State early childhood report blasts Knox
PHOTO BY JAY NOLAN
The sky is the limit! These Jessie D. Lay preschool students
listen as teacher Becky Blevins reads to them. A new state
report says only 1 of 3 Knox County students are ready for
Kindergarten. Studies show students like these that complete Preschool or a Head Start are much more likely to
succeed academically than other children.
BY JAY NOLAN
Publisher
“Please, get your children into Preschool or
Head Start.” That plea
from Jessie D. Lay elementary principal Jeff Frost
points to one solution for
what is a major local problem. Our youngest children are unprepared for
school, according to state
figures.
In fact, the Kentucky
Governor’s office of early
childhood and Kentucky
Center for Education and
workforce statistics released a report this week
that paints a sad profile of
children in Knox County.
Specifically, it states:
•Two out of every three
children here that start
Kindergarten are rated not
ready. This is far below the
state average of 50%.
•In the academic/cognitive area, Knox children
are 7% below their state
peers.
In physical develop•
ment, we are 9% lower.
Only 41.9% are average or
above, compared to 50.1%
statewide.
“Kindergarten is now
an academic level,” Says
Becky Blevins, a preschool teacher on Frost’s
staff. She nods as fellow
preschool teacher Mary
Jane Callihan explains,
“The social interaction
skills, structural routine
and academic basics like
learning letters and numbers, all taught in preschool and head start, are
critical to early educational
success.” “Also, communications with other kids
and adults - language skills
- are key,” adds principal
Frost.
But while over 80% of
Knox county 4 year olds
qualify for admission to
Preschool or a head start
program (based on the
family meeting the financial screen for free or reduced lunch), many parents don’t send their child.

TRACKING LYNN CAMP Man dead following
Three-mile track to encompass both campuses
TRACK RENDITION COURTESY OF CODY DIXON
BY BOBBIE POYNTER
Editor
Following in the footsteps of
other Knox County schools that
have recently installed quarter-mile walking tracks, the Lynn
Camp community wants to build
one of its own. However, this
track, which will incorporate
both school campuses and much
more, will be a full three-mile, 8 to
10-foot wide, asphalt trail.
“We already have the farm, the
playground expansion, the new
gym and even the older track at
the elementary school,” said Lynn
Camp Principal Anthony Pennington. “We want to tie the two
campuses into one, to draw the
schools and the community together. The idea is to improve the
overall culture of the community.
You improve your culture, you
improve your academics.”
Gina Johnson, Community Education Director for Knox County
Schools is applying for a grant
from the Department for Local
Government to pay for the new
track. The approved grant could
be up to a $10,000 matching grant,
which means the community will
have to match whatever amount
the state approves.
The idea is for the track to be
more than just a walking track. It
will be a shared use track, encompassing bicycles, skateboards,
runners, baby strollers and will
also be handicapped accessible.
The grant application will include
money for signs, rest areas, and
at least one water fountain and
restroom.
“This is a great way to use the
track for multi-purposes,” said
Lynn Camp Coach David Bullard.
“Originally, we had plans to make
a cross-country track around the
two schools. This is even better.
You do it for cross-country and
everything else would fit. We can
even incorporate the track into
our Project Fit program.”
The three-mile track will run

What looked like a pleasant Monday afternoon stroll

be so much more. Debby

Below is a list of the good
and not-so-good points the
group observed during its

• Need crosswalks added.
• Need street repair on Liberty Street next to Thelma’s

A Woodbine man was killed
Tuesday night when he was
thrown from his motorcycle
after colliding with an SUV on
Ky. 3436 in Knox County.
Twenty-one-year-old Michael
Caldwell was pronounced dead
at the scene near Dugger Cemetery Road.
The passenger on the motor-
cycle, 29-year-old Jamie Sibley,
who was also thrown clear following the impact, was airlifted
to the University of Tennessee
Medical Center.
Kentucky State Police Trooper Shane Jacobs, public affairs
officer at Post 10 in Harlan, said
the wreck occurred at 5:37 p.m.

The Knox County Clerk’s
Office will soon implement
what the Commonwealth
calls a time- and cost-saving
change in the vehicle registration system.
The new vehicle registration system is changing to
“print on demand” decals
for license plate renewals. Rather than stocking
booklets of preprinted
decals, the new decals will
be printed at the time of
registration.
“I’ve seen it, and the only
thing it does is replace the
books of stickers,” said
Knox County Clerk Mike
Corey. “We already have the
equipment, but nothing has
been set up yet. We understand it’s supposed to be up
and running by the end of
April.”
For the public, the most
noticeable change is that
decals will no longer be
color-coded by year. The
new decals will have
black lettering on a white
background. The year and
month of registration expiration will be in bold numbers, with the license plate
number associated with the
registered vehicle printed
on the bottom. The decals
are printed on the registration receipt with a special
feature that allows them to
be peeled off and applied to
a license plate.
Both Knox County Sheriff
Mike Smith and Barbourville
Police Chief Winston Tye,
up until now, say that as far
as they know, law enforcement is as yet unaware of
the change taking effect.
“We’ll adapt and do our
best,” said Sheriff Smith.
“The color coded tags were
a dead giveaway. Now, we’ll
have to depend on what we
find when we have reason
to run a tag.”
The registration receipt
also is changing appearance. Gone is the traditional blue and white paper.
Certificates now will be on
8 1/2-inch by 11-inch white
paper. Although the look is
different, information on the
certificate is the same.
The new decals and registration receipts are already
in use in several counties,
with full implementation in
all 120 counties expected by
the end of April. Customers
with the old registration
decals will keep them until
they expire.
“From the customer
standpoint, there will be
no difference,” said Corey.
People will not have to pay
any more or any less. There
will be no extra fees. The
assessment on the car will
not change.
The change to printon-demand decals and
registrations is part of a
comprehensive overhaul

