The Mt. Juliet Senior Citizen Center has started a weekly “music jam” on Thursdays from 1 – 3 p.m. The weekly music jam is a free event to anyone interested in listening to some great country, bluegrass, and gospel music from our regional talent. It is also a free and open venue for musicians and singers alike to share their talents with our seniors and community. “We hope this weekly event will continue to grow, and as it grows, our senior center will hopefully grow as well,” commented Center Executive Director Donna Stephens. “Warren Hickman assisted me greatly with planning and organizing this first music jam. The seniors were beyond appreciative for the music and laughter of the day.... it was rejuvenating for everyone! The musicians, singers, and audience were thrilled to have this venue to share, laugh, dance, play and sing. We are encouraging the public to join us every Thursday for this event... we hope to grow and grow and grow!” ~ Photos by Tomi L. Wiley

They say that necessity breeds invention, and for one former Mt. Juliet man and his family that necessity has resulted in a new publication focusing on the history of Nashville. Allen Forkum and

his family, including father Garnett and brother Barry, recently published the fi rst edition of The Nashville Retrospect, a broadsheet newspaper focusing on historical events and experiences in Nashville. Allen said two things spurred the idea for the newspaper: “the slumping economy and

my old house.” “The Nashville Retrospect is published by AutoGraphic Publishing Company which has been printing newspapers about the auto industry since 1988 when my father, Garnett Forkum, and I started the company,” Allen said Monday. “The recent auto industry slump forced us to consider other ideas. One was a newspaper for older Nashvillians, and one feature we considered was a local history page. But the more I thought about it, the more I thought that an entire publication could be devoted to the topic. “I became intensely interested in local history in 2007 when my wife, Anna, and I purchased an old house in the Belmont/12th South area of Nashville. Because of historic zoning restrictions, I had to research the house’s past so that any changes we made to the exterior were consistent with its history. I had a wonderful time doing the research. I felt like a detective, scouring microfi lm and looking at old maps. I learned that the 1907 house was older than tax records indicated and that it was built by a blind man whose grandson and

great grandson still build houses today (that’s a whole other story). “In short, I found learning about local history very enriching, and I thought others might enjoy it, too.” Allen said the publication took around fi ve months to come to fruition – from the fi rst idea in January to its release at the end of June. All of the contributors to the Retrospect are freelance, and they range in expertise from scholars to those writing about their personal experiences. “To name a few: Mike Slate is editor and publisher of the Nashville Historical Newsletter; for us his topics have ranged from a street in Donelson to an Englishman’s 1797 visit to frontier Nashville,” Allen said. “George Zepp writes regularly for The Tennessean about the city’s past; for us he wrote about the now-gone Bijou theater and the city’s fi rst prohibition raid. Paul Clements is a historian currently writing a major work on the founding of the Cumberland settlements;

for us this month he wrote about John Donelson’s famous journal of his river journey to the settlements.”But much of the content also comes from old newspapers, which is more about researching than writing. Other articles go back to the early 1800s. “We have over 230 years of the city’s history to draw upon,” Allen noted. Allen said the response to the fi rst edition has been “overwhelmingly positive.” “There’s an excitement about it that I did not expect. We knew some people would like it, but we underestimated how many and how strongly,” he said. “The July issue featured a photo of Cascade Plunge from July 4, 1957. We got a huge response from people who remembered going there. We receive phones calls and e-mails every day about the paper, often from older Nashvillians who want to tell us their memories, which is something we will

2009 Fall Season Sign-ups Now Open in Mt. Juliet.

Mt. Juliet leaders took a step toward installing traffi c light cameras on several of the city’s busiest intersections Monday night and toward renaming a major road from I-40 to Lebanon Road. The Mt. Juliet board of commissioners approved 4 -1 on fi rst reading an agreement with ATS, a company that provides technology and business solutions for photo traffi c safety and electronic toll enforcement programs (www.atstraffi c.com), to install traffi c cameras in Mt. Juliet after a study concluded that dive of 15 intersections warrant the cameras, according to City Manager Randy Robertson. Mt. Juliet Police Chief Andy Garrett said Monday that ATS sub-contracted a company to conduct the study, and a view of one particular traffi c light recorded 22 cars running the red light in an eight-hour period. None of the intersections included in the study were identifi ed by Garrett or Robertson on Monday night due to the early stages of the project. Garrett said he will work with ATS on a “public information blitz campaign” and post signs at the city limits to alert drivers to the traffi c light cameras before they are actually installed. The contract with ATS is an agreement for three years of service with an option to renew at the end of that

time, said City Attorney Jason Holleman, and the City would have to “show cause” in order to break the contract or opt out within 30 days of signing it. The agreement was approved on fi rst reading, with District 4 Commissioner Jim

