the turn lane going at least twice my speed. By the time I reached the round about I could see his taillights disap-
pearing over the hill in front of Bridgemore subdivision. When I reached the top of the hill he could be seen clearing the round about in front of McFee Park. It’s not safe to drive the streets in this Town as long a reckless people are behind the wheel. Editor Note: Farragut does not have a police force. Law enforcement is supplied by Knox County Sheriff’s Office. • I miss the police reports as you used to present them. They were the only way of hearing about incidents in my subdivision or neighborhood unless they involved injury or death. The last few police report items in the farragutpress lost the helpfulness that had been characteristic of them for so long, and lately they have been totally absent. I hope that you will be able to reconstitute them in their prior form and begin including them again soon. • I’d like to comment on the Aug. 28 presstalk report by someone who witnessed a near tragedy on Turkey Creek Road when a driver passed a long line of bicyclists on a dangerous curve. [The caller] noted that “this kind of irresponsibility and disregard for human life are appalling.” After reading this a couple of times, I questioned whether you meant the “irresponsibility and disregard for human life” was describing the driver of the car or the long line of bicyclists. In my opinion, it is both. No … the driver should not have put others at risk by doing what he did. Likewise, however, the bicyclists who ride on narrow, heavily traveled roads with blind curves and deep drop offs also show irresponsibility and disregard for human life … both for those who travel the roads by car as well as for themselves. A plea to the bicyclists who travel
on Virtue, Boyd Station, Turkey Creek, Harvey and Choto roads, please find somewhere to ride that is less traveled and with a wide margin on which you can ride and keep all of us safer. • Editorial freedom is a wonderful concept, but it does come with its responsibilities. With that in mind, the farragutpress has developed policies that will be followed regarding the publication of presstalk comments: • Libelous comments will not be published. • Malicious comments will not be published. • Comments will remain anonymous. • Recorded comments will be limited to 30 seconds. • Written comments should be limited to about 100 words. • Names of individuals or businesses mentioned in the call may not be published (including public figures and officials) depending on the issue. • Comments mentioning names of public figures, not issue related, will be published as a “Letter to the Editor” and must be signed. • farragutpress reserves the right not to publish any comment for any reason. • Because of space limitations, not every comment will be published. Also, portions of the 30-second message and written comments with more than 100 words may be omitted, but the basic message of the call or email will remain intact. • Vulgar language will not be printed. That’s it. The forum is open for comments regarding anything you have on your mind — local politics, world affairs, sports, religion, community affairs, citycounty unification or anything else.

Dance Center West, 113 West End Center, celebrates its 40th anniversary this year as it begins its fall classes. Jeannie Sellars said she could look back on her experiences as owner and director of Dance Center West and see she has touched children’s lives in a positive way. “I’m just so proud of all the accomplishments over the years — seeing our students excel in many directions — but what I am most proud of is having the opportunities we have had to touch the lives of so many children and have had a positive influence on their lives,” Sellars added. Her daughter, Tracy Sellars Kiumarsi, co-director, estimated the studio has taught about 10,000 students the past 40 years. Sellars said she has seen students perform for America’s Best Dance Crew, “America’s Got Talent,” Dance Caravan, Dance Troupe Incorporated, Disney and more. She said Dance Center West has made lifelong contacts with such talents as Christopher Gattelli, Tony Award-winning choreographer; Doug Jack, Disney choreographer; Roni Mahler of New York City Ballet and Tap Dogs of L.A. The studio opened in 1974 in Farragut Center. It was incorporated and had its first performance in 1975, Sellars said. Kiumarsi said she grew up in Dance Center West and also wanted to teach dance. “I had to do what my heart led me to do,” she said. “I can’t imagine doing anything else.” Dance Center West begins fall season classes this month.

“Everyone who enrolls [for the coming season] will be a part of the 40th celebration performance,” Kiumarsi said. She and her mother are inviting back alumnae of the studio to return for the performance. At Dance Center West, students can take ballet, tap, jazz, hip-hop, preschool and creative dance, acrobatics and gymnas-
tics. However, Sellars said her strongest emphasis is ballet. “Ballet is the basis for all other areas of dance,” Sellars, a professional dancer before teaching dance, added. “Performing is a sensational adventure, but teaching the youth of all ages has always been my desire.” Dance Center West is open
from 2 to 9 p.m., Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, and from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturdays. Times fluctuate on Wednesdays and Fridays. The studio is closed Sundays. For more information, call 865966-7094, 865-966-6486 or go to the website at dancecenterwestknoxville.com.

