Zoning workshop meets resident opposition ■
TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com
Grigsby Chapel Road residents continue their protests against TDK Construction’s request to rezone a parcel of property located next to Chapel Pointe off Grigsby Chapel Road to R-6, a zoning change that allows multifamily housing or apartments. While Farragut Municipal Planning Commissioners took no action during its meeting Thursday, Nov. 20, members heard from about 80 residents who spoke against TDK Construction’s rezoning request. “It’s an intrusion, incompati-

apartments on the property but following a Sept. 24 meeting with residents, he said he applied for the rezoning to build a senior living facility instead. During that residents’ meeting, Bradley asked if they would agree to a senior living facility, and a number of residents said “yes.” However, residents objected to the R-6 zoning during the meeting Nov. 20, saying the developers could put anything on the site. “When you rezone to a different [zoning] district, someone can do whatever is permitted in

Farragut Business Alliance kicked off its annual Shop Farragut Holiday Campaign Saturday, Nov. 22, but it is not too late for businesses to register to participate. This year’s campaign takes place now through Wednesday, Dec. 31, Allison Sousa, executive director of FBA, said. Businesses can go to the FBA website at FarragutBusiness.com to register. Participation in the campaign offers free promotion for Farragut businesses with a Farragut business privilege license, Sousa said. Businesses get free advertising such as additional signage, while shoppers can benefit from deals, coupons, specials and events these businesses offer. Sousa said the campaign’s purpose is to draw attention to Farragut’s businesses, encourage residents to “shop locally” and draw people from the region to Farragut to shop, eat and take advantage of services. “I think there are a lot of people who don’t know what we offer in Farragut, and by highlighting the Farragut businesses, we allow the opportunity for community growth and a hometown feel,” Darla Berdal, FBA Board chairman, said. For the first year, the campaign includes a new event, Men’s Night Out Thursday, Dec. 18. While participating businesses will start their specials at 5 p.m., closing times may vary, Sousa said. “Men’s Night Out is an opportunity for the business community to take the labor out of holi-
that district,” Mark Shipley, Farragut community development director, said. “He may want a senior living facility but he could do anything.” Town attorney Tom Hale said the Town could place deed restrictions on the property to restrict how the property is used. “This is a legitimate thing to think about,” Hale said. “It is done by municipalities all over.” Another concern residents had was traffic. Bradley hired engineering firm Cannon & Cannon Inc. to conduct a traffic

Farragut families are invited to enjoy holiday lights, music and fellowship during the fourth annual “Light the Park.” Farragut Business Alliance and town of Farragut are ushering in the holiday season with the fourth annual event, presented by TDS. The event is scheduled from 6 to 7 p.m., Monday, Dec. 1, at Founders Park at Campbell Station, formerly Campbell Station Park, off Campbell Station Road. “This is our warmest, fuzziest, most sentimental event,” Allison Sousa, executive director of FBA, said. “It’s the perfect way for families to kick-off the Christmas season or whatever holidays they might celebrate. “Even though this event is only an hour long, it creates memories that will last a lifetime,” Sousa said. “Be sure to bring your camera to take photos by the trees.” Farragut families experienced a drizzle of rain last year, so event organizers are hoping for good weather for this year’s event. “But, we will have hot coffee and cocoa to keep people warm,” she added. Despite the drizzle, the event drew a crowd of at least 500 last year, Sue Stuhl, Farragut Parks and Leisure Services director, estimated. This year, Sousa said organizers are anticipating more than 500. Light the Park will feature 60 trees and more than 36,000 lights to be illuminated.

