The Division II State Championships kick off the weekend-long tournament on December 2 with DI 1A, 3A and 5A on December 3 and DI 2A, 4A and 6A concluding the tournament on Dec. 4. The tournament is considered by local business proprietors to be a boon for Cookeville, TTU and the Upper Cumberland Region. “It has been estimated that during this three-day event, more than 30,000 visitors will spend close to $1 million on rooms, meals, gas, and shopping,” said Ottis 4 | WCTE Close-Up Phillips, SEC Enterprises, Inc. President. The planning stages began when a group comprised of representatives from Tennessee Tech, the city of Cookeville and the Cookeville Chamber of Commerce prepared and presented the winning bid to the TSSAA. After the announcement, Cookeville Chamber President George Halford and University Advancement Vice President Mark Hutchins asked Phillips to chair the Cookeville TSSAA Blue Cross Bowl Steering Committee. Phillips is in his second year of being involved with the TSSAA championships in Cookeville. “There is a tremendous amount of media coverage and public interest in this event throughout the state,” Phillips said. “The positive PR and exposure for Cookeville, TTU and the Highlands region is invaluable in creating public interest in our community from outside the region.” Phillips also went on to say he believes the university benefits by attracting future students that might not otherwise consider Tech. “We think this event creates a tremendous amount of community pride and reinforces the fact that this is a great place to live and work,” Phillips said. “The first year of games in Cookeville was really a touchdown. It was a great community effort and a first-class event. Visitors were made to feel welcome. This time, we know where the surprises are, and while last year the bar was set high, we know how to make it even better.” “This year I would like to encourage anyone who lives within reach of Cookeville and loves great high school football to buy their tickets early. Over 30,000 visitors over a three-day period made their way to the games last year and I would hate to see football fans disappointed.” “ immediate interest, and from that point forward it only took a couple of weeks to get the details locked down.” Rudolph liked what WCTE and the other TPTC stations “brought to the table.” “What was so appealing was the ability to do all eight football games, including the two Division II games that had not been covered in the past,” Rudolph said. “The Blue Cross Bowl football championships this season will mark the start of a new three-year partnership between TSSAA, the TPTC stations and PlayOn! Sports.” WCTE Upper Cumberland Public Television YOUR SOURCE FOR It has been estimated that during this three-day event, more than 30,000 visitors will spend close to $1 million on rooms, meals, gas, and shopping. ” FOOTBALL OTTIS PHILLIPS SEC ENTERPRISES, INC. PRESIDENT The Watson Brown Show “We’ll need volunteers too - they’re our greatest resource. We’ll need help taking tickets, ushering, distributing programs, parking and security. I’ll give volunteers two promises - you’ll have a great time and you will not leave hungry - we will feed you.” Although the focus is on football at this time, WCTE, in partnership with PlayOn! Sports, is happy to announce more TSSAA programming. Over the summer, the TSSAA was having a hard time renewing their contract with the previous distributor of the football and basketball events. “I worked up a scenario for TSSAA and they approved it and then we approached Becky and the other Tennessee Public Television Station Council stations,” PlayOn! Sports CEO David Rudolph said. “There was an Besides the wall-to-wall coverage of the football championships, PlayOn! Sports is also producing the volleyball and girls’ soccer championships. Beginning in the winter, it will also produce the eight boys’ and girls’ basketball championships for WCTE. Finally, in the spring, PlayOn! will produce boys’ soccer as well as boys’ and girls’ track from the Spring Fling events. “We plan to continue to grow the number of events and sports that we cover in future years,” Rudolph concluded.

