[email protected]

Emcee Erik Gerhardt listedscores of accomplishments, leav-ing no stone unturned, for eightFarragut High School AthleticHall of Fame inductees in theFHS Commons Saturday, Feb. 1.

However, speeches combininggratefulness and humor frominductees Pete Billingsley (Classof 1972) and Michael McKenry(2003) stole the evening duringthe second annual FHS Hall ofFame Ceremony, which honoredits Class of 2014.

“Everybody in the Class of2014, I’m completely blessed tostand beside you,” said McKenry,an All-state Admirals catcherbefore starting much of two sea-sons behind the plate with MajorLeague Baseball’s PittsburghPirates.

McKenry joined Billingsley(All-state basketball) and fellowhonorees Andy Baksa (Class of2002, track and field, cross coun-try); Marvena Almond Ruddy(1992, track and field, basket-ball), Jessi Miller Metcalf (2000,volleyball), Jenny McGrathWeaver (1988, swimming) and

coaches Scott McKenzie (1981-2010, track and field, golf, foot-ball, basketball, baseball,wrestling) and Jerry Cannon(1966-88, basketball).

McKenry referenced graduat-ed Admirals who return to FHSas coaches, including the latebaseball assistant Scott Dean,who was remembered earlier inthe evening after his death lessthan one week earlier. “It’s acommon theme at this school:people seem to come back,”McKenry said. “It starts with thatrich tradition. Not just in athlet-ics, but in academics.

“When I came to Farragut HighSchool I was not a good student.… kind of a lost soul,” McKenryadded. “… I had a lot of teachersand coaches that really pouredinto my life and really taught mehow to be a good student.”

Those singled out includedTommy Pharr, former FHS base-ball head coach, for being “a bigpart” in helping strengthenMcKenry’s Christian faith.

Speakingat a SouthK n o x v i l l egun clubevent inDecember, “I was amazed howmany people from West Knoxvilleand Farragut were in attendanceat that meeting,” Johns, a

Farragut resident who is an out-spoken gun rights advocate andavid hunter, said. “I recognized alot of the people, and we had adiscussion after the meeting,‘Wouldn’t it be nice if somethinglike this could be done in WestKnoxville.’”

Starting with “an organizationmeeting” Monday, Jan. 6, whilehaving “a list of about 30” inter-ested club members, Johns said,“It’s something I’m puttingtogether pretty quick, but we’repretty excited about it. It’s goingto have a consistent following.”

“But most importantly, inFarragut there’s a lot of hunters,a lot of outdoors people … lawenforcement,” Johns added.“There just hasn’t been anopportunity for people to come

in this part of Town to gatherand bring in speakers to talkabout this.

“Our goal is to find people tonetwork and to trade and createnew friendships for hunting bud-dies. We also want to welcome allages to Gander Mountain tocheck it out.”

Planning to have “three 20-minute speakers” per meetingaccording to Johns, club meet-ings are set from 6:30 to 8 p.m.the second Monday of eachmonth at Gander Mountain offParkside Drive in Turkey Creek.“That’s a great strategic locationto have meetings,” Johns said.

Developer suit againstTown withdrawn


Threatening to call “a lot ofpeople from the town of Farragutthat were going to be brought inas witnesses” in his Split RailFarm subdivision developmentlawsuit, Matthew Varney said heand town officials recently“reached a settlement.”

“This thing got hammered out[the week of Jan. 20-24]between the attorneys. Tom Hale[Town attorney] basically agreedto settle this thing and put it tobed,” Varney, a localdeveloper/consultant, addedabout plat approval roadblockshe said he’s encountered,

prompting a lawsuit filed inNovember 2013 in Knox CountyCircuit Court.

However, Hale said, “Therewas no settlement, they justwithdrew the lawsuit [Jan. 24]. Ithink they came to the conclu-sion that it was a bad idea. … Ididn’t agree to anything.”

Hale emphasized town ofFarragut did not compromisewith Varney, junior developmentpartner with Daniel Burton,owner of Farmstead Develop-ments, LLC, of Murfreesboro.

KCSO arrests two in burglary string■ ALAN SLOAN

[email protected]

Two of Farragut’s oldest andlargest subdivisions were target-ed during a string of burglariesspanning roughly three months,and resulting in more than$10,000 worth of stolen itemsrecovered so far in pawned jew-elry.

That’s according to Capt. JeffPalmer, Knox County Sheriff’sOffice Patrol Division and liaisonto Farragut, who added KSCO isconfident that this rash of bur-glaries in Fox Den and VillageGreen subdivisions is over fol-lowing a pair of arrests Monday,Jan. 16.

“We arrested Kevin Howard,”Palmer said of aggravated bur-glary and felony theft chargesagainst this 59 year old. He wasbeing held on a $27,500 bond inKnox County Detention Facility.

“Detectives say he kicked in

the glass in back doors and tookjewelry, which he then sold togold dealers and pawn shops.According to records, he pawned47 items since Nov. 1, 2013, forover $4,000,” a KCSO pressrelease stated.

“And charged his girlfriend,Deborah Rau, with felony theft.… Helping him pawn” thealleged stolen items, Palmer saidabout this 51 year old. “She’sfully cooperating. They’ve gottena lot of information from her.”She was being held in KnoxCounty Jail in a $2,500 bond.“She sold 24 items for $1,200,”the press released stated.