Ads blanked at Blankenship ■
KEN LAY Correspondent
Farragut High School junior linebacker Cole Strange knows that there are no medals for trying. “The effort was there but every team gives effort,” said Strange, who made several key tackles in the Admirals’ 13-0 loss to Oak Ridge Friday night, Aug. 29, at Blankenship Field. “But every team gives effort. The bottom Wildcats 13 line is that we Admirals 0 didn’t win. “If we don’t win, then you can’t say that we had a good game.” The Ads (0-2) surrendered just 13 points to a potent offensive attack and Farragut’s defense held the Wildcats’ offense to a pair of field goals. “We gave up 13 points and it doesn’t matter if they came on offense or defense,” said Strange, who was playing in a cast due to torn ligaments in his hand. “Tonight, that was too many points.” It was evident from the outset that points would come at a premium as Oak Ridge (1-0) and the Admirals were locked into a scoreless deadlock throughout much of the opening half. Oak Ridge had its chances but
Farragut’s bend-but-not-break defense made the big plays that it had to make. “I think our defense played pretty well tonight,” Farragut head coach Eddie Courtney said. “When you hold Oak Ridge to two field goals, that’s pretty good.” The game remained scoreless until Oak Ridge’s junior kicker Brandon Nickle kicked a 43-yard field goal with 57.9 seconds remaining until halftime. The Admirals’ offense sputtered all night as Farragut missed one of its key players. Farragut played the game without starting quarterback Jacob Naumoff, who was out after sustaining a mild foot injury in the Ads’ season opener against Kingsport DobynsBennett. Cole Morgan started and played the first half. He then gave way to sophomore Adam Fulton. Fellow sophomore Justen Freeman also saw some playing time in the second half. “Jacob should be back [this] week,” Courtney said. “He had a minor foot injury against Kingsport.” In Naumoff’s absence, Courtney and his coaching staff struggled to find answers on offense. They couldn’t find many. See ADMIRALS on Page 12A

Youth scoring punch lifts Lady Ads vs. Greeneville

Inexperienced players rise up for lone BHS Invitational win
■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
Scoring from inexperienced players and unexpected sources fueled Farragut’s lone victory during Bearden Invitational play against Greeneville. A tap-in goal by junior midfielder Tori Hunt, off a nice crossing pass from senior forward Kendall Clay, was followed by goals from sophomore forward Morgan Records and freshman midfielder Emilie Guigou. The end result was a 3-1 victory against the Lady Greene Devils Sunday afternoon, Aug. 31, in Farragut Soccer Stadium. “I think we played one of the best games that we’ve had in a while,” FHS senior star defender Natalie Goetz said. “… Each game we’re building, we’re growing as a team. It’s going to take time.” Goetz said about bringing along the younger players, “We’re trying to make it a family experience.” Clay showed nice ball control down the left side near the corner when crossing to Hunt for the first Farragut goal. Hunt’s goal from five yards out came in the 33rd minute. “She had an amazing cross,” Hunt said about Clay. “I think it was one of our best games. We’ve had a slow start but this was def-
initely a confidence booster. Definitely growing in our play.” Farragut’s second goal, making it 2-0 in the 49th minute, was assisted by sophomore defender Grace Sommi. “K. C. [Ward] played me a great ball and I just played it over to Morgan who had a great finish,” Sommi said. “I think we’re finally starting to play as a team and stringing s o m e Lady Admirals 3 passes Lady Greene Devils 1 together,” Sommi added. “It’s looking really good.” “We definitely have great leaders on the field.” Guigou’s goal in the 52nd minute was assisted on a nice diagonal cross from junior midfielder Jordan Fierley. “Overall it was our best outing of the season,” Dennis Lindsay, Lady Admirals head coach, said. “We’re starting to slowly put it together. “We didn’t stop playing after we scored a goal,” Lindsay added about overcoming the impression of “having it made and relaxing” after scoring goals in their previous games. Senior All-state midfielder K. C. Ward continues to add more minutes to her playing time, steadily getting back into game shape after recovering from a concussion. “It’s good to have
K.C. back a few more minutes a game,” Lindsay said. According to Farragut statistics, Greeneville actually outshot the Lady Admirals 10-8. As a team, “We’ve still got a long way to go. I see a lot of things we can improve on,” Lindsay said. A first-half goal from Sommi, a header off a Goetz corner kick, allowed the Lady Admirals to tie Father Ryan 1-1 at Farragut Friday evening, Aug. 29. “They scored in the last minute to tie us,” Lindsay said. “We didn’t look very good. That’s the first time we had been on the field in a long time. We looked sluggish.” Individually, “Grace Sommi, she looked real good,” the FHS skipper said, adding that Sommi’s goal “was just determination.” The visitors from Nashville out-shot FHS 10-7. Clarksville blanked the Lady Admirals 4-0 Saturday, Aug. 30, at Bearden’s Bruce Allender Field. “They just outplayed us,” Lindsay said. “They were passing all around us.” The CHS Lady Wildcats outshot Farragut 13-10.

After frustrating tie, HVA rallies for huge win ■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
Frustration levels were high with Hardin Valley Academy girls soccer after opening Bearden Invitational play with consecutive ties — especially a scoreless tie versus McMinn County Saturday afternoon, Aug. 30, where four Lady Hawks shots hit the post or crossbar. But all’s well that ends well, as HVA surprised powerful and previously unbeaten Ravenwood with a 2-1 victory Sunday morning, Aug. 31, at BHS’s Bruce Allender Field. Moreover, this gigantic feat was accomplished without senior star defender Sierra Palmer, who missed the game due to an injured toe. “It’s the first time all year we’ve put everyLady Hawks 2 t h i n g together Lady Raptors 1 … it’s a great win for our program,” said HVA head coach Mike McLean, whose team entered the week with a 3-0-2 overall record. A Rachel Lindsay goal put the Lady Hawks up 1-0 midway into the first half before Ravenwood tied the game “15 or 20 minutes later.” Less than two minutes later, a Taylor Bishop shot rebounded off the RHS goalkeeper and Hardin Valley teammate Gwen Breslin was there to knock home the eventual game-winning goal. While saying his team has “defended well so far this year,” the difference Sunday was “our shots were better, we started hitting the target,” McLean added. Individually against Ravenwood, “Dominique Rowe had an excellent game, and Kelsey Klett,” McLean said. “We had a freshman step up, Katie Thomas,” a center-midfielder who helped slow down one of Ravenwood’s star players. According to McLean, Hardin Valley held a 12-9 shots-on-goal edge against the Lady Raptors. Hardin Valley held a significant shots-on-goal edge on McMinn, a team it beat 1-0 earlier this season at MCHS. “It’s a good thing that we’re starting to create chances, better than yesterday, but we’re not finishing them,” McLean said in comparison with a 1-1 the day before against Notre Dame (Rachel Lindsay scoring HVA’s goal). “We’ve got to work on some finishing and we’ll be fine.” Individually against McMinn, “Dominique Rowe was probably our best player,” McLean said. “And Katie Thomas, a freshman, she played well today as well.” Gabby Powers, HVA junior midfielder, said the game was “very frustrating, we just need to start working on finishing more and taking just us and the keeper. But it was a good game.” “I think we did well on making

