Farragut 5k moved to Oct. 11 ■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
The 20th Annual Farragut Fall 5k Fun Walk and Pet Parade, presented by Farragut West Knox Chamber of Commerce, has been moved up to October. Race begins at approximately 8 a.m., Saturday, Oct. 11, on Watt Road near the intersection with Kingston Pike, running through Sedgefield subdivision and ending in Mayor Bob Leonard Park. “Being our 20th makes it even more special,” Bettye Sisco, Chamber president/CEO, said. “We’re thrilled about it. It’s a lot of fun getting together.” Registration for those who do not pre-register goes from 7 to 7:30 a.m., Oct. 11, in the park and costs $25 per runner or walker. “Watt Road closes at 7:30 so they have to get in,” Sisco said about participant arrival times. Cost is $20 per runner or walker who pre-register by credit card online at www.farragutchamber.com/chamber/5kr egistration-2014.php no later than Oct. 3. (Non-participant donations can be made at this site). Teams of four signing up
together are charged only the price of three. “We’re hoping for 230 this year,” Sisco said about a field that annually includes not only a strong statewide representation, but extends throughout the Southeastern United States. “Last year we had them from Kentucky, North Carolina and the southeast. It’s advertised in USA [Track & Field] magazine. It’s sanctioned and certified by USATF, which is important.” Medallions will be awarded to top three finishers in each gender and age category, from 14and-under through 86-90 and 91plus. First overall male and female finisher each receive an undisclosed cash prize. Among feedback Sisco said she annually hears about why avid runners enjoy the course, “Because when they finish they’re going downhill instead of uphill.” The fundraising race and walk has been moved up roughly three weeks versus the early November dates in recent years based on “the availability of the

Taking advantage of annual Free Flu Shot Saturday in Farragut every fall, sponsored once again by The Rotary Club of Farragut, goes beyond concern for your own health. It can help ensure loved ones, some of whom can be seriously or even fatally vulnerable to disease, don’t get the flu. This year’s Free Flu Shot Saturday takes places from 8 a.m. until noon, or until vaccine runs out, Saturday, Sept. 27, in Farragut High School Commons. There is no charge. “It doesn’t cost anything and it isn’t painful,” said Mark Bialik, a Farragut Rotarian who heads up Free Flu Shot Saturday at FHS for the club. “The reason I get so worked up about this is, back in 2006 when I first became a Rotary member in Farragut and they had this, I
worked mainly to get my flu shot because at that time my wife and I were primary care givers to her parents,” added Bialik, who will among an estimated 25 FRC volunteers, in addition to help from The Rotary Club of Turkey Creek Sunset, coordinating things at FHS. “And if we brought the flu into their house it could literally kill them. That was eye-opening to me. “They were very elderly and not in the best of health. And my wife and I wanted to make sure we were doing it by trying to protect their health as much as possible. There’s no guarantee that you’re not going to get the flu, but it does lower your chances of getting certain strains of flu. … I believe this one is going to cover the H1N1 strain.” Student nurses from The University of Tennessee will be on hand to administer the vaccine, Bialik said. Bialik recalled “about 1,200
shots last year” given during Farragut Free Flu Shot Saturday. “If my memory serves me correctly, I think in 2007 or 2008 we did a high of over 2,100 shots,” he added. “I don’t know why it’s been declining. We’ve been averaging between 1,200 and 1,500 shots a year.” A pre-screening with a nurse or “medical person” upon arrival at FHS would uncover anyone who, due to allergies such as being allergic to eggs, would not be able to take the flu vaccine, Bialik said. As for how long you’ll have to wait, “If you walked in around 9 o’clock in the morning, I would be willing to bet you’ll be out by 9:05,” Bialik said. However, in some cases — a longer screening time and a long line for the shot — it could take up to 30 minutes, Bialik added. Though there is no charge for See FLU on Page 4A
FHS receives Reward School recogition for second year ■ ALAN SLOAN
asloan@farragutpress.com
During the previous two school years, Farragut High School has achieved special recognition as a Reward School from Tennessee Department of Education. FHS is one of only a handful of schools in Tennessee to achieve in the top five percent statewide in both student performance and student academic progress during 2012-13 and 2013-14 — and
the only public school in Knox County achieving both. “That’s exceptional, actually,” John Beckett, director of Research and Evaluation for Knox County Schools, said.. Last school year, FHS was one of just 10 schools in Tennessee to achieve in the top five percent in both categories statewide. For 2012-13, FHS was one of only 16 schools statewide to achieve both benchmarks. Performance and growth dur-

ing the past two schools years was measured based on six subjects: algebra I, algebra II, English I, English II, English III and biology I, Beckett said. Progress is determined based on “what a student was predicted to score [compared to] what they actually scored,” Beckett said. “Some schools were blackballed if their achievement gaps were growing,” he added about a school having “a gap in proficien-
cy” between non-special education and special education students, for example. “Like if your rich kids are doing all the growing at the expense of the poor, that would be blackballed.” However, “Farragut was [growing] across the board,” Beckett said. “… They’re doing a great job with all students.” Debbie Sayers, FHS curriculum principal, said, “It really takes everybody to make that

Town receives $258k traffic light federal grant ■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
Smoother traffic flow along Kingston Pike, Campbell Station Road and Parkside Drive in Farragut, based on improved synchronization of the Town’s 24 red lights, is estimated to be a reality sometime in late 2015. A $258,000 Congestion Mitigation Air Quality federal grant, fully funding the project,
recently was presented to town of Farragut as part of a nationwide effort to reduce vehicular emissions that build up through excessive idling at red lights. “It’s kind of taking a step back and looking at how all of the signals operate. … The re-timing of the signals,” Darryl Smith, Town engineer, said. “The idea is by reducing congestion within an urban area, we can improve the air quality by having lower emis-

