SCCF Hosts Grant Award Event

Fol k s at Home of Sewa nee is among the 11 area organizations re-ceiving a 2016 grant from South Cum-berland Community Fund (SCCF). SCCF will host a ceremony on July 31 to make the awards as well as honor the VISTAs who are completing their service on the Plateau. Th e event will begin at 4 p.m., Sunday, July 31, at the Big Red Barn in Beersheba Springs. All are welcome at the free event.

Th e approved grants are: Animal Alliance South Cumberland (A ASC) is an all-volunteer organiza-

tion that makes available accessible, aff ordable spaying and neutering for pets across the Plateau. Th is grant of $3,500 will purchase a tandem axle 7’ x 14’ enclosed cargo trailer. A ASC will use this trailer for two purposes: A ASC’s main fundraiser each year is a very large yard sale, augmented by smaller fl ea market sales during the summer. Th e trailer will be used to store large items and transport them to the sales (rather than keeping them in the garages and barns of volunteers). It will also be used to haul and distribute pallets of donated dog and cat food. AASC uses donated food as an incentive for low-income pet owners to have their pets sterilized and also to help pet owners through diffi cult times.

Coalmont Public Library off ers life-long learning for people of all ages, as well as access to technology and the Internet and is open 20 hours each week. For its 800 card holders and other members of this rural community, it off ers a year-round story time for children, participates in the Interlibrary Loan pro-gram and provides services such as fax, printing and email access. Individuals seeking employment come to the library to search for open positions, to fi ll out and follow-up on online applications and to learn about educational op-portunities. Th is $1,000 grant purchases a new desktop computer to replace an obsolete one and provides funds to help purchase supplies for next year’s summer reading program.

Folks at Home is dedicated to assisting older area residents in living a dig-nifi ed and comfortable lifestyle through coordination of services they need. Th rough this grant of $3,040, Folks at Home will expand its Boost Your Brain and Memory Program, an evidence-based program designed to help partici-pants learn and practice the most promising strategies for keeping the brain healthy as they age. Th e goal is to expand the program into Monteagle, Tracy City and Sewanee or Sherwood. Current program facilitators will mentor new volunteer facilitators, with an “each one teach one” approach to continuing the program with community-based facilitators.

Almost a decade ago, Friends of South Cumberland (FSC) started “Every Child in the Park,” a program that takes every fi ft h-grade class in Grundy County to one of the South Cumberland Parks for an all-day fi eld trip. Th is year’s grant of $9,856 helps FSC expand this program into the fourth grade by creating an

STEM Program for Girlsby Bailey Basham, Messenger Intern

Jamie Treadwell, Education Direc-tor at the Hands on Science Center (HOSC) in Tullahoma was one of 15 science education program leaders to att end a workshop in Miami focused on marketing STEM programs to young girls. STEM is an acronym for the fi elds of science, technology, engineering and math.

The workshop, Ex hibit Design for Girls Engagement (EDGE), was facilitated by the San Francisco Ex-ploratorium and funded by a $1 mil-lion grant from the National Science Foundation. Th e goal of the workshop was to educate those in att endance on how to create girl-friendly exhibits and programs.

“Th ere is currently a trend towards girls-only programs so that they are less intimidated,” said Treadwell . “Because STEM has been perceived as a male topic, there are fewer women

who seek careers that are math- and science-based. We are trying to change those perceptions to encourage girls to consider careers in the fi eld of science.”

Unlike more traditional marketing strategies, Treadwell said the EDGE workshop taught her that making everything pink isn’t necessarily the way to appeal to girls.

“It ’s not about mak ing things pink—even though that’s what ev-eryone thinks. It’s about making it more friendly and familiar, making things have a more homey feel with less technology, steel and chrome,” said Treadwell. “Traditionally speak-ing, technology is chrome, gears and high-tech. That’s intimidating to women and also a lot of people that don’t consider themselves tech-savvy. By making it more welcoming to girls, you’re making it more welcoming to people in general.”

SUD Board Approves Delayed

Payment of Tap Fees

by Leslie Lytle, Messenger Staff Writer

“We would have to insist the note survives even in the event the Cooley’s Rift developers declared bankruptcy,” SUD manager Ben Beavers advised, commenting on a request to delay payment of tap fees presented for a vote at the July 26 meeting of the Board of Commissioners of the Se-wanee Utility District of Franklin and Marion Counties. Th e developer RLF Cooley’s Rift , LLC applied for water service to 23 lots in the Cooley’s Rift development, but subsequently requested two changes to the standard developer’s contract.

Typically the developer is required to pay the $4,150 per lot tap fee at the time the contract is executed. Th e de-veloper is also required to pay a $5 per month dry tap fee until half the lots are sold to cover administrative expenses and line fl ushing costs.