runs,” Powers added. “Unluckily, some of them got called offsides that I didn’t think should be called, but that’s part of the game. I thought we did well passing it around, working well off each other.” As for McMinn (1-1-2 record after Saturday), “I think they’re very good,” Powers said. “I thought both teams played better this game. It was just unlucky.” Brittany Hart, Lady Cherokees head coach, said about Hardin Valley, “I think they had a very unlucky game. I think we were very lucky. … If people had finished I think the game would have been different. “But luckily Hardin Valley couldn’t finish. And unfortunately, we couldn’t finish either,” Hart added. About comparing her two games versus HVA, “I think we’ve improved since the beginning of our season,” Hart said.

Hawks From page 8A
Jones said his veteran offense line “did a great job tonight: Garrett Curtis, Joey Cave, Matt Howard, Jonah Weston and Xan Witherspoon.” Ferguson added, “They’re the best offensive line you could ever ask for, man. They’re the toughest, meanest, biggest — they’re the best.” Hardin Valley out-gained Karns in total yards 356-248 while out-rushing the Beavers 260-55. Defensively, “It was a collective team effort here tonight, the guys really came out and played hard,” Jones said. “Coach [Paul] Maynard [defensive coordinator] had the guys flying around and did a good job.” Alan Grigsby’s punt, downed on the Karns 1, set up a safety. Beavers running back Javon Harper was dropped in the end zone by Garrett Curtis and Haddon Hill less than four minutes into the game. Curtis said Maynard and his defensive coaches emphasized “we had to create momentum on the line of scrimmage. Hopefully we did that.” Karns quarterback Greg Tye said Hardin Valley’s defensive strength “is probably their Dline. Their D-line is pretty good.” Aguero’s 26-yard kickoff return and 11-yard pass from HVA quarterback Nathan White to Chris Hayes set up Ferguson’s 5-yard TD run making it 9-0. Hayes later had a 21-yard endaround run. Linebacker Zach Readett’s minus-eight sack of Karns quarterback Greg Tye preceded a 39yard punt return by Tommy Smith Jr. aided by a crunching block by Isaac Aguero. Isaiah Aguero then ran for 25 yards before scoring from four yards out. It was 16-0. “We knew that this group of backs was going to be special,” Curtis said. “As linemen, what we did is we were just like, ‘Since they’re going to be that special, we’ve got to be more special. … There were times when we kind of screwed up but they still found holes to get through.”
Karns fired a 55-yard TD pass, Tye to Jemerial Parks, but the Hawks responded. A 27-yard Isaiah Aguero kickoff return set up Ferguson’s 5-yard scoring run (47-yard drive). White 2-point pass made it 24-7. Grigsby was 7-of-8 on extra points, with the only miss caused by a poor snap. Readett, a senior who led the Hawks with eight total tackles, sacked Tye in the end zone for another HVA safety making it 267 just before the end of one quarter, which lasted 55 minutes. “I thought we played pretty good. We worked hard all week to get to this point,” Readett said. A 69-yard Hardin Valley touchdown drive was fueled by a fake 41-yard field goal attempt, as Ferguson gained 15 yards on an end around. Isaiah Aguero scored from 10 yards out. It was 32-7. Joe DeFur recovered a Karns fumble at the HVA 22 with 4:28 left in the half. Ferguson scored from 10 yards out a little more than two minutes later. It was 39-7. Frizzell’s 64-yard scoring run right up the middle, less than one minute into the third quarter, made it 46-7. A 51-yard Hawks scoring drive, featuring Frizzell’s 39-yard run, ended with back-up quarterback Gavin Greene scoring from 2 yards out with nine minutes left in the game. Karns scored twice thereafter on Hardin Valley second and third-string defenders. Frizzell also had a minus-9 quarterback sack. Isaac Aguero also had an interception. Isaiah Aguero came up with a minus-2 hit on fourth-and-1 to kill a Beavers drive at the HVA 37 midway into the second quarter. Tobi Kilgore, Beavers head coach, said “all the credit goes to Hardin Valley, they absolutely killed us. We left some things out there and Hardin Valley took advantage of it. … We’re not anywhere close to where they are to being able to play on their level yet.” Kilgore added, “There was horrible officiating all night. … and bad play by us.”

