Adamsville drum major Macy Franks adds another state championship crown to the trophy case.

Adamsville has gone back-toback. The Cardinals claimed their second consecutive Tennessee Division II State Marching Band Championship late Saturday. Adamsville’s state championship is its 11th overall and second in a row since moving to Division II two years ago. McNairy Central finished among the Top 5 for a second straight time with a 4th place showing in the 38th annual event held at Stewart Creeks High School in Smyrna. “I’m proud of every single day the students showed up to

rehearsal and worked so hard to get here,” said AHS Band Director David Stevens. Adamsville’s performance received a score of 93.95 to edge Elizabethon (92.6) for a second straight time. Father Ryan was third with a score of 91.95 and McNairy finished with a score of 90.6. “We talked this season about writing a book and each rehearsal and performance is a new page,”

said Stevens. “These students wrote the last page every day of the season with all the obstacles they overcame.” Twenty-four bands competed for the 2018 title. “Crystallized Moments” was the name of the AHS show. “We bought it and tweaked it some, but we didn’t give the songs titles, we just named the

A decision to save money is the reason the McNairy County School District’s Director of Maintenance will not be replaced. Director of Schools Greg Martin believes the extra funds could be better utilized without a director of maintenance.

Selmer Police Department patrolman Nick Inman was injured in the accident which happened around 10:30 a.m. Tuesday. Cassie Hewitt, the driver of a 2002 Volkswagen, was also injured.

TDOT increases sidewalk funding By Joel Counce For the Independent Appeal

The Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) is kicking in more cash. TDOT increased grant funds for the Town of Selmer for work on the city’s sidewalks at the intersection of Houston Street and Second Street and then west along Houston. “We were awarded this by TDOT two years ago,” said Selmer Mayor John Smith. “We’re going to be taking bids on the work and materials ... those things cost more than they did two years ago.” Most of the project deals with

come from a different location up the streets.” The work will add sidewalks and ramps as well as handicapped parking. Bulbouts (curb extensions) and decorative lamps will also be added to the street corners in the intersection. The lamps can also be used to hang banners and Christmas decorations. “A bulbout is a protected extension of the sidewalk for people to stand on so they’re not just standing in the street,” said Estes. “People will be able to park in the project area and have compliant access to the businesses and post office.”

Utrust honors McNairy County School District For the Independent Appeal

The McNairy County School Board has received an award for excellence in unemployment compensation administration. The award was presented at a statewide Utrust meeting in Nashville to McNairy County Director of Schools Greg Martin. McNairy County had the lowest number of unemployment compensation claims per employee of any school system

in the state with more than 200 employees. “We congratulate McNairy County for their excellent work in keeping unemployment compensation claims to a minimum,” said Utrust administrator Dr. Dan Tollett as he presented the award. “This is a significant accomplishment and one the taxpayers of McNairy County should be extremely proud of.” Some school systems about the size of McNairy County spent 30 times more than

McNairy County for unemployment claims last year, according to Tollett. “Low unemployment claims indicate the school system is a good place to work,” said Tollett. “That is a tribute to the superintendent and principals as well as the board.” Martin said he values every employee in the school district. “We strive to make our schools good places for employees to work.” said Martin.

“We want every employee to know their work is valued and appreciated.” The award, named after former Utrust board president and longtime Sullivan County School Board Member Charles Bridwell, is presented annually in November.

McNairy County is celebrating Poppy Month. Selmer Mayor John Smith and McNairy County Mayor Larry Smith signed a proclamation declaring November as Veterans Day Month. The Selmer American Legion Auxiliary will be selling cloth poppy flowers and acorn necklaces with poppy flowers or crosses in them. “They’re real acorns,” said American Legion Auxilary Chaplain Sandra Cholewiak. “The flowers are made of bread dough and the crosses are deer antler that have been sliced and carved.” The Auxiliary requests

donations for the necklaces and the poppies. “The money can only be used to help veterans and their families,” said American Legion Auxiliary President Lavonne Moore. “We want the residents of McNairy County to know we are here.” McNairy County Mayor Larry Smith said the cause was worthwhile. “They take time out of their lives and their schedules to serve our veterans,” he said. “That is so important.” Selmer Mayor John Smith agreed. “They work hard and they are dedicated to this,” he said. “Their service is important to the veterans, to the city and to the county.”