Howard “was wearing us outthere in Fox Den and VillageGreen,” Palmer said. “He wasdoing the afternoon burglaries.… It turns out he was using thewalkway there on [Fox DenCountry Club] golf course.

“And I’m not sure about this,but it looks like he maybe even

parked at Campbell StationLibrary and walked over intoVillage Green from there andperformed at least one burglary,”Palmer added.

“What led us to him was[KCSO] Det. Ellen Nauss made aconnection with things he waspawning and the stolen jewelry.And a couple more of the detec-tives that were working the bur-glaries down there started com-paring, and were able to tie himinto a few more of the burglaries.And we recovered more proper-ty.”

Pawning almost 200 miles tothe north, “He went as far asLexington, Ky., to pawn some ofhis stuff,” Palmer said.

Palmer said Rau “wasn’tcharged with burglary because[detectives] really think she did-n’t know about the burglaries, orat the very least didn’t partici-

pointed what Varney said wasthe developers’ responsibility“for a 2,700-foot long roadway[on Everett Road] that goes fromthe entrance to the neighbor-hood all the way down to SmithRoad.” Walking trail require-ments also are at issue.

The road issue “seemed to bethe big point of the lawsuit,”Hale said.

While Varney referred to theTown requiring he and Burton“to build them a road,” Haleemphasized the Town is respon-sible for all Everett Road con-struction at issue.

However, Hale added thedevelopers’ are required to pay aroad improvement fee. “It’s like$3,200 per dwelling unit or perlot in the subdivision,” adding upthe roughly $160,000, “which isabout a tenth of the cost of theroad.”

That total cost “is in excess ofa million dollars,” Hale said.

Varney said he’s agreed to paythe Town the $160,000, butlabeled it a “developmentimpact fee.”

Hale added, “It’s a fair num-ber, and in our view completelywithin what the law allows. …The fee was calculated on thebasis of the amount of trafficthat would be generated by thedevelopment compared to all theother developable property onEverett Road.”

Varney listed bigger subdivi-sions such as Andover,Saddleridge, Fox Run andBridgemore where no such roadfee demands were place ondevelopers.

“What did you require them todo?” Varney said he’s asked Townofficials. “Nothing.”

“Why are we building them aroad?”

Hale said the subdivisionsVarney listed are along roads“that have already been built”sufficient to handle the traffic.

Hale added these EverettRoad improvements weren’t anecessity “until somebody buildsa development out there. … It’sgoing to increase the traffic toand from that area.”

With “just under 50 acres” atSplit Rail, Varney said he andBurton plan to develop 48 lots inits first phase.

In the developers’ current pre-liminary plat, Split Rail’s walk-ing trail “has been approved aspart of the Town’s greenway sys-tem,” Hale said about the Town-required asphalt surface.

However, Varney said the walk-ing trails “are going to be whatwe want them to be made out of:wood chips.”

To change this, “They’re goingto have to come back and file anamended preliminary plat,” Halesaid.

Looking ahead, Varney said, “Ihope we’ll get the plat approvedby February or March,” addingthat as of late January, “It’staken 14 months to get a platapproval.”

• Is Farragut Market guilty ofselling beer to a minor?Absolutely, yes as expressed [bythe owner’s] guilty plea. Was theboard “unfair” as [the owner]claims? I have to agree with that,there were two offenses, theyshould have simply closed [it]down. “I am trying to be aresponsible vendor,” [the owner]claims, now that is absurd. As faras selling alcohol to minors youdo not “try,” you succeed or suf-fer the consequences. ...

• No way I can agree or dis-agree with Mr. Peters statementsabout local police departmentlacking in the case of his burgla-ry. Not enough facts, plus my per-sonal perception [is] that thelocal cops provide very goodservices to our community.Absolutely, outstanding in mycase. Also want to state thatwhile it’s his right to do so andfeel safe, Mr. Peters took anincreased risk by keeping suchvaluables in what sounds like arather small safe (400 poundunit that fits in a closet soundslike small to me) in such an obvi-

ous place. Spending some to rentan adequate safety deposit boxat a local bank might have beenbetter. It’s near impossible toprove ownership of gold/silver orcash once it has been taken, andnot easy to recover bonds evenwith all the pertinent data, sowhy did he choose to increasethe risk? Hindsight is always20/20 and Mr. Peters I am sure isdistressed. I hope he will recoverand that the financial conse-quences are not too hard on him.

Farragut Middle School’s Android Architectsbroke new ground during annual FIRST LEGOLeague East Tennessee Championship inCookeville Dec. 6.

In the category of Programming tiny robots,Android claimed the school’s first-ever top statefinish as led by eight students.

“They were very excited, some jumping up and

down and screaming,” David Waldrupe, a sev-enth-grade science teacher who served as schoolsponsor said. “We’ve got some pretty sharp kids.But then again, we were going up against somepretty sharp kids across the state.”

Programming “is one of major ones for theLEGO League,” Waldrupe added.

Almost 200 children from ScottCounty are receiving a blessingfrom St. John Neumann CatholicChurch here in Farragut.

