Alderman thinking big
Meyer proposes national volleyball event, wants ‘reasonable tourism’
■ MICHELLE HOLLENHEAD [email protected]
Saying he will ask colleagues on Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen to transfer $15,000 budgeted in 2020 for the Knoxville Open, which has moved elsewhere in Knox County, Alderman Scott Meyer wants to use that money to fund a national volley-ball tournament in Farragut.
“I think this would be a great pilot proj-ect,” which could ultimately position the Town as an amateur sports destination, he added while proposing the idea before the Town’s Tourism/Visitor Advisory Commit-tee Tuesday, Nov. 19.
In fact, the proposed Admiral Classic National Grass and Beach Volleyball Tour-nament is tentatively scheduled Aug. 7-9, 2020, at Mayor Bob Leonard Park, said
Chris Hames, six-time state champion Webb School of Knoxville volleyball head coach and owner/operator of K2 Volleyball Club. She would coordinate the tournament.
Long-term solutionsTo fund similar ventures long-term,
Meyer said he was “so excited to be able to share ... my idea for how we could use some of our Hotel Occupancy Tax in relation to sports tourism,” though such a tax already has been shot down by BOMA three times since 2013.
He said he “would support ‘reasonable tourism,’” such as the national volleyball tournament would draw in his view, which Meyer defined as events that would “in-crease Farragut (hotel) occupancy rates” because increased occupancy rates in-crease sales taxes generated from tourists during their stay in Farragut.
Meyer summarized “types” of tourism — based in part on an October presentation by John Whisenant, director of tourism for the Tennessee Hospitality and Tourism,

KCSOreports
■ MICHELLE HOLLENHEAD [email protected]
Following several months of revisions by developer Travis Fuller, a preliminary plat for Grigsby Park Phase 1 was approved by Farragut Municipal Planning Commission Thursday, Nov. 21.
The 17-unit development will be located off Grigsby Chapel Road, across from Wyndam Hall subdivision, and offer attached single-family homes.
Fuller has been working with Town officials and neighboring West-side Unitarian Universalist Church on the plans, as both have asked he protect wildlife and trees.
Initial plans, which called for back entrance alleyways to increase curb appeal, were scrapped in favor of front entrance garage plans eliminating the planned secondary roadway.
“After reviewing this at the Staff/Developer meeting on Oct. 1, it was determined that, for practical reasons and to lessen the area of distur-bance, the alleys would be removed,” stated a report from Mark Shipley, Town Community Development director. “The property is topographi-cally challenged for alleys and it was thought that residents would have a more useable and enjoyable backyard if the alleys were removed.”
Additionally, Fuller has been working to address a problem that oc-curred several months ago, when a handful of trees were removed dur-ing the land disturbance permit process, and the contractor also ac-cidentally crossed the Town’s walking trail with a bobcat to access the property and damaged a small section of trail.
Damage also occurred to a portion of WUUC’s property. In a written commentary, church member Gerald Thornton thanked
Fuller for modifying the plan, and asked for consideration of which trees might be replaced and what species might be replacing them.
At the FMPC meeting, Thornton further addressed the issues, noting he was “glad to hear (Fuller) had retained an arborist to help assess the property.”
Fuller, who also was at the meeting, said he was still waiting to hear back from Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation concerning the land disturbance.
He also invited Thornton to attend his upcoming meeting with the arborist.
Wyndham Hall resident Ron Smith addressed the FMPC about the traffic that would likely increase with this project — an issue he had brought up in previous meetings.
“There is already a speeding issue on Grigsby Chapel,” he said. “Two months ago I requested a comprehensive road improvement study on short-, middle- and long-term solutions to the traffic problems on that road.”
Smith said in the short term he would suggest stop signs “at strategic locations on Grigsby Chapel Road,” and possibly “flashing yellow lights near Fretz Road.
“Something needs to be done about the traffic.”
who spoke before the Board — and concluded only tourism from business travelers and amateur sports events meet his definition of “reasonable tourism.”
“We don’t have the attractions, we don’t have a beach, and when people come to visit family they stay with their hosts,” he added.
Meyer also said he is “not in-terested” in implementing a Ho-tel Occupancy tax if the moneys “will not be spent on reasonable tourism.”
During the crux of his propos-al, Meyer cited amateur sports financial data from HBO Sports and Time magazine, which re-ported $15.3 billion is spent an-nually on amateur sports in the United States, and “is increasing 20 percent every year.”
He added such “reasonable

