By Betty Bean The row of Leyland Cypress trees behind the homes on Cresthill Drive was planted by the develop- ers of the Summit Medical Group at Deane Hill to screen the neighbor- hood from the clinic parking lot. As they grew, the trees delivered the additional bonus of muffling the sound of Kingston Pike traffic, a short block away. But last Saturday, the Summit evergreens were scheduled to be cut down and reduced to woodchips because they were more than 15 feet tall and stood within 75 feet of a TVA transmission line, as per the utility’s new trans- mission line ease- ment maintenance policy. TVA power lines are strung 60 feet off the ground. “This is a good example of what’s going to happen all over town,” said tree advocate Larry Silverstein, who planned to protest TVA’s tree-cutting policy at today’s County Commission meeting. Com- missioner R. Larry Smith requested that TVA send a representative to explain why it is cutting down veg- etation that will never grow tall enough to endanger the power lines. TVA representatives have told property owners that trees standing more than 15 feet high must be re- moved because the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) requires it, on peril of $1 million a day fines. “TVA has lied consistently about government regulations,” Silver- stein said. “Is there a federal rule that requires a utility to cut down all the trees? No. TVA has just not been honest about this from the get- go, and to me that’s a big thing. They claim they have to do it. The FERC document says no such thing. This is just blatantly false to imply that they must cut them down. Fines up to a million dollars a day? I don’t think TVA has ever been fined once. “No taller than 15 feet within the easement is just not reason- able,” said Silverstein, who com- piled packets of documentation for commission members. “These are 60-foot power lines. And that FERC stuff? Completely misleading. The public has no idea of the amount of destruction to private property and harm to the environment this policy will cause in the near future. “If people want to change this policy, they’re going to have to get involved. I cannot do it by myself.” TVA spokesperson Travis Brick- ey cited a multistate power blackout in 2003 as the reason for the more stringent regulations and said Sil- verstein’s major complaint is with the way the media have reported this story. “We have been very consistent.

A TVA trans- mission line borders his backyard, and in 2009, the utility notified him that it planned to remove four of his trees. After considerable wrangling, he entered into an agreement – TVA promised not to cut down the trees if he would have a large sweet gum trimmed. It cost him more than $800, but he thought that meant his trees were safe. A few weeks ago, he heard from TVA again. The trees had to come down. Crews, accompanied by members of TVA’s internal police force, showed up on his property to start cutting. “They had said if I trimmed the tree they wouldn’t cut it ‘this year,’ ” Szluha said. “But in three years, it barely grew at all. It was an old, full- grown tree. Tell me how that was a hazard.” The subcontractors also clear- cut a wooded area behind his prop- erty, hacking down everything, in- cluding low-growing sumac, and in the process disturbing swarms of termites and flying ants, which then infested his home. “My backyard was like a war zone,” he said.

The veterans will stay, but the younger ones, who knows?” Commissioners present were Mike Hammond, Amy Broyles, Brad Anders and Jeff Ownby. “I don’t see the money reach- ing the kids,” Ownby said in re- sponse to Superintendent Dr. Jim McIntyre’s ambitious budget pro- posal. Reynolds was quick to respond. “We need technology. (Farra- gut High) could go wireless for $36,000.” He said he’s “kicked off” the system he has about six times a day. He also urged support for the feeder schools, saying you can have great feeders without a great high school, but “you cannot have a great high school without great feeders.” Farragut area principals (at left) Ju- lia Craze, Farragut Primary; Michael Reynolds, Farragut High; Sallee Reynolds, Hardin Valley Academy; (above) Kay Wellons, Farragut Inter- mediate and Craze.