School Board looks at ‘balanced calendar’ option ■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
Consideration for moving Knox County Schools to a Balanced Calendar, also loosely known as “year-round school,” got its first serious look during a Work Session of Knox County Board of Education Wednesday evening, Nov. 19. A Balanced Calendar, which has been adopted by Oak Ridge, Maryville and Alcoa city schools, basically shortens summer break and starts its first of four school year quarters in latter July while also adding longer fall, spring and winter/holiday breaks. “A balanced calendar is something that a number of parents and students and teachers and staff and administrators have expressed some interest in,” Dr. Jim McIntyre Jr., KCS superintendent, said. He added there has been “some potential concerns” also expressed. “… But I think the real value in a balance calendar is the extended learning opportunities” for academically struggling
students who could, during the fall and spring seasonal breaks, go back to school and work to catch up. “I frankly don’t have a strong preference for either [balanced calendar or status quo] at this point,” Karen Carson, 5th District Board representative (representing all four Farragut public schools among the seven in her district), said. “My interest is more in finding the best way to get input from students, input from employees, input from businesses; it greatly affects many different businesses and the hours that they operate.” The Board looked at different “models” of a Balanced Calendar. Dr. John Bartlett, principal at Bearden High School who emphasized he’s a Balanced Calendar proponent, said “probably the most popular” BC option is four 44 or 45-school day quarters (nine weeks), the first of which “starts somewhere at the end of July” with either two- or three week breaks (10 or 15
school days) in fall, spring and winter followed by either a roughly five-and-half week or eight-and-a-half week summer break — versus the current 11 weeks. Anticipated advantages and disadvantages of adopting a Balanced Calendar, which if adopted would not take effect until the 2016-17 school year at the earliest (KCS officials said 2015-16 calendar already is set), also were outlined by the Board and Bartlett. “I think it is best for students as a whole. … if you have a week of intercession [during a break] for kids that are struggling to get them caught up immediately instead of waiting until summer school, you’ll have a lot less failures and a lot more student learning going on,” Bartlett said.
Moreover, “When you have a shorter summer break there is less learning loss for economically disadvantaged students that don’t have outside [learning] experiences during the summer, which reinforces the learn-
ing,” Bartlett added. A survey undertaken by The University of Tennessee in December 2013 found that roughly 55 percent of teachers See BALANCED on Page 4A

As for family vacation time windows shortened in summer, “Some parents would take advantage of the fact that they can go for a week to the beach in October when the rates are cheaper anyway,” Bartlett said.

They include hot cocoa and coffee provided by FirstWatch Daytime Café and Christmas cookies provided by VG’s Bakery. Scheduled performers include Concord Brass and First Baptist Concord Church Elevate Children’s Choir, a youth choir. Sousa said the children’s choir includes 100 members, so because the event is only an hour long, organizers are featuring those two groups only. “Rumor has it there may even be a special surprise visitor,” she added. Light the Park will offer a new feature this year, free 3-D glasses for children “to make the lights even more dazzling and fun,” Sousa said.

Sousa said. This year, it will take place Nov. 29. “The day encourages people to shop at small businesses on Saturday after Thanksgiving,” she said. “The single day has grown into a powerful movement, and more people are taking part than ever before.” Besides the Shop Farragut signs, businesses also can have four special events signs during the year, Sousa said. “Participation in the Shop Farragut campaign does not count against the four special
event signs allowed during the year,” she said. “Also, the usual $25 fee is waived during the holiday campaign.” The campaign is a partnership between FBA and town of Farragut, and exposure also includes extensive advertising using other media. “When the FBA incorporated and partnered with the Town, the program was handed off to us to manage,” she said. “Town funding still supports a good portion of the program’s advertising expenses.”
pers it’s a season of giving,” she added. Fleenor said The Pinnacle at Turkey Creek picked out the Mission of Hope because it is a good charity and it was kicking off its Blue Barrel campaign at the same time as the tree lighting.
“We thought it would be a good fit to do the events in conjunction with one another,” Fleenor added. The event was free to the public, although, the community was asked to bring in donations for Mission of Hope.

Mother and son, Sue and Jesse Boling, said they have been beyond blessed after bringing Cranberry Hollow to Farragut. Jesse said the Farragut community has embraced them and their business, 12556 Kingston Pike, since it moved to the area Nov. 8, 2013. Prior to that, Cranberry Hollow, initially launched in 2003 by Sue and her husband, the late John Boling, was located in Lenoir City for five years. “This month, we are celebrating our first anniversary in our new location,” Jesse said, adding people can expect the same friendly, homespun surroundings. “About 70 percent of the [store’s merchandise] is American-made,” he said. “We have several items that are made locally, from honey to jewelry.” For former customers, he said the store still has the same family feel the Lenoir City location had. To the Bolings, the people who walk through Cranberry Hollow’s doors are more than customers — they are family, Jesse said. “[Sue and his late father] just loved their customers and considered them their extended family,” he added. Jesse said they chose Farragut because the area is growing. “We’re still centrally located