Support local merchants during holiday shopping By Janet Rail Publisher

It’s time to go Christmas shopping. Christmas is near and the local shops are ready. Many merchants are welcoming shoppers during Open Houses in the area. This makes the shopping experience fun and not overwhelming with shops so full that finding the perfect gift is near impossible. Strolling the local marketplace allows people

time to put thought into gifts. Strolling the shops this week during the Open House season, the staff at each shop was willing to help people find the perfect gift or just sample some great food and browse the merchandise for ideas. Great gift ideas are not always expensive. Wonderful options can be found

starting at $8 from lovely earrings, bracelets, soaps, candles, kitchen towels and hand made lip balms for stocking stuffers. Area merchants work hard to select a variety of gifts that are of great quality, unique and won’t break a budget. If you are looking for something special they are willing to help. For the past two years, I

have attended open houses and enjoyed the friends and fellowship while having the opportunity to pick up a few gifts and a lot of Christmas spirit. Most of my gifts are selected and wrapped within a few hours and I feel so good about the selections and know my friends and family will love the gifts. It’s never too early to be in the spirit of Christmas. Chime in on the shopping season early and make more time to celebrate the reason for the season.

Coleman retires from Selmer Utilities Division By Joel Counce

James Coleman started working for the Selmer Utilities Division after then-mayor Billy Joe Glover asked him to apply for the job in 1973. Coleman walked out of the

SUD building on Oct. 31 for the last time as a city employee. “I started working at the street and sanitation department,” he said. “About six months later, I moved to the water department and I’ve been here ever since.” Coleman said he has seen a lot of changes since his first day

working for the city. “The people are what has changed the most,” he said. “The work has gone from hand tools, shovels and sharpshooters to backhoes. The people have calmed down some over the years.” Selmer Public Works Director

Selmer Middle School Principal Dr. Brenda Armstrong presents the Professional Educator of the Year award to SMS teacher Ricky Mitchell.

Richard Ashe said longtime employees like Coleman are vital to the department. “You can’t replace experience,” he said. “It takes time, it takes learning. It’s not an easy job. You have to learn how to handle complaints and deal with people.”

Selmer Mayor John Smith said Coleman will be missed. “I hope he enjoys his retirement,” he said. “He’s dedicated his life to the city and to this department.” Coleman said he plans on spending his retirement traveling and visiting his grandchildren.

change at the sole discretion of the payer. It also limits fee schedule changes to once in a 12-month period and requires a 90-day notice of those changes. The Tennessee Medical Association began pushing for fairer business policies in 2014 after years of complaints from medical practices who felt powerless against one-sided, “take-it-or-leave-it” contracts that allowed health plans to change payments arbitrarily and without notice. TMA led grassroots efforts that

persuaded lawmakers to pass the Healthcare Provider Stability Act in 2017. When doctors or other healthcare providers cannot afford to incur an unexpected change in reimbursement from a health plan they may be forced to stop providing a procedure or drop out of the network altogether. Patients suffer by having to pay higher “out-of-network” fees for the same service if they want to continue seeing their doctor, or find another doctor who is in their insurer’s network.

Attacks have no place in elections By Steve Beavers On the Sideline

Thank goodness this election is over. It has been one negative attack after another. The U.S. Senate race between Phil Bredesen and Marsha Blackburn became more about who could sling the most mud than what each could bring to the table for Tennesseans. I don’t care if a person is Democrat, Republican, Libertarian or Independent. We are all Americans and supposedly on the same team. The reason people aren’t voting is because of all this garbage being said on television, radio and social media. That’s what Washington D.C. has become. Founding fathers George Washington and Thomas Jefferson would be so disappointed with how things are now. I can save all the state and national politicians who come to McNairy Beavers County some time in the future. If a candidate is only going to bash his opponent during a local stop – keep on going friend because that rhetoric ain’t going to be in this newspaper. Don’t tell me it’s how things are today. Tell me why you are the best candidate and show me how you are going to make things better. Campaigning has become more like professional wrestling. It’s all a performance. Politicians should stick to campaigning on why they are the best candidate. It’s a hiring process. Candidates are vying for the opportunity to work for us. I have never gone into a job interview and asked who else was being considered for the job so I could deliver a personal attack. I went in there and tried to express why I was the best choice for the position. Bredesen said it best during a recent stop in McNairy County. It’s something both candidates should have done more. “Everything is about a partisan argument,” he said on being discouraged about how things are in Washington. “We have to listen to the ideas of others ... we solve problems better that way.” That was the first time I have heard either candidate say something that made sense. I don’t care who anyone voted for. It’s none of my business. We have far too many other issues like senseless killings, poverty and a majority of unsaved Americans. But things aren’t going to get better until we learn to work together and quit all of this bickering. In the words of each candidate – “I am Steve Beavers and I approve of this message.”