with Gene WesselFinding Gene Wessel at lunch time on Wednesdays
is easy. When the Rotary Club of Farragut meets each Wednesday, Gene is there. In 38 years as a member of Ro-tary club, Gene has perfect attendance, whether in Chica-go, Lenoir City or his current home with Farragut.
“I joined Rotary in Chicago in 1974,” says Gene. “I owned my own company in commercial printing and felt it was good for small business owners to be involved in the com-munity. Rotary was a great way to do that.”
He moved to the Knoxville area in 1995 to “semi-retire.” “I have always liked this part of the country, so when time came to leave Chicago, we moved to Tellico Village. I love golf and tennis, so this was a good place to come.”
After a few years, “retirement” took a turn, with Gene going to work part-time with Kohl’s when they came to East Tennessee and then later buying Homespun Craft and Antique Mall. “I owned Homespun for about eight years, from 2001 to 2009 when I sold it to one of my vendors. Now I am really, offi cially, retired.”
Gene is called “Father Rotary” by his fellow Rotarians in the Farragut club. “I am living in the Halls area now, but I keep my membership in the Farragut club because I really like the group. They are hard workers, support a lot of good causes and are a lot of fun.”
Two hip replacements forced him to give up the tennis, says Gene, who will be 70 in November, but he still loves playing golf. Also keeping him busy is his love of wood-working. Family includes a daughter in Chicago and a daughter in Santa Fe and three grandchildren.
His own penchant for collecting and antique shopping has slowed down, but anything with Coca-Cola on it will still get a second look. And Gene still has a love for classic cars.
“I used to have four but have sold all but one,” he says. The one that remains, however, is a beauty: a 1974 gold Ca-dillac convertible in perfect condition.
“It’s a classic,” says Gene. “Right down to the 500 cubic-inch engine and the seven miles to a gallon.”
Sit and have a Coffee Break as you get to know Gene Wessel:
What is your favorite quote from a television show or movie?“It is not really from a show or movie, but my favorite
quote is ‘I’m not bald. I’m just growing faster than my hair.’”
Coffee Break
It can be your neighbor, club leader, bridge partner, boss, father, teacher – anyone you think would be interesting to Farragut Shopper-News readers. Email suggestions to Sherri Gardner Howell, [email protected]. Include contact info if you can.
What are you guilty of?“I have always been guilty of being a neat freak!”
What is your favorite material possession?“A Rotary ring made of four kinds of Black Hills gold.”
What are you reading currently?“I am reading travel brochures and maps for a long
extended trip across this beautiful country.”
What was your most embarrassing moment?“When I was in high school, I turned over a tractor
while hauling sweet corn to the factory late at night.”
What are the top three things on your bucket list? “Travel across this country; spend more time with my
grandchildren; reach 50 years in Rotary Club; and play more golf.”
What is one word others often use to describe you?“There are two: energetic and outgoing.”
If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?“I would like to have more patience and be more
understanding of others.”
What is your passion? “Serving the Lord and helping mankind.”
With whom, living or dead, would you most like to have a long lunch?
“I would like to have lunch with basket-ball coaches Branch McCracken and Bobby Knight.”
Other than your parents, who has had the big-gest infl uence on your life and why?
“My high school principal, who taught me self-discipline and gave me the confi dence to succeed no matter what life has to offer.”
I still can’t quite get the hang of… “Swimming.”
What is the best present you ever received in a box?“My Confi rmation Bible.”
What is the best advice your mother ever gave you?
“Trust in the Lord and never lose faith. God will always be with you.”
What is your social media of choice? “I email and have a cell phone. That’s the
extent of my technology.”
What is the worst job you have ever had?“I never really had a bad job. I owned my
own businesses for most of my life. I even en-joyed life in the U.S. Army.”
What was your favorite Saturday morning car-toon and why?
“It wasn’t a cartoon, but I loved ‘Superman,’ the champion of ‘Truth, Justice and The Ameri-can Way!’”
What irritates you?“People who have forgotten the rules of the road and
how to be respectful drivers.”
What’s one place in Farragut everyone should visit?“There are two: Fresh Market and Homespun Craft and
Antique Mall.”
If you could go back in time, what advice would you give yourself at 18?
“I would tell myself to appreciate more deeply the value of family and friends.”
What is your greatest fear? “Not being around to watch my grandchildren grow up
to be adults.”
If you could do one impulsive thing, what would it be? “I would drive an Indy race car around the Indianapolis
Motor Speedway.”

not to love about a concert showcasing the talents of young children. Mix in a charity for disadvantaged youth and a Steinway piano and, well, it’s just a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
The American Piano Gal-lery in Turkey Creek and the Steinway Society played host to The Joy of Music School Student Recital on March 18 in the store’s recital hall. Ten young people performed for a full house of 60-plus, includ-ing parents, teachers, siblings and community guests.
The Joy of Music School is a nonprofi t that provides free music lessons to children who cannot afford classes otherwise. All the teach-ers are volunteers, and the school supplies the instru-

ments, music and supplies.Goals are not only artistic
development, although lis-tening to the performers, it is evident that is a focus. The school endeavors to give sup-port and encouragement, to teach good habits, to provide opportunities to perform and to expose disadvantaged young people to new oppor-tunities for success. Frank Graffeo is the executive di-rector and Julie Carter is di-rector of music education.
Concert guests were treated to a variety of music. Young Annalise Travis, play-ing on a violin one-sixth the size of a regular instrument,
entertained with “Song of the Wind,” accompanied on pia-no by Stan Smith. Emerson Fulton took command of the keyboard with the “Pizzicato Polka,” followed by Lauren LeCren’s piano rendition of “Malaguena.”
Mobin Araghi played “Fugue” on guitar. Closing out the program was a spe-cial treat as Breyon Ewing sang two songs and received hearty congratulations on receiving the Grace Moore Scholarship to the Univer-sity of Tennessee College of Music.
Opening his store for the Sunday concert was Greg Scribner, manager of the American Piano Gallery, which sells Steinway & Sons, Boston and Essex pianos. The event was hosted by the Knoxville Steinway Society and president Thomas Bo-duch was on hand to wel-come guests. Other special guests included Marilyn Dick, whose husband the late James A. Dick, founded the Joy of Music School, and her friends Ann Hitch and Susan Brackney.

