One anticipated success storyfrom The Markets at Choto isn’ta market or office at all — yetit’s scheduled opening sometimein late spring of 2015 stands tosave residents within a three-mile radius of NorthshoreDrive/Choto Road intersectionalmost $3 million per year.

Groundbreaking for a Rural/Metro Fire Department station,5,000 square feet, on Markets atChoto grounds behind Weigel’s isexpected sometime this month,John Huber, Markets at Chotoowner/developer, said.

It will sit on roughly 14 acressouth and east of the intersec-tion where Markets at Choto isplanning 75,000 square feet ofretail and office space to eventu-

ally be leased, Huber added. As for the estimated

“$2,944,000 million” in savings to5,432 homeowners’ insurancepremiums because they wouldhave a fire station much closerthan before according to Huber,“It’s really amazing how inflatedthe insurance rates are out thereright now,” he added. “Thatarea’s considered Class 10,which effectively means there’sno fire protection out there rightnow as far as the insurance com-panies are concerned.”

Total additional premium pay-ments yearly by those 5,432 resi-dents, because they are Class 10,average $542, Huber said.

“That’s why everybody’s push-ing so hard to have it out there,”he added. “We worked out a dealthat’s a very thin deal at bestfrom a real estate [profit] stand-

point, a landlord standpoint forme. … I felt like it would beworth it to lease it under market[value] to Rural/Metro just toget them out there.

“I do recognize that it wouldbe a huge benefit for the Chotoarea,” Huber said.

The closest Rural/Metro firestation to the area currently isoff Watt Road, Huber said, whichis about one mile north of WattRoad intersection with KingstonPike.

However, “When they comedown McFee Road they can’t getunderneath the railroad [over-pass at Boyd Station Road-Harvey Road intersection lead-ing to Choto] with the firetrucks, Huber added. Althoughthe R/M fire station along

While traffic moves along in the relatively new roundabout at the intersection of Northshore Driveand Choto Road, The Markets of Choto is looking to include retail business and office space onthe property south and east of the intersection (background). That also includes a Rural/Metrofire station to be located behind Weigel’s (background left), with groundbreaking scheduled some-time this month.

While owners of some smallbusinesses in Farragut saidthey had some additional cus-tomers as a result of SmallBusiness Saturday, Nov. 29,some others said business wasslower than Black Friday.

More than 40 businessestook part in Small BusinessSaturday, a part of the ShopFarragut campaign, which is apartnership between FarragutBusiness Alliance and town ofFarragut.

Jesse and Sue Boling, own-ers of Cranberry Hollow, saidtheir business was good dur-ing Small Business Saturday.

Participating in the eventgot the Bolings’ business list-ed on the American Expresswebsite, which gave themmore exposure, Jesse Bolingsaid.

John and Sylvia Elliott ofTellico Village were amongtheir customers.

“I came to support localbusiness,” Sylvia Elliott said.“We support them all the time,but you definitely have to sup-port Small Business Satur-day.”

As part of Small BusinessSaturday, Jesse Boling saidthe store offered a 20 percentdiscount to its patrons.

Another Farragut business,

The Shrimp Dock, also partic-ipated in Small BusinessSaturday.

“Our sales were up from lastyear,” owner Phil Dangel said.

“[Business] has been goodfor us,” Allen Shields, TheShrimp Dock manager, said.“[Small Business Saturday]brings in a lot of local cus-tomers who really appreciategood fish and seafood.”

However, some other busi-nesses found business slowerthan that of Thanksgiving andBlack Friday.

Fares Schlank, owner ofWest Bicycles in the VillageGreen shopping center, saidbusiness on Small BusinessSaturday met his expecta-tions, which was low.

“It’s a tough retail environ-ment,” he added.

However, Schlank said hesupports promotions like ShopFarragut and Small BusinessSaturday.

“When I see a promotionlike Small Business Saturdayand Shop Farragut, I’m onboard with it because it helpspromote my personal vision toserve the community I love,”he said.

“It’s pretty slow,” TanyaHamm, co-owner of EchelonBikes, said. “We were muchbusier yesterday.”

KCSO offers holiday, everyday safety suggestions

While Farragut residents arescurrying about this holiday sea-son, shopping for friends andfamily or traveling, people arewarned they should be aware ofpotential holiday crime.