FMPC rejects proposed car wash at Silver Spoon Rocky Chambers of Chattanooga Engineering Group, the developer proposing a car wash at the former Silver Spoon restaurant site at the corner of South Campbell Station Road and Kingston Pike, can expect to look elsewhere for a location. Farragut Municipal Planning Commission voted 7-1 to reject a proposed site plan for the car washat its July meeting, citing the use for the location was not consistent with its Land Use Plan, which FMPC certified in 2012. While Commissioner Noah Myers voted to approve the site plan, fellow Commissioners
Betty Dick, Ed Whiting, Ron Honken, Mayor Ralph McGill, chair Rita Holladay, Ed St. Clair and Louise Povlin voted against Myers’ motion for approval. Chambers applied to put Farragut Express Car Wash at 103 S. Campbell Station Road, the southwest intersection of South Campbell Station Road and Kingston Pike. Mark Shipley, Farragut Community Development director, said Chambers recently finished a car wash project in the Cedar Bluff area along Kingston Pike. The applicant and the realtor visited with Shipley, assistant director Ashley Miller and Town
assistant administrator Gary Palmer July 2 to discuss their plans. Shipley said the staff contacted Chambers, both by e-mail and letter, and told him the proposed use was inconsistent with the Town’s Land Use Plan. Shipley said he told the developer Town staff would be happy to help with other sites. “That area is specified as a Town center,” Shipley said. “We could not support that use in that particular location. One of the things we are working on is bringing about a downtown center.” Additionally, he said the staff has presented Chambers with 30
items that need to be addressed on the site plan. “They may be administrative, but that’s a lot of comments, so that is grounds for denying the site plan,” Shipley said. Chambers, civil engineer on the project, said his group looked at other properties for the project. “[The requested site] was zoned for a car wash,” he said concerning the former Silver Spoon restaurant site. Commissioner Ed St. Clair asked if Chambers traced the movement of the traffic from the car wash. “We wanted to keep the car
wash as far as possible from traffic,” Chambers said. “We narrowed it up to restrict traffic.” The site plan shows customers would exit close to South Campbell Station Road. Chambers said the traffic would not come directly from South Campbell Station Road, however. It would turn onto an access road. “I think you made a palatable effort, but I just can’t bring myself to support a car wash in that location,” Honken said. “So, you are OK with the design, but not the use for that corner?” Chambers asked. “Correct,” Honken answered.

The Perry Management Group will have to wait for at least another month before Farragut Municipal Planning Commission will act on its request to rezone PMG’s property along North Campbell Station Road, near I/40-75 Interstate, from R-2 to R6. If the rezoning were approved, it would allow an apartment development on that property. However, the Planning Commission voted 8-1 to defer action until it receives traffic impact study findings on the proposed rezoning during its meeting Thursday, Sept. 18. Commissioner Ron Honken voted against deferring action. The 33-acre property on which PMG is requesting the rezoning is at 109 N. Campbell Station, located north of the Interstate and Holiday Inn Express and

next to Knoxville Christian School. “We are not against this project,” Blake Graham of KCS said. “We would like to see the traffic studies, and we would like to work with them to make sure our properties are adjoined properly, that there’s plenty of space around it. I’ve seen the plans. I think it’s going to go well.” “We really want to work with the school behind us,” Jason Perry of PMG said. On another note, Susan Buell of Grigsby Chapel Road said she is concerned about the traffic. Mark Shipley, Farragut Community Development director, said the property is a good candidate for the R-6 overlay district, which the Board of Mayor and Aldermen approved on first reading during its Thursday, Sept. 11 meeting, because the property has the physical limitations addressed in the amendment. With Farragut “being within the metropolitan area of Knoxville, there’s an air quality issue,” Smith said. Mike Conger, senior transportation engineer with Knoxville Regional Transportation Planning Organization, said the Knoxville metro area is designated “non-attainment” because of monitors detecting below standard Environmental Protection Agency air quality. This prompted the federal grants to Farragut and other

• This is regarding the proposed 200-unit apartment complex off of Grigsby Chapel Road. Mayor to aldermen: hey, I’ve got a great idea, let’s make traffic worse on Grigsby Chapel, let’s irritate current voters and property owners, and let’s put a huge burden on our schools in the future. Editor’s Note: According to Town officials, no one has proposed or submitted plans for an apartment complex off Grigsby Chapel Road. A developer has conducted unofficial conversation with Grigsby Chapel Road residents about the possibility of developing property east of Chapel Pointe subdivision with apartments. Another builder is looking at property off North Campbell Station Road as a site for a possible apartment complex. • The current proposed amendments to the R-6 zone is clearly a prelude to a proposed project for a 200-apartment complex off Grigsby Chapel Road near Fretz Road. The additional traffic cannot be handled by Grigsby Chapel Road and the congestion will encourage more cut-through traffic in the surrounding neighborhoods. The project is bad planning and a bad idea. • I am a Village Green resident in Farragut and I am concerned about the apartment complex off Grigsby Chapel Road that is being proposed — 200 units. Grigsby Chapel is an overused road as it is. There are a lot of traffic issues in my opinion. They are looking at 200 units. What’s
to say they won’t look at more units. With more units there is more traffic. You’ve had an affect on our schools that caused a rezoning recently. There are a lot of issues that come along with the additional 200-unit apartment complex. I don’t think it’s feasible for the overcrowded area that they’re looking at putting that facility. I am a concerned resident about the traffic issues that will [inaudible] as it is. • This is in regard to the current issue of the presstalk concerning bicyclists and cars. As a bicyclist, I will admit a lot of bicyclists do not follow the rules of the road as they should. But, according to state law, bicyclists have just as much right to any road in the state as a car does. Now, according to rules of the road for bicyclists, if a car comes up behind them they are supposed to move over and allow that car to pass if possible. A lot of roads, particularly on Virture and Grigsby Chapel and Turkey Creek roads, there are curves in there that cars need to slow down, because I have ridden those myself and cars come around there flying, and they always honk their horns and give obscene gestures to the bicyclists, but I will admit that some bicyclists do not follow the rules of the road. So, I hope this answers some questions. There again, a bicyclist has just a much right to the road as does a car and that people in cars need to respect that. • Editorial freedom is a wonderful concept, but it does come

