Greenbrier Hillsâ€™ new houses thrive in pleasant setting Madison Living 5

reenbrier Hills of Madison is one of the newest neighborhoods in the community, situated in the convenient and popular western perimeter of the city. Murphy Homes is the builder for this development. “The Murphys have been developing and building in Madison since the late 1970s. So, they

are not only experienced, they are fully vested in making sure that the community thrives in the future,” Jeff York said. York works as listing agent and team leader at Matt Curtis Real Estate Inc. “Greenbrier Hills is a one-of-a-kind community on a gorgeous piece of property. The entryway will be extensively landscaped,” York added. The

grounds of the neighborhood are open to pleasant views, including the stocked fish pond. “The homes can be customized, or we can even start from scratch with a brand new home plan,”

he said. York tells everyone, “We like to color outside the lines.” A designer, who is on staff, will walk buyers through the selection process and select a varying color scheme for the home to make decorating easy. The street address of the model home is 11 Tubman Drive, Madison. The neighborhood is zoned for Heritage Elementary School, Liberty Middle School and James Clemens High School. Greenbrier Hills is located on Hardiman Road, about two miles west of County Line Road. Amenities available to Greenbrier Hills residents include a swimming pool area with a cabana and two restrooms. The streets have sidewalks for the convenience of health-conscious homeowners and their children. The community has underground utilities. “We also plant mature oak trees, which we call ‘street trees,’ to line the streets. This feature creates a real community feel, instead of an old cotton-field feel like other neighborhoods in the area,” York said. A mature “street tree” stands proud in the front lawn, and yards are fully sodded with vibrant grass. Houses in Greenbrier Hills are built in keeping with Craftsman style architecture. The homes’ exteriors have brick in rich brown tones with plenty of character, stone and siding.

Houses have four bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, along with a bonus room that adapts to serve any purpose that the owner wants. “The bonus room is an excellent second living area for the three upstairs bedrooms,” York said. “The kitchen has granite counters, a large island, gas range, hardwood flooring and a tile backsplash.” The master suite is isolated and features a glamour bath with sinks in separate vanities, marble countertops, a tile shower, marble tub and tile floors. Other baths also offer marble tops and tile floors. The mudroom area features a custom-built cubby, extremely handy for outdoor projects and hobbies. The great room has a gas fireplace. All of the living areas have oak hardwood floors for rich character and ease of upkeep. Handsome crown molding distinguishes all living areas, as well as the master bedroom. A home measures approximately 2,500 square feet. With all the comforts of a Greenbrier Hills home, “it’s going to be hard for a homeowner to say which room will be their favorite,” York said. For more information about homes in Greenbrier Hills, call 256-715-6699 or email murphyhomes@ mattcurtisrealestate.com. The office address for Murphy Homes is 18 Main Street in Madison; for information, call 256-344-7449.

Aloha, y’all! My name Is Angie, and I am so excited to share a few recipes with you. A little background on me: I am firstgeneration Chinese and grew up in Hawaii. How awesome is that, right? I grew up knowing Easter as dying eggs, filling plastic eggs with candy and then hunting for them. I did not know why Easter was Easter until I grew up. I didn’t experience the real meaning of celebrating the holiday, nor did I have an Easter meal, until my early 20s. Here I share with you all something different and non-traditional for an Easter meal. I hope you’ll enjoy this and would love to hear how you like it.

WINE-BRAISED SHORT RIBS 5-6 lbs. bone-in short ribs 1 lb. bag baby carrots 2 onions, halved and then quartered 4-6 stalks celery, chopped into bite size pieces 10 cloves of garlic, minced 2-3 bay leaves 2-3 rosemary sprigs 2-3 thyme sprigs

1 tsp. whole peppercorn 3 bottles of dry red wine 1 cup flour House seasoning (1/2 cup onion powder, 1/2 cup garlic salt, 3 tbsp. black pepper, 3 tbsp. dried parsley) 3 tbsp. vegetable/canola oil 1 tbsp. salt