Cooley’s Rift requested a three-year, no-interest note on the tap fee cost, total $95,000, with the tap fee to be paid at the time a customer requested water service. By the provi-sions of the note, the developer would pay any unpaid tap fees at the end of the three-year term. Cooley’s Rift

FULFORD HALL UPDATETo the Editor:

Occasionally someone either thanks us for our eff orts on behalf of Fulford Hall, or asks us what the status of the building is. So for members of the com-munity who might not have been following this issue closely, here’s a litt le report:

We have every reason to believe that Fulford Hall has indeed been saved both from destruction and from being moved.

Th anks to Vice-Chancellor John McCardell for his wise decision to leave the fi ne old building where it is. On Feb. 11 he announced in an email to former Regents that “Fulford Hall will remain where it stands, and its long-term use is still to be determined.”

We are posting this for the record. Th e building stays where it has always stood. Th e administration has put it in writing. Good news!

all-day fi eld trip to the Park’s Visitor’s Center, which will provide an intro-duction to the history, geography, fl ora and fauna of the area; and will provide enriching activities through the use of nature journaling. In addition to building a sense of community, this grant will connect children to nature, support the preservation of the area’s history and culture and increase att en-dance at the Visitors Center by making it more widely known to area children and families.

Grundy County High School has an enrollment of about 725 students (grades 9–12) and a very limited annu-al library budget. Th is grant of $9,095 will help improve literacy skills and expand the library’s capacity to be a teaching space for the school. This grant will purchase books that will be engaging and interesting to high school students and at the appropriate reading level. It will also purchase a new computer and software for cir-culation and inventory of books. Th e grant will also purchase materials to equip the library as a teaching space with advanced audio-visual capabili-ties for multi-media presentations and web seminars.

Grundy County Historical Society operates the Grundy County Heritage Center, which is a museum, a library and a research center about the South Cumberland Plateau. An all-volunteer operation, it supports and encourages appreciation of and education about the culture and history of this region. In 2015, about 2,400 people visited the Center. Dry, secure space is es-sential to the preservation of historic photographs and documents. Th e His-torical Society is housed in a location with three separate roof structures, all of which now need repairs. This

$10,000 grant, combined with a USDA Rural Development grant and sup-port from individual donors, will pay for repair to damage from previous roof leaks and will help support the re-roofi ng of the three buildings.

Grundy County Housing Author-ity provides safe and aff ordable hous-ing for low-income families in the area. Its 110 units range from effi ciencies to four-bedroom units. Of its 219 current residents, 76 are under the age of 18. Grundy County Housing Authority will use this grant to expand its on-site recreational opportunities for families, with a special emphasis on children. Presently there are courts for volleyball and basketball. Th is $4,500 grant will purchase age-appropriate playground equipment for young children so that they and their families will have ready access to safe outdoor play space.

Grundy County Swiss Historical Society, host of the Swiss Celebration and Festival for 42 years, maintains a farmhouse/museum to educate visitors about the unique history of the Swiss sett lement in the Gruetli-Laager area since 1869. Th e farmhouse and the adjacent pavilion are also used for fa m i ly reun ions, com mun it y gatherings and weddings. Th is grant of $4,500 will replace all the gutt ers on the farmhouse and will support the creation of a new drainage system to protect the integrity of the historic building.

Grundy County Youth Football is a county-wide program that provides football and cheerleading for children ages 4 through eighth grade. About 130 children participate in the football program and about 60 children are in the cheerleading program. Games are played every Saturday from August through October, all led and coached

by volunteers. This program is one of the most formative experiences for young people in Grundy County, advancing life skills such as teamwork, discipline, sportsmanship and the importance of physical fi tness. Most of the program’s current helmets are more than a decade old and need to be replaced. Th is $10,000 grant will purchase 100 new state-of-the-art football helmets to ensure the safest possible program.

Pelham Fire and Rescue provides the Pelham Valley community with primary fi re response. Its service area also includes Interstate 24, where they respond to emergency calls, some of which are complex accidents in-cluding hazardous materials. Because it is an unincorporated community, Pelham has no mechanism for assess-ing taxes; most of the funds for the Fire and Rescue program come from an annual Fish Fry and Barbecue. This grant of $9,740 will purchase fi ve new sets of gear (coat, pants and helmet with shield) for firefighters, keeping the program in compliance with federal standards and ensuring the safety of the 12 volunteers who dedicate their time and eff orts to sav-ing the lives of others.

Tracy City Softball and Baseball operates an annual program for boys and girls ages 3–12, involving about 100 children each year. In addition to introducing them to the sport, the program helps children learn to work together as a team, to appreciate the benefits of hard work and practice and to gain experience dealing with stressful situations, including losing. Th is grant of $9,369 supports the de-velopment of a community soft ball/baseball complex on the site of the old high school baseball fi eld. Having reached agreements with the Town of Tracy City, the Grundy County School Board, the Fair Association and the Golf Association, the program can now move forward with surveying the property for future development. Th e grant also purchases portable alumi-num bleachers for use at the current location and that can be moved to the new fi eld when it is completed.

