Dear Neighbors, As we welcome a fresh new year, we’re proud to celebrate something that has always set Germantown apart: the way our community moves forward together. This edition of Germantown Magazine, fittingly called The Harmony Issue, explores the many ways our City finds connection, balance and shared purpose in everything we do.

You’ll see that spirit reflected through the golden anniversary of the Germantown Symphony Orchestra, a milestone that celebrates not only decades of music but the dedication of the musicians, volunteers and supporters who have helped the arts flourish here. You’ll also get a behind-the-scenes look at the remarkable student productions presented by our Germantown Municipal School District. These performances highlight creativity, teamwork and the confidence that grows when young people are encouraged to shine.

Harmony shows up in our business community as well. In this issue, we proudly showcase the Germantown Area Chamber of Commerce’s annual business award recipients: Ambassador of the Year, Small Business of the Year, Large

8 Germantown Magazine

Business of the Year and Entrepreneur of the Year. Their stories reflect resilience, innovation and the cooperative spirit that helps our local economy thrive.

You’ll also meet City Planning Division Manager Sarah Goralewski, whose thoughtful approach to growth and community design helps ensure that Germantown remains a place where neighborhoods, businesses and public spaces work in thoughtful alignment.

As we step into 2026, we hope this issue leaves you inspired by the people and partnerships that make Germantown such a remarkable place to call home. May the year ahead bring you peace, connection and moments of true harmony.

Kelly McNally 2025 AMBASSADOR OF THE YEAR “I never imagined receiving this award when I became a chamber ambassador two years ago,” said Kelly McNally, program director at the Shelby Literacy Center. “I suppose I need to have more confidence in myself,” she added with a laugh.

McNally has been named the Germantown Area Chamber of Commerce’s 2025 Ambassador of the Year, an honor that recognizes outstanding volunteer service and leadership within the Chamber and the broader community.

The award highlights individuals who demonstrate selflessness and a strong commitment to serving others. As chamber ambassadors, volunteers recruit new members, promote local businesses, and support both the Chamber and the local community.

“Being an ambassador is really more of a hobby; it’s about recruiting and networking within the Chamber,” McNally said. “Connecting with people is the main thing.”

She enjoys volunteering at events such as Taste of the Town, the golf tournament, the crawfish festival, which provide excellent opportunities to meet people and encourage their involvement.

At the Shelby Literacy Center, McNally and her team empower individuals to reach personal goals by providing opportunities to build literacy and life skills. The organization is committed to creating a welcoming, safe environment and supporting each individual's learning journey.

10 Germantown Magazine

As program director, McNally wears many hats with passion and determination. She works directly with students, manages daily operations and coordinates programs. With more than 15 years of administrative experience and expertise in marketing and client services, she brings valuable skills to both the Literacy Center and the Chamber.

Her involvement with the Chamber has also helped raise awareness for the Shelby Literacy Center, something she hadn’t expected.

“As a small nonprofit, it’s important for us to raise awareness, secure donors, and apply for grants,” she said. “Being part of the Chamber has helped us accomplish that.”

This year, McNally also served on the Ambassador Council, a volunteer group serving as the Chamber’s public relations arm. The committee promotes goodwill among Chamber members, the business community, and the residents the Chamber serves.

“I would say it’s a wonderful family to be part of—it goes beyond networking and connecting,” she said. “Everyone looks out for one another. People genuinely care.”

Congratulations to Kelly McNally on this honor. ■

Rabiya Fahad O W N E R A N D O P E R AT O R , S U F I ’ S M E D I T E R R A N E A N G R I L L & B A R

“It was a pleasant surprise, and I am deeply grateful for this recognition,” she said.

Sufi’s has enjoyed significant recognition this year, earning several notable local awards, including Best of Memphis 2025 – Best Mediterranean Restaurant by the Memphis Flyer and Choice Awards 2025 – Best Mediterranean Restaurant

by The Commercial Appeal.

Rabiya was born and raised in Dubai, the heart of the Middle East and a hub of diverse cultures, which deeply shaped her values around hospitality, culture and community.

“These recognitions reflect not only our culinary excellence, but the trust and support of the community we are proud to serve,” Fahad said.

