Fearing an undesired increasein traffic along Old Stage Road,Steeplechase subdivision’s 33households have overwhelmingbeen against the Watt Roadextension according to ShermanPatterson, homeowners associa-tion treasurer and spokesman.

To make the best of anunwanted intersection whereSteeplechase’s Old Stageentrance lines up with the newextension, the vast majority ofSteeplechase residents,Patterson added, would like tosee a four-way stop there.

“Everybody I talk to does,” hesaid. “We’ve got a lot of olderpeople living here, and it was adanger going out the back sidewhen we had to go out that way,because you can’t see on DixonRoad when you go out the backentrance.”

“My guess is it would not bewarranted for a multi-way stop,”Darryl Smith, Town engineer,said about the two roads not hav-ing enough traffic volume. “Wewould probably take a look at itwith just one citizen coming for-ward.

“Anytime someone puts outwhat they believe is a safetyissue, we’ll take a look at it,”Smith added. “Right now I wouldrecommend, though, that wewait until traffic patterns getkind of stabilized … I wouldguess about six months” fromthe time it opened July 1.

As of mid-July, “There are a lotof people that still aren’t awarethat that route is open,” Smithsaid. “And once school starts,traffic patterns change a littlebit.”

Patterson said he would wel-come a traffic count evaluationby Smith and the Town if itwould help bring about the four-way stop.

As the subdivision’s first everresident (since 1982) who livesclose to the intersection, Patter-son said he recently made anobservation: “most of the cars”coming off Watt Road extensionto Old Stage “go toward LoudonCounty. It’s a good cut throughfor Loudon County [drivers],they don’t have to go through thetraffic lights.”

Neighborhood asks for 4-way stop

Residents of Steeplechase subdivision said they believe the intersection created with the open-ing of the Watt Road extension has created the need for a 4-way stop.

Three seek District 7 state senate seat■ ALAN SLOAN

[email protected]

Mike Alford said he’s more intune with transportation growthfor Knox County, which meanslong-time economic growth, ver-sus District 7 State Sen. StaceyCampfield or challenger Dr.Richard Briggs.

Yet among these threeRepublican candidates forDistrict 7 state senate, Alfordadmitted he needs to learn moreabout the state’s mountingTennCare cost and coverageproblems.

“I’m a little outside the box asfar as everything that’s beengoing on,” said Alford, 53, a tourbus driver from West Knoxville,

and former engineer, who hasnever held elected office. He lostthe 2006 District 4 race for KnoxCounty Commission.

However, “I’m a clear, open-minded individual that will lis-ten to the constituents and lis-ten to the state legislature ofwhat’s going on, and decide fromthere,” Alford added. “I havepatience, I read a lot and I lis-ten.”

While stating he is “friendswith Stacey, I agree with him ona lot of issues,” Alford empha-sized that one of his motivationsto run concerns transportationinfrastructure.

“Knoxville needs to grow,”Alford said, adding he was infavor of the proposed Interstate

routes that would have com-pletely bypassed Knoxville,w h i c hincluded the“ O r a n g e ”and “Blue”r o u t e s ,before theplan waskilled a fewyears ago.

“I thinkthe I-40/I-75corridor isdue another expansion. … Ithink it’s due to happen ifKnoxville is going to bring in anykind of commercial develop-ment,” Alford added.

Concerning the state’s Tenn-Care challenge to cover its poor-

est citizens, Campfield said theproblem is much more due to“more a mixof manage-ment issuesmixed withbad lawsuitd e c i s i o n sand federalregulationson top.”

As for hisp o s s i b l es o l u t i o n s ,Campfield said former Gov. PhilBredesen failed to reducemounting TennCare expenses“with his plan of surgical strate-gic cuts. … A few months in evenhe realized it wasn’t workable atall and ended up having to do

cuts with a hatchet. It waspainful.

“ T h eObamaCareM e d i c a i de x p a n s i o nmoney justsets us backup on thatp a t h , ”C a m p f i e l dadded aboutT h eAffordable Healthcare Act.“That’s one of the reasons I amso against it. I know it’s just thefederal government trying to giveus a hand grenade with no pin.”

FMPC approves zone change to Villas■ TAMMY CHEEK

[email protected]

Saddlebrook Properties, LLC,the new developers wanting tobuy and develop Villas at AnchorPark, have received approval forthe Villas’ zone to be changedfrom attached single-family resi-dential to open space mixed res-idential overlay, which wouldallow detached dwellings.

Farragut Municipal PlanningCommission voted unanimouslyto allow the zoning change dur-ing its meeting Thursday, July 17.

Mark Shipley, FarragutCommunity Development direc-

tor, said the final plat included35 units on 11 acres. The unitswere platted as duplexes orattached single-family dwellings.

Only one building was con-structed, he added.

However, because of thechanging market the currentproperty owners, McBrideCompany, want to sell the devel-opment to Saddlebrook Prop-erties, LLC, which wants to builddetached dwellings.

The only other zoning districtthat type of development fallsunder is R-1 OSMR, Shipley said,adding the development wouldbe similar to the Cottages at

Pryse Farm. He added he thinksthe amendment is compatiblewith the land use plan.