Can church ladies move mountains?
I wasn’t in Nashville last week, but I know enough about how things work down there to be able to de-scribe the scenario, and I’d bet my best imitation Louis Vuitton bag that last Mon-day’s Chattanooga Times-Free Press editorial cartoon got emailed out, printed off, passed around and guf-fawed about all over the Legislative Plaza.
But probably not where Rambo, the meanest hom-bre on Capitol Hill, could see them doing it.
To be fair, Ron Ramsey’s probably no different than anybody else when it comes to being made the butt of somebody else’s joke. Nobody’d be tickled to see himself caricatured stand-ing on top of a pile of Ben-jamins like he’d just sum-mited Everest, planting a banner that says “Campaign Cash” with a cartoon bal-loon that says, “There is one mountain I’ll protect.”
Nope, the Speaker of the Senate/Lt. Governor of Ten-nessee could not have been amused.
The cartoon, of course, referenced Scenic Vistas Protection, a bill written by Knoxville lawyer Dawn Coppock, who has spent the last fi ve years lobbying the General Assembly to ban mountaintop removal coal mining from Tennessee.
She has given ground in the process (the bill now ap-plies only to slopes 2,000 feet and above in altitude, for example), but she’s never given up, even after being dubbed the “Church Lady” and watching her bill killed off in obscure subcommit-tees year after year. She is one of the founders of LEAF, an environmental organiza-tion originally composed of
Not dead yet
members of the Church of the Good Shepherd, which is dedicated to a philosophy called Creation Care, the heart of which is that God frowns on stuff like blowing the tops off mountains.
And what the cartoon means is that people across the state are paying attention. The bill that started out as a minor annoyance to Ramsey, who has been the recipient of hundreds of thousands of dollars from the coal indus-try over the years, has grown into a major aggravation.
After LEAF supporters kicked off this year’s session with a highly publicized 40 days of prayer for the moun-tains, culminating with a grand fi nale in a Nashville church in January, Ramsey had had enough, and decid-ed to gut Coppock’s bill.
Nearly a month ago, the Senate’s Republican major-ity came up with a version of the Scenic Vistas bill that purports to ban mountaintop removal, but in reality only bans dumping the rubble for-merly known as mountains into surrounding valleys. Blowing the tops off is OK, as long as the remains are piled back up into mountainesque rock piles. Ramsey issued a press release declaring the mountains saved.
His enthusiasm will be tested April 2, when the de-coy bill is scheduled to go to the Senate fl oor, marking the fi rst time a mountaintop removal ban has gotten to the fl oor of any state legisla-tive body. The sponsor, Eric Stewart, will likely move to restore the original bill, and regardless of what the ma-jority does, the world will be watching.
tant post for those of us who care about greenways.
Donna Young’s salary was $49,000 and the new person will earn somewhat
less than that, I am told. If she does what is hoped, she will earn every penny of it.
The greenway coordina-tor will report to Walsh. Whether this person will have access to the mayor directly or will have to go through Walsh to Branscom to Bill Lyons or Eddie Man-nis and then to the mayor is unclear.
However, given Mayor Rogero’s strong, deeply felt commitment to a green city, the new coordinator ought to have direct access and not have their thoughts fi l-tered through three others before they reach the mayor.
Knoxville should be add-ing at least four miles a year of new greenways to our current system. It will not happen unless the greenway coordinator is seen as hav-ing the mayor’s personal support. I have no reason to doubt Mayor Rogero’s sup-
port of greenways, but the test will come with what is or is not in her budget to be unveiled on April 27.
■ Meanwhile, Lon-sdale Recreation Center, 2705 Stonewall, will get more space with the 5 p.m. Wednesday, March 28, event at which Rogero will help knock down a wall to start a $522,000 addition to the facility. According to Kathleen Gibi, recreation spokesperson, the renova-tion will include new rest-rooms, a new offi ce, new HVAC, computer lab space and a multipurpose room which can be used for var-ied community events.
KCDC is fronting $150,000 of the total cost. All represents good news for Lonsdale.
■ If former Sheriff Tim Hutchinson runs for state representative in the new Knox House district
and wins, it will represent a political comeback as stun-ning as Richard Nixon win-ning the White House in 1968 after losing the Cali-fornia governor’s race in 1962.
Remember, this is the same person who lost in a landslide to County May-or Tim Burchett only two years ago. Hutchinson did not even reach 20 percent of the total vote. If two years later he can win a seat in the Legislature he once again is a player in Knox County politics. If he serves two terms (four years), he will immediately qualify for a state legislative pension on top of the enhanced and controversial county pen-sion he now receives. As a state representative, he will be able to block or support local legislation which re-quires approval of all seven House members.
■ County Commis-sioner Amy Broyles raised eyebrows last week when she mentioned in-creasing the County Com-mission size back to 19 members. Not certain whether she is advocating this or simply throwing it out for discussion.
Broyles is a county char-ter committee member who is very vocal in meetings. Generally she is viewed as opposed to the old way of doing things, so it would be a surprise if she favored re-turning part of county gov-ernment to the old commis-sion with increased cost to taxpayers who would have to pay eight more commis-sioners’ salaries and pen-sions.
The huge 27-member charter committee is oper-ating under the radar screen with little media attention on its work.