Friday night was a time for offensive fireworks at Bill Clabo Field as West and Farragut combined for more than 1,000 yards of total offense. It was an old fashioned shootout and when the dust had settled it was the Rebels who left FHS with a 49-30 District 4Rebels 49 AAA victory.

We had three holding penalties and two of those forced touchdowns to be called back. “I think our offense played well outside of the three holding penalties.” Farragut junior quarterback Jacob Naumoff had his best outing of the 2014 season as he passed for 324 yards and a touchdown against West, which lost in the 2013 Class 5A championship game last season. Naumoff may have put up
some big numbers against the Rebels (3-1 overall, 1-1 in District 4-AAA), but he was disappointed by the mistakes. “We just kept shooting ourselves in the foot tonight,” said Naumoff, who went 27-for-45 through the air and threw a touchdown pass. “Now, we have a bye [this] week and we just have to put the first half of the season behind us.” West, which is noted for its split-back veer running attack, scored the first two touchdowns of the game via its aerial attack. The Rebels took a 7-0 lead on their first possession when quarterback Seth Marshall connected with Alex Burch on a 24-yard scoring strike with 10 minutes, 7 seconds remaining in the first quarter. West extended its lead to 13-0 later in the frame when head coach Scott Cummings went into his bag of tricks and called a halfback pass play. Running back Nathan Cottrell executed the play perfectly and tossed a 45-yard touchdown pass to Hayden Boyd a short time later. Kicker Joe Hanna missed the ensuing extra point after the touchdown, which was set up when Naumoff threw See FARRAGUT on Page 9A

Rarely do the losing team’s fans cheer louder at the end of a game than the winning team’s fans. It was all about fan respect for Hardin Valley Academy’s effort, especially defensively, against nationally ranked perennial Class 6A football power Maryville, winner of three state titles the past four seasons. Actually leading the state’s top-ranked Red Rebels 3-0 until the final seconds of the first half, on a 35-yard field goal by Alan Grigsby minutes into the game, the Hawks eventually lost 16-3 at HVA Friday evening, Sept. 19. “I think it’s been a long time since they’ve been held to 16 points,” Garrett Curtis, senior defensive tackle/offensive lineman who helped disrupt the MHS offense, said. “It’s not a
moral victory, but we kind of look at this as building for us because we had an intensity that we felt, if we keep on using it, we can do some special stuff.” While Hardin Valley fell to 2-2 overall, 1-1 in District 4-AAA, MHS improved to 4-0, 2-0. As for Red Rebels 16 giving out specific Hawks 3 credit for the defensive effort and performance, “I say this all the time, coach [Paul] Maynard,” Curtis said about the HVA defensive coordinator. “… I think he’s one of the best at it because we knew what was going to happen, how it was going to happen, when it was going to happen as soon as they lined up.” “Coach Maynard put together a good gameplan,” HVA head coach Wes Jones said. “Our kids believed that they could win the ballgame,” Jones
added. “We challenged those guys … They just played as hard as they could. I’m real proud of their effort,” Jones added. Individually, Jones praised his defensive line while singling out Curtis and Joey Cave, who “showed up early at the tackle spots in there … and Joe DeFur [junior defensive end] up front. I thought our defensive line did a fantastic job against a great football team. Our linebackers, Haddon Hill had a good ballgame. And sophomore [linebacker] Timmy Frizzell.” “We finally figured out how to play at a high level.” Joel Hopkins, one of Maryville’s top running backs, said Frizzell “played a heck of a game.” Hill said, “It’s a tough one to swallow with a loss, but I’m proud of our defense tonight. … We held one of the best teams we’re See HVA on Page 8A

Kelsey Klett [junior defender] was really good. And Dominique Rowe in back,” he said.
Farragut High School’s girls soccer team had to answer a late wake-up call to record a District 4-AAA victory Thursday, Sept. 18. It took 30 minutes for the Lady Admirals to find their shooting touch. But once Farragut’s attack clicked into gear, the Lady Ads had little trouble in a 9-0 victory over William Blount at Farragut Soccer Stadium. The Lady Admirals (5-4-2 overall, 2-1-1 in District 4-AAA starting the Lady Admiral 9 week) peppered Lady Govs 0 William Blount senior goalkeeper Marian Budnar with 19 shots before halftime but couldn’t score until the 30th minute. That was when Lady Ads’ freshman midfielder/forward Emilie Guigou tallied the game’s first marker. Guigou’s goal was the first of five in the final 10-plus minutes of the opening half — all by Farragut freshmen. “We got some shots early but we were shooting them right at [Budnar],” FHS head coach Dennis Lindsay said. “It took us a while to wake up and play,” said sophomore defender Grace Sommi, who had a goal in the match and has emerged as a veteran leader for