G iven that WCTE is nestled underneath Tucker Stadium on the idyllic Tennessee Tech campus, it should come as no surprise the station offers Tech students a rare chance to learn hands-on by becoming a student worker. WCTE has a wide variety of jobs At WCTE for two years, Mysti Griffith is the longest-tenured student worker at the station. students can learn that include master control, production and learning the everyday ins and outs of a TV station. On top of all that, WCTE is small enough and informal enough that students have no trouble picking up competencies throughout their time at WCTE. “[Student workers] bring fresh ideas, enthusiasm and a technical and social media skill set that broadens services to the community,” said WCTE President and CEO Becky Magura. Magura would know – she was the station’s first intern. “I started out at this station as an intern,” said Magura. “I interned for over a year.” Tech plays a vital role in the community, so it’s beneficial to work with these students. In the past, it’s been the Education and Journalism Departments that provided 6 | WCTE Close-Up students, but because of specialization in areas such as master control, the Engineering and Computer Science Departments have been providing more students who bring special skills to the station. Four students are currently employed at WCTE; their majors vary anywhere from electrical engineering to computer science, Canaan Williams is soaking up the opportunity to learn at WCTE. “I see this job as a practical use of what prac I’m being taught in college,” said Rich. “It’s been worth it because I’ve been given a chance to learn quite a bit.” A senior accounting major, Mysti Griffith is the longest-tenured student worker at the station. Having been here for over two years, she still enjoys her job. “I still have a lot left to learn,” she said. “But it has solidified the idea that I want to work in broadcasting.” As for me, I’m Canaan Williams, a senior journalism major and I heard about the job through Brenda Wilson, assistant professor of journalism. I interned at the station during the Spring of 2010 and started working in master control in August of the same year. I want to learn as much as possible and this is the perfect place to learn because of the patience the employees have. They’re great teachers. Computer science major Nathaniel Rich puts his skills to use in WCTE’s master control. accounting journalism. unting and d jjou ou urnallism. Jinyoung Ryu, a native of Seoul, South Korea, started in August. A senior electrical engineering major, she came to know about the job through Charlie Wilkerson, Director of International Student Affairs. “I find the job challenging,” said Ryu. “I feel like this job will help me separate myself from others when it comes time to graduate and look for employment.” Nathaniel Rich is a junior majoring in computer science. He heard about WCTE while competing in a robotics world championship in Georgia. He agreed to volunteer with WCTE and was later hired to work in master control. Senior electrical engineering major Jinyoung Ryu hopes her experience at WCTE will give her an edge in the job market. living green Daytime Schedule Weekdays & Ready to Learn 5:00 AM Between the Lions 12:30 PM Sid the Science Kid 5:30 AM Maya & Miguel 1:00 PM Dinosaur Train 6:00 AM Arthur 1:30 PM Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That 6:30 AM Priscilla (M,W,F) / Functional Fitness 2:00 PM Curious George 7:00 AM Wordgirl A green L-R: Mark Dudney, Rima Austin, Jerry Jolley, Jimmy Allen, Becky Magura, Alan Tatum, Bobby Goode, Erica Duarte, Connie Albrecht, Pat Bagley.