Blend 1 cup flour with 1 tsp. house seasoning. Sprinkle each short rib with house seasoning on all sides. Coat each short rib in the seasoned flour and tap off excess flour. In a large pot, add the 3 tbsp. oil, and on med/high heat, brown short ribs on all sides. Do this in batches and place on a plate. Once complete, add the minced garlic and onions to the pot and stir for a minute or two. Add the carrots and celery. Stir to combine the garlic and onions. Take the browned short ribs and nestle them into the veggies. Add in the juice thatâ€™s on the plate â€“ every bit counts as yummy goodness. Add all the wine, sprigs of rosemary and thyme, bay leaves and bring to a boil. Once boiled, turn heat to low and let simmer and slow cook for three to four hours.

SCALLOPED POTATOES 6 large or 2.5 lbs. red potatoes 2 cups milk 3 tbsp. butter 3 tbsp. flour 3 tbsp. olive oil 2 tsp. house seasoning 4 cloves of garlic 1 thyme sprig (leaves only)

1 rosemary sprig (leaves only) 1/4 tsp. parsley 1/4 tsp. salt 1/8 tsp. black pepper 3 cups of shredded cheese on hand (I had 1 cup of Italian five cheese, 1½ cup mozzarella and 1/2 cup Parmesan)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Peel potatoes and slice thinly. If you have a mandolin, use it. Grease a baking dish, either glass or ceramic, then add the peeled potatoes in a mixing bowl with the olive oil and sprinkle a teaspoon of the house seasoning. Toss and make sure each slice is coated. Layer the baking dish with the sliced potatoes. Top it with 1 cup of cheese. Add the second layer. Set aside. On a chopping board, pile the garlic cloves, leaves of rosemary and thyme, salt and pepper. Let your frustration out and finely chop and mince this all together. What you get is a garlicy, herby aroma of goodness! In a sauce pot, melt butter. Add the flour and cook it for a few minutes until it’s nicely incorporated. Slowly add the milk to the pot and cook until it’s smooth. Do not overcook or it will get thick and gummy.

Once that is all combined, add the garlic herb mixture. Let that cook for a few minutes so the flavors will come out, then take the pot off the heat and add the remaining cheeses. Mix until it’s all melted. Top your potatoes with the cheese mixture, cover with foil and place it in the oven for about 40-45 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 20-30 minutes until you see a little golden brown.

ROASTED BRUSSEL SPROUTS 1-2 lbs. of Brussel sprouts (quartered or halved, depending on size) Olive oil Salt and black pepper

1 cup balsamic vinegar 1/4 cup sugar A pinch or two of salt Honey

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil (dull side up). Toss Brussel sprouts with olive oil, salt and black pepper in a big bowl. Spread them out evenly onto the baking sheet so it is one layer of Brussel sprouts. Roast in the oven for about 20 minutes. While Brussel sprouts are roasting, add balsamic vinegar and sugar to a small pot and bring to a boil. Once it is boiling, stir it and turn down the heat just so it can simmer but not be boiling. Let this cook down until it has reduced by half. You want it to be syrupy. Take it off the heat and let it cool. Check the Brussel sprouts, which should have nice brown edges. Remove from oven and plate. When serving, drizzle the glaze and top it with drizzles of honey. 12 Madison Living

YMCA invites children to Cha-La-Kee

YMCA

STORY AND PHOTO BY HEART OF THE VALLEY YMCA

emember your best summer ever? No doubt it was filled with friends, adventure and – believe it or not – learning experiences. When school is out, children still need activities that help them learn, grow and thrive, and summer camp provides a fun, engaging frontier for exploration and personal growth. To keep children’s minds and bodies active, the Hogan Family YMCA offers onsite day camp as well as shuttle service to YMCA Camp Cha-La-Kee at Lake Guntersville. Besides day camp, Cha-La-Kee offers resident camp and counselor-in-training opportunities.

On land, they can enjoy zip lining, archery, riflery, horseback rides and games under the “Airnasium” shaded pavilion. The YMCA gives five reasons why children should attend summer camp:

Kids can stay cool swimming, kayaking, canoeing, banana boating and “blobbing.”