the Lady Admirals this season. “We did get a chance to get some younger players in there and that’s good because those younger players are our future.” Guigou opened the scoring against the Lady Governors (3-7, 0-5). Eryn Hill, another freshman forward and midfielder, put in the next two goals. “It was nice to score those goals,” said Hill, who is the younger sister of former FHS netminder Katy Hill, now at CarsonNewman. “I couldn’t have scored those goals without the help from
my teammates. “It was all just a matter of working together.” Freshman forward Aryka Keyes closed out the first-half scoring with a pair of markers. “It was great to get the opportunity to score those goals,” Keyes said. Senior forward Kendall Clay made it 6-0 with a goal in the 65th minute. Sommi’s goal came about three minutes later. Midfielder Skylar Keane, another freshman, scored in the 76th minute. Junior defender Kortney Haliburton had the final goal, which came in the 77th minute.

Paige Hewitt dominated the pitch at Hardin Valley Academy with special scoring punch last Thursday. The sophomore forward recorded a three-goal “hat trick,” as Hardin Valley Academy rebounded strong from its first loss of 2014 by defeating West 4-1 Sept. 18. With Hewitt also winning praise from HVA head coach Mike McLean, Lady Hawks 4 “I’d say it’s the best Lady Rebels 1 g a m e she’s played at Hardin Valley,” said McLean, whose team improved to 7-1-2 overall, 4-1 in District 4-AAA, after last Thursday’s win. “I felt it was a good win coming off our first loss of the year,” McLean added. Hardin Valley bounced back from a 2-0 home loss against 4AAA power Maryville Tuesday, Sept. 16, which improved the Lady Red Rebels’ record to 10-02. But against West, “Dominique Rowe, she played really well for us,” McLean said about his junior defender. Gabby Powers scored the other HVA goal Thursday. Against Maryville, the Lady Hawks actually out-shot MHS 119 according to Maryville statistics, a count McLean did not dispute. “We had plenty of chances. … In the first half I thought we were the better team,” McLean said about the Maryville loss. “But their keeper [Molli Miller] was great. I think she’s one of the better keepers I’ve seen this year.” Mariah Plieseis, Lady Red Rebels senior forward, scored both goals: the first on a sharpangled shot from the left side, from about 20 yards out, in the 25th minute before applying a huge emotional and momentum dagger. Plieseis’s free kick, from about 25 yards out, found the back of the net with just 9.3 seconds left in the first half. About damaging his team’s momentum, “It did,” McLean said about the last-second free-kick goal. “… And it got us to start changing things too early” in the second half. “We just looked awful the second half.” McLean noted standout individual performances against Maryville. “Probably Gwen Breslin [freshman forward]. …

going to face this season, if not the best, to only 16 points.” Further challenging Maryville’s offense was the loss of senior starting quarterback Tyler Vaught, who left after injuring his non-throwing shoulder early in the third quarter. “It looks like he’ll be out a few weeks,” MHS head coach George Quarles said. “That’s a blow.” Back-up quarterbacks Zach Cardwell, a junior, and Austin Ensley, a sophomore, alternated the rest of the game — never having played “in a meaningful situation,” Quarles said. The Red Rebels’ ground game, however, did loosen up the Hawks considerably in the second half. That was led by Hopkins, Jaylen Burgess and Dylan Shinsky, who combined to run for most of Maryville’s 298 total rush-
ing yards that produced TD runs of 4 and 7 yards. The Red Rebels outgained HVA 398 versus 145. “In the second half we wore out a little bit,” Jones said. However, tough goal-line and red zone defense by Hardin Valley held down the final Maryville tally, twice stopping the Red Rebels on downs inside the HVA 5. “You’ve got to give Hardin Valley a lot of credit. They hit us in the mouth, I thought they were really physical defensively,” Quarles said. “The minus yardage plays were killers for us. They did a great job of bringing pressure.” Hardin Valley got off to a great start. Jordan Ervin, Red Rebels kick returner, mishandled the opening kickoff and was tackled at the MHS 8. After a three-and-out stop by the Hawks defense, HVA sophomore quarterback Gavin Green, in his first-ever varsity start, led
HVA from midfield to the Maryville 3 before being pushed back prior to Grigsby’s field goal, which came with 8:31 left in the first quarter. Key plays included Greene’s 20-yard pass to Tyler Lingerfelt. “In the first half we had great field position,” Jones said. “Our defense played fantastic. Our special teams did a good job.” About starting Greene, Jones said, “It was a bold move, and Gavin responded. If you’re going to bring a young guy into the ballgame that you’ve got some confidence in, there’s no better game to bring him into than when nobody in the world thinks you’ve got a chance. … I think he did a good job, delivered the football well for us.” Greene said, “I felt confident in what we had in the system going in. I felt really confident in our defense. They played a great game. We’ve just got to get more done on offense next time.”
KEN LAY Correspondent
LENOIR CITY — Turnovers proved to be the undoing for Bearden High School’s football team Friday night. The Bulldogs had three interceptions and lost four fumbles in a 23-13 loss to LCHS in a District 4-AAA tilt Sept. 19. For the third consecutive week, the Bulldogs (0-5 overall, 0-2 in 4AAA) darted out to an early lead when Bryson Ford returned the game’s opening kickoff for a touchdown. Bearden, however, couldn’t maintain its advantage. BHS head coach Morgan Shinlever was disappointed by the turnovers that led to his team’s fifth consecutive loss, but he found plenty of positives. “We moved the ball as needed but we have to eliminate those turnovers,” Shinlever said. “That’s kind of been our M.O. all year and the No. 1 stat when it comes to wins and losses is turnovers. “In order for us to be successful in the win column, we can’t turn the ball over.” Defensively, Bearden linebacker Griffin DeLong had 26 tackles. The Bulldogs, however, couldn’t find an answer for LCHS running back Matt Scott. Scott had two touchdowns in
the game. Quarterback Rashawn Tallent also had a touchdown run for the Panthers (2-2, 1-1) who have won two consecutive games. Sergio Cornejo kicked a field goal, which helped Lenoir City snatch its first win against the Bulldogs. “We’re continuing to grow and improve as a football team,” Shinlever said. “We’re growing each week and we’re getting better. We returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown.” BearPanthers 23 d e n ’ s o t h e r Bulldogs 13 s c o r e came when quarterback Evan White threw a touchdown to Skyler Hammett. “Skyler made a couple of guys miss,” Shinlever said. After a winless first half of the season, the Bulldogs will have a bye this week and Shinlever said that the open date comes at just the right time. “We couldn’t ask for a better bye week,” Shinlever said. “It will allow us to get back to fundamentals.” After this week’s open date, the Bulldogs host West Friday, Oct. 3. and Hardin Valley Academy on Oct. 10. The Red Rebels toppled Farragut 49-30 and the Hawks dropped a 16-3 decision to Maryville Sept. 19. Bearden will renew its rivalry with the Ads at Bill Clabo Field Oct. 17.