Executive Park Drive, Knoxville, was established seven years ago by Farragut area residents Jeff Hubrig Sr. and his wife, Ellen Hubrig. “We developed a technology platform to treat fluid waste,” Jeff Hubrig Jr. said. “The first type we are starting with is fluid medical waste. We’re starting [with] commercial products in fluid medical waste. “So, in 2016, our first product will go to market,” he added. “It’s an on-site disinfectant system that allows infectious fluid medical waste to be treated onsite in a cost-effective manner.”

The company is seeking to raise a $3 million Series A round of funding to support the commercial launching of its Gauntlet Disinfectant System in 2016, Hubrig said, adding the company has raised $650,000. The presentation arose out of a statewide competition Innovasan won Oct. 21 at the Life Science Tennessee’s Venture Forum in Nashville. “Five companies were selected from across the state to pitch to a panel of five venture capital partners,” Hubrig said.

Hubrig said the product is very cost-effective compared to currently available disposal methods. “Right now, the acceptable methods are to discharge infectious fluid medical waste down the drain into the municipal sewer system or to solidify the waste on-site and transport it to an incinerator, landfill or autoclave,” he said. ”But, there’s no overarching federal mandate to treat the waste. “The regulatory scenario varies on a state-by-state basis,” Hubrig said. “That comes back to the fact there is no cost-effective way to

After 57 fouls, Ads win at Bradley ‘Confidence’ woes for 0-3 FHS girls
■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
CLEVELAND — With 57 fouls whistled in its second game of the season, Farragut’s boys improved to 2-0 when its senior point guard protected the ball late and sank free throws. Keegan McGuire converted seven of eight free throws in the final four minutes — nailing 12 of 16 for Admirals 59 the game Bears 54 — which were critical to a 59-54 Ads win at Bradley Central in the Bears’ season opener Friday night, Nov. 21. “It was very physical, the refs did a great job. They called it real tight, kept the hands off,” McGuire, who scored a team-high 16 points, said about the victory. “I think we played really well. I think we had to be strong with the ball and hit free throws. “That’s what won the game for us was free throws.” Tied 10Bearettes 54 10 after Lady Admirals 28 one period, the Admirals built an eight-point second quarter lead and took a 2318 edge to halftime. An 11-3 Bradley run, led by wings Daniel Clark (game-high 20 points) and Tucker Maroon (six 3-point field goals, 18 points) put the Bears up 29-26. A 10-1 FHS run turned the tables for good, led by a basket plus a steal and two free throws

from junior wing Luke Janney. It was 36-30 Admirals after three quarters. Playing in just his second ever high school varsity game, “It was tough at first, but it’s not too bad. I’ve got a good team to help me,” Janney, who scored 13, said. Bradley closed to within two, 49-47, on a Maroon three-point
basket with 2:12 left. A lay-up and two critical defensive rebounds from senior post Ty Allen, one of four FHS posts battling foul problems, pushed Farragut’s lead to 55-47 with 39.5 seconds remaining after a Janney basket and free throw (three-point play). McGuire and Allen went 4-of-4 at the line in
the final 11 seconds. Allen ended with eight points, guard Drew Driscoll six and posts Matt Eggert and Will Doerger four each. Alexander Rather, Alex Long and David Dawson each scored two. “I’m proud of the fact that we got the win, because in years past we would have found a way
to loose that game,” FHS head coach Chris Cool said. “… We played really well. Our kids played hard. “We’ve only got three guys with varsity experience even though we’ve got nine seniors,” Cool added. “Some of these situations See FARRAGUT on Page 3B