Durham new FHS wrestling skipper Looks to rebuilt a once local powerhouse program

Farragut’s Davis Simmons stops Wildcat quarterback Gavin Warrington in the backfield for a loss during Week 1 action at Blankenship Field in Oak Ridge.
Admirals From page 8A
“We just couldn’t get any momentum,” Courtney said. “[The Wildcats] came at us pretty hard. We played three quarterbacks tonight and we just couldn’t get in sync.” The Admirals’ biggest offensive play came when running back Jeremiah Partin gained 36 yards on a fake punt. Oak Ridge was subsequently flagged for a facemask penalty and that put the ball on the Wildcats’ 25-yard line. Farragut was turned away a short time later when Oak Ridge made a fourth-down stop. Partin said the fake caught everybody by surprise. “No one was expecting it and
we had the right play called,” he said. The senior running back said that Naumoff’s injury had a huge impact on the game. “We didn’t have our quarterback and that hurt because we run a very complicated offense,” he said. “We had guys who weren’t really ready but Cole [Morgan] really did a good job [in the first half].” Morgan, Fulton and Freeman combined to complete 8-of-23 passing attempts for 67 yards. Oak Ridge forced Farragut into three turnovers, including a pair of interceptions. Oak Ridge scored the game’s lone touchdown when senior defensive back Jemiah Hall intercepted a pass and scampered 72
yards for a touchdown. Nickle’s extra point made it 10-0 with 9:41 left in the third stanza. Nickle closed the scoring with a 46-yard field goal early in the final frame. Next up for the Ads is a District 4-AAA showdown at home versus Lenoir City Friday, Sept. 5.

Region wrestling champ in the 145-pound class at Cumberland County High School his senior year in 2003, Jonathan Durham has landed his first wrestling head coaching job as skipper at Farragut High School. A former assistant coach at Stone Memorial and Halls high schools, “He’s got a great background working for other topnotch programs,” FHS athletic director Donald Dodgen said about Durham, who was hired Aug. 19. “A real, real heady young man. A hard worker. “I think he will relate to the Farragut family very, very well.” “It’s a pretty exciting experience for me to be at Farragut now,” said Durham, 30, a non-faculty coach who earned a bachelor’s degree in Secondary Education/History at Tennessee Tech. “What I’m going to start doing now is working with the kids and figuring out where they are in their program,” Durham added. “For this year, especially, it looks to be a rebuilding year.”
With one goal to “see if I can get a hold of some of the alumni,” Durham added he wants to “get the Farragut wrestling team noticed in the Farragut community. … We need to build our program. It’s small right now.” Durham is looking to recapture Admirals wrestling glory from the late 1990s into the mid2000s, when FHS was dominant regionally in both dual match and individual meet match team points. A handful of Admirals made it to the pinnacle of high school success — winning state championships. Nick Reveiz, who went on to become an All-SEC linebacker at Tennessee, ended his FHS career as a two-time state champion. Durham, a three-time state qualifier at Cumberland County, “interviewed with the committee. We have a committee of five people,” Dodgen said. “After that, we recommended him to Ms. [Stephanie] Thompson [FHS principal]. Ms. Thompson and I made the final decision.” Durham’s wife is Katherine Durham.

Lady ’Dawgs fall prey to efficient Ravenwood attack, 8-2
■
KEN LAY Correspondent
Bearden High school girls soccer head coach Ryan Radcliffe reminded his Lady Bulldogs not to look at the Bruce Allender Field scoreboard Saturday night. The scoreboard said that BHS lost to Ravenwood 8-2 in its finale of the Bearden Invitational. “It was the best loss,” Radcliffe said. “If you didn’t look at the scoreboard you would’ve thought that we controlled the whole game. Ravenwood lost only one player from last year’s squad that eliminated top-ranked Farragut in the Class AAA state semifinals en route to posting a runner-up finish, “Ravenwood is the best team in

have to learn from them. Our kids are going to have to take their lumps and we have to continue to progress. “Fulton is what I would consider a perennial power and that’s the kind of team that we want to be. We have to look at an opponent like Fulton and emulate that.” And who wouldn’t want to mimic the success that has been enjoyed by the Falcons. Fulton broke a pair of school records against the Bulldogs. Fulton scored a school-record 84 points against Bearden (0-2). The Falcons’ win also represented its largest margin of victory. Moreover, those records were only a week old. Fulton (2-0) defeated Powell 83-3 in its season opener at home on Aug. 22. Fulton scored early and often against the Bulldogs. The Falcons took a 7-0 lead when Domonique Williams returned the game’s opening kickoff 97