When she moved from Dubai to Tennessee in 2018, she arrived with big dreams, a strong work ethic and a deep faith that if she served the community with warmth and sincerity, the community would embrace her and her family in return.

“This award is not mine alone. It belongs to my hardworking team, whose dedication and passion bring Sufi’s to life every day; to my family, whose unwavering support carried me through long days and challenging moments; and to the Germantown community, which welcomed us, supported us and trusted us with their celebrations, milestones and everyday moments.”

For Rabiya Fahad, owner and operator of Germantown’s popular Sufi’s Mediterranean Grill & Bar, receiving the 2025 Entrepreneur of the Year award was a shock.

“I never imagined our journey would lead to being honored in such an incredible way,” she added.

Sufi’s Mediterranean Grill & Bar was born from a simple idea – to bring authentic Mediterranean flavors and genuine hospitality to Germantown while creating a space rooted in warmth, culture, live entertainment and connection.

Rabiya said a special acknowledgment is owed to the founding members, Rafiq Devji and Buddy Kheraj, whose vision, belief and support helped lay the foundation for Sufi’s.

“Their guidance and partnership were instrumental in turning an idea into a reality,” she said.

16 Germantown Magazine

As a woman and an immigrant entrepreneur, this recognition is especially meaningful to Rabiya.

“It reflects Germantown’s spirit of inclusion, resilience and appreciation for small businesses that lead with heart. I am grateful for the opportunity to give back through mentorship, community involvement and by creating opportunities through our business.” ■ Written by Jeff Hulett Photography by Alex Ginsburg Photographics

HOW PLANNING DIVISION MANAGER SARAH GORALEWSKI HELPS SHAPE GERMANTOWN’S FUTURE 18 Germantown Magazine

By Erinn Figg Photography by Alex Ginsburg Photographics

W

hen it comes to shaping the future of Germantown, Planning Division Manager Sarah Goralewski brings both expertise and heart to the work. A dedicated public servant with a master’s degree in urban planning from the University of Michigan and decades of professional experience across the country, Goralewski is steadily making a lasting impact on the city she now calls home.

Her journey to Germantown is as layered as the development plans she manages. Originally from Michigan, Goralewski worked in urban planning roles in California and Detroit before moving to Germantown 10 years ago with her husband and son. She took a part-time job as a park ranger with the City’s Parks and Recreation Department to reenter the workforce after a few years as a stay-at-home mom in Wisconsin. Within six months and at the encouragement of former Parks and Recreation Director Pam Beasley, she applied for a planner position.

“I feel like I’ve grown a lot as a professional and individual since I’ve started here,” she said. “It’s been very humbling. What I really like about being in this midsized city is how approachable and collaborative leaders in other departments are, and the opportunities I have been afforded to discover more about Germantown and the urban planning profession as a whole. Every day, I’m learning and experiencing new things.”

Now, as planning division manager, Goralewski oversees development proposals, coordinates with multiple departments, advises boards and commissions and ensures projects align with Germantown’s community vision. She plays a vital role in reviewing everything from new singlefamily neighborhoods to large-scale developments like Thornwood. Her work touches nearly every aspect of how the city grows and functions.

“Urban planning is really about making sure all the pieces of the City puzzle work together,” she explained.

“In planning, we work closely with Engineering, Fire, Public Works and other City departments, as well as developers, to make sure projects are aesthetically pleasing, functional and aligned with the City’s long-term plans.”

There’s no such thing as a typical day, and that’s exactly what keeps her inspired. “One day I might be on a site visit checking building materials at a shopping center, and the next I’m helping a hospital understand how to expand their campus,” she said. “I also love that we work on large-scale projects, but still maintain a small-town feel.”

“Since I live here, I feel an added responsibility to make sure projects are executed to the best of my ability. It’s incredibly rewarding to watch a project go from an idea to a place that serves the community.”

Sarah Goralewski Germantown Planning Division Manager That connection to the community runs deep. Goralewski lives in Germantown, has served on her neighborhood HOA board as architectural chair and President, and has held multiple PTO leadership roles in the various Germantown Municipal School District (GMSD) schools her son has attended.