tourism” in Farragut would in-crease sales taxes to “offset” the 10 percent decrease in Town rev-enue resulting from the Hall Tax termination starting Jan. 1, 2021.
He also noted Town land is 80 percent built out, and Town revenues from building permits, which makes up 4 percent of its revenues, eventually will de-crease as the undeveloped land is “built out.”
Meyer noted his own pas-sion for volleyball, as both of his daughters play volleyball for Con-cord Christian School and K2.
He and Hames will be present-ing their proposal again during a BOMA workshop Thursday, Dec. 12. Meyer’s $15,000 transfer pro-posal is an agenda item for the BOMA meeting immediately fol-lowing the workshop.
“I would love to see us build a sports complex, but that is a dis-cussion for another day,” he said.

Knoxville/Farragut area organizations are jumping on the national “Giving Tues-day” bandwagon with “Big Give Knox,” offer-ing an opportunity to give online Tuesday, Dec. 3, to local non-profits to kick off this holiday season.
More than 100 organizations are partner-ing with “Big Give Knox” on its website, www.biggiveknox.org/, including Knoxville Habi-tat for Humanity, Knoxville-Knox County Mobile Meals, Knox Heritage, Make-a-Wish East Tennessee, Remote Area Medical, Boys
and Girls Clubs, March of Dimes, Random Acts of Flowers, Knox Area Rescue Min-istries, Humane Society of the Tennessee Valley Alzheimer’s Association and Emerald Youth Foundation — just to name a few.
An anonymous donor is pledging up to $50,000 in matching donations, and 18 in-cash “prizes” are being offered by the United Way of Greater Knoxville in a variety of categories, such as $1,000 for the organi-zation that reaches $10,000 in online dona-tions first or $2,000 for the organization that receives the most online donations from 2 to 3 p.m.
Kim Frazier, co-founder of Hardin Valley
Planning Advocates among her many lead-ership and volunteer roles, said the Knox County Rescue Squad (which her husband, Russ Frazier, leads), Hardin Valley Academy Foundation (which the couple helped found earlier this year), Paws & Badges and Restoration House are among her person-ally supported charities.
“It’s easy,” she said. “Simply Google ‘Big
Give Knox,’ find your favorite charity andgive. The point is to give, and to give big.”
“Giving Tuesday” was founded in 2012 by New York City’s 92nd Street Y and the United Nations “as a response to commercialization and consumerism in the post-Thanksgiving season (Black Friday and Cyber Monday),”according to the organization’s website.
Instead, it was hoped to begin an annualinternational day of charitable giving — anidea catching fire on social media that has expanded in the years since. More than $400million was pledged last year, funds which were assisted in part by Facebook and PayPal matching pledges.
To honor ‘Giving Tuesday,’ ‘Big Give Knox’ online push Dec. 3
“I think there may be some oth-er options,” FMPC commissioner Noah Myers said. “Maybe we can engage some experts to come up with some solutions, but I don’t want to hold up this project.”
“We are not against the project but are against ... adding develop-ments that bring more traffic to Grigsby Chapel Road without look-
ing at how to improve it,” Smith said.
“We have a lot of HOAs willing to par t i c ipa te in some sort of study, but we need your help. Some-thing’s got to be done,” he added.

Although I am still working, I have had to ask my doctor for a different prescription because of costs. My wife and I are self-employed and have to pay for our own health insurance.
The insurance we do have is expensive and
has high deductibles. Thus, we pay for our re-quired prescriptions out of our own pocket.
We would like to retire in a couple of years, but it is looking like we both will have to work until we are 70 just to afford to live.
On top of that, we do not know if we might have
more prescriptions required for us to survive. We need to continue the fight to lower pre-
scription costs now!

