Serving Grainger County since 2004
County employees may receive raise
TRACEY WOLFE
Managing Editor
RUTLEDGE – County commissioners
voted to amend the proposed FY 201516 budget to reflect a 30-cent raise for all
county employees.
The raise would replace the
previously proposed salary supplement
of $600 for full-time employees and $250
for part-time employees, with all other
raises proposed within the budget to be
removed from the budget.
The motion for the resolution,
submitted by Commissioner Elizabeth
White and seconded by Commissioner
David Collins, passed in a 11-4 vote,
with commissioners Darell Stratton,
Johnny Baker, Rodney Overbay and Luke
Stratton voting against the raise.
Commissioners began to discuss
the possibility of giving a raise to
employees following a request by Sheriff
James Harville that they consider
giving a percentage raise to employees
rather than continuing with the salary
supplement.
Harville said he felt giving a percentage
raise to employees would be beneficial
to the county in the future by improving
the likelihood of finding employees a
few years from now when surrounding
counties’ salaries had increased.
He said it was already becoming
difficult to find employees and said it
would likely become even more difficult
a few years from now if the county
still offered the same salary rate in
comparison with higher salaries offered
in surrounding counties.
One
issue
discussed
among
commissioners regarding giving a salary
increase in comparison to a salary
supplement was that a salary increase
could not be rescinded in subsequent
years if needed to save money in the
budget, whereas a salary supplement
could.
Resolutions to fix the tax levy,
appropriate money for charitable
organizations and appropriate money
for various funds and departments
were tabled until next month, when the
proposed budget could be amended to
reflect the across-the-board raise.

James Stewart, Damien Stewart and Catana Stewart model the new backpacks filled with school supplies they received
from Blue Springs Baptist Church for the new school year. The backpack giveaway is an annual event for Blue Springs
Baptist Church, providing children with the supplies needed for school. The church offered backpacks for two weeks this
year due to the needs of the community.
RUTLEDGE – Grainger County Commissioners have
voted to approve a resolution to call upon the governor
and the Tennessee General Assembly to “do whatever
is necessary to protect the freedom of expression
rights of traditional Bible believing Christians.”
The resolution states that many Christians hold to
a literal belief in the Biblical definition of marriage,
which is to be between one man and one woman, and
asserts the more than 6,000-year history of human
civilization has held that marriage is to be between
one man and one woman.
The resolution cites the United States Supreme
Court’s ruling that homosexual marriage is to be “the
law of the land” and contends that according to the
10th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, “this is an
area of law reserved exclusively to the states.”
It asks Governor Bill Haslam, Speaker of the
Tennessee House of Representatives Beth Harwell and
Lieutenant Governor and Speaker of the Tennessee
Senate Ron Ramsey to “institute, create, establish,
order and command the laws, regulations and

Voltage monitors installed on lake
TRACEY WOLFE
Managing Editor
NASHVILLE – Voltage monitors have been
installed on Cherokee Reservoir to collect
data that investigators said they hope will
reveal more details about the cause of lowvoltage electricity that was discovered in the
lake.
The monitors were installed Friday, August
7, in an attempt to determine the source of the
electrical current.
A team comprised of the Tennessee
State Fire Marshal’s Office, Tennessee
Valley Authority and Appalachian Electric
Cooperative began examining the issue
after receiving four complaints about mild
electrical current in the lake, the week of July
22.
According to Tennessee Department of
Commerce & Insurance Communications
Director Kevin Walters, a two-week window
was set for collecting voltage readings to give
the team more data about the voltage during
an extended period.
Walters said voltage will be tracked on
a 24/7 basis to determine if there are any
fluctuations of the voltage level.
“While we haven’t seen any voltage readings
so far that might indicate a life-safety hazard,
we don’t want to miss any fluctuations above
(or below) what we’ve found. The information
we gather during this period will help us
create a more comprehensive analysis of the
situation. We take the safety of Tennesseans
seriously, and we want to keep them informed
about this situation,” he said.
Engineers are hopeful data gathered by the
monitors will give them enough information
to help them diagnose the source of the
electrical current and correct the problem.

