This week the City of Bentonville unveiled their new Airplane Rescue Firefighting truck. This vehicle is designed to handle emergencies involving airplanes and will live at fire station #6 on I St. The ARFF truck was purchased with a grant from the Runway Fund at the recommendation of Steuart Walton.
Congratulations, Krista Cupp, VP, Corporate & Community Affairs at Runway Group for being recognized as one of the “Top 100 Women of Impact.”
“Bentonville, it turns out, is a bit of a Coolsville but, so far as I could see, without a whiff of pretension.”
Local cycling enthusiasts are about to plant signs along some gravel roads in Benton County to encourage respect and safety between riders and farmers. The program will include 76 road signs and three hub signs on gravel cycling routes in the county, according to Runway Group. A hub is the place where cyclists park to start their ride.
Congratulations to Krista Cupp, Runway Vice President of Corporate & Community Affairs, for being named to the Top 100 Women of Impact in Arkansas!
Third-generation heirs of three of the state’s biggest businesses spoke with the Rotary Club of Little Rock Tuesday to discuss the future of Arkansas. Steuart Walton of Walmart, Annemarie Dillard Jazic of Dillards, and John Stephens of Stephens Inc. all moved away from Arkansas, but told the audience they decided to move back and all seemed pleased with their decisions.
Walton said his reason for moving back to the state was wanting to create an impact and help improve his home state.
“The communities that outperform are inevitably communities where resources are being reinvested,” he said.