“What they are requesting isinstead of 99 units, there would be62 units and they are increasingthe open space,” Shipley said.

“That would be a net positive,and the staff recommendedapproval,” he said.

“I remember we talked aboutthe traffic,” Rita Holladay,Commission chairman, said.

Shipley said the amendmentwould reduce the density.

On another matter, theCommission went over a draft ofproposed amendments Shipley’s

staff made to the Town’s regula-tions on multi-family dwellings.Although commissioners took noformal vote on the changes,many received a nod of approval.

This follows a three-hour tourcommissioners took Wednesday,July 9, of developments andbuffer strips in and around Town.

Holladay said, “The consensusof folks felt it was helpful to seethese [developments] up closesince we decided to do some-thing [with the ordinance].”

The biggest changes were tolessen some setback and bufferstrip requirements, as well asadding new requirements to

encourage developers to buildparking spaces and other noisyelements away from other resi-dential developments.

An example of one proposedchange reads units positionedalong the side or rear propertyline would have a setback of 35feet instead of the current 50feet. The proposed draft also:

• Allows a landscape design ina front yard instead of a bufferstrip,

• Eliminates the maximum lotsize, which is currently 15 acres,

• Requires a maximum overalldensity to not exceed 12 unitsper acre.

surgeon and current 5th DistrictKnox County commissioner,said, “I think the most immedi-ate likelihood to get somethingdone is that the federal govern-ment needs to give Tennessee awaiver so we can get a blockgrant so we can get some ofthese people covered. … To buyinsurance on the private market.

“… And you have to havesome personal responsibility onthe part of TennCare recipients.The part of TennCare that’s cost-ing the state the most deals withthe cost of drugs,” he added. “…The TennCare program wouldpay for the five most expensivedrugs, and the patient would beresponsible for the others. …The state would pay for rarecases” where more than fiveexpensive drugs were needed.

Briggs cited TennCare expens-

es from 1995 to 2006 where alldrug costs, regardless of cost,were covered. “The cost of drugshad escalated so much it wastaking 40 percent of the satebudget,” he said, adding that anew program must giveTennCare recipients incentive tochoose cheaper yet still effectivedrugs.

“In Tennessee, do we want toraise the sales tax to 12 or 15percent to pay for some of this? Idon’t think so,” Briggs said.

As for cutting the budget tomake room for TennCare expan-sion, “Thirty to 31 percent of thestate budget is TennCare. Thenext largest is education. Do wewant to take $200 million a yearout of education? … It meansthat we would have to fire 4,000teachers [if their averageincome were $50,000 a year],”Briggs added. “We don’t want todo that.”

SenateFrom page 1AFY 2014-5 committees, boards set

■ TAMMY CHEEK [email protected]

Some new faces will be seenthis year on some of the Town’scommittees and boards joiningpresent members.

Farragut Board of Mayor andAldermen appointed the mem-bers during its Thursday, June12, meeting, and approved its2014-2015 budget as well.

Before the meeting, Boardmembers discussed the appoint-ments in a workshop.

“You have folks who have putin a lot of years who could beoffended if not chosen, and atthe same time, you have newones,” Alderman Ron Honkensaid. “I think it would be worth-while to expand a couple ofthese boards.”

Honken said since several ofthe new candidates for theboards were recent graduates ofthe Intro to Farragut program,he thought they should beplaced on a committee or board.

However, Alderman JeffElliott said while choosing is achallenge, the Board cannotkeep expanding committeesizes.

The Board did agree to extendthe Beautification Committeesize.

The following appointmentswere made:

• Farragut Arts Council —Beverley Hammon, Nancy Wentz,Pamela Ziegler, Sandy Garber,Shandy Dixon and Susan Suter

• Beautification Committee— Marty Rodgers, MarieLeonard, Betty Scott, BarbaraAllman, Jeanie Stow and HolleyJanney

• Museum Advisory Board —Jack Haines, Doris Henning,Loretta Bradley, Jack Bond-urant, Joyce Moran and MarthaCook

• Parks and Athletics Council— Michael Peters, NadiaKogeler, Pat Sloan, Tim Hill andClark Brekke

• Board of Zoning Appeals —Keith Alley

• Plumbing, Gas andMechanical — Chris Buncan,Nicholas Moskal and WesTankersley.

• Visual Resources ReviewBoard — Brittany Moore, DuaneWinkler and Edwin Anderson.

• Personnel Committee —Robert Pollock, Debby Wrightand Drew Carson.

• School Liaison Committee— Tony Carasso, Kelly Darden,Carla Werner and Lee Wickman.

• Stormwater — DebbieFraser, Valerie McFall, Kenneth

Hawkins and Marie Meszaros. The Board also voted unani-

mously to approve the Town’s FY2014-15 budget on second andfinal reading.

Town administrator DavidSmoak said the proposed budgetis balanced and includes threechanges the Board approved onfirst reading last month:

• Reduce the proposedemployee merit package from 3to 2 percent, a $27,562 change

• Provide no increase tohealth insurance

• Increase the Town’s contri-bution to the News Sentinel GolfTournament from $16,500 to$20,000.

The Board also approved anincrease for a stormwater infra-structure analysis of $50,000.