an interception to Max Bacon. The Ads (1-4, 1-1), however, would respond by scoring the next two touchdowns late in the first frame. Farragut pulled to within 13-7 when Tanner Thomas scored from one yard out. Naumoff knotted threw a 22-yard touchdown pass to Derek Williams. Carter Phillipy’s extra point gave the Ads the lead 14-13. The go-ahead score was set up when Davis Simmons recovered a fumbled handoff by the Rebels. The Admirals were without several starters, including linebacker Cole Strange who was serving a suspension after being ejected against Fulton.
“We had some injuries and suspensions and that limited us on defense,” Courtney said. “We had to stay in a four-man front all night and we couldn’t adjust and [West] runs that veer as well as anybody.” The Rebels rumbled for 474 rushing yards. Cummings, on the other hand, didn’t make any excuses after his team gave up 516 total yards to the Ads, who lost one of their biggest offensive weapons early when running back Jeremiah Partin was injured and carted off the field on a stretcher. “Our defense didn’t show up at all tonight and that’s a major concern,” Cummings said. That’s not to take anything away from Farragut. They did a good job

Marshall’s scoring scamper covered 70 yards. Cottrell’s 5-yard dash made the score 35-14. Phillippy added a 26-yard field goal making it 35-17 at halftime. FHS pulled to within 35-24 on a 7-yard run by Thomas, who finished with 175 yards and three TDs on a career-high 37 carries. Marshall’s 1-yard run made it 42-24 late in the third stanza. Farragut’s lone score in the final frame came from Thomas. Cottrell closed the scoring with a 51-yard scamper with 9:17 left in the game.

Catholic’s dominant season continues in Week 4 ■
KEN LAY Correspondent
Week 5 in the chase for the 2014 farragutpress How the West was Won Trophy presented by 3 Minute Magic Carwash may be abbreviated but that doesn’t mean that it won’t have an impact on which team will be the last one standing at the end of October. Hardin Valley will travel to Blaine Stadium to take on Knoxville Catholic, the last local remaining unbeaten team and the 2013 defending champion. Christian Academy of Knoxville will get the week started tonight (Sept. 25) when it hosts Grace Christian Academy in a key Rivalry Thursday tilt. Bearden and Farragut will both have an open date this week. The Irish (4-0) remained undefeated with a 55-7 home win over Chattanooga Tyner Friday night. Catholic dominated this contest from the outset. Senior quarterback Zac Jancek threw three touchdown passes. He com-
pleted nine of his 12 pass attempts before taking a well-deserved break after halftime. Logan Lacey had a pair of touchdowns. He opened the scoring with a 1yard plunge in the first quarter. He later caught a TD pass from Jancek. Dom Souder caught a touchdown pass and had a defensive score when recovered a Tyner fumble in the end zone. Sophomore wide receiver Chase Kuerschen also had a pair of touchdown receptions, including a 10yard reception from backup quarterback Cooper Edenfield in the second quarter of the game. KCHS scored all 55 of its points before the halftime break. Meanwhile, Hardin Valley lost to Maryville 16-3 last week at home in a defensive District 4-AAA showdown. The Hawks, who have dropped two straight games, took an early 3-0 lead on Alan Grigsby’s 35-yard first quarter field goal. Hardin Valley (2-2, 1-1) and the Red Rebels (5-0, 2-0) were embroiled in a 3-3 tie in the
SCOTT Tpresents ATE
third quarter before Maryville, the defending Class 6A State Champion, scored 13 unanswered points in the third quarter. Hardin Valley will look to end a two-game losing streak Friday night. Catholic nabbed a 15-14 win in last year’s meeting between the two schools. The Warriors nabbed a 4121 District 4-AA win over Scott County last week and snapped a two-game skid. CAK (3-2, 1-1) erupted for 27 first-quarter points en route to knocking the Highlanders from the ranks of the unbeaten. Sophomore quarterback Cole Smith had another stellar outing as he went 29-for39 with 293 yards and three touchdowns. Wide receiver Baylor Caughorn had 13 receptions (including two touchdowns) and amassed 138 yards. Running back Michael Thompson had three catches for 89 yards and a score. CAK takes on Grace Christian tonight and the Warriors will look to avenge last year’s 27-13 loss to the
Rams. GCA is 4-1 this season and the Rams toppled Harriman 40-19 Friday night. Meanwhile, the Admirals (1-4 overall, 1-1 in District 4AAA) and Bulldogs (0-5, 0-2) will take this week off. The open date couldn’t come at a better time for Farragut and Bearden. The Ads will look to get healthy and BHS firstyear coach Morgan Shinlever said his team will get back to fundamentals. Farragut concluded a three-game homestand last week with a 49-30 loss to Class 5A State runner-up West High. The Ads were without several players. Cole Strange (who was ejected against Fulton) served a one-game suspension against the Rebels (3-1, 1-1). Clay Jolley, Michael Travis and Ben Hoffman all missed the West game due to concussions. Farragut, which lost running back Jeremiah Partin (dislocated elbow) early against the Rebels. He’ll miss at least three weeks. The Ads look to have Jolley, Hoffman, Travis and Strange

