Due to a forecast that projects cold, windy, and possibly wet weather this Saturday, the Making Magnolia Blossom Big Splash has been tentatively rescheduled for Saturday, April 2, 2016.
This Big Splash had previously been rescheduled from October 24 to this Saturday due to rain.
MMB will continue to seek donations to purchase equipment and supplies. MMB is selling tee-shirts as a fundraiser for $10 that read, “Dirty shirt. Clean city.” To purchase a shirt or to donate to MMB, contact Deana Taylor at 870-235-4922 or DeanaTaylor@SAUmag.edu.
Making Magnolia Blossom is a community-involvement organization at Southern Arkansas University. A group of staff, faculty, and students started MMB in 2014, and more than 500 volunteers from SAU and the community contributed time and effort at the initial Big Splash Saturday event. Since then, MMB has hosted a Spring Edition of Big Splash, as well as several Second Saturday events which partner with area organizations to complete needed projects. MMB has completed dozens of city improvement projects in its first year, and was awarded by the Arkansas Economic Development Commission the Volunteer of the Year Award.
