Rafting season in Cocke County brings chance to kickstart economy after Helene
HARTFORD, Tenn. (WATE) — The Cocke County community is rebuilding six months since the area was devastated by Hurricane Helene. As a major attraction in the area, rafting companies, like Ober Mountain Whitewater Rafting, are among those getting back on their feet. 'As a community, everybody came together. It didn't matter if we were competitors or not. Everybody was helping everyone and that made a huge impact, I think, on where we are today and the progress is being made,' said Ober Rafting operations director Lacy Bramlett. As Cocke County continues economic recovery, sheriff's office seeks new hires Bramlett said of the 11 rafting companies in the area, most sustained some kind of damage from Helene. 'Typically in a three-month season, we're seeing roughly 200,000 tourists coming to this area to go whitewater rafting, so the rehabilitation of our community and our business models is super important to the local and state economy,' she said. As a major economic driver for the area, she said many companies sprang into action after the hurricane knowing they would only have a few months to be back on their feet. 'The progress has been made has been tremendous, but there's still some to go. Interstate 40 is open, but now that adds traffic and things like that to the dynamic of taking a rafting trip,' Bramlett said. 'Those are all things that we're navigating on a daily basis, and we're just moving along as quickly and swiftly as we can while also making sure our guest experience is top notch.' Tennessee bill to require schools to teach 'success sequence' of life path passes Senate While she told 6 News some companies have already started their rafting tours, Ober still has a few more months until they open. However this year, even for annual rafters, the experience will be brand-new. 'To be in love with something like whitewater rafting, to be kind of your niche in the world and your passion, it's really interesting to watch something you love so much change everything around you, but it really showed the power of water,' said Bramlett. 'It made huge topographical changes, all the way from western North Carolina to here, and it's a historic event that most people are referring to as a thousand year flood because of the topography and geological changes that happened, during that event.' She said because of those changes the waterways will look and feel different this year, but they will still have family-friendly rafting. By employing nearly 400 people each summer, she also added that not only will the company help bring tourism back, but it will also help the families here in Cocke County. ▶ See more top stories on Ober Mountain Whitewater Rafting will open on May 24.

4 Outdated Home Features That Are Easy to Fix—and 1 That's a Major Red Flag
We may earn revenue from the products available on this page and participate in affiliate programs. Learn More › Remember sunken living rooms, wood paneling, and brass bathroom fixtures? Home design trends come and go like the fashion runway, and can taint your view of a property when you are in the market for a new home. 'I've been in real estate long enough to see home trends rise and fall,' says Eric Bramlett, realtor and owner of Bramlett Real Estate in Austin, Texas. 'What was once the must-have feature can quickly become the thing buyers want to rip out first. The good news is that a lot of outdated design choices are easy to fix and shouldn't stop you from buying a house.' However, some old features that go beyond aesthetics can be both expensive and dangerous to remedy, says Bramlett. 'Structural problems, outdated electrical, and hazardous materials are a different story. When you're buying a house, focus on what actually matters long-term. If it's something you can change with a little time and money, don't let it scare you away, but if it's a major safety or structural issue, that's when you need to think twice,' he advises. We spoke with homebuyers and real estate professionals to determine which outdated home features top their list. Here are four outdated home trends once in vogue that have fallen out of favor, but are fairly easy to change or update, along with one trend that is a total deal-breaker. Back in the day, before every family member had a cell phone and smart home systems were invented, bulky plastic intercoms were used to communicate with family members throughout the home. When touring a possible new home, these antiquated devices that were popular in the 1980s might catch your eye and make you wonder if you can live with them. The good news is that they are easy to remove or cover up with a bookshelf, piece of artwork, or hutch. Many of the people we spoke with mentioned outdated, unattractive walls, such as bold paint colors, loud wallpaper, decorative wallpaper borders, and stenciling on the walls. Writer Gary Wollenhaupt recently moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado, and dealt with old-fashioned walls. 'We were able to overlook accent walls and stencils because we've repainted many times,' he says. 