BOMA opens door to possible apartment complex ■
TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com
As Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen prepared to pass proposed ordinance changes regarding apartments, residents living around Grigsby Chapel Road objected to having another apartment development under consideration in the community. Residents spoke out during the Board meeting Thursday, Sept. 11, in the Town Hall about traffic congestion, threat of overcrowding schools and lowering property values. “I don’t think having more apartments is always a good thing,” Emma Bea Stallings, 425 E. Fox Den Drive resident and a realtor, said. “No one is buying a house at any price range where there are apartments. “It’s going to devalue the property values, and our traffic is going to be greater,” she added. “I don’t think we need to change the ordinance. I don’t think we need apartments. People don’t want our Town to change.” Before residents spoke, Mayor Ralph McGill said, “What we are doing tonight is not approving a plan for apartments — nobody has come to us with a plan for apartments. “What we are doing is amending an ordinance that deals with multi-family, and some of these changes makes it even stricter.” Board members had before them Ordinance 14-11, which
includes new requirements to the Town’s ordinance; Ordinance 14-12, which creates an overlay district for properties with physical limitations, and Ordinance 14-13, which changes some parking and loading requirements for apartment developments. Ultimately, the Board voted unanimously to approve all three proposed ordinances on multifamily zoning on first reading. Mul Wyman, 527 Wyndham Hall Lane, said he did not think the proposed number of units was a compatible land use for the west side of Grigsby Chapel Road. “You are trying to squeeze in 200 units on about 25 acres of approximately 34 acres,” he said. “The density is too high.” He referred to a concept plan by a developer Wyman said he received from another resident. Beth Sells, 680 Chapel Point Drive, said residents she talked to opposed any plans for apartments at Grigsby Chapel Road. She cited the density as well. “It’s too much in too little space,” Sells said. Ross Bradley, vice president of development for TDK Development, said TDK was working on a request for rezoning to R-6 and plans to go before Farragut Municipal Planning Commission with that rezoning request. He has scheduled a meeting at 7 p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 24, in Town Hall to meet with residents and discuss those plans. Bradley said the property is

across from Wyndham Hall Subdivision. “The whole site is 32 acres,” he said, adding TDK is looking at developing 240 to 250 units on the whole track. Bradley said the apartments would be high-end with rents starting at $900. He added TDK is looking at traffic and density and realize they are issues for residents. He also said the development would have a 90-foot set-

Thanks to “the wife” of a Farragut West Knox Chamber of Commerce member a few years ago, Dr. Bill Bass began his longrunning series of gripping presentations in front of FWKCC. This world-renown forensic anthropologist and head of The University of Tennessee’s Anthropology Research Facility, also known worldwide as The Body Farm, once again will speak in front of what is anticipated to be yet another packed FWKCC audience. “Apparently he’s extremely popular because we’re booked to solid capacity,” Bettye Sisco, FWKCC president/CEO, said. “… Sometimes he brings bones.” Bass is scheduled to make his latest appearance during FWKCC Breakfast Speaker Series starting at 7:30 a.m., Tuesday, Sept. 30, in Fox Den Country Club. The subject is scheduled to be “Cremains,” which is all about cremation, Sisco said. “The first time Dr. Bass came, one of our Chamber members knew his wife and talked to his wife and asked her if he’d be interested and he was,” Sisco added. “I had no idea he would
be so interesting. I knew about the Body Farm, but having not lived here all of my life I certainly didn’t know that much about it. And so I was very, very pleased.” Examples of his stories include “the Big Bopper and the [1959] plane crash that was extremely interesting,” Sisco said. “He’s extremely humorous.” “I think one of the things that was most interesting to me then, and continues to be, is if any of his former students are there it’s like they’re in there in class, completely listening and engaged with whatever he’s saying,” Sisco added. “And they can’t wait to speak to him at the end. “Not only is he an incredibly smart man, an educated man, but he is well-loved by his students and friends alike. … He takes the time for people who respect him.” Looking back on his appearances, “Probably the first two or three times Dr. Bass came, he came alone and used slides and told us different stories. Different things that had happened, different cases that he had been on,” Sisco said about a man “who has authored or co-authored more than 200 scientific publications as well as his critically acclaimed memoir about his
career at The Body Farm. “And then he began writing books with Jon Jefferson. It just so happened that he scheduled us to be the first group to speak to on the days the book was going to come out,” she added about Bass, also honored as National Professor of the Year by National Council For Advancement and Support of Education. “The last few times that’s when he’s come: on the day that his [newest] book is coming out. He’d talk about the book, and Jon Jefferson would come along. “They’d talk more about the book than they would his studies and his work. Jon Jefferson is the storywriter and Dr. Bass is the educator. … They write together as Jefferson Bass.”
back, compared to the Town’s requirement of a 35-foot setback. “We are trying to do the right thing with the neighbors,” he added. Besides the density, Wyman said he did not think Grigsby Chapel Road had the infrastructure to accommodate people from another apartment complex. “[Grigsby Chapel] was not designed and it was not built to
be an arterial street,” he said. Ann Ballard, 11627 Autumn Glen Lane, said she also is concerned about the arterial flow of traffic if apartments are built. “I presume that was the original plan was in putting apartments near Dixie Lee Junction and Watt Road,” Ballard said, then asked if the Town had ideas in mind of where else apartSee APARTMENT on Page 4A
SERC discusses Town/high school apprentice program
■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
As an apprentice-type learning experience building toward a career in politics or civic leadership, would students at Farragut High School or Hardin Valley Academy take advantage of “shadowing” town of Farragut employees, office holders or committee members? A new member of Farragut Schools Education Relations Committee, herself a former FHS Parent Teacher Student Organization president, thinks the answer is yes. “Would it be feasible for any of the community groups at Farragut High School to be in charge of an activity?” Lee Wickman, SERC member, asked during the committee’s latest meeting Tuesday afternoon, Sept, 2, in Town Hall. For example, “They would love to do [Freaky Friday] in the Park, that would be just so right up their alley,” Wickman added. “I guarantee you these kids could handle it, and they would enjoy it. “Anything you need a volunteer for, I think they can probably handle it,” Wickman added. “… You talk about resources, they all need volunteer hours.” Later in the meeting, Wickman emphasized the “apprentice” program should have “something
with some meat in it” to avoid boredom. “There’s nothing that a teenager hates worse than feeling like their time is wasted. … It has to be meaningful work.” Attempting to clarify SERC’s mission, as defined by Board of Mayor and Aldermen, in creating a Town apprenticeship link with local high school students was Gary Palmer, Town assistant administrator. “From the conversations I’ve had with David Smoak, the Town manager, coming from the Board, they’re wanting this committee to take it and run with it and come back to the Board with a recommendation for elements of the program,” Palmer said. “A framework.” “I believe the link that they’re looking to establish with this committee is to the schools to try to increase a relationship with this program to involve the youth more in the town of Farragut.” Palmer said about giving students “responsibilities” within one of the Town’s committees, “I think that would be very beneficial. I don’t know if we have the ability to do that.” Carla Werner, committee member, said FHS “has some kind of program now” with Farragut West Knox Chamber of Commerce. “There’s a student from Farragut that works at the Farragut Chamber periodically.”