Knox County Sheriff’s OfficeCapt. Brad Hall, KCSO liaisonwith town of Farragut, said thistime last year there were four res-idential forced burglaries, twobusiness forced burglaries, sevenvehicle burglaries, 19 thefts andseven cases of shoplifting.

So far this year, he said therehas been one residential forcedburglary. There have been twobusiness forced burglaries, fivevehicle burglaries, 21 thefts andone case of shoplifting.

The Farragut community usu-ally sees burglaries in homes andvehicles, as well as shopliftingand stolen vehicles during theholidays, Hall said.

Hall advises people to makesure houses and cars are locked.

“Don’t leave valuables out inthe open, park in a well-lightedarea, don’t let mail pile up if outof town and don’t post your planson social media,” he said.

To stay safe, he said peopleshould walk and park in well-lighted areas and try to be withpeople and pay attention to one’ssurroundings.

“Keep purses and packages asclose to you as possible, parkclose to the business you aregoing to,” Hall said.

If someone is carrying aweapon, he advised that personshould carry the weapon assecurely as possible, adding,“You always want the element ofsurprise when possible.”

Concerning carrying ofweapons Hall said, “As of July 1,people who are legally able to pos-sess a gun under state and federallaw, you can keep a loaded hand-gun, shotgun or rifle in a car ortruck you legally possess.

“Previously, only those withstate-issued handgun carry per-mits could legally keep loaded

firearms in their vehicles. Thosewithout carry permits could keepunloaded firearms in the vehicleif the ammunition was storedseparately.”

Panhandling in parking lotsand on street corners also ismore prevalent during the holi-days.

According to Tennessee CodeAnnotated 39-17-307, a personcommits an offense if he know-ingly or recklessly “obstructs ahighway, street, sidewalk, rail-way, waterway, elevator aisle orhallway to which the public, or asubstantial portion of the public,has access.”

The person will be in violation ifhe “disobeys a reasonable requestor order to move” by a person inauthority, state law states.

Hall advised people should notpartake in panhandling.

“Give to legitimate charities,”he said.

“Call police if someone is caus-ing a problem,” he added. “Aproperty owner can give a tres-pass warning if necessary.”

Campbell Station Road couldrespond from another direction,“The insurance companies areconcerned it takes too long toget there,” Huber said.

Retail growth by The Marketsat Choto is expected to get a bigboost by the late October open-ing of a new roundabout at the

Northshore-Choto intersection. “It’s one of the reasons

Rural/Metro wanted to locateout there,” Huber said about theroundabout.

With one 5,000 square footretail “spec” building to alsobreak ground in December andbe built by spring along Choto aspart of a “7-acre phase one”building plan, Huber said theretail outlook for Markets at

Choto “is looking very good, actu-ally. … We think the market isslowly recovering, and it’s recov-ered enough to where we feellike it’s a good time to go aheadand build.”

By the end of 2015, “I’d like tohave three or four buildings up,”Huber said about filling “spec”buildings that would necessitatefurther construction.

Nevertheless, co-owner KellyHamm said the biking businessis doing well.

“We are planning an openhouse this holiday season,” hesaid, adding, “We hope we aregoing to be busy today(Saturday).”

Ashley Flores, general man-

ager of Buttermilk Sky PieShop, said business was typicalfor a Saturday and added shedid not know if Small BusinessSaturday generated more busi-ness for the shop.

Neseman2014 marks the eighth year for

the Shop Farragut – once knownas the Buy in Farragut – holidaycampaign. Originally spearhead-ed by the town of Farragut, thissix-week program is now admin-istered by the Farragut BusinessAlliance (farragutbusiness.com)with funding provided by theT o w n .Although as p e c i a lemphasis isplaced onthe holidayseason, thec a m p a i g nnow runsthroughoutthe year aswe encour-age Far-ragut resi-dents tokeep theirSales Taxdollars at work for the Town allthe time.

The Shop Farragut holidaycampaign is beneficial for bothcitizens and businesses. Citizenssave time, money and gas as theysupport our local economy. Then,Farragut businesses invest theirearnings into supporting ourschools and local non-profitorganizations. Ultimately, thesingle most important outcome

of this effort is the local SalesTax dollars that are generated tosupport the Town’s annual budg-et. In Fiscal Year 2014, localSales Tax accounted for$5,579,605 in revenue, or 56 per-cent of our budget. SinceFarragut does not collect a sepa-rate municipal property tax —nor do we receive any portion ofthe Knox County Property Tax —these Sales Tax dollars areimperative to the existence ofthe Town.