And Lady Raptors 8 I think Lady Bulldogs 2 that we can compete with them at the end of the season. Tonight, I think we showed what we were made of.” Bearden (1-2-1) started fast and got some early shots on goal. Trouble was, the Lady Bulldogs couldn’t get the ball past Lady Raptors’ goalkeeper Lauren Cunningham. The Lady Soccer Dawgs actually outshot Ravenwood 8-7 over the first 40 minutes. All the Lady Bulldogs had to show for their stellar effort was a 4-0 deficit. yards. Bearden went three-andout on its first possession before Fulton’s Adam Diggs made the score 14-0 with a 41-yard touchdown pass less than two minutes into the game. And that was only the beginning of a potent opening half for the two-time defending state champs. Fulton amassed 70 points in the first 24 minutes. The Falcons’ defense was also stout as the Bulldogs managed to gain just 33 yards of total offense before halftime. Bearden gained just 69 yards in the contest that was, for all intents and purposes, over early. The Bulldogs got their inaugural first down late in the game against Fulton’s reserves. Bearden opens the District 4AAA portion of its schedule at Heritage Friday, Sept. 5. “We have to go to Blount County and we have to get ready for Heritage,” Shinlever, Bearden’s first-year head coach, said. “That is our most important game of the season because it’s our next game.”
“That is a great team,” Radcliffe said of Ravenwood. “They lost one girl from last year’s team that finished runnerup. “And from everything I’ve heard, they should’ve won.” Ravenwood, which improved to 8-0 with Saturday evening’s seemingly lopsided victory over the host Lady Bulldogs, scored first when Karlie Paschall tallied in the 12th minute. From there, the Lady Raptors scored three more markers in a 10-minute stretch. Ravenwood went up 2-0 on a goal by Julie Wasack two minutes later. Paschall, who finished the match with four goals, added her second tally to make the score 30 in the 14th minute. She completed her hat trick and closed

out the first-half scoring in the 22nd minute. The Lady Raptors continued their scoring barrage early in the second half when Lexi Arnold chipped the ball past Bearden junior goalkeeper Kay Lee Wentz in the 50th minute to make the score 5-0. The Lady Bulldogs finally got on the board when junior defender Riley Strickland scored in the 53rd minute. “This just prepares us for the rest of the season,” Strickland, who is Bearden’s only returning defender, said. “We played them last year and we tied, so we knew what we had to do. I thought that the result didn’t show the effort that we put in. Our back line is young and they’ve been struggling. This is the opposite of last season when
we started well and fell off.” Bearden’s Clarity Voy finished off the evening’s scoring with a late goal in the 87th minute. “We controlled most of the possession but the chips didn’t fall our way,” Voy, Bearden’s sophomore midfielder, said. “We saw their results and they made us fear them but I think that fear made us play better.” Bearden got its first win of the 2014 season when it routed Greeneville 5-1 Friday night. Casey Riemer and Ashley Seltzer scored two goals apiece and Taylor Frizen also had a marker. BHS opened tourney play with a 3-3 draw against Clarksville Thursday, Aug. 28. Seltzer scored twice and Frizen had a goal in that match for Bearden, which erased a 3-1 deficit.

KEN LAY Correspondent
Intensity in the chase for the farragutpress How the West Was Won trophy presented by 3 Minute Magic Carwash will step up as area teams will play their first district games Friday night, Sept. 5. After Week 1, three teams (Hardin Valley Academy, Knoxville Catholic High School and Christian Academy of Knoxville) are undefeated. Bearden and Farragut are in search of their first win. Something, however, will have to give as two of the area’s unbeaten teams will square off against each other. The Irish and Warriors will square off at Warrior Stadium in the District 4-AA opener for these Cedar Bluff rivals. The Hawks notched a win in the season opener against Karns last week while the Admirals and the Bulldogs are searching for answers. Both will be seeking their first wins when they hit the gridiron this week. Bearden and Farragut both were shut out on the road last week. The Ads lost 13-0 at Oak Ridge in a defensive struggle. Bearden, meanwhile, was blanked 84-0 last week at Fulton’s Bob
Black Field. The Bulldogs came up on the short end of a 35-0 decision against Sevier County in Week 0. CAK (2-0) routed Powell 47-13 on the road last week. The Warriors scored on each of their first five possessions en route to recording an impressive victory against the winless Panthers (0-2). Warriors’ sophomore quarterback Cole Smith went 32-for-38 for 375 yards and two touchdown passes. He also rushed for a score. CAK wide receiver Phillip Nichols had 15 receptions and amassed 200 yards and scored a touchdown. Catholic also improved to 2-0 and was dominant in a 61-0 win over Coalfield Friday at Blaine Stadium. Irish field general Zac Jancek had three touchdown passes and Logan Lacey scored three different ways for Catholic. He caught a TD pass, had a fumble return for a score and rushed for a touchdown. Dom Souder also caught a pair of touchdown passes for Catholic, which defeated the Warriors last season. Meanwhile, HVA prevailed 53-21 over the Beavers (0-2). Ryan Ferguson, the Hawks’ senior tailback scored three times in the game and finished with 118 yards

in the contest. His touchdown runs covered five, five and 10 yards respectively. Ferguson got help from fellow running back Isaiah Aguero, who had a 4-yard scoring plunge. Hardin Valley’s defense joined the fun and scored a pair of safeties. The Hawks opened a 39-7 lead by halftime. The Hawks will face another road test this week. HVA will invade William Blount Friday night. The Governors (0-2) dropped a 35-24 road decision to Morristown East last week. Farragut will enter District 4AAA play against Lenoir City this week. It will be the first of three straight home games for the Ads, who dropped to 0-2 with a 13-0 loss at Oak Ridge in the season opener for the Wildcats. The two defenses took center stage in this tilt. Oak Ridge broke the scoring drought when kicker Brandon Nickle kicked a 43-yard field goal with 59.7 seconds remaining in the second quarter. FHS was without junior starting quarterback Jacob Naumoff, who missed the game with a foot injury. Naumoff sustained the injury in the Admirals’ season-opening home loss to Kingsport Dobyns-