Shots fi red in Battle of Midway, part 2By Betty Bean
Second District County Commissioner Amy Broyles voted no on the Midway Busi-ness Park in 2010, in part be-cause of community opposi-tion and in part because she doesn’t support “greenfi eld” development, which she be-lieves leads to sprawl.
Today, she is undecided about The Development Cor-poration’s proposition to sell KaTom Restaurant Supply 22 acres of land at the Midway Road site and give them a substantial tax break to relo-cate from Hamblen County.
“There are a lot of reasons for me to like this company,” Broyles said at her monthly constituent meeting last week. “I want them in my district, where people could walk to work. This is exact-ly the kind of business the 2nd District wants. This is a community that would wel-come them with open arms.”
KaTom was founded by Patricia Bible and her hus-band, Tommy, who died some years ago, leaving his widow with children to raise and 17 employees to keep working. Today, the business is bursting at the seams and has 62 employees, most of whom will follow the com-pany to Knox County. TDC vice president Todd Napier said KaTom will hire 15 ad-ditional employees once the move is complete, and that the work force should num-ber 135 after fi ve years.
Napier said the problem with Broyles’ observation is that KaTom, which started in Bible’s garage, isn’t willing to look at other county prop-erty. Bible likes the Midway location because of its prox-imity to Hamblen and Jef-ferson counties, where she and most of her employees live, its interstate exposure and its location near the larger population center of Knoxville.
Bob Wolfenbarger, Todd Napier and Amy Broyles share a rare
moment of harmony after a vigorous discussion of KaTom Res-
taurant Supply’s proposal to open a new facility on the Midway
Business Park site. Photo by B. Bean
“I wish I had the ability to tell companies ‘This is where you need to be in Knox Coun-ty’ but they are telling us there are no other sites they are interested in. We have an opportunity to embrace this company, or they will go somewhere else,” said Napier.
Midway Business Park op-
ponent Bob Wolfenbarger, who still opposes develop-ment at Midway, listed po-tential problems, including not having a sewage treat-ment plant anywhere near the site.
“There’s no infrastruc-ture. There’s no sewer. It only recently got water…
The neighborhood’s primary concern is the area around it is heavily riddled with sinkholes. Most everybody up there is on well water and there is a huge concern about polluting the ground water,” Wolfenbarger said.
“At fi rst they were talk-ing about building a regional sewer plant in the vicin-ity of Seven Islands Wildlife Park. We think of the French Broad River as being the pri-mary water supply of the en-tire county of Knox. The ad-dition of those components to the water supply is not a desirable thing.”
Wolfenbarger also pre-dicted that KaTom’s impact on job creation will be mini-mal because it will bring most of its current employees along after the relocation. He said he doubts that a whole-sale operation can generate signifi cant sales tax revenue and he expressed skepticism that KaTom will live up to its end of the bargain.
Napier said Wolfenbarg-er’s speculation has no basis in fact and predicted that KaTom’s moving to Knox County will have spin-off benefi ts beyond tax revenue.
“The real value of a com-pany is the jobs and the life-styles it allows the employ-ees to enjoy,” he said.

ther west, challenged TVA right-of-way specialist Mi-chael Nance’s claim that Ley-land Cypress trees can grow 100 feet high.“UT Extension says they grow 15-25 feet tall. TVA is not giving people good infor-mation. ... There are public spaces that are just going to
be decimated. We’re talking dogwoods, crape myrtles, redbuds, crab apples and all these ornamental trees.”
Kline said Catholic High School and the Cedar Bluff Racquet Club have had trees cut and residents of Kensing-ton have been put on notice that they are next.

Shopper writer Anne Hart found a cutting crew in Kensington
subdivision off Northshore Drive on Thursday. “The puny little
pine trees are nowhere near the power lines. But cutting them
down will horribly damage the value of the homes those trees are
behind. The topography is so that those little pines have pretty
much shielded the neighborhood from the sight of the towers.
No more,” she wrote.
War on trees From page 1
Making the case for kidsSo if you read page 1, you
know that Knox County commissioners visited the town of Farragut last week. At the invitation of Mayor Ralph McGill, they came and dined on boxed Chick-fi l-A and actually had dia-logue. Amazing.
If Superintendent Dr. Jim McIntyre and the school board have any hope of the commission funding their proposed budget, that hope lies in school teachers and principals talking directly to the commissioners.
It also lies in slaying the myths of a bloated cen-tral offi ce and “money not reaching the kids in the classroom,” as stated by Commissioner Jeff Ownby.
Look at it this way.If you sat on the school
board, exactly which money would you cut?
There are the school bus money, the custodians, the lunch room workers, the ter-mite contract. None touches the child in the classroom, but all are necessary to a
smooth functioning system.Sallee Reynolds, princi-
pal at Hardin Valley Acad-emy, told commissioners that high schools previously received $2,700 per year for staff development. That was cut out in a previous round of belt-tightening.
“Now we can’t send any-one and it’s hard enough for us (principals) to go our-selves.” In what other occu-pation do the professionals not attend conferences and training outside the offi ce?
Primary school prin-cipal Julia Craze spoke with humor. She calls por-tables “villas” because it just sounds better to tell a parent their child will be schooled in the villas.
Craze said her school
has not been painted inside since it opened. “Four years ago we were scheduled for painting. We boxed up ev-erything and moved it to the middle of the rooms (for the summer).” The paint-ers never came. “It didn’t happen; it still hasn’t hap-pened.”
Commission chair Mike Hammond asked Craze how the new elementary school at Northshore Center will effect her school.
“I don’t see much relief,” said Craze. “I have four vil-las (8 classrooms) and am scheduled this fall to add two more. I am literally us-ing every inch of space. I am literally just maxed, and I don’t see much relief.”
Over at the Intermedi-ate school, principal Kay Wellons said, “We have one computer lab; we need two. We lost our curriculum teacher for two days (a cut from 5 days to 3). I’d like to see that come back.”
Craze said educators must be resourceful, and
Michael Reynolds called schools “the heart of the community.”