Established in 2012, South Cum-berland Community Fund works to improve the quality of life across the Plateau by increasing philanthropy and supporting leadership of the area’s communities, schools and nonprofi t organizations. Since its founding , SCCF has reinvested nearly $750,000 in projects that benefi t the Plateau.

Following the workshop, Treadwell coordinated a camp specifi cally for fi rst through sixth grade girls interested in STEM. Th is camp was recently held at HOSC in July.

Kellye Burns, HOSC intern and physics major at Clemson University, served as a camp director for the STEM program.

For Burns, giving girls the opportunity to study STEM just makes sense. “Humans love to tell stories, and the greatest story that we could hope to tell is

the story of us. It is impossible to talk about human history without talking about the invention of the wheel, the use of simple machines to build the pyramids, the bridges we built, the weapons we redesigned and going to the moon. STEM is the language we use to write our story,” said Burns. “Now imagine only lett ing half of the population write the story. Take our story and cut it in half. Delete Sally Ride’s trips to space. Delete Madam Curie’s discoveries about radioactivity. Delete Joan Clarke’s work with computers and crypt-analysis. Delete all of the chapters like this, and no one is going to buy the book.

Th at is why it is important that girls have just as much opportunity to study STEM. It’s not about equal pay. It’s not about diversity. It’s not about using “women” as a buzzword to get more grants. It’s about fi lling our space in the universe, and men cannot do it alone.”

Burns said it was her goal at the camp to empower the girls with the tools and understanding to overcome the struggles they might face in the world of STEM. Th e girls left the camp with their interests in STEM validated, but they weren’t the only ones who were rewarded.

“At the end of the camp, every girl walked out excited to talk to their parents about astronomy or about estimating the amount of Ping-Pong balls in a box or about how they got to Skype a female graduate student at CERN,” said Burns. “I watched those young girls become extraordinary.”

Th e HOSC is located at 101 Mitchell Blvd. in Tullahoma. It is open Tues-day–Saturday, 10 a.m.–6 p.m. For more information go to <www.hosc.org>.

AASC Off ers Cartridge Recycling

Th e Animal Alliance-South Cum-berland (A ASC), a low-cost spay neu-ter group, encourages area residents and businesses to recycle printer ink cartridges and toner through A ASC. Cartridges may be dropped off at the Regions Bank in Sewanee, Piggly Wiggly in Monteagle, Community First Financial in Monteagle and the South Cumberland State Park Visi-tor’s Center.

All funds raised through this pro-gram are used to help area residents have their dogs and cats spayed or neutered, at a low cost, to help prevent abandonment and neglect of animals. Recently Fido Fixers, a mobile spay/neuter clinic spent several days at our location in Tracy City to help with this eff ort. “Fixing” feral and indoor/outdoor cats has been an important focus for this program. Th ere are very few grants available to support this work, so local support is essential. A few funds are left to spay cats for the cost of a rabies shot. Contact A ASC at (931) 235-9006 or visit <www.ani malal liancesouthcumberland>.org/>.

Granting Women Voting Rights

Nearly 100 years ago, Tennessee played a pivotal role in granting women across the country the right to vote. Now the Tennessee State Library and Archives has a new online collection that highlights that watershed moment in the nation’s history, titled “Women’s Suff rage: Tennessee and the Passage of the 19th Amendment.”

In 1920, after a debate that had raged for years, 35 of 48 states then in the Union had ratified the 19th Amendment to the United States Con-stitution, which would give women the right to vote. One more state’s ap-proval was needed in order to meet the requirement that three-fourths of the states supported the measure.

Eig ht states had rejec ted t he amendment and f ive had not yet voted on it. Tennessee was seen as the best chance of gett ing the amendment approved before the 1920 presidential election. At a special session called in August of that year, the amendment was quickly approved by the state Sen-ate but then faced stiff er opposition in the House of Representatives. Harry T. Burn, a young House member who initially opposed the amendment, changed his vote—reportedly after being lobbied by his mother —and broke a tie that ensured the passage of a law guaranteeing half the coun-try’s population a fundamental right.

“Speaking as a son and a husband, Tennessee’s vote to ratify the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was surely one of our state’s fi nest mo-ments,” Secretary of State Tre Hargett said. “Th is online collection will make these important historical documents readily available even for people who can’t visit the Library and Archives building and inspect them in person. Th is access is part of our mission to make more of state government avail-able to everyone.”