This year, like many others,SJN’s parishioners are givingclothing and toys to St. JudeCatholic Church in Helenwood,who then distributes the items tofamilies in that community. For

the last couple of weeks, SJN hasbeen collecting the clothing foradults and children. They recentlyturned in those donations andhave already received more.

“They’ve been generous in doingthat,” Phyllis Denning, SJN parishsecretary, said about her parish.

“People at Saint John Neumannare very generous in giving cloth-ing and toys to children andadults,” Sister Patricia Soete withSaint Jude Church said. She esti-

mated the church has 64 familieswith close to 200 children whohave asked for help this year.These are families in the commu-nity and are not members of thechurch. She noted there were onlytwo children in her own parishwith needs.

“There are a lot of people herewho are out of work,” Soete said.“They come from all differentdenominations.

“We are trying to help people in

Scott County,” she said, addingthat is her church’s ministry.

“We get so many calls for help,”Soete said. “They always call here.”

Last year, the church had 93families — 250 children — whocalled needing assistance, shesaid.

In addition to SJN, St. JudeChurch has received donationsfrom other organizations as well.

“We’ve been very blessed,” thesister said.

Still, she said St. Jude would notbe able to help the families in needif it were not for Saint JohnNeumann’s generosity.

“We are a small parish,” shenoted. “We don’t have a lot of fundsfor this.”

She noted the church has 17members with a few others whocome and attend during the year.

“We’re all doing God’s work, and

As Tennessee high schools’ROTC Distinguished Unit, repre-senting the Volunteer State during2013 Pearl Harbor MemorialParade Dec. 7, a few dozenBearden NJROTC cadets benefit-ed from a moving experience inHawaii.

“It was nothing like I’d thoughtit would be … everything therewas twice as good as I thought itwould be,” senior Joseph Felix,Bearden NJROTC commandingofficer said. “On the [U.S.S.]Arizona Memorial, where we putthe flowers out for the names ofthe [deceased] veterans, that wasjust an honor.”

“I don’t think it had quite theimpact until they went to theArizona Memorial … and justvisually stood on the ground andrealized how many people losttheir lives that day,” retired U.S.Marines Maj. Belinda Twohig, BHSNJROTC senior Naval Scienceinstructor said. “This is an experi-ence they’ll remember for the restof their lives.

“We actually took a wreath outto the U.S.S. Arizona fromBearden High School,” Twohigadded.

NJROTC seaman RandallBishop, a freshman, said about theArizona, “When you actually stepup there on the ship, it’s a wholedifferent story. Like on the top ofit looking down, that was reallymoving to everybody.”

I’m a reformed slob. I madethe decision to get organizedway back on June 16, 1977. I was35. I learned a lot through thattransformation. The most impor-tant of which was to understandthat before I did one thing toorganize my chaotic life, I wasall right just the way I was. Thatbacked-upl a u n d r yd i d n ’ tmake me abad person.T h o s eu n m a d ebeds and asink full ofdirty dishesd i d n ’ tmean I did-n’t love myfamily ormy home.Having tor e - i n o c u -late thechildren because I couldn’t findtheir medical records when wemoved to a new town didn’tmean I was a bad mother.

My challenge to change myways came from a deep desire tohave more fun; to be able to playguilt-free and to feel the free-dom of taking care of the rou-tine and mundane tasks thatmake a household run smoothly,so my family and I could reallyenjoy this delicious thing calledlife. My motive to get organizedwas to have more free time toplay.

I think being organized or dis-organized is ultimately a choicebut I also think we each have anatural proclivity to be either.My mom was born organized. Mydad was the donor of my disor-ganized DNA. I had three chil-dren and two received my pen-chant for messiness and one waswashing her toys when she was18 months old. Once I asked her

Farragut High School freshman Kristyn Farley joins her parents,Jim and Renata Farley, at Farragut Primary School’s Hat Day,during which the FPS students brought in a dollar to wear a hatand help raise money for Kristyn.


Farragut Primary School stu-dents reached out to help formerstudent, Kristyn Farley, by wear-ing hats.

Each student brought in $1 sothey could wear a hat and raisemoney for Kristyn, fighting can-cer, to help with medical bills andhelp grant a wish – a trip toCalifornia or New York City.

Now a Farragut High School

freshman, the teen was diag-nosed with Ewing sarcoma, a raretype of bone cancer, during thesummer of 2012.

“It was really hard and long thelast year with chemo,” Kristyn,the daughter of Renata and JimFarley of Farragut, said. “I start-ed [treatments] Aug. 6.”

The teen recalled she was ableto get off therapy and went intoremission in May 2013, but five

if she wanted a dollhouse forChristmas and she replied, “OhMom, it’d be just be one morething to keep clean.”

You know where you fall on thescale of order: one is a MarthaStewart with a staff and ten isthe person who can’t dust or vac-uum because her surfaces arecovered in clutter.

I discovered a little organiza-tion goes a long way. My momused a Girl Scout calendar thatshe looked at every day, a watchthat she looked at every hourand a clean 8x11 inch sheet ofpaper for her daily “to do” list.Everything ran smoothly and Iremember her saying, “If we getour chores done by 10:00 we cango play.” And play we did. Mommade being organized look soeasy; which it was because shenever let anything pile up. Shehad a natural ethic that she did-n’t get to have fun until her workwas done. She let the “carrot” offun hang over all of us.