Farragut football, community mourn loss of Sterling ■ ALAN SLOAN
asloan@farragutpress.com
Andre Sterling, a former Farragut High School student/athlete whose rushing skills with the Admirals varsity football team earned him a Southeastern Conference scholarship, was killed in a singlevehicle crash early Wednesday morning, Sept. 10. Sterling, an employee at Lakeside Tavern in Concord, was 24. “At approximately 1:11 a.m. officers responded to a singlevehicle crash on the ramp from west I-140 to east I-40. When officers arrived on the scene they discovered a single vehicle off the roadway. The male driver of the 2001 Acura had been ejected and was pronounced deceased on the scene,” Darrell DeBusk, Knoxville Police Department Public Information officer, stated in a press release. “It appears speed and alcohol were factors in the crash. …,” DeBusk’s report added. “The initial investigation by the KPD Fatal Accident Investigation Unit indicates a 2001 Acura was traveling on the ramp from I-140 to I-40 at a high rate of speed. The left tires of the vehicle went off the pavement causing the driver to overcorrect. The vehicle then went off the right side of the road, down an embank-
ment and flipped several times. “The driver was not wearing a seatbelt and was ejected from the vehicle.” Eddie Courtney, FHS varsity football head coach, said about Sterling, “Not only was he a great football player, but just a tremendous young man. It’s such a tragedy for his family and our football program and everybody that knew Andre that he would pass away certainly at a young age.” An All-state running back, Sterling ended his Admirals career with 5,989 yards rushing and 72 touchdowns in four seasons — 2,784 of those his senior season that included 29 touchdowns. “He’s certainly one of the best we’ve had in the 30 years I’ve been here,” Courtney said. “The thing about him, he was a very physical, tough running back that always got positive yards after contact. And his ability to hold onto the football; he didn’t have many fumbles in his career. “He was always, during a game, saying to me, ‘Coach, what else can I do?’” Courtney added. “If we needed a first down or we needed a touchdown, he’d always say, ‘Coach, don’t worry, I’m going to get it done.’ Most of the time he did.” The 5-foot-10, 200-pound Sterling originally signed with the University of Mississippi Feb. 6, 2008, with his immediate
family and FHS coaches part of the ceremony. Sterling’s career at Ole Miss, however, never got off the ground after being indefinitely suspended from the Rebels team. He was charged with driving under the influence and driving the wrong way on a oneway street in Oxford, Miss., Feb. 28, 2009, then Oxford Police Department Sgt. Terry Hawkins said. “I hope that people will not judge Andre based on the way of his death,” Courtney said. “I know that Andre had been working through some personal issues, and I know his parents, Linda and Jack, have been supporting him fully through these things. “All of us realize that we have relatives where we need to be there and support and trust them through difficulty,” Courtney added. “I hope that people will remember Andre like we remember him: as a fine young man and a gifted athlete.” Sterling began his college career at Hargrave Military Academy (Va.), where he played his freshman season in fall 2008 before heading to Oxford.

guestview: Citizen health Tennessee is one of the best states in the country to live, work and to raise a family, but one area where we fall short is the health of our citizens. Tennessee is consistently one of the bottom 10 states when it comes to health rankings. Nearly one-third of our citizens get no physical exercise on a regular basis. Thirtyfour percent of Te n n e s seans are classified Bill as overw e i g h t . Haslam One in Tennessee f o u r Governor Te n n e s s e a n s smokes, and one in five high school students smokes. Altogether, our health problems cost us more than $6 billion every year. One of the most troubling facts is that children in Tennessee now have a shorter life expectancy than their parents. These are all things we have to change. The good news is that we can make significant improvement with some simple approaches. Last year, we announced a program called Healthier Tennessee and established the Governor’s Foundation for Health and Wellness to work with communities across the state to move the needle on healthier outcomes for Tennesseans. A lot of great work has been done through the foundation in working with local businesses, community organizations, and citizens. Just last month, the foundation announced that 73 businesses and institutions across Tennessee have been named Healthier Tennessee Workplaces. Those workplaces are the first to receive awards in a program that recognizes organizations that encourage and enable employees to live healthier lifestyles. The winners
ranged from automobile manufacturers to local governments. The workplaces have all certified that they do the following: • Encourage and enable physical activity • Offer healthy eating options at work • Provide a tobacco-free environment • Encourage and enable employees to monitor their health through risk assessments • Reward and recognize employees for participating Businesses that would like to become recognized in the future for promoting healthier lifestyles among their employees can apply at www.healthiertn.com/workplace. In state government, we have a program called Working for a Healthier Tennessee, where the idea is for state employees to not only get healthier but to set an example for other Tennesseans. State employees, working with wellness councils, have been involved in various good-natured competitions in an effort to improve health. That effort is ongoing. Earlier this year, the Foundation for Health and Wellness launched an online workplace wellness toolkit called Small Starts @ Work to help employers implement wellness programs. The toolkit, available at www.healthiertn.com, provides employers with tips and ideas on how to help employees get healthier together. The Governor’s Foundation on Health and Wellness has other promising programs to announce in the near future, including activities for students. They are doing great work, and I am grateful for their continued innovation and efforts. We all have a role to play in improving the health of our state. Good health applies at home, at play, and at work. We need a culture of wellness in Tennessee if we are truly to be a great state. We can all benefit from a healthy Tennessee.

It’s anybody’s guess how tragic that might turn out. • I’d like to give a big shout out to local businesses who support out local schools. Especially [those] that support our lady soccer team by providing lunches for the girls. With so much negativity going on, I though it was nice to say, thank you, for doing something positive for our community. • When did the turn lanes in the middle of the road become accelerating lanes? I don’t know how many times I’ve been almost hit head-on by cars zooming down the turn lane with the driver looking backwards to see if they can merge into traffic and don’t even see me sitting there to turn. Then there are the vehicles preventing me from getting into the turn lane by racing beside me to merge into traffic. The turn lane is supposed to be a turn lane, not an accelerating lane. • Once again today, Saturday, Sept. 13, I was driving westbound on Turkey Creek Road and had to slow as I met two eastbound vehicles in my lane pass-
ing a bicycle riding right in the middle of the eastbound lane. The second vehicle must have said something or honked at the bicycle because the rider [made an obscene gesture] as the car went by. Do we have to wait until someone is hurt or killed before Farragut bans bicycles on Turkey Creek, Virtue Road and any other main roads (is that even legal?). By the way, there are sidewalks almost all the way down Turkey Creek. Any other vehicle without a license plate (tricycle, motorized lawn mower or even a person walking) going down the middle of those same roads would be ticketed or arrested. • This is for the family that was so obnoxious in [a Turkey Creek Mexican restaurant] on Thursday night, Sept. 11. After you left, every single waitress came over and thanked me for saying something to you about your loud, rude and obnoxious children and then they thanked me for not saying anything to you after you were rude enough to come by and start making smart remarks to me. People don’t appreciate you or your children. Please keep your monkeys at home until they’ve learned how to behave in public … and you too.

arterial as well. “I’m wondering if you had considered putting something in that would restrict the number of apartment [complexes] in a future area so that there aren’t so many,” Pauline Hamilton, 608 Farragut Commons, said. “All that kind of information and review would come in the review for an individual zoning request,” Shipley said. “That’s part of why zoning map has to grow through a rigorous process in the Town.” Smithfield resident Howard Primer, who owns rental property,
said he thinks multi-family residents have been a significant part of the housing stock in America. “The biases [concerning apartments] do not exist, especially high-end apartments,” he said. A couple of residents commented proposed rezoning for apartments could be “slipped by” them. At that, Alderman Ron Honken said he resented the accusation, which he felt was inappropriate. Honken added he has seen no plans for apartments. McGill challenged residents to find a municipality that was more transparent than Farragut.