Everett Road and Watt Roadintersections, by traveling theentire length of Old Stage,between the Farragut intersec-tion with Kingston Pike [atPrimrose School of Farragut]and the Loudon County intersec-tion with what becomes stateHighway 11 just west of DixieLee Junction.

Patterson said Old Stage Roadimprovements were needed, but“they took up so much of theyards from the bicycle trail andgreenspace” unnecessarilybecause they are little used.“There ain’t no bicycles on it,” headded.

The remaining portion of OldStage Road in Loudon County,

which was not reconstructed, “isterrible,” Patterson said, adding“TDOT could have” taken the ini-tiative to get that portionimproved.

“TDOT should have taken themoney to extend Watt Road andwidened the [Old Stage] Roadall the way to Highway 11” inLoudon County. … LoudonCounty would have pitched inthe 20 percent I’m sure,” headded.

Patterson said he attendedthe Thursday, July 10 Board ofMayor and Aldermen meeting inTown Hall “to ask for support ofthe four-way stop.” But noCitizens Forum invitation for“two or three of us that wantedto speak” was extended, headded.

letterstotheeditorpresstalk 671-TALKJohns picks Markli,Williams, Zachary

Per the upcoming Town ofFarragut elections, I wouldstrongly advise based on theirbusiness sales experience, entre-preneurial know how, and com-munity volunteerism that voterssupport Bob Markli for re-elec-tion for the Farragut — Northand Ron Williams for election forthe Farragut — South. It is alsomy hope that the Town ofFarragut will migrate soon in thefuture from a “districting elec-tion” (North, South) to a “posi-tion election” (Alderman 1,Alderman 2, etc.) which mostbenchmark communities have.Specifically, all town of Farragutresidents should have the oppor-tunity to vote on ALL of its elect-ed representatives who havefiduciary and leadership authori-ty over the community.

Per the Tennessee District 2House of Representatives elec-tion, I am supporting and votingfor Mr. Jason Zachary. Mr.Zachary is exactly what we needfor our region representingentrepreneurs and families. Rep.Jimmy Duncan is out of touchwith the values and wishes of ourdistrict. Most importantly, Ibelieve 50 years of public serviceof any political family exceedsthe vision of our country’s found-ing fathers as described in thegood faith purpose of Article I,Section 2 of the U.S.Constitution, which was also cre-ated as a direct response toEngland and its royal monar-chies.

Per the renewal of the Redflexcamera contract, I consult andam very knowledgeable in thetransportation and supply chainsoftware industry. I would pro-fessionally advise the town ofFarragut in canceling theRedflex contract as Oak Ridgeand many other communitieshave recently decided to do so.With the recent unethical andfiduciary conduct by its U.S.Redflex executives and continu-ous challenges to its technologyand business practices, the townof Farragut should quickly moveaway from this company. Simply,the bribery and “kick back”schemes to public administra-tors and elected officials thathas been in the recent news inother communities is calling intoquestion many of Redflex’s exist-ing contracts and relationships.Likewise, with recent rulingsagainst Redflex’s core technolo-gies and algorithms, I believe theTOF should distance itself fromsuch company by not renewingor pursuing any traffic camera(or future drone camera) con-tracts. With the potential of arevenue short fall for the TOFfrom the traffic cameras, Ibelieve there are plenty of othereconomic development opportu-nities to harvest business andSales Tax dollars just as much asthere are opportunities in slow-ing down the community’sspending spree.

Introducing RonWilliams

Good morning Farragut,Allow me to introduce myself

to the folks who I have not met. Iam Ron Williams, a Farragut res-ident for the past 20 years who isrunning for Ward 2 Alderman.

Due to limited space I will notmake a list of past accomplish-ments but instead just a fewwords of greeting.

I was born and raised inKnoxville where I attended oldCentral High and The Universityof Tennessee. I am a senior salesand application engineer for afamily-owned machine tool man-ufacturer in St. Louis, Mo. Forthe past 27 years I have workedout of my home office travelingall over the Southeast advisingmanufacturers on how to worksmarter.

In my spare time I have servedas a director on four differentneighborhood boards with thegoal of improving our commonareas and growing our amenities.I currently serve on the FarragutBoard of Zoning Appeals. My goalin this position has been to takea common sense view and be thevoice of reason. I hope to do thesame if elected as a Ward 2Alderman. During my brief cam-paign I have not accepted anydonations and I am not tied toany special interest group. I lookforward to meeting more of myneighbors in the future andwould appreciate your vote inthe upcoming election.

Ron WilliamsFarragut

• I think Farragut should stickto [its] guns on [its] sign ordi-nance. The reason Farragut issuch a nice community isbecause there are not a lot ofrandom signs all over Town likePigeon Forge for example.Businesses want to cash in onthe wealth of doing business inthe community, but don’t likefollowing the rules that makethe community a great place tolive and bring the wealthy peo-ple into the area. I purposefullydo not frequent businesses[that] in bad taste post theirsigns illegally throughout thecommunity. I just wish KnoxCounty had such a strict signordinance.