As a young wife and mother Igot overwhelmed and buried asthe responsibilities of mother-hood and a bad marriage sappedmy energy. My husband (wedivorced when I got organized)and I fought every day over themess. I felt like a loser, a failureand an embarrassment to myfamily until it struck me thatfeeling like a failure was not thetruth about me, and that until Iturned that thought around I

was stuck. I knew better, but inthe chaos I had just forgotten.That was my turning point.

Don’t allow anyone to causeyou to doubt your ability to suc-ceed. If you’ve made a decisionto get organized keep it a secretso you don’t get negative feed-back you don’t need.

Get to know your inner childfor she is that part of you thatneeds your love and attention.She’s the part of you that wantsto play and if you can set a rulethat you don’t get to play untilyour work is done, you can getthe cooperation of your innerchild, and you’ll find that you’llmake progress at being organ-ized

When we strive to have funkeeping our homes clean andcozy, we help our kids to grow upto have clean, cozy peacefulhomes. But it all starts with youknowing you’re okay just the wayyou are.

As The Rotary Club of Turkey Creek’s guest speaker Tuesdayevening, Dec. 17, Linda Cox-Collier, left, takes time to sharesome personal smart phone photos with Rotarians Lois and EdEngel prior to her address.

Cox-Collier touts ETCHbefore Sunset Rotary


If Farragut parents have a childneeding hospital care as a first-time experience for that family,Linda Cox-Collier wants to reas-sure parents about the qualitycare at East Tennessee Children’sHospital.

“It’s an amazing facility withwonderful doctors and the staff isjust incredible,” said Cox-Collier,ETCH director of community ben-efits, who was featured speakerduring The Rotary Club of TurkeyCreek Sunset’s weekly meetingTuesday evening, Dec. 17, in FaithLutheran Church.

“We are a not-for-profit hospital,and with that have responsibili-ties back to our community,” Cox-Collier said, adding ETCH per-forms “a community health needsassessment every few years. Weask the community … ‘what doesour community need?’ Out of thatneeds assessment we develop pro-grams and opportunities to makeimprovements.”

That includes “nutrition and fit-ness” and “Safe Kids Program,injury prevention,” Cox-Collieradded. “… Fire safety, water safe-ty, car seat checkpoints.”

Safe Sleep Program “is simple,”Cox-Collier said about teachingparents the importance of havingtheir babies sleep on their backs,not stomachs. “It’s ABC: alone, ontheir back and in a crib.”

“Since this sleep initiative has

been put in place, the incidents of[sudden infant death syndrome]has decreased in Tennessee by 50percent. That’s incredible.”

Concerning automated externaldefibulators, “The program wehave in place is such that if there’sa school that does not have anAED, then we will either helpmatch a fund or we’ll find fundingdepending on whether they’re aTitle I school or not,” Cox-Colliersaid.

Supporting “Backpack Prog-ram, we work with Second Harvest[Food Bank] … helping childrento have food on the weekends,”Cox-Collier said. “Many childrenin East Tennessee and around thecountry, when they go home onFriday they may not eat againuntil they go to school onMonday.”

Since it opened in 1937, whenaccording to Collier the hospitalwas known as “CrippledChildren’s Hospital,” ETCH now“is the 19th largest employer inEast Tennessee,” she added. “Onething that’s obvious is that it’s lim-ited in space.”

As a result, “the board approvedan expansion right across thestreet,” Collier added.

Expansion will especially assistexpansion of its “neonatal inten-sive care unit,” Collier said.

At ETCH since June 2013, “Ihaven’t run into one person yetwho wasn’t so inviting and helpingme to understand things,” Colliersaid.

Thathas lived on with all the grandkids.

“I enjoy giving back a lot, beinginvolved in all the different chari-ties and volunteering like that,”she added. “Not only do I like help-ing others, but I kind of like feelinglike I’m needed and feeling like Ido help others. I enjoy it a lot.”

With a passion for journalism asa career, “I love the idea of kind ofgetting out the good stories out

As for Christopoulos, 17, “I wasnominated because of the work Ihave done in the community instarting the non-profit organiza-tion Project Beansprout,” she said.“It was a nice ceremony overall;one because of the recognition allof the teens were given for theirhard work and what they’ve givenback to the community.

“Personally it was rewardingbecause after the ceremony, a fewof the people in the audience — afew City of Knoxville employees —came up to me saying, ‘We knowabout the problem, NeonatalAbstinence Syndrome, whichProject Beansprout deals with,”Christopoulos added.

Farragut Primary School second-graders work with their homeroom teacher, Melinda Webster,while conducting a chemistry experiment. Around Webster, from left, are Brianna Booth, KeiraWalker and Todd Chen. Among Webster’s other students also working is Ethan Smith, backgroundfar left.


For their creative approachestoward teaching students, andfor writing a convincing essaydescribing need, two Farragutschools teachers have earnedJunior League of Knoxville $500mini-grants.

“That was pretty exciting,” JaneSkinner, science teacher atFarragut High School and co-sponsor of schools’ robotics teamsaid. She joins other local recipi-ent Melinda Webster, second-grade teacher at Farragut PrimarySchool.

Skinner’s grant essay detailed aneed for LabQuest 2 Interfacebased on “struggles I saw theteachers were having.”

