Town sets for 5th annual Taste of Farragut ■
ROBBY O’DANIEL rodaniel@farragutpress.com
The 5th Annual Taste of Farragut, presented by TDS, will take place from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m., Friday, Sept. 27, in the old Kroger parking lot along Kingston Pike. “It’s an opportunity to showcase Farragut’s eateries and beverage establishments, and this year we’re going with a Farragut Foodies theme and asking our restaurants to put their best bite forward,” said Allison Sousa, executive director of the
Farragut Business Alliance. “... When they’re doing their samples, we want them to do a sample that’s really going to wow people, whether the food itself is really creative or they use an interesting vessel to serve it in or colorful garnishes, different, unexpected shapes of food. We want them to have the big city street food experience.” She said the event is “the Farragut Business Alliance’s one and only fundraiser each year.” Between 30 and 35 restaurants and beverage distributors are expected to participate, Sousa
said. “Every restaurant will be providing, when folks come through the gates, they’ll get a ticket book where they’ll be able to visit each restaurant one time, and they will enjoy a Best Bite sample from each restaurant,” she said. Beverage distributors will offer wines, high-proof beer and pre-mixed drinks with a low alcohol content, she said. “To purchase tickets in advance online, it’s $25 for adults, $10 children 6-11, children 5 and under are free,” she said. “... If you pur-
chase at the gate, the children prices stay the same, but the adult prices go up to $30, and you can purchase online up to noon the day of the event.” Event attendees only have to pay for the ticket, she said. “Once they get in the gate, they won’t pay for anything else,” she said. According to the Farragut Business Alliance website, a partial vendor list includes Beverage Control, B&T Distributing, Corks Wine & Spirits, Campbell Station Wine & Spirits, D&V Distributing, Dixie Lee Wines &
Liquors, Costco Wholesale, Farragut Wine & Spirits, Frullati Cafe & Bakery, Gigi’s Cupcakes, George Dinwiddie Distributing, Jet’s Pizza, Knoxville Beverage Company, Lipman Brothers, Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, Mario’s Pizza and Grill, Meksiko Cantina, Newk’s Express Café, Publix in Turkey Creek, Seasons, Snappy Tomato Pizza, Shrimp Oysters & Beer, The Fresh Market, The Shrimp Dock and Triple C Distributing Company.

BOMA amends budget ■ STEPHANIE EDWARDS Correspondent
Farragut’s Board of Mayor and Aldermen approved the first reading of Ordinance 13-21 to amend Ordinance 13-19, the Fiscal Year 2014 Budget at its Aug. 22 meeting, in the following ways: The State Street Aid fund will be amended by increasing the appropriated expenditures by $476,402. The resurfacing budget for the previous year was $500,000; however, only $23,598 was spent. The remaining amount will be transferred to the current fiscal year. The Capital Investment Program will be amended by increasing the appropriated expenditures by $100,000. Funds for the Outlet Drive Extension project were budgeted in FY2012 but not expended until FY2014 budget. This will allow the Town
to purchase approximately 15,000 square feet of the frontage of the property located at the corner of New Snyder Road and Campbell Station Road for $96,771.49. The Equipment Replacement Fund will be amended by increasing the appropriated expenditures by $6,000. The funds will be used to replace the John Deere Gator used to maintain the Town’s parks. BOMA approved the adoption of the Emergency Management Plan. Area residents are expected to report emergency situations through the Knoxville-Knox County E-911 Center, which will determine whether a potential emergency situation exists. The Knoxville-Knox County Emergency Management Agency would take over from this point and if needed, activate the KnoxvilleSee BOMA on Page 2A

Recognized in 2008 by Tennessee Chapter of the American Planning Association as “Tennessee Planner of the Year,” Ruth Hawk was recognized for perhaps the last time in Farragut Town Hall Friday morning, Aug. 30. The relationship between Hawk, Community Development director who has been employed by the Town since March 1994, and town of Farragut officially was terminated Aug. 30 with Hawk pocketing a $41,733.78 “six-month severance payment,” said Town attorney Tom Hale. This was the financial part of a “Separation and Release Agreement” between the parties, officially approved during a rare Special Called Meeting by Board of Mayor and Aldermen Friday morning, Aug. 30, in Town Hall board room. Though Hawk’s departure has been the subject of various rumors soon after her final day serving the Town Friday, Aug. 16, one phrase in a Town press release made available at the meeting stated she “decided to
pursue new interests.” “The Town’s senior administrative staff and Ruth Hawk have an agreement pursuant to which Ms. Hawk would resign from her employment with the Town,” Hale announced upon returning from a roughly 20-minute executive session with BOMA and Town Administrator David Smoak. However, within the language of that separation-release agreement was included, in Paragraph 1, that Hawk “will not seek further employment with the Employer [town of Farragut].” Also, in Paragraph 6, Hawk “will not make disparaging or defamatory remarks or comments about Employer.” Conversely, the Town “will not make disparaging or defamatory remarks or comments about Employee.” A vote by BOMA was required “because it provides for a sixmonth severance payment to Ms. Hawk,” Hale added. “In part to recognize her 19 years of hard work for the Town.” Without any questions or statements by any Board member prior to its vote, BOMA voted unanimously to approve (4-0,
Alderman Jeff Elliott absent). Though Hawk was said to have “resigned,” Ward 1 Alderman Bob Markli made reference to a “staff decision” during a recent telephone interview. “I would say it was unfortunate for Ms. Hawk, and I won’t comment beyond that,” he said. “It was a staff decision and I 100 percent support our staff. … I’m sure it’s for the best.” Considering that Hawk’s ordinance interpretations often were considered stringent as quoted by various developers and often had them scrambling to revise plans brought before Farragut Municipal Planning Commission, “I think it is safe to say that there are many developers who will be comfortable with the staff decision,” Markli said. Any reply to telephone messages left at Hawk’s home seeking comment were not returned. Mark Shipley, assistant Community Development director under Hawk, will fill Hawk’s position pending Smoak’s chosen replacement. Smoak said he’d collaborate with Gary Palmer, assistant town See TOWN on Page 2A
‘Pike Picnic’ to feature music ■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
Fourth Annual Picnic on the Pike is all about the music. “This year we are changing it up quite a bit,” said Lauren Cox, special events and program coordinator for town of Farragut, coordinating sponsor, about this event that got it start in celebration of the Town’s 30th anniversary in 2010. “It’s just going to be about the music.” Two prominent local bands will be featured for two hours apiece, as Picnic on the Pike runs 1 to 5 p.m., Sunday, Sept. 29, in front yard of presenting sponsor farragutpress.
Also sponsored by Doug and Brenda Horne, Picnic on the Pike is free. “The Chillbillies are going to play from 1 to 3. They play a lot of cover songs like rock ‘n roll,” Cox said. “The Chillbillies play a lot at the Irish Times pub in Turkey Creek and everybody loves them. “We thought they would be a good band because we haven’t had them at any of our events, since they have such a high following and people really love their music.” Performing from 3 to 5 p.m. is Back Talk, with members quite familiar with Picnic on the Pike. “They pretty much play some
cover songs, too,” Cox said. “Some of their members are formerly from the Atomic Horns. … In previous years we’ve had Atomic Horns play Picnic on the Pike. People have been requesting for them to come back. “They’ll have the same sound as what the Atomic Horns had,” Cox added. “They have like the trumpet and trombone and the saxophone in their band.” While attendees are encouraged to bring chairs, blankets and food, “You can purchase food from a local food truck: Savory and Sweet food truck,” Cox said. “They will be our only food venSee PICNIC on Page 2A

