Publisher's note

Clarksville Living Magazine is published and distributed monthly at over 180 locations across Clarksville, Fort Campbell, Oak Grove and surrounding areas.

I am not one to wish my days away; but, after one of the hottest Julys in history, I think I can safely say I am ready for fall! Or at the very least, cooler temps…I mean, can we even get like a full week that doesn’t have a heat index over 100? We’ve packed a lot into this issue: an interview with Coach Ted Young, (by Tony Centonze, page 18) A review of The Mailroom; Downtown Clarksville’s latest in fine dining, (page 14) And an exciting backstage peek at singer Daniel Christian’s amazing performance at Carnegie Hall; by Paige Eisemann on page 8. And last but not least, don’t forget to check out the calendar of events starting on page 22 -- there's plenty of fun stuff to do on in our amazing community. For those of you that are getting ready for back to school, I hope it’s a smooth and stress free transition! I include myself in this as my eighteen-year-old son starts college this year. I hope you are able to enjoy the rest of your summer and stay as cool as possible. Leaves will be turning soon, and Pumpkin Spice everything will be here before you know it.

touching energy. The entire performance was a testament to each and every performer and the years they have spent dedicated to practice, practice, practice. Once the show was over, performers and guests were treated to a dinner cruise on the Hudson River that circled the Statue of Liberty. There was great celebration, not only because of the incredible performance but also due to thankfulness for the return of such performances and gatherings after the pandemic slowdowns of the past few years. Speaking with Daniel’s family during the dinner, I was moved by how clearly his love for music has shaped his life. It brought into focus how extraordinary his performance onstage at Carnegie Hall truly was. Daniel’s sister, Lea Scheuren of Brentwood, TN, said “Watching him sing on that stage, I could remember seeing him perform at APSU.

G U EST COLUMN

By Stephani Cook

M

y husband and six-year-old son were tossing the baseball in our front yard as I watched from the porch when her car pulled into our driveway. The car was unfamiliar, and for a moment we wondered what she might be selling or if she was lost. As she stepped from the car, her friendly voice and warm smile eased any concerns we had. She shared that her family was new to the neighborhood and that she had a son she suspected was close to the same age as ours. As a military brat (her words) she was accustomed to introducing herself to new people because her family had moved numerous times during her lifetime, and she always seemed to be the “new girl.” She asked about little league baseball and school activities, as well as churches and community gatherings. Once she realized my husband and I had lived in Clarksville all our lives, she knew she had hit the jackpot for the information she sought. What we did not know that day that we now know twenty years later is that we would all become the best of friends. We would spend so much time together that we would feel much more like family than friends. We would laugh together, cry together, pray together, grieve together, travel together, and share all the ups and downs life has to offer. We would sit together for too many ball games to count, awards assemblies, graduations, baptisms, dance competitions, recitals, confirmations, funerals, and weddings. And now, I can assure you that she knows far more about our city than we ever will. Her technique of meeting new people did not stop with us. It is something to behold. I am so grateful she chose our driveway that day. THAT’S A NICE STORY, BUT DOES IT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH ME?

12

Much has changed in twenty years. Finding community may be more difficult and more important than ever. As we continue to recover from a pandemic that had even the most introverted among us isolated for far too long, experts are sharing that loneliness and depression continue to rise at alarming rates. This is not surprising given that we can work from home, worship from home, learn from home, and have everything we could need delivered to our front doors within hours. We subscribe to numerous platforms of social media that fool us into believing we are far more connected than we are. We carry personal forms of entertainment in our hands or pockets during most of our waking hours. We sit at our dinner tables and in our living rooms alongside one another, but rarely engage. Like lobster being boiled alive, we do not realize what is happening to us.

passively hoped that our paths would cross someday. She could have sat in the back of rooms waiting to be invited like middle school girls and boys at their first school dance. Chances are that eventually she would have made a friend or two, but then again, maybe not. Instead, she took the bull by the horns and sought out every opportunity she could to meet new friends and enjoy our city.

WHY DOES IT MATTER?