LabQuest 2 “is an interface forscience probes” that will speed upuse of probes. “It covers all threeareas of science: biological, chem-ical and physical. Some of theprobes that we use are like gaspressure probes,” Skinner added.

“The unique thing aboutLaQquest 2 is that it’s a littlestandalone like an iPhone orsomething like that. They inter-face with the probes, you can justplug them in. Whereas in the pastthe interface we’ve had requiredthat we use a laptop. And our lap-tops are pretty sluggish and slow.It really slows down the process.

Despite “thousands of dollarsinvested in probeware, the teach-ers are hesitant to use it because

it doesn’t always work because ofthe computer glitches,” Skinnersaid. “This will bypass the comput-er glitches.

“This makes it a lot simpler andeasier for the teachers to use theprobeware with their students tocollect the data and for them to dothe analysis all in a [faster] periodof time,” Skinner added.

The $500 mini-grant will gotoward the purchase of eightLabQuest 2 Interface devices,each costing $285 according toSkinner. “We’ll make up the differ-ence with other grants that we’vewritten for these interfaces aswell,” she added.

Webster said about her mini-grant, “I am able to purchase ahigh-quality document camera forour class to use. … It is a smallportable camera that connects toyour computer or projector. Wecan place student work, bookpages or 3D objects under thecamera and project it to theActiveboard.”

This camera is a vital part ofWebster’s class project “to rese-arch the culture, traditions, histo-ry, landmarks and geography ofour great state. They will collabo-ratively write a travel guide book”titled, ‘Tennessee from A to Z,’”she said.

“Using the document camera,students will be able to sharetheir ABC student-made bookpages as well as resource pagesfrom books they read to practicespeaking skills,” Webster added.

engineer who started FMS FIRSTLEGO team “out of my home,” hasbeen involved in mentoring teammembers “five or six years now.”

With FMS team working out ofNational Transportation ResearchCenter 2 off Hardin Valley Road,“We had a lot of engineers andtechnical people involved that areparents, and they were puttingforth a lot of help and a lot ofinformation,” Waldrupe said.

Held “in one of the old gyms atTennessee Tech,” the LEGOrobots “actually compete. Theyhave two-and-a-half minutes to doa certain number of assignments,”Waldrupe in his third year at FMS,said. “The team has to get togeth-

er in front of a group of judges andtalk about the programming, ano-ther group of judges to talk aboutthe actual robot design, the prob-lems that they had and how theydetermined what to do.”

The programming involves“telling the motor to turn so manytimes for so long, and how muchpower’s necessary,” Waldrupesaid. “And it has to go get an itemon the table and take it to anotherspot on the table.”

Under the theme of “NaturalDisasters,” the roughly 6-inch-tall,10-inch long, 8-inch wide robot,“has to go to a certain spot on thetable and perform a function,”Waldrupe added. “One of the func-tions was knock a limb off a tree.Another one was actually to pickup [tiny toy] pets. … and take

them some place. [FMS team]would have to program using therobot’s language to do that.”

Though parents and teachersguided the students’ efforts inpreparation for such competi-tions, “The kids did a fair amounton their own in this problem solv-ing,” Waldrupe said. The students“did almost all the [robot] build-ing.”

FMS Android earned its way toCookeville, based on total pointsearned, during a regional LEGOLeague championship at HardinValley Academy Nov. 16. “We wonthe Gracious Professionalismaward,” Waldrupe said.

Teams were formed and prepa-ration started “back in August andSeptember,” Waldrupe said.

Many people in need are ableto stay warm this winter afterreceiving a coat from Coats forthe Cold, a partnership withKnox Area Rescue Ministries andPrestige Cleaners.

Thousands of coats were givenaway to the public the morning ofSaturday, Dec. 7, at KARM’s siteoff Hollow Fame Drive, Knoxville.

“We are in our 16th year,”Jackie Turner, director ofPlant Operations with PrestigeCleaners, said. “We are communi-ty-minded, always looking for aneed in the community, and wepartnered with KARM.

“They have a need for cleancoats, and that’s a need we canfulfill,” she added. “The greatestneed is for children’s coats andlarge sizes – extra large, extraextra large and three extralarge.”

Turner said there were 9,675coats collected this year.

“It’s more than we collectedsince 2008, which is slightly morethan that,” she said.

All of Prestige Cleaners’ 11stores participate in Coats forthe Cold. Among them was itsFarragut store along 11428Kingston Pike.

“It’s a great thing to do,”Johnnie Rodgers, team leader atPrestige Cleaners in Farragut,said. “Some people really appre-ciate getting these coats.

“We do this every year,”Rodgers said. “We get tons ofcoats in here. We get a lot of feed-back from the public. A lot ofthem are very nice coats, too.”

“Sometimes we get new onesin,” Carol Harris, customer serv-ice representative at Farragut’sPrestige Cleaners, said.

Harris said people also have

brought in scarves, gloves andother items.

“Whatever people donate tokeep warm,” Rodgers said.

To donate to Coats for the Cold,people could bring them in to oneof Prestige Cleaners’ stores.

“We take them [coats] in here;we check the pockets; we lookthe coats over to see if they needcleaning and we clean them,” shesaid.