• Well, considering future Town themes and ideas, could the Board [of Mayor and Aldermen] consider the Russell House be renovated into the Campbell Station Inn? If a simple, modern kitchen were added on and some improvements made with old type furnishing and decorations and costumes of the period were used, I bet Farragut could end up with a destination restaurant. I know I made a point of going to the taverns and the inns when I was in Williamsburg and historical Philadelphia. Just an idea. • In response to a letter to the editor last week, it’s true that Kingsgate Road and Midhurst Road have a huge problem. Trash bins, mailboxes, driveways, flowers and plants have been set on fire. Even when damage has been significant, insurance claims been made, the [Knox County] Sheriff’s [Office] does not let you file a report. They don’t seem to have any interest or concern with this problem. I believe this individual’s actions are indeed escalating. When they set fires to our property it could very easily go so wrong, a bit of wind could cause a house to burn down or lives could be lost. It’s very scary and very unsafe. Neighbors, please lock

Swift Falcons make short work of Ads ■
KEN LAY Correspondent
Farragut High School’s football team became Fulton’s latest victim Friday night. The Falcons, who ventured away from Bob Black Field for the first time in 2014, handed the Admirals a 550 loss that spoiled homecoming for FHS. T h e Falcons 55 Ads (1-3) may have Admirals 0 ended up on the short end of a lopsided decision, but Farragut could take solace in the fact that it held the two-time defending Class 4A state champions to a season low in points. Trouble was, the Admirals committed four turnovers and couldn’t sustain any offensive momentum. “They were a very athletic team,” Farragut head coach Eddie Courtney said. “We gave up three touchdowns early on some busted coverages. “I’m disappointed because I thought we would come back and make it respectable in the second half.” Fulton (4-0) took the opening kickoff and marched 79 yards on eight plays. The Falcons took a 7-
0 lead when quarterback Adam Diggs hit Kentel Williams with a 47-yard scoring strike with 9 minutes, 53 seconds left in the first quarter. The Falcons took a 14-0 lead later in the frame when Diggs, Fulton’s senior quarterback, threw his second touchdown pass. This one went to Domonique Williams and covered 30 yards. It culminated a 5play 58-yard drive. Diggs went 17-for-25 and amassed 259 yards and tossed for four scores. All, however, wasn’t rosy for the visitors. Fulton was flagged for 87 yards in penalties and had a touchdown negated by an infraction. “I told my guys after the game that I was proud of their effort,” Falcons head coach Robbie Black said. “We still have a lot of things to work on. “One of those things is discipline when you have that many penalties.” Fulton, which held a 14-0 lead after the opening stanza, scored 20 second-quarter points to open a 34-0 lead by halftime. Diggs had a pair of touchdown passes in the frame and Zach Winston had a 30-yard scoring scamper to give the Falcons a 28-0 lead mid-

Hardin Valley mistakes in execution — turnovers, short punts and kick returns — gave SouthDoyle short fields from which to score lots of points. Given that the Cherokees are talented, experienced and fast, such gifts were fatal. The Hawks' home opener fell flat in a 47-21 loss Friday evening, Sept. 12. “You Cherokees 47 take a top-10 Hawks 21 team in the state and you put them on the [HVA] 35-yard-line, or inside, like we did tonight, they're going to score a consistent amount of the time,” said Hawks head coach Wes Jones, whose team falls to 2-1. South-Doyle improves to 3-0. “They scored every single time that they had the ball down there. That's four scores and that's pretty much the difference in the ballgame tonight, that we put those guys in positions,” Jones added. “That's taking nothing away from that football team right there. That's a good football team.” Hardin Valley actually outgained South-Doyle in total yards 348-341 according to HVA official statistics. While the Hawks led in passing yards 120 versus 91, the Cherokees led in rushing yards 250 versus 228. One key element in those 91 yards was South-Doyle senior quarterback Brody Rollins, who completed a series of key thirdand fourth-down passes (11 of 13 overall) to keep alive eventual scoring drives.

Jocquez Bruce, SDHS senior star running back/defensive back who produced the biggest chunk of that 250 in rushing, scored on runs of 18 and 20 yards. He also passed, from a direct snap, 16 yards to Dylan Cameron for South-Doyle's first touchdown. A nice leaping catch by Hawks sophomore receiver Carter White turned into a 20-yard touchdown pass from senior quarterback Nathan White, tying the score 7-7 early in the second quarter. Another HVA offensive high-
light came in the closing seconds of the first half while trailing 217. Junior running back Issiah Aguero took a dump off pass on the right side from Nathan White and, after breaking a couple of tackles and cutting toward the middle of the field, scored from 10 yards out with 27 seconds left. Trailing 35-14 early in the fourth quarter, the Hawks tried to rally. Aguero (six carries, 50 yards) scored from a yard out, capping a 80-yard drive highlighted by Aguero's 23-yard run.
Though recovering an onside kick, the Hawks lost the ball on downs. “We came out flat, you know, and we didn't play as well as we should have. And it showed,” said senior running back/linebacker Ryan Ferguson, who put the Hawks ground game on his shoulders with 160 yards on 22 carries. Tyler Lingerfelt led HVA in receiving ( three catches, 43 yards. Dominique Amos, Hawks junior free safety, led his team in total tackles with 14.

Lady Admirals roll past South-Doyle, Grace, Karns KEN LAY Correspondent
It was a long night Monday for the Farragut High School volleyball team, but it wasn’t any longer than it had to be. The Lady Admirals made short work of three opponents in Lynn E. Sexton Gymnasium. FHS downed South-Doyle, Grace Christian Academy and Karns in straight sets. The Lady Ads (35-1 after the wins) opened the potential marathon evening with a 25-7, 25-19 victory over the Lady Cherokees. Farragut then knocked off the Lady Rams 25-13, 25-7 before defeating the Lady Beavers 25-14, 25-9. “Our plan for the night was to get things done as quickly as possible and I’m happy with the way we responded,” FHS senior Raegan Grooms said. The Lady Admirals certainly accomplished that goal as all three matches were concluded in less than an hour. Furthermore, Farragut got production from several players on this night. The Lady Admirals’ front row was particularly dominant in all three matches. “It’s kind of fun,” Farragut head coach Susan Davidson said. “Our front row did a good job. “All three of these teams were scrappy. Karns is in our region and this is the first time we’ve seen them this year. We saw some good matches tonight. These teams just don’t quit.” Karns, Grace and South-Doyle may have all put up valiant efforts. None of those teams, however, could find an answer for Farragut’s balanced attack. “We have so many weapons and we find the other teams’ weakness and that determines who steps up for us,” senior setter Emma Milstead said. “You couldn’t ask for a better team.
This was new for us. We’ve never played three matches during the week. We’ve only done this in a tournament. I’m proud of the way we responded.” After handling the Lady Cherokees and Lady Rams in short order, the Lady Ads then played the Lady Beavers, the defending District 3-AAA champions. Farragut swept Karns in the 2013 Lady Admirals 2 Region 2Lady Cherokees 0 AAA Tournament en route to claiming the Region title. Monday’s outcome was much the same as last year’s postseason meeting. The Lady Ads got off to a blazing start in the first set and opened a 10-5 lead on a service ace by sophomore Alexis Parker. The Lady Beavers, however, would respond by scoring the next three points. Karns pulled to within 10-8 when Abby Spradlin scored two points (including an ace) after a sideout. Karns, which had an early 2-1 lead, would never lead after Parker’s initial service surge. The Lady Beavers pulled to within 1110 before a big run expanded the Lady Ads’ advantage to 14-10. Farragut took the four-point lead on an ace by setter Mikaela Brock. “Mikaela Brock did a great job
for us tonight,” Davidson said. “We’re blessed to have three great setters in Emma, Mikaela and Tia [Madden]. “I’m really proud of these girls. They work hard in the offseason and they don’t mind getting in the hot gym and working.” Davidson couldn’t find enough accolades for her team, which has made a habit of playing short matches this season. “This is a special team but we still have a lot of work to do,” she said. Milstead scored 17 points on the night and Madden set the tone in the second set against the Lady Beavers. She helped Farragut all but polish off the Lady Beavers. She had nine points in the match. The Lady Ads took a 1-0 lead on a side-out before Madden served up the next four points to make it 5-0. She had three aces on the run before Karns called timeout. The Lady Beavers pulled to within 5-1 before Grooms scored three points after the Lady Ads regained possession. From there, Farragut would cruise to its third lopsided win of the night. “We all know each other and we trust each other,” Parker said. “We’re all working hard.” Parker finished with nine kills. Anne Abernathy had four blocks. Brock had 19 assists while Natalie Hartman recorded three blocks against Karns.