• Had to laugh at the flowerguy and his wife complainingabout the Farragut sign ordi-nance. The story said the guydrove past a rodeo sign on hisway to Town Hall that was ille-gal. The only rodeo sign I haveseen is the one on NorthshoreDrive near the YMCA. That areais in Knox County and isn’t inFarragut. Wish these peoplewould learn their geographybefore opening mouth andinserting foot.

• No other expression butflabbergasted can cover my emo-tions of being continuallyamazed by the poor drivers inthe [United] States but mainlyI’m concerned with the onesright here in Farragut. Leavingthe beautiful [Ingles] Marketthat sits just to the left of thefarragutpress offices I watchedthe other day as a woman in avery nice new midsized shinySUV-type vehicle climbed in put-ting her car in reverse and notonce turned her noggin back tosee who or what might bebehind her as she proceeds toback out, not a clue that a youngdriver directly behind her in asmaller vehicle is also backingout, I might clarify that theyounger driver was 75 percentout of her parking slot whenMiss SUV began her outing,some other driver began to honktheir horn in the hopes of alert-ing one of the drivers to stop,look and listen at what might begoing on. Of course the verymuch younger driver saw whatwas happening as she indeedhad been looking back like a

good little driver and also beganto honk her horn no doubt hop-ing that she would not be struckbroadside by Miss SUV, finallythe midlife woman stepped onher brakes, mind you never oncebothering to turn her head tosee what was going on, there Isit totally in amazement over anear accident, which was avert-ed by the kindness of a thirddriver. Miss SUV seeing in hermirror that the younger driverhad left the immediate areabegan again to back up, neverturning her head again!!! WOWLADY ... Uh, uh, she is just rely-ing too heavily on her reviewcamera to do all the work for heror she is just plan arrogantthinking she has the right of wayno matter that she does not. Isay you better learn to stopbeing so lazy and take a few min-utes to turn your stiff midlifeneck around and see if the coastis clear, or just stop driving alto-gether if you can’t better yourskills. I have long ago learned topark on the outskirts of the lotrain or shine, hot or cold, just toavoid just such lame people whobelieve they can do no wrong.Sad situation how selfishAmericans have become evenhere in [the] little townFarragut. Wonder who of youreading this is guilty of just thistype of driving no-no?

• I am glad to hear that theTown is going to stabilize the cutslope along Turkey Creek Roadthat has failed multiple timesover the years. As it is too late tocomplete the job before start ofthe 2014-2015 school year, I dohope the planned 28-day closurewill occur in the summer of 2015to minimize the impact onschool traffic for the hundreds offamilies that live west of theplanned road closure.

Editor’s Note: According toTown spokesperson ChelseyRiemann, the project has to becompleted this year. The Towndoes not have a firm date setwith the contractor, but theproject is to be completed byOct. 31. Once a start date isgiven by the contractor, the con-tractor will have 42 days tocomplete all work, and theTown will allow full closure ofTurkey Creek Road for a periodnot to exceed 28 days. Motorists

will be informed at both ends ofTurkey Creek Road that theroadway is closed to thru traf-fic. Anyone approaching theroad closures will be able toturn around on subdivisionstreets at the closure points. TheTown does not plan to assign adesignated detour route, asmost traffic on this road is local.The Town will receive a 14-dayadvance notice from the con-tractor of any road closure so itcan adequately inform the pub-lic.

• Shocked and saddened tolearn that Mike Reynolds is goingto be replaced as principal atFarragut High School. He hasdone so much to improve theschool. He has fought for our

teachers, our students, for ourhonors classes and for all of theprograms that we have. I cannotimage what has gone on that hasresulted in his being removedfrom the school. The messagethat [Knox County Schools] sentout [Monday, July 14] was verysad. It’s quite obvious this wasnot his choice. Not sure where hewill be going, but all I can say isbest wishes to him and thanksfor all that you have done tomake Farragut High School oneof the top schools in the country,period.

Editor’s Note: MichaelReynolds has been assigned tothe principal position atCentral High School inKnoxville as was published in

our Thursday, July 17, issue.Knox County Schools has notadvised farragutpress of hisreplacement.

• I’d like to ask the town ofFarragut how they can millVirtue Road and leave largebumps in the road without put-ting any construction signs, anywarning signs, any notificationsigns at all up on either end ofthat construction project.

• I’m calling to say how grate-ful I am that they have put a side-walk in front of Hardee’s. Now Ican walk to get my doublecheeseburger.

Rising FHS senior captures Fox Den Ladies Golf crown

Photo submitted

Shortly after winning 2014 Fox Den Ladies 18-Hole Club Championship, Farragut High Schoolrising senior Elizabeth Keeling, second from left, joins in a post-tourney celebration toast witha non-alcoholic beverage, a Sprite. Keeling is joined by her caddie, Carol Hornstra, left; run-ner-up Catherine Manning, second from right, and her caddie, Brenda Curtis.


One thing different aboutElizabeth Keeling winning FoxDen Ladies 18-Hole ClubChampionship was the cele-bration: she had to settle forSprite instead of the custom-ary champagne.

“It's a nice accomplishment,and it was also a fun one to goabout getting because theladies there are so nice,” saidKeeling, a 17-year-old risingsenior at Farragut High Schooland one of the FHS LadyAdmirals’ top golfers, who wonthis year’s 18-Hole ClubChampionship Flight matchplay showdown versus defend-ing champ Catherine Manning,5 & 4, Thursday afternoon,July 17.