MALCOLM’S CORNER | Malcolm Shell
I was talking to a couple of my Farragut High School classmates a few days ago – Lafayette Wil-liams and Earl Hall – and during our conversation we discussed the area where they grew up, just a few miles southwest of Con-cord Village.
Today, that gently rolling pas-toral area is the home of the new YMCA and subdivisions with homes in the million dollar-plus price range – Montgomery Cove, Mallard Bay, Jefferson Park, Cabot Ridge and numer-ous others – and commercial development has also started to take hold. But 60 years ago the whole area was known to lo-cals as “Possum Valley” and the westernmost end of Northshore Drive was called “Possum Valley Road.”
I wonder how many of the ar-ea’s new residents are aware that they live in Possum Valley.
No one is quite sure how the area acquired its name, but the most plausible explanation seems to be attributed to Gen. Ambrose Burnside’s Union forc-es that wintered there in 1863. In some of the soldiers’ diaries they noted that, “If it had not been for the possums, we would have starved to death.”
One of the notorious residents of the area was Charley Smith, also known as Lying Charley Smith and Possum Valley Char-ley Smith. Charley was one of those characters who delighted in amusing his friends with his tall tales. And people were al-ways glad to see him coming
because they knew they were in for a big laugh. Charley also told stories about himself and the Possum Valley area. I remember him saying once that “if a rabbit ran across the road in front of you, you had better slam on the brakes because there would be a man right behind it.”
Now, Burnside’s soldiers and Charley’s tales suggest that the area was a very poor place where possums were the main food source and men literally tried to run down rabbits for food. But neither of these depictions is ac-curate. In fact, the area was self-contained in that it had its own churches with adjacent cemeter-ies, a school where several class-es were taught in the same room by a single teacher and a country store that was a favorite gather-ing place.
Most of the area’s residents made their living by farming. And like their Scots-Irish ances-tors, they were extremely inde-pendent people who grew their own vegetables, raised their cat-tle and poultry to provide meat for their families, and depended on the sale of their cash crops for income.
And families were very sup-portive of each other. Indeed, it was a place where farmers would readily lend their farm machin-ery and labor to a neighbor who might be temporarily in need. And it was a place where people put in 12-hour workdays six days each week and emphasized the value of such traits as honesty, hard work and virtue in their
Possum Valleytraces roots to Civil War
parenting. And their early train-ing must have had an influence on them because most of the “possum valley boys” excelled in both sports and academics in high school.
Most Possum Valley residents lived in traditional, two-story, clapboard farmhouses at the end of dirt roads. In fact, all of the roads in Possum Valley were dirt, and alternating periods of drought or rain each presented their own problems. During dry periods, you could see vehicles coming far in the distance by the dust cloud, so not many people were inclined to wash their cars or pickup trucks.
Today, the influx of new resi-dents and modern subdivisions has completely changed the area landscape. Single mailboxes and dirt roads leading to farmhouses have been replaced with beauti-ful subdivision entrances that lead to paved streets with excit-ing street names.
And if you ask one of these newcomers where they live, they will proudly say Mallard Bay, Montgomery Cove or Jefferson Park. But if you can find one of the locals –their numbers are de-clining rapidly – and ask where they live, they are apt to say, “Oh, down in Possum Valley.”Gen. Ambrose Burnside

erything to gain so much more, so I could share it with other people,” she said. “It’s been a great ex-
perience. You don’t lose your identity. Family Promise gave me a place of safety to sort things out.
I was only in 40 days, but they’ll stay with you longer as needed (up to two years). It’s a great program.”
McBayne stayed at one of the host churches, Foun-tain City Presbyterian Church, which then hired her. She has been working there a year now and has her own family place. “It’s so small I have to go out-side to change my mind,” she joked.
Faith Promise has 16 host sites and 26 support organizations. The agency can work with four families or 14 family members at a time. It needs a new day center to enable a second rotation serving more families. Info: www.FamilyPromiseKnoxville.org/.

emy students Elisabeth and Thomas Crout joined a team to produce a fi lm in 54 hours to compete in Knox-ville’s 2012 Film Festival.
Elisabeth Crout wrote the story on which the fi lm was based. “The Answer” is about a homeless man’s redemption brought about through an angel’s visit re-vealing his life’s mistakes.
Elisabeth’s twin brother, Thomas Crout, was director. He also fi lmed and edited the production. The main char-acters were played by Tim Burns, Kristian Moats, Zoe Toper, Nathen Dubs, Allison Brown and Hope Nelson.
This fi lm competition is designed to help local fi lm-makers network, have an outlet for their creative tal-ent and ultimately be in-spired to create better fi lms within a competitive envi-ronment. The contestants are given 54 hours to pro-duce their fi lms. There’s not much time to sleep. Thomas slept for maybe 30 minutes

and Elisabeth was too ner-vous to sleep at all, she said.
Thomas and Elisabeth achieved their goal of immer-sion into local fi lm making. It was worth the sleep depriva-tion, said Thomas. “We have learned how to make a fi lm
in 54 hours and how to work better as a fi lming team. It was extremely fun.”
The Crouts defi nitely rec-ommend the competition to others, and they are making plans for next year’s event with a strong team of 25.