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
A matter-of-fact Bearden boys basketball victory included a special performance by a Mark Blevins-coached Bulldog. Leading BHS to a 70-48 home victory Bulldogs 70 against Cougars 48 Campbell County, 6foot-5 junior post Jason Smith scored 38 points while raking down 23 rebounds — almost single-handedly holding off a Cougars third quarter rally with his inside scoring and boardwork in this Thursday, Nov. 20, game. “I think that’s one of the two best performances we’ve had as far as rebounds and points,” Blevins said about his 21 seasons as BHS varsity boys head coach, which has included six trips to the TSSAA Class AAA State Tournament.
Coming off a 58-55 home victory against Jefferson County two days before, Bearden improved its record to 4-0. “They came out and they pressed, and we were having trouble at first finding out how to beat it,” Smith said about Campbell County’s rally. “But personally, for me, I was just trying to come out after halftime and get my legs back under me.” About his 23 rebounds, seven of those offensive, “I just did my best to get my position, get the board and get the outlet [pass] to Quez [Fair],” Smith added. Senior wing Jake Elkins scored 14 for Bearden. Sam Phillips added eight and Fair six. Meanwhile, Justin Underwood’s BHS girls were coming off a 22-point home loss to Jefferson County while playing without starting junior guard/post Chanler Geer, out with a foot injury.
However, a strong second half from junior post Anajae Stephney, who scored a gamehigh 22, 15 points from junior point guard Holly Hagood and stout defense added up to a 58-39 victory against CCHS. “Chanler Geer was hurt and she was Lady Bulldogs 58 one of, Lady Cougars 39 like, our leading scorers. And so, coach Underwood told me that we had to step up,” Hagood said. “We had to work a little harder,” said Stephney, who has bounced back from an ACL-meniscus-tear in her left knee that kept her out almost the entire 2013-14 season. Stephney took over in the second half inside. “It’s no secret, I think No. 30 down low [Stephney] made a huge difference,” Lady Cougars head coach Brad See BEARDEN on Page 3B

Hawks set record, win ‘fun game’ 121-114 Youthful HVA girls responding despite Cantrell knee injury
■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
With enough scoring prowess and depth, good teams can come back from a 14-point second quarter deficit — even against an explosive, undefeated opponent on the road. In a shootout to beat all shootouts raising eyebrows throughout East Tennessee, Hardin Valley Academy made school Hawks 121 history Tu e s d a y Hornets 114 night, Nov. 18, against Carter with a 121114 victory. “It’s absolutely one of the most fun games I’ve ever coached in my life … We had a blast. Guys just playing hard and getting after it,” HVA head coach Keith Galloway said after his team improved to 31. Using his entire 15-player bench, “The reason we won that game is because they got tired, I think, and they didn’t have the depth that we had,” Galloway added. Tyler Thompson, junior post, led Hardin Valley with 34 points. Senior wing Blaine Shockley added 21, junior forward Tyler Durden 19 and senior forward Jordan McCroskey with 13. “I think we broke our school record. It’s a great thing to be a part of, especially against a great team like Carter,” Thompson said about the 121 points. “They played hard, we played hard and it was a well-matched game and it was a fun game.” “I felt Tyler Thompson stepped up and made some lay-ups around the basket,” Galloway said. “They all played well.” Durden said, “It was pretty intense, I loved it.” About the 14-point second quarter deficit at 55-41, “I don’t think we were worried about it,” Durden added. “I think we all have heart, I knew we were going to come back.” Kelvin Jackson, Carter star forward, scored 28. “They’re the first ones to do it,” Jackson said about an opponent being able to match the Hornets basket-for-basket. Jackson added he was impressed that HVA “didn’t come out scared, didn’t come out afraid. They were playing against me and Jordan [Bowden, game-high 35 points], but they didn’t care.” Meanwhile, the Lady Hawks improved to 3-1 with a strong second half, especially with transition points earned after forcing turnovers, overcoming a 32-31 halftime deficit to win big, 69-50. Freshman starting post Abbey Cornelius — with big shoes to fill after senior star post Lacy Cantrell was lost for the season with an ACL/meniscus tear to her right knee — scored a team high