Words can’t describe autumn By Nancy Kennedy Tidd Bitts

Autumn comes as the sun moves farther south, bringing warm comfortable days and chilly nights. Daddy said he could feel it coming just before the trees started mellowing into beautiful browns, golden yellows and even reddish colors and the earth smelled difKennedy ferent. Even as a child the air was different to me. Picking an apple off the tree and rubbing it over my shirt to clean it, then climbing on a limb, relaxing and enjoying the apple in midst of soft, sweet fragrance.

Cattails waved in the sun while the aroma of wild apricots infiltrated the air. They were usually wild near a cotton patch, but didn’t taste as sweet as they smelled. Out in the country we always called it fall. I thought it meant leaves would fall from the tree but maybe nature would fall, then rest for a season and spring again in March. Fall in my youthful days was a busy time. Time to pick cotton, pull corn, dig the potatoes and gather the apples and store them in a cool, dark place. Time to make a batch of pear preserves. Time to cut sorghum and make molasses. Breakfast was great with mama’s hot, buttered biscuits with amber preserves or yummy molasses. Time to enjoy the last harvest of peas, tomatoes, squash and watermelons.

Squirrels running to find the hickory nuts before we did and mice trying to find a small room in our house. Chrysanthemums was queen of mother’s yard and the roses would bloom until the cocklebur turns brown when old Jack Frost slips through one clear night. Raking leaves into a big pile then jumping right in the middle was lots of fun until mama would make me stop and rake more leaves. There are no more long walks in the woods or to the creek to enjoy the beauty of autumn today. It’s great I can still have good days to enjoy God’s beauty, walking in beautiful sunshine while a little, crisp wind makes golden leaves dance in the wind. Words can’t described the pleasures of autumn, but memories of a lifetime can.

Moving the State of Tennessee from good to great By Ron Gant District 94 State Representative

Good is the enemy of great. There are a lot of good things happening right now in Tennessee. Many of those successes are a direct result of the actions of conservative leaders who are in tune with the needs of their citizens and who are committed to fighting to uphold your Tennessee values. My Republican colGant leagues and I won’t settle for Tennessee just being good. We are determined to make it great. As your voice in Nashville for the past two years, it has been both humbling and extremely rewarding to lead the recent transformation of our state. In recent years, Republican lawmakers have supported the creation of more than 400,000 new private sector jobs. While statewide unemployment has remained near record-low levels for more than an entire year, there remains a strong need for more jobs here locally, and I will continue to fight to bring these high quality jobs to

our communities in the weeks, months and years ahead. Initiatives like the Tennessee Broadband Accessibility Act – which we passed in 2017 – will help us continue to attract new businesses through expanded access to reliable broadband services in cities and towns across our region. We have already seen some companies announce relocation and growth plans in newly served parts of our state. Republican leaders have also cut almost $1 billion dollars in taxes over the last eight years. This amount is almost three times as much in tax cuts as any other Administration or General Assembly in state history. These tax reductions include phasing out the inheritance tax, eliminating the gift tax, reducing the sales tax on groceries multiple times, cutting property tax owed by veterans, disabled, and elderly citizens, raising the exemption level on the Hall tax and scheduling it to be completely phased out in the next couple of years, and lowering the franchise and excise tax to recruit new business to Tennessee. When we keep our taxes low, we support our continued economic growth, as well as our hardworking men, women and families. Tennessee is also making remarkable

strides improving our education system under the watchful eye of Republican lawmakers. Thanks to our strategic investments – including more than $200 million in new K-12 funding and $55 million in teacher pay raises just this year alone – our students are the fastest improving across math, reading and science in the entire nation. Innovative higher education programs like Tennessee Promise and Tennessee Reconnect have allowed us to become the first state in the entire nation to offer all kids and adults access to community college free of tuition and fees without raising taxes. When Reconnect was first implemented, it was estimated that 7,000 adults would benefit from the program. Earlier this fall, we learned that approximately 31,000 citizens had already applied for the Reconnect grant. By better preparing our current and future workforce with the education and training needed to fill the quality jobs on their way, we are strengthening the foundations of our citizens so they can achieve successful futures through increased productivity and improvements in their overall job performance levels. House Republicans want our current and future employees to be prepared to