The business accepts coatsbetween the first of Novemberand the end of November andthen they go to anyone in need,Rodgers said.

The business has been doingCoats for the Cold for at least 15years or more, according toRodgers and Harris.

In addition to Coats forthe Cold, Prestige Cleaners isinvolved in other charitableactivities.

“Eddie [Mannis, Prestigeowner] likes to help with a lot ofcommunity outreach projects,”Rodgers said.

Among their charitable activi-ties are Project Wear and Share,with which people can donateclothing that goes to Goodwillstores, Turner said.

That clothing can be used forsomeone to go on a job interview,Rodgers said. She noted ProjectWear and Share will come up inFebruary 2014.

Prestige Cleaners has alsobeen involved in helping RonaldMcDonald House and takes partin Hope for Haiti, which startsthe first of the year.

“We take gently used formals.People can bring them to one ofour 11 locations,” Turner said.Those formals are cleaned, soldand the proceeds go to medicate,educate and clothe children inHaiti.

“You can smell the oil that actual-ly still seeps from the ship on adaily basis. Over 70 years and it’sstill leaking.”

Felix, who was allowed to steerthe ferry taking the unit to theArizona Memorial, recalled aWorld War II veteran on the U.S.S.Raleigh at Pearl Harbor “that wason a plane with us.”

Robertson said he struck up aconversation with this veteran.“He said he was asleep when [theJapanese attacked]. … One of the

terms he used was ‘dumbfounded.’And then he said, ‘my adrenalinekicked in and it was war.’ … Hejumped overboard and he wasactually helping rescue survivorsin the water.

“Of three different [PearlHarbor veterans] that I talked to,all pretty much had the samething to say: they didn’t know whatwas going on. … Until they actual-ly, physically saw the carnage.”

Felix said, “their performancewent well despite a lot of freshmenand a lot of lesser experiencedpeople on the trip.”

without Saint John Neumann andGod’s spirit, we wouldn’t be able todo this at all because most of thethings given are from Saint JohnNeumann,” Soete said.

“It’s beyond saying thanks,” sheadded. “There’s no other way toexpress how grateful we are.They’re awesome.”

She recounted one story of aman who came to her door theweek of Dec. 9. He was a singleparent with five children who justlost his job and expressed his grat-itude for the assistance.

“He was so overwhelmed,” shesaid.

That man was only one individ-ual who has sought help from thechurch.

“People call,” Soete said. “Theyask, ‘Do you have pants or clothing?We put them on the Angel Tree.”

To help the families with themost need, she explained thechurch has an Angel Tree pro-gram, which includes names ofthose families in a crisis. The fam-ily may have someone out of workor sick.

“We’re trying to make ourselvesaware of who are the most needy,”Soete said. “We use the angel tree,

and what we don’t get [in dona-tions], we buy.

“We had some people from ourchurch who donated money,” shenoted.

Soete or a church member willwalk around the donated itemswith the family member, usuallythe mother, and help that personchoose what the family needs.

And, the church has a mercyfund for helping people in themost need, said Soete, whobelongs to Sisters of Mercy. Theorganization is made up ofCatholic women of faith who com-mit their lives to God and servingthose in need.

can be through Project Bean-sprout. That was really rewarding.”

Moreover, “We’ve been staying incontact so I can meet with themfurther so I can talk with themabout what some next steps canbe. So they can bring me to thenext level of policy change.”

As forWolfe, “Carahas demon-strated herl e a d e r s h i pand commit-ment to com-munity serv-ice throughmany groups,and volun-

teer organizations,” John Meade,representing Optimist Club ofKnoxville, said during the ceremo-ny. “She gives her time toVolunteer Ministry Center, Oper-ation Backyard, Empty StockingFund, Fantasy of Trees, and Tom’sFoundation at Crescent Bend onDerby Day.”

months later, the cancerreturned.

“It spread in the bones but notthe organs,” she said.

This year, Farley said her che-motherapy treatments are not ashard.

“I haven’t had to stay in thehospital for anything anymore,”she said. “I’m just grateful for allthe help and support people havebeen giving. It’s been crazy [theamount of support].”

Watching the children comethrough the school’s doors withtheir hats, she said, “I think it’sreally sweet and cute. All the kids

are really adorable.”“I think it’s awesome,” Kris-

tyn’s twin sister, Katelyn, said.“It’s just amazing all these kidsare wearing hats and raisingmoney.”

During her visit, Kristyn visitedher former second-grade tea-cher, Teresa Longworth, andLongworth’s class.

“I feel really good [about hav-ing Hat Day] because she’s reallysick,” second-grader Bella Hillsaid about Kristyn. “I really wanther to get better.”

“It’s just amazing,” Longworthsaid about the students’ responseto Hat Day. “Kristyn is such asweet child.” “She’s always bringsa smile to the classroom. She was

always a good help [when she wasa second-grader].”

The idea for the Hat Day camefrom Natalie Keeney, a cheermom at FHS, whose daughter is afreshman cheerleader and friendof Kristyn.

“We just wanted to bringawareness to pediatric cancerand to help raise money to grantone of Kristyn’s wishes,” Keeneysaid. “She would love to go toCalifornia to see family and shewould love to see New York City.

