“Simple Tips for a Better Barbecue” opened the summer-hosting season with practical guidance for the grill, while “Hunt. Hide. Find. Repeat: Geocaching” introduced the GPS-driven treasure hunt that turns the whole area into a playground — a genuinely fun way to get outside with nothing but a phone and a sense of adventure.
“Beating the Heat in the Downtown Streets” surveyed the ways to stay cool while enjoying the summer's downtown events, and “Fun at the FAIR!” previewed the rides, food and spectacle of one of the season's signature gatherings. For Father's Day, Christina Chittenden made the case that honoring dad need not mean a flashy, expensive gift. An artist profile gave the issue its soul, its subject describing a total devotion to the craft: “Art is my full-time job. I call it my life because it's everything.”
The recurring departments round out a June number made for a Tennessee summer — the grill, the geocaching trail, the fairgrounds and a meaningful Father's Day, an issue that rewards readers for putting down the phone and heading outside into the sunshine.
“Simple Tips for a Better Barbecue,” brought by Tennova Healthcare, set out to make grilling season both healthier and a little tastier. Cooking over an open flame is a near-universal pleasure, the feature allowed, and an invitation to get creative — have you ever tried grilled romaine? — but it comes with a downside: the heterocyclic amines, or HCAs, that form when meat and fish meet high heat. The piece offered ways to keep the flavor while trimming the risk.