• With the new boom in build-ing, buyers of newly built homesneed to be aware of the four-year statute on builders. If the hom-eowner has a serious issue that hasn’t been resolved or evendiscovered within four years youare out of luck. Neither the stateContractors Licensing Board northe state Dept. of Consumer Af-fairs will help you. Also, writingto your governor and state legis-lators will not result in any ac-tion. It will become a hefty legalmatter at your expense where you will have to prove fraud and even gross negligence in Tennessee.... Even new construction needs inspection, and the better routewould be to hire a structural en-gineer that has home inspection services. Do not think that Knox County building inspections will be your saving grace. Manyhomes have received Certificatesof Occupancy with major issues, even after being sited on unre-solved violations.
• I enjoyed watching my first Veterans Day Parade downtown(recently). However, I was dis-appointed to see that one group participating in the parade wasa partisan political party. I thinkVeterans Day and the Fourth of July should be free of partisanpolitics. Especially on these two days, we can and should rejoice inour joint American Heritage andhonoring service men and women who sacrificed without regard topolitical affiliation. I would liketo suggest that the Farragut lead-ers of the wonderful 4th of July Parade this year have a nonparti-san parade in 2020.
As with these Presstalks,please remember to participate without use of vulgar language.

Kings Gate subdivision resident Mike Mitchell, standing, voiced his concerns during a community meeting in Farragut High School Commons Tuesday night, Nov. 19. Mitchell said the closing of Virtue Road would coincide with work along Concord Road, creat-ing an undue traffic burden in his subdivision.
with work on Concord Road and stressed that could mean more people detouring through Kings Gate subdivision and infring-ing on those residents. Mitchell urged Town officials to recon-sider the closing of Virtue Road during the Concord Road con-struction.
Farragut Primary School teacher Melinda Webster asked Town officials to consider build-ing a community pool.
Farragut Vice Mayor Louise Povlin warned, however, pur-chasing such an amenity would probably require a property tax.
A Farragut Intermediate School guidance counselor urged the officials to reconsider the current counselor-student ratio, expressing a need for more guid-ance counselors in the schools.
Intersection developmentsA plus for the Town, Povlin
said, is the development of the former Phillips 66 convenience store location on the corner of Kingston Pike and North Camp-bell Station Road.
“I took a picture (of the demo-lition). I almost cried,” said Pov-lin, who presided over the meet-ing with with Susan Horn, chair of Knox County Board of Educa-tion representing the 5th District (including Farragut) and 5th Dis-trict Knox County Commissioner John Schoonmaker.
“The dead carcass is gone.”However, “We’re going to get a
nice asset for this Town … It’s going to be a novel idea of food trucks coming in, and hopefully some type of beer garden thing,” she said.
Across the street at Campbell Station Inn, Povlin said the Town finally is “pushing dirt on our plaza. That will be a very usable space.
“We’re also seeing (improve-ments) to Ingles. Oh, my good-ness, is that not wonderful?,” she added.
“A lot of wonderful things are
happening in Town, in part be-cause the economy is doing so well.”
County roads near FarragutSchoonmaker addressed road
projects in southwest Knox County, which include Canton Hollow Road across from Costco, which is scheduled to begin in June 2020.
“It’s a $7 million project,” he said. “Some of you may be aware that seven years ago, that was rat-ed the worst road in Knox County based on traffic accidents.
“So, county officials deter-mined they needed to fix that 2-mile stretch of the road,” Schoonmaker added.
“We’ve had to wait for three budget cycles to be able to ap-propriate enough money to do this project. It will take about a year-and-a-half to complete.”
Commissioners also are look-ing at completing smaller safety-related projects, such as filling a drainage ditch at the Concord Road-Northshore Drive round-about.
“The next thing we’re going to do is a turn lane into The Cove at Concord Park,” he said.
Teachers’ raise, new schoolOn the education front, Horn
said the county is providing a 4 percent raise to its teachers this school year.
“That’s the largest single per-centage raise that we’ve been able to do in over 10 years,” Horn said. “We were really happy to be able to accomplish that.”
Also, as part of the five-year capital plan put in place last
year, the county plans to build a new school, Northwest Elemen-tary, which could help alleviate population issues in six to eight schools, including Hardin Valley Elementary, which is overcrowd-ed.
“Currently, we are looking for property … that school wouldn’t open until 2022,” Horn said. “We’ll have to do rezoning in those ar-eas. (Northwest) will pool from several elementary schools.
Praise for new centerOn another note, Schoonmak-
er and Povlin praised the part-nership between the Town and County to make possible the Far-ragut Community Center/West Knox County Senior Center.
“It’s been one of those deals where partnership with the Town of Farragut and Knox County adds a great something to the commu-nity that’s going to be cherished for years to come,” Schoonmaker said. “They did a fantastic job,” adding the target date to open is Jan. 16, 2020.
Povlin said she has been ad-vocating for a community center for a long time. “We’re working through what the spaces are go-ing to be used for and trying to work through some of the policy documents,” she said.
Also attending were Farragut Mayor Ron Williams, Aldermen Ron Pinchok and Scott Meyer and Town administrator David Smoak.

