Stuttgart Centennial

The citizens at this time paused and reflected on those pioneers who with sweat and tears gave this community its heritage and traditions.

This memorial recognizes the dedication and efforts of all those who made this Centennial a year to remember and commemorates:

A full year of special events,
A building of national and international friendships
The visiting of a 60 piece youth orchestra from Aalen, West Germany along with Dr. Klaus Lang, the Mayor of Stuttgart, West Germany who presented Stuttgart, Arkansas U.S.A. with a birthday check to be used for this memorial and a perpetual music scholarship to be given to a graduating music student.