back when they return to action at HVA on Oct. 3. Against the Rebels, Jacob Naumoff had 324 passing yards and a touchdown. Junior running back Tanner Thomas rushed for 175 yards on a career-high 37 carries. Meanwhile, Bearden dropped a 23-13 district decision at Lenoir City last week. For the third consecutive week, the Bulldogs darted out to an early lead as Bryson
Ford returned the opening kickoff 95 yards for a TD. Bearden, however, was bitten by the turnover bug against the Panthers (2-2, 11). The Bulldogs had three interceptions and lost four fumbles Friday night in Loudon County. Bearden’s last touchdown was a scoring strike from Evan White to Skyler Hammett.

As Morning Pointe of Lenoir City celebrates five years in September, its staff reflects on its accomplishments during those years. “We’ve had some positive changes in the past five-and-ahalf years,” Pat Caron, regional vice president of operations for Morning Pointe that serves the Smoky and Cumberland regions in the state, said. “We are excited about the direction we are now going.” The assisted living facility, 198 Morning Pointe Drive, is owned and operated by Independent Healthcare Properties of Ooltewah and owned and operated by Greg A. Vital, president and CEO, and J. Franklin Farrow, chief operating officer. Independent Healthcare Properties also owns and operates The LANTERN: Alzheimers Center of Excellence, located next door to Morning Pointe of Lenoir City. “The need for memory care services continued to grow, and in May 2012, The Lantern, Alzheimers’ Center of Excellence, opened its doors,” Caron said, adding that facility has been in operation for two years. In the fall, Morning Pointe of Lenoir City developed, created and planted Daffodil Hill, she said. “As you drive up to Morning Pointe, we planted 1,000 daffodils,” Caron said, adding the hill is an ongoing project. “We partnered with Lenoir City Garden Club to do that,” she added. Also, Morning Pointe participates in memory walks and other similar events, Caron said. “There’s just an exceptional spirit of caring that gets transferred to residents and families,” she added. The facility celebrated its anniversary with an open house from 4 to 7 p.m., Tuesday, Sept. 9, at the Morning Pointe facility

Pat Caron, left, regional vice president of operations at Morning Pointe of Lenoir City, longtime resident Bleeka Miller, 101, seated right, and Miller’s daughter, Becky Howard, reminisce about the past five-and-a-half years.
“It [was] a big anniversary party,” Jenna Massa, community relations director for Morning Pointe, said. “We expect[ed] a big crowd.” The open house coincides with National Assisted Living Week, Sept. 8 through Sept. 12. Plans include music, food and fellowship. Vital and Farrow are scheduled to attend. While Morning Pointe of Lenoir City actually has been open for five-and-a-half years,
Caron said they chose to celebrate five years. While the facility cares for many residents past the age of 90, staff turns to Bleeka Miller, 101, who has been a resident of Morning Pointe since it first opened, when looking back on the five-and-a-half year. “She was the first one,” Massa said. “I dubbed her Queen Bleeka,” Caron said. “I don’t own a thing in this world except what’s in this
room, and that’s how I want it,” Miller said. “I feel like when I go to bed at night I got everything in order, as far as I know. “God can take care of the rest of it.” “We’ve all learned a lot from Bleeka,” Caron said, adding Miller still motivates and inspires many people.

Cork’s McElveen inducted into Jurade Farragut store owner one of only four U.S. citizens honored

Receiving a prestigious international induction into Jurade wine fraternity in Bordeaux, France — which dates back to the 1100s and adds only a few dozen new members worldwide each year — Ryan McElveen of Farragut was on-e of only four U.S. citizens honored during this ye-ar’s induction. McElveen, McElveen owner of Cork’s Wine and Spirits, 11668 Parkside Drive in Farragut, was inducted into Jurade Saturday, June 14. “I was surprised. It was very humbling,” McElveen, a certified sommelier since 1997 who got into the wine business in 1994, said. “When you stand in St. Somaliland, which is this ancient village in Bordeaux, and you’re
surrounded by all that tradition and all that kind of pomp and circumstance, it’s a very humbling honor. “Today the Jurade chooses individuals to become members of the Society based on the way that people promote the wines of Bordeaux,” McElveen, who has operated Cork’s since April 2013, added. “We at the store are very big proponents of Bordeaux. I would say that we probably have, if not the largest collection of Bordeaux in the state, certainly one of the largest.” As for motivation to promote Bordeaux wines, “We feel like they’re some of the best wines in the world; they offer some of the best values in the world,” McElveen said. “At any given time we have 50 to 60 different Bordeauxs. During my trip, it was a buying trip, I bought about 300 cases to bring back.” As for the ceremony, “It’s conducted in a 900-year-old church,” McElveen said. “Then all of Jurade are paraded through the streets, all of the inductees are paraded through the streets. … They read the names of the inductees and then they read the rights and privileges bestowed on them by the Jurade. “It’s more today a symbolic