As for a target number of attendees the Town would like to see, “I think if we had around 100 or 200 people that would be good,” Cox said. “We would be skid steer loader, one bucket truck and one 10-ton trailer. Town residents who are interested in emergency preparedness can pick up a bag at Farragut Town Hall that contains an emergency checklist and hand-crank radio. Also approved was Resolution R-2013-05, authorizing the threeyear Russell property Capital Outlay Note, Series 2013. The three-year note is a payment plan, totaling $750,000.

Complainant reported she did not have any more suspect information, but she obtained the suspects’ names from loss prevention. • Aug. 29: A 52-year-old woman was arrested at Kohl’s department store in Farragut after store personnel observed the arrestee remove a ring from its box and place it on her finger.

in the loss prevention office to await KCSO arrival. The woman was cited and issued a no trespassing order. • Aug. 27: A representative of U-Haul in Farragut reported to police an unknown suspect took a trailer from his business property without permission.

smaller event.” As for why it’s smaller, Cox said, “We haven’t had the turnout to keep all that going. And we want the event to stay,
and so we just make it about food and just make it about families coming out and having lunch together on the lawn.”

LCUB approves life insurance plan, carrier changes ■
ROBBY O’DANIEL rodaniel@farragutpress.com
Lenoir City Utilities Board approved a policy change and carrier change for LCUB life insurance at its Monday, Aug. 19 meeting. Lenoir City Vice Mayor Harry Wampler abstained. “As for the life insurance, as it stood tonight, there are no significant changes for active employees, but there are changes for retired employees and the board decided to actually add additional coverage where it was $1,000 up to $2,000 in pre-

vious plans,” LCUB general manager M. Shannon Littleton said. A new step-down process dictates the amount beneficiaries would receive upon the death of a retired LCUB employee. “The breakdown is new as well, because once you’re retired under the old plan, all that was available was that $1,000 to $2,000, and now it starts stepping down from $25,000,” Littleton said. “So at retirement age, up to age 65, it’s $25,000. From 65 to 70, it’s $10,000 and from 70 to 75, it’s $5,000, and of course, we just discussed, the 75 on was $0.” ling that this year through the ticket book at the registration,” she said. “Also the fact that instead of doing a decorating contest, where the restaurants do their own thing, the event organizers will be implementing a uniform theme and handling the decorations with the committee.

The board passed a motion to create this policy, as well as to address a specific case. “Our coverage for our old policy ended July 1, and we have to make premium coverage for the new plan,” Littleton said. “The only problem is there may be a couple of days lapse for the 75year-old-and-above issue. We’re not clear about that currently, but there could be an issue for that lapse in coverage and if there are, the board voted tonight to pay that $1,000 out of the general fund because we’re going to do it anyway. ... Unfortunately, we had someone pass away during this
few days here, few weeks of preparing and if there was an issue where that was not covered, the board said, ‘OK, we’ll go ahead and pay that $1,000 out of the general fund tonight.’” Littleton also will look into spouse coverage. “There’s a life insurance coverage for the spouse. If a spouse passes away while there’s an active employee working at LCUB, under the old plan, the active employee would receive $1,000 upon the spouse’s death,” he said. “The mayor thought it was important that we raise that.”

But people in that 75-andolder age range will not receive $0. LCUB also voted on a new policy. “If a retiree reaches 75 years of age under the old plan, let’s say he’s 76 or she’s 76 years of age and passes away, his or her beneficiary would receive $1,000,” Littleton said. “Under this plan, the plan itself, the beneficiary, 76, receives $0. But the plan did put in a provision tonight to allow $1,000 by policy, not by insurance plan per se but policy, we’re still going to keep the $1,000 in tact for 75 years and above.”

Ruth Hawk resigns from the town of Farragut. I am sure many people are happy that Ruth is no longer employed by Farragut, but, believe it or not, I am not one of them.

In my three years of serving on the FMPC and sitting right next to Ruth during all the sessions, I found her positions were always to make Farragut a better place … always. Did we agree all the time? Are you kidding? Did the FMPC and the BOMA do what they wanted to do regardless of Ruth’s opinion? Of course. Ruth was doing her job, and we were doing ours. So whether
• Farragutpress reported that the pedestrian told reporting officer that the accident was his fault. It was not his fault regardless of his opinion. Alan Sloan did our community a disservice by not taking this opportunity to point out that drivers in Farragut have become way too aggressive and are endangering the lives of our kids. • The “FYI” supplement in today’s farragutpress is a useful guide to Farragut and Knox County, even though I am not a town resident. Thanks for putting this together. Now if I can only remember to put it some place where I can find it when I need it! But I was totally dismayed at the credit for the photo on the front page: “Photo complementary of the town of Farragut.” I think you meant “Photo compliments of ... .” You may use the dictionary of your choice to ponder the differences between the words “complementary” and “complimentary.” • We live in a neighborhood that we are very fortunate that part of it with sidewalks for pedestrians. Does anyone have any advice on how to deal with people who choose to go running and run in the street rather than use the sidewalk and choose to run with the traffic rather than facing the traffic. How bad would it be for a person driving a car to let the people know that they are kind of causing a problem. I would appreciate the help. • As someone who has had dogs for a number of years, and dogs who would fight, I believe the two gentlemen
whose rottweiler and labrador got into [a fight] and the one guy got the tip of his finger bitten off. No way does he know which dog bit him. When dogs fight they move their heads and mouths way too fast to be sure. Both dogs should be checked for rabies and both dogs should be suspected of being dog aggressive and perhaps a danger, not just the “rottweiler,” a vicious breed to many. … There is no one breed that is intrinctly vicious to other dogs or people. When dogfights happen; people can get hurt when they put their hands in the middle. It’s a fact of life. Do not blame the alleged “bad dog breed.” • Stonecrest is definitely not the only subdivision in Farragut where people mow their grass into the street. I live in the Kingsgate-Turkey Creek Woods area and it’s a common practice there as well. There are a couple of houses on Red Mill Lane that are especially bad to shoot grass practically across the entire road. I agree it makes the house in particular and the neighborhood in general look very trashy. I am also going to call out those houses who don’t trim the overgrown grass and weeds off their curb. It’s unfortunate because just a few extra minutes of attention to detail can make a huge difference in the overall look of a home and subsequently the overall appearance of our neighborhood. • Editorial freedom is a wonderful concept, but it does come with its responsibilities.