Wake-up call has Farragut boys golf back on track Dalton wins 4-AAA crown; Lady Ads 2nd behind Boling
■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
Since they were read the riot act by head coach Jonathan Cox after a loss to Maryville at Green Meadow County Club Aug. 7 — the first Farragut High School boys golf district loss in a regular season match in five years — an experienced and talented FHS team has sharpened its game. “I was not real happy with our focus, we had sort of been going through the motions,” said Cox, whose team’s new “focus” paid off during the District 4-AAA Tournament at Lambert Acres just outside of Maryville Monday, Sept. 15. The Admirals shot a 3under par 285 (four top scores for 18 holes) to easily win by 14 strokes. Meanwhile, the Lady Admirals, who Cox said have been on top of their game most of the regular season while being led by a stellar season from senior Elizabeth Keeling, took second place — two strokes behind champion Heritage. Though FHS senior Kayland Boling shot a sizzling 2-under par 34 on the back nine at Lambert Acres Monday, “which is the best nine holes she’s played in her high school career” according to Cox, she lost in a sudden death playoff to Trista Holder of Heritage. (More on the FHS girls later in the story). Finishing as Class AAA state runner-up two of the past three seasons, Farragut returns its top four players from 2013: seniors Mark Dalton, who shot a 5-under par 67 to win individual district tournament honors Monday, and Connor McKay, defending
Region 2-AAA individual champ, along with juniors Chip Thomas and Tyler Johnson. “Johnson has the best stroke average on the year,” Cox said. However, “When your kids hear how good they’re supposed to be, sometimes we loose focus as coaches and as players,” Cox said. After that Maryville loss Aug. 7, “We went back and had practice that night at Fox Den [Country Club] until we couldn’t see, and it really changed our mentality for the rest of the season,” Cox said. “It changed our focus on just getting better every day instead of worrying about the region and state tournament.” As for Monday’s 4-AAA tourney effort, “That’s pretty good, we’ll take it,” Cox said about Dalton, also 2012 Region 2-AAA champ as a sophomore, and his boys overall team performance. A signature regular season performance came Aug. 22-23 at The Honors Course in Ooltewah against private school powers Baylor and McCallie. In five oneon-one matches against each team over that two-day span, the
FHS boys won nine of 10. On the girls side, “They had a great season,” Cox said about a team whose top two players, Keeling and Boling, have led Farragut to three straight region championships. Keeling, who Cox said was his best player during the regular season, “Came in third at the Baylor Preview, which is one of the best high school golf tournaments in the state,” he added. “She led us this year with a 38 stroke average [nine holes].” Boling, who won the region championship at Lambert Acres her freshman season, shot a 74 — rebounding well after “getting off to a bad start,” Cox said. “At the turn she asked, ‘How do we stand?’ And I said, ‘You need to finish strong and play the best nine holes you’ve played this season.’ … She stepped up to the challenge.” Holder “made a 25-foot birdie putt” on the first playoff hole to beat Boling, Cox said. Keeling shot a 78 Monday. “Rachael McMahan has done a good job of stepping up and playing well in that No. 3 hole,” Cox

few times. He’s got some wiggle to him.” For his part, Thomas said that Fulton was extremely quick. “That was one of the fastest teams that I’ve ever seen,” he said. “They executed and we executed too, but tonight they were the deeper team.” Thomas was one of the few bright spots for the Ads on this night. He accounted for most of Farragut’s total offense. The Admirals mustered only 165 yards in the contest. Thomas also lost a fumble but he continues to impress his coach. “Tanner always runs hard,” Courtney said. “He’s had a couple of turnovers over the past couple of weeks. “But everybody knows who he is and those [turnovers] are a product of his effort to get extra yards.” Fulton got its lone score of the third stanza on an 82-yard touchdown run by Kentel Williams. D’ontay Tate and Chaton Mobley had fourth-quarter touchdown runs for the Falcons. Farragut must have a short memory. The Admirals play host to West High Friday night, Sept. 1, at Bill Clabo Field. The Rebels, Class 5A state runners-up last season, enter the game with a 3-1 overall record, 1-1 in district. “If this doesn’t bother you then you’re not connected to the team,” said Farragut senior defensive back Derek Williams, who intercept a pass from Diggs early in the contest. “This was a tough loss and we need to come together because each game is [now] a district game.” Despite its 1-3 overall record, Farragut remains perfect in district play (1-0) and, with a win
“We had played the two days previous, and Houston hadn’t played since Wednesday. We had dead legs,” Lindsay said. Junior midfielder Jordan Fierley scored for Farragut, which also lost to Evangelical Christian School, 2-1, Friday, Sept. 12 (Hunt goal). “The first night I thought we played terrible,” Lindsay said. Both Bearden losses were the result of goals in the final minutes, a 2-1 setback Friday versus Briarcrest and a 3-2 defeat against Collierville on the Lady Dragons’ home field Sunday. The Lady Bulldogs (4-4-1 entering the week) defeated St. Agnes 3-2 Saturday behind two goals from junior forward Casey Riemer and one from senior forward Ashley Seltzer. Seltzer scored a goal in all three games and added assists on goals by Riemer and Sydney Gambooza, who tallied against Collierville. “She’s a heck of a player, very determined,” Radcliffe said about Seltzer.