Preparation leads
to student success
BARBARA WOMACK
GT Correspondent
RUTLEDGE – The new school year is
off to a good start and classes are now in
full swing in Grainger County.
After two days of in-service training
for the staff, students reported for a half
day Wednesday and a full day Thursday.
The first full week is this week.
“All went well,” said Director of
Schools Edwin Jarnagin.
“While the school calendar lists
August 5 as the official first day of
school, it actually occurred much earlier
for teachers, principals, administrators
and parents,” Jarnagin said.
“I am always amazed at the amount of
time Grainger County staff and parents
put into school preparation during the
summer months. This hard work does
not go unnoticed,” he said. “As the
director, it is exciting and rewarding
when all of the time and efforts of all
involved culminates to a wonderful first
day of school.”
He also praised the board of
education and its support during the
past year when students in both the
elementary and high schools showed
overall improvement on standardized
tests.
“The Grainger County Board of
Education fully supports the academic
progress that has led to successes in all
schools. Grainger County School Board
members work diligently to ensure
students receive a quality education
while working with limited funds.”

WASHBURN – Students at Washburn
School are not only learning the three
Rs of readin’, ‘ritn’ and ‘rithmetic, but
another set of Rs as well.
It is a part of the Governor’s Golden
Rule Challenge to inform them how they
should treat others.
“We have a motto of be ready,
respectful and responsible. There are
signs and images around the school
to show what it is like,” said Washburn
Principal Ginny McElhaney. Since
classes started last week, McElhaney
has been reading the book Golden Rule
Challenge.
The main character is “Principal
Smooches,” McElhaney said.
“We are trying to teach them to treat
others as they would wish to be treated.
m
The story has no end,” she said, as
evidenced by the last page, which reads
“not the end.”

The book is being read to studentse
in all the county’s schools and will bew
modified for middle school and highT
school students, said Director of Schools
Edwin Jarnagin.
The challenge is to all schools across
the state because Tennessee has one of
the highest crime rates in the nation,
said Tracy Anderson, a communications
connector for Gov. Bill Haslam, said in a
letter accompanying the book.
“Our Governor wants to change that
one step at a time. Please encourage all
teachers to have the students engaged
in some type of activity relating to the
book and we also encourage teachers
and principals to take pictures and place
them on their school website/ district
website,” Anderson said.

three-year program
NASHVILLE – Two Grainger County
librarians have graduated from the
Tennessee State Library and Archives
Public Library Management Institute.
Amanda Williams of the Washburn
Community Library and Fayrene Miller
of the Bean Station Public Library were
among 23 graduates of the three-year
training program.
Program participants spend a week
each year in training sessions, learning
about library values, library governance,
leadership, project and personnel
management and strategic partnerships.
The program was founded in 1995.
“The Public Library Management
Institute has served librarians and, by
extension, the library visitors they serve
well for 20 years,” said Secretary of State
Tre Hargett. “The goal of this program is
to help our state’s librarians provide the
best possible experience they can to each
person who walks through a library’s
doors or accesses a library website
online. I commend this year’s graduates
for their hard work and dedication to
improving their craft.”
“TSLA is pleased to operate the Public
Library Management Institute as part
of our ongoing commitment to provide
training and support to public librarians
throughout
Tennessee,
particularly
those who serve rural and suburban
communities,” State Librarian and
Archivist Church Sherrill said. “This
program highlights some of the best
practices in library management and it
also provides librarians with networking
opportunities that can be beneficial
throughout their careers.”

Dear Editor,
Tennessee has a leash law that our police departments
don’t enforce and our commissioners refuse to fund
a humane society. As a result, the dog population is
getting out of control. I’m curious to know how many
tickets have been given to dog owners that just let their
dogs run loose? My guess would be zero. Our county
commissioners have been asked many times for funding
but they deny it each time.
So at this time, first, I would like to ask dog owners
to be responsible and keep their dogs out of the road.
Second, I would like to ask all of our police departments
to enforce the leash law in Tennessee. Last, I would like
to ask our county commissioners to fund an animal
shelter before our county is hit with another lawsuit.