Cunic KCT exposure has career impact
New teachers, staff at FHS
■
ROBBY O’DANIEL rodaniel@farragutpress.com
With a new school year, Farragut High School added new teachers and staff. New teachers include Gincy Brewster, Judy Siebert, Emily Beale, Laura Austin, Jan Hahn, Brooke Fogarty, Audrey Rucker and Amanda Casteel. New staff are Ashley Bennewitz, Holly Matthews, Andi Tenry and Jennifer Qualls. This is not the first goaround for Emily Beale, 26, at FHS. The first-year teacher attended as Beale a student and graduated from FHS in the Class of 2005. “I did want to go back to Farragut,” Beale said. “I know that Farragut is known for its excellence, and when you want to get a job, you want to work somewhere where you feel like everybody’s working towards the common goal of achievement, so I felt like it was a good fit for me, coming back to Farragut.” She earned her bachelor’s degree in business administration from The University of Tennessee and got her master’s of teaching degree at the University of the Cumberlands, she said. “I never thought I was going to be a teacher,” she said. “It was one of those things I found out See TEACHERS on Page 9A

composed by Jeremy Thompson and himself. “They have all the music already learned for the entire show,” Parham added about his Ensemble of 127. “Unlike last year. … Definitely further along at this time this year than they were last year.” The Digital Human “is about our human expression and emotion sometimes being clouded by modern technology or social media, and causing a lot of chaos and confusion in our lives,” Parham said. “But in the end we have to come to the realization that it is the world that we live in, and we have to co-exist See HVA on Page 6A

‘Digital Human’ a first for HVA Despite big challenges, band is ahead of its 2012 pace ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
With a music program entirely original and created for Hardin Valley Academy Outdoor Performance Ensemble — a first for HVA — the 2013 band already is ahead of its 2012 pace despite bigger challenges. “This is the first time we’ve designed our own show, wrote our own music and composed it ourselves, and had it done all in house,” Andrew Parham, HVA director of bands, said in early August about the program “The Digital Human” created and

Beginning in seventh grade, Jennie Cunic started experiencing “the very specific and individualized attention and training” at Knoxville Children’s Theater. Now, as a Farragut High School senior, Cunic said her KCT experience is “one of the big reasons why I’m choosing to go into theater as my profession. “I want to major in theater education, so I want to go back and teach on a high school level,” Cunic added. “Because working at Children’s Theater I see how much of a lack there is in theater education. So by the time kids get to college, if that’s want they want to major in, they have a huge gap in their education.” Cunic, 18, played Aunt Polly in KCT’s “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer,” a 13-performance that started Aug. 16-31, at the theater’s home, 109 Churchwell Ave. in West Knox County. “I think the reason that Aunt Polly is so intriguing I think she gets mis-communicated a lot of the time,” Cunic said. “It’s because she has this undying love for Tom. She wants to see him grow up to be a good, a proper boy, then a man. But she’s not a mother, so she struggles how to communicate that to him. “She’s just very human. She has flaws. So, it’s just a very intriguing and difficult character to play.” Dennis Perkins, KCT resident director and Tom Sawyer director

Seven simple steps to procrastinate successfully Step One: Face the thing you have to do and get very clear with yourself how awful the job is going to be. Make sure you do not WANT to do it and get the feeling that you HAVE to do it. Step Two: Add to the distasteful thought of the task, by remembering how much you h a t e d doing it or a similar job at another time. S t e p Three: To comp l i c a t e Pam matters, Young see if you Make it can actually become Fun! afraid of what you HAVE to do. Think about all the things that have to be done before you can even start do to the job you HAVE to do. Also use your imagination and imagine some terrible thing that could happen if you did do what you’re putting off. Step Four: Think up some excuses why you can’t do the job right now. This will make you temporarily feel better. Step Five: Let your right brain come up with an alternative activity. It will definitely give you something else to do. Something you WANT to do. Step Six: Start doing the alternative activity, while keeping in the back of your mind the job you should be doing. This will help build up fear, guilt and anxiety and will make the job you HAVE to do seem even
worse. It’ll help you strengthen the picture you imagined in step three. Step Seven: Go to bed and think about doing the terrible thing tomorrow and work very hard to fall asleep while your guilt, fear and anxiety cloud your sleep with dark, dismal, gloomy and ominous thoughts. When you follow these seven simple steps, you’ll be able to put off all the things you don’t want to do indefinitely. You’ll be able to be filled with stress, irritability, anger, frustration, guilt and much, much more. You’ll have very little free time for the things you love to do and if you take time to play, the undone task will haunt you. The better you get at procrastination, the more you will be able to add to the list and in no time at all, you’ll be completely buried and overwhelmed. You could even get sick; the best excuse of all! But wait, there’s another side to the procrastination coin. Have you ever given yourself credit for all you get accomplished in the name of procrastination? I had one woman tell me she knows when she starts cleaning out the garage, that it must be near time to file her income tax return. Often we procrastinators will work on something we’ve put off in order to put something else off. If you stop to think about it, you have probably accomplished more by trying to avoid what you don’t want to do. Another thing can happen that’s positive. The very thing you’ve avoided, if left long enough, sometimes will just go away. I had put off painting a wall in our living room and we had a water pipe break in the wall and the whole wall had to be replaced, and the contractor painted it for me.
Lesson
for her to fully recover. “We take for granted how much we drive. We get in the car every day with people we don’t know a whole lot. We forget how easy it is to be in a life or death situation every day … don’t speed. It’s just not worth it,” Krueger added. Drivers will often times think that it is impossible for events like this to happen to them and that they can handle multi tasking while driving their vehicles. Madison Lovelace, 17, knows that it is dangerous to think this way. “I was texting [when I ran off road], so I would say not to text and drive. Really pay attention to what is around you. Do not text and drive or do anything that distracts you,” Lovelace said. Despite the no-text-and-drive law’s fourth birthday just passing, drivers continue thinking they can get away with typing the message and pressing the send button before anything bad happens.

