"Northern Exposure" Road Trip, Presentation, and Concert

What a day!
What an evening!
What a success!
A good crowd showed up for both of our October 25th events! 14 vehicles snaked their way through northern Izard County enjoying Historic and geologic treasures. Around 40 people mounted-up for the Northern Exposure Road Trip...everyone...as far as I could tell...had a great time!
Later that night, 71 people filled the Lunenburg Community Center for an evening with Brian and Jeanette Driscoll. This was the first event to be held in the facility in 25 years! Brian educated us by giving us ideas about historic preservation and letting us know some things we could take advantage of in the process. After his presentation, He and his lovely wife, Jeanette, thrilled us all with a musical experience second to none!

This was a wonderful event! Our Heavenly Father smiled on us giving us good weather and a minimum of flukes. The day and evening were virtually flawless.

We are thankful to Brian and Jeanette who VOLUNTEERED their time and talent for this event, the Arkansas Historic Preservation Program for sending their talented Technical Assistance Coordinator to educate us, the Lunenburg Community Center Association for allowing us to use their facility, our sponsors who made it all possible, and the folks who enjoyed the day and evening with us!

Through this event, we were able to raise $400 for the Lunenburg Community Center Association. Eudell Smith, the overseer of the property, told us it would go a long way in taking care of the painting needed inside the building.

We are honored to be a help to this great organization!
