As Farragut Board of Mayorand Aldermen prepared to passproposed ordinance changesregarding apartments, residentsliving around Grigsby ChapelRoad objected to having anotherapartment development underconsideration in the community.
Residents spoke out duringthe Board meeting Thursday,Sept. 11, in the Town Hall abouttraffic congestion, threat of over-crowding schools and loweringproperty values.
“I don’t think having moreapartments is always a goodthing,” Emma Bea Stallings, 425E. Fox Den Drive resident and arealtor, said. “No one is buying ahouse at any price range wherethere are apartments.
“It’s going to devalue the prop-erty values, and our traffic isgoing to be greater,” she added.“I don’t think we need to changethe ordinance. I don’t think weneed apartments. People don’twant our Town to change.”
Before residents spoke, MayorRalph McGill said, “What we aredoing tonight is not approving aplan for apartments — nobodyhas come to us with a plan forapartments.
“What we are doing is amend-ing an ordinance that deals withmulti-family, and some of thesechanges makes it even stricter.”
Board members had beforethem Ordinance 14-11, which
includes new requirements tothe Town’s ordinance; Ordinance14-12, which creates an overlaydistrict for properties with phys-ical limitations, and Ordinance14-13, which changes some park-ing and loading requirements forapartment developments.
Ultimately, the Board votedunanimously to approve all threeproposed ordinances on multi-family zoning on first reading.
Mul Wyman, 527 Wyndham HallLane, said he did not think theproposed number of units was acompatible land use for the westside of Grigsby Chapel Road.
“You are trying to squeeze in200 units on about 25 acres ofapproximately 34 acres,” he said.“The density is too high.” Hereferred to a concept plan by adeveloper Wyman said hereceived from another resident.
Beth Sells, 680 Chapel PointDrive, said residents she talkedto opposed any plans for apart-ments at Grigsby Chapel Road.She cited the density as well.
“It’s too much in too littlespace,” Sells said.
Ross Bradley, vice president ofdevelopment for TDK Develop-ment, said TDK was working on arequest for rezoning to R-6 andplans to go before FarragutMunicipal Planning Commissionwith that rezoning request. Hehas scheduled a meeting at 7p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 24, inTown Hall to meet with residentsand discuss those plans.
Bradley said the property is
An unofficial conceptual site plan for an apartment complex off Grigsby Chapel Road next toChapel Pointe subdivision was distributed to GCR area residents. No plans have been submittedto the Town for this complex.
BOMA opens door to possible apartment complex
across from Wyndham HallSubdivision.
“The whole site is 32 acres,” hesaid, adding TDK is looking atdeveloping 240 to 250 units onthe whole track.
Bradley said the apartmentswould be high-end with rentsstarting at $900. He added TDKis looking at traffic and densityand realize they are issues forresidents. He also said the devel-opment would have a 90-foot set-
back, compared to the Town’srequirement of a 35-foot setback.
“We are trying to do the rightthing with the neighbors,” headded.
Besides the density, Wymansaid he did not think GrigsbyChapel Road had the infrastruc-ture to accommodate peoplefrom another apartment com-plex.
“[Grigsby Chapel] was notdesigned and it was not built to
be an arterial street,” he said. Ann Ballard, 11627 Autumn
Glen Lane, said she also is con-cerned about the arterial flow oftraffic if apartments are built.
“I presume that was the origi-nal plan was in putting apart-ments near Dixie Lee Junctionand Watt Road,” Ballard said,then asked if the Town had ideasin mind of where else apart-

Thanks to “the wife” of aFarragut West Knox Chamber ofCommerce member a few yearsago, Dr. Bill Bass began his long-running series of gripping pre-sentations in front of FWKCC.
This world-renown forensicanthropologist and head of TheUniversity of Tennessee’s Anth-ropology Research Facility, alsoknown worldwide as The BodyFarm, once again will speak infront of what is anticipated to beyet another packed FWKCC audi-ence.
“Apparently he’s extremelypopular because we’re booked tosolid capacity,” Bettye Sisco,FWKCC president/CEO, said. “…Sometimes he brings bones.”
Bass is scheduled to make hislatest appearance during FWK-CC Breakfast Speaker Seriesstarting at 7:30 a.m., Tuesday,Sept. 30, in Fox Den CountryClub. The subject is scheduled tobe “Cremains,” which is all aboutcremation, Sisco said.
“The first time Dr. Bass came,one of our Chamber membersknew his wife and talked to hiswife and asked her if he’d beinterested and he was,” Siscoadded. “I had no idea he would
be so interesting. I knew aboutthe Body Farm, but having notlived here all of my life I certainlydidn’t know that much about it.And so I was very, very pleased.”
Examples of his storiesinclude “the Big Bopper and the[1959] plane crash that wasextremely interesting,” Siscosaid. “He’s extremely humorous.”
“I think one of the things thatwas most interesting to me then,and continues to be, is if any of hisformer students are there it’s likethey’re in there in class, com-pletely listening and engaged withwhatever he’s saying,” Siscoadded. “And they can’t wait tospeak to him at the end.
“Not only is he an incrediblysmart man, an educated man,but he is well-loved by his stu-dents and friends alike. … Hetakes the time for people whorespect him.”
Looking back on his appear-ances, “Probably the first two orthree times Dr. Bass came, hecame alone and used slides andtold us different stories. Differ-ent things that had happened,different cases that he had beenon,” Sisco said about a man “whohas authored or co-authoredmore than 200 scientific publica-tions as well as his criticallyacclaimed memoir about his
career at The Body Farm.“And then he began writing
books with Jon Jefferson. It justso happened that he scheduledus to be the first group to speakto on the days the book was goingto come out,” she added aboutBass, also honored as NationalProfessor of the Year by NationalCouncil For Advancement andSupport of Education. “The lastfew times that’s when he’s come:on the day that his [newest]book is coming out. He’d talkabout the book, and JonJefferson would come along.
“They’d talk more about thebook than they would his studiesand his work. Jon Jefferson isthe storywriter and Dr. Bass isthe educator. … They writetogether as Jefferson Bass.”