Grainger, Cherokee and Volunteer
to play in Northeastern Conference
ELMER SMITH
GT Correspondent
RUTLEDGE – This year’s realignment
of football regions by the Tennessee
Secondary Schools Athletics Association
(TSSAA) has had a big impact on the
football programs at Cherokee, Grainger
and Volunteer high schools. Those
three teams are joined by Greeneville,
Seymour, Sullivan Central, Sullivan East
and Sullivan South in the Region One 4-A
which has been named the Northeastern
Conference.
The realignment, based on attendance
numbers from the 2014-15 school year,
has resulted in both Cherokee and
Volunteer dropping down from the 5-A
classification, where they were among
the smallest schools, to 4-A classification
where both schools have the highest
enrollment in the newly formed Region
One 4-A classification. The reverse is
true for both Grainger and Greeneville
who were the largest schools in their
previous classification and are now at
the bottom in attendance in the new
classification.
Cherokee, with 1160 students,
Volunteer, with 1096 students, and
Seymour, with 1093 students, have
the largest enrollment while Sullivan
South, with 899 students, Grainger with
892 students, and Greeneville, with
887 students, have the three smallest
enrollments in the region.
Since there are 14 schools in Region
One and Region Two, it would appear
that each of these regions would have
seven teams each instead of eight for
Region One and six for Region Two. That
disparity has a big impact on scheduling
as the Northeastern Conference (Region
One) must schedule seven region games
while Region Two schools schedule only
five region games.
With a 10 game season, that cuts the
total number of non-region games to
three for Region One while Region Two
schedules five non-region games. With
the odd number of games the schools will
alternate between three and four home
games in a season.
The impact for both Cherokee and
Volunteer will be very positive as both
teams will escape being smaller schools in
the previous configuration. For Volunteer
that will mean they will no longer be in
competition with the likes of DobynsBennett, Science Hill, Tennessee High of
Bristol while Cherokee will no longer be
playing the likes of Morristown West,
Sevier County and Morristown East.
“It’s a no-brainer,” said Cherokee Head
Coach Mike Sivert. “It’s more favorable
for a school of our size. However, we’re
still going to be playing a lot of tough
football teams.”
“It’s a good thing,” said Volunteer
Head Coach Barry Jones. “When you’re
playing the big schools, it’s generally a
losing battle. Now the kids feel they can
challenge and compete and that’s a big
plus. There will be considerable travel
involved but there will be some natural
rivalries evolve.”
The Grainger Grizzlies will continue
to face Greeneville and will once again
be playing Seymour, a team that was a
regular on the schedule in years past.
“As far as the alignment goes we’re just
going to play who the TSSAA tells us to
play, and we’re going to play well,” said
Grainger Head Coach Chad Tate.
The 2015 Football Preview will be in next week’s issue of Grainger Today.

Local artist finds inspiration in everyday beauty
REGINA MITCHELL
GT Reporter
RUTLEDGE – Local artist and author
Jeri Landers said her cottage style home
on Joppa Mountain Road is a source
of inspiration for her art as well as her
writing.
Landers was born in New York and
moved with her family at the age of
one to Colorado, where she spent years
perfecting her art. Landers said her
art and illustrations are a combination
of folk art painting, illustrations and
realism. Her art incorporates her love
of animals and a multitude of medians.
Landers said she creates her artwork by
using the Dutch art of scherenschnitte,
or paper cutting, as well as watercolor,
which adds depth to her artwork and the
illustrations of her books.
She said her books; Hope Along
Hollow, Brushy Bushybottom and
Mamsey and Mopkin, are written and
illustrated in the Old World Style.
According to Landers, while attending
an art show, a patron had admired the
whimsical artwork on one of her greeting
cards which featured a rabbit riding a
rooster and suggested to Landers that
she adapt her art to create children’s
books.
Landers said it was that idea, and her
love of animals and of antique children’s
books, that would become part of the
inspiration for her books.
Landers said she had once bought
an antique bonnet for one of her
ducks so that she would have a visual
representation for the creation of her
characters.
She said it was a chance meeting that
brought her and her art to the hills of
East Tennessee. While attending an art
show in Pennsylvania, she was shown
photos of Tennessee by a neighboring
attendee who recommended that she
visit the state.
It was on a whim, she said, that she
had adjusted her return route home and
traveled through Tennessee. Landers
said she instantly fell in love with the
beauty of the mountains and returned
the following year to explore the idea of
purchasing property. After being shown
several homes, she chose a home in the
Joppa community of Grainger County.
Landers said, “I looked past its
imperfections and saw what it could
be. It was a diamond in the rough.”
The property, which Landers lovingly
named, Ochre Moon Manor, with it’s
outbuilding, barn, babbling creek and
acres of rolling land, helped to bring
“Hop Along Hollow” to life. Landers’
love of animals is apparent in the large

population of animals, which along with
Landers, call the manor home.
According to Landers, her pets are not
only a source of inspiration but a source
of materials for the creative process.
Landers says she collects the eggs from
the ducks and geese on her farm, which
she dyes. Using a dental tool, she etches
the eggs to create fragile works of art.
Landers said she also began to create
three-dimensional versions of her book
characters by using the technique of
needle felting, about a year ago. Landers
said she learned the skill from another
artist while attending an art show.
Landers said the art form was originally
a technique used to create hats and
scarves but that she has adapted it to
utilize the wool collected from her sheep.
Through her needlework, she brings
the characters of her storylines to life.
Landers said she is currently working
on three other books, one of which will
feature her garden and its ever-changing
furry inhabitants.