Preparing to go through a third major renovation on his family popular business on the extreme western end of Farragut, Sam Taylor might be expected to share bad memories of his dealings with Town leaders over the years — given Farra-gut’s stereotype of “unfriendly to businesses and developers.”
However, this patriarch of Dixie Lee Wines & Liquors, Inc. didn’t have any to share.
Instead, “I think Farragut is a wonderful place to live,” said Taylor, a retired chief financial officer/accountant with a large drug company, which led to his co-ownership of Dixie Lee W & L beginning in July 1988.
“They’re a little bit tough sometimes on things we might think are trivial. But they aren’t trivial when you put it all in one big ball so to speak,” added Tay-lor, who has transferred co-own-ership to his children — with his wife, Linda Taylor, having been co-owner from 2000 to 2018 — at the 13044 Kingston Pike store. “That just makes a better community.
“We have good schools here, good streets, sidewalks — and I find that people in Town Hall are very nice and helpful when you need them to be.
“I wouldn’t live anywhere else.”
Of family, Town revenuesThe Taylors have made DLWL
a true Farragut family business since early in the new millenni-um.
The youngest of Sam and Lin-da‘s four children — all of whom are working, or have worked, in the business — Andy Taylor shares what he said “doesn’t get talked about enough with respect to our store and Camp-bell Station (Wine & Spirits)” concerning Town of Farragut revenues.
“In the liquor business before a single bottle is ever sold, every bottle that is purchased from a distributor is taxed at a 5-percent tax rate. That money doesn’t simply go generally to the state — that goes directly to
the Town of Farragut,” said Andy, a former attorney and DLWL co-owner who also has been a purchaser with business since coming on board in 2013.
“That’s a huge, huge revenue source for them because this is before we even pay sales tax,” he added. “There is no other busi-ness enterprise that I am aware of that has that occur.
“That’s a compelling reason to ‘Shop Farragut’” in terms of wine and liquor purchases within Town limits.
Sam’s new ventureSam, a Blount County native,
tells the story of how his original profession, as chief financial offi-cer (accountant duties included) with Albers Drug Company for decades, led to his partnership in DLWL.
“Carl Montgomery, my origi-nal (Dixie Lee W & L) partner, he and I both went to St. John Neumann Catholic Church,” said Sam, who later became president of a subsidiary company of Albers before retiring from that side of his professional career in 1999.
“We both knew each other quite well; we both lived in Vil-lage Green (the Taylors since the late 1960’s and we were neigh-bors,” he added.
With Montgomery already a part owner of what is now Dixie Lee W & L “with some girls,” Sam said, “He called me one night and asked me if I could do an analysis on their financial statements and tell him what his share was worth.”
Looking at the business’ financial statement, “I looked at it and I said, ‘this is a cash cow,’” Sam said.
Knowing Montgomery’s part-nership with “the girls” likely was coming to an end, “… I said, ‘Carl, what about if you and I buy this?’” he added.
Having “played tennis every week with the owner of a bank, and I also played tennis with his president,” Sam put Montgom-ery’s concerns aside about money to purchase Sam’s share.
Getting the loan, “We decided we’d be partners,” he said.

