Judges meet in Norfork to learn latest in county road, bridge techniques


County judges and road foremen from around Arkansas attended a county road seminar July 14-16, hosted by the County Judges As- sociation of Arkansas in Baxter County’s town of Norfork. Te


highly-worth-


while event was made even better by the or- ganization,


food, officials


cooking skills of Baxter County


and and


employees, who worked hard to give the partici-


pants an extra treat. Te seminar was an intensive


workshop aimed at better equipping county judges and road foremen in county road and bridge construction and maintenance techniques. Judge Joe Bodenhamer of Baxter County played host, and he and


his crew provided first-rate food (grilled steaks, fried fish, coun- try breakfast, etc.) in addition to fellowship and a very educational road seminar.

Madison County Judge Wes Fowler (bottom photo) sports bling and a do-rag (and what’s up with those funky red glasses?) during a Dancing with the Stars event held at Huntsville High School. Even more amazing was the mild-mannered Madison County Clerk, Faron Ledbetter (upper photo), who displayed surprising theatrical skills along with some impressive toe-touching leaps. Ledbetter and partner Katie Crowe were reported to be the crowd favorites at this popular community event. Judge Fowler was partnered with Kaylei Watkins. The fund-raiser helped raise money for students’ tuition costs, scholarships and competitions. All of the concession proceeds were also donated to a great cause – to help defray medical expenses for Kayla Dotson,


a local girl who recently underwent a heart transplant. Photos by Michelle Donahoe for The Madison County Record