The Farragut/Knox County Schools Joint Education Relations Commit-tee has asked principals at schools that serve Farragut students to pro-vide a “wish list” of things their schools need. If you can help with this list through monetary donations, equipment or materials, contact the princi-pal directly. The town of Farragut contributes $10,000 per year to each of the schools, but the schools are still short on funding for some items.
Farragut High School, Principal Michael Reynolds, [email protected]
Short-term needs:1. Money totaling $5,500 per semester to staff a two-day per week
after-school math, science and English learning center for all stu-dents.
2. The school needs $10,000 for satellite wireless hubs integrated to the existing central server. This would complete the campus wireless system and eliminate current bottlenecks of faculty and administration accessing the current system.
Long-term needs:1. Lights along the street by the ballfi elds from Kingston Pike to the
school campus.2. Paving throughout the campus.
TEACHER’S
WISHLIST
By Theresa EdwardsX-Games medalist Matt
Wilhelm entertained Far-ragut Intermediate School students with amazing bike stunts. It was a re-ward and celebration for their magazine fundraiser for technology including iPads and Macintosh note-books.
Matt Wilhelm won three X-Games medals and twice won a national championship. The first year he competed, he came in last place. But he did not give up, and his perseverance paid off. He encouraged students to also keep trying and not give up on their dreams. It took eight years for Wil-helm to learn the “tornado spin” stunt which won him a $25,000 prize.
Last year, Wilhelm made it to semifinals in “America’s Got Talent” with his glow-in-the-dark bike stunts.
Wilhelm also taught bike safety, telling the stu-dents: “Please wear a hel-met. … It may save your life.”
He also explained the importance of walking your bike across intersec-tions instead of riding it. A race with students demon-strated it is quicker to run short distances than ride a bike. If needed, a per-son can drop her bike and escape from an oncom-ing vehicle. “My bike cost $2,000, but I would drop it in a second if needed to save my life, because my bike can be replaced, but there is only one Matt Wil-helm.”
Wilhelm also started playing the saxophone in 5th grade and received a music scholarship for col-lege. He graduated with honors and straight A’s. “It was important to me to be a biker, but even more important to be in school,” he said. “Find your talent and do it, and go to col-lege. Always be safe.”X-Games Medalist Matt Wilhelm entertains Farragut Interme-
diate students with a bike stunt.
Teachers Casey Robison, Beth Doughty and Beth Kennedy receive loud cheers as Matt Wilhelm
prepares to jump his bike over them. The teachers lay side by side on the fl oor with the one
receiving the loudest cheer put in the most dangerous spot. Nobody was hurt in this stunt.

By Rob WebbWhile the overall job mar-
ket may be tough right now, job p r o s p e c t s are good for those pursu-ing careers in emergen-cy services. According to the U.S. Bu-
reau of Labor Statistics, em-ployment is expected to grow in all emergency sectors.
Aging baby boomers will contribute to an increased demand for fi rst respond-ers, EMTs and paramed-ics. Emergency room over-crowding and hospital specialization can also cre-ate longer patient transport times making additional emergency service provid-ers necessary.
Rural/Metro is one of the largest employers of emer-
gency service professionals in East Tennessee, employ-ing more than 800 EMTs, paramedics, fi refi ghters, telecommunicators and sup-port personnel. We have a compassionate and commit-ted team which continues to grow to meet the needs of our community.
When you are committed to your work, it is exciting to help others get involved. That’s why several Rural/Metro professionals recently spent a day speaking to stu-dents about the emergency services fi eld during the Knox County Schools Career Fair held at the Knoxville Expo Center. We were one of nearly 80 local employers on site to give high school stu-dents information on career options.
Many students were genu-inely interested in learning about emergency service. Others enjoyed checking
out our latest technology, in-cluding our state-of-the-art ambulance, fi re truck and the Segways used to help us respond in densely popu-lated venues such as sporting events and festivals.
We are also reaching out to future emergency service providers through a new pilot program for fi refi ghter train-ing with seniors at South-Doyle High School.
The Fire Cadet Academy is a two-part training pro-gram in conjunction with our state-accredited Fire Academy to offer interested students the fi rst phase of fi refi ghter instruction dur-ing the school year. Upon successful completion of the course and graduation from school, qualifying cadets will be able to com-plete their training and ac-tual live-fi re experience as reserve fi refi ghters. When the 240-hour training pro-

gram is complete, students are qualifi ed to test for cer-tifi cation as a Level 1 Fire-fi ghter, the minimum level required by most fi re de-partments.
Rural/Metro is proud to partner with Knox Coun-ty Schools on a variety of safety programs and ser-vices. But it is especially rewarding to help students
interested in emergency services pursue a career in this growing fi eld and join the dedicated professionals who serve and protect our community.

cool guy – the very type you would expect to create the coolest of cool lines in men’s fashions. He’s a walking advertisement for his product.
And sure enough, since its launch just eight years ago, the Johnnie-O ap-parel line for men, women and children has achieved meteoric popularity na-tionwide. M.S. McClellan & Co. in Bearden carries it exclusively in this area.
O’Donnell, who lives in Los Angeles, and his senior vice president of sales, Quinn Veysey, based in Greenwich, Conn., have been in Knoxville for Mc-Clellan’s trunk show of the Johnnie-O spring and summer styles, including polo shirts for both men and women, belts, beach towels, jackets, visors, hats, f leece vests, and men’s and boys’ ties, all in bright colors.
O’Donnell defines his apparel as “East Coast preppy meets West Coast cool.” It’s a perfect de-scription, and it all start-ed when O’Donnell – just for fun – cobbled together some polo-style shirts for his golfing buddies. In-stead of an alligator or some other familiar logo on the front of the shirts, O’Donnell applied a surfer guy and a surfboard in a contrasting color to that of the shirt.
The shirts were a hit, and other people start-ing wanting them. Before long, O’Donnell had his
own line of clothing. The shirts are now seen on stars in movies and on TV and on sports figures all over the world.
Not surprising, because Johnnie-O polos aren’t like others in the market today. The front placket is longer – four buttons instead of three – like the style had when it origi-nally debuted decades ago. The collar is pointed again, and the fabric is
different, too. None of that stiff, scratchy pique here. The shirts are made of high quality 100 percent cotton jersey.
Johnnie-O’s designs are both classic and ca-sual, but not so casual that they’re sloppy. They’re comfortable, great-look-ing and just plain cool. Like their designer.

