Lakeshore Pavilion is latest jewel added to beloved Knoxville Park | Opinion

Lakeshore Park celebrated the opening of the Lakeshore Pavilion with a ribbon cutting on the highest hill at the beloved Knoxville park. Simon Bradbury, the new CEO of the park, was joined by Mayor Indya Kincannon. Lakeshore Park was created 35 years ago when Tennessee Gov. Ned McWherter agreed to transfer the land that had housed a mental health hospital to the city. It is now managed by the Lakeshore Conservancy with the city assisting and the city mayor serving on its board of directors. The local effort to create the park was led by Jimmy Haslam III and attorney Caesar Stair III, along with me when I was mayor. The first challenge was to demolish the old buildings that came with the land. The hospital at one time housed more than 2,000 patients. Longtime Knoxville arborist Jim Cortese has received the 2026 Distinguished Achievement Award for Human Issues in Horticulture from the American Society for Horticultural Science. He wrote "John Muir Climbs a Tree and other Tree Tales," which is available from various bookstores. More about him can be found at www.wjimcortese.com .

Maryville Alcoa Animal Rescue Center Dog of the Week: SpongeBob

Readers may remember SpongeBob, the furriest little sponge that lived under the sea. He lived with his friends, Harry the dogfish and Patty, the dog shark. SpongeBob loved swimming in the ocean. He’d play hide-and-seek in sunken ships with slippery eels. When he caught them, he’d shake and shake, and toss them through the water. “Wheeee!” they’d cry. SpongeBob also loved sampling all the local fare, like crabs, lobsters, and oysters. One time he tried a mouthful of seaweed. “Blech,” he said, spitting it out. “I need something meatier.” He’d scratch a scratchy spot on the coral, and at night he’d use anemones as pillows, laying his little head in their soft tentacles. Life in the ocean was fun for little SpongeBob, but he had so much love to give and no one to give it to. After all, sharks aren’t exactly cuddly. So one day, he breached the surface and blew a stream of water into the air. “Look, a whale…wait a minute…” someone called from the shore. SpongeBob caught a wave and rode it all the way to the Maryville Alcoa Animal Center, where he now waits for his furever home. The perfect home for sweet eight-month-old SpongeBob

‘My Mayfly’ Comes Home to East Tennessee for World Premiere at Film Fest Knox

My Mayfly, the first feature film from writer-director Paula Kay Hornick, will celebrate its world premiere at Film Fest Knox on Saturday, November 14, at 9:15 p.m. at Regal Riviera, Theater 2, 510 S. Gay Street in downtown Knoxville. Starring Adelaide Clemens with Alicia Witt and Johnathon Schaech, it was shot in the Great Smoky Mountains and Knoxville. The film follows a woman whose relentless pace of life has little room for the people and things that matter most. When she embarks on a solo fly-fishing trip to prove something to herself, a harrowing experience in the wilderness and an encounter with a mysterious forest ranger force her to confront the past she’s been running from and reconsider what truly matters.