Dawgs’ struggles continue, fall at Morristown East ■
KEN LAY Correspondent
MORRISTOWN — Bearden High School’s football team put up one of its best offensive efforts of the 2014 season Friday night, Sept. 12, against Morristown East and that was the good news for the Bulldogs. The bad news was that Bearden made it into the end zone only once in a 37-11 loss to the Hurricanes. “We moved the ball but we just couldn’t score,” Bearden head coach Morgan Shinlever said after watching his squad pile up 249 yards of offense against the
Hurricanes. “We just couldn’t get into the end zone. “We’re moving the ball but we just can’t carry things out. We can’t finish drives. We need to execute Hurricanes 37 and finish drives.” Bulldogs 11 For the second consecutive week, the Bulldogs (0-4) took an early lead when its defense scored a safety. But the Hurricanes managed to take the lead a short time later when Chris Logan gave the home team a 3-2 lead with a 27-yard field goal. And that was only the beginning for Logan and the
Hurricanes (2-2). In addition to his field goal, Logan had four touchdown runs and an 89-yard kickoff return for a score. The senior running back and kicker also kicked a pair of extra points. Logan accounted for all of Morristown East’s scoring in the first 24 minutes. He extended the Hurricanes’ advantage to 10-2 in the second quarter on a 1-yard plunge then adding the PAT. Shinlever had to be pleased with the fact that his young team was embroiled in a tight game at the break. “The defense played pretty well,” he said. “We had about 250 yards of offense and held them to
about 160, I think.” Morristown East, which exploded for 27 points in the third quarter, actually amassed 191 yards of offense in the game. The Hurricanes took control of the contest on Logan’s scoring kickoff return. He added three touchdown runs in the frame from 27, 18 and 27 yards respectively. And when the dust had settled, the Hurricanes blew past the Bulldogs and opened a 37-2 lead. The Bulldogs finally reached the end zone when freshman quarterback Dawson Houser rumbled 67 yards on a keeper later in the game. Bearden’s top standout was
junior wide receiver Jamal Ashley, who finished the game with 198 all-purpose yards. He had 80 receiving yards on the night. He also rushed for a yard and was a force in the return game (117 yards) with 110 kickoff return yards. Bulldogs punter John Matthew Lee punted four times and had a 33-yarder that pinned Morristown East on its 9-yard line. Bearden will return to District 4-AAA play Friday night, Sept. 19, when it travels to Lenoir City to face the Panthers. LCHS (1-2 overall, 0-1 in the district) routed Sequoyah 43-13 on the road last Friday.

And then there was one. One unbeaten team remains in the 2014 farragutpress How the West was Won contest presented by 3 Minute Magic Carwash. Knoxville Catholic High School, the 2013 champion, is the only team that remained undefeated after the fourth week of high school football in East Tennessee. The Irish (3-0) had an open date last week. Catholic hosts Chattanooga Tyner Friday night at Blaine Stadium. The Rams dropped a 35-0 decision to Ooltewah in Week 3. Four teams were in action last week and all four dropped non-district games. Hardin Valley saw its quest for perfection end Friday night in a 47-21 home loss to South-Doyle. Farragut lost its homecoming game to Fulton 55-0. Bearden, despite having an early 2-0 lead for the second consecutive week; fell at Morristown East 37-11. Meanwhile, Christian
Academy of Knoxville lost to Webb 31-21. It was the second straight loss for the Warriors, who opened the season with two impressive wins over Franklin Road Academy and Powell. Hardin Valley (2-1) suffered its first setback of the season against the Cherokees. Quarterback Nathan White threw two touchdown passes in the game. He tossed a 20-yarder to Carter White and had another score from 10 yards out to Issiah Aguero. Aguero scored the Hawks’ other TD on a 1-yard plunge. That, however, wasn’t enough to beat the Cherokees (3-0). South Doyle got two rushing touchdowns from both Malik Lundy and Jocquez Bruce en route to victory. Cherokees quarterback Brody Rollins accounted for three scores. He also had a pair of touchdowns and threw a 16-yard scoring strike to Dylan Cameron that opened the scoring.

State Champion Maryville. The Red Rebels were idle last week. Maryville enters Friday’s game with an 18game winning streak. Meanwhile, Farragut became the latest victim for Fulton at Bill Clabo Field. The Falcons (4-0) raced to a 34-0 halftime lead thanks largely to four touchdown passes by senior field general Adam Diggs. Diggs completed 17-of-25 pass attempts for 259 yards. Kentel Williams caught two touchdowns and ran for another as the two-time defending Class 4A State Champions were held to a season-low 55 points. Tanner Thomas provided most of the offense for the Admirals (1-3), who committed four turnovers. The junior had 136 yards on 22 carries. Defensively for Farragut, Derek Williams had an interception that halted a Fulton drive. The Ads will conclude a three-game homestand this week when they take on Class 5A State runner-up West High. The Rebels
improved to 2-1 with a 34-14 win over Asheville (NC) in their last outing. Meanwhile, the Bulldogs traveled to Hamblen County and left Morristown East with a 37-11 loss. Bearden (0-4) proved it could move the ball against the Hurricanes Friday night. The Bulldogs, who took a 2-0 lead with an early safety, finally reached the end zone when freshman quarterback Dawson Houser rumbled for a 67-yard touchdown on a fourth-quarter keeper. Bearden’s defense added another safety in the final stanza and held Morristown East to 191 yards of total offense. Bearden racked up 249 yards of offense in the loss. Chris Logan was a oneman wrecking crew for the Hurricanes. He kicked a field goal and two extra points and had four touchdown runs. He also returned a kickoff for an 89-yard touchdown. Bearden travels to Lenoir City Friday for a district showdown. The Panthers (1-2) beat Sequoyah 43-13 in Week 3.

CAK sophomore quarterback Cole Smith completed 30-of-43 passes in the game. He amassed 341 yards through the air but failed to throw a touchdown pass. He lofted a pair of interceptions, which were both picked off by Webb’s Brant Mitchell. The Warriors (2-2) scored
all three of its touchdowns on the ground despite an anemic rushing attack that netted just five yards on 14 carries. Michael Thompson scored twice and Smith added a touchdown run. Christopher Stephens of Webb gashed CAK’s defense. He carried 10 times for 102 yards and had a TD. CAK travels to Scott County for a District 4-AA game this week. The Highlanders (4-0) routed Wartburg Central 47-8 on Sept. 12

Judy Hobbs was a neonatal nurse in a hospital intensive care unit when she decided to take a detour and open The Adorable Child, 11416 Kingston Pike, in Farragut, with husband, Brad Hobbs. “I’ve always loved children — I’ve always worked in a children’s hospital — but I had a passion for children’s clothes and I was burned out on nursing,” Judy Hobbs said. She said she always wanted to open a children’s boutique, so when Judy Hobbs started thinking about leaving nursing, she and Brad, both Farragut residents for 20 years, opened The Adorable Child eight years ago. “I love it. I love people,” Judy Hobbs said. “Having a small business, we have customers who have become like family. You know their names and the things going on in their lives, so I have made a lot of good friends that way through this business. “It’s kind of a ministry to me, too,” she added. “Whether it’s our customers who have cancer or have someone in their family dying, we will pray for them or send them cards.” Judy Hobbs said the store allows her to do such ministry as donating to orphanages in other countries or to Angelic or Fountain City ministries and doing mission-type work. She said the business has

expanded in two ways — space and its merchandise. “We’ve taken up more space in the store for sure,” Judy Hobbs said. “We started in the first section up there, and then we expanded a couple years ago into the second section. This last [third section] opened up a year ago. The store carries newborn to young and trendy fashions. Judy Hobbs said the business started as a consignment shop, but that, too, has changed. While it is still mostly consignment, it
slowly expanded into new merchandise and a custom line, which includes appliqué and embroidery. “We do a lot of baby gifts,” she said, adding those may include baby blankets, bibs and burp cloths. Parents also can colorcoordinate their items with the infant’s room. The Adorable Child also sells appliqués for children’s clothing. They can have a football, Tennessee Vols logos, princess crowns, Disney, birthday and other designs they want sewn on
an outfit. “We do a lot of hair bows. We customize those, too, to the schools and the school colors,” Hobbs said. Hobbs operates the business, which is family-owned, with Heather Parks, store manager. The Adorable Child is open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday, and from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Saturdays. “We sell things through Facebook at theadorablechild on Facebook,” she said.