Th e online collection about the suf-frage movement, drawn from the many documents and photographs stored at Library and Archives, includes papers from prominent pro-suff rage lobbyist Carrie Chapman Catt , anti-suff rage lobbyist Josephine A. Pearson and Governor Albert H. Roberts, as well as lett ers, telegrams, political cartoons, broadsides, photographs and three audio clips. In all, the online collec-tion already has more than 100 items and more will be added as the 100th anniversary of the suffrage vote ap-proaches.

To view the collection go to <htt p://bit.ly/TNwomensuff rage>.

SBA’s First Reverse Raffl e a SuccessTh e Reverse Raffl e on July 8 was a success by many standards. “Th e overall

goal was to raise money for Housing Sewanee and Angel Park,” said John Goodson, president of the Sewanee Business Alliance (SBA). “We did it by selling more than 300 tickets, which we consider a victory,” Goodson added.

Participants purchased tickets for $100 each. All ticket holder stubs were put into the drawing and the last ticket drawn was the winner. Th e fi nal two tickets left in the drawing decided to split the winnings ($5,000 each) and share the jackpot.

John Noff singer of Sewanee and Ken Myrick of Brentwood were the lucky two tickets left by 9:30 p.m. at the fi nal Friday Nights in the Park on July 8. Both chose to give back part of their winnings to the park and other charitable organizations.

Myrick donated back $1,000 of his winnings to Sewanee Angel Park. Noff s-inger donated $500 to Sewanee Angel Park, $500 to Housing Sewanee, $500 to the CAC (Community Action Committ ee) and $500 to Morton Memorial Church for their food bank.

Noff singer is active in the Monteagle Sewanee Rotary and is this year’s chairperson for the second Annual Rotary Hunger Walk to be held Sept. 3. Th e Rotary Hunger Walk has a mission to bring awareness to the poverty on the Mountain and to raise funds to do something about the problem.

Th e fi rst Hunger Walk last year had more than 200 people walk along the Mountain Goat Trail. Th e Hunger Walk raised more than $15,000 last year aft er expenses. Th ese funds were divided between two food banks, Morton Memorial and the CAC. Noff singer’s donation to Morton Memorial and the CAC is his way of gett ing the Hunger Walk off to a good start.

Housing Sewanee is a nonprofi t organization modeled aft er Habitat for Humanity. Sewanee A ngel Park is used by the public to add quality of life  on the Mountain. Th e reverse raffl e was administered by the SBA. All the expenses of the raff le were paid for by the SBA. Th e net proceeds of almost $20,000 will be divided be-tween Housing Sewanee and Sewanee Angel Park.

Th e SBA plans on this continuing as an annual event and fund-raising eff ort.

also requested SUD waive the monthly dry tap fee.“We need to be very cautious given the history of the project,” Beavers said.

New Life, the former Cooley’s Rift developer, was forced to liquidate by credi-tors and a court order.

Brian Youngblood, representing the present Cooley’s Rift developers, expressed confi dence in their marketing plan. “We’ve already sold six of the existing lots,” Youngblood said. Interest in lakefront lots is particularly strong, according to Youngblood. Fift een of the 23 lots identifi ed in the SUD contract are lakefront.

Raising another concern, Beavers said accepting the note as payment might violate SUD policy, which requires payment at the time the contract is signed. “We’d need to check with the att orney to see if a note constitutes payment,” Beavers insisted.

Aft er long deliberation, the board agreed to the three-year note contingent on SUD att orney Don Scholes satisfying both of SUD’s concerns, survivability of the note and compatibility with current policy.

Th e board voted against waiving the dry tap fee.“Flushing lines would be the only cost SUD incurs during the three-year

period of the note,” Beavers said. Th e dry tap fee covers that expense. In reviewing operations Beavers stressed the need for sewer line remedia-

tion in three areas prone to overfl ows, Depot Branch, Alto Road and Running Knob Hollow Road.

“Depot Branch is the worst,” Beavers said. “We’ll address it fi rst. Th ere’s enough money in the budget to start the project.” Th e problem stems from roots growing into the old clay pipe. At present, SUD cleans the line every other week to avoid backups. According to Beavers, 2,000 feet of line needs replaced. He estimated the total cost at approximately $80,000.

Beavers projected it would cost $200,000 to do all the sewer line remedial work needed. Beavers will consult with the state comptroller about the legality of drawing on SUD’s cash reserves to fi nance the sewer repairs. SUD drew on the cash reserves to fi nance the automatic meter reading project. As a public utility, SUD law prohibits SUD from drawing the cash reserve below the mini-mum required balance in successive years.

Flagging another operations issue, Beavers said he will consult with the Ten-nessee Department of Environment and Conservation about how to control the invasive duckweed at two of the wastewater treatment plant ponds. “Th e duckweed shades out the algae needed to put oxygen back in the water,” Beavers said. Th e duckweed appeared following the introduction of plants to the con-structed wetlands, the site of a pilot wastewater treatment study by University of the South and University of Georgia. Th e SUD Board meets next on Aug. 23.

