It was an evening to remember. My Mamaw and Papaw had me come to their house to watch a circus on TV. Even though I was very small, I still remember all the colors, clowns, and the daring feats as the trapeze artists flew through the air. Papaw cut up a watermelon and placed the pieces in a pie pan, so as we watched the circus, we ate and spit seeds in the pans. From that time on, I wanted to see another circus.
UNION COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION WORKSHOP
Union County High School THURSDAY, OCTOBER 3, 2024 6:00 p.m.
Agenda
Knox County Baptist Disaster Relief is responding to the devastating storm damage that occurred in Upper East Tennessee. Sites for Incident Command Centers are being located so that Disaster Relief Teams can begin work in the area. Once locations are finalized, we will be needing 3-5 person feeding teams, shower and laundry teams, assessors at different locations, flood recovery teams, chainsaw teams, and chaplains. Because of the significant need, we will be collecting supplies from the attached list as well as monetary donations.

In 1996, a young man from Union County’s Horace Maynard High School set out to explore the field of diesel mechanics. Since the options for continued education in this field were more limited at that time, this Union County native attended a trade school in Middle Tennessee, later returning to his hometown as he ventured to begin his career.
Securing a position in Knoxville in 1997, this young man began his professional journey as a diesel mechanic and began trudging through the technical and personal skill development that would promise him a long and lucrative career.