'Apparently, the previous owners went to Paris on vacation and there are several Paris-themed stencils in the house, like one for a historic perfume shop in the primary bedroom and one for a patisserie on the kitchen pantry door.' Although Wollenhaupt has yet to address the Paris theme in his new home, he knows that these are easy fixes. They're the type of outdated home feature that shouldn't turn you away if you otherwise love the house. 'Some people see a house stuck in the 1990s and assume it's a bigger issue than it is, but a weekend project with a paint roller changes everything,' says Bramlett. Sheldon Sutherland, retail expert and owner of Epoxy Werx in Surprise, Arizona, recently purchased his first home and looked up to see unappealing popcorn ceilings. 'I came across a beautiful house from the 1990s, which had popcorn ceilings,' he says. 'Initially, this out-of-trend characteristic turned me off, but then I realized this cosmetic problem could be solved with a little effort and money,' he says. Dealing with the ceilings helped Sutherland understand home features in the market that are mostly cosmetic and easy to fix vs. structural changes 'that can completely ruin the deal.' Note: If popcorn ceilings were installed in 1980 or before, the texture may contain asbestos that requires professional removal for safety. While outdated lights are an eyesore, they are relatively easy and inexpensive to replace and shouldn't deter someone from buying a property. Content marketing and brand specialist Jasmine Charbonier recently bought a home in Tampa, Florida. She was turned off by its awful Hollywood-style vanity lights, shiny brass bathroom fixtures, and fluorescent box lighting. However, she said they are all easy to swap out as a quick DIY project. Bramlett agrees: 'They might look bad, but replacing light fixtures is quick and cheap. These kinds of updates don't cost much and shouldn't be a dealbreaker if the bones of the house are good,' he says. While some outdated home trends are easy to address, there are others that raise a red flag since they could end up being a major expense to update or fix due to heavy construction or health and safety issues. Sutherland faced the shock of discovering old wiring that was a big turnoff. 'A seemingly perfect house revealed its true colors when the inspector uncovered extensive knob-and-tube wiring hidden behind freshly painted walls, a potentially hazardous and budget-busting issue that immediately crossed it off my list,' he says. This experience taught him to look beyond surface-level eyesores, like the examples mentioned above, and focus on critical systems like electrical, plumbing, and foundation integrity. It's critical to hire a professional to do a thorough home inspection. 'In today's competitive market, where move-in ready homes command premium prices, savvy buyers can find value in properties with outdated aesthetics but solid bones, allowing for personalization without breaking the bank on essential repairs,' says Sutherland.

Priceville police charge jailed man with burglary of vehicle
Jan. 29—A Somerville man who broke into a vehicle and stole a purse was already in jail for another burglary when served with an arrest warrant Monday, according to Priceville police. Vince Edward Bramlett, 51, was charged with breaking into and entering a vehicle, a Class C felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison. He is being held in lieu of a $102,500 bond, with the judge noting that "defendant is on bond and pending bond revocation in another case." Officers responded to the report of a burglary of a vehicle at the 1700 block of South Bethel Road on Dec. 30, according to Priceville police, and developed Bramlett as a suspect. "Bramlett was not hard to find," Priceville police said in a statement. According to court records, at the time the warrant was served on Bramlett he was already in the Morgan County Jail for an alleged Jan. 21 burglary of a Somerville home. The victim in that case "was notified by his Ring camera of movement in his home," and used the camera to watch Bramlett walking through his Section Mountain Road home, according to an affidavit by a Morgan County sheriff's investigator. Deputies then used K-9s to track Bramlett to his own home, according to the affidavit. At the time of the alleged Jan. 21 burglary, Bramlett already faced charges for an alleged burglary of a different Section Mountain Road home that took place May 3. Here again he was caught on security video that alerted the absent homeowner, according to a sheriff's investigator's affidavit, and was arrested after a Hartselle police officer performed a traffic stop and confirmed he was wearing the same clothing that had been depicted in the video. The officer observed a Kobalt weed eater and a Kobalt powered blower in the back seat, along with a gas can, according to the affidavit, and all three items had been reported by the homeowner as being stolen. Bramlett was also charged with theft or burglary in 2014 and four times in 2016. — eric@ or 256-340-2435
