Lawrence County's Hero's
Robert E. Lee Armory National Guard Unit's Deployment
County wide honor for the Reservist of the
Robert E. Lee National Guard Unit in Walnut Ridge
performed upon the lawn of the Walnut Ridge County Court House with members of the
Robert E. Lee National Guard Unit in presence receiving our gratification and
honor from all the citizens gathered to see the Hero's of our communities and work places
as they prepare to depart to active duty October 10, 2003.

Be sure to check this space on a photo show of the reception

A Hero's Reception

The community turned out for the reception of the members of the Robert E. Lee Armory National Guard's
that was held at Stewart Park in Walnut Ridge in a effort to show the appreciation and gratitude that
the recent Heroes of Lawrence County has returned unscathed.

The VFW from Pocahontas was present to present the flag at the beginning of the festivities in honor
and appreciation to those who have recently returned from a tour of duty over seas as well as to honor
and remember all members of the Armed Forces that had returned or perished in previous wars
of WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm and now Iraq.

Bro. Dale Huggard, who provided the invocation, summed it up by stating that we were all thankful
to God for his Grace and watchful eye on those who were taken from the community when called to war.
Bro. Huggard also made mention of his and the community's appreciation for a job well done in the
name of Freedom and Democracy on foreign soil as well as a hardy WELCOME HOME!

The festivities began following the role call by the Commander of the Guard Unit and hamburgers, hotdogs
ice cream, drinks and chips were provided for the uniformed men and their families who had also faced
adversity here at home with worry and prayers for the return of their loved ones. The heat of the morning
and afternoon didn't place a damper on activities participated in by the Guard Unit and their families.

Although I missed the afternoons activities and do not have photographs of the three legged race
nor the cow chip toss, I'm sure fun was the order for the day which was evident by the smiles on
the faces of those who attended as well as the men and women who were honored by the day's reception.

All of Lawrence County is relieve to have their brave soldiers back home where they can resume
their family lives and regain their place in the community.

MudStock 06 - Mar 18, 2006
MudStock 06, the first simi annual MudStock at Delaplaine, Arkansas on March 18th, 2006, was a
dirty time success. There were Fords, Dodges, Jeeps, Chevys, ATVs, knee boots and chest high waders
dotting the fields where all the muddy automotive action commenced. Clumps and strings of mud flew through
the air as drivers of all vehicles tested their mechanical rides and their driving skills in the recently dried
fields set up for a day's fun. Trucks that tried to pass through the slough where the mud had been churned
time and time again that resulted in a pit of despair for most vehicles that had to be retrieved from the cold
muddy water by a Ford tractor there for just such occasions. If you missed this year's MudStock 06 be sure
to mark your calendar for next year or watch the local newspaper or keep a ear out for the next MudStock
to be announced later this year once the crops have been harvested.
