Volunteers

Our heartfelt thanks go to the individuals and organizations that have volunteered to work on this project. Without their support, this resource would not be available. Every stage of the CALS Encyclopedia of Arkansas has benefited from volunteers providing advice, reviewing and fact-checking entries, providing media, and conducting necessary office work. We have to give a special thanks to Conor Hennelley and Katherine Stanick, who volunteered hundreds of hours working in our offices. They kept us from drowning in a sea of filing and rose to the occasion regardless of the task needed. Also, special thanks to Jerry Blackburn, who developed the original database to house all of the information related to the entries and media. His two-week volunteer project turned into a two-year undertaking. More recently, Kate Buck has volunteered hours of her time each week for filing, fact-checking, and other tasks as needed.