for her curfew. She was trying to get home for her curfew that was 10 minutes away and did not stop to “think and remember being safe is the biggest thing.” The next thing she knew, she was upside down in her car for two hours with EMS and firefighters trying to get her out safely. “Honestly there’s really no way to tell if I was or wasn’t using my phone. If I was, I know for a fact it would’ve been a lot worse or I could be dead,” Kruger said. Krueger was airlifted to UT Medical Center where she stayed in the ICU for three nights, then remaind in the hospital for two additional nights. Her injuries include a broken collar bone on which she had surgery, bruised lungs, internal bleeding in her head, two spinal fractures and a fractured back. The doctors told her it would take about 12 weeks

At KCT, “It’s year round, we do 10 shows a year and we just take a small, little break in the summer,” Cunic said. “Nine straight plays and one musical. Several of those plays we adapt ourselves, so we get the rights to the book or the story.”

It’s got a nice human tone to it. … I like this show better just because the music’s more fun to play. It’s a lit-

HVA hopes to perform its polished version of The Digital Human during its “big competition, Contest of Champions, in Murfreesboro at MTSU” Oct. 26, Parham said.

Anyone within in hearing distance of Farragut High School Saturday morning, Aug. 24, heard the cheers resounding from its gymnasium. That is where more than 40 area youth with Down syndrome took to the court alongside The University of Tennessee men’s and women’s basketball players for the “Hoops for Hope” basketball event. “Hoops for Hope” offers children and young adults with Down syndrome a chance to play basketball with UT players. “It’s a great day for all of us, just to see the smile in these children’s faces when the UT men and women help them on the floor,” said Donald Dodgen, assistant athletic director and physical education and wellness department chairman at Farragut High School. “I look forward to coming here,” said Kristen Estep, one of the participants. Likewise, participant Bobby Repass said he also enjoys it. “You hear so much bad press about college athletes, Dodgen said. “This event is what college athletes are all about. “I’m excited,” Lady Vols player Isabelle Harrison said. “I’m happy the men’s and women’s basketball teams could come and give their support.” “I love it,” said UT men’s basketball player Jarnell Stokes. “I love interacting with the kids.” FHS’ administrators, faculty, cheerleaders, dance team mem-

bers and athletes also took part, joining the UT teams on the court. “Hoops for Hope” is a free event, Dodgen said. The community donated everything, and money raised from a silent auction went to the Down Syndrome Awareness Group of East Tennessee. “Hoops for Hope” is the brainchild of David Sexton, and son, Trey, a Farragut High School graduate. While at FHS, Trey was looking for a way to earn his Boy Scouts’ Eagle Scout award when he came up with “Hoops for Hope” and approached Dodgen. “Trey wanted to give children
with Down syndrome a chance to enjoy a basketball activity with the University of Tennessee basketball players,” Dodgen said. “He asked me to get involved in this and use the Farragut High School gymnasium,” Dodgen added. This year, Trey passed on the torch of “Hoops for Hope” to his younger sister, Allie. Their father continues to help with the tournament. “I love it,” Allie said about organizing the event. “Oh, it’s awesome,” David Sexton, said. “This is one of the happiest days of the year for my family.”

vides protection and assistance to refugees by helping them to start a new life. “We resettle about 200 refugees a year,” Cornwell. “They come from various countries. By definition, they have been persecuted and forced to leave their home.” Bridge’s goal is to help refugees gain self-sufficiency. That includes teaching English, helping them find jobs and getting their children enrolled in school, Cornwell said. “But, they rely on public transportation,” she said. “Mobility is absolutely essential in becoming self-sufficient.” “The critical thing is getting the
job interviews, and when they get that job, to be able to have reliable transportation to that job,” said Leah Berry, a Bridge board member and Farragut Rotarian. So, Cornwell said, Bridge applied for funding through the clubs to meet that need. Funding from the Rotary Foundation comes out of Rotary District 6780, Berry said. “We apply and the district and foundation approves the grant requests. She said there are three requirements the project must meet: • The project must meet a need in the community. • Rotarians must be involved somehow. They have to be active in the process, not just give
money. • The Rotary clubs provide oversight of the grant funds. David Smoak, Town of Farragut administrator and Farragut Rotary Club member is in charge of the oversight of the grant funds, Berry said. There are three parts of the grant project Bridge identifies, Cornwell said. These are: • Provide driving lessons to refugees who can speak English. Berry said Farragut Rotarian Tom Marsh, an instructor with Drive for Life, will be volunteering to provide driving lessons. • Provide car seats to refugee parents. • Provide orientation on using the public bus system.

A lot of students are going to end up getting student loans or
loans for cars, and I think it’s good that they learn when they start out what they’re getting into. Students are flooded with credit card applications as soon as they turn 18, so they need to know what’s out there in the world.” In a Friday, Aug. 23 interview, Beale said she was teaching about taxes currently.

Parents received information from FIS principal Kay Wellons and FIS PTA president Rebecca Bower, along with other speakers, in the cafeteria prior to visiting their child’s homeroom teacher in that teacher’s classroom. Teachers outlined their particular requirements, along with certain school-wide requirements, for each child during the 2013-14 school year.