Smiles, laughs, good
food, fellowship, entertainment, and awards filled
the evening of March 17
at the Patridge Room of
Union College. The annual GFWC Barbourville
Woman’s Study Clubs Interclub Dinner was held
with approximately 50 ladies in attendance. The
group was entertained
by Alex Peyton. Dinner of
tossed salad, Asiago chicken with pasta, grilled beef
tenderloin, oven-roasted
red skin potatoes, broccoli
spears, corn, rolls, chocolate mousse and lemon
meringue pie was provided by Union College food
service. Beth Callihan had
adorned the tables with
St. Patrick’s Day hats filled
with green and white dé-
cor and shamrock plants.
These were later given as
door prizes.
Special guest Chrissi
Cuel, Ninth District Governor, spoke to the group
about her special project of
assisting the Knox –Whitley Animal Shelter. Chris-
si shared that since the
shelter had burned in November of 2013 that many
things were needed. She
had helped to raise more
than $1,200 for the shelter. She also encouraged
adopting pets, donating
money and pet supplies,
and even volunteering to
go to the shelter and help
with pet care. Chrissi also
gave Club members information on the importance
of spaying.
Farmers’ Market: new home, new changes
BY BOBBIE POYNTER
Editor
It won’t be long before local farmers will begin selling
their fresh produce. And on
Thursday, May 7, the Knox
County Extension Office will
be the place to be. That’s the
day the Knox County Farmers’
Market will officially open at
its new location from 5-8 p.m.
From that week on, the market will be open every Thursday through Oct. 1.
On Thursday, March 19, the
Farmers’ Market Board of Directors held a vendor’s meeting at the Extension Office.
Sharon Spencer of the Kentucky Department of Agriculture gave the more than two
dozen prospective vendors
great ideas on for better market sales and how to make
their customers feel more
comfortable.
“The more comfortable
your customers feel, the lon-
ger they will stick around,”
said Spencer. She added,
“Customers are also drawn to
a colorful stand with produce
stacked at various levels, preferably tilted toward them so
they can see better.”
Spencer urged the vendors
to join Kentucky Proud, a free
program that advertises processed, grown, raised, packaged or manufactured goods
in Kentucky. Being a member
of the program affords farmers

Lane reductions necessary for bridge inspections
Special to the Mountain Advocate
The right or “slow” lane of
Interstate 75 northbound at
the Laurel-Whitley County
line (mile point 27.9) will be
closed on Tuesday, March 24,
from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. EDT for
bridge inspections.
Crews will also close the
right or “slow” lane of I-75
southbound at mile point 27.9
on the following day, Wednesday, March 25 from 9 a.m. to 3
p.m. EDT to complete the inspections.
Motorists are asked to use
caution when approaching
and traveling through the
work zone and be prepared
for possible delays due to the
lane closure.
Further, March 23-29 is
Work Zone Safety Awareness
Week and KYTC urges all
motorists to use extra caution and slow down in work

They could also apply to Appalachia Proud, for anyone
living in the specified area or
Homegrown by Heroes, a veterans-only program.
A big change for the Farmers’ Market, besides its new
home, is that this year patrons will be able to use debit, credit and even EBT cards
through the SNAP program.
Customers will swipe their
cards at a specified tent for a
certain dollar amount in exchange for an equal amount
of tokens, which can then be
spent throughout the market. The vendors will then
be reimbursed for the tokens
collected throughout the evening.
To help cover the operational and advertising costs to
run the market, vendors were
notified they will have to pay

A 10-year-old Rockholds
boy was killed Monday when
he was hit by a school bus.
The boy was scheduled to

Officials
with
Make-AWish’s Louisville office said
Jonathan A. Chatham, who
had previously won a battle
against Leukemia, wanted to
shop for electronic items, including an X-Box.
Heather Powers, who knew
the family through Pleasant
Grove Baptist Church, said
Chatham’s Leukemia had
been in remission for about a
year after two years of treatment at the University of Kentucky Cancer Center.
Powers recalled taking
Chatham and his family to
Lexington for his treatments,
explaining how well mannered Jonathan was.
“I will never forget after
chemo he always wanted to
go to Wendy’s and get two
junior bacon cheeseburgers,
chicken nuggets, and a big
frosty, but always ate every
bite of it,” Powers said.
“We are all just heartbroken,” she said.
Powers added that Jonathan enjoyed being outside.
When he couldn’t do that, he
could be found playing with
his Pokemon cards or playing
video games.
“They are pretty much in
shock,” Powers said of the
family.