17 points while grabbing 11 rebounds. Senior wing Brooklyn Battle scored 14, senior guard Mandi Hylton 10 and sophomore post/guard Bekah Hampton nine. “Well, in the second half we just picked up our defensive intensity and we were able to score off of our defense,” Battle said. “The first half we kind of started off a little slow. But after halftime we were able to regroup and come out with some intensity and fire.” About her transition to high
school varsity, Cornelius said, “It’s been kind of hard, but my team has really helped me, like, transition smoothly into high school. “ L a c y, Lady Hawks 69 she’ll still be a big Lady Hornets 50 part of the team,” Cornelius added about having to step up. “I’m still going to look to her for advice and how to handle things. As a team we’re going to have to have a bunch of people step up and fill her spot.” “We came out of halftime with
more of a mindset that we wanted to try to get to the rim and push the ball a little bit more on offense,” HVA head coach Jennifer Galloway said. “And we were able to create some stuff off of our defense. Abbey was able to get some baskets for us, and she did a great job on the rebounds, especially in the second half. “And Mandi Hilton provided a spark for us just doing the little things,” Jennifer Galloway added, which included an uncontested put-back when Carter players
went to sleep during a missed free throw. “She was able to get that put-back, which was big momentum boost for us.” About dealing with the loss of Cantrell, “It can’t just be one person that’s going to step up and fill Lacy’s shoes. It’s going to have to be a combination of all of us,” the Lady Hawks coach said. “The last several games, Abbey has stepped up. Our other freshman, [guard] Lizzie Davis, has stepped up for us.”

Webb ‘D’ stops ECS; BGA next Warriors’ defense wears down at Alcoa after 14-7 halftime lead
■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
Holding Evangelical Christian School’s offense scoreless, Webb School of Knoxville football once again has Spartans 21 reached Eagles 7 t h e TSSAA Division II-A state championship game. Two short scoring runs and a 5yard touchdown pass from Brock Beeler, Spartans senior quarterback, were enough in a 21-7 state semifinal win at Faust Field Friday night, Nov. 21. Andrew Craig caught the TD pass. “Our front seven and our defensive backs have all played really well,” said Webb head coach Dave Meske, whose Spartans (9-3) are seeking the program’s fifth state

they’re put in, they’re not real calm yet. It’s kind of helter-skelter.” Individually, “Our guards played really well, Luke Janney, Keegan and Drew,” Cool said. “I don’t know how much I took them out tonight if any. I thought Will Doerger stepped up and did a some good things for us. I thought Matt Eggert stepped in there and did a few good things for us.” Farragut’s girls, however, fell to 0-3 after being blown out, 54-28.

Individually, “Brant Mitchell played an unbelievable game. He ran the ball well and he had a key interception as a linebacker,” Meske said. “Brock played great.” Battle Ground Academy, a team Webb edged on the road Oct. 10, is the Spartans’ state title game opponent in Cookeville Thursday, Dec. 4.

two-time defending Class 3A champ Alcoa (12-1) Friday night in the state semifinals at AHS, 3514. But not before CAK led the Tornadoes 14-7 at halftime while limiting star running back Jacquez Tyson to 13 yards. Tyson, however, broke loose in the second half and ended with 130 yards and three touchdowns. In slowing down Tyson, “We got a bunch of guys to the football,” Warriors head coach Rusty Bradley said. “Defensive line did a nice job of not getting blocked and penetrating. “Our guys just played hard, both sides of the ball,” he added. “Eventually there, late third quarter and fourth quarter physically they just wore us down.” CAK scored on a 1-yard run by Cole Welch and a 25-yard scramble by quarterback Cole Smith.
While labeling Bradley Central “a great program,” Lady Admirals head coach Jason Mayfield added, “Honestly, I don’t think we have a lot of confidence right now. … When we’re not shooting well we let it snowball. “Our main seven, eight girls are not bringing what they need to bring to the table.” However, Mayfield also said about the experience, “I’ll make us a better team in the long run.” Junior post Jaiden McCoy, a transfer from Webb, scored 10 to lead FHS. “It’s been a little bit difficult lately, we’re having a rough
time getting started and running some plays, but we’re getting along,” she said. “Hopefully we’ll be good in a couple of weeks.” Bradley Central freshman wing Bradley McCurdy ended with 24 points, nine rebounds, three steals and four assists in her first game as a Bearette. “She’s coming out there playing like a seasoned veteran,” Bearettes head coach Jason Reuter said.