control their own destinies and excel at all levels of their careers. We must continue to prioritize the health and well-being of our citizens. Whether it is building upon the Tennessee Together plan to combat our ongoing opioid epidemic, or simply putting Tennesseans in charge of their own decisions related to health care services through reforms and innovative policies, we must and we will further our efforts lowering patient costs, improving access, and the quality of care that our citizens receive. This can be done without regulations and mandates from the government or interference from insurance providers, which have driven up costs. These are very exciting times in our community, our region and our state. We are on the verge of greatness, and I know that together, Tennessee will do more than just scratch the surface of its endless potential. Continued partnership and support of House Republicans will ensure Tennessee remains a model for our entire nation to follow.

Ray wants to serve Jesus Christ By Joel Counce for the Independent Appeal

Michael Ray wants to be a servant of Jesus Christ. That desire led the Selmer resident to go on a trip to Ecuador with the group WHEW, founded by Eddie Kressler of Bolivar from Sept. 28 until Oct. 7. “I just fell in love with it,” he said. “The people there, the group we were travelling with, everything, the people in Ecuador and our team from America. “I have a new family in Ecuador.” During the trip, the group visited schools, senior citizens homes, train terminals and bus terminals in the towns of Riobamba and Mindo. “We brought reading glasses from Dollar Tree that were from 1.0 to 4.0,” he said. “We gave them a sheet of paper with different sized letters on it. We gave them glasses based on what they could read.” The group also visited churches. “We would set up carnivals for the youth in the churches,” Ray said. “We had a football and a baseball for them to throw to a catcher’s mitt or receiver’s hands. We also blew up balloons and made various animals and painted faces.” In one school –­ Unidad Educational Tuntatacto – Ray spoke to students in schools about Christ. “We can’t do that in Tennessee,” he said. “But they allowed us in there. I was just talking to the kids about if they had ever done anything wrong. “The next day, their teacher, Miss Sanchez, accepted Christ.” Schools in the small towns teach younger students from 7 a.m. until noon and high school students from 1 p.m. until 5 p.m. “We hope to talk to the older students when we go back,” Ray said. At a senior citizens home, Ray and other served meals of fried bananas and cheese to residents. Ray took teeth cleaning kits from Selmer dentist Dr. Ronnie Fullwood, 50 Spanish language Gideon Bibles from Sam Vise of Selmer and $50 worth of donated crayons and construction paper. “My suitcase was a lot lighter when I left than when I came,” Ray said. Ray hopes to return to the Latin American country in May.

Who is your favorite baseball team? Growing up I was a Yankee fan, not sure why, but I sure thought they were the best. As I got older I became a St. Louis Cardinal fan for several reasons but one of them was because I sure like to watch Ozzie Smith walk or rather flip out on the field. Baseball is a game most of us have enjoyed watching or playing in our life. We have a resident though who is probably the biggest Cardinal fan I have ever met. During baseball season I get to hear second hand all about the Cardinals and how their games are going. Our resident Rickey White really likes to Rickey White watch, eat, sleep and bleed red for the St. Louis Cardinals. Our administrator Chris Spence is a Braves fan and his office is across the hall from me, so during baseball season I get to listen to ESPN per McNairy County Health Care and the host is Chris and Rickey. I hear about batting averages and how fast that pitcher threw that curve ball. Who struck out, home runs, you name it, I hear about it from these two folks. Now I am a patient advocate, so I am always for whoever the residents are for; so good thing I have been a Cardinal Fan for several years. I actually got to go to a Cardinal game when Ozzie was still playing and enjoyed the game but the flip to short stop was my favorite part of that game. Rickey grew up in Bethel Springs and I knew his family so we can usually find somebody or someone to talk about. We talk about the “Good old days” and all the folks we remember. We were a small town and in my graduation class I think there was forty-five who walked across to get that diploma. I don’t think we had an Ozzie Smith but we still had some good players. Even then the famous Jerry Lott was in my class and now he is the coach for McNairy Central High School. Do you remember those Sunday afternoon games of baseball? Rickey does, and he enjoys them then and now. He watches football and is a die-hard Tennessee fan. He just really likes all sports but the Cardinals are his favorite. This week Rickey received a letter from The Cardinals thanking him for being a fan. It made his day and mine seeing his smile. He brought the letter to me to read and said, “don’t you get any finger prints on my letter.” That is a treasure to him and to the Cardinals. Thank you for making his and my day. We all have a passion in our lives; what is yours? Rickey’s is baseball, football, and any kind of sports. And on Monday we talked about what Charles Stanley’s message was about the day before. I thank God for the folks who call my home their home, “ McNairy County Health Care”. For the sweet lady who told me yesterday, I miss your stories in the paper, that was my favorite part of the paper. Sure made this girl’s day. So during this time of thanksgiving remember all the things you have to be thankful for. Your family, job, friends and your passion in life. Until next time.