Did I mention my husband and I have lived here for more than 50 years? We knew Clarksville when there really was nothing to do. I’m pretty sure he said it, I said it, our kids have said it…it’s been said for years.

In the 1940’s, a behavioral psychologist by the name of Abraham Maslow, developed a theory that has stood the test of time around the hierarchy of human needs. At the base of the triangle, he identified physiological needs as most important (to include food, water, and shelter). Sitting right above those needs he identified security needs followed by the need for belonging. Although we may not need others to survive in the same way we need food and water, we do need community for security and belonging. Strong relationships and community are tied to better physical and mental health, longer lives, more accountability, a sense of purpose, self-worth, and the feeling of belonging just to name a few. WHAT CAN WE DO TO BUILD COMMUNITY? I realize that personalities differ and being so forward as to stop in a stranger’s driveway to say hello is not for everyone. But I hope none of us misses the intention behind my friend’s actions. She could have

Clarksville Living

More than ever, finding community will take intention. In the book “Find Your People” the author, Jennie Allen, challenges her readers to “go first” when trying to make friends. In other words, take the initiative. Be the inviter. Plan the gatherings. Reach out first…just like my friend did. Be intentional. THERE’S NOTHING TO DO IN CLARKSVILLE

I would like to argue that it is no longer the case. In fact, included on the last few pages of this publication are dozens of events and activities for you to consider. And if at first you don’t succeed, try, and try again. I would also like to highlight a few more ideas and opportunities in the hopes that if these don’t interest you, they will at least spark ideas of your own. 1. VOLUNTEER Nothing brings people together faster than a worthy cause they all agree on. Organizations like YaiPak, Manna Café, Loaves and Fishes or Big Brothers/Big Sisters are always looking for more volunteers. These are great ways to meet new like-minded folks. Also, I can almost guarantee that your child’s school would

several until you find the one for you.

2. FAITH BASED EVENTS Many churches and faith organizations offer regular events that are open to the whole community (and not just members). A few coming up this month include: MomLife – MomLife is available at several churches in our area and groups meet regularly to encourage and build community with moms of all ages and stages. Registration for the 22-23 year is open now. Visit momlife.org for more information and registration. Embrace/Man Church – Sponsored by Hilldale Baptist Church, Embrace is a quarterly event for women of all ages, while Man Church is a similar event for men. For more information visit yourhbc. info/ministries. On Purpose Live Event – Sponsored by On Purpose Coaching, On Purpose Live is a faith event for women of all ages featuring Christian Life Coaches as speakers. This year’s event is August 12th from 6-9 PM and the theme is “Making Good Choices when My Choices Aren’t Good.” For more information visit stephanicook.org/oplive. Small Groups/Life Groups – There are hundreds of small group or life group opportunities available through local churches. Do a little online research or visit a church to inquire. And don’t be afraid to try

“hello.” Many neighborhood HOA’s have an active Facebook page. Believe it or not, there is more that those can be used for than complaining about on street parking or speeding teenagers. Watch for neighborhood events that might interest you and get involved.

3. WORKOUT FACILITIES Are you into sports/fitness? There are gyms all over town that encourage community while getting your workout on! There are also leagues available to include everything from Pickleball to Judo. A few locally owned to consider are Prime Fitness, Grit Fitness and Wellness, Clarksville Athletic Club, L.I.F.F.E., or the Hilldale Family Life Center. Try something new…you never know where you might find your people.

I hope that by taking a few minutes to be mindful about your own community has encouraged you to keep trying. Not everyone will be your cup of tea, but don’t give up. We weren’t built to do life alone.