Blount County native Sam Taylor, who brought his family into the wine and
liquor business in July 1988, has seen Dixie Lee Wines & Liquors, Inc. expand into a true family business during more than 30 years.
While wife, Linda Taylor, became his co-owner in 2000, they have stepped aside — Lin-da most recently in 2018 — to let three of their four children claim ownership.
Co-owner Sam Taylor III (actually referred to as Sam “Junior”), who has been with DLWL as a purchaser since 2002, will be retiring early in 2020.
Co-owner Ellen Taylor Jones, who also takes care of finan-cial/office matters, “started just after Sam Junior,” said youngest sibling, Andy Taylor, a former attorney and co-owner who also has been a purchaser with DLWL since coming on board in 2013.
Melanie Taylor Brown worked at DLWL “for more than 10 years,” Andy said, before leaving the business.
A third generation is contributing. Andrew Forton, Melanie’s son, currently is a University of Tennessee student who works part-time as a clerk at DLWL.
Renovation historyWith the DLWL building
owned by the Mose Waller family, its current location was opened on Labor Day 1991, Andy said.
The business was relocated a few hundred feet east. “The old building, that building used to sit basically in the middle of where Watt Road extension is now,” he added.
A 3,000-square foot east wing expansion, to keep up with the “revamped beer laws,” came in 2015 according to Andy, resulted in “adding a massive beer cave and testing room, and office and bathroom” that year, he said.
Expected to begin sometime early next year will be yet another renovation, according to Andy.
“Basically, what (the Town) is going to do is close the west entrance of our business off,
which is the one right next to Little Joe’s (Pizza),” he added. “… We’re going to have a road that is going to literally wrap around the back of the building and it’s going to open up on the north side of Watt Road and really, I think, make it easier for people, ultimately, to get in and out.”

started out at DLWL, “Carl managed the everyday operation of the store … the hands-on management,” he said. “One thing I made sure of: we had our responsibilities separated.”
Including ownership, DLWL currently has 10 employees, Andy said.
In the early years, “The biggest challenge was I had to do my (DLWL) work mainly on week-
ends because I was busy through the week with my (drug compa-ny) job,” Taylor said.
However, “We were very suc-cessful,” he added.
Partners with Montgomery for more than 10 years, Sam’s first partner sold his share and “retired to Florida.”
Store historyTracing back the beginning
of Dixie Lee Wines & Liquors,
Inc. to “at least 1986” according to Andy, the original owner of the first DLWL “lived in Village Green, and he’s an engineer by profession,” Sam said without he or Andy being able to remember the owner’s name. “This was just an investment for him. And he got transferred to Atlanta on his job, so he had good reason to get rid of it.”

“Our goal is for you to come here, relax and enjoy yourself,” Varney said. “This is as luxuri-ous as any place you will find. We have people who come from Atlanta, and many others
from a two- or three-hour-radius, because they have found that we are one of the nicest and best places anywhere.”
The company also is dedicated to cutting edge state-of-the art technology, such as its new Cool Tone body sculpting machine.
“It is the only one in Knoxville,” Varney said. “It is helpful for muscle weakness, body sculpting and body toning ... Clients can see significant muscle tone improvements in a matter of 3-4 weeks.”

Elder’s Ace Hardware — which is marking a half-century in business this year — has one more reason to celebrate with the opening of its newest Knoxville-area store in Hardin Valley.
While some aspects are still being completed, such as the outdoor and greenhouse areas, store manager Tan-ner Robinson and his team launched the “soft opening” of the new 17,000-square foot business, 10009 Hardin Valley Road, Friday, Nov. 22.
Elder’s Ace Hardware Hardin Valley brings all the equipment, interior and exterior products and company services Ace customers have come to depend on down through the years, as well as a brand-new concept in Elder’s Mercantile, a shop-within-a-shop offering count-less home and gift items.
“This has probably been the company’s largest in-vestment, especially with the new concept store,” said Robinson, who has been with the company nearly nine years, starting when he was in high school.
“We are really stepping it up and taking that idea to
the next level,” he added. “We are really excited for Hardin Valley residents to
see this store,” said John Rutter, Elder’s Ace director of Marketing and Innovation. “We will be offer-ing everything from hardware to home interior, gifts and clothing.
“It was also really important to us to be able to not only meet the needs of the local market, but also offer local brands and local products,” he added.
Rutter noted the store will carry Hardin Valley-based W.R. Case knives among its many local
offerings, along with Hiwassee Trading Company Socks out of Niota, Tennessee Toffee, Vienna Coffee, roasted locally in Maryville, local chocolate brands and even lo-cal BBQ seasonings and rubs.
Many of the specialty items are located in the Mer-cantile, under the direction of Mercantile manager