Honeycutt, whose team fell to 1-3, said. Bearden improved to 3-1. “She created a huge match-up problem for us. She’s tough, she’s talented. … And her teammates around her, you can tell they know when to get her the ball.” Defensively, the Lady Bulldogs “did a really good job of not letting us get into our offense.”
“I think we played well in the second half,” Underwood said. “… I though Anajae did a fantastic job of finishing,” he added. “And then, also, Holly Hagood. We challenged her to step up and score. And she had a little run there in the third quarter, start of the fourth quarter where she had three of four steals in a row for us.” Trinity Lee, BHS freshman guard, scored eight.

Annual Cookie Walk, Craft Fair Dec. 6 Faith Lutheran Church organizers expect 9,000 cookies, thousands of one-of-a-kind crafts
■
TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com
Farragut and metropolitan area cookie lovers can grab their fill of homemade holiday cookies and shop for Christmas gifts when they attend the 13th annual Faith Lutheran Church Cookie Walk and Craft Fair. “We expect about 9,000 cookies this year,” Caroline Erickson, church member, said. This year’s event is slated to run from 9 a.m. to noon, Saturday, Dec. 6, in the church, at 225 Jamestowne Blvd., in Farragut. Church members make the cookies by hand and bring them to the church, where they fill trays from which shoppers will choose. “This annual event features thousands of homemade cookies and unique, one-of-a-kind handmade crafts,” Erickson said.
No reservations are required, but she advised it is best to arrive early as cookies sell out quickly. The doors will open at 8:30 a.m. to buy boxes and go to the craft fair, she said. “The cookie choosing will begin at 9 a.m. with 10 shoppers at a time.” The boxes cost $10 for a medium box and $15 for a large box, she said. “Customers choose the cookies to fill their own boxes,” she added. “The only requirement is that the lid has to close flat.” Proceeds will benefit the Shepherd of Hope Food Pantry, which has been open for two years, Erickson said. Erickson added the money will be used to purchase such items as canned meat, dry beans, peanut butter, canned fruit and vegetables, botSee COOKIE WALK on Page 7B

West Portrait Group keeps art alive ■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
Charter members of Barbara West Portrait Group from more than 15 years ago, Debbie Barnes and her daughter, Carrie Ellen Barnes of Concord fought to save the twice-weekly gathering of Farragut area artists. “My daughter and I decided to not let the group disappear when Barbara died in May 2011,” Debbie Barnes said. “… We had been doing art in her home for 12 years. So we started finding places to have the art class. My house is not really fixed to facilitate it.” The group “of about 20” meets 2 to 4 p.m., Wednesdays, at Holy Cross Anglican Church in Farragut, and 2 to 4 p.m., Saturdays, at Ball Camp Baptist Church. They also were part of “A Show of Their Work,” a group display of art in Farragut Town Hall Oct. 6-17. “Sometimes, when the church has an event, we meet in Farragut library, in their classroom,” said Debbie, who along with Carrie are “four or five” charter members of the group.

“We welcome anybody who wants to do portraits. We just let people come … we open it up. Classes are free. But you have to chip in money for the model. … We promise them $30 a gig,” Debbie said. Cost for each group
member at each meeting is $5 “if you’ve got it.” Moreover, if you pay the $5 “you own that image,” Debbie said. For more information on the group, See WEST on Page 8B

A $168 electronic device, courtesy of The Rotary Club of Farragut, is expected to help two Chinese students at Farragut Middle School realize their full potential. Farragut Rotary quickly responded to a request for an electronic translation device from Mary Sue Pruitt, FMS seventh-grade teacher, to help seventh grade students Xuyan Cheng and Alice Sun who were struggling with English. “We have a deficit in what is called our gap scores, and our English Language Learners are not advancing at the rate that our other learners are,” Pruitt said. “So we noticed that some of the ELL students that use electronic translators are able to
participate more in class. So we wanted the students who didn’t have access to one or resources to get one to have one. So the Rotary Club stepped in and is sponsoring one that these two Chinese students can use.” Alice and Xuyan are among 25 students, representing nine nationalities “and maybe a few more languages than that,” at FMS who currently attend an English as a Second Language class taught by Elizabeth Choi. These Chinese students were pinpointed for the electronic translators “because they have very limited English,” Pruitt said. “Alice and William are very bright students, they know the subjects we’re learning — in See DONATION on Page 7B