According to Upper Cumberland Broadcast Council CEO Becky Magura, the $80,000 USDA Rural Development grant will help fund a year-long educational outreach campaign on-air, on-line, in print and through social media promoting the idea, “If you eat, thank a farmer.” “We are extremely excited about the support we have received from the USDA for our ‘Live Green and Prosper initiative,’” said Magura. “This grant will enable us to continue to connect the consumer with the agricultural producer while enhancing the economic development within the Upper Cumberland. The staff and board of directors at WCTE are grateful for the opportunity to continue this important work on behalf of our area farmers.” The USDA Rural Development “Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food” project works with local campaigns like “Live Green and Prosper” to create new economic opportunities in rural communities by better 2:30 PM Martha Speaks Saturdays 5:00 AM Mister Roger’s Neighborhood 12:30 PM This Old House 5:30 AM Bob the Builder 1:00 PM Ask This Old House 6:00 AM Curious George 1:30 PM Hometime 6:30 AM Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That 2:00 PM Woodwright’s Shop 7:00 AM Super Why 2:30 PM Beauty of Oil Painting 7:30 AM Wild Animal Baby Explorers 3:00 PM Creative Living 8:00 AM Thomas & Friends 3:30 PM Growing a Greener World 8:30 AM Angelina Ballerina 4:00 PM Victory Garden 9:00 AM Tennessee Crossroads 9:30 AM Tennessee Wildside 4:30 PM Farmers Almanac/ Living Smart 10:00 AM Southern Accents 5:00 PM America’s Heartland 10:30 AM Primal Grill 5:30 PM Motorweek 11:00 AM Chefs Afield 11:30 AM B Organic 6:00 PM Tennessee Sportsman 12:00 PM Everyday Foods 6:30 PM Tennessee Wildside Sundays 5:00 AM Sesame Street 6:00 AM Curious George 6:30 AM Cat in the Hat 7:00 AM Super Why 7:30 AM Dinosaur Train 8:00 AM Sid the Science Kid 8:30 AM Martha Speaks 9:00 AM Arthur 9:00 AM Wordgirl 10:00 AM Electric Company 12:00 PM Inside E Street/ This is America with Dennis Wholey 12:30 PM The McLaughlin Group 1:00 PM Ideas in Action 1:30 PM The Doctor Bob Show 2:00 PM Song of the Mountains 3:00 PM Volunteer Gardener 3:30 PM Garden Smart 4:00 PM Local Repeats/ Special Programming 10:30 AM Enviropals 5:00 PM Great Getaways 11:00 AM To the Contrary 5:30 PM Travelscope 11:30 AM Religion and Ethics 6:00 PM Globe Trekker November/December 2010 | 7 spotlight spotlighton on Cindy and Ottis Phillips Ottis Phillips Investing in public television and the Upper Cumberland O n Friday, October 1st, WCTE held the 4th annual Blues and Brews. It was advertised as a “toe-tappin’ kneesslappin’ hand clappin’ cure for the blahs.” It was all of that and more! Toes are still tapping. The event would not have enjoyed the same success without our food and beverage donors, and especially not without the help of one of our key strategic partners, Ottis Phillips. Ottis is the President of SEC Enterprises, Inc. If the company name does not immediately ring a bell, the names of 8 | WCTE Close-Up the delicious products SEC distributes may set your mouth to watering - products like Coors, Blue Moon, Miller, Samuel Adams, Guinness, Heineken and Corona, just to name a few. Ottis Phillips was born in Cookeville. His family arrived from North Carolina in the 1800’s. With a degree in Engineering and a Masters in Business, Ottis began his career with Fleetguard where he was transferred to Texas and met his wife Cindy. Together they “have raised five wonderful children” - Kristie, Beth, Parker, Emily and Hunter. Beth has given them two grandchildren, Leigh and Caden. “I am blessed to have such a supportive wife in Cindy. She is my partner in everything and without her, I wouldn’t have had the success I’ve had.” Ottis had an interest in the business of beer and his first job in beer distribution brought him back from Texas to Nashville and Coors of the Cumberland, “the first Coors distributorship east of the Mississippi.” When the company went bankrupt, Ottis and Cindy went back to Texas where Ottis was hired as an area sales manager for Coors. When the opportunity came to move back to Cookeville in 1990 to work for SEC as the GM, he grabbed it. In 1995, Harold Evans offered to sell him the business and Ottis jumped at that opportunity too. “Although I watch very little TV (football games are the exception), I have long been a fan and supporter of PBS,” said Ottis. “After moving back to Cookeville. we were more than happy to help WCTE as opportunities came about. Blues and Brews has been a great cooperative effort that benefits the station financially and provides exposure for our products. We also sponsor a board at the Great TV Auction. Investing in WCTE is an investment in the Upper Cumberland Region. Absolutely.” “I personally love the feature programs that WCTE carries. I like anything Ken Burns produces. I also like the Antiques Road Show and I try to catch some of the Smithville Fiddlers’ Jamboree. My grandkids watch morning childrens’programs like Super Why and Dinosaur Train. “WCTE provides a tremendous public service to our community that too many of us take for granted. WCTE is no different than my business in that they also have to pay utilities, payroll, equipment maintenance, repairs, rent, etc. Unfortunately they don’t have a paying customer base and steady revenue stream to pay the bills. Without voluntary public support and contributions, there would be no WCTE. “ area events Support WCTE this holiday season during Gaylord Opryland’s Country Christmas Hall of Trees A Christmas thank you to the City of Crossville E Upper Cumberland wood artist Brad Sells photo by Steven Flatt Premiere on the Plateau City of Crossville Hosts PBS Documentary Premiere at Palace BY BILLY LOGGINS City of Crossville Marketing/Public Relations Filmmaker Todd Jarrell T he world premiere of “Tree Safari: The Koa Connection,” a documentary coproduced by Todd Jarrell and WCTE-TV that focuses on Upper Cumberland wood artist Brad Sells, will premiere at the Palace Theatre in Crossville on Wednesday November 3 at 6 PM. “The Koa Connection” is the second in a series of documentaries focusing on Sells. “Tree Safari: A Sculptural Journey” focused on Sell’s trip to South Africa. “Koa” follows Sells to the volcanic slopes of Hawaii.