The town of Farragut is able toprovide exceptional services inlarge part due to the commit-ment of our businesses to partic-ipate in Shop Farragut and ourcitizens to shop and dine here.We take pride in these servicessuch as road improvements;improvements and additions toour parks, greenways and side-walks; community events andprograms; snow removal; capitalprojects and much more. Myhope is that we can keep thismomentum going this year aswell as for many years to come.

The Advocates of IndependentBusiness (indiebizadvocates.org) — a coalition of 14 groupscoordinated by the Institute forLocal Self-Reliance (ilsr.org) —has put together some interest-ing facts about shopping local forthe holidays that confirm the

RalphMcGill

FarragutMayor

positive impact on localeconomies.

• Six in 10 consumers intendto shop locally this year.

• In 2013, shoppers spent $5.7billion on Small BusinessSaturday.

• Independent businessesreported an average increase insales of 5.3 percent in 2013.

• Ninety-two percent of retailspending is expected to go tobrick-and-mortar stores inOctober through December asopposed to online spending.

• On average, $48 of every$100 spent at independentretailers stays in the local econ-omy as opposed to $14 of every$100 spent at a national chain

store. On a final note, men should

mark their calendars forThursday, Dec. 18, beginning at 5p.m. for Shop Farragut’s new“Men’s Night Out.” Visit farragut-mensnightout.com for details. Ihope to see you shopping aroundTown this holiday!

• There is a gas station in the[Farragut area] that I feelshould be avoided until theyspend some money to clean it up.Half of the lights are burnt out,pot holes all in the parking lot.This gas station is truly an eyesore, possibly if us locals stoppedshopping there for fuel and storesales, they would have no otherchoice than to spend the moneycleaning up this location.

• To the caller who com-plained about the Farragut FoodFestival they obviously did notattend the event. It was spectac-ular. I heard nothing but ravereviews and that everyone therehad a fantastic time. Also, withmy experience with other eventsit costs them thousands andthousands of dollars to pull thatoff. Have you ever rented largetents, lights, stages, tables,chairs, linens and other eventsupplies? They are not inexpen-

sive and the planning can takehours and hours. Also, it doesn’ttake a whole lot of effort, really,going to the event website, as amatter of fact to learn thatadvance tickets were $25 andtickets at the gate were $30.Nowhere did they advertise thatall of the proceeds benefitedSecond Harvest. It’s my under-standing that this event was afundraiser for the FarragutBusiness Alliance, which is anon-profit organization locatedright here in Farragut. I am gladwe have the Alliance to helpincrease the Sales Tax dollarscollected by the Town. I wouldmuch rather have our communi-ty’s amenities and services sup-ported by Sales Tax dollars thanhave to pay a property tax.Lastly, all of the advertising I sawspecifically stated that 20 per-cent of the VIB ticket saleswould benefit Second Harvest

Food Bank of East Tennessee.VIB tickets were $100 each and Iunderstand that they did not sellout. I also understand thatSecond Harvest was thrilled withthe partnership. So, in thefuture, if you are going to teardown an organization and anevent that does so much for thiscommunity, I highly recommendat least getting your informationcorrect. To the Farragut Busi-ness Alliance, those of us who“get it,” and know the amount ofwork you put into the events forFarragut businesses and resi-dents, you and your volunteersare greatly appreciated.

• I live in Belleaire subdivisionand I just want to take thisopportunity to publicly thank thesixth-grade students of theConcord Christian School fortheir day of service to our neigh-borhood. The hard and meticu-lous work they did in my yard has

raised my spirits and has givenme another thing to be thankfulfor at this Thanksgiving time.Bless you all.

• There needs to be somethingdone about people who try toturn left out of the CrackerBarrel onto Campbell Station. Isee too many near wrecks. Theycan exit by turning left ontoTurkey Creek Road [ParksideDrive]. They need to do away theleft-hand turn before somebodygets hurt.

• My husband and I attendedthe first Farragut Food Festival.And the question was askedthen, where does the money go?We never got an answer. That wasthe last time we attended.

