Bulls Gap announces upcoming holiday events

BULLS GAP — Hawkins County’s littlest town is always big on special events, especially during the holiday season. That season is fast approaching, and the town already has its schedule of events for later this month and December set. Included in that schedule is something the town hopes will become an annual tradition — a three-day Christmas Tree Jubilee on the first weekend of December. Parade Bulls Gap typically kicks off the county’s slate of Christmas parades, and they are once again doing it under the lights, with the Bulls Gap Christmas Night Parade slated for 6 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 28. Participants for the parade will line up at 4:30 p.m. at Bulls Gap School, 315 Allen Dr. Judging of parade floats will begin at 5:30 p.m. The parade is the start of two weekends of events. Jubilee Last year, the town’s annual Christmas Tree lighting took place with part of the city park under construction, as crews were already working on the “new barn” that had been funded by a state grant. Those who attended didn’t let that get in the way of a fun evening, though. The good news is that the “new barn” opened months ago, and

RCS student recognized for winning contest

The Tuesday, Nov. 10 meeting of the Rogersville City Board of Education saw a student recognized for a significant achievement. At the start of the meeting, the board recognized the achievement of RCS fourth-grader Freya Holley, who represented the school as part of Eastman’s National Chemistry Week. Each year, Eastman hosts a competition for a design that will be printed on t-shirts for the event. All of the students submitted design ideas given the theme of “Chemistry under Construction.” Holley’s entry was selected as the winner, and featured on more than 700 t-shirts worn by local fourth-graders on Tuesday, Oct. 27, during Eastman’s event. Toward the end of the meeting, Director of Schools Edwin Jarnagin reported some of what could only be described as both good and bad news. The school’s enrollment has reached 670 students, a number that he said was the highest since he had been there. However, the high attendance has forced the school to “close the doors” on some grades. In between, the board signed off on additional compensation for some staff members. Any active certified staff member hired on or before Dec. 1 will receive an extra $125 a month. Non-certified personnel hired on or

Andy Banks has turned a life-long love of fishing into a lucrative business. Andy started Banks Custom Cranks about seven months ago, and his products are selling well with no sign of slowing down. Andy is a detective with the Rogersville Police Department. He has lived most of his life in Hawkins County. He remembered “my papaw got me started fishing when I was six or seven years old. It kind of stuck! I started fishing in a little pond behind my “Papaw Pete’s” house in Mohawk.” Fast forward to 2026; Andy’s boat broke down and he started painting lures to “have something to do.” “I had thought about painting lures for a while, but I didn’t think I was artistic,” he said. “I had never picked up an airbrush before. I found my calling!” Andy has any type of hard baits and all sizes of crank baits. These include jerk baits, glide baits and top water baits. Banks Custom Cranks are available locally at Onyx Salon, Caney Creek Market and Arrowhead Market. Andy has sold at Heritage Days and at the Fall Festival in Bulls Gap.

Rogersville passes ordinance tightly regulating data centers

A contentious issue involving regulation of datacenters in Rogersville was resolved at the Tuesday, Nov. 10 meeting with no consensus, but also without further controversy. In October, the Rogersville Planning Commission and legal advisors drew up a draft ordinance that, while not outright banning what it described as “high-density data centers” within the town limits, places so many regulations and restrictions on them that it would be very difficult to locate one in the town. Mayor John Metz openly supported the ordinance, feeling that it would protect the town from any such establishments and their potential side effects, such as high use of town electric and water resources, and noise pollution. However, since it is not a blanket ban, it will be very difficult for a data center or crypto mining business, either of which would fall in the scope of the ordinance, from mounting a legal challenge. There are many more avenues to challenge a complete ban than tight regulation. Metz also stated last month that at under the existing zoning regulations, Rogersville had no way to keep these businesses out. The ordinance passed its first reading last month by a 4-2 vote. Alderman Todd Biggs still expressed concern

New Kingsport Bridge will connect Brickyard Park to downtown

The City of Kingsport is getting a major boost to help connect Brickyard Park to downtown. Federal officials have awarded the city 5.6 million dollars to build a new pedestrian and bicycle bridge over the CSX railroad tracks. The bridge will link Brickyard Park directly to Centennial Park downtown. Local transportation officials say the project will give walkers and cyclists a much safer way to cross the tracks, while hopefully bringing more foot traffic to downtown shops and restaurants. As part of the deal with CSX, the existing street-level vehicle crossing will be permanently closed once the bridge is built. Kingsport will pitch in 1.4 million dollars to match the federal grant, adding to 2.6 million already secured from the state. Design work is finished, and construction is expected to kick off in 2027.