Bradshaw voting against it. C o m m i s s i o n e r s also discussed renaming what is now considered Beckwith Road at the I-40 intersection, then C u r d Road, then Beckwith Road extension once the road project is fi nished, linking I-40 to Lebanon Road (Hwy. 70). Commissioners agreed upon renaming it Golden Bear Gateway and will change the name offi cially once all phases of the road construction are fi nished. Local residents – and the new Mt. Juliet High School – will have to change their addresses at that time. Also in New Business, the board appointed Mayor Linda Elam as its continued representation on the Wilson County Joint Economic Community Development Board as required per a letter from JECDB Director G.C. Hixson, who attended the meeting. Elam will serve through January, when the city commission may choose her again or someone else to serve a four year term. While they had his ear, commissioners voiced their concerns that Mt. Juliet is not fairly represented on the JECDB Board, since

technically Mt. Juliet’s population is higher than Lebanon yet Lebanon has more representation on the board. “It has become glaringly obvious that Mt. Juliet is larger but Lebanon still gets more

r e p r e s e n t a t i o n , ” remarked District 3 Commissioner Ed Hagerty. “That needs to be clarifi ed –

rectifi ed,” added Elam. Hixson said he will return in January with “an explanation” for the board, if that was acceptable to them. “It’s gone on so long,” shrugged Hagerty, “what’s waiting ‘til January?” In Unfi nished Business, commissioners approved on second reading

Dear Editor: I think it is easier to see the difference in people rather than the similarities. It may be true that “familiarity breeds contempt,” but then the inverse may also be true: “familiarity breeds friendliness.” Why don’t

we try an easy community-wide experiment in each of our neighborhoods. Let’s sit outside in front of our house for ten minutes from 6:30 – 6:40 p.m. each Sunday night and see what develops. The weather should be good for a while and we will be able

to tell if it is working before winter. I call this “The Front Porch Initiative” AKA “FPI.” It may sound simplistic and naïve, but then again, it just might work!

be publishing. Other readers enjoy learning more about where they live, even if they are not from here.” Allen and his family, however, are from here – from Mt. Juliet, to be exact. He graduated from high school here in 1983 and worked at Staggs Pharmacy from junior high through high school. He said he had fun being a “soda jerk” at the store’s ice cream counter. Later he attended different commercial art schools in Atlanta, GA, and while there designed the logos for The Herald and The Beacon. He met his wife, Anna, at art school and eventually moved back to Nashville to start the graphic design studio that would become the basis for his publishing company. He and Anna have a six-year-old daughter, Lyla. The good news is that even in these “tough economic times,” something good can be born of necessity – and in addition to discovering fun facts about Nashville, Allen uncovered

some tidbits about Mt. Juliet as well. “In researching the Retrospect, I come across interesting items from all over middle Tennessee,” Allen said. “One I found was about Mt. Juliet. It appeared in the December 29, 1887, edition of The Daily American. It reads as follows: MOUNT JULIET ACADEMY.Special Correspondence of The American.Mount Juliet, Tenn., Dec. 27.—Our citizens were highly entertained at Academy Hall last night by the pupils of the elocution classes, under the excellent direction of Mrs. J. W. Macoy, of Nashville. The regular programme was supplemented by several selections recited by Mrs. Macoy and her little daughter Jennie. The audience left in a state of high good humor.” For more information on The Nashville Retrospect, including where to pick up a copy or how to subscribe, visit www.nashvilleretrospect.com or call 615-391-3666.

PAPER, from Page 2

Writer: familiarity breeds friendliness


Set to join the ranks on August 24, Mt. Juliet’s new city planner said this week that he sees Mt. Juliet as a “forward-thinking community” that is “well governed and committed to maintaining and pursuing a bright and positive future.” Steve Foote answered some questions via email for The Chronicle on Tuesday, with topics ranging from his previous exper i ence a n d e d u c a t i o n to what his family thinks about moving from Gulf Shores, AL, to Middle Tennessee. Here’s what he had to say: Why did you choose to apply for the position of city planner with the City of Mt. Juliet? We’ve traveled through Nashville over the years on trips to see relatives in Kentucky and have often stopped in the Franklin area. I’ve also met many people from the Nashville area and they have always spoken favorably about Middle Tennessee. This peaked my interest enough for me to look into the job and do my own research of the area. I was impressed with information about the

government and City that I was able to read on the Mt. Juliet web page. Based on my inquiry, I determined that the City would be a great organization to work for and where a city planner would be welcomed. I also thought that Mt. Juliet would be a great place to live and work. What experiences, background, education and talents do you feel qualify you for the position? I hold

a B.S. degree in Geography from James M a d i s o n University in Virginia, and have 22 years of planning expe r i ence with various cities in Arizona and A l a b a m a . During my career I have served on a citizen

planning board and bicycle advisory committee. I held the positions of President, Vice President, Section Representative, and Conference Chairman with the Alabama Chapter of the American Planning Association. I am a certifi ed planner with the American Institute of Certifi ed Planners. I hope that my varied experiences will be of great value to the City of Mt. Juliet and that I can contribute to its future success. What was your most recent position, where,

and how does that make you a good candidate for MJ’s city planner? My last position was Community Development Director for the City of Gulf Shores, AL, where I worked for 13 years.