As an apprentice-type learn-ing experience building toward acareer in politics or civic leader-ship, would students at FarragutHigh School or Hardin ValleyAcademy take advantage of“shadowing” town of Farragutemployees, office holders orcommittee members?
A new member of FarragutSchools Education RelationsCommittee, herself a former FHSParent Teacher Student Organ-ization president, thinks theanswer is yes.
“Would it be feasible for any ofthe community groups at Farra-gut High School to be in charge ofan activity?” Lee Wickman, SERCmember, asked during the com-mittee’s latest meeting Tuesdayafternoon, Sept, 2, in Town Hall.
For example, “They would loveto do [Freaky Friday] in the Park,that would be just so right uptheir alley,” Wickman added. “Iguarantee you these kids couldhandle it, and they would enjoy it.
“Anything you need a volun-teer for, I think they can proba-bly handle it,” Wickman added.“… You talk about resources,they all need volunteer hours.”
Later in the meeting, Wickmanemphasized the “apprentice” pro-gram should have “something
with some meat in it” to avoidboredom. “There’s nothing that ateenager hates worse than feelinglike their time is wasted. … It hasto be meaningful work.”
Attempting to clarify SERC’smission, as defined by Board ofMayor and Aldermen, in creatinga Town apprenticeship link withlocal high school students wasGary Palmer, Town assistantadministrator.
“From the conversations I’ve hadwith David Smoak, the Town man-ager, coming from the Board,they’re wanting this committee totake it and run with it and comeback to the Board with a recom-mendation for elements of the pro-gram,” Palmer said. “A framework.”
“I believe the link that they’relooking to establish with thiscommittee is to the schools to tryto increase a relationship withthis program to involve the youthmore in the town of Farragut.”
Palmer said about giving stu-dents “responsibilities” withinone of the Town’s committees, “Ithink that would be very benefi-cial. I don’t know if we have theability to do that.”
Carla Werner, committeemember, said FHS “has somekind of program now” withFarragut West Knox Chamber ofCommerce. “There’s a studentfrom Farragut that works at theFarragut Chamber periodically.”

Andre Sterling, a formerFarragut High School stud-ent/athlete whose rushing skillswith the Admirals varsity foot-ball team earned him aSoutheastern Conference schol-arship, was killed in a single-vehicle crash early Wednesdaymorning, Sept. 10.
Sterling, an employee atLakeside Tavern in Concord, was24.
“At approximately 1:11 a.m.officers responded to a single-vehicle crash on the ramp fromwest I-140 to east I-40. Whenofficers arrived on the scenethey discovered a single vehicleoff the roadway. The male driverof the 2001 Acura had beenejected and was pronounceddeceased on the scene,” DarrellDeBusk, Knoxville PoliceDepartment Public Informationofficer, stated in a press release.
“It appears speed and alcoholwere factors in the crash. …,”DeBusk’s report added. “The ini-tial investigation by the KPDFatal Accident InvestigationUnit indicates a 2001 Acura wastraveling on the ramp from I-140to I-40 at a high rate of speed.The left tires of the vehicle wentoff the pavement causing thedriver to overcorrect. The vehi-cle then went off the right sideof the road, down an embank-
ment and flipped several times.“The driver was not wearing a
seatbelt and was ejected fromthe vehicle.”
Eddie Courtney, FHS varsityfootball head coach, said aboutSterling, “Not only was he agreat football player, but just atremendous young man. It’s sucha tragedy for his family and ourfootball program and everybodythat knew Andre that he wouldpass away certainly at a youngage.”
An All-state running back,Sterling ended his Admirals careerwith 5,989 yards rushing and 72touchdowns in four seasons —2,784 of those his senior seasonthat included 29 touchdowns.
“He’s certainly one of the bestwe’ve had in the 30 years I’vebeen here,” Courtney said. “Thething about him, he was a veryphysical, tough running backthat always got positive yardsafter contact. And his ability tohold onto the football; he didn’thave many fumbles in his career.
“He was always, during agame, saying to me, ‘Coach, whatelse can I do?’” Courtney added.“If we needed a first down or weneeded a touchdown, he’dalways say, ‘Coach, don’t worry,I’m going to get it done.’ Most ofthe time he did.”
The 5-foot-10, 200-poundSterling originally signed withthe University of MississippiFeb. 6, 2008, with his immediate
family and FHS coaches part ofthe ceremony.
Sterling’s career at Ole Miss,however, never got off theground after being indefinitelysuspended from the Rebelsteam. He was charged with driv-ing under the influence anddriving the wrong way on a one-way street in Oxford, Miss., Feb.28, 2009, then Oxford PoliceDepartment Sgt. Terry Hawkinssaid.
“I hope that people will notjudge Andre based on the way ofhis death,” Courtney said. “Iknow that Andre had been work-ing through some personalissues, and I know his parents,Linda and Jack, have been sup-porting him fully through thesethings.
“All of us realize that we haverelatives where we need to bethere and support and trustthem through difficulty,” Court-ney added. “I hope that peoplewill remember Andre like weremember him: as a fine youngman and a gifted athlete.”
Sterling began his collegecareer at Hargrave MilitaryAcademy (Va.), where he playedhis freshman season in fall 2008before heading to Oxford.

