My husband and I ditched the parent&#8217;s weekend a month before in lieu of attending something where we could still visit with our son, who is a Freshman, as well as see some good friends at their 25th reunion.

Susan works hard to help them along with their children, through her charitable efforts. Susan was recently featured on the cover of the November issue of <em>The Tennessee<\/em> <em>Magazine<\/em>.\u00a0 There is not an online version of this remarkable story, so I&#8217;d suggest picking one up or ordering a copy to read more about this life changing endeavor for so many.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4979\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4979\" style=\"width: 288px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/1_Susan-Binkley_Tennessee_casartblog.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4979\" title=\"1_Susan-Binkley_Tennessee_casartblog\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/1_Susan-Binkley_Tennessee_casartblog.jpg\" alt=\"1_Susan-Binkley_Tennessee_casartblog\" width=\"288\" height=\"378\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/1_Susan-Binkley_Tennessee_casartblog.jpg 288w, https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/1_Susan-Binkley_Tennessee_casartblog-228x300.jpg 228w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 288px) 100vw, 288px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4979\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Susan Binkely featured in The Tenneessee Magazine<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>We love so much about what Susan does. She&#8217;s helped over 300 women and their children get back on their feet from drugs and other down trodden situations. She runs three Blue Monarch homes which give these women instructional tools to parent as well as put together and operate a productive business with their granola packets or by working at the Blue Chair. She helps change their lives. Much like the Maker&#8217;s Mark bourbon labels, with every dipper having their signature dip and therefore every bottle is unique, these women are profiled in their granola packets so you can see how worthwhile your money is being spent. We also love the Blue Chair&#8217;s food. There&#8217;s not a better place, particularly for breakfast in Sewanee. Maybe you&#8217;ll see our blue butterflies helping to adorn the walls or even the lovely Blue Chair mural by Lisa Turner. The ambiance is equally as good as the fare. If you&#8217;re passing through Sewanee, please stop by and even purchase some granola to help support this program. Fortunately, if you&#8217;re not able to get there, you can find it online.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4961\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4961\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/1-BlueChair1538_casartblog.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4961 size-medium\" title=\"1-BlueChair1538_casartblog\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/1-BlueChair1538_casartblog-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Giving Blue Monarch butterflies to Susan Binkley of the Blue Chair during Homecoming on casartblog\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/1-BlueChair1538_casartblog-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/1-BlueChair1538_casartblog.jpg 432w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4961\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Giving Blue Monarch Butterflies to Susan Binkley of the Blue Chair<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4962\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4962\" style=\"width: 432px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/2BlueChairMural1552_casartblog.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4962\" title=\"2BlueChairMural1552_casartblog\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/2BlueChairMural1552_casartblog.jpg\" alt=\"The Blue Chair mural by Susan Turner, seen on Slipcovers for your walls, casartblog\" width=\"432\" height=\"324\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/2BlueChairMural1552_casartblog.jpg 432w, https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/2BlueChairMural1552_casartblog-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 432px) 100vw, 432px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4962\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Blue Chair mural by Susan Turner<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4963\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4963\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/3BlueChair1555_casartblog.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4963\" title=\"3BlueChair1555_casartblog\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/3BlueChair1555_casartblog-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Blue Chair in Sewanee, TN, as seen on Slipcovers for your walls, casartblog\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/3BlueChair1555_casartblog-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/3BlueChair1555_casartblog.jpg 432w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4963\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Blue Chair in Sewanee, TN<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Homecoming is a time for catching up with friends, but we were also able to celebrate the honor given to Becca Stevens as this year&#8217;s Most Distinguished Alumni Award.

Becca, an Episcopal Priest and Chaplain for Vanderbilt University, runs a successful program called Magdalene to help abused women find better circumstances.