Fast starts fade for HVA hoops teams hosting ORHS in season openers■ ALAN SLOAN
HARDIN VALLEY — To open the season, both Hardin Valley Academy varsity basketball teams put up a good fight early on against a school with powerful programs.
In fact, Jennifer Galloway’s Lady Hawks led the defending No. 3 fin-isher statewide last season, Oak Ridge, 14-8 after one quarter.
But the Lady Wildcats’ transition game took over big time, and ORHS walked away with a 62-42 victory at
HVA Thursday night, Nov. 21. Meanwhile, Shane Chambers’
Hawks played Oak Ridge even, 17-17, after a quarter before Wildcat forward Jeremy Miller (game-high 26 points) and post J. Millaway (20 points) led the way toward the visi-tors building a 24-point lead.
Though HVA the cut the deficit to 12, the Hawks lost 80-64.
Boys overview“We had a great first quarter, it
was good energy both ways,” Cham-bers said. “But in the second quar-ter they started getting a little more
physical than we did, sort of got outside of our comfort zone. Sort of broke our back.
“I’m really proud of the effort we put in in the second half to cut it to within 12,” he added. “A lot of those guys (leading the way) were some of our younger guys, sophomores, mak-ing plays.
“I thought Tanner Grantham, our point guard, was sort of a catalyst for us,” the coach said about the junior, who led HVA with 14 points. “He hit some big shots there in the third quarter to get us back into it.
He’s really a pesky defender and gets his hands on the ball.”
Other double digits Hawks were senior Jack Niezgoda (12 points) and sophomore Hudson Stokes (11).
Girls overviewOverall, “We did well half-court
offensively, we did well half-court defensively,” Galloway said.
However, the transition game was “one thing that was exposed of us to-night, and that’s one of Oak Ridge’s strengths,” she added.
HVA leading scoring Malaka Grice, senior post, ended with 20.
“I felt like she showed her ver-satility … she’s learned to go bothways,” Galloway said. “She’s worked on extending her range a little bit,and I think she showed that.
“I was pleased how our pointguard handled the different thingsthrown at her,” the coach said about senior Allie Sexton. “She led ourteam the way it needed to be led.”
Evelyn Hess, junior post, scored11. “She’s provided some extra effortdefensively,” Galloway said. “And of-fensively we were able to move theball through her a little bit.”

Farragut High School’s boys basketball team had to endure a slight delay before its game Saturday morning, Nov. 23, because Mor-ristown West’s bus broke down on the way to Knox County.
But through two-plus quarters, it was the Ads who looked to be battling a case of the road legs.
“They were ready to play early and we were not,” FHS head coach Jon Higgins said after his team battled back to nab a 53-50 win over the Trojans in FHS’s Lynn E. Sexton Gymnasium. “They came out and they really smacked us in the mouth.
“It took us a while to adjust to things, but once we did I think we played pretty well,” he added.
Farragut (3-0) battled from behind most of the game and trailed 47-34 early in the third quarter — but closed out the frame on a 12-0 run, pulling to within 47-45 on a Kaleb Vanacker jumper at the buzzer.
The Ads turned up the defensive pressure in the fourth quarter and held the Trojans (1-1) scoreless over the game’s final 5:30.
Vanacker, a senior wing, also scored five points over the final eight minutes, and gave Farragut the lead for good at 52-50 lead when he knocked down a 3-pointer with 5:19 remaining. Carter Mayfield’s free throw with 30.8 seconds to go added to the winning margin.
Robby Geron, senior guard, led FHS with 14 points. Vanacker and Jake Wallace, junior post, scored 10 each.