with a 22-7 victory over RaleighEgypt in the 1st Round of the TSSAA Class 3A Football Playoffs. Many projected the game would be a battle of dominant tailbacks as McNairy’s Austin Scott and Raleigh-Egypt’s Romal Webb have each been workhorses this season for their respective teams. Prior to Friday’s game, Webb had amassed over 2,000 rushing yards and 25 rushing touchdowns to lead the Pharoah’s offense. The McNairy defense did its homework and watched as it paid off; the Bobcats restrained Webb, holding the strong-legged runner to only 53 yards and a single touchdown in the contest. Meanwhile, junior Scott ran for 115 yards during Friday’s win and became the latest Bobcat to rush for 1,000 yards in a season. Scott is only the second Bobcat to reach the coveted plateau this decade; Jarrett Mood had exactly 1,000 yards in 2013. The junior’s current total is an

even 1,000 yards; if he could rush for over 100 yards against C ov i n g t o n , he would tie for a Top 10 all-time spot for rushing marks. If he rushes for 102 yards or more, he will secure a spot for himself. Looking to make an early statement, the Bobcats came out of the gate strong and pushed back against Webb. With two yards to go on second down, Austin Scott hit the right side gap and strode down the sideline nine yards for a touchdown. A holding penalty negated the play and took the points off the board, but Matt Young connected from 20 yards out to get McNairy on the board, 3-0. Raleigh-Egypt drove 80 yards in eight plays and punched the ball into the end zone when Webb swept along the outside to pay dirt. The touchdown and ensuing PAT were the last points the Pharaohs would score.

Three minutes into the second quarter, Young knocked a Raleigh-Egypt punt loose and scored on a safety for McNairy. At halftime, the scoreboard read like a baseball game as Raleigh-Egypt led 7-5. McNairy came out of the half with fire in their hearts and stopped the Pharaohs in their own end zone for a second safety to tie the game at seven all. The Bobcats used the momentum to drive 48 yards in five plays and capitalize when quarterback Cole Kirk connected with Mason Latham for a five-yard touchdown to boost McNairy to 13-7. “I knew it would be a good ball from Cole,” said Latham. “I just wanted to make the play for the team.” On the next series, Sailor Kinkennon sacked Tunstall in the Raleigh-Egypt end zone for the third safety of the contest. Kirk would not let the momentum shift again and found Michael Wilson from 25 yards out for his second touchdown strike of the game to put McNairy up 22-7. Wilson said he initially thought he was out of bounds during the grab. “The referee signalled ‘touchdown’ and everyone went crazy,” said Wilson. “It was huge for the whole team and all-in-all the biggest touchdown of my career so far.” The Bobcats were efficient in their time with the ball and capitalized on the mistakes the Pharoahs made, scoring on three safety plays and sacking RaleighEgypt quarterback Clifton Tunstall four times. McNairy outrushed RaleighEgypt 154 yards to 11 and were more successful through the air, as well (76-60 Bobcats). Just before the end of the first half, Bobcat linebacker Anthony White completed a tackle on Webb at the Raleigh-Egypt 38-yard-line. During the stop, Webb’s knee connected with White’s helmet and the defender fell to the field. After team trainer Morgan Hays and emergency personnel attended to White, he was removed from the game and taken to a nearby medical facility for concussion and general wellness tests to be performed. White was returned home from the emergency room just after midnight; all the scans came back negative. White will be checked prior to Friday’s game, where he may be allowed to resume punting duties. McNairy will face region foe

Covington in Friday’s 2nd Round. The Chargers (11-0) downed Melrose 49-6 in their playoff opener. Wilson said the team is expecting a great game Friday. “We know this game is not going to be easy,” said Wilson. “When we met in the regular season, we didn’t get the result we wanted and we’re coming in hungry.” MCHS came into the contest losers of five straight postseason decisions. Four of the losses came on the road. The Bobcats are now 4-10 in road playoff games. Three of the wins – Ridgeway twice and Raleigh-Egypt – came against Memphis schools. McNairy is out for a measure of revenge in Friday’s game as the Bobcats seek to avenge one of their two season losses to the Chargers.