4. LIVE MUSIC, MOVIE OR TRIVIA NIGHTS Hopefully our weather will cool down soon and we can look forward to the many outdoor live events offered in Clarksville. Venues like Dock 17, Beachaven Winery, the River Club, Strawberry Alley, Old Glory Distillery, and the Downtown Commons are just a few. Enjoy Trivia Nights? Check out The Thirsty Goat, Tap House 57 or Blackhorse Pub and Brewery. And always keep an eye on the events sponsored by the City of Clarksville such as Movies in the Park, Summer Lights or Family Recreation Nights. Visit cityofclarksville.com for a full calendar. 5. LAST, BUT NOT LEAST, MEET YOUR NEIGHBORS To re-iterate an earlier point, go first. Say hello. Take over some cookies. Wave as they pass by. You never know when your new best friends may have moved into your neighborhood if you don’t start with

or months the anticipation has been growing. Visitors to the downtown area have watched the construction happening at 116 North 2nd Street, seeing the former U.S. Post Office building being brought back to life as it underwent renovation for the first time since it was built in 1935. Finally, the time has come! The Mailroom restaurant opened to the public on July 25 after several days of soft opening events. It was well worth the wait!

The landmark building has been restored to glory, providing a beautiful backdrop for local favorite restaurateur Wes Cunningham (co-owner of Strawberry Alley) to showcase an outstanding menu of delicious food and drink. Gleaming marble offsets the openness of the space, with shining floors and elegant lighting calling to mind the rich history contained within. The original Tennessee pink marble flooring of the Post Office lobby remained, and the Cunninghams worked hard to carefully restore it. They even returned to the same quarry in East Tennessee for materials to renovate this piece of Clarksville history. Every detail seems to have been selected to reflect the origins of the building, from pendant lighting

hen the Clarksville High School boys basketball team beat Memphis East 84 – 75 in the sectionals in March, the Wildcats advanced once again to the state tournament. For CHS, that means back-to-back tournament appearances in 2021 and 2022, and six appearances since CHS alum Ted Young took over as head coach of his alma mater.

Young says his height helped, with basketball, but playing the other sports is how he conditioned all year.

Young graduated from CHS in 1979. His father was a professor at APSU and his mother taught at Moore School. Education was always at the center of Young's life, but being tall (eventually 6'-8'') and athletic, at some point sports began to fill his schedule, yearround.

In 1977, CHS was a 3-year school. Young was honored to be able to start on the varsity team as a sophomore.

“When I played as a kid, sports were clearly aligned with the seasons,” Young said. “You played football in the fall, basketball in the winter, and baseball in the summer. I started Jr. Pro Football with the Colts. Duke Henderson got me started in basketball, and since I was taller they always wanted to move me up, but I wasn't coordinated. I was so thin I had to jump around in the shower to get wet.” Young's brother was four years older. They were playing in a league, “maybe at First Baptist Church,” he recalls. “I was ten and they were fourteen, that's a big difference. One day they needed a fifth. During the game they threw a long pass to me, one I had no way of catching. I can still see the coach. He looked at the other players and said, 'don't throw it to him'. That's when I said to myself, I'm going to have to get better or I'm not going to get to play sports.”

18

“My parents weren't coaches, so I had a lot of coaches who became influential paternal figures, that's something that continued my whole life,” Young said. “Quite often, they saw the potential in me before I did.”

“They had a really good team,” Young said. “I remember Barry Miller and Tyrone Ewing and the guys. I knew I was on the right track when I was allowed to play with those big fellows. I was too thin, back then, and needed to gain weight. So, inspired by the Rocky movies, I was eating six raw eggs every morning with a milkshake. I would not let my kids do that now,” he laughed. CHS won the district 2 out of the 3 years Young was there, but the team never got very far. Ben Fendley was the coach. CHS has only had three basketball coaches in its history. Fendley, Dick Hopper, and Ted Young. When Young was finished at CHS, he had options. He ended up at Vanderbilt, but Alabama, Duke, Stanford and Tennessee were trying to recruit him as well. “Alabama's C.M, Newton, Tennessee's Don DeVoe, and Duke's Mike Krzyzewski, who had just finished his first year all reached out to him.