In 2004, WCTE and Jarrell undertook “a most ambitious television project,” following Sells’ “search for exotic woods for his unique sculptures.” After two years of travel, production and funding, the African-based part one of the series was distributed nationally on PBS, winning both “Telly” and “Aurora” awards. The original “Tree Safari” was one of only three featured titles (from over 450) in the 2008 PBS Home Video/Educational catalog.

It is also a New York immigrant’s tale. Lennon came to New York City in 1971 seeking what every other immigrant has sought: freedom — the freedom to be himself and not “Beatle John,” the freedom to live a normal life.

Now, National Geographic and PBS follow Souza inside the Obama White House — aboard Air Force One, backstage at the State of the Union and into the heart of the West Wing. It’s a behind-the-scenes look at the everyday grit of the American presidency and a chance to see what it’s like to cover the most powerful man in the world, for history.

The college’s annual concert combines the pageantry of opera, the grandeur of choral orchestral masterworks, and the intimacy of delicate solos. Christmas at Concordia will be produced for national broadcast by Twin Cities Public Television (tpt). Widely known for its artistic television productions of college Christmas celebrations for over twenty-five years, tpt offers this seasonal special in stunning HD and 5.1 Surround Sound. René Clausen combines sonorous and celebratory themes to create an aural tapestry. Taped on multiple stages and featuring both large and small ensembles, the diverse selections include sacred seasonal favorites such as “Oh Holy Night” and “Do You Hear What I Hear,” traditional American folk hymns like “I Wonder as I Wander,” and original compositions by René Clausen, including “There Is No Rose of Such Virtue.” Christmas at Concordia is also visually striking, featuring a magnificent art installation measuring 24’ high by 176’ wide that transforms the 2800-seat hall. These mural panels serve as a backdrop for the 450 musicians, creating a fresh yet traditional setting for this stunning performance. René Clausen is one of America’s leading choral orchestral composers, having written over 90 commissioned works for the Kings Singers, Mormon Tabernacle Choir and the National American Choral Directors Association Convention.

She was a wonderful, loving l Chr Christian ristian woman who radiated love and humor. hum mor. A few yyears ago, she volunteered to answer phones for a WCTE pl pledge ledge eventt and fell in love with the station. i She and Sh dh her h husband b d Cl Clifford ifford iff dd decided id then and there to help support WCTE by becoming members. Martha was a person so full of life that she made you feel more alive. She always gave a helping hand and made you laugh the entire time you spent with her. When she was recuperating from her chemo treatments, she would come over and sit in my garden - she was still was too weak to bend over and work. When she could, she would pick our berries, bag them up, freeze them, then go home bake a cobbler and bring it over while it still was warm. When I would try to get her to stop or rest, she would say “digging in the dirt and working with the fruits of the garden was therapy.” She and her husband had a little nursery called “Cloud Nine.” She said she felt closer to God working the soil, raising vegetables, fruits and socializing with people when they came to buy plants. It was not just extra income for them; it was a labor of love. She would be just as likely to give plants away to people who happened across her path. When cancer raised its ugly head, she fought it with every fiber of her being. Her faith was strong and her family and friends were by her side for months. Toward the end Martha asked me if I would sell her plants and donate the money to WCTE. It was a typical selfless act. She lived to bring things to life. We feel blessed that we had such a member of our WCTE family. Martha was a special person who left us too soon. I’ll never forget her kindness and I vow to pass it on whenever I can. Thank you, Martha. 2010 Business & Professional Members Abel Gardens CareAll Community Bank Cookeville Glass & Mirror First National Bank Hooper, Huddleston & Horner Medicine Chest Pharmacy Pro-Service Auto Glass Smith Pharmacy UC Orthopedic Surgery Winell Lee Wimberly, Lawson, Wright, Daves & Jones Zaxby’s THANK YOU for helping us MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