Selmer earns split with nightcap comeback By Steve Beavers Assistant Editor

Selmer didn’t get off to a good start. The Lions made up for it with a much better finish. SMS climbed out of a 10-0 first-quarter deficit to down visiting Bethel Springs 43-31 in the McNairy County opener for both schools on Thursday. The Lady Rebels tipped off the night with a 42-8 decision over the Lady Lions. Bethel tallied the first 10 points in the nightcap before Selmer’s Jabari Melton went on a personal 8-0 scoring spree to trim the deficit to 10-8 after one. Selmer scored the first six points to begin the second half and pushed a 14-13 halftime advantage to 20-13. Simon Whitaker, who scored 11 of his team-high 15 points in

the second half, converted a conventional three-point chance to give the Lions the seven-point cushion. Bethel answered with five consecutive points from Nate Moore to get within 22-20 at the 1:23 mark of the period. SMS clamped down on defense over the final seven minutes. Will Moffett’s steal and layup extended the Lions lead to 28-20. Caleb Atkins hit the Lions lone three of the night a possession after Moore nailed one for Bethel as the Lions pushed the margin to 32-23. Tanner Kirk’s second of two layups upped the lead to 36-25 with under three minutes remaining. Tyler Blue scored six in the first three minutes of the game in helping Bethel jump out 10-0. Melton tallied eight straight

over the final 1:44 to get Selmer back in the game. In the opener, Bethel ran out to a 14-0 lead on the host Lady Lions. Lynnlee Brown bagged seven of her game-high 16 in the first eight minutes of the contest. The Lady Rebels led 22-4 at intermission with Brown accounting for nine of the digits.

By Lisa Forsythe, Editor While many may not recognize the line from the old Fogelberg song, there can be no denying the title applies to senior Kimberly “Kimmie” Davis. As Drum Major for this year’s marching band, Kimmie has been the perfect example of what every good band leader should be: tough yet encouraging, responsible yet fun-loving, and a diehard music-lover. Kimmie has auditioned

for the position all four years of high school, finally earning the coveted role for her senior year. To audition, the student creates a routine to a score of music, usually with the help of the previous field commander. They have to know the basics of conducting, which includes directing not just the tempo but also the dynamics of the music such as crescendoes and decrescendoes. The routine is performed before the entire band, who then vote

for their choice. They rate the student based on musicality, their attitude and helpfulness to other band members, and leadership qualities both within and outside of band. The student votes are combined with the director’s votes, and the newly appointed drum major gets to work. The duties of the drum major are varied and numerous. They are responsible for keeping band morale up, encouraging and helping each member to be both ON time and

IN time. The drum major runs the metronome and speaker at practice, they run warmups, and make plans for how to get stuff done with the section leaders. They manage a leader’s meeting each week, and work out ways to fix any problems that occur. Kimmie felt like the role of drum major allowed her to do more for the band that she was doing [as a section leader]. “I’d be more inclusive to the band, and I would succeed more than being a section leader or captain,” said Kimmie. “The greatest reward was showing everyone that I took being a drum major seriously,” said Kimmie. “It was an honor to be the freshmens’ first drum major, and for the band students to respect me and want me as their drum major meant a lot.” Kimmie’s favorite memory occurred this past weekend on the way

home from state competition, where the band finished fourth (out of 24 bands) overall. Kimmie earned a 3rd Place trophy. She said on the ride home, everyone began singing the songs from the field show, and she started conducting. “We finished the show singing, and then we all cried. It was really emotional. It was heartwarming. Everyone was sad, as seniors, because that was our last field performance.” Some of Kimmie’s favorite things Mr. Foret has taught her are 1)TCB - the band motto is Taking Care of Business 2)”To be early is to be on time, and to be on time is to be late.” 3)”One More Time” (perhaps her favorite - because it was NEVER just ONE more time!). Kimmie began playing clarinet in the sixth grade at SMS, and hopes to continue her band career next year at UTMartin. She will major in Criminal Justice and minor in Music Education, with the goal of becoming a Forensic Scientist. When asked if there was anything else Kimmie wanted to tell me, she asked if she could send a message to her band members and band parents. “It has been an honor being able to be your Drum Major for my last year, and I’m glad to have met every single one of you. I will miss you highly when I leave, and I love you all.”