Editor’s Note: The first eventunder the name Farragut FoodFestival was held this year atRenaissance | Farragut. It is themajor fundraiser for FarragutBusiness Alliance. Second

Harvest Food Bank received adonation of 20 percent of VIBticket sales. Prior to this yearTaste of Farragut was held inthe parking lot of the old Krogersupermarket. The first year thatevent was held proceeds afterexpenses benefited ChildHelp aswas publicized in farragutpressand other media. Followingthat first year Taste of Farragutbecame the main fundraiser forthe newly formed FBA.

Plans are in the works todevelop the former Phillips 66convenience store, located atthe corner of Kingston Pike andN o r t hC a m p b e l lS t a t i o nRoad.

Currently,those planswould callfor 75 per-cent of the1.2 acres ofspace tobecome medical and the restwould be retail, ParkerBartholomew, manager ofHatcher Hill, LLC, said.

“That could be a retail store ora restaurant,” Bartholomewadded about 25 percent of thespace. “We are not exactly sureyet.”

However, Bartholomew saidhe does have a couple of poten-tial buyers for the property.

“We’re trying to see if we can

get something submitted [toFarragut Municipal PlanningCommission] this month, but itwill likely be January before weare close to a final version,” hesaid, adding construction wouldnot begin until sometime in 2015.

“A lot of the timing will bedetermined by the regulations,”he added. “Right now, we don’tknow the architectural guide-lines that we are going to have tobuild to, so we hope the firstquarter of 2015 we will be able toclose on the property and startconstruction immediately there-after.”

Bartholomew is trying to sellthe space for property owner Mr.Zips of Texas.

“They just want to sell theproperty,” he said. “Anything thatcan sell the property, they arefor.”

Bartholomew said he is propos-ing a medical building and retailspace because those types ofbusinesses would be able to paythe high amount of rent thatwould be required and those useswould go well at that location.

The site is in the downtown cen-ter district, which town ofFarragut authorities currently aredeveloping.

Planning Commissioners re-viewed FMPC ordinances for thatdistrict again during its Nov. 20meeting, rehashing its discus-sions concerning allowing drive-throughs in the district. Whilesome, such as CommissionerNoah Myers, are against allowing

businesses to have drive-throughfacilities, Alderman Ron Honkensaid he did not think drive-throughs should be ruled out ofthe district.

Bartholomew attended the Nov.20 meeting, he said.

“[The ordinance changes]would affect that property, so Iwent to discuss the drive-throughs and other aspects of thetown center ordinance. They are

important to that piece of proper-ty,” he said. “The Town has newrules and regulations that areguidelines for that site.”

During the FMPC meeting,Bartholomew submitted a siteplan showing a possible coffeeshop and medical building, but headded the plan was preliminary.He told commissioners not to besurprised if a drive-through isincluded in the proposed plans.

Speculation that the oldKroger building, 11240Kingston Pike, Farragut, wouldbe converted into a Town com-munity center seem all butdashed. The building isexpected to come alive soon,with plans in the works for anindoor laser tag amusementvenue to resemble the formerBattlefield Knoxville accordingto sources. However, thefuture owner has yet to applyfor a business permit or put aname to the business.Construction plans still are inreview from town of Farragut,Sue Stuhl, Parks and LeisureServices director, said.

end, 35 against HVA, as HardinValley saw the Class A BlueDevils from Roane County stormback from a nine-point fourthquarter deficit to take a 79-78lead after a steal and lay-up with55 seconds to play.

Then came HVA’s guards torestore order just in time duringopening round play in Anderson

County ThanksgivingTournament at ACHS Friday, Nov.28, as the Hawks ended with an8-0 run to win 86-79.

“They actually let it get toorough,” said Blaine Shockley,HVA senior guard who scored ateam-high 20 points — includingthe team’s last six also featuringa key steal and rebound in theclosing seconds — about theofficials. “Everybody was gettingchippy. But we came out andplayed a little bit stronger in thesecond half.”

Meanwhile, the Lady Hawkstook control early against thehomestanding Lady Mavericksand, in a much less physical con-test, won convincingly 55-41behind 18 points from seniorwing Brooklyn Battle and 13from freshman post AbbeyCornelius. Symphony Buxton,

reserve post, scored nine. The HVA girls then defeated

Greenback 48-35 Saturday toimprove their record to 6-1.

“I thought for the most part weplayed well,” Lady Hawks headcoach Jennifer Galloway saidabout the win against AndersonCounty (More on the HVA girlslater in this story).