Parkview marks fifth anniversary ■
ROBBY O’DANIEL rodaniel@farragutpress.com
The Parkview Independent Living LLC location at 10914 Kingston Pike marked its fifth anniversary with a dinner celebration Tuesday, Aug. 13. Karen Spires, operations manager at TJ Development & Management Company LLC, said Parkview Independent Living is one of the company’s developments, and TJ Development owns and manages it. “In 1999, we purchased some property in Fountain City and built our first 27-unit senior apartment building,” Spires said. “Seeing the demand for it, we built a phase two in North Knoxville adjacent to the original building, which opened in 2005. As we progressed, we wanted to move forward with, because it’s a new need and a new niche market, so we built 84 units out west, started construction in 2006 and opened up in 2008.” The business provides studio up to two-bedroom apartments for seniors, she said, as well as off-site activity such as lunch or a matinee movie. “Anything that we can do to help their life in their elder years be easier,” she said. Spires called it “a safe and secure place for seniors.” “Parkview provides a safe place for your aging parents who are still well minded and don’t want the hassle of having to mow

their grass, keep their house,” she said. “We offer housekeeping. We provide two meals a day, transportation if they need it.” Parkview creates social connections, she said. “A community where they can associate with people their own age, make new friends, we have bridge club, exercise class,” she said. “We have a movie theater.” Parkview is not a nursing home, she said. “It is a community within itself
for senior people,” she said. “So it’s a benefit to the seniors and the peace of mind for children of aging parents who have to consider an alternative living for them because either they move in with you or they are living alone, and so they have a community to go to.” Residents are checked in with every day, she said. “It’s a place for people my age with aging parents to know they’re safe and that somebody
can check on them because people my age are working these days,” said Spires, who is 51. One misconception about retirement communities is that people relate them to being for people who are no longer healthy, she said. “This is a full, vibrant, healthy senior community,” she said. “We don’t have hospital beds. They can bring their own furniture and create their own little space.”

Bettye Sisco, Farragut West Knox Chamber of Commerce president and CEO, was named president of the Tennessee Chamber of Commerce Executives at the TCCE Annual Conference, which took place Aug. 21-23 in Memphis. “I’m thrilled to be part of it,” Sisco said. Suzie Lusk, administrator for the Tennessee Chamber of Commerce Executives, said the decision “was voted on by the current board and membership of TCCE.” “We are thrilled,” Lusk said. “We know that her enthusiasm and professionalism will bring a
great year to the Tennessee Chamber of Commerce Executives across the state.” Lusk described the Tennessee Chamber of Commerce Executives. “We were organized to enhance the professional growth and development of chamber executives, staff and volunteers in the state of Tennessee,” she said. The Tennessee Chamber of Commerce Executives have three goals, she said. “We have three: to foster the professional development of chamber of commerce executives and staff, to enhance status of chambers of commerce in the state and nation and to provide a communication link between chambers of commerce staff in
Tennessee,” she said. When Sisco was hired to serve as president of the Farragut West Knox Chamber of Commerce, Sisco said she took the U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s continuing education program at the University of Georgia. “It teaches you how to run a chamber,” she said. “It teaches you ideas. ... It teaches you what chambers are all about and what their purpose is.” The Farragut West Knox Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors supported her in completing the program, she said. After she completed the program, she got involved with the Tennessee Chamber of Commerce Executives, she said. “I continued my education by
going to all of the events involving the Tennessee Chamber [of Commerce Executives] and as a result, I became a member of their board and now it is my turn to take over as president,” Sisco said. “What that means is not only do I serve as president of the Tennessee Chamber of Commerce Executives, but I also will be bringing in approximately 100 to 140 people to the Farragut-West Knox area in August or September of 2014 for a three-day workshop to visit our town, our community and our chamber. And we will have speakers, and we will have time that they can have to enjoy the shopping and the pleasures of the area that we have.”

The Admirals got off to a fast start and had to hang on to earn a 31-24 Admirals 31 victory over Oak Oak Ridge 24 R i d g e before a packed and enthusiastic crowd. The Admirals’ defense got the game’s first score when senior linebacker Ryan Glintenkamp pounced on an errant snap in the end zone. And that wasn’t even the beginning of a long and bizarre first half for the visitors, who opened the game with two bad snaps on their first two plays from scrimmage. It took just 42 seconds for Farragut (1-1) to open a 7-0 lead. Oak Ridge (0-1) answered a short time later when Brandon Nickle hit a 24-yard field goal to

After that, however, the first half belonged to Farragut, which darted to a 24-3 lead by halftime. The Admirals took a 14-3 lead with 5 minutes, 43 seconds left in the opening frame when senior quarterback Bryan Phillips connected with Billy Williams for a 74-yard scoring strike. The drive, which lasted only two plays, opened when Phillips connected with Williams on a modest 6-yard completion. “Our motto this week was start strong and finish stronger,” Williams said. “It [the touchdown pass] was the perfect play. “Bryan just got me the ball and it all came down to us making big plays.” Phillips’ touchdown pass was the first of two quick offensive strikes for the Ads on this night.

But the senior had apparent TD runs of 11 and 13 yards both called back due to holding penalties, while fumbling at the goal line (Karns recovery) en route to another apparent six points. “When you have the opportunity to score four touchdowns and you only get one, it’s tough. Four would have felt good,” Jackson said. “But it’s all for the team.” “I feel like I can carry the load for our team this year.” Jackson was among the Hawks seniors who enjoyed seeing fellow senior Jack DeFur parade See HAWKS on Page 6B

With East Hamilton pulling back extra reinforcements defensively, making it harder for Hardin Valley Academy to score, the Lady Hawks still managed just enough offense. A first-half goal from sophomore Gabriele Powers, banged in from about 15 yards out and assisted by freshman Paige Hewitt, provided a 1-0 win during Bearden Lady Hawks 1 H i g h S c h o o l East Hamilton 0 2013 Girls Soccer Invitational opening round play at Bruce Allender Field Thursday evening, Aug. 29. About the Hewitt-to-Powers goal, “It was beautiful,” said HVA head coach Mike McLean, whose team ended Invitational play with a 5-0-1 record after a 2-1 win against Notre Dame Aug. 30 and a 2-1 victory versus McMinn County Aug. 31. Hewitt “one-touched it to a center-mid making a run, and it was a great one-time finish,” McLean added. “I was about to yell [at Powers, saying] ‘take two touches, be patient,’ but if she scores that’s good. I’ll take it.” About her goal, Powers said, “We’ve been working on one-twos in practice, and I thought that was a good example up putting

the practices in the games. “Paige Hewitt, who is a freshman, played me a good throughball, and I just had a one-touch shot to the [left] corner,” Powers added. About East Hamilton’s defensive approach, “It was a philosophy play, just low pressure,” McLean said. “It’s good for us, it’s something we have to work on if we see it during the rest of the regular season.” Overall, “We were a bit flat,” McLean said. “We could have had a bit more intensity. But I was happy with the way we moved the ball.” In a battle of Hamilton County’s newest high school versus Knox County’s newest high school, Hardin Valley’s defense limited Lady Hurricanes scoring chances. “I think it was a pretty good defensive game,” said Sierra Palmer, HVA junior center defender. “I mean, we’ve had a lot stronger. Farragut was a really good game for us [2-2 tie Aug. 23]. “But, you know, it’s more about just trying to get into the swing of things for the beginning of the season,” Palmer added. “So we’re going off with a really good start.” East Hamilton’s best chance to score came with 17:18 left in the game, when a shot from about 20 yards out in front was headed into