R.I.P. Jonathan Chatham
The fourth-grade student
at Whitley North Elementary
School had just gotten off the
bus about 4:20 p.m. Monday
near his home on Ky. 779 with
three other children.
Kentucky State Police stated that as the bus began moving away from the stop, Chatham darted back in front of
it and was struck and killed.
Whitley County Coroner J.
Andrew Croley said it is unknown why Chatham crossed
back into the path of the bus.
Whitley County School officials identified the bus driver
as 33-year-old Amanda Woliver.
Woliver has driven a bus for
more than two years.
“During this time she has
driven an average of over 120
miles per day incident free
and has driven for numerous
field trips and extracurricular activities both during the
school day and after,” officials
stated.
Whitley County Schools
Transportation Director Bobby Blakley stated that Woliver’s training and physicals
are all up to date.
“Amanda has always been
a good employee,” Blakley
stated.
An investigation into the
bus, driver records, maintenance records and bus
inspection sheets by the
Kentucky Department of Education’s Pupil Transportation
Department has found everything to be in order.
Woliver has been placed on
paid suspension while Kentucky State Police complete
the investigation.
Police do not expect drugs
or alcohol were factors in the
accident.
Officials at the scene said
there were approximately 20
other children on the bus at
the time.
A second bus was brought
in to finish the route. Parents
and guardians were notified
and children were released
to their custody.
Whitley County Sheriff Colan Harrell, who was assisting
at the scene, was charged
with taking several of the students home, including one
that suffered a panic attack.
Whitley County Schools Superintendent Scott Paul and
other school system administrators also responded to the
scene. Classes for the Whitley
County School System were
canceled for Tuesday.
A grief counselor will ride
the bus on that route today.
In addition, there will be grief
counselors available at Whitley North Elementary.
Whitley County officials
said the grief counselors will
be available at the school for
as long as the students need
their services.
“The Whitley County
School District would like
to thank all those who have
offered their support and
services during this time of
mourning and grieving,” officials stated. “Please continue to keep all those involved
in your thoughts and prayers
during the difficult days
ahead.”
KSP Trooper Craig Reed

scene by Troopers from Post

County Sheriff ’s Office, Whitley County EMS and Woodbine Fire Department.
responsible for the cleanup of
their general area.
The use of tobacco products will be strictly prohibited
in the area designated as the
Farmers’ Market.
All produce sold at the
Knox County Farmers’ Market
will be locally grown and no
sale of commercially made
products will be allowed.
As if there are not enough
good additions to the Farmers’
Market, this year there will be
the addition of craft booths,
as well as local non-profit organizations who may set up a
booth as a fundraising event.
“Everything has fallen into
place, and we’re expecting
a Farmers’ Market that will
be at least twice the size of
last year’s,” said Scot Clouse,
marketing manager for the
Farmers’ Market. “It’s a win
for the farmers and the community as well.”

Kathryn Engle spoke for the
board as she told the vendors
that the Knox County Farmers’
Market has incorporated into
a non-profit organization this
year.
“We want to build on the
success of last year,” she said.
There will be a limit as to
how far vendors can come
to set up at this year’s market. There was no limit at last
year’s market, since organizers had no idea how many
vendors would show. But, this
year is a different story. Organizers are confident there are
plenty of local farmers to fill
the space.

President Grant Baker.

project at the first Barbourville Mainstreet/Downtown Revitalization meeting.
BY MICHAELA MILLER
For the Mountain Advocate
A diverse group of people,
including business owners,
organization representatives, community leaders,
farmers, and town residents, all came to the library
Tuesday for the first Downtown Revitalization meeting
of the year.
Guest speaker Ethan
Hamblin, from Gays Creek,
Ky, talked about InVision
Hazard, a project created
for the city’s downtown
revitalization. Hamblin
discussed organizations in
Hazard, such as the Appalachian Arts Alliance and
Pathfinders of Perry County,
that have come together to
make the project work.
Hamblin is a graduate
from Berea College with
a degree in Appalachian
Studies. “New York didn’t
need my talents, but Hazard
did,” Hamblin said as he
explained why he returned
home after college. Tourism
Director Denise Wainscott
invited Hamblin to the
meeting in the hopes that
Barbourville will adopt
some of the same ideas.
Hamblin invited everyone
to an event in Hazard that
lets people from the Appalachian region experience
downtown revitalization
efforts and learn what made
them successful. The event
will take place June 3, from
10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The next meeting will be
held April 21, at noon with
a location to be announced

“We’ll be working with both
the city and the community,
and if we need to go out and
pick up some paint brushes,
then that’s what we’ll do. The
mayor is already on board.
He said he will help with the
crosswalks.”