Farragut Presbyterian abound with musical talent ■
TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com
Children attending Farragut Presbyterian Church have found a musical outlet at the church. “We have a very musically talented church, and this church is very dedicated to music excellence as a vital part of how we worship,” Katina Sharp, Farragut Presbyterian’s director of children’s and youth ministries, said, adding there are children who play violin, piano, guitar and some sing. As director, Sharp is in charge of a range from nursery children to college adults totalling 30. Farragut Presbyterian’s children’s choir is ages 4-to-12, and the church has a pre-school music program, she said. “We’re in the process of starting a string orchestra because we have so many string players here,” Sharp said. Among those Farragut Presbyterian children who are active musically are Sharp’s sons, 10year-old Jackson, 9-year-old Ei, 6-year-old Aaron and 4-year-old Nolan. All four boys play the cello. Ei, Aaron and Nolan followed in the footsteps of Jackson, who started playing when he was 4. “When I was 3, I went to see the orchestra and I saw the cello,” Jackson said. His birthday was approaching,
so he started asking for a cello, Jackson said. “I was surprised he stuck with it,” Jackson’s mother said. “When he was 3, he asked me for a cello often enough. I finally got him one for his 4th birthday.” “I’ve been playing ever since,” Jackson said. “It’s definitely a lot of fun once you get into it.” When Ei saw Jackson playing the cello, he said he liked the sound so he wanted to play, too. “It’s pretty hard at first but it gets easier as you go along,” Ei said. “I thought it was fascinating that you move the bow across the strings and it makes music.” Aaron watched his older brothers play the cello and said he also liked the music, so he started playing. Nolan, the youngest, started playing last May. “I liked he way my brothers were playing the cello,” Nolan said. Their mother said in the music community, it is common to see
siblings play stringed instruments, but she added, “I don’t know of any families with four cellists.” “It’s very typical to go with a stringed quartet — two violins, one viola and one cello,” Katina Sharp said. “But, all my boys were drawn to the cello and fortunately they had wonderful teachers. “Music has always been extremely important to us, so even when they were little, we would take them to nursery music classes, musical demonstrations and children’s concerts,” Sharp added. Another set of musical siblings belongs to the pastor. Jacob Nieman, 10, sings, while his brother, Joey Nieman, 7, plays guitar and sings. “I think it’s terrific they have an interest in music,” the Rev. Matt Nieman said. “Music is something they can use and appreciate their entire lives and something they can share with

others.” The pastor said Joey started learning the guitar the beginning of the year, but both boys have been singing for a number of years. “Because they are preacher’s kids, they are at church all the time,” Nieman said. “By virtue of
that fact, they have been at the church singing.” He added his wife, Jennifer, also sings. While she is a pharmacist by trade, Jennifer’s undergraduate degree was in music. “She’s been singing since she was a kid, too,” the pastor said.

Donation Chinese,” Choi said. “And so they just need a tool that helps them get that content to English. Really, the knowledge is there.” “They need this extra tool because they’re moving at the same pace that everyone else is,” Pruitt said. “… Instead of spending 20 minutes explaining a concept they already know, they just don’t know they language, they’ll be able to instantly unlock that content by seeing the word in Chinese. “They will be here for one more year, so we hope they’ll continue to use it as they need it.” Whenever Xuyan and Alice “graduate” from ESL class, their electronic translator will be passed on to the next most English language challenged students. “We have many more ELL students than that,” Pruitt added about former students of Choi who have “tested out” and now speak and understand English well enough to no longer need the ESL class. In all, “at least 13” nationalities of current and former ELL students, “about 75,” attend FMS, Choi estimated. “Alice and Xuyan arrived this summer, new to the United States this year,” Choi said. Despite how far they have to go language-wise, “They’ve made a lot of progress,” Choi added. “They’re writing sentences in my class. And they studied some English in China.” However, “Studying it and coming and using it are very different,” Choi added. “Everything they studied they’re starting to unlock and use in their conversation and use in listening to teachers and listening to classmates.” About Rotary’s gift, “We are extremely grateful to them, our resources are limited,” Choi said. “… It’s a very generous donation from The Rotary Club [of Farragut] that recognizes, ‘Hey, these are two students who have