“I was just hitting greens,which always helps because itgives you birdie opportunities,”Keeling added about her keysto success against Manning.“And even if I wasn't makingbirdies I was consistently mak-

ing pars. … My iron play wasgood. It all kind of cametogether.”

A member of Fox DenCountry Club “for a couple ofyears” who played in her first18-Hole Club Championship,Keeling's win culminated athree-day event among aneight-player ChampionshipFlight field that beganTuesday, July 15.

Other first-place awardswere: First Flight, KathyJackson won by default versusKaren Jones.

Second Flight, DonnaFarinella defeated JanetGreen in 19 holes.

Keeling’s semifinal matchWednesday, July 16, againstCarolyn Levy was a test of thisteenager's short memory.Lipping out an 8-foot putt atNo 18 that would have won thematch, “You've still got moregolf to play so you can't be toodown on yourself,” she said.

Keeling bounced back tobirdie sudden death playoffhole No. 1, a par 5 — nailing a5-foot putt. “I was able to cut acorner [dogleg hole] and geton in two,” Keeling said.

Keeling defeated CaroleHornstra, her final round cad-die, 8 & 7, in the openinground July 15.

Other results: ChampionshipConsolation Flight, LindaTrotter defeated Julie Natalein 20 holes.

First Flight Consolation,Jamie Knowling beat KayeDoty 5 & 4. Second FlightConsolation, Betty Dick defeat-ed Grace Mutz 5 & 3.

Stingray attack

Sugarwood swim team endsperfect as League 3 champs

Alan Sloan

Emily Haynes, 7, swims a leg for Sugarwood Stingrays in the 7-and-under medley relay during a meet against Holston Hills,Thursday evening, July 17, at Sugarwood pool.


In their home pool, SugarwoodStingrays capped off a specialLeague 3 season (GreaterKnoxville Area InterclubSwimming Association) Thursdayevening, July 17.

Finishing a perfect season at5-0 Thursday after “our biggestwin of the season” by defeatingHolston Hills, Sugarwood lockedup the program's first leaguecrown “in 10 years,” first-yearhead coach Ben Whiteside said.

One-hundred-seventy swim-mers ages 5 to 18 have con-tributed to the Stingrays' suc-cess. “Everything we've beenworking on all summer is reallycoming together,” saidWhiteside, also praising thecoaching of assistants WillTrusler and Brianne Geist.

Despite several years coachingin GKAISA, “I truly believe thatthis is the best team to be a partof in Knoxville [area],”Whiteside said. “It's about hav-ing fun, it's about relationshipsand it's about improving, not just

as swimmers but as people, in afun atmosphere.

“Sugarwood understands that,”Whiteside added, praising teampresident Chet Carbaugh plus“all the officials and parents andswimmers. They have their prior-ities straight, in my opinion. …The fact that we ended up goingundefeated this season is justicing on the cake.”

Five “senior” swimmers finish-ing their final year of eligibility“have really stepped up and ledthe team,” Whiteside said of TreyBarrett, Madison Gump, EricaHeilbronn, Emma Walker andAaron Benorgen. “Not just interms of cheers and helping withpractice and at meets, but alsoin terms of setting a good exam-ple of character for the youngerswimmers,” he added.

Looking ahead to 2014GKAISA Championship SwimMeet this weekend in TheUniversity of Tennessee’s AllanJones Intercollegiate AquaticCenter, “I expect big things fromSugarwood at City Meet,”Whiteside said. “We are taking 92swimmers.”

3 Minute Magic Carwash coming to Farragut

Tammy Cheek

Jim Rooney, president of 3 Minute Magic Carwash, and Teri Rooney, co-owner, are taking a for-mer car wash site and making it their own: a new 3 Minute location, 11133 Kingston Pike inFarragut, which is expected to open after Christmas.

■ TAMMY [email protected]

A new 3 Minute MagicCarwash, 11133 Kingston Pike inFarragut, is expected to openafter Christmas.

“We’re excited to bring it to theFarragut area,” Jim Rooney, 3Minute president, said.

“It’s going to take approxi-mately 120 days once we startconstruction,” Rooney added.“Fortunately, we’ve had a lot ofsupport from the town ofFarragut and the Town leaders.”

The new site “will include7,000 square feet,” Rooney said.It will have 13 free vacuum stallsand 14 full-service spaces and adetail shop.

The Farragut site will be 3Minute Magic Carwash’s fourthlocation. The other sites are 300Simmons Road off Lovell Road;956 Highway 321 North, LenoirCity; and 4725 N. Broadway St.,Fountain City.

“The Farragut car wash willprobably be the coolest we’veever built,” Rooney said.

“We’ve been dying to get afacility open in Farragut foryears,” he said.

With the Farragut site, Rooney

said they changed their approachfrom the other sites and addedflexible service, which gives cus-tomers the option of choosingjust the exterior car washing orthe exterior and interior clean-ing.

“Full service basically isthought of as us going inside yourvehicle and cleaning it out foryou,” he said. “The customerexits the vehicle and waits in anice, modern, comfortable lobby,and then we take care of the restof the vehicle for you in eightminutes or less.