Four games in four days against four powerful girls soccer programs. The final 80 minutes of that grueling stretch for Eric Turner’s Bearden Lady Bulldogs, all during Lady Bulldogs 2 B H S ’s annual Ravenwood 2 Bearden Invitational at Bruce Allender Field, came against an undefeated Ravenwood team having played just once the previous three days. Falling behind the Murfreesboro Class AAA school 2-0 with less than 30 minutes to play, the Lady Bulldogs overcame any level of exhaustion and battled back for a 2-2 tie Saturday morning, Aug. 31. That tie, thanks to goals from junior Ashley Seltzer and sophomore Casey Riemer — with each assisting the other’s goal — allowed Bearden to finish the Invitational 2-1-1, having beaten defending Class A/AA state champ CAK 3-2 Aug. 28 and perennial Class AAA threat Greeneville 3-0 Aug. 30. A 3-1 loss to AAA state power Houston came Aug. 29. Just 21 seconds after Ravenwood (3-0-3) went ahead 2-0 at the 27:27 mark of the second half, Seltzer answered with Riemer’s help. “Casey Riemer took it down the right side of the field and

she played a perfect ball, and I had to stick my leg in there and it went in,” Seltzer said of the shot from about five yards out. Seltzer later fed Riemer, who tied the game after nailing home
a sharp angled attempt on the left from 12 yards out with 10:30 to play. “We work well together,” See BULLDOGS on Page 6B

Irish remain undefeated, CAK drops a heartbreaker ■
KEN LAY Correspondent
It was a night of mixed results on the gridiron for Knoxville Catholic High School and Christian Academy of Knoxville. The Irish remained undefeated with a 47-7 win over Coalfield on the road while the Warriors dropped a heartbreaking 42-41 decision to Powell in a game that wasn’t decided until the waning moments. Catholic (2-0) got a little defensive in its win over the Ye l l o w Catholic 47 Jackets Coalfield 7 Friday night as Dominic Souder and Augustus Fortune each returned an interception for a touchdown. The Irish opened the scoring in the first quarter when Zac Jancek connected with Logan Lacey on a 6-yard scoring pass. Wyatt Price added the extra point that gave KCHS a 7-0 lead. Coalfield knotted the game in the second quarter when Ryan Hill threw a touchdown pass to Zach Wilkins. After that, the Irish defense stifled Coalfield (1-1). Meanwhile, Catholic’s offense
had no problems finding the end zone. The Irish went up 21-7 on a pair of scoring strikes from Jancek. He found Jordan Anderson from 49 yards out and hit Elijah Brown on a 73-yard strike. Souder’s 27-yard interception return gave KCHS the 28-7 lead it enjoyed at halftime. “It was a great atmosphere for football,” Irish head coach Steve Matthews said. “We played better on offense and we had another outstanding game on defense. “We got ahead 21-7 and we forced Warriors 41 them to Powell 42 throw the ball and do some things that they didn’t want to do and our guys made plays.” Catholic’s offense struggled in its 22-13 season-opening win over Notre Dame Aug. 23, but Matthews said he was impressed with his squad’s improvement at Coalfield. “We didn’t have nearly as many penalties and we played much better on offense,” he said. Jancek’s other touchdown pass was a 49-yard effort to Jordan Anderson, who later left the game with a dislocated ankle.

“Jordan had a great game until he got hurt,” Matthews said. “He had a nasty injury and it looks like he’s going to be out for a while. He’s a great kid.” Catholic also got a 31-yard field goal from Price and Jerome Rehmann added a 3-yard scoring plunge. The Irish racked up 389 yards of total offense, including 216 yards through the air. Meanwhile, a missed twopoint conversion spelled defeat for CAK at Warrior Stadium. The loss snapped a six-game winning streak for the two-time defending Class 3A state champions. The Warriors (1-1) trailed 4221 before scoring three times in the fourth quarter. CAK pulled to within 42-41 when John Sharpe connected with Phillip Nichols from eight yards out. CAK head coach Rusty

Bradley opted to go for a twopoint conversion. Sharpe found Whittaker Cunningham in the end zone but Cunningham was ruled out of bounds. “I thought, from where I was standing, that his foot was in,” Bradley said. “But there were people standing between me and the play and the official had a better picture than I did. “We shouldn’t have been in a situation where that one play determined the game. We had some opportunities early and we didn’t take advantage of them.” The Warriors scored first on a 5-yard run from Drew Jost. The Panthers (1-1) then scored 21 unanswered points before Sharpe hooked up with Cunningham on a 55-yard pass to pull the Warriors to within 2114. Powell added a touchdown

before halftime. After the break, Powell extended its lead before Cunningham caught a 46-yard touchdown pass. The Panthers scored again before CAK battled back and had a chance to win. Bradley said he was pleased with his team’s effort. “Powell is a good team and our kids really competed,” Bradley said. “They were excited to play against a big school. “Even after we missed the conversion, we thought we would recover the onsides kick and go down and kick a field goal to win the game.” CAK and Catholic will open District 4-AA play against each other Friday at KCHS’s Blaine Stadium.

