Mark Twain Lake, August 31, 2009 - The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Mark Twain Lake Chamber of Commerce are celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the Clarence Cannon Dam and Mark Twain Lake. The event will be held on September 12, 2009 from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. at the Warren G. South Spillway.  Come and listen to music by Regûlarri, look at exhibits, visit the Clarence Cannon Dam power plant visitor area or attend the groundbreaking ceremony for the new M.W. Boudreaux Visitor Center. The groundbreaking ceremony for the visitor center is at 11 a.m. at the Boudreaux Visitor Center site. The 25th Anniversary ceremony will begin at 12:30 p.m. in the Warren G. South Spillway.  The food vendor for the event is the Monroe City VFW. 

        The 25th Anniversary event is reminiscent of the annual get-togethers hosted by the Mark Twain Lake Association during the construction years, to observe and discuss the work accomplished on the construction of the dam and lake. The event will be a time to meet friends, share “stories” and see old photographs, memorabilia and exhibits on display by the Ralls and Monroe County Historical Societies  and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

        Please share these important events with the community. Come to the reunion and see your old friends.