Citizen health • Well, considering futureTown themes and ideas, couldthe Board [of Mayor andAldermen] consider the RussellHouse be renovated into theCampbell Station Inn? If a sim-ple, modern kitchen were addedon and some improvementsmade with old type furnishingand decorations and costumes ofthe period were used, I betFarragut could end up with adestination restaurant. I know Imade a point of going to the tav-erns and the inns when I was inWilliamsburg and historicalPhiladelphia. Just an idea.
• In response to a letter to theeditor last week, it’s true thatKingsgate Road and MidhurstRoad have a huge problem. Trashbins, mailboxes, driveways, flow-ers and plants have been set onfire. Even when damage hasbeen significant, insuranceclaims been made, the [KnoxCounty] Sheriff’s [Office] doesnot let you file a report. Theydon’t seem to have any interestor concern with this problem. Ibelieve this individual’s actionsare indeed escalating. Whenthey set fires to our property itcould very easily go so wrong, abit of wind could cause a houseto burn down or lives could belost. It’s very scary and veryunsafe. Neighbors, please lock
your homes when you are out inyour yard mowing or playing.This individual might easily gofrom destroying things outside toentering your home. It’s any-body’s guess how tragic thatmight turn out.
• I’d like to give a big shoutout to local businesses who sup-port out local schools. Especially[those] that support our ladysoccer team by providing lunch-es for the girls. With so muchnegativity going on, I though itwas nice to say, thank you, fordoing something positive for ourcommunity.
• When did the turn lanes inthe middle of the road becomeaccelerating lanes? I don’t knowhow many times I’ve been almosthit head-on by cars zoomingdown the turn lane with the driv-er looking backwards to see ifthey can merge into traffic anddon’t even see me sitting thereto turn. Then there are the vehi-cles preventing me from gettinginto the turn lane by racingbeside me to merge into traffic.The turn lane is supposed to be aturn lane, not an acceleratinglane.
• Once again today, Saturday,Sept. 13, I was driving west-bound on Turkey Creek Road andhad to slow as I met two east-bound vehicles in my lane pass-
ing a bicycle riding right in themiddle of the eastbound lane.The second vehicle must havesaid something or honked at thebicycle because the rider [madean obscene gesture] as the carwent by. Do we have to wait untilsomeone is hurt or killed beforeFarragut bans bicycles on TurkeyCreek, Virtue Road and anyother main roads (is that evenlegal?). By the way, there aresidewalks almost all the waydown Turkey Creek. Any othervehicle without a license plate(tricycle, motorized lawn moweror even a person walking) goingdown the middle of those sameroads would be ticketed orarrested.
• This is for the family thatwas so obnoxious in [a TurkeyCreek Mexican restaurant] onThursday night, Sept. 11. Afteryou left, every single waitresscame over and thanked me forsaying something to you aboutyour loud, rude and obnoxiouschildren and then they thankedme for not saying anything to youafter you were rude enough tocome by and start making smartremarks to me. People don’tappreciate you or your children.Please keep your monkeys athome until they’ve learned howto behave in public … and youtoo.
Tennessee is one of the beststates in the country to live,work and to raise a family, butone area where we fall short isthe health of our citizens.
Tennessee is consistently oneof the bottom 10 states when itcomes to health rankings.Nearly one-third of our citizensget nop h y s i c a le x e r c i s eon a regu-lar basis.T h i r t y -four per-cent ofT e n n e s -seans areclassifiedas over-w e i g h t .One inf o u rT e n n e s -s e a n ss m o k e s ,and one in five high school stu-dents smokes.
Altogether, our health prob-lems cost us more than $6 billionevery year. One of the most trou-bling facts is that children inTennessee now have a shorterlife expectancy than their par-ents.
These are all things we have tochange. The good news is thatwe can make significantimprovement with some simpleapproaches.
Last year, we announced aprogram called HealthierTennessee and established theGovernor’s Foundation forHealth and Wellness to workwith communities across thestate to move the needle onhealthier outcomes for Tennes-seans. A lot of great work hasbeen done through the founda-tion in working with local busi-nesses, community organiza-tions, and citizens.
Just last month, the founda-tion announced that 73 busi-nesses and institutions acrossTennessee have been namedHealthier TennesseeWorkplaces. Those workplacesare the first to receive awards ina program that recognizes organ-izations that encourage andenable employees to live health-ier lifestyles. The winners
ranged from automobile manu-facturers to local governments.
The workplaces have all certi-fied that they do the following:
• Encourage and enable phys-ical activity
• Offer healthy eating optionsat work
• Provide a tobacco-free envi-ronment
• Encourage and enableemployees to monitor theirhealth through risk assessments
• Reward and recognizeemployees for participating
Businesses that would like tobecome recognized in the futurefor promoting healthierlifestyles among their employeescan apply atwww.healthiertn.com/work-place.
In state government, we havea program called Working for aHealthier Tennessee, where theidea is for state employees to notonly get healthier but to set anexample for other Tennesseans.State employees, working withwellness councils, have beeninvolved in various good-naturedcompetitions in an effort toimprove health. That effort isongoing.
Earlier this year, theFoundation for Health andWellness launched an onlineworkplace wellness toolkitcalled Small Starts @ Work tohelp employers implement well-ness programs. The toolkit, avail-able at www.healthiertn.com,provides employers with tips andideas on how to help employeesget healthier together.
The Governor’s Foundation onHealth and Wellness has otherpromising programs to an-nounce in the near future,including activities for students.They are doing great work, and Iam grateful for their continuedinnovation and efforts.
We all have a role to play inimproving the health of ourstate. Good health applies athome, at play, and at work. Weneed a culture of wellness inTennessee if we are truly to be agreat state. We can all benefitfrom a healthy Tennessee.

Jackson rammed three KnoxCounty Sheriff’s Office cars andattempted to run over severalofficers. That’s when officersopened fire, hitting Jackson. Hedrove into a subdivision onMountain Mist Road tearing
through a backyard and comingto a stop only when he came to awooded area.
Rural Metro transported Jacksonto UTMC where he later died.
A white female, who was in thevehicle, was taken into custodyand is being questioned.
Officers had been looking forJackson since the Aug. 16 inci-

ments could go.Mark Shipley, Community
Development director, saidmedium-density residential andmixed-use Town center districtscould be good candidates.
However, Shipley said anyoneproposing an R-6 zone has tohave property fronting an arteri-al road, such as Kingston Pike,Concord Road and CampbellStation Road. He said part ofGrigsby Chapel from Fretz Roadto Campbell Station is minor
arterial as well.“I’m wondering if you had con-
sidered putting something inthat would restrict the numberof apartment [complexes] in afuture area so that there aren’tso many,” Pauline Hamilton, 608Farragut Commons, said.
“All that kind of informationand review would come in thereview for an individual zoningrequest,” Shipley said. “That’spart of why zoning map has togrow through a rigorous processin the Town.”
Smithfield resident HowardPrimer, who owns rental property,
said he thinks multi-family resi-dents have been a significant partof the housing stock in America.
“The biases [concerning apart-ments] do not exist, especiallyhigh-end apartments,” he said.
A couple of residents comment-ed proposed rezoning for apart-ments could be “slipped by” them.At that, Alderman Ron Honkensaid he resented the accusation,which he felt was inappropriate.Honken added he has seen noplans for apartments.
McGill challenged residents tofind a municipality that wasmore transparent than Farragut.

the state and you put them onthe [HVA] 35-yard-line, or inside,like we did tonight, they're goingto score a consistent amount ofthe time,” said Hawks headcoach Wes Jones, whose teamfalls to 2-1. South-Doyleimproves to 3-0.
“They scored every single timethat they had the ball downthere. That's four scores andthat's pretty much the differ-ence in the ballgame tonight,that we put those guys in posi-tions,” Jones added. “That's tak-ing nothing away from that foot-ball team right there. That's agood football team.”
Hardin Valley actually out-gained South-Doyle in totalyards 348-341 according to HVAofficial statistics. While theHawks led in passing yards 120versus 91, the Cherokees led inrushing yards 250 versus 228.
One key element in those 91yards was South-Doyle seniorquarterback Brody Rollins, whocompleted a series of key third-and fourth-down passes (11 of 13overall) to keep alive eventualscoring drives.