TwoCalebClevengerfree

throws with 46 seconds remain-ing gave Hardin Valley an 80-79lead. A steal and lay-up fromShockley made it 82-79 at the 33-second mark.

Two Shockley free throws fol-lowing his critical defensiverebound upped the lead to 84-79

Classic toend athree-game skid

to start the season.Behind a game-high 23 points

from 6-foot-2 junior post JaidenMcCoy, the FHS girls rolled to a58-37 home victory againstCocke County Saturday evening,Nov. 29.

“It was pretty rough inside.Theywereattackingme from

all angles I guess you could say,”McCoy said. “And they werehacking pretty hard. But I fin-ished through it.”

As a team, “We’re improving,we’re a lot better,” McCoyadded. “We’re playing together,and we’re actually, like, realizingour strengths and who can shootit and who’s better at, like, driv-ing it. We’re adapting well.”

Jason Mayfield, Lady Admiralshead coach, said about McCoy,“We haven’t had a post playerquite like that” in terms of “sizeand physicality.”

“So we’re finding ways to gether the ball more and get hermore involved. And she’s learn-ing, too. … When to post andwhen to get into the flow of ouroffense.”

Overall, “It goes back to justconfidence,” Mayfield said abouthis team’s two-game winningstreak. “You come home and ithelps. You make a couple ofshots and it helps.”

Coming off a 21-point per-formance in a 68-56 openinground Classic victory againstSouth-Doyle one day before,Farragut senior wing/post AnnaWoodford scored 10 againstCocke County.

Other Lady Admirals scorersSaturday were Annie McMurrywith nine (three 3-point fieldgoals), Maegan Hudson seven,Kristen Freeman four, Sue Kim-Yun three and MackenzieGignac two.

For one half, a Scott Countyguard shredded Bearden’sdefense like no opposing play-er in Mark Blevins’ 40-plusyears as a college and high

“Ste-phen Butts, he had 33 at half-time against us. … Nobodyhas ever had a half againstme like that,” said Blevins,whose Bulldogs still won 78-59 during Gray InsuranceThanksgiving Classic atCampbell County High SchoolFriday, Nov. 28. “We were

With Woodford guardingCocke County sharpshooterMakayla Valentine in Farragut’sbox-and-one defense, “She canreally, really play, and Anna did agreat job on her,” Mayfield said.“And then Kate McMurry camein there off the bench and guard-ed her, too.”

Cocke County fell to 3-4despite four 3-point field goalsfrom Valentine, who scored ateam high 14.

“Farragut always impressesme with their continuity andtheir organization,” FightingLady Cocks head coach JeremyByrd said. “They seem to be welldisciplined.”

Defensively against South-Doyle, “We were decent, we wereaverage,” Mayfield said. “Todaywe were much better defensive-ly.”

With the Lady Hawks alternat-ing between a zone and man-to-man defenses, “I thought that wewere able to make some in-gameadjustments based on theiroffense,” Jennifer Galloway said.“They’re a very disciplined team.… In turn, we had to be very dis-ciplined on defense as well. ... Inthe second half we stuck withman[-to-man] and a zone press.”

“They play a really good zone,and so we knew we’d just have towork the ball around and get,like, really good open shots,”

Taylor Bishop, senior point guardwho scored five points, said. “Ithought we were really disci-plined on that.”

“I thought Taylor did a good jobmanaging our offense and gettingus in the correct defense,”Jennifer Galloway said. “She’s alittle general on the floor andeverybody is looking to her forleadership.”

“I think we were successfulbecause we stuck to our game-plan and we knew we had toadjust to a 2-3 defense. We’reused to playing against man[to-man],” Battle said.

Mike Ellis, ACHS head coach,said Battle “shot the ball well.”

The Lady Mavericks fell to 4-5.Against Greenback, Battle led

With a built-in rodeo on theirfamily farm in Concord, theFletcher sisters from PraterFarm have been winning awardsas lifelong rodeo competitorsfrom childhood into their early20s.

Already extremely close-knitthrough two years together atFarragut High School, LucindaFletcher (FHS Class of 2010) andNatalie Fletcher (Class of 2012)ended up as collegiate rodeoteammates for two years at TheUniversity of Tennessee, Martin,in Pulaski.

Though saying Lucinda turneddown UTM Rodeo head coachJohn Luthi’s scholarship offer,enrolling at The University ofTennessee, Knoxville in part tostay near Natalie and her family,the younger Fletcher sister gotthe same offer two years laterfrom Luthi.