ADVENTURE: Children can try activities not available in their neighborhoods. HEALTHY FUN: Camp provides active, stimulating entertainment that engages body and mind. PERSONAL GROWTH: Campers develop confidence and stretch their independence by taking on new challenges and responsibilities.

FRIENDSHIPS: Bonds formed at camp are important and lasting. MEMORIES: Summer camp fosters lifelong memories. In its 60th year, YMCA Camp Cha-La-Kee continues to give youth an enriching, safe experience with caring staff who model positive, character-building values. Day camp is offered June 5-July 28 from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Cost is $95 -$215 per week. Members save $35-$175 per week on camp. To ensure that all youth have the chance to experience camp, the YMCA offers financial assistance. Registration is online at www.ymcaFUN.org.

Steve and Mickie Smith moved to Madison in 1994.

Business

perspective Steve Smith brings particular expertise to council WRITTEN BY GREGG L. PARKER PHOTOGRAPHS BY JEN FOUTS-DETULLEO AND CONTRIBUTED

14 Madison Living

teve Smith represents District 2 on Madison City Council with a keen financial perspective and proven dedication. Smith said he decided to run when then Councilman Steve Haraway transitioned to county commissioner. “The city needed someone to continue to put in time and effort daily. I felt I had the right skill set to run and make a difference,” he said. For his second term, Smith felt the same about the position – only magnified. “What was different is I truly understood the importance of how daily decisions made by elected officials and employees affect our city for years down the road.” Smith takes pride in his work for the Madison recreation campus on Celtic Drive. “I hate it turned political and was voted down. The rec campus could have been the jewel of Madison,” he said. “During the campaign, I was told to downplay the rec campus because I would lose votes, but I owned it and got more votes than any other candidate.” The recreation center would have been “an economic driver by bringing people to Madison and was going to provide desperately needed water for our swim community, create investment on Madison Boulevard and provide a revenue stream to invest back into our other parks. I’ll continue to push for a rec campus in some form. Our city has to invest in itself and our citizens to continue as the top-rated place to live,” he added. In prioritizing city needs, Madison City Schools ranks No. 1 because the district’s reputation attracts most people to relocate here, Smith said. “The best way to support our schools is financial. Creating revenue must be our No. 2 priority.” Surprisingly, opening new businesses isn’t necessarily the answer. Smith said he believes most residents have a limited monthly budget, and new businesses don’t create a revenue stream. City leaders need to attract out-of-towners into Madison. Whether Town Madison, a new rec complex or something else, leaders must create a long-term vision and “be bold enough to go down that path.” “Madison has some of the best employees any municipality or business could ever ask for,” Smith said. “They work in an environment where they have a new boss every four years, who could change the city’s direction on a whim, and the employees are powerless.” A Nashville native, Smith worked after college for Consolidated Freightways, which led him and wife Mickie to move to Madison in 1994. He earned bachelor’s degrees in business administration and computer information systems from Trevecca Nazarene University in Nashville, where he played baseball. One summer, he played in Holland, Spain and Czechoslovakia. He later worked as fleet manager for First Fleet Truckload Carriers in Huntsville. In 2007 he founded his own businesses.

Mickie has worked at Adtran for 22 years. Their son Spencer, 22, is a senior at the University of Alabama and son Chandler, 20, is a sophomore at University of Alabama in Huntsville. The Smiths attend Asbury United Methodist Church. During his career, Steve best remembers a manager at Consolidated Freightways. Steve was a recent college graduate; the manager, having 25-plus years with the company, was a taskmaster demanding near perfection. Luckily, Steve’s parents taught him to

work at the best of his ability. Eventually, the manager realized his work ethic and prepared him to advance within the company. Steve said he believes his major accomplishment on the council has been helping “our city turn around financially.” He advocated for city policy updates to guarantee sound financial decisions, regardless of who wins elections. The council and mayor “are only as good as those who fill the spot, but sound policy that helps govern decisions can help ensure Madison thrives long after I leave.”