Turkey hangover got put in the pot to make turkey soup. Remember we tasted one after it had simmered for several hours and it had no taste?” “Yeah, I didn’t like it one bit! It was like chewin’ on a slug ‘cept I’ve never chewed on one, but it was all floppy and jellyish. Ick!” “So, now what Nelly? We’ve got to decide today, because you can’t keep turkey very long. Do you want any of it today?” “NO! I’m sick of turkey! I want something else, like steak or a po-rk chop. Don’t make me eat more turkey, please!” “Whoa, settle down, we won’t have turkey today! How ‘bout a little turkey soup though?” “NO! Please, I’ve had four cups of that soup and I’m done. Let’s dump it!” “Well, no, we can freeze it and have it in a couple of weeks. I think I’ll freeze the Ziplock bag of turkey too, because it’s still very tasty and I agree with you I’m also sick of turkey.” Thank heavens for freezers!
The feast is over and I won’t be going on that scale for a few more days. It’s Sunday and the family that traveled over the river and through the woods to visit “Grandma’s house” is back home and there’s a Ziplock bag in my fridge screaming at me to be creative with its contents: one dried out turkey leg, part of a wing and bits and pieces of light and dark meat. I gave most Pam of the turkey, all the Young gravy, drMake it essing, crFun! anberry sauce, rolls, mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes away in take home goody boxes for all my guests, but kept sort of a martyr bag of leftovers for us. Why’d I do that? Why didn’t I just get rid of all of it? I asked Nelly (my inner child). “So, are you the one who decided to keep some of the turkey when I was making up the “to go” boxes?” “Yep!” “Why’d you do that?” “Because I like the drumstick and I didn’t get to have one on Thanksgiving because you said the real kids would want them and then they didn’t even take one but Pa Pa Gary ate one.” “So, when you saw the one left you put it in the bag to keep.” “Yep! And I like wings too, especially the skin and now that we’re on this low carb diet thing we can eat all the skin on chickens we want and I knew we’d get to eat all the skin on the turkey so that’s why we’ve got a wing. What happened to the tips of the wings? I like that skin too!” “Well when Gary carved the turkey he broke off that part of the wings and then those tips
Branch of Knox County Library. The class was run by a teacher of the group, Gifford Nickolaides, out of West’s studio in her home. “After we went to his class, he started teaching classes at Barbara’s studio and that’s how we started on this journey,” Debbie said. Debbie and Carrie are lifelong artists. “I can’t ever remember not doing art,” Debbie said. Although not a moneymaking venture for either mother or daughter, Debbie said, “I’ve sold some things at Old Concord Gallery. Carrie’s sold more actual portrait work than I have. I just do mine and give it away more often than not.” Carrie, on the other hand, “She’s sold several babies. She’s done album covers for some of our friends’ CDs,” Debbie said of what is usually Carrie’s pastel and ink portraits.
West From page 4B
Because it’s dry, I’m going to grind up the leftover turkey in the Cuisinart and freeze it for use in a casserole next month, or add some mayo and make turkey salad. The turkey soup (broth) can be used anytime I need broth for many recipes I use, and it’s always nice to have a nice hot cup of broth as a pick-me-up in the afternoon on these cold winter days. I guess I’m really not a martyr with the bag of dry turkey, I’m really just a mom who’s sick of turkey for now. Once I get over this turkey hangover I know I’ll want turkey again.

call Debbie or Carrie at 865-6756339. Debbie said one regular group member “started two years” with some less than stellar work “that looked about sixth-grade,” having never previously done portraits. “You should see his work now, it is amazing. He wanted to draw, he had a desire in his heart but had worked all his life. … He’s retired now. He’s been coming two years and he looks like he’s been drawing for 50 years.” As for mediums, “I don’t do ink as much as Carrie does; I tend to play with color a lot,” Debbie said. Debbie and Carrie discovered Barbara West, an artist from California, after seeing an ad for a portrait drawing class at Tusculum College, Knoxville, displayed at Farragut