“So, Farragut is going to be thefirst facility in our organization,as well as the first facility in thegreater Knoxville market, to offerflexible service,” he said.

The car washing business wasa natural extension of NationalDetailers Incorporated Group, amobile detailing businessRooney and his wife, Teri, formedin 1997.

“Teri and I started back in1997 in Farragut in our livingroom in Sugarwood.” Rooneysaid. Before that, Rooney spent12 years as a district managerwith Chrysler Corporation.

“We had an idea and two yearslater we realized it was going to

work, so we looked into officeshere in this complex and 17 yearslater, we’re still doing it.”

Today, NDI Group is one of thelargest mobile detailing compa-nies at every new auto show all

across the United States andCanada, Rooney said.

Beginning July 22, Rooney tookon an additional role as presidentof the Southeastern Car WashAssociation, which incorporates

11 states, 16 facilities. For more information about 3

Farragut Primary School kindergartner Brixan Schlomer, center, receives a medal for perfectattendance. With him are, from left teacher, Karen Trent; parents, Jennifer and Brian Schlomer;school nurse, Connie Williams; and Gina Byrd, principal.

■ TAMMY CHEEK [email protected]

The perseverance of FarragutPrimary School kindergartnerBrixan Schlomer attracted theadmiration ofhis teacher,Karen Trent,and schoolnurse, ConnieWilliams, sothey decidedto recognizehis effortswith a medalfor perfectattendance Wednesday, May 21.

His attendance, they thought,was extraordinary because hedeals with juvenile diabetes.

“We just wanted to recognizehim because it’s hard to have per-fect attendance for just a healthychild, much less a child with juve-nile diabetes,” Trent said. “He’s atalented, athletic, smart, enjoy-able child to be around and apleasure to have him in class.”

“We’re very proud of his gettingperfect attendance,” Williams, alicensed practical nurse, said. “Itmeans a lot that Mrs. Trent want-ed him to be recognized.

“He has dealt with the diabetesin the most positive way he can,and he has let nothing hold him

It may be July, but the Junebug beetle is not afraid to contin-ue buzzing around Town.

The green June beetlemakes its annu-al appearanceeach year in corre-spondence with thetemperature, day len-gth and season. Theprime time forthem in this area isJune, or, in this case,their swarming beginsin June. It is now mid-July and the June bugscontinue to hangout, but not toworry — they only last for aboutfour weeks and are harmless tohumans.

“It’s that time of year where

they do start to come out theyonly are around maybe fourweeks they are very, veryseasonal,” Cheri Coldwate fromHeritage Termite and Pest Ser-vice, Inc. said.

“They are just annoy-ing. You do not reallywant them around and

they do not destroythings,” she added.

Dr. Frank A. Hale,a professor of ento-mology at The

University of Tenne-ssee, has seen a

his career.“They have a one-year life cycle

2B • FARRAGUTPRESS THURSDAY, JULY 24, 2014

Have you ever wanted to tellanother adult to “grow up?” It’sinteresting to watch an adult actlike a child, but it’s not as easy tosee immature behavior crop up inourselves. I think we all carryremnants of our childhood intoadulthood and studying thoseremnantsin the labof my ownlife hasbeen ahoot forme.

July 4,2 0 1 4m a r k st w e l v eyears sinceI metNelly. She’smy innerchild andc o n s t a n tcompanion, and when a fewhours go by and I haven’t heardfrom her, I do as any motherwould do; I check up on her.

I might ask myself, “Is some-thing bothering you little girl?You don’t seem very happy rightnow.” If I’m still and listen, I’llget an answer that would haveremained unexpressed had I notquestioned myself.

When children are ignored,whether they are real or within,they want attention and they willget it.)

Nelly needs adult guidance andbefore that first meeting, she wasfree to run the show. I’ve writtena lot about our relationship in mybook, The Joy of Being Disor-ganized. I believe each of us hasan inner child whether we knowit or not. Take any chronic prob-lem in your life, whether you’reoverweight, in debt or your houseis full of clutter, and ask yourself,“How old have I been actingwhen it comes to (you fill in theblank)? Bingo! It’s time to growup.

Your inner child is not all bad.I’ve discovered over the 12 yearsthat it’s Nelly that keeps meyoung, frisky, optimistic andlighthearted, but when ignored

she will get my attention in waysthat tend to sabotage my goodintentions.

We all Need AttentionI remember one year at a fami-

ly, Thanksgiving feast, the adultswere chatting away about adultthings and, when there was a lullin the conversation, our grandsonTanner (who was five at thetime) said, “Let’s talk about menow.” We all laughed and focusedour attention on him. He was sohappy to get to talk about Tanner!His innocent desire to be part ofthe party was stunning to me.

Before I met Nelly I was likeTanner needing attention, only Iwas 59. I’d be in a conversationwith someone and while he orshe was talking, I’d be planningwhat I was going to tell andsometimes not even hearing whatthe person talking said. I havesince learned that when I payattention to Nelly, I don’t needattention from others.