Music at Messiah Concert series blesses community with classical compositions WRITTEN BY GREGG L. PARKER PHOTOGRAPHS BY JEN FOUTS-DETULLEO AND CONTRIBUTED 24 Madison Living

n select Sunday afternoons, the Music at Messiah concert series fills the sanctuary of Messiah Lutheran Church with rich sounds from the talents of both accomplished virtuosos and young prodigies. With Music at Messiah, organizers wanted “to create something new in Madison to promote live musical performances by professional or semi-professional musicians, including collegiate performers on the verge of a promising career,”

RIO “Music has long EROUIE REOIREI M FIFF been an important part of the Lutheran tradition.”

spokesperson John Shriver said. Soloists and small ensembles have presented most concerts, although a 50-member choir has participated. “The only real limitation is music appropriate for a sacred space,” Shriver said. In spring 2013, Shriver nonchalantly mentioned his idea for classical concerts to Bob Gustafson. Gustafson enthusiastically agreed, and they soon enlisted help from Lois Graff, director of music ministries at Messiah Lutheran. The trio collaborated to found Music at Messiah. “Lois is an excellent pianist, organist and teacher – an angel loved by everyone who meets her. Her music intelligence and sensibility profoundly shaped Music at Messiah,” Shriver said. In the community, audiences often enjoy Graff ’s talent as she conducts music camps, teaches about 70 students in private lessons and accompanies the Bob Jones and James Clemens high school choruses and other groups.

“Lois is an excellent pianist, organist and teacher – an angel loved by everyone who meets her. Her music intelligence and sensibility profoundly shaped Music at Messiah.” — John Shriver UPPER: Messiah Lutheran members who assist with Music at Messiah are Meredith Kilby, from left, John Shriver and Lois Graff.

After receiving approval from church leaders, the founders scheduled Music at Messiah’s first concert in November 2013 with a performance by Redstone Arsenal Brass Quintet. In addition to a place of worship, Messiah’s sanctuary was designed to provide excellent acoustics. “Music has long been an important part of the Lutheran tradition. Martin Luther

said, ‘Next to the Word of God, the noble art of music is the greatest treasure in the world,’” Shriver said. Messiah sanctuary’s acoustics and intimate setting “encourage the musician to reveal his or her talent and instrument’s beauty. Heavy wooden walls and ceiling, and their geometry, create a cavity that enhances not only strings and woodwinds but even brass. It’s like being inside a gigantic cello.” Live performance entails a special ambience, unmatched by even superior recordings. “A piano teacher once told me that recordings are like canned soup – it’s just not the same as the real thing,” Shriver said. Music at Messiah also serves as church outreach and “spreading the Word through music.” Each year, about four concerts are held, usually one each season. Concerts are free, but organizers do accept donations. Currently, the concerts’ budget requires a focus on musicians within a few hundred miles of Madison. All musicians are paid, unless they decline or can’t accept payment. To select a performer, the committee and friends recommend artists. Gustafson and Graff have extensive contacts, an invaluable source in scheduling concerts. Concert genres have ranged from classical pieces of Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Chopin, Ravel and Debussy to modern stylists like George Gershwin and Paul McCartney. Concerts have covered a myriad of configurations, including instrumental ensembles like The Brophy Sisters on violin/piano, Gary Parks and Ingrid von Spakovsky on oboe/piano, the Solar Winds Woodwind Quintet and the Atlanta Guitar Trio, as well as soloists including pianists Debar Saylor and Aleksandra Kasman; vocalists Andrew Nalley and Erin McDaniels; and organist Tom Alderman. During light receptions after concerts, the audience can mingle with the musicians. The OWLS (Older and Wiser Lutherans) often serve appetizers. Music at Messiah’s committee now includes graphic artists Meredith Kilby and Taylor Burton, publicist Dana Burton and attorney Jean Stuart. Having retired in May 2016, Shriver worked as professor of chemistry with a cross appointment in biological sciences at the University of Alabama in Huntsville. He has started a piano tuning business, The Well-Tempered Tune LLC, and is exploring ways to help at-risk children in Madison, specifically with the LEAP Academy. April 23, classical guitarist Phil Weaver will return for a solo concert. Messiah Lutheran Church at 7740 U.S. 72 W. hosts Music at Messiah.