Bennett Aug. 22. Ads’ head coach Eddie Courtney said he hopes to have his starter back under center when Farragut entertains the Panthers Friday night. In Naumoff’s absence, the Admirals used three quarterbacks. Cole Morgan started while sophomores Justen Freeman and Adam Fulton both played after halftime. Farragut’s most productive offensive play came on a long run by Jeremiah Parton on a fake punt. Oak Ridge scored its lone TD on a 72-yard interception return by Jemiah Hall early in the third stanza. Nickle closed out the scoring with another long field goal.
Lenoir City (0-1) fell 31-10 to longtime rival Loudon last week. Meanwhile the Bulldogs dropped to 0-2 and had a long night against the Falcons. Fulton scored 70 first-half points. The Falcons, who are the two-time defending 4A state champions, had a record-setting evening. Fulton’s 84 points represented a school record, erasing the previous high of 83, set last week against Powell. Next up for Bearden is a league showdown at Heritage. The Mountaineers (0-1) wound up on the short end of a 55-14 decision against unbeaten South-Doyle.

Farragut resident has quilt accepted in Wisconsin Quilt Expo ■
DAN BARILE editor@farragutpress.com
Farragut resident Linda Roy’s quilt titled “Redbud Ramble” has been accepted in the 2014 Quilt Expo quilt contest, which is part of the 10th annual Quilt Expo held Sept. 4-6 in the Exhibition Hall at Alliant Energy Center in Madison, Wis. Entering quilting competitions is nothing new to Roy, a veteran quilter who has been producing quilts featuring her original designs for nearly 25 years. “I’ve been entering Quilt Expo for several years,” Roy said. “I used to live in Wisconsin, so I was aware of the show. … We moved (to Farragut) about 10 years ago and I started entering (the Wisconsin) show.” However, Roy is no stranger to this contest. Roy said she has had quilts in the expo several times in the past and has won awards there. Roy began her foray in the quilting world after being relocated through her husband’s job. “My husband used to work for a company that transferred us all over the country. We trans-
ferred from California to Arkansas in 1990 and I met a lady who showed me the basics of quilting. Most of my quilts, or just about all of my quilts, I design myself,” she said. As for this quilt, Roy said, “When we moved here I had never noticed the Redbud tree and we had one in our yard. When the blossoms opened in the spring it always seemed to take a backseat to the dogwood in the quilt world. So I just wanted to focus on the Redbud and that’s what this quilt is, my representation of Redbud.” Roy added, “Most of my quilts are about 80-inches-square in size and they are all hand appliquéd, hand quilted, hand embroidered, which there are less and less of them nowadays cause a lot of people are turning to the machines. They can make so many more quilts. But I like the handwork, it relaxes me. “Most of my large quilts take nine months to a year. I usually work on one project at a time. I don’t have multiple projects going on at the same time.” The majority of the quilts Roy creates are heirloom quality and See QUILT on Page 5B

Parents Night has good turnout at FPS ■ TAMMY CHEEK
tcheek@farragutpress.com
Farragut Primary School parents had an opportunity to meet their children’s teachers during Parent Night. “It’s a wonderful chance for parents to met the teachers, ask about policy and find out about what teachers expect from the students,” Wendi Lesmerises, the FPS librarian and parent of a first-grader, said. “I love to go into the classroom and see how it’s organized.” The event, which took place Thursday, Aug. 21, in Farragut Primary School, was an opportunity for parents to learn about the Parent-Teacher Association and events taking place during the year, Arlene Driver, PTA president, said. “It was great,” Driver said. “A lot of people came.” “All three nights [of Parent Night] were extremely successful,” principal Gina Byrd said. “We had a majority of our parents who were able to make it to Parent Night. “All of our teachers were very pleased with the turnout,” Byrd added. “The informational meetings are very beneficial to the parents. They are able to learn what the expectations are throughout the year in the classroom, as well as throughout the school.” During one of the nights, Byrd asked the kindergarten parents how many were new, Driver said. “Three-fourths of the people were new to Farragut,” Driver said. “That’s quite a few kindergarten parents. “Right now, our [entire school] enrollment is right at 945 students,” Byrd said. Driver told parents about the sales of coupon books, which are expected to arrive Sept. 4; how parents can volunteer, policy for

Leading the nation in punting in 1973 as a senior at Wake Forest University, Knoxville native Chuck Ramsey said he was caught off guard on two fronts as a red-shirt sophomore punter, kicker and back-up quarterback in 1971. “We’re playing Miami at Wake Forest, and it’s Arnold Palmer Night, he went to Wake. … He’s standing on our sideline,” Ramsey, a punter with the NFL’s New York Jets for eight seasons (1977-84), said about the pro golfing legend during his address to The Rotary Club of Turkey Creek Sunset. During an early game drive, “The coach comes over to me and says, ‘Chuck, if we attempt a field
goal you’re in,’” Ramsey recalled about what would become his first-ever major college play. “I said, ‘What?’ because I’m thinking I’m red-shirted.” Before attempting a “long” field goal, “I was scared to death, things were going a warped speed, it was a long field goal,” Ramsey said. Nailing the field goal, “I go to the sideline and Arnie Palmer meets me out on the numbers on the field, and he jumps up and down and hits me on the head and pats me on the back, and I’m still trying to take it all in,” Ramsey said.