around the Pride of Pellissippi golden football traveling trophy after the game, symbolizing a fourth straight year HVA (1-0) has defeated the Beavers (0-2). Hardin Valley overcame Karns’ 90-yard kickoff return for a touchdown to open the game. While the Hawks defense occasionally bent, it only gave up a two-point conversion. “I think the defense did pretty good in general, but we still have some things to work on,” said Durant Richardson, HVA senior defensive lineman. Matt Brewer, Hawks senior defensive end, said his defense “really stepped it up tonight. We proved we could stop any drive when we needed to.” A first quarter of unusual scoring — two safeties for HVA thanks to bad snaps and a pair of two-point conversions, including a two-point catch by HVA’s Joe DeFur on a pass from Chandler Viscardis after a bad extra-point attempt snap — ended 15-8 Hawks. Jackson’s touchdown run and Sam Pendergrast’s 27-yard field goal accounted for the other early scoring. Jack DeFur’s 39yard reception from quarter-

Riemer said, adding about the tying goal, “I was not expecting it to go in. But I was surprised.” About four games in four days, Seltzer said, “Our legs were dead but we knew we had to push through it. … I’m proud of the way everyone worked and pushed through it.” “I thought Casey and Ashley did a great job because I know they’re spent and they’ve been getting a lot of time getting beat up,” coach Turner said. “They’re marked forwards and they’re getting beat up a lot. They did a great job to get those goals for us.

back Nathan White set up Jackson’s TD. Three HVA scoring drives in the second and third quarters inside the Karns 10 were killed by turnovers (one interception and two fumbles) and penalties. “We fumbled three footballs going into the end zone for scores. … We’ve got to work on our ball security down in there,” HVA head coach Wes Jones said. Jack DeFur’s 33-yard catch keyed a 50-yard Hawks TD drive late in the third quarter. Ryan Ferguson scored from 13 yards out on the first play of the fourth quarter. Nick Buckles and Joe Underwood joined Jackson to help fuel a 58-yard scoring drive to ice the issue. The final score came after Underwood’s 1-yard run with 2:21 remaining. Garrett Curtis’ fumble recovery helped kill a KHS drive at the Hawks 31. Jones said HVA defensive coordinator Paul Maynard “had a good gameplan.” “They did a good job tackling folks.” In addition to praising Jackson and White offensively, “Our offensive line, you have to give props to them as a whole,” Jones said.

took the ball at its own 19 with 3:26 left in the frame and scored three plays later when sophomore running back Tanner Thomas rambled 66 yards to the end zone. Thomas, who finished with 187 yards on 18 carries, was starting because Mitch White missed the game due to a foot injury. He wasted little time making an impact. “Tanner got to go today and he’s going to be special,” Phillips said. “Tanner had a great game and we got a couple of lucky breaks.” Farragut extended its lead to 24-3 when Carter Phillipy kicked
a field goal with 9:16 to go in the first half. Oak Ridge, which used three quarterbacks in the contest, began to mount a comeback on its first drive after halftime. Wildcats’ starter Gered Young was pulled in favor of Jordan Dunbar. Both were ineffective. Jaylin Henderson came in and got Oak Ridge back into the game. Under his leadership, the Wildcats’ attack finally came to life. The Wildcats pulled to within 24-10 on their opening possession of the second half. Phillips threw an interception. Oak Ridge scored off the turnover as running back Michael Rowe scored on a 32-yard run with 9:56 left in
the third quarter. Phillips’ 9-yard run gave the Ads a 31-10 lead with just over five minutes left in the third stanza. Oak Ridge scored the next 14 points to pull to within 31-24. Henderson connected with Ted Mitchell from 21 yards out to make it 31-17 and had a 6-yard run midway through the final frame to trim Farragut’s advantage to 31-24. Oak Ridge had a chance to knot things late but that opportunity evaporated when Henderson slipped on the last play of the game. The Ads had to hang on but that didn’t seem to matter after the dust had settled.
“I thought Emily Mayfield did a great job in the middle of the field all week … all four games, all 80 minutes,” Turner added. “And Mallory Denning in the back did a great job. Mallory’s been great all year.” About his team’s daily grind, Turner said, “At this point in the season, it’s not ideal but you learn a lot and you get to try a lot of different players. I’m very happy with the way we finished up.” Down 2-0 Saturday, “We know we didn’t have the legs, but we told them, ‘no excuses’ and they stayed with it,” Turner said. “It’s a very good sign for us that we’re able to battle back on the fourth day in a row.” “A game like that where there’s not much action, you’ve just got to be on your toes at all times; you don’t know when that counterattack can happen,” McLean said about East Hamilton’s almost goal.

FHS's Josie Jennings heads a ball past a Ravenwood defender in action Sunday, Sept. 1, at the Bearden Invitational.
www.farragutpress.com
“We controlled the game but we just couldn’t seem to get any shots off,” Lady Admirals’ head coach Dennis Lindsay said. “We’ve got a bunch of people sick. “Right now, I’m having to rotate too many people and we have too many people playing out of position. I think we’ll come around, but right now we still have a lot of work to do.” Farragut found itself down early as the Lady Raptors (3-0-3) took a 1-0 lead in the 25th minute on a goal by Collen Leryer in a match where quality scoring opportunities were at a premium. Lauren Yeager picked up an assist on the game’s first marker. Leryer scored on Ravenwood’s first shot of the afternoon. The score remained 1-0 until Josie Jennings tallied for the Lady Ads. Jennings was one of several Farragut players who were playing out of position. She has been saddled with a nagging foot injury and saw her first action of the season earlier in the Bearden Invitational. “I’m extremely happy [to be playing],” said Jennings, a defender and a Tennessee Lady Volunteers commitment who played forward last week. “I think I was getting antsy just standing there.” Jennings added that Farragut, which has made the Class AAA State Tournament in each of the last two seasons, was troubled when the Lady Raptors, who also tied Knoxville Catholic and the
host Bulldogs last weekend, scored first. “We came out and were playing really good but I think we panicked after that first goal,” she said. “It took that halftime talk to get us going.” She also noted that illness plagued the Lady Admirals. “We had a lot of girls who were sniffly,” she said. Farragut, which mustered only two shots on frame in Sunday afternoon’s match, certainly didn’t have any trouble scoring against the East Hamilton Lady Hurricanes on Saturday. The Lady Ads nabbed a 6-0 victory in that match. Senior Katie Beuerlein, a Wofford commitment, scored twice and picked up an assist on a goal by Katie Cloud. Cloud also tallied off an assist from Beuerlein. Emma Jeter also had a goal and dished out an assist against the Lady Hurricanes. Junior Kendall Clay also scored twice. Jennings, Grace Sommi and Joanda Parchman all had helpers against East Hamilton. Farragut opened tournament play against Catholic with a 2-0 victory at Blaine Stadium Tuesday, Aug. 28, in a game that featured a pair of 2012 Class AAA State Tournament qualifiers. K.C. Ward and Beuerlein scored goals against the Lady Irish. Parchman had an assist on Beuerlein’s marker. Jennings made her 2013 debut against the Lady Irish at a forward spot and Lindsay said that he was pleased to have her back in the line-up.

