Ozark Fall Tour The Fall Tour is scheduled for October 25-27, 2013 in Bentonville, Arkansas. Rooms have been reserved at the Simmons Suits in Bentonville, for $79 per night plus tax including breakfast. The phone number is 419-254-7800 and reservation cut off for this rate is October 1, 2013. We are expecting the Ozark s to have beautiful fall colors during our visit. We plan to leave the Quick Trip at 81st Street and Hwy 51 at 8:30 am on October 25 and drive through Wagoner and Tahlequah before the drive north in Arkansas on Hwy 59. Plans have been made to have lunch on your own in Bentonville on the town square before checking into the hotel (check in time is 2:30). The square has a lot of choices for lunch and you will have time to visit the Wal-Mart Visitor Center. The Crystal Bridge s free art museum is very close to the hotel. Saturday morning will be a drive to War Eagle Mill with a short tour and then on to spend the day in Eureka Springs. After we return to the hotel dinner will be together at a Mexican restaurant. Sunday morning after breakfast we will drive back to Tulsa on Hwy 412. If you have questions email or call Rich Robinson or Harold Helton. (Travel Plans for Sooner Club to Tulsa/Bentonville, is still in the planning stage.) 2013 Beauty and the Beast Auction Tuesday September 17 6:30-9:00pm Page 5 This is our major fund raiser.