Farragut High School’s foot-ball team became Fulton’s latestvictim Friday night. The Falcons,who ventured away from BobBlack Field for the first time in2014, handed the Admirals a 55-0 loss that spoiled homecomingfor FHS.
T h eAds (1-3)may haveended up
on the short end of a lopsideddecision, but Farragut couldtake solace in the fact that itheld the two-time defendingClass 4A state champions to aseason low in points.
Trouble was, the Admiralscommitted four turnovers andcouldn’t sustain any offensivemomentum.
“They were a very athleticteam,” Farragut head coachEddie Courtney said. “We gaveup three touchdowns early onsome busted coverages.
“I’m disappointed because Ithought we would come backand make it respectable in thesecond half.”
Fulton (4-0) took the openingkickoff and marched 79 yards oneight plays. The Falcons took a 7-
0 lead when quarterback AdamDiggs hit Kentel Williams with a47-yard scoring strike with 9minutes, 53 seconds left in thefirst quarter.
The Falcons took a 14-0 leadlater in the frame when Diggs,Fulton’s senior quarterback,threw his second touchdownpass. This one went toDomonique Williams and cov-ered 30 yards. It culminated a 5-play 58-yard drive.
Diggs went 17-for-25 andamassed 259 yards and tossed forfour scores.
All, however, wasn’t rosy forthe visitors. Fulton was flaggedfor 87 yards in penalties and hada touchdown negated by aninfraction.
“I told my guys after the gamethat I was proud of their effort,”Falcons head coach RobbieBlack said. “We still have a lot ofthings to work on.
“One of those things is disci-pline when you have that manypenalties.”
Fulton, which held a 14-0 leadafter the opening stanza, scored20 second-quarter points to opena 34-0 lead by halftime. Diggshad a pair of touchdown passesin the frame and Zach Winstonhad a 30-yard scoring scamper togive the Falcons a 28-0 lead mid-
way through the quarter. Diggsand Kentel Williams hooked upon a 34-yard score early in thequarter. Diggs also had a shortTD pass to K.J. Roper that closedout the scoring before halftime.
Fulton’s defense kept the Adsoff the board but junior runningback Tanner Thomas did manageto rush for 136 yards on 22 car-ries.
“I knew Tanner Thomas would
break some runs on us,” Blacksaid. “But I think we did a goodjob keeping him contained.

This was new for us. We’ve neverplayed three matches during theweek. We’ve only done this in atournament. I’m proud of the waywe responded.”
After handling the LadyCherokees and Lady Rams inshort order, the Lady Ads thenplayed the Lady Beavers, thedefending District 3-AAA cham-pions. Farragut swept Karns in
the 2013Region 2-AAA Tour-n a m e n t
en route to claiming the Regiontitle.
Monday’s outcome was muchthe same as last year’s postsea-son meeting. The Lady Ads gotoff to a blazing start in the firstset and opened a 10-5 lead on aservice ace by sophomore AlexisParker.
The Lady Beavers, however,would respond by scoring thenext three points. Karns pulledto within 10-8 when AbbySpradlin scored two points(including an ace) after a side-out.
Karns, which had an early 2-1lead, would never lead afterParker’s initial service surge. TheLady Beavers pulled to within 11-10 before a big run expanded theLady Ads’ advantage to 14-10.Farragut took the four-point leadon an ace by setter MikaelaBrock.
“Mikaela Brock did a great job
for us tonight,” Davidson said.“We’re blessed to have threegreat setters in Emma, Mikaelaand Tia [Madden].
“I’m really proud of these girls.They work hard in the offseasonand they don’t mind getting inthe hot gym and working.”
Davidson couldn’t find enoughaccolades for her team, whichhas made a habit of playing shortmatches this season.
“This is a special team but westill have a lot of work to do,” shesaid.
Milstead scored 17 points onthe night and Madden set thetone in the second set againstthe Lady Beavers. She helpedFarragut all but polish off theLady Beavers. She had ninepoints in the match. The LadyAds took a 1-0 lead on a side-outbefore Madden served up thenext four points to make it 5-0.She had three aces on the runbefore Karns called timeout. TheLady Beavers pulled to within 5-1before Grooms scored threepoints after the Lady Adsregained possession. From there,Farragut would cruise to its thirdlopsided win of the night.
“We all know each other andwe trust each other,” Parker said.“We’re all working hard.”
Parker finished with nine kills.Anne Abernathy had four blocks.Brock had 19 assists whileNatalie Hartman recorded threeblocks against Karns.

It was a long night Monday forthe Farragut High School volley-ball team, but it wasn’t anylonger than it had to be. TheLady Admirals made short workof three opponents in Lynn E.Sexton Gymnasium.
FHS downed South-Doyle,Grace Christian Academy andKarns in straight sets. The LadyAds (35-1 after the wins) openedthe potential marathon eveningwith a 25-7, 25-19 victory overthe Lady Cherokees. Farragutthen knocked off the Lady Rams25-13, 25-7 before defeating theLady Beavers 25-14, 25-9.
“Our plan for the night was toget things done as quickly aspossible and I’m happy with theway we responded,” FHS seniorRaegan Grooms said.
The Lady Admirals certainlyaccomplished that goal as allthree matches were concludedin less than an hour.Furthermore, Farragut got pro-duction from several players onthis night. The Lady Admirals’front row was particularly domi-nant in all three matches.
“It’s kind of fun,” Farraguthead coach Susan Davidson said.“Our front row did a good job.
“All three of these teams werescrappy. Karns is in our regionand this is the first time we’veseen them this year. We sawsome good matches tonight.These teams just don’t quit.”
Karns, Grace and South-Doylemay have all put up valiantefforts. None of those teams,however, could find an answerfor Farragut’s balanced attack.
“We have so many weaponsand we find the other teams’weakness and that determineswho steps up for us,” senior set-ter Emma Milstead said. “Youcouldn’t ask for a better team.