Can Snail Mail get any slower? Yes, it can.
Consumers all across
Kentucky are about to
be penalized by the United States Postal Service.
Why? Because the USPS
has already implemented plans that will soon
close every major automated mail-processing
facility in the state!
And despite what postal officials put on their
briefing charts to Congress, here in the real
world, when processing
facilities close, it takes
longer for your mail to
be delivered.
Not that long ago, the
US Post Office moved
our local SCF bulk
mail-processing center
from London to Knoxville. Mail processing
times locally went from
1 day to 2- 3 days officially. But what really
happened? “Hundreds
of area customers have
called and canceled
their subscription. I have
multiple customers complaining it takes them a
week to get their mail
now,” said Mollie Hale,
circulation manager at
the Mountain Advocate
in Barbourville.
Sadly, it’s not just
newspapers that are impacted. The local utility
company tells me they
also have seen the number of customers paying
late increase dramatically since the processing
center moved to Knoxville.
From the
Publisher
Jay Nolan
jnolan@mountainadvocate.com
Longer mail processing times hurt everyone.
They can cause your
credit card payment,
utility bill, or other
mailed payment to be
late. And we all know
how expensive late fees,
late charges and interest
penalties are, especially to folks on a fixed
income and who can’t
afford or have no access
to broadband Internet
service. Legal clients
and their attorneys also
are at risk if mail is not
delivered promptly.
Still, the USPS has
already stripped automated mail processing
equipment from a lot
of other cities besides
London. Bowling Green,
Glasgow and others
have been closed. My
newspaper colleagues
there say they saw similar results.
Now the plan is to
completely “gut” Kentucky of any processing
centers. Lexington’s
functions will go to
Cincinnati, Ohio. Louisville mail will ship to
Evansville in Indiana for
processing.
That’s why I and several other Kentucky Press
Associate leaders trav-
eled to Washington, DC
last week. We explained
this to staff members in
Senator Mitch McConnell’s office, Congressman Hal Rodgers and
his staff, and to staff for
Congressman Ed Whitfield exactly how this
will hurt Kentucky.
They asked us to get
“specific examples.”
So, I am asking for
your help. Can you send
me a “specific example”
of when your mail was
delivered multiple days
after the postmark? Has
late delivery cost you
money? Is timely mail
service important? What
do you think?

Letters to the Editor
Inmate misses
hometown
Hello, I just wanted to
let you know I’ve been a
loyal subscriber of your
paper for years. I’m currently in a federal prison
away from Kentucky. I was
raised in Brown’s Branch.
When I get the paper here,
a lot of people from big
areas say, “Man, that’s a
small paper.”
I say, “Can you say you
know where all of these
places are?” I can even
look at the arrests and
say I know fifty percent
of the people arrested.
I say this is my town.
You guys have all those
great officials there, like
Mike Corey, Gilbert Holland, and Bill Oxendine,
great people that go out
of their way to do their
job.
I loved those columns
you used to print, like
back when 25, 50, 100
years ago, and the ones
where you do a story
on a really old photo
somewhere in the Knox
county area.
I always wished
you would do one on
Brown’s Branch or
“Brown’s Hollow” (as
most people know it).
I just want to say I’m
proud of my state, proud
of my county, and I miss
it more and more everyday.
I made some mistakes
late in life and I’ve paid
for them to my county.
I’m sorry, and I ask for
a second chance to live
there and be a positive
role model for our future
generations.
I love your paper, it’s
the highlight of my week.
Thanks,
JIMMY BROWN

For the Mountain Advocate
Corbin Police are asking
for the public’s help to find
the individuals who broke
into Sav-Rite Pharmacy in
Corbin Sunday morning
and made off with a bin full
of narcotics.
Corbin Police Detective-Lt. Rusty Hedrick said
the two masked individuals
are believed to be white
males, one about 6 feet
driver’s seat and goes to
the door where he uses a
crowbar to pry it open.
The other man, who has
been waiting with the back
seat door open, jumps out
with a blue Rubbermaid
tote and enters the store
while the driver remains
outside on lookout.
Hedrick said the driver
has a walkie-talkie in his
hand and is seen on video
using it several times.
“We think there may
have been a third individual
involved serving as a lookout somewhere nearby,”
Hedrick said.
Video inside the store
shows the other man busting open a locked cabinet
containing narcotics and
cleaning it out into the tote.
“He is in and out in about
three minutes,” Hedrick
said.
Once outside, the men
jump back into the vehicle
and drive off east on Masters Street toward U.S. 25E.
The license plate, even
the state, is not visible in
the video.
Hedrick said his investigation has turned up three
similar burglaries within the
last three months.
The first occurred on Jan.
7 in Florence, Ala.
The second occurred in
Clarksville, Tenn. on Feb. 4.
The most recent was Feb.
26 in Lexington.
In January 2014, Stephanie’s Down Home Pharmacy was burglarized in a
similar manner.
The getaway vehicle in
that burglary was a Chrysler 300 with spoked wheels.
Anyone with information
is asked to contact Corbin
Police at 528-1122. Callers
may remain anonymous.