She was also an assistant coach for the youth Germantown Composite Mountain Bike Team for four years. Her community involvement has helped her Germantown Magazine

LESSONS LEARNED When Sarah Goralewski reflects on her career, one mentor rises above the rest: Martin Alkire, her former supervisor during her time as a planner in Mountain View, California.

“He was very supportive and collaborative,” she said, describing Alkire as a professional who managed his staff of 10 with kindness, humor and wisdom. Here are a few pieces of his advice that she carries with her: •

“Promise low, deliver high.” This approach results in fewer frustrated people and more pleasantly surprised ones.

•

“Always pause before you hit ‘Send.’” Be sure an email is the appropriate form of communication for the situation. If so, be comfortable with what you’ve written, as if your email could potentially run on the front page of a newspaper.

•

Create bonding moments for your team.

For example, Alkire would bring in his waffle maker once a month and serve the team breakfast.

“Whenever I think, ‘How can I be a good manager to my people?’ I always think about his management style. He really inspired me,” Goralewski said.

see planning from all angles. These roles have given her a practical view of how planning decisions affect daily life.

“Since I live here, I feel an added responsibility to make sure projects are executed to the best of my ability,” she said.

“It’s incredibly rewarding to watch a project go from an idea to a place that serves the community, like the new Forest Hill Elementary School or expansions at Madonna Learning Center.”

One of her proudest achievements was helping launch the City’s first Bicycle and Pedestrian Task Force together with the Mayor, which led to Germantown being named a Bicycle Friendly Community by the League of American Bicyclists in 2017. Her team also successfully nominated the City’s Greenway extension as a catalyst project for the Memphis Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO).

Both efforts expanded Germantown’s regional presence in transportation planning.

She credits much of her professional growth to the City’s supportive environment. “I’ve been very fortunate to work with great mentors, colleagues and supervisors who share their own knowledge and encourage further education,” she said. Goralewski holds several professional credentials,

20 Germantown Magazine

including American Institute of Certified Planners and Project Management Professional certifications and a Congress for New Urbanism-Accreditation, along with a Tennessee Urban Forestry Advisor certification. She continues to pursue ongoing training to stay current in her field.

Beyond her professional achievements, she’s also passionate about the outdoors, international travel and cultural experiences. She speaks German at home with her husband and son, has studied abroad in Senegal and Germany, and previously volunteered as a National Park Service ranger in San Francisco.

As for advice to aspiring planners? “You need a servant’s heart, patience and an open mind,” she said. “What you learn in school isn’t always what you do in the office. The job is about listening, learning and helping people understand how their community works.”

In the years ahead, Goralewski hopes Germantown continues to evolve in a way that is intentional, balanced and true to its identity. “We want to maintain the character of the City while ensuring we have the resources to support what makes this place so special,” she said. “That’s what thoughtful planning is all about.” ■

What I’ve Learned A Lumber Legacy:

Charles, Jason and Wyatt Speed Interview conducted by Stephanie Painter Photography by Alex Ginsburg Photographics Known to generations of residents simply as the Lumber Yard, the Germantown Lumber Company has been a fixture in the area since 1945. For nearly 40 years, three generations of the Speed family have operated the business. Recently, Charles Speed retired, and his son Jason now oversees operations. His son, Wyatt, has taken on a management role.

My family has always enjoyed the lumber business. My grandfather had a lumber yard in Memphis years ago called the Chambers-Ezell Lumber Yard. – Charles The Lumber Yard reflects the values of an earlier era defined by personal relationships and mutual trust, where business was settled on a handshake with friends and neighbors. – Jason

I admire my two granddads. They’ve both built some great businesses and legacies in their time… …But I really admire my Dad. He wears many hats and has his hands in a lot of buckets. He’s very driven, efficient and calculated with tasks at hand. He enjoys dealing with people and treats them fairly inside and outside the confines of business. – Wyatt While seeing how others approach success can help us think differently, more times than not, I’ve learned to find my own way and do the things that only I can do.

