Arms Around Arkadelphia '24

During the week of June 10-14, 2024, the annual Arms Around Arkadelphia service projects took place, organized by First Baptist Church of Arkadelphia. As in years past (described here), members of the Arkansas Trial Lawyers Association participated.

I love working with this group. Every year, there is a laser focused mission on getting projects done, which makes a difference every time, no matter the project. The home-cooked meal at lunch each day is also phenomenal.

Another reason I love these projects is the people. Our group had people from northwest Arkansas pitching in to help. The time spent with the ATLA crew is also special:
