Yes, there is some very good footage of Ken talking about the Buffalo and leading a trail building crew. One part is funny because he has the crew heaving a large boulder out of the way. It rolls down to a perfect position and Ken yells, "Great! It looks like it's been there a thousand years!"

Gee, Deb. Next you'll be giving away the ending.

Richard, don't read so much into a single word. DeBo was simply trying to provide the information in a way that was aimed specifically at showing there is an ACC connection to this film, but she could have just as easily said "appear in" or even "make a brief appearance in", instead of "featured in".

The film spends much more time on the roll of the Ozark Society, and specific members like Neil Compton, the Hedges, and yes, Ken Smith, than on any member of the ACC. IMO, the treatment towards those early crusaders (and towards Ken's continued contributions) is very respectful and very professional. Most of the screenings are free - why don't you just go see for yourself?

DeBo, I got this from Larry Foley. We should be able to get a screening in Conway.
Hi Richard;
I would love to do more screenings. Just work with Debbie Doss on setting up a Conway event.
Thank you for your interest.
DVDs will be available for sale at end of this month.

Go check it out if you can.

Debo and Cowper... You guys are stars. Just got back from the Buffalo Flows. It was sold out - wall to wall people. They are also screening it tomorrow around 1 or 2. I have to say I got teary eyed from the first aerial shot of the river. Larry Foley and crew did a beautiful job. To Richard - Ken Smith was there and was honored as one of the unsung heros of the river. s.

Thanks Steph, I'm really glad you liked it. I thought Larry and crew did a great job.

Remember, there will be another showing at the Clinton School in Little Rock this Thursday night Nov. 20th.

We would love to see it. Deb, where is this school at and what time?

Follow the link at the top of this thread. The film is free but seating is limited so you need to make reservations. Call the number listed and ask for directions when you make your reservations.

Oops, didn't see the first post. Made our reservations.

Thanks

I'll be there tonight with my two girls. Want to impress upon them what we have here in Arkansas while their minds are still somewhat plyable. :)

Really enjoyed this last night, reminded me why I love living in Arkansas!