KYLE REEL
Knox County Deputy Keith Liford received
a call Tuesday of men
wearing hoodies carrying
items out of a residence
on KY 3438 in Cannon.
When Deputy Liford arrived at the scene he observed Kyle Reel, 21, of
Barbourville, and Jason
Bailey, 34, of Barbourville, coming out of the res-
idence carrying property
items.
Deputy Liford arrested
Kyle Reel and Jason Bailey charging them with
second degree burglary
and second degree criminal trespass. Both men
were lodged in the Knox
County Detention Center.
The investigation is
continuing.
PREPARATION AND PLANNING
When it comes to planning
for an appointment, dinner,
event, or a situation I am a mixture of activities. One part of me
begins immediately to organize
things in my head from what is
necessary to make this happen
to what would be really neat to
make a part of this ‘planning’
that isn’t a requirement. The
other mixture of my activities
is a do nothing attitude. Just
sit back and relax, things will
take care of themselves, there
is no need to plan or make
any arrangements. Depending
upon which of these two attitudes we choose to embrace
we have no doubt had enough
experience with both to know
they have a different impact totally.
Charles R. Swindoll said that,
“Life is 10% what happens to
you and 90% of how you react.
“This statement represents a
decision that I am suggesting is
made long before we find ourselves at the hour of decision. If
you and I live our lives without
any fore thought about possibilities, opportunities, choices,
solutions or answers, then our
odds of displaying the appropriate attitude for the situation
we face is greatly diminished.
Planning is an important part
of life and more especially it is
our preparation for planning.
Preparation is that which we
do before hand. Preparation
considers options and impacts
in addition to outcomes and
follow-ups. Preparation is the
key to all our future decisions
and only once time has passed
are we able to evaluation, look
back and reflect upon the manner and way we lived. Life I am
suggesting is about planning
and planned reactions help us
to remain stable when all the
planning around us seems to
have disappeared.
In November of 2014 I faced
a decision about preparation
and planning. In life I have
never planned or prepared for
a stubbed toe. Honestly I cannot even remember the last
FAMILY PRACTICE
Barbourville Family Health Center
Until
Then
Rev. Tim H. Mills
person I spoke with about a
stubbed toe situation. Seems
like I can remember my parents yelling at when I was a
growing up as a child, running
through the house, or on the
porch to be careful or I might
stub my toe. Reflecting back
on that childhood memory I
cannot remember my parents
having a follow-up conversation about this either. Maybe I
missed that because I continued to run and play? It’s possible this happened. No matter
what the facts are regarding
my memory or the possibilities of that moment back then,
planning for a stubbed toe never made it to my personal radar
of a danger zone.
Planning for all the possible individual dangers one
might face in life would be an
exhausting work that I doubt
could ever be completed because the list would be ever
growing. My parents were
successful in teaching me in
a broad way about preparation for planning and the merits of the practice of planning.
Principles my parents taught
included personal responsibility, ideas of fate, destiny, leadership, faith and the difference
between quantity and quality
of life. These lessons learned
over the years became in time
my foundation. What was my
parents planning and preparation became my tools for reaction to life experiences, which
includes even a stubbed toe.
Events,
situations,
moments and even things in life
can quickly get out of hand
and leave us spinning around
seemingly out of control. My
preparation and planning for
life includes the fact that I am
not in control. Life is a vapor
of time that quickly passes.
DENTIST
215 N. Allison Ave., Barbourville, KY 40706
Our best planning is to be prepared for immediate changes
that I see as opportunities to
demonstrate faith not hopelessness. Despair is no road I
travel because the Bible says
“there is a time and purpose
for everything,” which includes
sickness and no answers. The
Bible also says that “He does
all things well in His time” and
that is His planning not mine. If
living life is 10% of what happens to me then I personally
can live with that percentage.
Agreeing that 90% of life is
how I react to it means that I
cannot afford to get this part
of my life wrong. I believe the
words found in the Book of Romans 8:28. My preparation and
planning includes the fact that
where He, Jesus is concerned,
I don’t have to worry or fret because I choose His plan over
mine every time.

Volunteers needed to help build home

Leaky camper where John and his
daughter are currently living until
their new home is built.
“LIVE-IT Knox County
will launch its first project
on April 15-17,” Jeremiah
Evans, Executive Director, announced. “We will
build a small ‘efficiency
home’ for an elderly man
and his adopted daughter.
For the last two years,
they have been living in a
camper on his son’s property. Unfortunately, the
camper leaks horribly and
has accumulated black
mold, creating a very unsafe living condition. Due
to the mold, they (along
with seven other people)
are currently staying in
his son’s home. A glance
at his home will tell you
that it was not designed to
hold nine people.”
Evans added, “John is
known for being faithful to
his local church. He has
one of the most tender
servant hearts I have ever
come across. He didn’t
ask for us to do this, but I
know he needs it. We plan
make it just big enough
to maintain him and his
daughter. She can finish
up her last year of school,
and he can finish out the
remainder of his days.
According to Evans,
John has recently found
out that he has cancer,
along with other medical
concerns. Because of his
age, these are making life
and survival more difficult
for him.
“We are simply burdened...burdened to take
action and do something
God-sized for John and
his daughter,” Evans
declared. “We are going
to build this one way or
another. We do need the
community to help us.
This house build will be
the first of many. If you
feel moved to volunteer to
help us work, let me know
and you can become part
of our amazing missional
opportunity.
The build dates are
scheduled from April
15-17. Volunteers need to
sign up by April 6.