ANGELWITH ANATTITUDE

by Virginia Craighill

Dear Angel,I came up to Sewanee for vacation hoping to see my friends who

work and live here, but for some reason everyone I know had left town. Why would anyone leave such a paradise and pay money to vacation elsewhere? Why don’t Sewanee locals just stay here and enjoy all the wonderful opportunities of this place?

Signed,YS(ummer’s)R

Dear Righteous Summer Visitor,Sewanee is indeed an excellent vacation destination as is evident

from the amount of “summer people” wandering University Avenue and bellying up to the Shakerag Bar at the Inn or crowding the porch at Shenanigan’s. You are likely to encounter literary celebrities and old college chums in the same place and can hear music waft ing from every corner of the campus, as if the angels were singing to you. Th e trails are green, the views enchanting and the golf course verdant. It must seem odd to the outsider that anyone living here would ever wish to leave.

However, consider that Sewanee is the University, and if you work for the University, vacationing here is like sett ing up a tent in your offi ce building. You cannot go to a party or an event without encountering your bosses, and it is hard to have a conversation that doesn’t touch on some aspect of your job. If people know you are in town, even if you’re hunkering down in your house with the lights off , you’ll be called into meetings, asked to give a talk, or feel the constant spectre of work around every corner.

So when Sewanee locals go on vacation, they tend to go to places that are just like Sewanee but without the anxiety. Th ey become the “summer people” in litt le towns with no grocery stores where no one locks the doors, and they understand why the locals resent them. Th ey like to visit places with great natural beauty and good hiking. Th ey like to fi nd peaceful spots with bad cell service where they can relax and read good books without being interrupted by phone calls or emails.

Sewanee is paradise, but for the angels who work there, paradise is a full-time job.

Signed,Angel, who is currently on vacation in a tiny

Sewanee-like village by the sea

Star Trek Beyond (2016, PG-13, 2 hrs. 2 min.)Dir. Justin LinStarring: Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Karl Urban, John Cho, Zoe Saldana, Simon Pegg, Anton Yelchin, Idris Elba and Sofi a Boutella

Sarah: Th is kicked some major and serious butt . “Star Trek: Be-yond” has become my favorite in the recent “Star Trek” reboots. “Star Trek” (2009) was full of annoying post-editing (lens fl ares, anyone?) and “Star Trek Into Darkness” (2013) butchered what could have been a beautiful retelling of the Enterprise crew versus arguably one of its more formidable opponents, Khan Noonien Singh (unfortunately played by ultra-white-guy Benedict Cumberbatch). Since being let down by “Star Trek Into Darkness” led by J.J. Abrams, I had mixed ex-pectations going into the theater for “Star Trek Beyond.” However, I was blown out of my chair and launched directly into deep space to chill with the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise. Be prepared to pack Depends because you will not want to leave the theater and miss a moment.

Emily: I guess I should start by saying that I’m extremely biased when it comes to all things “Star Trek.” I could watch a 2-hour movie of the Enterprise crew doing nothing more but interact with one an-other and I would be a happy camper. Th at being said, this fi lm was a great comeback for the reboot franchise aft er the disappointment that was the 2013 “Star Trek Into Darkness.” (Petition to pretend this fi lm doesn’t exist, anyone?) “Star Trek Beyond” delivered well developed rapport between the crew, reminiscent of the original TV series, mak-ing it a fi tt ing 50th anniversary tribute of “going boldly where no one has gone before.”

Sarah: Th is movie was tight, beautiful, wonderfully writt en and acted (thank you Simon Pegg and Doug Jung). Th e introduction of the new character, Jaylah, who is a resourceful scavenger stranded since a child on a deserted planet at the edge of the known universe (Rey in “Star Wars: Th e Force Awakens” anyone?) was very organic and not forced. I am so pleased sci-fi movies such as “Star Wars: Th e Force Awakens” and “Star Trek Beyond” are introducing these lovable orphan ladies into their stories to inject some much needed life and freshness into the old and male-dominated franchises.

Emily: Th e editing was well done and the makeup and special eff ects were on par as usual. I agree with Sarah regarding Jaylah. I’m always over the moon when new female characters are introduced into franchises. However, I hate to point out that even in this newest reboot edition the cast of characters is still largely male. Saldana’s Uhura received some fantastic scenes, but honestly I’m waiting for her to get her own movie. One thing “Star Trek” has consistently excelled at since its inception in 1966 is diversity. Th e reboot holds true to this, but I’m of the opinion that there can always be more.

Sarah: “Star Trek Beyond” took a long hard look at where it came from, took that to heart, and made something beautiful out of its roots. I truly and honestly believe any “Star Trek” fan will look at this movie with the same wonder and love that made them fall in love with “Star Trek” in the fi rst place. Even though the cast is largely male, they are making huge steps (by Hollywood standards) to be more inclusive. Lt. Cdr. Sulu is canonically gay with an adorable daughter.