There are no disorganized spiders I was watching what I call a “fall” spider make its web on our deck and I wondered if it were a boy or a girl. I guess I c o u l d Google which one does that work, but that’s not Pam really the point of Young my essay Make it today. Fun! What really got Nelly (my inner child) and me thinking about was; are there any disorganized spiders? As I watched this busy spider making this masterpiece in silk as if she’d (I’ve decided she’s a girl)
thoroughly studied some manual on a website about web making or watched a YouTube video on the subject, it occurred to me I’ve never seen a rectangular web filled with heart-shaped lines or triangular webs with crosses all around or webs in rainbow colors shaped like wedding cakes. Then a sweet thought swept over me with the realization that within that busy little girl was genius! I also had to conclude there are no disorganized spiders. (I don’t think they have as much fun as we do.) First, this spider had to start with a plan passed down from generation to generation. If she didn’t, her web would be different and every “fall” spider web is constructed from the same blue print. I Googled, “How do spiders make a web?” (Sometimes I’m embarrassed to ask Google questions, thinking it might be a stupid ques-
tion. I’m always happy when I see that others before me have wondered the same “stupid” things. I’ll tell you in a minute what I found out.) Second, she had to follow that plan. What a fresh idea! Start with a tried and true plan and follow it! Buy a calendar and a watch and use them. Google told me the spider does have conscious choices to make when she’s making her web. She first has to pick a place to start and release a sticky thread that is blown away with the wind. If the breeze carries the silken line to a spot where the first bridge is formed, she cautiously crosses along the thin line reinforcing it with a second line. She reinforces the line until it’s strong enough. (That tells me she has to think about it and do some deciding.) The rest of the work all goes according to the master plan and when she’s all done she waits in the
middle for her groceries to be delivered. After a night of grocery deliveries the web becomes worn out. The spider removes the silk in the morning by eating it, only leaving the first bridge line. After a daytime rest she constructs a new web in the evening. If the deliveries were low and the web was not heavily damaged it may stay during the day and be reused after minor repairing. I love that each of our homes is different and we have the freedom to decide on the plan for being organized that fits us the best, but then we must stick to the plan. Just think if the spider didn’t stick to her plan or if she sat and played video games or watched TV when she should be resting, she’d be too pooped to make a new web in the evening and there’d be no place to catch the groceries. Just like a spider, our work is
never done, but if we pick a plan that we know works and we follow it and stick to it we get to enjoy life way more than if we don’t. Now I have to go get groceries. If you’d like a tried and true plan designed by and for the genetically disorganized, may I suggest reading The Joy of Being Disorganized? The plan is simp, simp, simple! AND if you have a family that helps create the messes, this plan gives you basic steps in the Art of Delegation! If you’d like to read one of my favorite chapters, here’s Chapter Seven: There Arose Such a Clutter as a gift from me. http://lp.ho-usefairy.org/lp-joy-ofbeing-disorganized-chapter-seven

Blach promoted to VP Rural/Metro Christopher Blach has been promoted to vice president of operations for Rural/Metro’s Tennessee division. Rural Metro of East Tennessee is comprised of more than 800 employees, who serve Knox, Blount, Loudon, McMinn, Polk and Franklin counties, Cassandra Novy, media Blach relations coordinator with Rural/Metro, said. Blach will immediately focus on the East and West Tennessee markets, Novy said. “Chris has proven he can fortuitously carry out the operations necessary to ensure Rural/Metro’s success within the health care industry,” Mark Lashley, senior vice president of Rural/Metro, said. “We are thrilled to announce his promotion and are confident of his placement in this role.”

Previously, Blach was regional director of Rural/Metro’s Florida division. As vice president in Tennessee, he will oversee the state and other surrounding areas to be added in the future, Novy said. She added Blach plans to relocate to the Knoxville area in the next several weeks. “Having successfully overseen the overall operational and financial performance of Rural/Metro’s Central Florida operations, the company is confident that he will thoroughly execute the duties associated with his role,” Novy said. “Under Blach’s leadership, the Central Florida division continues to demonstrate what Rural/Metro is capable of delivering in patient care, employee care and business care. “Blach and his teams’ metrics are amongst the best in all of Rural/Metro’s critical categories,” she said. He completed the paramedic program at Northeastern University in 1989 and received official citations from Massachusetts Senate and House
of Representatives for contributions to the EMS field, Novy said. Blach is a member of the Orlando Economic Development Commission and serves as cochairman of the Central Florida After-School All-Stars program. Also, he is a member of the Valencia College EMS Advisory Board, and he sits on the Orange County EMS Operations, Communications and Medical Control and Quality Council committees. In 2012, Blach was recognized as Orange County EMS Administrator of the Year and the Orlando Business Journal nominated him as one of “Orlando’s Most Influential Men.” Rural/Metro is the largest emergency service provider in East Tennessee, Novy said. She added it is the only nationally accredited ambulance provider in the state by the Commission on Accreditation of Ambulance Services, which, she said, is the gold standard for the ambulance industry.

have the appraisals bearing their value. Her next project is already in the works. “My next project is going to have something to do with my daughter-in-law and son’s wedding,” Roy added. “[They] were married in June and her theme colors for her wedding were peacock colors, so this represents that and at some point I’ll give them the quilt. It’s a bed size, not a king size, so they can
either display it on the wall or they can put it on a bed — all peacock colors with a giant peacock in the center. Every one that I do is different so there is not another one to really compare it to except to its appliqué. Quilts accepted in the 10-category contest are judged on visual impact and stitching technique. Awards will be given for Best of Show, and first-, second- and third-place in each category. One quilt will be selected by attendees to receive the Viewers' Choice award. Roy said she will not be
attending the expo because it’s “too far from here.” Additional Quilt Expo highlights include hundreds of quilts on exhibit, a vendor mall, stage presentations, Sit & Sew and hands-on workshops, nationally known celebrity presenters, the opportunity to meet and chat with Nancy Zieman of public television’s "Sewing With Nancy," a prize raffle, two special evening events and a "Quilt to Give" community service project.