For the Mountain Advocate
Nearly 100,000 members strong, the General
Federation of Women’s
Clubs are united in dedication to volunteer community service. While
diverse in age, interests,
and experiences, all
clubwomen are united by
a desire to create positive
change in their communities.
Founded in 1890,
GFWC’s roots can be
traced back to 1868 when
Jane Cunningham Croly,
a professional journalist,
attempted to attend a dinner at an all-male press
club honoring British
novelist Charles Dickens.
Croly was denied admittance based upon her
gender, and in response,
formed a woman’s club—
Sorosis. In celebration of
Sorosis’ 21st anniversary
in 1889, Jane Croly invited
women’s clubs throughout the United States
to pursue the cause of
federation by attending a
convention in New York
City. On April 24, 1890, 63
clubs officially formed
the General Federation of
Women’s Club by ratifying
the GFWC constitution.
Even though our local
GFWC Clubs do not date
back to 1890, we do have
ladies who have served
their community for many
years through our local
Woman’s Study Club. At
a recent joint meeting
of Barbourville’s three
Woman’s Study Clubs, the
following people were
recognized for their many
years of dedicated service
to the organization and
thus in turn to our community. Following is a list
of local members who
have served more than
50 years and the year that
they joined the Federation: Elizabeth Davies,
1938; Jane Blair, 1952;
Barbara Black, 1953;
and Carolyn Congleton,
1962. Members who have
served more than 30
years are: Jane Skidmore, 1978; Judy Wilson,
1978; Janet Hyde, 1978;
Sharon Boggs, 1979; Ethel
Stark, 1979; and Paula
Frase, 1982.

Barrett joins Knox Extension Service
Danielle Barrett
BY BOBBIE POYNTER
Editor
After graduating in
May 2014 from the
University of Kentucky with a degree
in dietetics, Danielle
Barrett, 24, of Gray,
returned home in
January to work as a
Family and Consumer
Science Agent at the
Knox County Extension Office. Barrett
joins Wayne Kirby,
the Knox County Ag
Agent for Agriculture
and Natural Resources and Renata
Farmer, Extension
Agent for 4-H/Youth
Development.
“An extension
agent is simply a
UK-sponsored teacher who ‘extends’ out
into the community
to instruct the public
in his or her specific
area of expertise, “
Barrett explained.
Barrett’s expertise
affords her the chance
to work in a variety of
capacities at the extension office, including
food safety, canning, as
well as family finance
and budgeting. But
that’s just the beginning of her duties.
“I love Appalachia,” she said. “I’m a
community servant,
and I’m here to help
people.”
True to her word, on
the second Monday
of the month at 10
a.m., Barrett holds a
free repurposing class
called Make it Monday,
where the participants
bring in an unused
household item and
make something new
out of it. Beginning
March 23, she started a
Lunch and Learn food
demonstration and nutrition class. These free
classes will continue
at 1 p.m. on the fourth
Monday of the month.
Occasionally, Barrett
will schedule an
interesting day trip that
is open to the general
public.
Barrett heads up a
new group, Pinterest
Pals, a personalized
health and wealth program at 6 p.m. the third
Thursday of the month.
Each meeting includes
a Pinterest-inspired
activity.
Barrett also works
with the Redbud Trails
Quilting Guild the
third Tuesday of the
month at 10 a.m. and
the Town and Country
Homemakers at 1 p.m.
the third Thursday.
“I have a wonderful group of ladies,”
said Barrett. “They’ve
adopted me into their
family. They are very
special to me already.”
As if her schedule is
not busy enough, Barrett keeps her extension Facebook site upto-date with listings of
upcoming classes and
organization meetings,
not to mention daily
tips for the family. She
has a monthly newsletter that can either be
accessed on the extension office’s website at
knox.ca.uky.edu or you
can call her at the extension office and have
a copy mailed directly
to you.
Barrett and husband
James, an IT support
tech for the University
of Kentucky Hospital,
are newlyweds who
will soon celebrate
their first anniversary.
Anyone wishing
to learn more about
the extension office’s
classes or day trips, the