Changing direction Eagle Rehab rebrands to Compass Physical Therapy WRITTEN BY GREGG L. PARKER PHOTOGRAPHS BY JEN FOUTS-DETULLEO AND CONTRIBUTED

28 Madison Living

agle Rehab has shifted directions to a new name, Compass Physical Therapy but has preserved its founding goals. “In 2005, Eagle Rehab had its humble beginnings in Madison and has had the privilege as physical therapy clinic of choice for many Madison residents,” Stephanie Johnson said. The clinic outgrew its original space of about 2,000 square feet in 2007 and moved to its current address at 44 Hughes Road, Suite 1050 with about 6,000 square feet. Also in 2007, Johnson added pediatric physical therapy and massage therapy. In 2013, Johnson’s role with the company changed from founding CFO to CEO/sole owner. In recent years, she “has been slowly navigating through challenges of business ownership” without losing the practice’s original focus. “The only way to truly make the company mine is giving it a name that reflects my vision for the company’s future. Compass Physical Therapy was born,” she said. “A compass is a tool that gives you guidance, points you in the right direction, much like physical therapists guide patients through the rehabilitation process after an injury, during pain and with regaining function,” Johnson said. “As we’re navigating our new direction as a company, it’s a natural fit.” However, Compass is not a new company. The same staff will help patients. A corporate takeover didn’t occur. Compass isn’t part of a chain. “We’re still the same group of people who has been serving the Madison community since 2005, focused on exceptional customer service and physical therapy beyond expectation,” Johnson said. “Our big-

gest compliment is when a patient refuses to go anywhere else.” Two facts distinguish Compass Physical Therapy from other clinics, Johnson said. One, that Compass is Madison’s only facility to offer the Postural Restoration Institute’s approach for natural postural alignment that relieves acute and chronic pain and heals injury. Humans’ asymmetrical bodies are susceptible to bone mismatches and strained muscles that lead to chronic pain and often injury. In Johnson’s 19 years of practice, PRI has been her most effective technique. The second exclusive aspect of Compass is that the facility is Madison’s only Pediatric Physical Therapy. Compass’ specialized wing accommodates young patients, with an infant room for babies and an indoor playground for toddlers and adolescents. Therapists help children avoid re-injuries when they return to sports. The staff ’s teamwork translates to optimum care for patients, Johnson said. Compass treats both adult and pediatric populations. Kate Bartley has 24 years in physical therapy for all ages. Licensed PT assistants, Joshua Arney and Gary Stinnett, have worked with the company nine and eight years, respectively. Arney specializes in treating

scoliosis and handles PRI procedures while Stinnett, a certified kinesio taping practitioner, is certified as a personal trainer to help youth and adults. “Lisa Spears, our sensational massage therapist, provides a spa-like experience for her patients and has been with our company nine years. Dana Holguin, office manager for 11 years, recently transitioned to billing manager,” Johnson said. Jessica McDonald has served as office manager five years. “Jessica and Dana provide exceptional customer service. “You’re only as strong as your team. I couldn’t ask for a better group of people.” Johnson said she decided to enter the medical profession at an early age. “I became a physical therapist because the flexibility allows me to focus attention on my most important asset: my family. My husband Michael and I are in the throes of raising four fantastic young men.” In 1998 Johnson earned a degree in physical therapy at the University of South Alabama in Mobile. In community outreach, Compass most recently conducted “Fund Like an Eagle Fun Run/Walk” to benefit Chive Charities. “Firelight,” a free monthly screening, guides parents to needed services for their child. The practice also contributes to local sports teams, Delta Zeta sorority, churches, schools, food drives and coat drives. Johnson volunteers with advisory boards for Calhoun Community College and high schools.