Wake-up call has Farragut boys golf back on trackFARRAGUTPRESS THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 2014 • 7A
Dalton wins 4-AAA crown; Lady Ads 2nd behind Boling
■ ALAN [email protected]
Since they were read the riotact by head coach Jonathan Coxafter a loss to Maryville at GreenMeadow County Club Aug. 7 —the first Farragut High Schoolboys golf district loss in a regularseason match in five years — anexperienced and talented FHSteam has sharpened its game.
“I was not real happy with ourfocus, we had sort of been goingthrough the motions,” said Cox,whose team’s new “focus” paidoff during the District 4-AAATournament at Lambert Acresjust outside of Maryville Monday,Sept. 15. The Admirals shot a 3-under par 285 (four top scoresfor 18 holes) to easily win by 14strokes.
Meanwhile, the LadyAdmirals, who Cox said havebeen on top of their game mostof the regular season whilebeing led by a stellar seasonfrom senior Elizabeth Keeling,took second place — twostrokes behind championHeritage.
Though FHS senior KaylandBoling shot a sizzling 2-underpar 34 on the back nine atLambert Acres Monday, “whichis the best nine holes she’splayed in her high schoolcareer” according to Cox, shelost in a sudden death playoff toTrista Holder of Heritage. (Moreon the FHS girls later in thestory).
Finishing as Class AAA staterunner-up two of the past threeseasons, Farragut returns its topfour players from 2013: seniorsMark Dalton, who shot a 5-underpar 67 to win individual districttournament honors Monday, andConnor McKay, defending
Region 2-AAA individual champ,along with juniors Chip Thomasand Tyler Johnson. “Johnson hasthe best stroke average on theyear,” Cox said.
However, “When your kids hearhow good they’re supposed to be,sometimes we loose focus ascoaches and as players,” Coxsaid.
After that Maryville loss Aug.7, “We went back and had prac-tice that night at Fox Den[Country Club] until we couldn’tsee, and it really changed ourmentality for the rest of the sea-son,” Cox said. “It changed ourfocus on just getting better everyday instead of worrying about theregion and state tournament.”
As for Monday’s 4-AAA tourneyeffort, “That’s pretty good, we’lltake it,” Cox said about Dalton,also 2012 Region 2-AAA champas a sophomore, and his boysoverall team performance.
A signature regular seasonperformance came Aug. 22-23 atThe Honors Course in Ooltewahagainst private school powersBaylor and McCallie. In five one-on-one matches against eachteam over that two-day span, the
FHS boys won nine of 10. On the girls side, “They had a
great season,” Cox said about ateam whose top two players,Keeling and Boling, have ledFarragut to three straight regionchampionships.
Keeling, who Cox said was hisbest player during the regularseason, “Came in third at theBaylor Preview, which is one ofthe best high school golf tourna-ments in the state,” he added.“She led us this year with a 38stroke average [nine holes].”
Boling, who won the regionchampionship at Lambert Acresher freshman season, shot a 74— rebounding well after “gettingoff to a bad start,” Cox said.
“At the turn she asked, ‘Howdo we stand?’ And I said, ‘Youneed to finish strong and play thebest nine holes you’ve played thisseason.’ … She stepped up to thechallenge.”
Holder “made a 25-foot birdieputt” on the first playoff hole tobeat Boling, Cox said.
Keeling shot a 78 Monday. “Rachael McMahan has done a
good job of stepping up and play-ing well in that No. 3 hole,” Cox
said about the FHS junior. Because the Lady Admirals
finished in the top three(Maryville was third), they willadvance to next week’s region
tournament at Oak RidgeCountry Club Monday, Sept. 22.
Hardin Valley, boys runner-up,and the third-place Maryvilleboys also advance to Oak Ridge.

For his part, Thomas said thatFulton was extremely quick.
“That was one of the fastestteams that I’ve ever seen,” hesaid. “They executed and we exe-cuted too, but tonight they werethe deeper team.”
Thomas was one of the fewbright spots for the Ads on thisnight. He accounted for most ofFarragut’s total offense. TheAdmirals mustered only 165yards in the contest. Thomasalso lost a fumble but he contin-ues to impress his coach.
“Tanner always runs hard,”Courtney said. “He’s had a cou-ple of turnovers over the pastcouple of weeks.
“But everybody knows who heis and those [turnovers] are aproduct of his effort to get extrayards.”
Fulton got its lone score of thethird stanza on an 82-yardtouchdown run by KentelWilliams.
D’ontay Tate and ChatonMobley had fourth-quartertouchdown runs for the Falcons.
Farragut must have a shortmemory.
The Admirals play host to WestHigh Friday night, Sept. 1, at BillClabo Field.

“If this doesn’t bother youthen you’re not connected to theteam,” said Farragut seniordefensive back Derek Williams,who intercept a pass from Diggsearly in the contest. “This was atough loss and we need to cometogether because each game is[now] a district game.”

Dawgs’ struggles continue, fall at Morristown East■ KEN LAY
Correspondent
MORRISTOWN — BeardenHigh School’s football team putup one of its best offensive effortsof the 2014 season Friday night,Sept. 12, against Morristown Eastand that was the good news forthe Bulldogs.
The bad news was that Beardenmade it into the end zone onlyonce in a 37-11 loss to theHurricanes.
“We moved the ball but we justcouldn’t score,” Bearden headcoach Morgan Shinlever saidafter watching his squad pile up249 yards of offense against the
Hurricanes. “We just couldn’t getinto the end zone.
“We’re moving the ball but wejust can’t carry things out. Wecan’t finish drives. We need to
e x e c u t eand finishdrives.”
For thesecond consecutive week, theBulldogs (0-4) took an early leadwhen its defense scored a safety.
But the Hurricanes managed totake the lead a short time laterwhen Chris Logan gave the hometeam a 3-2 lead with a 27-yardfield goal.
And that was only the begin-ning for Logan and the
Hurricanes (2-2). In addition tohis field goal, Logan had fourtouchdown runs and an 89-yardkickoff return for a score. Thesenior running back and kickeralso kicked a pair of extra points.
Logan accounted for all ofMorristown East’s scoring in thefirst 24 minutes. He extended theHurricanes’ advantage to 10-2 inthe second quarter on a 1-yardplunge then adding the PAT.
Shinlever had to be pleasedwith the fact that his young teamwas embroiled in a tight game atthe break.
“The defense played prettywell,” he said. “We had about 250yards of offense and held them to
about 160, I think.”Morristown East, which explod-
ed for 27 points in the third quar-ter, actually amassed 191 yards ofoffense in the game. TheHurricanes took control of thecontest on Logan’s scoring kickoffreturn. He added three touch-down runs in the frame from 27,18 and 27 yards respectively. Andwhen the dust had settled, theHurricanes blew past theBulldogs and opened a 37-2 lead.
The Bulldogs finally reachedthe end zone when freshmanquarterback Dawson Houser rum-bled 67 yards on a keeper later inthe game.
Bearden’s top standout was
junior wide receiver JamalAshley, who finished the gamewith 198 all-purpose yards. Hehad 80 receiving yards on thenight. He also rushed for a yardand was a force in the returngame (117 yards) with 110 kickoffreturn yards.
Bulldogs punter John MatthewLee punted four times and had a33-yarder that pinned MorristownEast on its 9-yard line.
Bearden will return to District4-AAA play Friday night, Sept. 19,when it travels to Lenoir City toface the Panthers. LCHS (1-2overall, 0-1 in the district) routedSequoyah 43-13 on the road lastFriday.