– Jason

My grandfather and father taught me the value of hard work. – Wyatt There’s a reason we’ve been here this long, sharing the knowledge, experience, and materials that build our community. – Jason There's value in working as a family, but there are two sides to it. Sometimes people say ‘You have everything given to you,’ but on the other hand, it's hard work.

– Wyatt My mom personified the book The Giving Tree, based on a relationship of loving sacrifice that is not fully appreciated until much later. A fitting reminder of the power that service and sacrifice have on the ones I love.

– Jason Everyone pulls their weight. That's important. – Wyatt I grew tomato plants and always kept a few cats around for fun. – Charles Consistency over time compounds rather than just getting lucky fast. In our family business, we have good dynamics. I bring a younger social media skill set and presence. I want to expand on what's good here and make the business the best it can be. – Wyatt True leadership – at work and at home – means showing up with your time and your heart for the people in your life. – Jason

22 Germantown Magazine

The people and relationships we’ve had in this business are something I’ve enjoyed. – Charles Home is where you put down roots, get involved, share life with friends, grow a business, and raise a family in a single location. This is what Germantown is for me.

– Jason The Germantown Chamber has always provided great opportunities for my father to stay involved and serve with good friends and fellow business owners. Now as generational roles change, the Chamber continues to offer the same opportunities to network and grow our different businesses with new local business owners and even a few familiar faces. – Jason ■

GERMANTOWN STUDENTS LIGHT UP SCHOOL THEATRES WITH CREATIVITY, TEAMWORK AND TALENT

t

he temperature may be dropping outside, but Germantown Municipal School District’s (GMSD) spring musicals are heating up. Over the years, GMSD has built a strong reputation for its diverse and dynamic theater productions–and this year continues that tradition. But what does it take to bring these imaginative, large-scale performances to life?

FOR HOUSTON MIDDLE SCHOOL choir director T.J. Timmerman, it’s about giving a space for students to connect.

“It’s about sharing this love for theatre and music,” he said. “But it’s also about seeing kids own the show and be leaders to other students.”

Timmerman and his students are well into rehearsals and planning for Mary Poppins Jr., which they began preparing in August.

“We thought it would be an attractive show for the school and something the kids could relate to,” Timmerman said. “We wanted a strong female lead, and Mary Poppins is just that.”

Support comes from a wide range, including other schools that have previously staged the production. “We’ve benefitted from other schools doing this show, and they are helping us,” he said. “And I get to work with my wife, who is choreographing our show.”

AT HOUSTON HIGH SCHOOL, fine arts theatre teacher Kell Christie and her students are hard at work preparing The Addams Family.

“Any large-scale musical like this takes effort from a diverse group of artists,” Christie said. “The performers spend uncounted hours in rehearsal perfecting their performances both as individuals and an ensemble.”

Christie has directed more than 50 productions, many throughout Memphis.

At Houston, the past several musicals have included Mean Girls, Chicago, Fiddler on the Roof, Mamma Mia and 42nd St. She’s also directed 12 Angry Men, Our Town, Much Ado About Nothing and Alice in Wonderland.

“They come to me as freshmen who are still mostly children, and when they leave, they are artists with unique interests and skill sets,” Kell Christie, Fine Arts Theatre Teacher, Houston High School

“They come to me as freshmen who are still mostly children, and when they leave, they are artists with unique interests and skill sets,” she said. “I also love watching the bonds they form. They support and love each other, and that's delightful to see.”

Former Houston High School student Michael Thomas Grant still reflects fondly on his theater experience.

“My first-ever theatre shows were Seussical: The Musical, followed by Romeo and Juliet and All Shook Up my senior year,” he said. “I really lucked out by having teachers in both visual and performing arts that felt like real craftspeople– Amanda McKnight and Bo List, to name a few–so I could engage with acting with a sense of depth I don’t think I would’ve been afforded otherwise.

Now a working actor based in Los Angeles, Grant’s resume includes stints on television shows including Grey’s Anatomy and NBC’s Zoey’s Incredible Playlist, and countless stage productions.

He credits this interdisciplinary influence on how he approaches his craft today. “I still try to approach acting with a lateral perspective, so that interdisciplinary foundation really helped.”