West End Center in Farragut welcomes a new business, Stan Swaggerty Tile Design. Stan Swaggerty, owner and installation manager, is re-opening and relocating his business’ showroom to 161 West End Ave. in Farragut. Swaggerty said he and son, Adam Swaggerty, opened the showroom Monday, Sept. 8. “We are extremely excited about this,” Stan Swaggerty said. “It’s something we looked forward to and worked hard to get here.” Stan Swaggerty changed the name of his business, which was previously known as S & L Flooring, after a recommendation from a marketing firm, he said. “I’ve lived here my entire life, and if you ask anybody who S & L Flooring is, they’re not sure; but if you say Stan Swaggerty, they know who it is,” he said. “So, [the marketing representative] said, ‘You just need to promote your name.’” While the showroom at West End Center is new, the business has been in existence for 23 years. Swaggerty said he previously had a private showroom for customers at Century Plaza near Lovell Road, but he closed it two years ago. “We decided to just sell and install tile without the showroom,” he added. The store in West End Center

Coupon book benefits FHS library ■
TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com
Farragut High School joins other Knox County Schools in receiving a donation from coupon book sales proceeds that will provide an eBooks subscription to the school libraries. “We are thrilled that our school library will benefit from the coupon book proceeds because this means that FHS students will benefit from the proceeds,” Holly Matthews, FHS librarian, said. “Our school library serves and supports all FHS students and teachers,” Matthews added. “Putting the money toward an eBook subscription ensures that our students will have access to the information they need and the books they want to read on an ondemand, 24/7 basis.” Sara Searles, library/media services specialist with KCS, said she is thrilled as well, adding she is grateful to be a funds’ recipient. “Library services impact every kid in the district, and we are deeply appreciative to be made a priority in receiving the funds,” she said.
Amanda Johnson, public affairs specialist with Knox County Schools, said 13 cents from the $10 price of the coupon books will go to support kindergarten through 12th-grade eBook subscriptions for all Knox County Schools’ libraries. “Every child in the Knox County Schools can benefit from the sale of the Knox County Schools Coupon Book each year,” Johnson said. “A portion of the purchase price of the book goes to the Knox County Schools’ libraries for the purchase of eBook subscriptions in support of an excellent education for every child.” Johnson said sales of the 2013 coupon book funded a donation of $20,000 for the libraries. That support was recognized during the Knox County Schools Partners in Education Kickoff Breakfast Tuesday Aug. 26, at The University of Tennessee Medical Center. “Most schools can’t afford services like that on their individual budgets, so doing it at the district level lets us make sure we’re providing every student equal access See COUPON BOOK on Page 10B

FHS, 31 others to form new Class 6A ■ ALAN SLOAN

Grant seeks more women, underrepresented students
■
STAFF REPORTS editor@farragutpress.com
Enrollment in STEM — science, technology, engineering and mathematics — at community colleges across the United States comes up short for women and underrepresented students, but at Pellissippi State Community College a new grant will seek to change that. NASA has awarded $499,689 to the Tennessee Community College
Space Grant Consortium, through the Tennessee Space Grant Consortium located at Vanderbilt University, as part of the NASA Solicitation and Proposal Integrated Review and Evaluation System program. The consortium is made up of Pellissippi State and four other Tennessee Board of Regents colleges. “Pellissippi State is a major provider of qualified engineering See NASA on Page 3B

With Tennessee Secondary School Athletic Association voting last month to separate the state’s 32 largest public high school football program’s into a new Class 6A beginning next season, three Farragut area 6A coaches pointed out positives yet expressed a handful of concerns. Eddie Courtney, Farragut High School varsity football head coach since 1996, said the new format “eliminates all that controversy we’ve had in the last few years” in determining which teams make the playoffs: all 32 automatically qualify. Saying his program is used to playing “the biggest and the best” competition, Courtney said he likes the new 32-team 6A format. Division I classes 1A through 5A, meanwhile, revert back to the simpler process of taking the top See CLASS 6A on Page 7B

technicians to local manufacturers,” Peggy Wilson, vice president of College Advancement and executive director of the Pellissippi State Foundation, said. “Similarly, NASA is committed to increasing the number of students graduating with STEM degrees. “While women represent about 61 percent of the total enrollment in the state’s community colleges, they only account for about 11 percent of the enrollment in engineering technology programs.” Underrepresented groups make up about 13 percent of engineering technology program enrollment. As part of the Community College Space Grant Consortium, the college plans to recruit more women and underrepresented groups into STEM-related associate’s degree and certificate programs, particularly in the areas of engineering technology and robotics. The grant will provide $45,000 in scholarships to Pellissippi State. This is the first time that a Space Grant scholarship has been awarded to Tennessee community college students. The grant also will help the school hire a part-time “completion coach” to provide Pellissippi State’s Engineering Technology students the support they need to graduate. The Engineering Technology program culminates in an Associate of Applied Science degree. Additionally, it will pay for membership in the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, and for travel to the IEEE SoutheastCon’s robotics competition and the NASA Summer Robotics Institute at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala. Other members of the consortium include Cleveland State Community College, Columbia State Community College, Northeast State Community College and Roane State Community College.
Moore credits bloodlines for his coaching enthusiasm ■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
David Moore traces his desire to become a coach back to his bloodlines. “A lot of that comes from my dad [David]. My dad coached me in youth sports growing up. I know that’s something that he probably had a desire to do [coach professionally], but didn’t get that opportunity,” said Moore, serving his 31st school year as a coach in four sports at Farragut High School while a driver’s education/physical education teacher. As head coach of FHS Lady Admirals volleyball teams for 23 seasons beginning in the 198788 school year, Moore’s girls were a dominant force in district and Knoxville metro area competition, especially in the first decade of the 2000s. Moore led his girls to numerous district and region championships while earning a handful of Class AAA state tournament appearances. Preparing to enter his 25th season as FHS softball head coach in early 2015, Moore’s diamond girls are regularly in
the hunt for district and region championships. Among this Admiral skipper’s list of softball state tourney accomplishments was finishing tied for third in 2010. “I think I’ve been very blessed with the young ladies that have come through my program,” Moore, 56, said. “You just hope that you can make a difference in young people’s lives, not only from the athletic coaching standpoint but the way they look at life and being part of a team.” Donald Dodgen, FHS athletic director, said Moore is “an outstanding gentleman and teacher, and an excellent coach. A great community person, a great family person.” As a back-up baseball infielder at East Ridge High School in Chattanooga (Class of 1976), Moore said he honed his coaching skills while “a bench player, just kind of observing what other people are doing around us and trying to pick up on things. “I went to The University of Tennessee as a P.E. major and my desire was to coach baseball at that time, going in,” Moore

added. “… Coaching a lot of intramural teams kinda of got me into coaching women, and the softball and volleyball thing kind of spurred from that, too. … In fact, I had a team or two to win All-campus titles a time or two in flag football, softball, volleyball.” Moore began teaching and coaching at FHS in the 1983-84 school year, during which he also served as assistant baseball coach under John Heatherly. He has been at the
school full time since the 198586 school year. He also served as an assistant boys basketball coach under two former varsity skippers, Lynn E. Sexton and Mike Edwards. An avid Atlanta Braves fan, Moore credits a lot of his success to former softball assistant coach Dick Waters, current assistant Nick Green, coach/scorekeeper Ray Watson and former volleyball assistant coach Brendon Cleer.