“I decided it was an opportuni-ty I needed to take,” saidNatalie, now a junior at UTM whoin addition to earning AcademicAll-American honors as a fresh-man and sophomore earned a

spot in National College Finalsin breakaway roping her fresh-man season. “And [Lucinda]went with me, a last-minutedecision.

“We loved it; we lived together,we did everything together,”N a t a l i ea d d e d .“We’re likebest, best offriends. Wee n c o u r a g eeach otherin and out ofthe arena.She’s helpedme so muchin both ways.… She would push me and Iwould push her back, and it’shelp us both to get to where weare today.”

Lucinda, also strongest inbreakaway roping, graduatedUTM last spring with a degree inanimal science.

About missing Lucinda, “Ican’t describe it; I went from liv-ing across the hallway from herto living six hours from me,”Natalie said. “We talk non-stop.”

“They’re a close-knit group,those two are,” Luthi said. “I

know it’s been an adjustment forthem to be apart. … I image it’sbeen pretty stressful for her andLucinda both.”

Lucinda is back at “runningthe family farm” having appliedto “physician’s assistant” schoolat UTK, Natalie said.

Outside of UTM, both Lucindaand Natalie “compete in rodeosacross the southeast every otherweekend,” Natalie, also seekinga degree in animal science fromUTM in hopes of becoming a vet-erinarian, said.

About Natalie earningNational College Finals, “You’vegot to end up top three in theregion to get that accom-plished,” Luthi said. “There’ssome 60 breakaway ropers in theregion.”

“It was huge … it was wonder-ful,” Natalie said, adding thatsoon after arriving at UTM, Luthi“sat met down and told me, ‘youneed to make goals.’”

“She’s what we call an all-around competitor … definitelyin an above average way,” Luthisaid. “She’s a great competitorand very determined, works very

Town cracks down; substance abuse still rising■ ALAN SLOAN

[email protected]

While the town of Farragutbegan cracking down on illegalsales of alcohol a couple of yearsago — creating an ordinance toadd citations on businessesalready violating state and federallaw — prescription medicationand alcohol abuses remain on therise.

“David [Smoak] kind of re-wroteFarragut’s regulations, which hadbeen in place for a long time,”Karen Pershing, with Knox CountyMetropolitan Drug Commission,said about the Town administrator.“That was probably the biggestsuccess of the whole [UnderageDrinking] policy panel meeting [in2012], was the fact that Farragut’swere really strengthened and therelationship between the Sheriff’s[Office], who actually doesenforcement for Farragut, and theBeer Board in Farragut.”

Pershing was keynote speakerduring The Rotary Club ofFarragut’s Wednesday, Oct. 23,meeting at Fox Den County Club.

Roughly one-third of KnoxCounty high school students “arereporting in the last 30 daysthey’ve used alcohol,” Pershingsaid. “… When I was younger itseemed like teenagers drank justto get a buzz so they feel a littlemore comfortable socially. Nowkids drink to black-out. It’s justreally scary.”

However, “Prescription drugs isprobably the most challengingsubstance abuse issue we’ve everfaced. … Now in this country wehave more drug overdose deathsdue to prescription drug abusethan we have for automobile acci-dents,” Pershing said. “… Nowwe’re seeing the 18 to 24-year-oldage category have the largestincrease in overdose deaths. …This particular epidemic knows noeconomic, social or racial bound-

aries. All age groups. That’s whatmakes it a little more challeng-ing.”

In 2013 the state’s drug problemspilled over to affect newbornbabies, with 921 born with neona-tal abstinence according toPershing. “… The thing we’remost concerned about with babiesis the long-term implications. …They have a greater propensity ofbecoming addicted to drugs oralcohol.”

Moreover, “You’d be surprisedright now of how many women wetalk to whose doctors actually pre-scribe them these medicationswhen they are pregnant,” Pershingadded. “We’ve got some educationto do in the medical community,too.”

Knox County should brace forthe long-range effects of neonatalabstinence. “I keep telling Dr.[Jim] McIntyre [Jr.], ‘These

hard.“Probably her main event is

the breakaway roping, but she’spretty talented and does otherevents, too,” Luthi added. “Pro-bably goat-tying. She also teamropes and she runs barrels.”