honor. In the 1100s when it was started, it was created as a fraternity that was charged with insuring the quality of the wine … and protecting the trade routes from France to Britain because Britain had a large influence in that part
of France at the time,” McElveen added. “The fraternity was a semiclandestine organization that was charged with protecting quality and trade routes.” As for living Jurade members worldwide, “There’s probably
about 500 total worldwide,” McElveen said. “One of my importers approached me and asked me if I would mind being nominated. He nomiSee JURADE on Page 3B

Virtue Cumberland Presbyterian Church welcomes its new pastor, the Rev. Steven Graham, to its pulpit. Graham comes to Virtue Church, 725 Virtue Road, Farragut, from Fairfield Presbyterian Church in Blue Springs, Miss. “We’ve been without [a pastor] for about a year, so it’s exciting,” Virtue Church member Wilma
Waddell said. “I felt led to accept the call,” he said. “You get a feel for the people and the community. This is a wonderful community.” Graham has been a full-time pastor for 20 years. Virtue Cumberland Presbyterian is the sixth church Graham has pastored. In addition to Fairfield Presbyterian, he has pastored churches in Greenville and three in Kentucky: Campbellsville, Crayne and Franklin.

Free fire prevention demo Oct. 8 ■ TAMMY CHEEK
tcheek@farragutpress.com
Town of Farragut Fire Prevention Office, in conjunction with the Knox County Fire Pre-vention Bureau, will provide free fire safety demonstrations for residents and businesses during two sessions, from 10 to 11 a.m. and from 2 to 3 p.m., Wednesday, Oct. 8, at Farragut Town Hall, at 11408 Municipal Center Drive, across from Farragut Branch Post Office. Farragut homeowners can learn about fire safety during a workshop and safety demonstrations. “Having a fire extinguisher is part of a well-rounded fire safety
program for your home, but not understanding how it works, like any tool, you won’t be able to operate it in an emergency,” Colin Cumesty, fire inspector with Rural Metro Fire Department and town of Farragut Fire Prevention Office, said. Additionally, they will offer a workshop, Fire Safety and Prevention for Homeowners, between 6 and 7:30 p.m. Cumesty said the demonstrations feature the Fire Bureau's fire extinguisher simulator. Participants can attend at any time during the one-hour sessions. He added attendees do not have to be there the entire hour.
“The sessions are designed to allow people to come and go as their schedules allow but, at the same time, to get one-on-one instruction from a firefighter,” Cumesty said. “Participants will have the opportunity to safely practice the proper technique for extinguishing a liquid fire on the stove using a kitchen fire simulator,” he said. “The demonstration is designed to give you a safe opportunity to learn how to use the fire extinguisher correctly. “The whole point is not to have an increase in fires [in the Town],” See FIRE DEMO on Page 5B

7 steps to being a highly successful procrastinator 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 Pam get the f e e l i n g Young that you Make it HAVE to do Fun! it. Add to the distasteful thought of the task, by remembering how much you hated doing it or a similar job at another time. To complicate matters, see if you can actually become 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

nated me for induction,” McElveen added. “I filled out my application and sent in my résumé and I was selected.” Hearing he had won only about three weeks prior to the induction ceremony, “I was scrambling to get an airline ticket and clear my schedule,” McElveen said. Dana McElveen, Ryan’s wife and Cork’s co-owner “and the brains behind the business,” accompanied her husband to France. “We really want to bring a little bit more awareness to not just Bordeaux but international wines in general in East Tennessee,” McElveen said.
that could happen if you did do what you’re putting off. Think up some excuses why you can’t do the job right now. This will make you temporarily feel better. Let your right brain come up with an alternative activity. It’ll definitely give you something else to do. Something you WANT to do. Start doing the alternative activity, while keeping in the back of your mind the job you should be doing. This’ll 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. 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 is 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. Of course you could always just set a timer for fifteen minutes and start that thing you don’t want to do and before you know it, it’ll be done.

Graham From page 2B
Capps, said. “I like to have someone up front, energetic.” The church’s pulpit committee recommended Graham. “Our system is a call system,” the new pastor said. He submits his personal information form online, churches read that form, ask if he is interested then he goes through the interview process. The pastor said the timing was good, as his daughter, Kennedy Faith Graham, graduated from high school, making Steven and Wanda Graham empty nesters. “So we can pretty much go where we want to,” he said. “I think it’s wonderful,” Wanda Graham said. “I’m just glad to be here.” Herman Waddell, a pulpit committee member, said what impressed the committee about Graham was his spirit. “He’s led by the Spirit,” Herman Waddell said of the pastor. “We were looking for energy and someone filled with the Holy Spirit, and we found him,” Herman Waddell added. “We thought, ‘This is it.” Herman Waddell said Graham’s accepting the pastor position with Virtue Church was “a God thing.” Within two weeks after the pastor accepted, his wife, a special education teacher, found a position with West Hills Elementary, and they found a home off Thornton Drive. “We came from a small community to a developing larger one, so it’s different, but it’s nice,” Graham said. The Grahams are originally from Western Kentucky. They also have a son, Elijah Darden, and daughter, Andrea Hester. The pastor spent four years on active duty with the U.S. Marine Corps. He owned and operated Graham Construction between 1978 and 1993, graduated from Austin Peay State University in 1993 with a Bachelor of Science degree in English and history and graduated from Vanderbilt Divinity School in 1999. Graham said he wants to bring a sense of the Holy Spirit and renewal to Virtue Church and he wants to merge that with needs of the community. “The church’s mission is to sup-

