Knox County Chancellor Daryl Fansler drew a diverse crowd at a reception last evening at Calhouns on the River. Attorneys, Community Activists and at least three area political columnists (E.W. Scripps Shopper/Metro Pulse’s Betty Bean, E.W. Scripps Big Metal Shed on the Hill’s Georgiana Vines and myself) were there to observe and probably report what was seen and heard.

Here are is a view from the first 30 minutes of the reception.

And of course as every one entered the reception, they were greeted by the lovely and personable Phyllis Fansler and the Chancellor.