It is not often that you get to celebrate with
someone who is turning one hundred four
years old, but that is exactly what a large
group of Barbourville Study Club Women
did recently. Ms. Elizabeth Davies has a
birthday on April 19. She was honored with
a birthday song and a cake at the recent
GFWC Barbourville Woman’s Clubs Interclub Dinner. Ms. Davies thanked people
and said “Oh how nice!” Barbourville is
thankful to have this special citizen still attending civic club meetings.
New non-profit to help repair homes
BY DAVID STEWART
For the Mountain Advocate
Jeremiah Evans, (former youth pastor and
founder of Connection
Point Church) is the
“point” person bringing
the idea of LIVE-IT to the
Knox County area.
“I have been in this
community for seven
years and am aware
of some heart piercing
truths,” said Evans. 38,000
people live here, and 34%
are found to be struggling below the poverty
line. The median income
earners in this area are
not very far from that either. That’s almost 13,000
people. Digging a little
deeper, I found that 29%
or almost 3,800 of these
people are over the age of
65. Although, 85% of those
3,800 people own their
own home, they simply
are unable to afford upkeep and maintenance.
“Now, add this to the
fact that 19% of the county is made up of single
parent households, (60%
of them are female.)
They, too, fall under the
poverty line.
“Now…why are all
these percentages and
statistics important,” he
asked. “Because, there is
a new non-profit organization coming to town
known as LIVE-IT. This
organization focuses on
repairing homes and uplifting the lives of the very
people revealed in the
heart of those statistics.
“In other words, LIVEIT becomes aware of the
need, then communicates with local churches,
business and individuals
concerning the need.
LIVE-IT then organizes, funds and helps to
provide manpower to
accomplish meeting
these needs. LIVE-IT can
become a phenomenal
community builder!”
Jeremiah Evans, Executive Director of LIVE-IT
Knox County, has a huge
dream and desire for
Knox County: “Imagine
living in a county where
churches, businesses,
and individuals come
together to make a difference for those in need by
LIVE-IT volunteers help to repair a home.
simply ‘loving their neighbors.’” LIVE-IT simply
becomes the central hub
that unifies the community to take physical action
to meet the needs of
those in our community.
“We envision communities where everyone
loves their neighbors
and there are no needs
PHOTO SUBMITTED
among them,” said Evans.
In order to enhance
the financial opportunity
to serve this community,
LIVE-IT also will be opening a LIVE-IT Thrift Store
on Knox Street across
the Knox County funeral
home. This thrift store will
be sustained by the community donating items to
be sold in order to gain
proceeds to be used for
repair projects.
Evans said, “In order
for LIVE-IT to thrive and
be successful, it will need
the community to jump
on board. Here are some
ways individuals and
groups can LIVE-IT with
us:”
1.Look for those in
need within your community and send them
to us to apply for help.
We prioritize needs by
widows and orphans,
single moms, elderly,
handicapped, and veterans. All applicants must
be low income. The need
can be home repair, yard
work, or other things they
may need help with. We
are not going to be able to
pay any of their bills.
2.Invest by giving or
donating to LIVE-IT. Thrift
store items: clothes, furniture, appliances, knickknacks, kitchen cooking
utensils, electronics, as
well as any home building
materials.
3.Volunteer! Volunteer
your time on a project,
helping in the thrift store.
Also, you can volunteer to
be a part of a store launch
team to help ready the
store for its opening!
4.Encourage others to
come along with you.
Share about LIVE-IT to
help get the word out. If
you are a church, club or
business and would like
for us to come share how
you can get involved and
help, please contact us.
5.Also, become a
partner with us by being
a monthly donor or by
giving a one-time charitable gift. All donations will
be accounted for and are
fully tax deductible.
An unnamed supporter
mused, “It is so nice to
know that by donating to
this local non-profit organization that the proceeds
will go right back into this
local community.”
Readers can contact
Jeremiah Evans by calling
(606) 622-1336 or
emailing him at jevans@
live-it.tv.
“Any form of support,
will be put to great use,”
said Evans.

Lady Wildcats take control
Medlin leads Lynn Camp to first-ever All-A victory
BY DENNIS MILLS
The Lynn Camp Lady Wildcats
faced the Barbourville Tigers
on Monday night in the opening
round of the All-A Softball Tournament. The Wildcats defeated the
Tigers 9-3 earning them the right
to face Williamsburg in round two
of the tournament.
LaKylla Medlin pitched a complete game going wire to wire
while giving up only three walks
and striking out 11 Tigers in seven
innings.
The Wildcats jumped out to
an early lead scoring six runs in
the first three innings. A two-run
single by Karley Rickett and a
two-run triple by Summar Gregory
during the first inning and a tworun single by Medlin in the second
inning supplied the early offense
for the Wildcats.
Barbourville rallied in the bottom of the fourth inning behind
a two out, two RBI long drive to
center field to cut the Lynn Camp
lead to four at 7-3.
Taylor Logan hit a shot down
the first base line to put runners
at the corners but the rally stalled
when Lynn Camp’s Medlin struck
out Barbourville Junior Paije Tye to
end the fourth inning.
Barbourville held Lynn Camp
in check during the fifth inning.
Pitcher Taylor Logan struck out
Lynn Camp’s Brandy Hall and
gave up two hits before a base
running error by Kourtnie Mills
ended the inning.
Lynn Camp’s LaKylla Medlin singled in the top of the sixth inning
followed by a walk for Destiny Hill
to put runners on first and second.

MONTREAT, N.C. - The
Union College baseball
team took an early lead
and never looked back in
a 7-3 victory at Montreat
(N.C.) on Sunday, as the
Bulldogs completed a
three-game sweep of the
weekend Appalachian
Athletic Conference series between the schools.
With the victory, Union
has now won six straight
to push their record on
the year to 18-5 overall,
8-1 in the AAC, as the
Bulldogs are now tied
atop the AAC standings
with Tennessee Wesleyan. Montreat fell to 7-20,
0-10 in the AAC with the
losses.
In the first inning of the
ballgame, things could
not have gotten off to a
better start for Union, as
they pushed three runs
across the plate against
Montreat starter Dakotah
Thomas to take an early
3-0 lead.
In the frame, John Wilson (SR/Manchester, Ky.)
had an RBI single that
knocked home Justin Elder (SR/Seven Mile, Ohio)
(who began the game
with a leadoff walk), then
Zach Dillman (SR/Cincinnati, Ohio) brought home
Nelson Price(SR/Burkesville, Ky.) on a fielders
choice, making the score
2-0 in Union’s favor.
With two away, Tyler
Young (JR/Manchester,
Ky.) roped an RBI double
to right center, scoring
Dillman all the way from
first base, and giving
Union a three-run edge
early.