“Close The Door!”
toolkit ready for fire
departments, schools
NASHVILLE – As a new school year
begins, the Tennessee State Fire Marshal’s
Office (SFMO) is urging Tennesseans to
remember that closing a door during a
fire is one of the fastest ways to stop fires
from spreading.
To help get the word out, the SFMO is
highlighting its “Close The Door!” toolkit,
which is available for fire departments,
educators and others to use in order
to better prepare themselves in case
of a fire emergency. The kit includes
downloadable flyers, a press release
with checklist and sample social media
messages.
“A new school year is the perfect time
for students, teachers and families to
be reminded that simply closing a door
can prevent devastating fire loss,” said
Tennessee Department of Commerce &
Insurance Commissioner and State Fire
Marshal Julie Mix McPeak.
A closed door hinders flames and
BELIEFS from GT1
executive orders that are necessary to
preserve, protect and defend Tennessee
citizens from the oppressive and
repressive restrictions handed down
from them the federal judiciary, which
abrogates their right to believe and act
on literal belief in the Bible’s teachings
on marriage. These laws, regulations
and executive orders must allow that
belief to have free expression in every
aspect of the lives of Tennessee citizens
both public and private with fear of
repercussions from neither criminal nor
civil prosecution.”
The resolution passed in a unanimous
vote.

smoke from spreading to other rooms
and can help deprive a fire of the oxygen
it needs to grow, limiting the structural
damage a fire can cause and, most
importantly, save lives.
Remember:
• Close the bedroom door when
sleeping, if possible.
• Close doors upon exit when escaping
a room/building that’s on fire.
• If unable to escape a building that
is on fire, individuals should close all
doors between them and the fire. They
should use towels or sheets to seal door
cracks and cover air vents and call the
fire department to report their exact
location.
• Keep fire doors closed. These
specialized
doors
are
used
to
compartmentalize a building and prevent
the spread of smoke and flames. Never
wedge, disable, or prop open fire doors
in apartments or other buildings.

as ‘gravel’). We photographed and took
into our possession several small baggies
containing what appeared to be Alpha

a vial containing some blue pills believed
to be roxicodone.”

An Elkins Road couple was charged with distribution of gravel. Pictured above is evidence
from their residence.
Couple facing
gravel charges
BILL JONES
HT Correspondent
ROGERSVILLE – An Elkins Road
couple has been charged in connection
with distribution of the illegal drug
Alpha-PVP, also known by its street
name of “gravel.”
Warren Edward Richards, 52, of
274 Elkins Road and Brandi Michelle
Edwards, 39, of the same address, have
been charged with possession of a
schedule I controlled substance with
intent to deliver (it) and possession
of drug paraphernalia, according to a
news release issued Monday, Aug. 10, by
Sheriff Ronnie Lawson.
Rogersville Police Chief Doug Nelson
said the Elkins Road case is believed to
be connected to the Aug. 6 arrest by his
officers of seven out-of-town residents at
a Rogersville motel where Alpha-PVP, or
gravel, was allegedly found.
“On Thursday, Aug. 6, the Hawkins
County Sheriff’s Office Narcotics Unit
executed a search warrant at the Elkins
Road address,” Lawson wrote. “During
the search, officers seized approximately
two pounds of an off-white rock-like
substance believed to be Alpha-PVP and
a large quantity of glass pipes used to
smoke the drug.
“Investigators
learned
during
the investigation that Richards was
unlawfully importing the drug from
a foreign country. Records at the
residence indicate the couple had spent
around $18,000 on the drug within the
last three days, prior to the execution
Warren Richards
Brandi Edwards
of the search warrant. Investigators also
located and seized in excess of $39,000
in cash from the residence.”
Alpha-PVP is a synthetic stimulant
drug of the cathinone class that was first
developed in the 1960s, according to the
news release. It is commonly known as
“gravel” or “flakka.” In July 2015, the drug
was moved to a schedule I controlled
substance under the Tennessee Drug
Control Act.
“Alpha-PVP is known to cause
hyperstimulation,
paranoia,
hallucinations and even death,” Lawson
wrote in the news release. “The drug has
an average street value in the region of
$140 per gram. The total street value of
the drug seized by the HCSO Narcotics
Unit had a value of approximately
$119,420.”
As of Monday, Aug. 10, Richards and
Edwards were being held in the Hawkins
County Jail without bond pending an
arraignment in Hawkins County General
Sessions Court. The investigation is
continuing.