West End Center in Farragutwelcomes a new business, StanSwaggerty Tile Design.
Stan Swaggerty, owner andinstallation manager, is re-open-ing and relocating his business’showroom to 161 West End Ave.in Farragut. Swaggerty said heand son, Adam Swaggerty,opened the showroom Monday,Sept. 8. “We are extremely excit-ed about this,” Stan Swaggertysaid. “It’s something we lookedforward to and worked hard toget here.”
Stan Swaggerty changed thename of his business, which waspreviously known as S & LFlooring, after a recommenda-tion from a marketing firm, hesaid.
“I’ve lived here my entire life,and if you ask anybody who S & LFlooring is, they’re not sure; but ifyou say Stan Swaggerty, theyknow who it is,” he said. “So, [themarketing representative] said,‘You just need to promote yourname.’”
While the showroom at WestEnd Center is new, the businesshas been in existence for 23years.
Swaggerty said he previouslyhad a private showroom for cus-tomers at Century Plaza nearLovell Road, but he closed it twoyears ago. “We decided to just selland install tile without the show-room,” he added.
The store in West End Center
will not be a private showroom,Adam Swaggerty, who is joiningthe business as a sales manager,said.
“It’s a retail showroom also,”Stan Swaggerty said. Father andson will sell and install ceramic,porcelain, glass and natural stonetiles from their new store.
“We’re going to provide a verypersonalized service,” StanSwaggerty said. “We will be usinga design program that can doquite a few different things. Wewill be able to draw the rooms outfor a person, whether it’s floors orwalls, either one. We will be ableto show them different tile pat-
terns, including decos, borders oranything they would like to see ontheir walls.”
Stan Swaggerty said the pro-gram will allow them to create 3-D models, able to recommendinterior designers or decorators totheir customers. He said the storewill carry such products as DalTile, Jeffrey Court, OceansideGlass and Natural Stones.
The store is open from 8 a.m. to8 p.m., Monday through Friday,and 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., Saturdays.

Judy Hobbs was a neonatalnurse in a hospital intensive careunit when she decided to take adetour and open The AdorableChild, 11416 Kingston Pike, inFarragut, with husband, BradHobbs.
“I’ve always loved children —I’ve always worked in a children’shospital — but I had a passionfor children’s clothes and I wasburned out on nursing,” JudyHobbs said.
She said she always wanted toopen a children’s boutique, sowhen Judy Hobbs started think-ing about leaving nursing, sheand Brad, both Farragut resi-dents for 20 years, opened TheAdorable Child eight years ago.
“I love it. I love people,” JudyHobbs said. “Having a small busi-ness, we have customers whohave become like family. Youknow their names and the thingsgoing on in their lives, so I havemade a lot of good friends thatway through this business.
“It’s kind of a ministry to me,too,” she added. “Whether it’s ourcustomers who have cancer orhave someone in their familydying, we will pray for them orsend them cards.”
Judy Hobbs said the storeallows her to do such ministry asdonating to orphanages in othercountries or to Angelic orFountain City ministries anddoing mission-type work.
She said the business has
expanded in two ways — spaceand its merchandise.
“We’ve taken up more space inthe store for sure,” Judy Hobbssaid. “We started in the first sec-tion up there, and then weexpanded a couple years ago intothe second section. This last[third section] opened up a yearago.
The store carries newborn toyoung and trendy fashions.
Judy Hobbs said the businessstarted as a consignment shop,but that, too, has changed. Whileit is still mostly consignment, it
slowly expanded into new mer-chandise and a custom line, whichincludes appliqué and embroi-dery.
“We do a lot of baby gifts,” shesaid, adding those may includebaby blankets, bibs and burpcloths. Parents also can color-coordinate their items with theinfant’s room.
The Adorable Child also sellsappliqués for children’s clothing.They can have a football,Tennessee Vols logos, princesscrowns, Disney, birthday andother designs they want sewn on
an outfit. “We do a lot of hair bows.We customize those, too, to theschools and the school colors,”Hobbs said.

“While women represent about61 percent of the total enrollmentin the state’s community colleges,they only account for about 11 per-cent of the enrollment in engineer-ing technology programs.” Under-represented groups make up about13 percent of engineering technolo-gy program enrollment.
As part of the Community CollegeSpace Grant Consortium, the col-lege plans to recruit more womenand underrepresented groups intoSTEM-related associate’s degreeand certificate programs, particu-larly in the areas of engineeringtechnology and robotics.
The grant will provide $45,000in scholarships to PellissippiState. This is the first time that aSpace Grant scholarship has beenawarded to Tennessee communitycollege students.
The grant also will help theschool hire a part-time “comple-tion coach” to provide PellissippiState’s Engineering Technologystudents the support they needto graduate. The EngineeringTechnology program culminatesin an Associate of Applied Sci-ence degree.
Additionally, it will pay formembership in the Institute ofElectrical and ElectronicsEngineers, and for travel to theIEEE SoutheastCon’s roboticscompetition and the NASASummer Robotics Institute at theMarshall Space Flight Center inHuntsville, Ala.

David Moore, FHS softball head coach, after his 300th win inthe early 2000s.
Moore credits bloodlinesfor his coaching enthusiasm
WORKING JOE:
■ ALAN [email protected]
David Moore traces his desireto become a coach back to hisbloodlines.
“A lot of that comes from mydad [David]. My dad coachedme in youth sports growing up. Iknow that’s something that heprobably had a desire to do[coach professionally], but did-n’t get that opportunity,” saidMoore, serving his 31st schoolyear as a coach in four sports atFarragut High School while adriver’s education/physical edu-cation teacher.
As head coach of FHS LadyAdmirals volleyball teams for 23seasons beginning in the 1987-88 school year, Moore’s girlswere a dominant force in dis-trict and Knoxville metro areacompetition, especially in thefirst decade of the 2000s. Mooreled his girls to numerous dis-trict and region championshipswhile earning a handful of ClassAAA state tournament appear-ances.
Preparing to enter his 25thseason as FHS softball headcoach in early 2015, Moore’sdiamond girls are regularly in
the hunt for district and regionchampionships. Among thisAdmiral skipper’s list of softballstate tourney accomplishmentswas finishing tied for third in2010.
“I think I’ve been very blessedwith the young ladies that havecome through my program,”Moore, 56, said. “You just hopethat you can make a differencein young people’s lives, not onlyfrom the athletic coachingstandpoint but the way theylook at life and being part of ateam.”
Donald Dodgen, FHS athleticdirector, said Moore is “an out-standing gentleman andteacher, and an excellent coach.A great community person, agreat family person.”
As a back-up baseball infield-er at East Ridge High School inChattanooga (Class of 1976),Moore said he honed his coach-ing skills while “a bench player,just kind of observing whatother people are doing aroundus and trying to pick up onthings.
“I went to The University ofTennessee as a P.E. major andmy desire was to coach baseballat that time, going in,” Moore
added. “… Coaching a lot ofintramural teams kinda of gotme into coaching women, andthe softball and volleyballthing kind of spurred fromthat, too. … In fact, I had ateam or two to win All-campustitles a time or two in flag foot-ball, softball, volleyball.”
Moore began teaching andcoaching at FHS in the 1983-84school year, during which healso served as assistant base-ball coach under JohnHeatherly. He has been at the
school full time since the 1985-86 school year. He also servedas an assistant boys basketballcoach under two former varsityskippers, Lynn E. Sexton andMike Edwards.
An avid Atlanta Braves fan,Moore credits a lot of his suc-cess to former softball assis-tant coach Dick Waters, cur-rent assistant Nick Green,coach/scorekeeper Ray Watsonand former volleyball assistantcoach Brendon Cleer.