“If we could just raise a littlebit of money to grant a wish ortwo of her’s, that would be fabu-lous,” Keeney said. “

Chelsea DeLay, center in back, joins residents of a village near Dakar, Senegal, while doing herfield studies in Africa.


“Every day, there’s a new chal-lenge presented,” Farragut nativeChelsea DeLay, 24, said about herfield studies in Dakar, Senegal, inAfrica.

Dakar is a city on the Cape Vertpeninsula with a population ofabout 2.5 million.

“I am doing my master’s rese-arch in soil science, specificallysoil microbiology,” she said. “Weare looking at an agriculture sys-tem over there, instead of usingconventional agriculture.

“We are researching a more sta-ble method using these nativeshrubs that are found all over thecountryside,” DeLay added.“When they are planted next tocrops, specifically millet, theyreally help the crop productivityand yields.

“So, we are just taking soil,plant and root samples and doingstudies to see why that happens,”she said.

DeLay noted the research is abig National Science Foundationproject, on which several schoolsare participating: The Ohio StateUniversity, a couple other schoolsin Ohio and University ofCalifornia, Merced. She noted shehas an opportunity to work withFrench and Senegalese rese-archers as well.

“It’s fun; it’s interesting, thecommunications,” Delay said andlaughed. “I really like it overthere. I’ve got a good group offriends.”

DeLay, the daughter of Nita andMichael Smothers of Farragut,attends OSU, where she is seekingher master’s degree and receiveda full scholarship. She is a 2007Farragut High School graduate,and she earned her bachelor’sdegree with honors from TheUniversity of Tennessee,Chattanooga. She has a brother,Nathan DeLay, 29, and two sisters,

Lindsay DeLay, 31, and BrookieSmothers, 15.

Her mother said she was happyfor her daughter.

“When she said Africa, Ithought, ‘Oh, please, don’t let it bea village,’ but she’s in a nice city inone of the nicer parts on the con-tinent,” Nita Smothers said.

“I’m so proud of her,” Smothersadded. “Not only did she graduateat the top of her class at UT, shewas in a sorority, Phi DeltaGamma, for two years, she has aboyfriend, she works part-timeand she still keeps her studies up.She just used her time wisely.”

DeLay recently returned fromSenegal for a break.

“It’s really nice to be back,” shenoted.

“I’m glad she’s home,”Smothers said.

DeLay left for Africa May 31,and spent six-and-a-half monthsthere. She will return to AfricaJan. 8, and stay in Senegal untilJune 26.

While she is just trying to gether master’s degree right now,DeLay said the research work wasoriginally meant for a PhD stu-dent.

“I took over this girl’s project.She went over there and actuallyhated it,” she said. “So, there’senough research to get a PhD, butI’m still deciding. It’s not just theresearch, it’s a lot more to it.”

Delay said she would like to stayin agriculture field and thinksshe would like to work for theU.S. government, possibly U.S.Department of Agriculture orEnvironmental Protection Agency.

This is not DeLay’s first timeabroad. She studied in Australiaher junior her at UT and she hadbeen to Guatemala.

DeLay said the trip to Africataught her to roll with the punch-es and to adjust. She also learnedsome French and Wolof, a tradi-tional language, and to collabo-rate with scientists.

sportsLady Admirals sweep Bearden■ ALAN SLOAN

[email protected]

To determine just how effectivethe Farragut Lady Admirals’defense was against rival Beardenlast Friday at BHS, listen to LadyBulldogs’ starting forwardChanler Geer.

“I give Farragut’s defense a lot ofcredit, they were a lot more scrap-py this time than the first time weplayed them,” Geer, who scored 12points before fouling out late in thefourth quarter, said aboutFarragut’s 55-51 victory Jan. 31.The comparison was with a 42-41Farragut home win Dec. 10.

Building a 10-point secondperiod lead and ending with bal-a n c e ds c o r i n gwhile get-ting biglifts off the bench, FHS improvedto 22-2 overall.

The Lady Admirals entered theweek tied with Maryville for theDistrict 4-AAA lead, each 11-1,with games remaining lastMonday and Tuesday, Feb. 3-4(after deadline).

Farragut’s defense held Bearden(19-5, 8-4 after the game) without afield goal for more than eight min-utes at one stretch.

“We learned this summer we’vegot to play more physical and

more tough,” FHS head coachJason Mayfield said. “We play sowell [using] good help defense.Our post players rotate so well,and that helps so much.”

“Definitely our defense. Wecame out and knew who we had toguard,” FHS senior post MadysonNewby said after scoring six points.“And we boxed out well.”

While Bearden senior wing ErinWalsh led all scorers with 21 points,Madison Maples, FHS senior wing,led her team with 13. RebeccaJameson scored 12 for Farragutfollowed by Maegan Hudson, soph-omore guard, with 11.

Mayfield said Hudson “was huge”with a pair of second quarter three-point baskets, adding his bench“came uphuge …K r i s t e nFreemanplayed well coming in [six points].”

As for his starters, “Becca was awarrior the whole time,” Mayfieldsaid about his senior post.

Meanwhile, Bearden’s boyspulled away from a 22-19 halftimelead to build a 45-28 edge afterthree periods before winning eas-ily 64-52.

.Hardin Valley Academy’s basket-

ball teams were victorious onSenior Night. The Lady Hawksnotched a 75-59 win over West HighSchool. HVA’s boys downed theRebels 67-43 Friday night, Jan. 31.