Emily: Lt. Cdr. Sulu should also get his own movie. Sarah: True to that. Also, the ladies (there could always be more)

aren’t shrinking violets in the corner but are active, present and kick-ing butt , almost like they are real people, too. I grew up watching “Star Wars” and “Star Trek: Th e Next Generation,” and unfortunately the Padmé Amidalas, Beverly Crushers and Guinans were few and far between in the sci-fi genre. I grew up wanting to be a Jedi like Luke Skywalker or a Starfl eet Captain like Jean-Luc Picard (sign me up for bootcamp on Dagobah with some Earl Grey, hot). I am happy to the point of crying that today’s young girls and boys can grow up wanting to become a new Jedi like Rey, rebel fi ghters like Poe Dameron and Finn or Starfl eet offi cers such as Lt. Uhura and Lt. Cdr. Sulu.

Emily: Sci-fi has always been a dynamic genre and like Sarah, I grew up on “Star Wars” and “Star Trek.” I’m overjoyed these two franchises that defi ned my childhood are still being produced today (with even more diversity and female representation). No, this movie was not per-fect, but the new injection of a tone more similar to that of the original series brought a level of nostalgia, which when mixed with the reboot’s own unique fl air, makes me want to watch this fi lm again and again.

Sarah: I will gladly pay full price to see this movie again in theaters, and buy it full price (maybe even with Blu-Ray) when it releases on DVD.

Emily: I have already planned my second theater visit. Sarah: My life is not that together in order to plan that far ahead.

“My motivation to create oil paint-ings comes from various sources which may consist of a speck of light on a piece of colorful ground, a cloud or perhaps a group of mountains,” said Teuscher. “In this case a cloud of smoke envelops the subject whose concentration and dignity bring the viewer into the experience.”

“Heat Index” is an acrylic paint-ing on black gesso canvas by Sandra Pay nter-Washburn. Pi led up and ready to use in your favorite spicy recipe are a bunch of hot chili peppers, Washburn’s equivalent of August in Chatt anooga.

“Making art is an integral part of my life. It is a blessing, a way of ac-cessing and expressing inner scapes that would otherwise go unexplored. Simple acts like squeezing paint onto my palette and mi x ing the colors take me to a place where I am chal-lenged and appreciated, refi ned and encouraged. I like the puzzle that is art, the challenge of fi guring out what works and what doesn’t and why,” said Washburn.

Roger Harvey has enjoyed careers

as a pott er, teacher, goldsmith and en-gineer. Presently he makes salt glazed pott ery and wooden functional items. His pott ery is wheel thrown and oft en reshaped before drying.

“I use various colored clays and glazes over the exteriors. Salt glazing is accomplished by throwing common salt into the kiln near the end of fi ring. Th e salt vaporizes and the vapors fi ll the kiln and react with the clay and glazes to produce interesting and du-rable textured surfaces,” said Harvey.

“Yosemite Flame” taken by pho-tographer, Spears McAllister, shot his photo in Yosemite Valley last fall.

“Normally, I work very hard to eliminate all motion taking my pho-tographs. Th is photograph, however, is the second in a series that include deliberate camera motion to create dif-ferent eff ects in the image. Th e camera motion gives the impression of fl ames in the fall colors of cott onwoods along the Merced River,” said McAllister.

“Beach Music” by Jennie Kirkpat-rick was inspired by a series of photos surreptitiously taken while on a beach vacation. Women on a “girl trip” oft en spend a hot day at the beach then shower and dress for an evening out dining. Maybe a late aft ernoon stroll on the beach is in order and the sea gulls gather hopeful for their own din-ing experience.

“This group reminded me of so many similar scenes of myself and friends that I just had to commemorate it in a painting,” said Kirkpatrick.

ParadiationFor the first time, I volunteered to help with the Fourth of July in

Sewanee. Not big volunteered, but enough to get invited to the planning meetings. Other than one active political matriarch, whom we all know and love, I had never met any of these other community activists. I have, for over a decade, enjoyed the fl awless off ering of the Sewanee variety show that is July 4. Th ese focused and dedicated volunteers are our deep community.

One cannot doubt that they are the organized helper personality type, whatever that is currently called. Nothing escapes the person in charge as she eff ectively moves down her checklist of budgets and volunteers, off ering support and encouragement where needed. Th is is bigger than I realized; dogs, cats, cakes, games, parades, and fi reworks all reduced to one page on a clipboard. Like a premium fi rework, that page explodes into a day of memorable joy for all.

I am proud to know this deep community; to have joined together; blocked traffi c; occupied the street and reminded all about the joy of free-dom.