Clarksville Living

“Coach K was standing right there,” Young said, as he pointed to the hallway behind him, while he sat in the CHS gym for this interview. “I finished the game and came out of the locker room, he walked up to me and said, 'Ted, my name is Mike Krzyzewski'. My mom said, 'what'? He said, 'everyone just calls me Coach K, ma'am' Young was interested in Marine Biology as a major, and Newton had that at Alabama, but Vanderbilt ended up being his choice. “Vanderbilt was the best choice,” Young said. “Mom and dad were all about Vanderbilt. They didn't want me on the east or west coast. They wanted to come see me play. That was a big part of it for them. It would have been great to be in one of those early classes with Coach K at Duke, but staying here close to friends and family was great. And, getting to know the Nashville community was a lot of fun. I made a lot of lifelong friendships there.” After his run at Vanderbilt, recruiters from West Germany Venezuela and Japan were making offers to Young. “At that time, there were only 22 teams in the NBA, each with 12 players, that's not a lot of opportunity,” Young said. “I had already guarded Dominique Wilkins, Sam Bowie, Charles Barkley and Dale Ellis. I knew I wasn't going to be quite at that level. Wilkins was the best player I ever guarded. I sought advice from Coach Newton, and he steered me toward Japan.”


Young said it was great living and playing in Japan. He played on the Isuzu Motors team for nearly a decade.

Next, Young partnered with Trent Knott to buy WJZM radio. He saw that as a way to honor his commitment of giving back to Clarksville.

“I was there from 83 – 91, and still had a contract on the table,” Young said. “But. on Mondays I was going to the chiropractor, on Tuesdays I was going to Shiatsu massage, and on Wednesdays I was visiting an acupuncturist. I was reaching 31 and trying hard just to keep the joints and the body together.

“One of the most impactful quotes ever said to me, came from Red Auerbach.” Young said. “I was doing a Muriel Cigars commercial with Red in Nashville, and he said to me, 'Someone who gives back to the things that helped make him what he is, that's the mark of a really great man'.

“It was time to walk away. I had seen the world. I got to travel to china, Australia and Korea and play games there. I was in Japan ten months out of the year at that time. I made a lot of good friends, who immersed me into the Japanese culture. I actually miss Japanese food now, more than I missed American food when I was over there.”

“The city of Clarksville and sports helped develop me. These things got me through my youth, my teenage years, and young adulthood. I always wanted to give back. My dad was head of APSU's art department. He always wanted to give back. His was was by donating paintings to Flying High. People say I look and act just like him, which is really a compliment. Dad had a great sense of humor, and a great sense of obligation to this community.”

Young returned to Clarskville in 1992. He got his investment license, but his heart never drifted far from sports. The Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) was nonexistent in Clarskville in 1994,” Young said. “We were able to get AAU started up in Clarksville, and now under the management of Jerry Albert and Richard McWhirter, Clarksville hosts national AAU tournaments. We've hosted teams from New York, Washington, Hawaii, all over.”

Young once again followed his heart. He spent eighteen months getting his Masters in Education at Vanderbilt. He then got into teaching/coaching in 1995. He assisted for Coach Dick Hopper, who had assisted for Coach Fendley. Young hopes that when it's time for him to step down, a former player of his might take

that same path, assistant coaching and then taking over the program. “Time flies by,” Young said. “Some of my former players invited me to their weddings, now I'm teaching some of their kids. It is remarkable. Coming back to CHS just felt comfortable, like putting on your favorite jeans or shoes, and it still feels good. I still like working with teenagers. It's a great way for me to give back. “In Japan, I learned that if the team lost it was the big American's fault, but if we won it was about excellent coaching” he laughed. “I knew when I got into coaching I was going to turn that around. If we lose it's my fault, if we win, it's always about the players.” Since 1995, Young has also coached girls softball, boys baseball, and little league. He says it's not unusual to be coaching three sports throughout the year. He has also coached girls cross country, and girls basketball. “In all sports you have to have that lure, that carrot,” Young said. “Everyone has to realize that it's the effort that will lead them to tangible results. A) here's what you're doing. B) this could make you better. Once they cross that bridge they become much easier to coach. It can be challenging, but it's so rewarding