In this capacity I led the city’s planning, building, and code enforcement operations. This position and some former positions have given me signifi cant experience with working in fast growth areas and in trying to achieve orderly, quality development and land use patterns. Proper planning is critical to achieving one’s goals, whether an individual or those of a community. While in Gulf Shores I lead the preparation their fi rst comprehensive plan and many area specifi c plans (Intracoastal Waterway, Bon Secour River, and tourist area). These plans have been extremely important in guiding the decision making process for staff and elected offi cials as we reviewed and considered planning and development applications. I have extensive knowledge in the area of pedestrian and bicycle facility design and understand the importance of developing non-motor vehicle paths to improve the livability of a community. Being a part of a young community like Mt. Juliet gives me an opportunity to help formulate and implement great plans for the City of Mt. Juliet. I anticipate that my career experiences will help me play an important role in guiding the city through future challenges.

The Wilson County Fair, presented by Ford Middle Tennessee Dealers, will be August 21-29 and will feature a free concert of Country Music Star Darryl Worley on Monday, August 24, at 7 p.m. at the covered arena. This concert is presented by Burchett Ford Lincoln Mercury of Lebanon. Worley has a great fan base in Middle Tennessee and one of the leading fans is Shirley Brewer of Mt. Juliet. Brewer was recently

in University Medical Center in Lebanon and made it known at the hospital what a great fan of Darryl Worley she is. UMC made the Wilson County Fair Board aware of how much Joni Johnston wanted to meet him, and that was arranged on Monday August 10, at Burchett Ford. Tony Bates, owner of Burchett Ford, arranged for her to meet Worley at the dealership, and it was the highlight of Shirley’s life. She has been a fan of

Worley’s for many years and had once attended his River Run Concert in Savannah, TN. Worley presented her front row seats at his August 24 concert for her and her husband Herschel. Worley said he is proud to be a resident of Wilson County and to be able to be a part of his counties award-winning fair. For more information on the fair or concert please 615-443-2626 or visit www.wilsoncountyfair.net.

Mt. Juliet’s skate park, said by city offi cials to be the only one immediate area, celebrated its grand opening on Saturday, August 8, at Charlie Daniels Park. Called The Crowe’s Nest, the skate park is named after West Wilson Middle School social studies teacher Judy Crowe, who spurred her classes to appeal to Mt. Juliet commissioners to build the park, a place where middle-school aged children could hang out and practice skateboarding, roller-blading, and bike tricks. ~ Photo submitted

Hundreds gathered at Charlie Daniels Park, to offi cially kick of the 2009 youth football and cheerleading season.

Refl ections from anOld Friend

The Dangers of Bullying Now that school is back in session parents will need to be on the lookout for signs of bullying with their children. For example, did you know that bullying is one of the biggest concerns of young people today? Bullying is a serious problem with 8 out of 10 children bullied at some point in their childhood. Bullying happens at school, at home and on the streets. A lot of young people don’t even realize they are making other peoples lives miserable. They think they are just joking in making fun of or bullying someone. The truth is it hurts to be bullied and can change someone’s life for ever. Bullying happens when someone picks on someone and makes their life miserable. Bullying can come in many forms from kicking, smacking, tripping, making fun of, threatening or sending out false messages and rumors about the person over the computer. People have been bullied because of their size, accent, weight, color of their skin, stance on certain issues, interests, or just because they are the new kid on the block or at school. Bullies are often insecure and pick on others to make themselves feel more important and powerful. The sad thing is what a bully doesn’t see. Their bullying can lead to low self-esteem, suicide, revenge and even assault or murder. These are all things that can be avoided. If you are someone you know is being bullied, there is help. If you’re bullied, you should tell someone. It’s very important to get other people involved. If you are being bullied it can feel like the whole world is against you and that you are own your own. Not true! The worst thing to do is to sit back and accept it. It won’t get any better unless you do something about it. If you are the victim of bullying at school you should contact your teacher, the principal or the guidance counselor for help. If the bullying occurs on the streets or away from home you can contact your parents or the police. And if the bullying takes place at home, you need to advise your parents. Bullying is also a problem with adults. Most child bullies grow up to be adult bullies. The only thing that changes is the age of the people they bully. Bullying is not just a kid’s game. It is a practice that ruins lives and causes scars that can last a lifetime. In closing, Help and advice is out there. Don’t accept bullying.
