Meet Our 2025 Legacy Shores POA Board of directors
Dennis Hanke President
I've been working with the board since we were given control in 2021. I was involved in the transition of the POA transfer with Booker. I'm looking forward to working toward the completion of several of the projects our current board has in process including road repairs, finishing and upgrading the 19 acre land purchase, and the completion with our committee and Lawyers on the revision of the neighborhood covenants which will remove Tennessee Land and Lakes and place total control in the hands of our POA. Our current board has the same goals as me to make improvements here in Legacy shores and keep current assessments from going up. My background is in construction and construction equipment sales which has helped with some of the items were tackled in the past couple years.
Brad Kamber Secretary
Randi and I have enjoyed our gated lakeside community since we first moved to Vonore in 2010. Prior to the management company transferring control to the property owners, I attended and documented their meetings and distributed these notes to the POA. With your support, I was able to continue this by being elected to the board and focus on taking and distributing monthly meeting minutes, decision making in the best interest of all Legacy Shores, ensuring that assets are used carefully and cautiously, and compliance with our CC&Rs and Bylaws. With an IT and Software Engineering background, I also focused on initial setup, administration and maintenance of our Summit Control gate software supporting 230+ gate users, administration of our 24x7x365 NVR CCTV security cameras, our cloud based voting platform used for elections, our shared cloud drive for board documents and files, our Legacy Shores Board email address, and building and deploying our Legacy Shores website. Randi and I enjoy our lake, nature, exercise, reading, restaurants, family, travel, technology, most pets, a warm fire, music, concerts, trying to play the ukulele and being married for 48 years (to each other). Oh, and long walks on the beach. We are grateful for your help and support.
Larry Doran Treasurer
I've been working with the board since we were given control in 2021. I was instrumental in working with Booker to get financial information to review to verify accuracy of financial statements. I am an Accountant/Auditor and was a Division Controller in a fortune 50 company when I retired in 2012.
Sarah Ayers
My husband, Scott, and I relocated here in December 2022 from the northern Virginia area. I am currently working remotely part-time as a personal injury paralegal for my boss of over 20 years. In addition to my duties as a paralegal, I am also the office manager and bookkeeper for his practice, and I assist in managing his commercial building. I also serve as the secretary for the newly formed Tellico Lake American Legion Auxiliary Unit 256. Scott and I love being a part of this community.
Terry Coleman
My wife Lorie and I have lived in Legacy Shores since June 30, 2022, and have really enjoyed this community and its amazing people! Due to a great career opportunity in the electrical industry, we relocated our family of 5 in April 2000 to Maryville, TN from San Diego, California. I retired from the Electrical Training Alliance in January 2024, after 25 years of service, and a total of 46 years of service in the electrical industry. When my wife hasn’t handed me a honey-do list, my hobbies include flying my Cessna 172, riding motorcycles, ATV’s, boating, and working with my telescopes. I am honored to be serving my second year on the Board.
Doug Faragher
My wife Lou and I have lived in Legacy Shores since March of 2013. We moved from Cookeville, TN. We have both been involved in the neighborhood since taking up residence. Legacy Shores has been a lifetime dream of ours. Great neighbors, beautiful lake, and retired life. During the summer, you will find us on the lake or enjoying the view from our deck or dock. Lou and I invite everyone to stop by and say hi.
Adolphus Chester
1 of 4 Board Members @ Large. I’ve been serving as a Board Member since its inception in 2021. My duties are to act as a liaison for the homeowners and co-ordinate thoughts, ideas, etc. between them and the board. My wife’s name is Robin. She and I purchased our lot in 2012. We moved from Knoxville in Feb. of 2020. I graduated from The University of TN School of Architecture, and now I am a retired Architect and General Contractor. I retired in 2017 from managing a Design Build Construction Company in Knoxville where I designed and built light commercial and higher end residential projects. Robin and I feel like we are on vacation everyday living here. We love living here! We feel so fortunate to be a part of such a great neighborhood with the best neighbors. I am also chair person for the ACC committee and we approve all new construction projects.
