Bring your family and experience the USMM before the Experience Fort Smith firework show kicks off at 9:30P!

Proud Gang: At the ceremonial opening of the US Marshals Museum there was a familiar gang who've been conspiring since the beginning - former U.S. Marshal Dick O'Connell and Claude Legris, former director of the Fort Smith Convention & Visitors Bureau; Tracy Winchell, then communications director for the City and Kathy Watson of U.S. Sen. John Boozman's office. Also Judge Jim Spears; former assistant city administrator Dean Kruithof and a few other "usual suspects." I wore this badge in memory of Linda Seubold, also museum supporter emeritus. Get in that door July 1 to see the spectacular museum they helped to dream into existence!