when they get there. Especially with teams. You can have five great individual players on the team - until they compartmentalize what they're doing, and create some synergy, you're not going to get it done.” The last two seasons CHS has made it to the state tournament. The biggest schools in the state are in Division 5-A, CHS is a Division 4-A School. “There are great teams all across the state,” Young said. “Usually, the two best teams in Memphis are ranked in the top ten in the nation. There are also great teams in East TN, and Middle TN. We made it in 2007-08, 2011-12 and 2021-22. That's six times we've been in the state tournament, back-to-back each time. When we had good teams we were able to go back-to-back.” This year's team has already completed its summer schedule, which Young says is just to get everyone assimilated with each other. “I don't believe in a lot of basketball in the summer,” Young said. “Players need to experience other coaches and players, on their own. I've never gotten to the state tournament in June or July. We'll start back around the third week of August, after school, mainly with conditioning.” The season starts in the first week of November, and for the first time in his coaching career, no starters are returning to this year's team. “Mike Head and Jay Bailey, my assistant coaches and I have added it up,” Young said. “We've lost 125 points over the last year. That's the average points of the players who aren't coming back. That's a lot to make up. But, we have some capable underclassmen

20

who practiced against these great players every day, and have tried to meet the challenge. “I guess we'll find out in practice. There is defense, offense, and the transition game. Most of the young players are pretty proficient on the offensive end of the floor. There are things they can do well and they can practice on their own. But on defense, a lot of effort is needed, and on the transition game it's all about awareness.” Coaching may be even more critical in a rebuilding year. “On my teams that made the state tournament, or came close, there was usually a player/point guard who was in my head,” Young said. “He knew what I was looking for, because we drilled it every day in practice. He knew if we were down five or up ten, exactly what we needed to be doing. We do a lot of our vocal coaching during practice, I don't like to do that during games. In games, they need to react, not be looking out of the corner of their eye to see what the coach is thinking.” There will be 26 - 28 games this season, more if CHS makes the post season. Young says he's never overly optimistic about wins. “We always challenge ourselves to schedule the toughest opponents in the mid-state. You have to find out early in the year where your weaknesses are. We want the battle that the best teams bring. “I'm excited for the upcoming season. It's our first time without a single returning starter, so every position is wide open. We have some ideas about who will fill the roles.

Clarksville Living

“If you ask me what's the one thing I want to accomplish as a coach, it's if there's a kid who wants to play at the next level, I want to teach him/prepare him to meet that challenge. That's what coaching is about for me.” Young says the kids are a little spoiled after backto-back tournament appearances. They want to go to state every year. His former players are tough on the new players, but, they're quick to celebrate the new team's success, and they show up to support them. “When the big games are on the line in the post season, my former players are in the stands behind the bench, and that feels great,” Young said. “Seeing them, and how mature they are, and them with their families. My wife Marydith is a big part of our program as well, she's a maternal figure for them, always sitting right behind the bench and letting them know she's there for them.” Young says on average CHS basketball draws 500 – 600 fans. Big games can draw 800 -1,200. He adds that for just $6 it's a great night of entertainment. And, as for the future. “I was a 1960 baby,” Young said. “When you start hitting those birthdays with zeros, people start assuming you're going to step down. When you go back-to-back like we just did, they really start to assume. But, I still really like working with the kids in the classroom and I still have the athletic ability and stamina to work with the players. I still feel healthy. I'm still energized by the challenge. The lure of it all is putting a recipe together each year and having no idea how it's going to come out. We just hope to be there at the end, and be competitive.”

by her abusive stepfather to an even more abusive husband. Though Celie spends most of her days as a servant in her own household, cut off by her husband from those she loves, she tries to remain hopeful that she will ultimately be reunited with her sister Nettie and her children by way of her stepfather Adam and Olivia. Over the years, Celie, increasingly jaded by her lot, finds ways to cope with life — a potential lover in the fabulous Shug Avery, a friend in her stepson’s wife Sofia, and a love of making stretchable pants that turns into a booming business. Through her string of unfortunate events, though, Celie learns that the most important thing is that she is a survivor, and that no matter what happens to her, she is still here.