TWRA seeks public input about wildlife plan
NASHVILLE – The Tennessee Wildlife Resources
Agency has released the draft 2015 Tennessee State
Wildlife Action Plan (2015 TN SWAP) and is seeking
public input. This feedback will help shape the final 2015
TN SWAP, which will be completed by October 2015.
The draft 2015 TN SWAP is available online at the
newly-launched Tennessee State Wildlife Action Plan
website www.tnswap.com. Written comments about the
2015 TN SWAP can be submitted through the website
via the following link www.tnswap.com/comments. The
comment period is open from Aug. 10 through Sept. 4.
The 2015 TN SWAP is a comprehensive, statewide plan
for conserving Tennessee’s fish and wildlife and their
vital natural habitats for future generations. It is part of a
nationwide effort by all 50 states and five U.S. territories
to develop conservation action plans and participate in
the federally authorized State and Tribal Wildlife Grants
(SWG) Program.
More than 125 technical experts and conservation
partners from 56 different agencies, organizations
and academic institutions have contributed to the
development of the 2015 SWAP. TWRA invites all
BUS from HT1
“It’s a tragic thing,” Bunch said of the
driver’s death. “But the other drivers in
the (Surgoinsville) area pitched in and
picked up as many of the kids from those
three routes as possible. “They didn’t get
them all, but they got as many as they
could.”
He noted that the deceased driver’s
husband and daughter are expected to
return to work after the funeral of their
wife and mother.
Bunch, who became the transportation
supervisor July 1, explained that the
Surgoinsville-area driver’s death made
an already bad situation worse for the
county school system’s transportation
department.
“We lost seven or eight drivers about
two weeks before school started,” Bunch
said, noting that those resigning left the
school system short drivers for the start
of school. In one case, a bus route in the
Mt. Carmel area was without a driver
before the death of the driver in the
Surgoinsville area, according to Bunch.
“We have 92 bus routes, with some
routes requiring more than one bus,”
Bunch said. Those routes serve 18
schools spread all over the county.”
Currently, he said, the school system
has about 90 bus drivers on staff. “We
need five or six drivers right now,” Bunch
said. “And we could actually use 10 to
cover field trips and everything.”
Bunch noted that the driver shortage
also means that he will be driving a bus
route between the Mooresburg area and
Rogersville Middle School daily until the
driver situation improves. In addition,
Bunch said, a member of his office staff,
who formerly drove a bus only in the
mornings, now is having to drive both
morning and evening routes and that a
bus mechanic has been pressed into duty
as a bus driver as well.
Other drivers are having to drive
multiple routes because of the shortage
of drivers, according to Bunch.
He noted that because of state
licensing and training requirements it
takes three weeks, or more, to get a driver
ready to actually step behind the wheel
of a school bus. Drivers also must take
and pass a Department of Transportation
physical examination.
Anyone who is interested in becoming
a school bus driver is asked to stop by the
the Hawkins County school bus garage at
1722 East Main Street, Rogersville, and
file an application. The phone number to
call for more information about becoming
a school bus driver is (423) 272-7135.

Letters to the Editor
Thank You
Dear Editor,
The Mooresburg Community Association (MCA)
would like to thank MAZON Foundation for their
generous grant funding of $10,000 to offset operating
expenses. The MAZON Foundation’s efforts to help
strengthen the community are greatly appreciated.
Every day the Association, located at 318 McNeil
Circle, in Mooresburg, serves as a gathering place for
the community. Seniors connect with one another
through congregate meals, exercise classes and other
community activities. The Meals in the Hills program,
the core of MCA’s services since it opened in 2001,
has been assisting seniors and disabled residents in
Hawkins and nearby counties. In 2014, the MCA, through
its network of services delivered 16,776 meals to seniors
and disabled neighbors at home. The community center
is a vibrant hub of activity and fellowship to isolated
neighbors. In 2014, the MCA provided 1,284 in house
meals, 118 recreational classes, 89 medical transports,
as well as opened an in-house food pantry, which served
674 residents. Those numbers are expected to increase
by 15 percent in 2015. Without these core programs, this
vulnerable population will face food insecurity issues
and possibly sporadic health care. Without the MCA,
these services would not exist.
A community meeting promoting information about
food insecurity-related and community concerns was
held in March 2015. The anti-hunger advocacy effort
was a part of a larger scope of the MAZON organization’s
commitment to end hunger. The results of the
Community Survey are available on the MCA’s website,
http://mooresburgcommunity.org/community-survey. MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger is a national
nonprofit organization working to end hunger among
people of all faiths and backgrounds in the United States
and Israel.
To learn more about how you can support the MCA’s
cause or to have a free speaker for civic, community
or church organizational meetings, please contact
Lisa Shiveler, www.mooresburg.org, via email at