showcase the people and
environment of southern
and eastern Kentucky
during a special episode of
“Kentucky Life,” which will
be broadcast this Saturday,
March 28, 8 pm ET, 7 pm
CT.
The 30-minute show
will explore the work
of Eastern Kentucky
PRIDE, an initiative
started in 1997 by U.S.
Congressman Hal Rogers
and the late Brig. General
James Bickford, former
Secretary of the Kentucky
Natural Resources and
Environmental Protection
Cabinet. Their vision
was to encourage
citizens to take personal
responsibility for protecting
the environment and to
provide the education and
resources they need to do
so.
Host Dave Shuffett will
meet some of the many
partners that make the
organization a success
and get hands-on along
the way. The program
follows action during
several PRIDE initiatives
and captures the fun as
school children discover
environmental education
in nature’s classroom – the
great big outdoors.
Shooting locations
include:
•Cumberland
County’s 2013 Dale Hollow

The Vibe 5 Glow Run
coming to London
Raising money to benefit Kenyan relief
Special to the Mountain Advocate
The Vibe 5 Glow Run , a
5K management company from East Tennessee,
announced plans today to
hold a benefit race for Kenyan relief on April 18th 2015
at the Levi Jackson State
Park in London, Kentucky.
According to the race
director, Randy Brock, the
majority of the proceeds
will be donated to a regional medical team who travels regularly to the African
nation to provide free medical care as well as donate
shoes and clothing. “We
are just happy to have this
opportunity to help people
in need and do something
we love at the same time.
When you look at some
of the pictures the team
brought back, you realize
how much they struggle
and how blessed we are to
live in this country,” Brock
said.
Pineville native Shannon Smith, owner and
co-founder of the primary
race sponsor Anesthesia
Associates Of Appalachia,
is one of the members of
the Kenyan relief team. She
said volunteering in Kenya
has changed her perspective on giving and life in
general. “We don’t realize
how fortunate we are to
have clothes on our backs,
shoes to wear and food to
eat whenever we want it.
We are thrilled to partner
with The Vibe 5 and hope
this race is a huge success,”
Smith said.
The Vibe 5 Glow Run will
be held at the Levi Jackson
State Park in London on
Saturday April 18th. Registration will begin at 6pm
and the race is scheduled
to kick off around eight pm.
In addition there will be a
12 x 12 mega screen, glow
after party, and best glow
costume contest. Kids age
12 and under run free with

institutions and is designed to attract
students of color, providing each with
information about the college, its
programs and financial aid options,

Hidden Pictures
Is it a high tide or a
flash flood or will it be a
disastrous flood? Lenda-Hand Center is located
in the Stinking Creek
flood plain, so we are
accustomed to rising
water. We even have
markers and names for
the various danger water
problems. There are
times when the creek is
full, which means it is up
to the level of the field.
Then it becomes a “high
tide” when it breaks over
the low places along the
bank, which is usually an
entry way into the creek.
When it comes sneaking into the bottom of the
field, we know the Cumberland River is full and
backs up Stinking Creek,
which then spills over
the bank coming up the
creek. We don’t mind
that so much as it usually
leaves a deposit of silt
and leaves that enrich
the soil. When the river
goes down, the water is
pulled rather gently out.
However, when the
creek breaks across the
bank from the upper
side the current is much
stronger and can be
quite destructive. It
builds up and the current gets stronger and
stronger, causing a “stalk
chaser” or a “gully washer,” which can cause
considerable trouble as
it literally chases everything in its path and
doesn’t hesitate to form
new paths or gullies. In
the 50’s and 60’s before
we had roads up out of
the creeks we just knew
we would probably
encounter large rocks
or washout in our paths
which would have to
be dealt with before we
Stinking Creek

could navigate our vehicle through. That which
we call a “flood” when it
washes our bridges out
and road banks away
would be a “Big Flood.”
I have encountered two
huge floods in 1957 and
again in 1977. I have
heard about the flood
in 1946 that started the
movement toward flood
walls around our towns.
We have had many more
floods than those which
were destructive.
In the 70’s before we
had mandatory garbage
pickup, a flood would
decorate our barb fences
and low hanging branches with disposable
diapers—we called it the
Stinking Creek Spanish
moss. What fun that was
to clean up. I guess that
was a sign of progress
but we did not find it a
welcome change.
A few weeks ago
during that wintry
spell, all of upper Stinking Creek lost our county
water supply. Several
groups, like Red Cross
and the county officers,
brought truck loads of
plastic water bottles and
gave them out free to
anyone that did not have
access to good drinking
and cooking water.
I remember being
thankful for the water,
but our suppliers brought
thousands of those little
plastic bottles. I made
the comment, “Just wait
until the first high water
and we will be blest by
those plastic bottles in
our pasture.” A few days
later we did have a big
tide that turned into a
good sized flood. However, I have yet to see
many of those bottles
in the field; maybe they
washed farther down. Or
better still, maybe people
above us did not discard
them where they would
wash away. Then I could
say “Praise the Lord!”