The book that changed flylady’s life I ran into a Flybaby at the airport in Boston. (What’s a Flybaby? It’s a person who follows the nationally known woman who helps women get organized via the Internet. She wears purple as do many of her followers. I happen to be her mentor.) How could I miss this follower in the airport? She had a purp l e Flylady office in a bag, (sort of a “mobile desk), was wear- Pam ing purple Young and was Make it working Fun! o n deskwork. I went over to her and said, “I recognize your office in a bag, have you read Sink Reflections (Flylady’s book)?” Fifteen minutes later she ran out of breath from espousing her joy and gratitude for Flylady! Then she asked me if I was a Flybaby and I said, “Well, not exactly, but I’m the reason you’re one.” She looked a little confused so I told her this story. My sister and I wrote a book called Sidetracked Home Executives: from pigpen to paradise in 1977. We were slobs (SLOB stands for Spontaneous, Lighthearted, Optimistic and Beloved) and we reformed. That little book was the first “get organized” book on the market written by two people who had been desperately disorganized and turned the situation around 180 degrees. It was an overnight success (well it took about a year) and we were whisked around the country to appear on hundreds of television and radio shows. We met stars and got to play with Oprah many times, who, by the way, is a SHE (Sidetracked
Home Executive). Then we wrote a book called The Sidetracked Sister’s Happiness File and that’s how Flylady comes onto the scene. That book is about using 3x5 cards to help a person be happier. Marla (that’s Flylady’s real neame) was reading that book in bed with her now ex-husband, when she started giggling. Her husband said, “What’s so funny?” So she read the excerpt to him (I’ll include it in this essay) and he said, “That’s not funny at all, that’s disgusting.” She realized at that moment that this marriage was not working; that this man didn’t have a sense of humor and she divorced soon after “the reading.” I know this story because Marla called our office sometime in the early 90s, I happened to answer the phone and she told me what had happened. We’ve been friends for almost 20 years and we’ve helped each other and lifted each other up throughout the time we’ve been blessed to know each other. Our mutual selflessness has given us both an ability to help disorganized women learn to be organized not to please someone else, but to please themselves. Our message has always been laced with love and gratitude and that’s what has fed our friendship. Now I’ve told you that my book changed Marla’s life in a radical way, but Marla turned around and changed, not only my life but my husband’s life in a drastic way! Almost four years ago, I received a book in the mail as a surprise gift from Marla. It was entitled, Why We Get Fat and What We Can Do About It, by Gary Taubes. That book put us on the most healthful track we could ever be on! Because of that book, we don’t count calories, we don’t gain weight AND we are happier! Yes, that’s one of the main changes that happened when we began a high fat, low carbohydrate diet. Probably because we are NEVER hungry so we aren’t
starving our brains of the nutrients a high fat diet gives them. I did have to get a new physician who understands the science behind a Paleo diet and she told me that when we eat more fat our brains thrive! She also believes that the epidemic of Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and dementia are directly related to the low fat craze mainstream medicine and our government has pushed down our throats since the 60s. She should know, she’s also a psychiatrist. So I can say, “Because of Marla we have no sugar in our house,” (except for a one-pound box that’s nowhere near empty, because it’s used for when company wants sugar in tea or coffee). (I did have a very small piece of wedding cake a couple years ago and I had a hangover like I had in my younger days of drinking too much.) Here’s that excerpt. We [my sister and I] spent a lot of our time in our room. We avoided having to go downstairs, because when Mom would see us, she’d think of things for us to do…like housework. We invented ways to stay self-contained upstairs. Having no bathroom up there posed a problem until we thought of using the window. We opted for the windowsill above the dining room, facing the secluded canyon. Sitting on the edge with our feet outside the window, we watched the trickles as they flowed down the mossy sloping roof out of sight. Our parents never knew until years later, when Dad installed a TV antenna on the roof and was puzzled by the two distinct paths carved out of the green moss. He told Mom that it was strange that the moss was only dead in two strips.

Manorhouse expands Increased demand for safe and secure living arrangements for seniors that are managing memory impairment has led to the expansion of the Alzheimer’s and dementia care program in the Pavilion at Manorhouse Assisted Living. “By adding 10 apartments, a second dining and activity space, updating the finishes in the living areas, and renovating the existing indoor and outdoor common areas of the Pavilion, we have expanded and further enhanced what we can offer to our current and new residents,” Tim Robinson, Manorhouse executive director, said. “Whether a resident is in the early stages of Alzheimer’s or has been managing it for many years, Manorhouse families rest easy knowing that their loved one is in good hands.

Victory Birds’ $5,000-plus to fight brain cancer
■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
The vision of a Union Cumberland Presbyterian Church member with Christian empathy toward the horrors of brain cancer, inaugural Friends of Brooke Wheeler’s Victory Birds 5K/ Pet-and-Kid Walk/ Gathering fundraiser drew between 125 and 150 participants Saturday, Aug. 23. “I would have loved to see more, but considering that we did that in three weeks time, we thought it was phenomenal,” said Becky Johnson, UCPC member whose daughter, Brooke Wheeler of Austin, Texas, is successfully battling brain cancer. “This is going to be annual and we’re going to grow it next year.” Victory Birds’ effort “raised over $5,000” to fight brain cancer, Johnson added about the event, which was held near UCPC. “We’re absolutely happy. In the back of my mind I knew that if we made $5,000 it was successful. I was not expecting that.” Johnson emphasized the event contributions from Ted Hall, WVLT-TV 8 news anchor whose son “also has a brain tumor,” she said. “He spoke at the event and then [Hall, his wife and son] walked and ran the race.” Wheeler, among a handful of speakers, said the event “was
just really overwhelming and humbling. … We desire for people to catch a vision that we have that we know is important to us personally. And to have people step in so quickly … means a lot. “It was amazing to see the people that come out who had personally been touched by brain cancer themselves,” she added. “… I think that made me more passionate about being involved in it in Tennessee as I am in Texas. “Seeing the need being met was super humbling and awesome.” Among the speakers was participant Sean Driscoll, “Who spoke about the loss of his sister just a couple of months ago from brain cancer,” Johnson said. “The more aggressive form of brain cancer.” Brooke added, “Sometimes you just want to forget you have it. But remembering how much it meant to me to have people come to me when I was sick … reminds me that it’s important for me to do the same thing. … So it makes me have a passion to be more involved in it.” Planning to make this an annual event, Victory Birds fundraiser was the brainchild of Mary Jo Turner of Union Cumberland Presbyterian Church, wife of the Rev. Leonard Turner, UCPC pastor. “The feedback we got, people

said it was a fun event and they didn’t feel rushed to do things,” Johnson said. “We had so many events there: we had firemen come out for the children, we had inflatable stuff for the kids. People spoke and they hung out and they ate. … And we had music: George Massingill and Mitchell Davis were there to perform. They did line dancing.” One change might be in the works. “We hope to have it an a different time next year when it’s not too hot,” Johnson said. “… We haven’t met to make that determination yet. … And we want to involve more teams where people have been affected by brain cancer, and they can raise their own funds.”