NEWS FROM WEBB SCHOOL OF KNOXVILLE
By Scott Hutchinson,By Scott Hutchinson,Webb School PresidentWebb School President
For well over 50 years now, Webb School of Knoxville has provided
area students, ages 5-18, with an academically rigorous, broad-
based liberal arts, college preparatory experience. Among the strengths of the school over time has been the vast array of interesting and relevant curricular offerings. In the 480-student high school alone
there are courses that range from Shakespeare to Chaos and Fractals, from Forensic Science to Mandarin Chinese. Additionally, Webb’s Upper School offers 25 Advanced Placement classes and more than 30 arts-related courses. Students who come up through the Lower and Middle schools are likewise exposed to a strong core curriculum of English, mathematics, science, social studies, and a second language, as well as a varied and vibrant pool of electives.
In 2012-2013, Webb will expand its offerings on two fronts – engineering and computer programming. On the engineering front, Webb will offer an after-school, LEGO-based engineering club for grades three through fi ve; a required seven-week course in engineering in the sixth grade; a semester-long engineering elective in both the seventh and eighth grades; and three elective engineering courses in the high school. The three Upper School courses include an introductory semester course, a full-year course with an interscholastic robotics competition piece included, and an advanced semester course. On the computer science front, Webb’s high school will offer three courses as well – an introductory programming course, a full-year AP computer science course, and an advanced computer-programming course for iPad development.
The goal of a successful K-12 education is largely threefold.
■ First, it is to engender a love of learning and to awaken in young people the notion that lifelong learn-ing is critical to one’s more complete development and to a more fulfi lling and productive adult life.
Hutchinson
Webb’s Team #1466 was among the 50-plus teams, representing schools from as far
away as Ontario, Canada to across the Southeast, to compete at the 2012 FIRST (“For
Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology”) Smoky Mountain Regional
robotics competition, March 1-3, in Knoxville. Team #1466 is gearing up for its next
competition – the Queen City Regional in Cincinnati, OH, April 5-7.
Preparing Students forTomorrow’s World
At this year’s FIRST Smoky Mountain Regional robotics competition in Knoxville, one of the city’s own, Sam Bacon – a Webb School Class of 2008 graduate and former robotics team member; now a senior at University of Tennessee and a mentor for Webb’s robotics team #1466 – was named the Regional Woodie Flowers Award (WFA) winner.
This prestigious FIRST Robotics Competition award recognizes robotics team mentors who lead, teach, inspire, and empower students to reach their goals. FIRST names one adult team mentor a Regional WFA recipient at each of the some 70 regional competitions, worldwide.
Students on each robotics team pick candidates for the award. They must then submit an essay describing the qualities of their nominee and why he or she deserves the honor. More than 50 teams representing schools from as far away as Ontario, Canada, Indiana and Ohio to squads from across the Southeast, including Webb School, competed at this year’s Smoky Mountain Regional. Of those mentors nominated for the Knoxville competition, Bacon was declared the Regional WFA winner.
In her nominating essay to FIRST, Webb senior Ishi Keenum described Bacon’s commitment to

Webb alumnus and former robotics team member Sam Bacon has mentored Webb’s robotics
team for the past three years. This year, he won FIRST’s prestigious Woodie Flowers Award for
the Smoky Mountain Regional. (above) Sam Bacon (third from right) and Webb Team #1466

■ Second, it is to equip young people with a wide array of litera-cies so that they can function as knowledgeable and enlightened citizens within their communities.
■ And third, it is to equip young people with the salient thinking skills,
knowledge base, and work habits to provide them with the requisite foun-dation to help secure quality jobs in an increasingly competitive world. By adding these new course offerings to our curriculum, Webb School continues to better address all three objectives.
advancing FIRST Robotics and to developing leaders within Webb’s team. “Sam cares more about building a competent, problem-solving team than winning,” writes Keenum. “He cares only that the team is united and knows that if not all members understand the robot, we will have failed.”
As team coach/mentor, Bacon constantly takes it upon himself to encourage learning, according to Keenum. “Sam personally taught me LabVIEW,
and it was only later that I learned that he had never worked in that program before, and was studying tutorials each night to keep ahead of me,” she noted.
Keenum also wrote about Bacon’s greater vision for FIRST in Knoxville, describing how he recruited his UT classmates to regularly help students at the area’s Girls and Boys clubs to further their STEM education. Bacon worked closely with the clubs to develop effective ways to teach STEM, including the purchase of LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT robotics kits to help tackle problem solving. He’s also been a member of the Smoky Mountain Regional planning committee for the past two years, and has offered his expertise to other robotics teams, especially local rookie squads.
Sam Bacon “motivates us,” concludes Keenum. “He inspires our team by showing us what we can achieve after
high school. Sam dedicates himself to making us better-informed and effective as a team, and because of him, we are successful.”
As a 2012 Regional WFA winner, Sam Bacon is automatically eligible to win the national 2012 Championship Woodie Flowers Award. Currently, he’s helping Team #1466 prepare for its next competition – the Queen City Regional in Cincinnati, OH, April 5-7.