It’s A Privilege To Know YaIs it not white privilege toBe upset at protest traffi c? To Worry about missed airport connections? To Worry about being late for work? To See the protesters as lawbreakers? To Forget Watt s, Detroit, D.C. half a lifetime agoMartin Luther King Jr. shot less than 40 years old.Is his legacy being shot as a young black man?While two generations later, young black men are still being shot?Rodney King, beaten by police at 26 years old,We forget those LA riots, tooAnd one generation later, young black men are still being beaten and shot!Hey, “Channel your outrage!”“Don’t disrupt my life!” WhereSympathy is conditioned, whereOutrage conditional,On my comfort.Allow me to comfort you; You, whose every street is death row.A fact, I’ll not personally know.You step onto the street. You are not wanted.Lawbreaker.You toss the contents of your rock hard guts.Lawbreaker. You dareTo drive broken cars.Deathtraps. You dareTo venture out,Deathtraps. You dareTo live on your death row aft er row aft er row!Death row, where all you freely own is your death.Th e prison guard told me, that on their fi nal mile,“All they want to do is step off the concrete to touch the grass,Feel the Green,” God’s green earth.So, yeah, throw away those concrete chains,Sure, you rage at fellow humans,More than just an issue of what they’re wearing,(because this is not a rape question)Th ey in their riot gearAnd you in your summer dress.

Expect others to notice your hearing loss before you do! A common complaint for persons with hearing loss is that other people mumble and if they would just speak up it would be easier to hear them. This is placing the “blame” on others rather than accepting the reality that your hearing is not as good as it used to be. It is likely that family, friends and co-workers will realize this difficulty before you do.Expect your Audiologist to be knowledgeable, courteous and accommodating. When going through this process it is very important that you are comfortable with the Audiologist that you have chosen to provide services for you. You should be allowed time to ask questions and discuss important issues related to your hearing loss and hearing aids.If you have questions about hearing loss or hearing aids please feel free to contact us at Debbie Gamache’s The Hearing Center LLC. We are located at 705 NW Atlantic St. Suite B, Tullahoma. You can call us at 931-393-2051. You can also visit our website at <www.thehearingcenterllc.com>. We look forward to hearing from you.

High Museum of Art to Exhibit Walker Evans: Depth of Field

Walker Evans (American, 1903–1975) is widely considered among the most inf luential artists of the 20th century. His pioneering “lyric” documentary style was elegant, subtle and direct, fusing a powerful personal

perspective with an objective record of time and place. For more than 50 years, Evans focused his lens on the American scene, building a catalogue of our nation’s social landscape and collective identity through a portrayal

of small towns, working-class families, modern urban life and printed adver-tisements.

Evans is best remembered for his work documenting the A merican South, where he made among his most indelible images during the Great De-pression (including the photographs in “Let Us Now Praise Famous Men” with writer James Agee). His early work from the 1920s on the streets of New York was inspired by Euro-pean avant-garde aesthetics and a deep interest in literary conventions. Before chronicling the Depression in Ameri-ca, Evans trained his eye on the work-ing class of pre-revolutionary Cuba. In the decades following his seminal Southern work, he demonstrated in-terest in covert candid photography, meditated on the aesthetic possibilities of signs and experimented with color Polaroid fi lm.

Evans’ diverse contributions an-ticipated and resonated with the mid-century Pop Art movement, insisting that art could be an act of taking, collecting, isolating and assembling everyday artifacts in new contexts. Th e exhibit runs until Sept. 11 at the High Museum in Atlanta, 1280 Peachtree St. NE. Go to <w w w.high.org> for more information.

State Museum to Exhibit 238 Works by Artist Red Grooms

Th e Tennessee State Museum has entered into a promised gift agree-ment with Walter and Sarah Knestrick of Nashville to receive a donation of 238 graphic artworks created by internationally acclaimed artist Red Grooms. Th e museum will also receive 52 commercially printed posters as part of the gift .

Grooms, born and raised in Nash-ville, currently resides in New York Cit y and maintains a home near Beersheba Springs, Tenn. His work has been exhibited in museums and gal-leries across the United States, as well as in Europe and Japan. Grooms’ art is included in the collections of more than 39 museums, including the State Museum.

K nestrick, the retired founder of Walter Knestrick Contractor, Inc. and a longtime friend of the State Museum, was a boyhood classmate of Grooms. He began col lecting Grooms’ prints in the 1970s and has helped organize traveling exhibitions of the works since the 1980s.

In 2001, K nestrick ’s collection comprised a State Museum travel-ing exhibition in conjunction with the publication of a catalog raisonné of Grooms’ graphic work entitled “Red Grooms: The Graphic Work,” which Knestrick authored. Th e show opened at the National Academy Mu-seum in New York and then traveled to the Chicago Cultural Center, and was presented at 10 other American museums.