Concerning the higher financial cost of traveling greater distances to play regular season games, Courtney said, “We’re OK with that.” As for the new Class 6A east region, “It’s my understanding, and this is not official … it’ll be Science Hill, Kingsport, Sevier County, us, Hardin Valley, Bearden and we’ll wait and see what William Blount’s going to do, they’re right on the edge, and Maryville’s right on the edge,” Courtney said. Wes Jones, HVA head coach, said the new 32-team format “is not all bad. It’s going to increase the travel for us, but I’m a lot like Eddie [Courtney], we’re trying to play

four teams in the district. “I only have one little concern, and we can work through that, is playing Kingsport [Dobyns-Bennett] and playing [Johnson City] Science Hill, and playing those with great travel, it’s going to be hard to schedule Monday JV/ freshmen games,” Courtney added about the same schools following up Friday varsity games with Monday JV/freshmen games against the same school. “… You play a program a hundred miles away, it’s hard on Mondays to go play a JV/freshmen game” with school the next morning.
some of those teams that we’re going to be in the region with. We haven’t traveled that far east in our program yet with Dobyns-Bennett and Science Hill.” Jones said he had one concern about the new format. “When TSSAA says, ‘you’re in the 32,’ what are going to be the prerequisites for these teams to want to start jockeying and dropping down?” he said. “Who’s to say that if one team wants to go down, why do they get to go down if they’re in the top 32?” Acknowledging higher travel expenses within this new format, “I definitely think so,” Jones said. Jones also expressed concern about long travel to play junior var-

I do like that aspect of it.”
“We’ll play whoever they put on our schedule. … You got to kind of go with what our governing body decides what’s best for our football programs throughout the state.” As for long trips to the Tri-Cities and other possible long distance games, “We’ve done that before. We’re no strangers to the travel,” Shinlever said. “… If we’re going to be a serious playoff-contending team, that we need to be able to get on a bus and travel a little bit to play a ballgame.” George Quarles, head coach of current Class 6A powerhouse and defending state champ Maryville, said he “really didn’t have an opinion” on the new format.

Beckner From page 5B
Chelsey Riemann, Farragut public relations coordinator, said. “We feature artists of all kinds, and she makes beautiful handmade purses and clothes for kids, so her sewing is an art in itself,” Riemann added. “I love sewing,” Beckner said. “It keeps my sanity.” “What I like the most, more than anything, is making children’s clothes,” she added. “I like to make pocket books and things like that, too.” The artist said her mother had always sewn and taught Beckner how to sew. She made her first dress at age 16.
”I wanted a dress, and my mother was in the hospital, so I made the dress myself,” she said. Once Beckner became a mother, she made clothes for her two daughters, among them prom dresses and a wedding dress. She will be making clothes for a granddaughter, which is due in October, she said. Beckner said she enjoys sewing the children's clothes, purses and other handmade items to sell and raise funds for mission trips to Haiti. The artist volunteers with One Vision International Children's Home in Archaei, Haiti, teaching the oldest girls sewing skills so they will have a skill when they age out of the orphanage, she
said. Beckner will take her fifth trip to Archaei, Hati, in November. She learned about the mission opportunity from John Miller, who came up with One Vision and attends her church, she said. “I’ve known John my whole life, and I’ve always wanted to go on a mission trip,” she said. “When they came up with this sewing project, I thought that would be perfect. That’s for me.” Beckner is employed full-time by the Knox County Public Building Authority. Farragut Town Hall, 11408 Municipal Center Drive directly across from the Farragut Branch Post Office, is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Bailey, Campbell to perform in ‘Seussical’ ■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
Jacob Bailey is attempting to take his singing talent to a new level, performing in a high-profile setting for the first time ever, while playing a “bad guy.” This 15-year-old freshman at Knoxville Christian School plays one of the Wickersham Brothers in “Seussical: The Musical,” Presented by Knoxville Children’s Theatre, 109 E. Churchwell Ave. The curtain rises at 7 p.m., Thursdays and Fridays; 1 p.m. and 5 p.m., Saturdays, and at 3 p.m., Sundays, Sept. 19 through Oct. 5. “I’ve always sang before but I’ve never been in a play or a musical,” said Bailey, who is joined in the musical by another Farragut-area talent, Emma Campbell. This 17-year-old said she is looking toward a theaterrelated career. Bailey’s big break came because his younger sisters “were trying out for it and my mom was talking about it, and I just asked if I could also try out. So she called
the director [Deanna Surber] and asked if I could try out, if there were any spots left for me to try out for,” he said. “I tried out mainly just to get a part and they ended up giving me that role.” As a result, “I enjoy acting, it’s really fun,” Bailey said. “… I’ve met new friends and we talk about a bunch of different things.” Making it more enjoyable is his character. “It’s a bad guy … almost devious,” Bailey said. “You just get to almost tease the good guy. … My character just like runs around and does a whole bunch of stuff on stage. It’s a whole lot of fun.” While Bailey doesn’t have any speaking lines, “I have multiple solos,” he said. Campbell, a home-schooled high school senior, is in Seussical for the second time: the first time, as a seventh-grader, “got me hooked.” A veteran of KCT and other high school performances who

FHS Band ‘Fruit Sale Blitz Day’ this Saturday While Fruit Blitz may sound like a new breakfast cereal to many people, the members of Farragut High School Marching Admirals Band know what it is really about. On the morning of Saturday, Sept. 20, band members will meet at Farragut High School, arm themselves with order forms, and hit the streets of Farragut, going door-to-door in search of fruit-loving band supporters. The name of the day, which comes around annually, is Fruit Sale Blitz Day. Each year, the band sells grapefruit, naval oranges, juice oranges and tangelos. Whole and half boxes of each kind of fruit are available, but the most popular order are the mixed boxes, with a little bit of everything. Prices vary depending on the type of fruit and whether a whole box or half box is ordered. The
fruit sale is the band’s largest fundraiser of the year, and all proceeds go to the band booster account, which helps pay for instruments and equipment. Band members will begin knocking on doors around 9 a.m. and will continue to canvas Farragut neighborhoods throughout the day. Saturday, Dec. 6, the band members will once again gather at the school, this time to pick up boxes of fruit, retrace their steps and deliver the fruit to the doors of those who ordered from them. For more information about the FHS Band Fruit Blitz Day, contact Step-hanie Nelson at fhsfruitcommander@gmail.com or snelson-411@tds.net. More information about the Farragut High School Band can be found on the website, www.farragutband.org/

to these high-quality materials,” Searles said. “And, the great thing about using it for online subscription services is that those are available to kids 24/7 with Internet access. That allows us to really expand our services outside our physical walls to exactly when and where kids – and their parents – need them.” Besides the eBook subscription, Farragut High School has more than 20,000 volumes of books, eBooks from ABC-CLIO, a social studies publisher that has social studies-related databases and books; eBooks from Gale Virtual Reference Library and access to Tennessee Electronic Library, which is a free resource for all Tennessee residents. “The more materials and more up-to-date materials, since we live
in the 21st century, the better,” Matthews said. “It’s great,” FHS senior Ben Rutter said about the donation of the eBook subscription. “It’s really going to keep up the academics here at Farragut. It will allow us to do more research, and it expands our range of what we can learn.” Kayland Boling, another FHS senior, said she also thought the additional eBook subscription will be great. “It will be easier to do research papers,” Boling said. “We will have better access to information.” “In addition to producing the Knox County Schools Coupon Book, the Partners in Education program also supplements school needs through Dine Out for Education, Teacher Supply Depot and the Clothing Center and supports teachers and students through teacher recognition events, Career Day for eighth-
through 12th-graders, scholarships and more,” she said. The 2014 coupon book went on sale Sept. 4 for $10 each. Johnson said the book will be easier to use as it is divided into sections to match users’ needs – food, fun, home retail and services. “It offers close to $10,000 in savings from more than 264 merchants,” she said. Of the $10 price, Johnson said $8 will stay with the school selling the book. Seventy cents from the sale is redistributed to schools with greater economic need within Knox County Schools; 13 cents supports the eBook subscriptions; 54 cents supports administrative costs and incentives and 63 cents funds printing costs.

I fell in love with theater in general through that show.” Looking ahead to college, “I want to dual-major in theater and education,” Campbell said. “I would love to teach theater. It’s meant so much to me in my life, I’d like to share that with the next generation of kids.” For tickets or more information, call 865-208-3677.