A balanced offensive attack and a stifling defense were the ingre-dients for a winning recipe for Farragut High School girls basketball last weekend.
The Lady Admirals held a potent Grainger High School team at bay for much of their 52-37 victory in a Hall of Fame Game Saturday morning, Nov. 23, in FHS’s Lynn E. Sexton Gymnasium.
“We knew that this would be a challenge for us,” FHS veteran head coach Jason Mayfield said. “That’s a very good Grainger County team and that’s a state tournament team right there.
“Sure, they’re (Class) Double-A, but a state tournament team is a state tournament team, and that’s the kind of team that we want to be.”
The Lady Ads (3-0) darted out to an early 13-8 lead and extended their advantage to 32-19 by halftime.
Farragut held a big halftime lead despite hav-ing problems with their rebounding, according to Mayfield. “We struggled with that and we talked about it,” he said. “But we played good defense, we hustled and we had balanced scor-ing. This team hustles — and all these girls want to do is win.”
Sophomore guard Ace Strickland scored a game-high 18 points. Ju-nior Macy Barnes added 15. Senior Claire Wyatt finished with eight. Keeleigh Rogers had six and Ashlyn Sheridan scored three for the Lady Ads, who made six 3-pointers against the Lady Grizzlies (1-1).
“I’m really proud of my team for the way we hustled,” Strickland said. “We just want to win.”

Park Place of West Knoxville resident Chuck Clark, who has traveled around the world twice, still has wanderlust in his heart.
“I love traveling,” he said. “I think it’s fun.”Before moving into Park Place about 20 months
ago, Clark lived on the “Big Island” in Hawaii for 24 years. But he moved to Farragut to be closer to his daughter, Jennifer Dzermejko.
Canvas prints of photographs he took during his treks line his apartment home walls, and mementos cover his chest of drawers and several tables.
“(The prints) are from different sections of the world that I put together,” he said, noting he has 800 slides of sites he has visited in his lifetime.
Among the many items Clark collected, he made note of a bell from Nepal, a pottery shard and ob-sidian arrowhead from Guatemala, a wooden box from Burma, what looked like a horn from Valley of the Kings in Egypt and a boomerang from Australia, where he lived for almost two years.
The New Jersey native started his travels in 1951 — between high school and college.
“For three weeks, two of us went out West in a 1930s Chevrolet from New Jersey,” Clark recalled. “We walked down the Grand Canyon and back up
again. It took us three hours to go down and 10 hours to go up. That was the beginning of my wanderlust.”
Starting in May 1966, at age 33, through Septem-ber 1969, Clark traveled around the world.
“I traveled by boat, by plane, by yacht, by train … hitchhiked,” he said.
“I traveled for 10 months from Washington, D.C., to Australia for $1,800, and then I worked in Austra-lia to get enough money to come home, and I trav-eled a year from Australia through Asia, London ... for $2,400,” Clark added.
“My second around-the-world (trip), I went by

Avenir teaming with P.J. Parkinson’s Group to add resources for new group
■ MICHELLE HOLLENHEAD [email protected]
Adding resources to strengthen Parkinson’s disease support ef-forts locally, Avenir Memory Care is teaming up with P.J. Parkinson’s Support Group to offer a new group for those suffering from the dis-ease, along with their caregivers.
The group’s first meeting was in November and its next will
be from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., Wednesday, Dec. 4, at Avenir, 901 Concord Road. A light lunch will be included.
The new group is under the direction of Isabell Senft-Daniel, founder of P.J. Parkinson’s Sup-port, and Mary Lynne Payne, Ave-nir director of Sales and Market-ing.
“We are really excited about this because it is the first one in
West Knox (County),” said Senft-Daniel, who also oversees two other support groups. “Our mis-sion is to provide caregivers with coping mechanisms and their loved ones with meaningful physi-cal activity, and both a safe place to connect with others who truly understand.”