Gammon/Heatherly Series strives to care for caregivers
Speakers from The Davidson Centre for the Professions will be featured during the 2012 Gammon/Heatherly Series, an annual series of lectures targeted at chaplains, pastors, physicians, nurses, social workers and other caregivers.
Set for 7:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Thursday, March 29, at Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center and 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Parkwest Medical Center, this year’s lectures are geared toward providing those caregivers the resources needed to prevent burnout.
Participants are invited to attend three of four seminars (two in the morning session, one in the afternoon) focusing on “Mind,” “Body,” “Spirit” and “Praxis (or active process).”
Titled “Sustaining Resilient Leaders: Tools to Build Personal and Professional Resilience,” the sessions will feature Dr. George W. Jacobs, president of the Da-vidson Centre for the Professions, and Davidson staffers Dr. Cynthia Ackrill, Leesa Sluder and Rabbi Barbara Thiede.
Jacobs, who co-founded the The Da-vidson Centre for the Professions in Da-vidson, N.C., in 2003 as a program for wellness, revitalization and reminder of purpose for clergy and church pro-fessionals, will launch the Gammon/Heatherly Series at a Physician Break-fast with his talk on “Caregivers as Unique Professionals.” He will later be joined by Ackrill, Sluder and Thiede at the 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. plenary session, “Resilience of Mind, Body, Spirit and Praxis,” in the Thompson Cancer Sur-vival Center auditorium.
The first breakout group session is 10:45 to 11:45 a.m. and the second ses-sion 1-2 p.m. Lunch will be provided 11:50 a.m. to 12:50 p.m. at the Fort Sand-ers Regional Medical Center cafeteria.
In the seminar dealing with the “Mind,” Jacobs looks at information overload or how, in an age where we have access to more information than anytime in human history, we may have
has become so pervasive caregivers of-ten discount its impact and rationalize denial. Ackrill also looks at how we can manage our energy level and make sig-nificant improvements in our health,focus and happiness.
Thiede, who serves as rabbi for Tem-ple Or Olam and as a Mashpiah (a spiri-tual director in the Jewish tradition),is the featured speaker for the “Spirit”seminar. She will look at nurturing an “awareness and exploration of the sa-cred” in life as well as finding meaningand connection in everyday life.
Sluder, who combines a 25-year fi-nance career with a psychology back-ground and executive coaching expe-rience, will examine “Praxis,” a Greek term for the process by which a theory, lesson or skill is practiced or enacted. In this seminar, Sluder will look at how coaching supports transition, how toovercome obstacles, and develop a vi-sion and set goals for a healthy profes-sional and personal life.
The seminar series, established in1983, is named after the late Rev. Jo-seph Gammon, a former chaplain atFort Sanders Regional Medical Center,and this year marks the first joint effortwith the inaugural event at Parkwest Medical Center in honor of former CAO Wayne Heatherly.
Registration fee is $20 (make checks payable to Fort Sanders Regional Medi-cal Center, Pastoral Care), include $10 for Continuing Education Unit credit or $50 for theological and medical professionals. Approval is pending for Continuing Medical Education credit, which will require a $25 fee.
For more information about the lecture series, call the Fort Sand-ers Regional Medical Center Pasto-ral Care offi ce at 865-541-1235. For more about Davidson Centre for the Professions, visit davcp.com.
Bikers revving up for ‘We Care Ride’
Bikers are invited to get their motor running 9 a.m. Saturday, April 21, as the 2012 “We Care Ride” makes its annual 90-mile trek to benefi t the Fort Sanders Foundation and Parkwest Medical Center Chaplain Fund.
The ride will begin with late registration 8:30-9 a.m. in the physician park-ing lot at Parkwest Medical Center, 9352 Park West Blvd., Knoxville. Bikers will ride to Fort Loudoun Medical Center and Methodist Medi-cal Center in Oak Ridge before returning to Parkwest.
The $25 per rider (and $10 per passenger) registration fee includes snacks during the ride and a light lunch at the end of the ride. The fee helps support the We Care Campaign, a fund-raising effort that enhances patient care and support programs at facilities within Covenant Health. It also benefi ts the Parkwest Chaplain Fund which provides services for patients, visi-tors and employees in need.
For more information about the “We Care Ride,” call Chaplain David Bluford at 865-373-1630.

“We believe silliness is the comedy relief of life, and since we are all in it

The Strang group is led by “Queen” Peggy Max-well. “The Red Hat Society started here eight years ago,” said Maxwell. “I came mainly because my mother wanted to come to it. By the third meeting, I was put on the board. Now I’m Queen and am not sure how I ended up in that po-

Darla Dunn is partici-pating in the Covenant Health Knoxville Mara-thon Biggest Winner Weight Loss Challenge with a group of others who lean on one another for in-spiration and support.
In addition to her hu-man teammates, Dunn has another special train-ing partner who gives her endless support and an unconditional shoulder to lean on.
Well, he doesn’t really
have shoulders. He has four paws.
Dunn has been training for the marathon with her German shepherd/Dober-man mix, Zombie. She ad-opted him a couple of years ago from a local rescue group and would encour-
age anyone looking for a pet to do the same.
“Training the last few months with Zombie has so deeply strengthened our bond and makes exercise so much fun,” said Dunn. “I cannot stress the excel-lence of it to others enough.
“I’m not always so com-fortable in public, so he gives me something to focus on besides my own head,” said Dunn about her training sessions. Zombie helps her stay motivated while being active himself and improving his own so-cial skills.
Dunn says her form suf-
fers occasionally from try-ing not to step on Zombie, but otherwise he helps keep her pumped up during a practice run.
The Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon week-end is Saturday, March 31, and Sunday, April 1. Events will include a one-mile kids run on Saturday and a marathon, half-marathon, four-person marathon re-lay and 5k races on Sunday morning. Online registra-tion ends Tuesday, March 27, but onsite registration will also be available. Info: www.knoxvillemarathon.com.