AT FARMINGTON ELEMENTARY, Caryn Sheets Daugherty

AT RIVERDALE SCHOOL, students and staff are gearing up

is thrilled to be working on Elf Jr.

for Seussical Jr., directed by GMSD and Houston High School alum Will Lowery.

“It truly takes a village,” she said. “Our Elf Jr. production has been a complete team effort from start to finish.”

Thanks to a strong planning team and generous support from the community–including help from Houston High School theater students–Farmington’s show is coming together quickly.

“One of the things we’re most proud of is that our crew is entirely student-run,” she added. “They handle everything backstage, lights, sound, props, scene changes and they even call “places” for each scene.

Parents and grandparents have jumped in to paint sets, sew costumes and manage dressing rooms. “It’s a huge undertaking, but it’s also one of the most rewarding things we do all year.”

Farmington’s Falcon Footlights program has grown tremendously, with past productions including The Lion King Jr., Aladdin Jr., The Little Mermaid Jr. and Willy Wonka Jr.

“Our show dates are March 4 through 7, with March 4 dedicated to our schoolwide matinee day,” he said. “We have a wonderfully large cast of 46 students from first through eighth grade, along with a student-run crew of approximately 40 to 50 students in grades 5 to 8.”

Producing a show of this size requires schoolwide support and months of preparation.

“Students begin with audition workshops, participate in auditions, and then commit to rehearsals running from October all the way to showtime in March,” he said.

Thanks to strong administrative support, the gym transforms into Raider Theater for several months leading up to the show.

“We could not do any of this without our amazing parent support,” he said. “When a child becomes part of a production, their families become part of it too—their involvement is essential to bringing the show to life.” ■

“Each show teaches the students something new, not just about theater, but about teamwork, responsibility and creativity,” Daugherty said. “Every year they take more ownership, and it’s incredible to watch that confidence bloom.”

HOW 50 YEARS OF GERMANTOWN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA IS IMPACTING CULTURE AND COMMUNITY With a history of beautiful performances over the past five decades, the Germantown Symphony Orchestra (GSO) has earned a faithful following.

That loyalty was on full display last spring, when audience members stayed through the final piece of a pops program despite heavy rains. “They cheered louder than ever,” recalled trombone player and board president Matt May, who played a solo from Show Boat at The Grove as the rain began. “It was fun being in my hometown and seeing how much people care about music.”

Today, the GSO is the longest-standing volunteer community orchestra in Tennessee and serves as the community orchestra in residence at Germantown Performing Arts Center (GPAC). Its music brings mutual enjoyment for listeners and the performers with a passion for music. The pops programs and Holiday Concert sell out every year, and the classical series presents several concerts. Highlighting collaboration, GSO invites the Houston High School and Germantown High School choruses to perform at the Holiday Concert at GPAC, where the audience joins in a festive sing-along.

“Whether they are performing outdoors in The Grove or indoors in the Highland Capital Performance Hall, it isn't just music that the GSO creates. It is magic,” said Parke Kennedy, executive director and director of development at GPAC. “The GSO has the ability to bring all members of our community together for joyous evenings filled with beautiful music and priceless memories. We are proud to partner with them every year for their Pops Concert and their Holiday Concert, and are especially ecstatic to celebrate alongside them for their Golden Anniversary.”

That tradition of community engagement has helped launch successful careers for guest artists and young musicians. In 1981, a concert at the Memphis Jewish Community Center featured young violin soloist Alan Gilbert, later a conductor of the New York Philharmonic, and his sister, Jennifer, who built an international career as a violinist and chamber music performer.

The musicians, who work as music teachers, physicians, attorneys and in sales and other professions, pause their busy lives for weekly rehearsals. Violinist Diane Coons said, “GSO contributes to the culture of the community because we offer a place where people who love music come together to make it, and the all-volunteer orchestra provides great quality performances. We have an amazing repertoire, and our community ensemble is one of the oldest in the Mid-South. Our tickets are affordable, and students receive free tickets for most performances. Members also volunteer extensively because of their love for the orchestra.”

“Playing in the orchestra is not our job – it is our love.”