Grooms is an A merican mu l-timedia artist best k now n for his colorful pop-art constructions de-picting frenetic scenes of modern urban life. Many contemporary art historians consider Grooms to be one of Tennessee’s most accomplished artists. Besides painting and sculpture, Grooms is also known for his prolifi c printmaking. He has experimented with numerous techniques, creat-ing woodblock prints, spray-painted stencils, soft-ground etchings, and elaborate three-dimensional litho-graph constructions.

Grooms, born in Nashville in 1937 and raised in Tennessee, began his artistic exploration while attending public schools. In 1955, while they were both Hillsboro High School seniors, Grooms and Knestrick’s work was featured in a two-man show of 35 paintings at Nashville’s Lyzon Gallery.

In 1958 Grooms moved to New York City to immerse himself in its art scene while working at such odd jobs as a movie house usher. Th e vibrant color of his hair earned him the name “Red,” and his art “Happenings,” un-structured live performances, began to earn him a measure of notoriety in the art world.

With regard to the Knestricks’ gift , Grooms said: “I so appreciate my dear old friend Walter Knestrick taking it upon himself to collect each and ev-ery one of my graphic works over the years, which makes the Knestrick Col-lection gift to my home state museum both unique and particularly special.”

Noted New York art appraiser Dr. Alex J. Rosenberg said, “One usually begins to collect an artist’s work aft er he or she has established their reputa-tion, making it very diffi cult to succeed in collecting the artist’s entire oeuvre. However, the Knestricks are the rare exceptions who began to collect Red Grooms’ printed art when it was read-ily available and aff ordable and have continued to do so. Without their fore-sight, I doubt that this unique, valuable and complete collection of Grooms’ printed work would exist. I extend my admiration and congratulations to the Knestricks for their magnifi cent and irreplaceable promised gift to the people of Tennessee.”

Th ere are plans for Grooms’ graph-ic work to be on exhibit in one of the art galleries in the new State Museum, scheduled to open in 2018.

NATURENOTESBy Harry and Jean Yeatman

Snowy EgretsFrom the July 19, 2013 issue, in honor of Jean Yeatman’s birthday.

Jean Yeatman reports that on July 13, she and Harry picked up Zell and Alex Hoole to drive them down to the Crow Creek impoundment surrounding the Stevenson Park to see the American Lotus in bloom. When they arrived they discovered that the water was so high it was covering the plant. Unless the waters go down, this will be a very bad winter for the ducks that fl y in to eat the seeds of the lotus. Th e group then drove over to the North Alabama birding trail, but it was mostly blocked off due to the high water.

Th e day wasn’t a complete washout because aft er eating lunch, as they started home on Highway 117 about four miles from Stevenson, they spied a number of birds feeding in two fi elds beside the road. In one fi eld there was a Great Egret with four adult Litt le Blue Herons. Th e Great Egret is a large, stately, slender white heron with a yellow bill and black legs and feet. Th e Litt le Blue Heron is slender, medium-sized, with a slate-blue body, a deep maroon-brown neck and dark legs.

In the other fi eld was one Snowy Egret and an immature Litt le Blue Heron. Th e Snowy Egret is distinguished by its “golden slippers.” Th ese bright yellow feet are the most striking thing about this rather small white heron with a slender dark bill and black legs. Th e immature Litt le Blue Heron is white with a bluish bill and dull greenish legs.

To top it off , a Pileated Woodpecker fl ew across the fi elds.Jean also mentioned that there are hundreds of Chanterelle mush-

rooms in the woods now, so if you are a knowledgeable picker, go gather a basket full.

BE SAFE!OBEY THE BICYCLE

HELMET LAWTennessee law requires all persons under the age of 12 to wear a hel-met while riding a bicycle on any state road. University Avenue is a state road and, therefore, subject to the law. Th e act also contains provi-sions requiring restraining seats on bicycles for passengers who are children under 40 pounds or who are less than 40” tall.

PEDESTRIANSand BIKERS —EXERCISE CAUTION! When you are out gett ing your exercise, following a few simple rules will keep you on the go. When biking on Sewanee side-walks, cyclists should slow down when passing pedestrians since some may not hear a warning bike bell and know to step to the right. Walkers should walk on the left -hand side of the road, travel-ing against the traffi c; bicyclers should travel in the right-hand lane, going with the fl ow of traffi c. During the day, both walkers and bikers should wear clothing of bright, easily seen colors, and, from dusk on, wear light, refl ec-tive clothing. In any case, don’t just assume drivers can see you. Be on the lookout … for your own safety.

I am fevered with the sunset I am fretful with the bay,For the wander-thirst is on me And my soul is in Cathay . . .

Th ere’s a schooner in the offi ng, With her topsails shot with fi re,And my heart has gone aboard her For the Islands of Desire.

I must forth again tomorrow! With the sunset I must beHull down on the trail of rapture In the wonder of the Sea. —Richard Hovey, Th e Sea Gypsy