Beyond her talent, “She’sbeen a very strong leader on theteam and still is,” Luthi said.“Last year she got elected fromthe region … as Ozark RegionStudent director. … a studentrepresentative type thing. …That gives her an opportunity togo to the national board meet-ings in the winter and thenational board meetings in the

summer.” Despite not having “much

luck yet” in her first two UTMrodeos of the 2014 fall season,

Luthi added, “That’s not unusu-al,” even for a top performer.

“I got hurt at one of our col-lege rodeos in last spring, so I had knee surgery over thesummer,” Natalie said about an

injury while goal tying as sheworks to make a 100 percentrecovery.

Looking ahead, “She’d becapable of making it a careerif she wanted to,” Luthi said.“The sky’s the limit for Natalie;very smart girl, great personali-ty. … Comes from a very qualityfamily.”


On the field where he playedtrumpet at least twice as the“enemy” with Bearden HighSchool Marching Band in 2004 and2006, Alex White came back toFarragut High School’s Bill ClaboField in October and saw his bandsteal the show.

White, a 2007 BHS graduate whowas drum major for The Universityof Tennessee Pride of theSouthland Band his senior year,brought his Siegel High SchoolMarching Band to annualAdmiral’s Cup Invitational to com-pete among 15 bands Saturday,

Oct. 18.Not only was White’s band

named Grand Champion, but italso earned seven out of a possiblenine first-place awards in thisfundraiser event courtesy ofFarragut High School MarchingAdmirals Band, 135 members,which played its “The Road NotTaken” program in exhibition toclose the performances.

“This was homecoming for me,”White, in his second year at Siegeland first as band director, said.

About his 163-member band,White said, “These kids workextremely hard all the time and inevery rehearsal, that’s the reasonwe’re successful.

“A kind of funny story, my firsttime seeing the Siegel band was in2004 at Bearden, we lost to thisband,” White added. “It’s kind ofironic I’m leading this group now.They’re a great group of kids.”

The schools were broken into sixmain categories according to size(Classes 1A through 6A), which inanother round of judging became tw-o main groups, Small Division (1A -2A and 3A) and Large Division (Cla-sses 4A, 5A and 6A). Siegel joined Elizabethton as the 6A schools competing.

’Twas post Christmas morningwhen all through the place

The family was reeling from theChristmas rat race

The stockings were gutted, thegifts all unwrapped

There was chaos, confusion andenergy sapped

Mom was in her jammies withunruly hair

The kidsfull of ca-ndy,there wassmoke in theair

From thethunderousfire, Dad’s cr-amming, TheCause

Of paperand boxesfrom his ar-sonist claws

And out ofthe chimneyand up on the roof

Hot chunks of packaging fieryproof

That Christmas was over and sowas the fun

The only thing left was to dial 911Outside were the sirens the fire

truck arrivedThey hosed off the roof and the

house did surviveBut inside the home as dry as a

thistleThe Christmas tree threatened

to launch like a missileWhile mom made a pile of stuff to

returnDad kept on adding to the fire-

place burnThe kids with their soon-to-be

discarded stuffHadn’t a clue when enough was

enough“Get’em to want it so much that

they buyStuff they don’t need and never

ask why,”The result of this brainwashing

marketing trap?Shelf-sagging, drawer-bulging,

closet-jamming crapToys in containers no one can get

into Not with scissors, a crowbar, a

blow torch or GinsuSo how in the world can this

chaos be nipped?No one wants his Christmas

wings clipped.Here’s the solution all tied up in

a bowThe secret of Christmas in a song

’Twas the aftermath of Christmasnessee School Board Association’sStatewide Student RecognitionAward. The award “recognizes stu-dents who have distinguishedthemselves in academics, commu-nity service and leadership,” aKnox County Schools press releasestated.

“I’m just trying to get more stu-dents involved in their local educa-tion politics,” Hasan said. “I thinkthese issues are things they thinkabout but oftentimes they don’tnecessarily know how to go aboutvoicing their opinions or changingpolicies they don’t like.”

As a result, “I’m really trying tovisit as many schools in the countyas I can — definitely every [pub-lic] high school — by the end ofthe year,” Hasan, BHS Class of2015 president “all four years,”said. “Just so I can meet with stu-dent groups and get more direct

feedback from them. … I reallyonly have the perspective ofBearden. I’m trying to get a broad-er perspective.”