Ramsey From page 2B
Wake, kept the membership constantly laughing during a roughly 30-minute appearance Tuesday, Aug. 19, in Faith Lutheran Church. It included a question-and-answer session. “I had been playing football since seventh grade, and it was not until my third year with the New York Jets that I was ever on a team that had a winning season,” Ramsey, who punted without a shoe his final six NFL seasons, said. A star quarterback and kicker at West High School (Class of 1970), Ramsey said about dealing with the New York media, “Whoa, boy, that’s something that I had a harsh time with. They would take anything that you said, that they
could twist, and they would do it. … You read what they print the next day and it’s like, ‘I didn’t say that.’ It can be brutal. I wasn’t used to anything like that.” Ramsey recalled angering his Jets head coach, Walt Michaels, after a New York Post headline read, “’Ramsey blasts coach.’” Called into Michaels’ office, “He threw [the paper] down on his desk,” Ramsey added. “I didn’t remember blasting him. He jumped all over me for that. … I told him, ‘I didn’t mean to blast you.’” Coming out of West, “I was all set to go to The University of Tennessee … because my blood was orange,” Ramsey, who currently runs a recruiting service to match high school student/athletes with smaller universities and colleges, said.
However, “Wake Forest called me. They invited me over for an official visit, to a football game.” he added. “I didn’t know anything about Wake Forest. … The only reason I wanted to go was because I had never flown before and I just wanted to see what it’s like.” Upon arriving at the WinstonSalem, N.C. campus, “It was incredible … a very academic school,” Ramsey said about “the smallest school in Division I athletics.” Ramsey remembers “quarterbacking every play against Tennessee” as a junior in 1972 playing in Neyland Stadium. “That was a long game,” he added about a blowout loss. “It was a David versus Goliath kind of thing when we play a team like Tennessee.”

Thompson said a new attraction to the fair lineup is the Medal of Honor photography competition. People can enter a photograph that represents the core values of the Congressional Medal of Honor – courage, commitment, integrity, sacrifice, citizenship and patriotism. “The Tennessee Valley Fair is honored to offer this competition in conjunction with the Medal of Honor Convention Wednesday, Sept. 10, through Saturday, Sept. 13. Additionally, there was a Medal
of Honor student art competition for which fair-goers will be able to see student art from across East Tennessee. Works were handselected and submitted by area teachers, Thompson said. Another new event is a Midweek Retreat starting at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 10, to empower East Tennessee youth to engage communities through Christ-like service. It kicks off with a message from youth speaker, Lucas Hurd, and a concert by contemporary Christian artist, Big Daddy Weave. Thompson said youth groups can showcase recent service projects on Instagram for a chance to win $500 from ChickFil-A. The fair also features a WDVX Youth Showcase Friday, Sept. 12, featuring outstanding up-and-coming young musicians; a Princess Party at the Fair from noon to 2 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 13, when girls are encouraged to dress as their favorite princess and enjoy an afternoon with Cinderella, Princes Anna and Princess Elsa; Toss Like a Boss Cornhole Tournament starts at 3 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 13; an Mmm Bacon cooking competition; Great Balls of Fire chili cook-off judging 7 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 10; giant growing contest for largest pumpkins and watermelons; a scarecrow competition; a Diaper Cake baby shower-inspired contest and a cake pop competition. “We’re proud to be a familyfriendly event that integrates educational elements into fun exhibits and attractions,” Thompson said.
the Vet
A: A hernia is a condition where the body wall is not completely intact or formed. Umbilical hernias, also nick-
named ‘belly button hernias’, occur at the umbilicus, or belly button, and appears as a round, nonpainful bulge at the center of a dog’s abdomen. With the body wall not being intact, skin becomes the only barrier between the abdominal organs and the outside environment. Small hernias should present no concern. When the hernia is small, only a small amount of abdominal fat can fall or slip into the hernia. Owners often elect to correct them when the pet is spayed or neutered. Large hernias do present a medical concern. If the hernia is large, intestines could slip into the hernia. If they should become stuck or ‘entrapped’ in the hernia, the intestines cannot move as they need to, and can lose their blood supply. Pets can become ill very quickly and require emergency surgery.
Therefore, it is recommended that large hernias should be surgically corrected to prevent such problems before they occur. Umbilical hernias in dogs are thought to be genetic. They are somewhat common in puppies and do occur in kittens too, but with less frequency. Regarding your dog playing with Red, if it’s a small hernia, you should have no concerns. Your neighbor should follow her veterinarian’s recommendations regarding if surgery is needed now or not. If surgery is required soon, your friend will be advised as to when Red is able to play after surgery.