It was the first times the squadshad beenon thefloor sinces n o wblanketed Knox County Tuesday,Jan. 28.

The Lady Hawks nabbed aDistrict 4-AAA victory but it didn’tcome easily. The Lady Rebels (1-20 overall, 0-12 in the district)darted to a fast start and closedthe first quarter with an 8-0 run toopen a 16-8 advantage.

Hardin Valley (11-11, 5-7) con-tinued to struggle early in the sec-ond stanza and found itself behind25-12 midway through the framewhen the Lady Rebels’ BriannaTate hit a pair of free throws with4 minutes, 40 seconds remainingin the first half.

The Lady Hawks would eventu-ally answer a late wake-up call.head coach Jennifer Gallowayemployed a full-court pressuredefense that forced the LadyRebels into several turnovers thatHVA was able to convert into tran-sition baskets.

That coupled with an offensivespark from freshman forwardBeka Hampton enabled the hometeam to claw its way back into thegame. Hampton scored all eight ofher points in the second frameand the Lady Hawks pulled towithin 33-28 by halftime.

“I think our kids played hardbut we haven’t practiced sincewe’ve had the snow,” Gallowaysaid. “Our kids played hard but itjust took us awhile to find ourgroove.”

Better late than never.The Lady Hawks opened the

second half with a vengeance.Hardin Valley stormed out andpromptly opened the third quarterwith a flourish. The Lady Hawksused an 8-2 surge early in theframe to seize control of the con-test. HVA finally went ahead forgood when Lacy Cantrell’s three-point play gave it a 36-35 lead with5:25 left in the period. By the endof the frame, the Lady Hawks hadtaken a 52-44 lead.

They then scored the first 10points of the fourth quarter andKatie Smartt, the Lady Hawks’senior guard, went on a tear. Shescored 10 of her 18 points over thefinal eight minutes and helped theLady Hawks pull away.

“This was a big confidencebooster for us,” Smartt said. “We’llprobably see them again in thedistrict tournament.

“When we play as a team, wecan play with anybody in our dis-trict.”

Brooklyn Battle also scored 18points while Cantrell and BrieCarter scored 14 each.

The HVA boys were able toavenge one of their early districtlosses. Like the girls, the Hawksdidn’t practice due to inclementw e a t h e rand headc o a c hK e i t hGalloway said that was evidentearly.

“I was really proud of our guysfor their effort after we didn’t playparticularly well in the first half,”Galloway said. “In the third quar-

ter, we went on a run.”The Hawks (15-7, 9-3) might

have struggled but they didenough to open a modest 28-23lead by halftime.

After the break, the Hawks blewthings open with a 27-12 run inthe third quarter and that all butput the Rebels (5-17, 3-9) away.

Senior forward Zak Carterscored 13 of his game-high 20points in the second half and wasone of three Hawks to post doublefigures in the scoring column.Blaine Shockley added 15 pointsand senior Dyonte Bizzle-Brownfinished with 10 for Hardin Valley.

“It was Senior Night and we need-ed this win,” Shockley, a junior wingplayer, said. “It was important.

“But what was more important,was the chance to play with theseseniors at home one more time.”

Carter, who buried a 3-pointshot as time expired in the thirdquarter to give the Hawks a 55-35lead, said Hardin Valley couldn’thave written a better script forSenior Night.

“We haven’t practiced but wegot together as a team with nocoaches (Thursday, Jan. 30) andwe talked about how we let oneget away from us at their place,”he said. “We wanted to come outand prove that they weren’t goingto beat us at our place and youcouldn’t have scripted this anybetter.”

Shooting 6-of-8 from the fieldand 12-of-14 from the line, Grahamhas transformed from “the fourthleading scorer” last year at BHS tothe main man this season.

“It is a bit of a new role … last

year I was more of a spot-up shoot-er,” he added. “This year I’ve reallyhad to work on being able to get tothe hole a little bit better.”

Chris Cool, FHS head coach,said his offense “was chaos allnight long,” pointing out that hisguards failed to “settle down and

run our stuff.”About his most valuable post

player and leading scorer Friday,“I don’t think Billy Williamstouched the ball three times inthe first half. … It was just crazi-ness,” Cool added about Williams,who scored 15.

Snowy, dreary days leaving you in the dark....

Then it's time to shed some light!!!I'm a big fan of lights - task,

ambient, decorative or accent.The correct lighting in a homeadds so much more than illumina-tion. It creates a mood and canadd interest to a room. Here are afew of my favorite "light tricks" --

• A strand of white lights hid-den on the top of kitchen cabinetsgive interest on a shoe stringbudget (can be plugged intomicrowave outlet)

• Shining uplights on archi-tectural details not only show-case it, but the shadows createdbecome just as interesting aswhat you are high lighting.

• Battery operated candlesgive a flickering warmth any-where! I love these outside onporches, on tops of cabinets in the

kitchen and bedwooms• Try a light shining "up the

art" instead of the traditionaldown light - neat effect on the artsubject!

• Decorative lights pluggedinto outlets not only hideunsightly plugs, but give anotherlevel of ambiance to your home.

Have fun with the lighting inyour home...think beyond chande-liers and lamps!!