Mistakes pile up as Dawgs fall to Fulton ■
ROBBY O’DANIEL rodaniel@farragutpress.com
Fulton recovered a fumble and returned it for a touchdown on Bearden’s opening drive. Fulton never stopped running and beat Bearden 52-0 Friday, Aug. 30 at BHS. In particular, Fulton running back Daryl Rollins ran all night, amassing 200 yards on 11 rushes and three touchdowns. Fulton Bearden 0 ( 2 - 0 ) ended the Fulton 52 g a m e with 400 total net yards, while Bearden (0-2) had 90. “Good football team obviously, very good football team, of course we all knew that coming in,” Bearden head coach Brad Taylor said. “I don’t think that surprised anybody. When you play good football teams, can’t make that many mistakes and you got to be able to make plays yourself, so it is what it is. They’re a good football team. They deserve a lot of credit.” After the game, Taylor looked forward. “Everything’s in front of us at this point,” he said. “We played two very good football teams the first two ballgames of the year. We haven’t had a district game
yet, and we’ll start that next week against Heritage. All our goals are still intact. We’re going to have to play better, and we’re going to have to coach better to make those goals happen.” Fulton head coach Rob Black talked about the speed of his team. “I felt like our guys came out and started fast,” Black said. “It’s two weeks in a row that we’ve done that and built some momentum early in the game, so really good to see that we had a lot of different guys get involved in making plays.” Bearden free safety Blake Ironside said the Fulton team was fast. “They could fly,” he said. “It was really hard. Even on perfect angles, they’re still beating us around the corners.” Ironside had an interception in the second quarter. Bearden quarterback Xavier Johnson called Ironside a good player. “He works hard at practice,” Johnson said. “He’s a big help for us on defense, even though he’s a younger guy. I believe he has a lot of talent. He can do very well at his position.” Johnson looked at the way the team can bounce back after two losses to open the season.

Meanwhile at Farragut, the Admirals (1-1) started fast en route to a 31-24 win over the Wildcats at home. The win avenged a 28-24 loss to Oak Ridge last season. Farragut’s defense scored first when Ryan Glintenkamp pounced on a Wildcat fumble in the end zone. Farragut’s offense scored a pair of first quarter touchdowns when Bryan Phillips threw a 74-yard touchdown pass to Billy Williams and sophomore Tanner Thomas had a 66-yard scoring scamper. The Ads led 24-3 at the half before withstanding a second-half surge from the ‘Cats. Farragut opens District 4-AAA play Friday at Lenoir City.

The chase for farragutpress How the West Was Won presented by 3-Minute Magic Carwash tropphy is now in full swing. Hardin Valley Academy, which had an open date in Week 0, opened its 2013 campaign with a 29-8 victory over Karns Friday night. Farragut picked up its first win over Oak Ridge at Bill Clabo Field. Christian Academy of Knoxville suffered its first loss of the year. Knoxville Catholic High School improved to 2-0 with a road victory over Coalfield while Bearden dropped to 0-2 by losing to Fulton at home. The Hawks (1-0) got one rushing touchdown from Jordan Jackson and HVA’s defense picked up a pair of safeties in the first quarter. The Hawks have now won four consecutive games against the Beavers despite three turnovers inside the Karns 20-yard line. The Beavers and Hawks were one-time District 3-AAA rivals before Hardin Valley moved to District 4-AAA this season. The Hawks host William Blount Friday night. It will be HVA’s first league

Cunningham caught three long touchdown passes from junior quarterback John Sharpe, who threw for nearly 400 yards and five scores. CAK travels to Blaine Stadium to tangle with Catholic in the District 4-AA opener for both schools. The Irish (2-0) defeated Coalfield 47-7 in its first road tilt of the season. Quarterback Zac Jancek threw for 216 yards and had touchdown passes to Jordan Anderson and Logan Lacey. Catholic’s defense also accounted for two scores as Augustus Fortune and Dominic Souder returned interceptions for touchdowns. Catholic, which defeated Notre Dame in Week 0, darted to a 28-7 lead by halftime and never looked back. The Irish host the Warriors Friday in the conference opener for both teams. Catholic and CAK haven’t tangled on the gridiron since 2002. The Irish prevailed 42-7 in that meeting and won 52-15 in 2001. Bearden dropped to 0-2 with a 52-0 home loss to defending Class 4A state champion Fulton. That loss came on

Kitchen “revamp” Fresh face for kitchen is your best investment Do you find yourself dining out or ordering take out more than you do eating in? Can’t get inspired or excited to cook in your dated, b o r i n g kitchen? Does the Holiday entertaining season send you into a cold sweat? Are Submitted by buyers runNatalie ning at top Bogusky, speed from Keller your 1980’s Williams Realty, inspired 865-694-5904 kitchen? Well it’s time to look at a kitchen “revamp”. The kitchen is truly the gathering hub in a home. It’s a place where family memories are created daily. Whether you are
remodeling to sell your home or remodeling to stay put- a fresh face on your kitchen is your best investment. The biggest mistake is spending more on remodeling than your home’s value can support. Generally speaking, you can spend between 6-10% of the total value of your home and expect a return on this investment of approximately 70-85%. Remodeling for re-sale means choosing materials that appeal to the masses. Opt for stainless steel appliances of high quality rather than the professional grade. Spend on functional features like pantry drawers, soft close cabinet doors and drawers. Do not over personalize! You might appreciate pulls at $50 a pop but will your buyers care? Probably not. Keep in mind- Buyers fall in

Kitchen From page 1C
love first with the exterior of a home. If your home is traditional and you put in a contemporary kitchen you have just created a very difficult niche to sell to..a lover of the traditional style but who’s comfortable in a modern, chic styled kitchen…difficult to find that specific buyer.
An upgraded, attractive kitchen can make your home irresistible. Family, friends, and buyers will want to “linger” longer if it is welcoming and up to date…remember to keep it transitional and in keeping with the style of your home. Kitchen’s are costly to re-do but also more likely to pay for themselves down the road…ready set go “revamp”!!