The book that changed flylady’s lifeI ran into a Flybaby at the
airport in Boston. (What’s aFlybaby? It’s a person who fol-lows the nationally knownwoman who helps women getorganized via the Internet. Shewears purple as do many of herfollowers. I happen to be hermentor.) How could I miss thisf o l l o w e rin the air-port? Shehad a pur-p l eF l y l a d yoffice in abag, (sortof a“ m o b i l ed e s k ) ,was wear-ing purpleand wasw o r k i n go ndeskwork.I wentover to her and said,
“I recognize your office in abag, have you read SinkReflections (Flylady’s book)?”
Fifteen minutes later sheran out of breath from espous-ing her joy and gratitude forFlylady! Then she asked me if Iwas a Flybaby and I said,
“Well, not exactly, but I’mthe reason you’re one.” Shelooked a little confused so Itold her this story.
My sister and I wrote a bookcalled Sidetracked HomeExecutives: from pigpen to par-adise in 1977. We were slobs(SLOB stands for Spontaneous,Lighthearted, Optimistic andBeloved) and we reformed.That little book was the first“get organized” book on themarket written by two peoplewho had been desperately dis-organized and turned the situ-ation around 180 degrees. Itwas an overnight success (wellit took about a year) and wewere whisked around the coun-try to appear on hundreds oftelevision and radio shows. Wemet stars and got to play withOprah many times, who, by theway, is a SHE (Sidetracked
Home Executive).Then we wrote a book called
The Sidetracked Sister’s Happ-iness File and that’s how Flyladycomes onto the scene. Thatbook is about using 3x5 cards tohelp a person be happier. Marla(that’s Flylady’s real neame)was reading that book in bedwith her now ex-husband, whenshe started giggling. Her hus-band said, “What’s so funny?” Soshe read the excerpt to him (I’llinclude it in this essay) and hesaid, “That’s not funny at all,that’s disgusting.”
She realized at that momentthat this marriage was not work-ing; that this man didn’t have asense of humor and shedivorced soon after “the read-ing.” I know this story becauseMarla called our office some-time in the early 90s, I hap-pened to answer the phone andshe told me what had happened.We’ve been friends for almost 20years and we’ve helped eachother and lifted each other upthroughout the time we’ve beenblessed to know each other. Ourmutual selflessness has given usboth an ability to help disorgan-ized women learn to be organ-ized not to please someone else,but to please themselves. Ourmessage has always been lacedwith love and gratitude andthat’s what has fed our friend-ship.
Now I’ve told you that mybook changed Marla’s life in aradical way, but Marla turnedaround and changed, not onlymy life but my husband’s life ina drastic way! Almost four yearsago, I received a book in themail as a surprise gift fromMarla. It was entitled, Why WeGet Fat and What We Can DoAbout It, by Gary Taubes. Thatbook put us on the most health-ful track we could ever be on!Because of that book, we don’tcount calories, we don’t gainweight AND we are happier! Yes,that’s one of the main changesthat happened when we began ahigh fat, low carbohydrate diet.Probably because we areNEVER hungry so we aren’t
starving our brains of the nutri-ents a high fat diet gives them.
I did have to get a new physi-cian who understands the sci-ence behind a Paleo diet andshe told me that when we eatmore fat our brains thrive! Shealso believes that the epidemicof Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s anddementia are directly related tothe low fat craze mainstreammedicine and our governmenthas pushed down our throatssince the 60s. She should know,she’s also a psychiatrist.
So I can say, “Because ofMarla we have no sugar in ourhouse,” (except for a one-poundbox that’s nowhere near empty,because it’s used for when com-pany wants sugar in tea or cof-fee). (I did have a very smallpiece of wedding cake a coupleyears ago and I had a hangoverlike I had in my younger days ofdrinking too much.)
Here’s that excerpt.We [my sister and I] spent a
lot of our time in our room. Weavoided having to go downstairs,because when Mom would seeus, she’d think of things for usto do…like housework. Weinvented ways to stay self-con-tained upstairs. Having no bath-room up there posed a problemuntil we thought of using thewindow. We opted for the win-dowsill above the dining room,facing the secluded canyon.Sitting on the edge with our feetoutside the window, we watchedthe trickles as they flowed downthe mossy sloping roof out ofsight. Our parents never knewuntil years later, when Dadinstalled a TV antenna on theroof and was puzzled by the twodistinct paths carved out of thegreen moss. He told Mom that itwas strange that the moss wasonly dead in two strips.

The vision of a Union Cum-berland Presbyterian Churchmember with Christian empathytoward the horrors of brain can-cer, inaugural Friends of BrookeWheeler’s Victory Birds 5K/Pet-and-Kid Walk/ Gatheringfundraiser drew between 125and 150 participants Saturday,Aug. 23.
“I would have loved to seemore, but considering that wedid that in three weeks time, wethought it was phenomenal,”said Becky Johnson, UCPC mem-ber whose daughter, BrookeWheeler of Austin, Texas, is suc-cessfully battling brain cancer.“This is going to be annual andwe’re going to grow it next year.”
Victory Birds’ effort “raisedover $5,000” to fight brain can-cer, Johnson added about theevent, which was held nearUCPC. “We’re absolutely happy.In the back of my mind I knewthat if we made $5,000 it wassuccessful. I was not expectingthat.”
Johnson emphasized theevent contributions from TedHall, WVLT-TV 8 news anchorwhose son “also has a braintumor,” she said. “He spoke atthe event and then [Hall, hiswife and son] walked and ranthe race.”
Wheeler, among a handful ofspeakers, said the event “was
just really overwhelming andhumbling. … We desire for peo-ple to catch a vision that wehave that we know is importantto us personally. And to havepeople step in so quickly …means a lot.
“It was amazing to see thepeople that come out who hadpersonally been touched bybrain cancer themselves,” sheadded. “… I think that made memore passionate about beinginvolved in it in Tennessee as Iam in Texas.
“Seeing the need being metwas super humbling and awe-some.”
Among the speakers was par-ticipant Sean Driscoll, “Whospoke about the loss of his sisterjust a couple of months ago frombrain cancer,” Johnson said.“The more aggressive form ofbrain cancer.”
Brooke added, “Sometimesyou just want to forget you haveit. But remembering how muchit meant to me to have peoplecome to me when I was sick …reminds me that it’s importantfor me to do the same thing. …So it makes me have a passion tobe more involved in it.”
Planning to make this anannual event, Victory Birdsfundraiser was the brainchild ofMary Jo Turner of UnionCumberland PresbyterianChurch, wife of the Rev. LeonardTurner, UCPC pastor.
“The feedback we got, people

said it was a fun event and theydidn’t feel rushed to do things,”Johnson said. “We had so manyevents there: we had firemencome out for the children, wehad inflatable stuff for the kids.People spoke and they hung outand they ate. … And we hadmusic: George Massingill andMitchell Davis were there toperform. They did line danc-ing.”
One change might be in theworks. “We hope to have it an adifferent time next year whenit’s not too hot,” Johnson said.“… We haven’t met to makethat determination yet. … Andwe want to involve more teamswhere people have been affect-ed by brain cancer, and theycan raise their own funds.”