Cumesty added. “Fires can be one of the most devastating emergencies any family can experience. And, a fire in a home can be both a financial and an emotional tragedy. “Knowing what has the potential to increase your fire risks and what you can do to reduce those risk factors is important,” he said. Cumesty said in 2013 there were three fires with a total reported insurance loss of $150, but none of those were building fires in the Town limits. For this year, so far there have been 26 fires, of which three were building fires. The total reported insurance loss for the 26 fires was $41,083, the fire inspector said, adding the three building fires amounted to a loss of $23,323.

The workshop also will address open burning outside the home and burn permits. “[Open burning is] the most popular way of removing debris,” he said. While some open burning is legal, there are restrictions, he added. During the workshop, homeowners can learn when they need a permit and how to get one, he added.

FPS 23rd Annual Fall Festival Oct. 18 ■
Green Earth From page 2B
Farragut public relations coordinator, said. “We hope folks will come out and have a good time and talk about our amenities at the outdoor classroom,” Jason Scott, Farragut stormwater coordinator, said. “The real idea is to get people to come out, be active and explore natural amenities here.” “Green Earth, Blue Skies celebrates Farragut's commitment to providing quality public lands in our community and East Tennessee region,” Riemann said, adding the Town offers more than 150 acres of public lands within its 16 square miles, including parks, open space and greenways. The event starts with a ribbon cutting at 1 p.m. for the Town’s outdoor classroom, then it will feature a variety of activities for youth and adults, she said. The event includes “Kids in the Creek,” hosted by Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation Division of Water Resources at Founders Park, to show how to identify biological indicators of water quality; a rainwater harvesting presentation by Rainwater Resources; the Izaak Walton League’s leading a guided trail walk through the park, and the city of Knoxville’s presentation, “Urban Forestry.” Additionally, various nonprofit organizations and groups, such as the town of Farragut Stormwater Matters and Sustainability, Fort Loudoun Lake Association, Keep Knoxville Beautiful and Tennessee Clean Water Network, will distribute information on protecting the environment, Riemann said. Other children’s activities will include a geocaching adventure, scavenger hunt and make-and-take crafts, she said, adding Dale’s Fried Pies is slated to provide sweet treats. The event coincides with the Town’s new outdoor classroom. Scott said this water quality demonstration space — featuring permeable pavers, rainwater harvesting and activity areas — will be used for handson community projects. The idea behind Green Earth, Blue Skies is the Town’s partnering with groups in the community, such as schools and Boy Scouts, and individuals who have ideas for using the space, he said. Some of those ideas can range from planning events to comparing different grasses or spring clean-ups leading to making epic sculptures from items found during the cleanups, Scott said

Jim Dunn, owner and president of J & D Excavating and Contracting Inc., works on finishing touches to Farragut’s outdoor classroom, such as placing a handicap sign in the parking area so the site will be ready for the Town’s Green Earth Blue Skies National Lands Day event.
“We are open to different ideas for projects,” he said. A complete schedule of Green Earth, Blue Skies events is available at townoffarragut.org/publiclandsday. Additional parking will be available at Farragut Primary School.

For the 23rd year, Farragut Primary School’s Parent-Teacher Association presents the school’s annual Fall Festival. This year’s event is scheduled from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday, Oct. 18, at FPS. The event is communitywide and open to the public. “Our fall festival committee is up and running,” Gina Byrd, FPS principal, said. “They’re raring to go. It’s awesome to see.” “We are very excited and are looking forward to another great fall festival,” Marshanda Pinchok, chair of this year’s event, said. Pinchok said there will be food, crafts, a silent auction, bake sale and inflatables for all ages of children. She added the event also will have several food vendors from area businesses. Additionally, FPS secondgraders will sing and children in various grades will demonstrate karate, she said. “The event always brings a lot of people and proves to be the PTA’s largest fundraiser,” she said. “We are very grateful for the many community businesses sponsoring this event.” Pinchok said PTA members hope to raise $30,000-plus with the Fall Festival this year.
That money goes to PTA-sponsored programs, such as the school health clinic, new technology, FPS’s library and much more, she said. Byrd said the school is looking at updating its technology, such as teachers’ computers and projectors. “Since we have so many teachers, we have had to split up who gets their computers updated each year,” Byrd said. “We also have active boards and projectors, and unfortunately the projectors are between six to eight years old. We’ve had to start replacing those, and they cost about $500 each. “We also make sure our encore teachers — music, art, P.E. and computer lab — get extra money to help them with their classes,” Byrd added. Another priority, she said, is English Language Learner after school programs. “Since the ELL population has increased, we need money for after-school programs for them as well,” Byrd said. Last year, Pinchok said the school raised $35,000 for five hours of play. “We have hundreds of parent volunteers and community volunteers who make this event possible,” she said. Also, the PTA has about 20 parent committee planners.