I love to meet a new personand see how much I can learnwithout him or her learning any-thing about me. It’s fun to con-duct sort of an untelevised talkshow in which I’m the interview-er with a guest on my show. I’msure you’ve had one-way conver-sations like that.

When you understand that theneed to tell someone about your-self is no more than a need forattention, you can start rightaway to give yourself attention bybeing kind and compassionate toYOU. Be your own best friend andthe next time you’re in a two-wayconversation, you’ll really be ableto listen to the other person.

A Nasty EmailI received a nasty email from

an angry woman (actually I thinkher inner child wrote it).

“Inner child, inner schmild!!! Idon’t get this inner child thing!!!I don’t have time to do justice tomy real kids let alone some fanta-sy inner kid in me!!! What if Idon’t have an inner child? Whydo I care anyway? Aren’t you justblaming your bad behavior onsomebody else when you say yourinner child made you do it? The

whole thing sounds a little psy-chitzo to me!!!” Jessica

It’s very seldom I receivecranky emails like Jessica’s, butwhen I do, Nelly begs to answerthem. I usually don’t let her,because here’s what she’d havesaid to this woman, and thenwe’d be in trouble for her child-ish outburst:

“How does it feel to use up yourallotment of exclamation marksfor the month? Just shut the fussup and stop with the exclamationmarks!!!!!!!” Nelly

When I received the aboveemail, Nelly must have been nap-ping, because all that came to mymind was how much my life haschanged since I met her. By theway, I don’t “blame” Nelly forinappropriate behavior, like say Ibought a pair of shoes I reallydon’t need and it wasn’t in mybudget. I address the “behavior”

as inappropriate and I get to thesource of the behavior which isusually that of a child. “Nelly, I’msorry I went shopping when Ineeded a nap and hadn’t eatenlunch. We need to take the shoesback and in the future I’ll bestricter with our eating and rest-ing schedule before we go to themall.”

On the Fourth of July, Nellyand I will be celebrating morethan the freedom our beautifulAmerica has for its citizens. Withevery glittering light in the nightsky, I’ll be commemorating ourrelationship. It has been the best12 years of my life.

to do and the fact that he is fam-ily makes it even better.

“I believe the sport of rodeobrings families together and con-tinues to give us the opportunityto share special times with fami-ly,” he said. “This is what sportsare all about.”

“I love the lifestyle, being aro-und the horses, cows and stuff,”Carson said. Last year, he waspart of Tennessee High SchoolRodeo Association; but he said,all the rodeos were west ofNashville, and he wanted to com-pete closer to home.

While he has never ridden abull, the boy said that was on histo-do list.

Farmer said he has not sus-tained any serious injuries but hehad fractured his hand once whileroping calves last year. He said themajority of injuries he sustains are“a bunch of rope burns.”

Self-defense is a one of manylife skills that most think they will never need, but when 19-year-old Gregory Crenshaw allegedlyattempted kidnapping a Pell-issippi State Community Collegestudent Thursday, June 19, sheknew how to best protect herself.

But how prepared are otherWest Knox Country residents ifthis were to happen again?

Master Seong J. Eun, owner ofEun’s Martial Arts Center, 11110Kingston Pike (Aspen Square),has a solution to filling the gaps inknowledge of self-defense. Heoffers an adult self-defense classthree times per week, teachingstudents the importance of pro-tecting themselves in the rarechance someone attacks.

“Of course we have a self-defense class … our program isthe physical-mental training, sofor example, we have an excellentwomen’s self-defense class. First,it is good exercise, and they canlearn specialized self-defense anddefend themselves,” Eun said.

It is never too late or too earlyto take a self-defense course atEun’s Martial Arts Center, as anygiven class could have studentsranging from 10 to 65-years-old.His 26 years spent in the samelocation has shown him that thesport is beneficial for anyone whogives it a chance.

“Well, once again, I can say any

How prepared are you


Farragut sisters Callie Rather,21, and Sarah Rather, 18, took asecond trip to Malawi, Africa, inJune to visit the orphanage theirfamily co-funds.

The Harvest Home, as theRather family likes to call it, is aproduct of several families’desires to help orphaned childrenin Malawi. Callie and Sarah trav-eled with their parents last yearfor one week to help and visit, butdecided to revisit without themthis year for three weeks.

“It was different it was definite-ly harder just kind of having to [gowithout them]. It’s a very relaxedkind of community, not really a lotof initiative I guess, so having ourparents [last year] gave us some-

thing to kind of look to, so we kindof had to take care of ourselvesand we planned our own days andkind of fended for ourselves,”Callie said.

“It was definitely a lot harderand different, but I’m glad we didit,” she added.

The sister duo traveled downwith family friends to help pre-pare the fourth cottage-home atthe orphanage. The idea is to putabout 12 children in each homewith a mother and father figure,implementing a family atmos-phere to those who did not haveany.

“It’s really hard to adopt out ofMalawi, so the orphans don’t real-ly have anywhere to go but bigorphanages, and we really believe

parent, if they have a daughter orson, give to them learning martialarts,” Eun said.

“I can say it is [the] best gift,because any exercise, any sport isfine, especially martial arts, is veryimportant this time,” he added.

Even his 15-year-old daughterSarah, a Farragut High School stu-dent, is enrolled in a course.