four teams in the district.“I only have one little concern,
and we can work through that, isplaying Kingsport [Dobyns-Bennett]and playing [Johnson City] ScienceHill, and playing those with greattravel, it’s going to be hard to sched-ule Monday JV/ freshmen games,”Courtney added about the sameschools following up Friday varsitygames with Monday JV/freshmengames against the same school. “…You play a program a hundred milesaway, it’s hard on Mondays to go playa JV/freshmen game” with school thenext morning.
Concerning the higher financialcost of traveling greater distances toplay regular season games, Courtneysaid, “We’re OK with that.”
As for the new Class 6A eastregion, “It’s my understanding, andthis is not official … it’ll beScience Hill, Kingsport, SevierCounty, us, Hardin Valley, Beardenand we’ll wait and see whatWilliam Blount’s going to do,they’re right on the edge, andMaryville’s right on the edge,”Courtney said.
Wes Jones, HVA head coach, saidthe new 32-team format “is not allbad. It’s going to increase the trav-el for us, but I’m a lot like Eddie[Courtney], we’re trying to play
some of those teams that we’regoing to be in the region with. Wehaven’t traveled that far east in ourprogram yet with Dobyns-Bennettand Science Hill.”
Jones said he had one concernabout the new format. “WhenTSSAA says, ‘you’re in the 32,’ whatare going to be the prerequisitesfor these teams to want to startjockeying and dropping down?” hesaid. “Who’s to say that if one teamwants to go down, why do they getto go down if they’re in the top 32?”
Acknowledging higher travelexpenses within this new format, “Idefinitely think so,” Jones said.
Jones also expressed concernabout long travel to play junior var-
sity/freshman games on Mondaynights with school the next morn-ing. “I’m not going to do it; I’mgoing to call Eddie across the hillor Morgan [Shinlever] over atBearden, or Robbie [Black] over atFulton, and I’m going to stay righthere in Knoxville and play JV ball-games. … We’ll probably go as faras Jeff[erson] County andSevierville [Sevier County].”
Shinlever, new Bearden headcoach, said the new format “guar-antees my team an 11th gameevery year. … and over the courseof [a player’s] high school career,that’s going to be a total of fourextra games that they’re guaran-tees. I do like that aspect of it.”
“We’ll play whoever they put onour schedule. … You got to kind ofgo with what our governing bodydecides what’s best for our footballprograms throughout the state.”
As for long trips to the Tri-Citiesand other possible long distancegames, “We’ve done that before.We’re no strangers to the travel,”Shinlever said. “… If we’re going tobe a serious playoff-contendingteam, that we need to be able toget on a bus and travel a little bit toplay a ballgame.”
George Quarles, head coach ofcurrent Class 6A powerhouse anddefending state champ Maryville,said he “really didn’t have an opin-ion” on the new format.

Jacob Bailey is attempting totake his singing talent to a newlevel, performing in a high-profilesetting for the first time ever,while playing a “bad guy.”
This 15-year-old freshman atKnoxville Christian School playsone of the Wickersham Brothersin “Seussical: The Musical,”Presented by Knoxville Children’sTheatre, 109 E. Churchwell Ave.The curtain rises at 7 p.m.,Thursdays and Fridays; 1 p.m. and5 p.m., Saturdays, and at 3 p.m.,Sundays, Sept. 19 through Oct. 5.
“I’ve always sang before butI’ve never been in a play or amusical,” said Bailey, who isjoined in the musical by anotherFarragut-area talent, EmmaCampbell. This 17-year-old saidshe is looking toward a theater-related career.
Bailey’s big break camebecause his younger sisters “weretrying out for it and my mom wastalking about it, and I just asked ifI could also try out. So she called
the director [Deanna Surber] andasked if I could try out, if therewere any spots left for me to tryout for,” he said. “I tried out main-ly just to get a part and theyended up giving me that role.”
As a result, “I enjoy acting, it’sreally fun,” Bailey said. “… I’vemet new friends and we talkabout a bunch of differentthings.”
Making it more enjoyable is hischaracter.
“It’s a bad guy … almost devi-ous,” Bailey said. “You just get toalmost tease the good guy. … Mycharacter just like runs aroundand does a whole bunch of stuffon stage. It’s a whole lot of fun.”
While Bailey doesn’t have anyspeaking lines, “I have multiplesolos,” he said.
Campbell, a home-schooledhigh school senior, is in Seussicalfor the second time: the firsttime, as a seventh-grader, “got mehooked.”
A veteran of KCT and otherhigh school performances who
Chelsey Riemann, Farragut pub-lic relations coordinator, said.
“We feature artists of all kinds,and she makes beautiful hand-made 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, morethan anything, is making chil-dren’s clothes,” she added. “I liketo make pocket books and thingslike that, too.”
The artist said her mother hadalways sewn and taught Becknerhow to sew. She made her firstdress at age 16.
”I wanted a dress, and mymother was in the hospital, so Imade the dress myself,” she said.
Once Beckner became a moth-er, she made clothes for her twodaughters, among them promdresses and a wedding dress. Shewill be making clothes for agranddaughter, which is due inOctober, she said.
Beckner said she enjoys sewingthe children's clothes, purses andother handmade items to sell andraise funds for mission trips toHaiti.
The artist volunteers with OneVision International Children'sHome in Archaei, Haiti, teachingthe oldest girls sewing skills sothey will have a skill when theyage out of the orphanage, she
said.Beckner will take her fifth trip
to Archaei, Hati, in November.She learned about the missionopportunity from John Miller,who came up with One Vision andattends her church, she said.
“I’ve known John my whole life,and I’ve always wanted to go on amission trip,” she said. “Whenthey came up with this sewingproject, I thought that would beperfect. That’s for me.”
Beckner is employed full-timeby the Knox County PublicBuilding Authority.
Farragut Town Hall, 11408Municipal Center Drive directlyacross from the Farragut BranchPost Office, is open from 8 a.m. to5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Kayland Boling, another FHSsenior, said she also thought theadditional eBook subscription willbe great.
“It will be easier to do researchpapers,” Boling said. “We will havebetter access to information.”