With his Bearden YGCC club,“We meet once a week and we dis-cuss current political issues,”Hasan said, adding a statewideYGCC gathering is held every“March or April at the stateCapital in Nashville. You go there and you serve as a delegate,it’s like you presume to be a state Senator or a state legislator.And you write ‘bills’ and debatepolitics.”

About a year ago “I decided tospeak out about issues likeCommon Core and teacher evalua-tion,” Hasan, 18, said. “I stayedinvolved. I spoke out a second timeand I regularly started attending[Board] meetings and readingmore about education policy. Itturned into me wanting to be moreactive in local politics, particularlyon the Board, and I read that there

was a student position on theBoard of Education. And so Iapplied … and I got that back inMay.”

Hasam said his “term” started inJuly. “Since then I’ve representedthe interests of students in KnoxCounty Schools,” he added. “… I’mreally just trying to relay opinionsof students that I’ve talked to notonly at Bearden, but I have friendsat other schools in the county thatI often talk to about youth things.I’ve often used direct quotes fromthem in Board discussions.”

For example, “One of the thingsI’m working on to try and get stu-dent feedback is the potentialswitch to a balance calendar next[school] year, which is also knownas year-round school,” Hasan, 17,said. “… Students have e-mailedme about issues like dress codeand, maybe, ways we could moreequitably enforce and implementthat. … Most of the people whohave e-mailed me, I don’t know.”

same: To thank all of the familyfor their love and support duringthe traumatic times before, dur-ing and after the transplant.

“I look forward to the annualcelebration more than I look for-ward to my birthday,” he added.

“I was never afraid of dying,”Beard said. “I found out no matterhow you feel about dying, whenyou get close to death, God getsclose to you.

“God will be there,” he added.Beard is the father of the late

Lisa Beard, Missy Fierley, PaigeDeFreece and Dustye McCarty.He is the grandfather of 12 andgreat-grandfather of three.

In 1994, Beard had a hearttransplant. Since then, his familymembers said that transplantgave them more years to enjoyactivities with one another.

“I am very thankful,” McCarty,said. “We’ve been able to go tomovies and to the Splash Countrytogether and white water raftingwith dad and the kids.”

“We’re blessed every day wehave him,” Fierley said. “None ofus could imagine life withouthim.”

Twenty years ago Beard hadsix grandchildren, Fierley added.Now, he has 12 grandchildren andthree gre-at-grandchildren.

“One thing I remember is heasked, from his hospital bed, if weagreed with his having the trans-plant,” wife, Prissy Beard said.“He wanted to know what wethought of it.”

“My wife had been beside methrough the entire journey,” hesaid. “She had fixed me a bedsidepantry with all my favorite drinksand had endured some scarymoments as well. She was againby my side as we accepted theheart.

“My whole family had time tomake it to the hospital by thetime I began to roll down the hallto surgery,” he said, adding hismost vivid memory was seeing hisfamily members lining both sidesof the hallway while he was rolleddown to surgery.

DeFreece said she rememberedvisiting Beard in the hospital.

“He looked 30 years older thanwhen I last saw him,” DeFreecesaid. “He told me what a wonder-ful daughter I was. He was sayinggoodbye.

“Then, he started improving,”she added. “That impacted me. Irealized how much of a blessing itwas to be able to have all thesememories from the past 20 years.”

At the time of Beard’s trans-plant, he was 52. In April 1994, hesaid he felt ill so he was examinedby a doctor.

“He examined me and, ratherashen-faced, said my heart wasseverely enlarged, ordered me tothe hospital and, prophetically,said I had some major medicalprocedures in the future,” Beardsaid.

“For the next four months, Ihad several medical tests andbegan taking some powerful pre-scription drugs. In August, withcomplications developing, I wassent to Atlanta by ambulance forevaluation as a heart transplantrecipient. I would pass away with-in a year without one.”

Pershing said any attempt tolegalize medicinal marijuana usein Tennessee is an issue “we’revery concerned about becausemedical marijuana is a slipperyslope to recreational use.”

Moreover, “There is no medicaluse for marijuana,” she added.“There have been no FDA clinicalstudies out there.”

The effects are more harmfulwhen youth use marijuana.“When you introduce marijuanato a not yet fully mature brain itresponds very differently than itdoes in a mature adult brain. Inmany cases it leads them to useother more powerful drugs lateron,” Pershing said.