Madison has lots for the guys to do throughout the season,” explained Will Wodka, who works as Havoc’s broadcaster, media relations coordinator, group sales representative and “Voice of the Havoc” on mixlr. com/HuntsvilleHavoc and SPHL Live online payper-view. “With Carrington Cove’s proximity to the arena and practice facility, it made sense.” Most hailing from northern United States or Canada, players have adapted well to the South’s climate and culture. “Most guys golf when given the opportunity on their off days,” Head Coach Glenn Detulleo said. 32 Madison Living

Organized in the 2004-2005 season, Huntsville Havoc was one of the original eight teams of the Southern Professional Hockey League. Keith Jefferies owns the team. Detulleo, fifth bench boss in team history, is in his fifth full season as coach. Detulleo played during the 2011-2012 season but took over as head coach later that year. “The 2016-2017 season is the best start in team history. Huntsville saw a franchise best 12-game point streak,” Wodka said. “Our team’s strength has been our speed and work ethic. Our group plays a fast game and competes extremely hard on a daily basis,” Detulleo said. “As most teams, we’re always working to be a stronger defensive team.” This season, the Havoc recorded their 20th win Jan. 7, 2017 – “quickest in the 13-year history,” Wodka said. “By Feb. 17, the Havoc had 15 wins on the road, the most in franchise history. By March 1, the Havoc had registered the most season goals by any league team.” The season has had heart-racing excitement. On the road to Roanoke, the Havoc trailed the Rail Yard Dawgs by 2-1 heading into the third; Huntsville scored, sending the game into overtime. “In the three-on-three extra frame, the Havoc saw a power play opportunity where Dylan Nowakowski buried the winner off a one-timer,” Wodka said.

“Our marketing campaign this season has been WEAREHSV ... We’re Huntsville’s only professional sports team and want to be more connected.” — Will Wodka

Another pulse-rousing game was Havoc’s 3-2 win against Peoria Rivermen at the Von Braun Center. “Scoring in the first two periods, Huntsville gave up two in the middle frame. No one broke the tie in the third; teams headed to overtime. With oddman rushes on both sides of the ice, new forward Johnny Daniels walked in with Jordan Wood on a two-on-one break. Daniels took the shot that first went off the crossbar; Wood came in and scooped up the rebound for the Havoc,” Wodka said. On the road, the team carries 18 players – 16 skaters and two goaltenders. Havoc’s oldest player is 30-year-old Stuart Stefan, while forward John

Schiavo is youngest at 22. “Havoc newcomer Tyler Noseworthy traveled the farthest to get to Huntsville. A drive to the Rocket City from his hometown in St. John, Newfoundland in Canada would be about 2,711 miles,” Wodka said. The Havoc’s dream is to win the championship every year, “but there’s much more to the story. As an organization, we pride ourselves as a top-notch, affordable entertainment package – whether a date, with the kids or people traveling on business,” Wodka said. In addition, the team wants to be more invested in the community. “Our marketing campaign this season has been WEAREHSV

(We are Huntsville) ... We’re Huntsville’s only professional sports team and want to be more connected. Community service is big in our organization, whether it’s attending charity events with mascots or raising money through jersey auctions,” he said. “Huntsville is a ‘big little city’ in that we take care of each other. We want to continue to do that,” Wodka said. Along with Detulleo and Wodka, Havoc’s staff includes assistant coach Jesse Kallechy, head athletic trainer Jason Lopez, head equipment manager Billy Welker, President Ashley Balch, Vice President/corporate sales director Clay Coleman, ticket sales director Dan Conrad and digital media director Justin Strickland. Havoc plays all 28 regular-season home games at VBC Propst Arena on Pharmacy First ice. Practices are open to the public at 10:30 a.m., either at VBC or Benton H. Wilcoxon Municipal Ice Complex, Havoc’s official practice facility. Huntsville Havoc’s office address is 700 Monroe Street, VBC (by the Box Office) in Huntsville. For information, call 256-518-6160 or visit Facebook/HuntsvilleHavoc, Twitter @HuntsvilleHavoc. Mobile apps are available for iOS and Android.
