September 2006

Dear Rotarian,

WELCOME to the Fayrotales newsletter

With the big doings set for this first weekend in September, we will be in a broad spotlight with crowds from out of town and state, and national TV for the ballgame. It is of interest to note a meeting of civic clubs in the city held in September 1948 where Hamilton Moses presented a talk on "Selling Arkansas to the Nation". I think Mr. Moses would be pleased and maybe amazed at our progress on this. But we still need to put our best image out front every chance we get.