Dr. Ronald Vernon, Musical Director and Conductor, Germantown Symphony Orchestra

The hometown treasure’s musicians serve as ambassadors of the arts, traveling to cities throughout the Mid-South, and since 2000, GSO has awarded scholarship monies to 78 recipients through its Young Artists Concerto Competition, helping launch careers of artists including violinist Linnaea Brophy, a skilled soloist, orchestral player and chamber musician who returns to perform as the GSO’s featured guest artist in March 2026.

Other winners include London-based violinist Basil Alter, who performs throughout the U.S. and Europe and is an arranger and composer; freelance cellist Alisa Horn, a versatile performer and educator whose work spans classical, jazz and Broadway; and violinist Randall Goosby, one of the foremost violinists of his generation celebrated for his artistry and advocacy.

In its 50-year history, GSO members have ranged in age from 15 to 85, and an all musician-led board has been key to its longevity, said May. “We run it and perform, allowing us to be wholly invested and have some control.”

Frank Anthony is one of 85 musicians who cannot imagine life without this creative community resource. A chemist by profession and longtime member who plays the French horn, he said, “Playing in the orchestra is not our job – it is our love.”

HISTORY AND HIGHLIGHTS The Germantown Pops Orchestra presented its first concert under the baton of Noel Gilbert at Germantown High School in January 1976.

In 1993, GSO performed at the opening of Cat Country at the Memphis Zoo, performing Carnival of the Animals and an arrangement of Born Free.

In 2006, the ensemble represented the state of Tennessee at the Festival of the States Music Festival in Washington, D.C., and performed on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. Linda Brittingham said, “We also played at the National Veterans’ Home and at a lovely Lutheran church downtown.”

A Golden Milestone To celebrate its Golden Anniversary, GSO commissioned a piece by local composer Robert Patterson for a May 16 concert reuniting past and current members. The anniversary year also marks a significant change for the orchestra: after 25 years of leadership, beloved music director and conductor Dr. Ronald Vernon, professor of music emeritus at the University of Mississippi, will retire at the end of the 2025-26 season. Vernon is credited with bringing exemplary artistry and innovation to GSO. Under his direction, the orchestra has flourished, expanding its repertoire, increasing membership and growing the young artist competition. He will be honored as conductor emeritus and the competition renamed the Dr. Ronald F. Vernon Young Artist Scholarship & Concerto Competition.

“Ron has inspired audiences with his artistry, quick wit and informative education talks, and left a lasting legacy with members and young artists that will resonate for years,” said May. Coons noted, “Ron has been an inspiring educator and motivates members to want to play their very best.” Clarinet player Linda Brittingham appreciates his focus on building up the string section.

For his part, Vernon has enjoyed his tenure. “GSO’s members have idealism and commitment to making beautiful music and are very accomplished musicians,” he said. Jonathan Schallert, currently music director and conductor of the GPAC Youth Symphony Orchestra, will serve as GSO music director and conductor starting in the 2026-27 season. ■

In 2012, GSO performed at Shiloh National Military Park in recognition of the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Shiloh.

GSO presents an annual concert at Cherry Mansion in Savannah, Tennessee, where Union commander Ulysses S. Grant stayed overnight before the Battle at Shiloh. Diane Coons said, “The owner’s mother hosted these concerts, and she’s keeping up the family tradition with this special event presented by Savannah Arts Commission. People bring chairs and blankets and enjoy the music.”

A plaque at GPAC honors guest conductor Edwin Hubbard, who collapsed after intermission at a GSO concert in 1997 and later died.

GSO’s music contributes to quality of life. “When my neighbor heard me playing French horn, we struck up a conversation. Now she and her husband faithfully come to our Holiday Concert.

Our music is impacting neighbors in the community. It's literally impacting my neighbor next door,” Frank Anthony said with a smile.

The screen is mounted on a trolley, allowing for it to be moved upstage and “become” the performance or downstage to assist or enhance a performance. There is a paved entrance plaza, called the First Horizon Foundation Plaza, to welcome guests, featuring a large covered bar, seating areas, performance areas for small combos, the Donor Wall, art areas and more. For information and tickets, call the GPAC box office at (901) 7517500, visit gpacweb.com or drop by weekdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