“For my daughter it is veryimportant learning martial arts.Then if they go to college, theycan defend themselves,” Eun said.

The Palmer family is a group ofnewer students to the MartialArts Center, but they did not signup with self-defense in mind.

“We honestly signed up for self-defense when we were watching

“The Karate Kid,” because wethought it was cool. Is self-defense a neat thing? Yes. Havewe ever conceived the idea thatwe would need it? No,” KenPalmer said.

Enrollment is available at anypoint for Master Eun’s self-defense classes, Taekwondo,Hapkido and Jujitsu classes. Hisexperience as a former KoreanMarine, former The University ofTennessee men’s swimming teamspecial trainer, and current WorldTaekwondo Federation memberensures specialty training for any-one who enrolls.

“I love watching the highschoolers take the leadership andleading these girls and beingolder mentors to them,” Baugh-man said.

“I really like seeing the rela-tionships that are built andwatching the little girls get reallyexcited about cheerleading theway I know my girls are excitedabout it … It’s a great way for thehigh school to have a presence inthe community,” Townley added.

As for the high schoolers, theyjust enjoy watching the youngergirls learn to do the things theyspend so many hours per weekpracticing.

Gabrielle Fewell, a pentathlon, hurdles and relay specialist withHardin Valley Academy Lady Hawks track and field team (Classof 2014), signed with Carson-Newman University during a briefceremony June 24 at Johnny Long Training Academy off HardinValley Road. Pictured alongside Fewell are her parents, Hal andRebecca Fewell. Siblings, from left, are Gidon, Geronimo, Goldaand Gershona. Standing are Johnny Long, academy owner andnamesake, left, and Joey Maxberry, Fewell’s boyfriend and a C-N rising sophomore football player.

Fewell signsin them having a family aspect totheir lives and a mother and afather, so we built these cot-tages,” Rather said.

Their time spent in Malawiincluded painting murals androoms in the new cottage and“loving on the kids most of thetime.”

The family-like atmosphereprovides both a support systemfor the children and a Christian-centered environment, as thechildren memorize a Bible verseabout every three weeks, accord-ing to Rather.

The sisters, Callie a rising sen-ior and Sarah a rising freshmanat The University of Tennessee,are now in their second year ofgiving up a portion of their sum-mer vacation to visit the commu-nity their family helped establishin Malawi.

“We stayed in a wooden house,you could say, and we sleep onmattresses on the floor with mos-quito nets over us. We don’t real-ly have electricity that much.There’s no running water, so it’sdefinitely different,” she said.

“Since they don’t get adoptedout of there, it’s the same kids[as last year]. We know them,we’ve kept in contact with theirparents and families over email, Ihear from them every couple ofweeks, we email back and forth,so it’s really not just random peo-ple we are going to see — it’schildren that we know and theyknow us and that remember usand we have relationships witheach mom, dad and kid there.”

“I assume we will go backevery year forever,” she added.

Callie and Sarah Rather arethe daughters of Susan and LytleRather, a Town businessman, andsisters of Bamber Rather, 16.

fun to watch them learn,” HannahAlison, FHS cheerleader, said.

Darby Faulkner is one of severalFHS cheerleaders who attendedJunior Cheer Camp as an elemen-tary schooler, a memory that aidedher decision in trying out from theteam.

“I loved [Junior Cheer Camp].It is really fun [to be a FHS cheer-leader], because I looked up to thecheerleaders so much when I waslittle, so I love how they look to us.It is really cool,” Faulkner said.

Katelyn Bruce, 8, is in the midstof her fourth year of cheerleadingand has a simple reason of whythis camp is a favorite.

“We just have so much fun,because the high school cheersare so fun,” Katelyn said.

Alison Stigall, 8, enjoys the

attention and mentoring thecheerleaders give while at camp.

“They are always so fun, and Iget to jump on their back. They area big part of cheer, and it’s justreally fun to play with someonewho is older than me,” Stigall said.

The excitement and positivefeedback from the campers isexactly why Baughman andTownley continue the tradition ofthe annual camp.

“[We continue planning it] for alegacy of the high schoolers pass-ing it down to the younger kids.Some of our high schoolers wentto junior cheer camp when theywere that age, so it carries on thattradition. It’s also a great fundrais-er for us and builds relationships… when we see these girls at thefootball games in the fall — it’sjust that connection they have,”Baughman said.

“As they dig around, they canactually separate the roots fromthe soil, and sometimes theplants will dry out because of thedigging of this type pest,” headded.

The June bug beetles congre-

gate in sunny and well-fertilizedareas, from the sunny spot of alawn to a flowerbed full ofmulch. Some of their favoriteplaces to eat include grass roots,already-damaged fruit and eventurf grass, but there is typicallylittle harm.

“They feed some on primarilygrass roots, but they can oftendig up plants if there is a highenough density of them, so thereis really not that much damage,”

Hale said.Some people will call their

local pest controls, such asHeritage, to find out how to getrid of them, but there is notmuch to be done.

“People can get rid of them justby spraying them with water orvacuuming them up … they arejust annoying,” Coldwate said.

If they start to attack some produce or plants, Hale has a fewrecommendations.
